The entire Marquis's mansion regrets it? Too late, their little one has become the darling of t

The servant boy, Dafu, looked terrified after hearing this and stammered, "Young Master, this... I... I'm afraid I won't do it well."

“You have to do a good job. You don’t want your sister to be betrothed to that old widower in the backyard, do you?” Xu Xingcai threatened.

Dafu's face turned pale instantly.

He hurriedly pleaded, "Young Master, I will handle this matter perfectly for you. Please don't marry my sister off to Old Ma."

The indentures of their entire family are all in the hands of the madam. The madam has always doted on the eldest son. If the eldest son were to mention his sister's marriage to the madam, then his sister Xiao Fu's life would be ruined.

"That's right. Go quickly and come back quickly." Xu Xingcai looked at him with satisfaction.

Dafu left his courtyard in a daze and went to see his sister.

"Brother, you're acting strange. Did the young master make things difficult for you again?" Xiao Fu looked at him with concern.

"It's nothing, I just have to go out and do some errands for the young master. I'll be back tomorrow." Dafu forced a smile and patted his sister's head.

"You'll be of marriageable age next year, so why don't you hurry up and arrange your marriage? Once you have the betrothal gifts, ask the madam for a favor and ask her to allow you to leave the manor and get married."

"Brother, what happened? Why are you in such a hurry to get me married?" Xiao Fu realized something was wrong.

"It's nothing, just listen to your brother. When Father and Mother come back, tell them what I said. I have to go now." Dafu hugged his sister tightly, then left without looking back.

Xiao Fu had a bad feeling, but she didn't dare to chase after him. She could only watch her brother's departing figure and silently shed tears.

After leaving the Xu family, Dafu went straight to the Xu family's estate outside the city.

The young master gave the order to kill Wang Shun with a single blow.

But he had only ever killed chickens and ducks, never people.

He dare not.

But he had to do it for his sister's sake.

He quickened his pace.

They finally arrived at the village before nightfall.

"Dafu, what brings you here?" Wangshun asked in surprise. "Did the young master give you some instructions?"

"Well, the young master has a secret he wants me to tell you. Let's find a quiet place to talk." Dafu swallowed nervously.

“Okay.” Wang Shun had no doubts and led him to a corner.

He asked anxiously, "Does the young master have any other instructions? Did he say when I can go back?"

"Wangshun, don't blame me. I was forced into it." Dafu closed his eyes and stabbed Wangshun with the dagger hidden in his sleeve.

His attack was so sudden that Wang Shun didn't have time to dodge.

His eyes were filled with disbelief.

He grunted, "The young master told you to do this?"

Shen Lu, the Shen family guard who was secretly following Dafu, was too late to stop him and could only watch helplessly as he stabbed him.

Seeing this, he reacted immediately and rushed over, pulling Dafu away and roaring, "Get the car ready and take him to see a doctor!"

"Who are you?" Dafu was completely stunned, not expecting to be seen committing murder.

"Don't worry about who I am, hurry up! If he dies any later, you'll be in jail!!!" Shen Lu urged, clutching Wang Shun's wound.

"Oh, oh." Dafu seemed to wake up from a dream, threw down the knife in his hand, and hurriedly went to ask the driver of the estate to hitch up the carriage and take Wangshun to see a doctor.

Upon arriving at the town's clinic, the doctor treated Wangshun's wounds, bandaged them, and told them that as long as he could get through the night, Wangshun would not die.

Dafu then realized what was happening, squatted down, covered his face, and burst into tears.

"I'm finished, I'm completely finished. Xiao Fu is finished too. Waaaaaah."

A seven-foot-tall man was crying with tears streaming down his face, a sight that was truly heartbreaking to watch.

“It’s not completely over yet. Tell me what happened, and I’ll give you some advice.” Shen Lu squatted down beside him.

Dafu turned to look at him: "Who exactly are you? Why are you helping me?"

Shen Lu did not hide his purpose for coming and told everyone everything.

“My master has been poisoned and suspects it was your master who did it, so he sent me to keep an eye on the Xu family. You looked flustered after leaving the manor, which was obviously suspicious. So I followed you here.”

He pointed to Wang Shun, who was sleeping soundly in the room, and had already guessed what had happened.

"Was it this kid who poisoned you? Did your master send you to kill someone and silence them?"

Seeing that he knew everything, Dafu gave up struggling and nodded.

He revealed that Xu Xingcai had threatened him with his sister.

“I didn’t want to kill anyone either.” Tears welled up in his eyes again. “But I had no choice. The contracts of our entire family are in the hands of our master. How could I dare disobey his orders?”

Shen Lu patted him on the shoulder.

"You'll come with me to report this to the authorities tomorrow and tell them the whole story. I'll persuade the head of the family to pay to bail out your family members. As for you, you'll probably end up in jail."

"Really? Can you really get my family to leave the Xu family?" Dafu asked, his face a mixture of nervousness and excitement.

"I'm 70% sure, it's up to you whether you're willing to take the gamble." Shen Lu didn't dare to give a complete guarantee.

“Okay, I believe you!” Dafu readily agreed.

The next morning, after Wang Shun woke up, Shen Lu asked him as usual if he was willing to correct Xu Xingcai.

"I'm willing." Wang Shun nodded firmly.

He had no parents and always respected the young master, willingly serving him like a dog.

The young master told him to go east, so he dared not go west.

And what did we get in return?

It was the young master who wanted him dead!

Having received affirmative answers from both of them, Shen Lu paid a young apprentice from the clinic to run back to the Shenfu residence and send a message, asking the head of the family to bring people over.

He had to stay here and watch over the two of them, lest they change their minds and run away.

About an hour later.

The Shen family arrived.

Now they have witnesses, and they also found physical evidence yesterday.

The broken wine jug in the restaurant hadn't been cleaned up yet, and there was still poison left inside.

You can report this to the authorities now.

When Xu Xingcai was brought to the government office, he was completely bewildered until he saw the witnesses standing on the plaintiff's side, and then he immediately realized what was happening.

"You two scoundrels, how dare you betray this young master?!"

The two clenched their fists, not daring to refute.

The lawyer hired by the Shen family was extremely capable. With irrefutable witnesses and physical evidence, the Xu family had no room for argument.

When Xu Liang learned that his son had gone to unnecessary trouble and sent someone to kill the servant who had poisoned him, he was nearly driven mad with anger.

He has arranged everything.

He went to visit the sick Shen Youqian, hoping to find an opportunity to kill the seriously ill man, but his son actually did such a stupid thing.

He decided to give up on him.

There's no point in saving such a stupid son; we might as well use the resources to train our other two sons.

Whether they are legitimate sons or illegitimate sons, they are all his sons, so there is no difference.

With no one to defend or mediate for Xu Xingcai, he had no choice but to go to jail.

Wang Shun, a slave, dared to harm innocent people and was ordered to be beaten to death.

Dafu was so frightened by the verdict that he trembled with fear.

Is he going to die too?
