Quick transmigration to punish scumbags, have a child to inherit everything from them

"Madam Fu, have you brought all the people the princess asked you to bring in?"

As soon as Zhao Yaoyao stepped into the Baiwei Marquis's residence, a maidservant from Princess Fulan's side led her to a secluded corner.

Zhao Yaoyao nodded gently. She looked around to make sure no one was paying attention, and then whispered.

"Yes, I have followed the princess's instructions and secretly brought that special person into the manor. He is currently hiding behind the rockery in the garden."

As Zhao Yaoyao thought about what would happen later, a smug smile appeared on her lips.

"Very well, the princess will reward you handsomely once the deed is done."

After confirming the news, the palace maid did not linger and turned to leave in a hurry, seemingly eager to report the news to Princess Fran.

……

Lu Jingyan had only been gone for a short while when he returned to the small garden where the banquet was being held and saw many people gathered around Liang Qiuli.

Although Liang Qiuli wore a polite smile, Lu Jingyan immediately noticed the forced smile in her eyes, which seemed somewhat stiff.

His heart tightened, and he quickly stepped forward. When the people saw Lu Jingyan coming, they all bowed and made way for him.

"Lili, is it too noisy? How about I take you to a quieter place?"

Lu Jingyan blocked most people's view so that Liang Qiuli could relax a little.

Liang Qiuli felt suffocated by the people who were smiling on the surface but cursing her in their hearts.

She looked up at Lu Jingyan and quickly nodded.

"I'll be taking my leave now."

Without waiting for anyone else to react, Lu Jingyan gently put his arm around Liang Qiuli's shoulder and led her through the crowd toward another secluded garden in the Baiwei Marquis's mansion.

After getting out of their sight, Liang Qiuli took a deep breath and then made a few expressions to ease her stiff face.

"Puch."

Lu Jingyan chuckled as he watched Liang Qiuli make a strange expression, then added.

"With me backing you up, you don't need to give those with ill intentions a friendly look anymore."

Liang Qiuli didn't speak, but she turned around and buried her head in Lu Jingyan's arms, expressing her silent gratitude.

The two then walked hand in hand around a rockery, heading towards a small bridge.

Suddenly, a person darted out from the artificial hill. The person was dressed in coarse cloth, with a ferocious expression on his face. He held a gleaming dagger in his hand and stabbed straight at Lu Jingyan's back.

Qiu Li, with her sharp eyes, pushed Lu Jingyan away before he could react, exposing her back to him.

The man's dagger pierced Liang Qiuli's shoulder blade, causing her to gasp in pain and turn pale instantly.

When Lu Jingyan saw Qiu Li block the sudden attack for him, his heart tightened, but now was not the time to feel sentimental.

He quickly regained his senses, grabbed the man's wrist, twisted it forcefully, forcing the man to release his grip on the dagger, and then kicked the man hard in the chest, knocking him heavily to the ground.

Only then did he look at Liang Qiuli, who was pale and had purple lips, in his arms with a tense expression.

The man was kicked several meters away, but he showed no sign of pain; instead, he burst into laughter.

"Hahaha, General Lu, I never thought you had someone you cared about. Well then, today is the perfect day to let General Lu taste the pain of losing his dearest loved ones!"

Amid the laughter, the man tried to crush the poison in his mouth. Lu Jingyan's eyes sharpened, and he immediately realized the other party's intention. He gestured to Ling Fei, who had just appeared beside him.

Ling Fei flashed forward, grabbed the man's chin, forced him to open his mouth, and made him spit out the poison.

"Quickly fetch the imperial physician, and take this man away for a thorough interrogation."

Seeing that the blood flowing from Liang Qiuli's shoulder had turned purple, Lu Jingyan became increasingly anxious. After giving Ling Fei urgent instructions, he carried her towards a small house not far away.
