The whole family was brutally murdered? The ruthless heiress's eldest daughter went berserk aft

Commander Xin You's eyes flashed with the fire of hatred.

"Liu Dong, remember your place. I, Xin Youcai, am the commander here. I'll make the decisions here. I'll handle things with *** myself. You don't need to interfere. She's just a peasant girl from the border. Even if I kill her, what can Gu Ye do to me?"

When Murong Xuewei heard the name Xin You, a hint of surprise appeared in her eyes!

In his past life, it was he who led troops to ambush Gu Ye and secretly poisoned him, which led to Gu Ye's defeat.

Murong Xuewei never expected to meet him here.

The soldier named Liu Dong was about to say something when Xin You shoved him aside.

"The General's wife, is that it? Your good days are over," Xin You said with a sneer, his voice full of sarcasm.

Murong Xuewei suppressed her fear and straightened her back.

Murong Xuewei's cold gaze met Xin You's directly, and she said calmly, "You dare?"

Xin You gripped the hilt of the knife tightly, gritting her teeth as she said, "Your husband, Gu Ye, has caused me so much suffering. You will pay some of the interest on this debt for him first, and then I will go and pay Gu Ye the rest!"

Murong Xuewei was startled, but she remained calm on the surface.

Murong Xuewei secretly pondered how to escape, while simultaneously trying to stall Xin You, "Wait, you said my husband ruined you, is it really him? Who knows if you're making that up."

Xin You snorted coldly, "I was originally an Imperial Guard, about to be promoted to Commander of the Imperial Guards, but your husband, Gu Ye, not only caused me to lose my position, but also everything else. My current predicament is all thanks to him!"

Upon hearing this, Murong Xuewei felt a little resentful towards Gu Ye.

Why does Gu Ye have enemies everywhere he goes?

Murong Xuewei pleaded gently, "Commander Xin, perhaps there's some misunderstanding. My husband is an upright man and would never harm anyone without reason. Why don't you release me? I'll go back and explain things to him properly, and I'm sure we can clear up this misunderstanding."

Xin You sneered, "Misunderstanding? Hmph, you two are both equally deceitful. Do you think I'd believe that? You won't leave here alive today!"

Liu Dong, who had been pushed aside, listened to their conversation and had a bad feeling. He stepped forward again.

Liu Dong glanced at Murong Xuewei, then at Xin You, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Commander, if she really is General Gu's wife, it might affect the ***'s plans."

Xin You frowned, then kicked Liu Dong away. "Didn't you understand what I just said? Whatever happens, I'll take responsibility over there. It's none of your business to interfere."

Xin You used all his strength in that kick, sending Liu Dong flying from inside the house to outside, nearly breaking a rib.

Liu Dong clutched his chest where a rib had broken, glanced in Xin You's direction, immediately turned and left, running quickly towards the main house where Xiao Wan Ning was.

Meanwhile, in a grove of trees outside the villa, Liuli anxiously awaited her mistress.

Liuli kept glancing towards the villa, her heart filled with worry.

"Why hasn't Madam come out yet?" Liuli muttered to herself, her brows furrowed. "Could something have happened?"

Suddenly, a commotion arose from inside the villa.

Liuli's heart tightened, and she thought to herself, "Oh no, Madam may be in trouble."

Liuli immediately wanted to climb over the wall to take a look, but just as her hand touched the wall, she remembered Murong Xuewei's instructions before she went in.

If I act rashly like this, it may bring greater danger to the lady.

Finally, Liuli made up her mind, "I have to hurry back to the city to find the general, only he can save the lady."

With gritted teeth, Liuli quietly descended the mountain under the moonlight, arrived at the place where the carriages were kept, untied the carriage frame from the back of the horse, mounted the horse, and galloped towards the city.

The sound of horses' hooves gradually faded into the night, leaving only a trail of dust.

Liu Dong ran breathlessly to Xiao Wan Ning, knelt on one knee, and reported, "***, we have captured a woman who claims to be the general's wife. Commander Xin You wants to kill her, but I am worried that it will affect your plans, so I have come to ask for your instructions."

Xiao Wanning frowned slightly upon hearing this. After a moment of contemplation, she asked, "The General's wife? She herself said she was the General's wife?"

Liu Dong nodded and replied, "Exactly."

A glint of light flashed in Xiao Wan's eyes, and she stood up. "Take me to see."

When Xiao Wanning arrived, Xin You raised his knife, ready to slit Murong Xuewei's throat.

Xiao Wan Ning stepped forward and slapped Xin You across the face, followed by a kick.

"A mere commander dares to lay a hand on the general's wife? You don't want your life, do you?!"

Xin You was kicked to the ground, his head bowed and his teeth clenched as he knelt before Xiao Wan Ning. "Your Highness, please forgive me. I thought she was lying, which is why I hit her."

Xiao Wan Ning snorted coldly and stepped on Xin You's knee. "Xin You, don't think I don't know what you're thinking. Since you've become my dog, you should be prepared to act like one. Don't think about overstepping my bounds."

Xin You held Xiao Wan Ning's foot with one hand, as if afraid that she would fall. "Your Highness is right. It was I who overstepped my bounds."

Xiao Wanning removed her foot from Xin You's knee and turned to look at the bound Murong Xuewei.

"A bunch of idiots! You dare to tie up Madam Murong? How many of you have enough heads to chop off?" Xiao Wan Ning said coldly to the group of soldiers standing there. "Why aren't you untying Madam Murong yet?"

Upon hearing Xiao Wanning's instructions, Liu Dong hurriedly stepped forward to untie Murong Xuewei and had a chair brought over and placed behind her.

Xiao Wan Ning's lips curled into her signature smile. "I didn't know that Madam Murong had a penchant for sneaking into the manor at night?"

Murong Xuewei glanced at it, rubbing her reddened wrist, "That still can't compare to Her Highness the Princess, who actually has a truly magnificent manor deep in these mountains and forests."

"This is just a little hobby of mine. How can it compare to Madam Murong, the richest woman in the Taichu Kingdom, whose businesses span four countries and three continents?"

Xiao Wanning suddenly leaned close to Murong Xuewei and asked, "I wonder what other plans Madam Murong has in mind when she sneaked into my summer resort at night?"

Murong Xuewei raised her head, looked directly into Xiao Wanning's eyes, and retorted, "***, I'd like to ask you, what exactly are you trying to do by making weapons in this desolate wilderness? Are you planning a rebellion?"

A hint of surprise flashed in Xiao Wan Ning's eyes, but she quickly regained her composure.

Xiao Wan Ning chuckled and said, "Madam Murong is indeed clever. You've figured it out. Since you've already guessed it, why not join us? With the wealth of your Murong family, plus my military strength and power, you're sure to achieve great things in our endeavors."
