Confiscating property? A stunningly beautiful substitute bride empties the national treasury and is

The exiled men trembled with fear as they stared at the assassin's corpse in the woods. Thank goodness the assassin was after Lu Jingchuan; if he had been after them, they would have been dead countless times over…

Outside the carriage, Li Cong had already ridden over with a whip to drive them away. Lu Jingchuan knew that Sun Wuyin was doing this on purpose, wanting to see if he could kill him and then torment his family.

He quickly got up and, limping, stood at the front to block Li Cong's advance. Facing Li Cong's attempt to drive him away, Lu Jingchuan calmly said:

"Either you stay and wait, or you go first and we'll catch up later. In any case, our carriage can't move until my sister-in-law gives birth!"

Wang Beimu rushed over and pleaded, "Sir, childbirth is so difficult for this woman, and now she's being exiled. It's practically a matter of life and death. Please be lenient; after all, every family has elderly parents and young children..."

"Get out of my way! You're pleading for mercy? You're all a bunch of exiles, your lives are as worthless as ants. What right do you have to negotiate?"

Li Cong stared at him, scanning him up and down, and then gave a wild laugh.

"you…"

Wang Beimu clenched his fists in anger, gritting his teeth, wishing he could punch this arrogant bastard to death.

Lu Jingchuan was worried that he would act impulsively and cause trouble, so he went up to stop him. The Wang family was helping him, and he was already very grateful. How could he implicate them?

Looking at the frustrated group, Li Cong's eyes flashed with a sense of satisfaction. Power was indeed a wonderful thing. He raised an eyebrow and chuckled, arrogantly issuing his command:

"Either leave right now, or you'll get a taste of my whip and see if your bones are tougher or my whip is more vicious!"

After roaring, Li Cong immediately cracked his whip. He already knew that too many people wanted Lu Jingchuan dead, so he didn't need to hold back.

What is Song Qingqian? Can she be compared to thousands of assassins? No wonder Sun Wuyin is always so carefree; it turns out he doesn't even need his own people to kill them.

Seeing the whip coming down, Lu Yunqi quickly protected the two sisters and the child.

Lu Jingchuan caught the whip that Li Cong swung at him with his bare hands. With a little force, Li Cong was pulled off his horse and rolled on the ground, his head bleeding profusely.

The soldiers behind him were stunned. They dared not approach or rescue Li Cong from a distance, and the situation remained deadlocked.

Li Cong struggled to get up, wanting to curse, but found that the whip in his hand had somehow ended up in Lu Jingchuan's hand.

Lu Jingchuan lashed out with his whip, striking Li Cong, who screamed in agony…

The soldiers behind him became even more timid. This was a former war god general. If he wanted to kill them, it would be a matter of minutes. It was more important to save their lives.

Lu Jingchuan looked at Da Hu with a sinister expression and said, "Go tell Sun Wuyin that either the whole team should rest and wait, or leave a few people to guard the area. We won't move until the child is born!"

"Yes Yes Yes!"

Da Hu nodded hastily, rode off on his horse, and good heavens, Lu Jingchuan's eyes were terrifying.

Upon hearing Da Hu's report, Sun Wuyin angrily cursed, "A bunch of useless trash! They can get beaten up by exiles and are howling in pain. Aren't they ashamed?"

Da Hu lowered his head and dared not refute, thinking to himself that these were no ordinary exiles. Sun Wuyin was just talking, but they were really going to fight. How could they be the same?

Sun Wuyin was annoyed for a moment. He knew Lu Jingchuan's temper and knew that if things really got out of hand, he would definitely not come out on top.

Don't be fooled by the number of people in the group; the rest of them are all good-for-nothings who only think about what to eat and which woman to marry. None of them can handle anything.

After a while, he ordered, "We'll rest two miles away. They must catch up within an hour, or I'll report them to the court for fleeing!"

"My subordinate understands!"

Da Hu nodded hurriedly and rode back.

Basin after basin of bloody water was being carried out, and Lu Jingchuan's hot water supply couldn't keep up.

Seeing that Bai was about to have a hemorrhage, Song Qingqian quickly took out hemostatic pills and medicine to restore her strength from her space and gave them to her, patiently comforting her.

The old lady fainted from fright at the sight of so much blood. Wang was also terrified; her heavy body trembled uncontrollably. She spoke in a trembling voice, still shaken:

"Young Lady Lu, I...I can't take it anymore...my legs are weak..."

This was the first time she had ever seen so much blood loss during childbirth; it could be fatal, and could even result in the death of both mother and child…

Song Qingqian quickly grasped her hand and reassured her, "Auntie, don't panic, you can do it!"

"I…"

The burly Wang was so embarrassed that she was almost crying.

With one arm around Bai Shi and the other pressing on her stomach, Song Qingqian calmly looked up and instructed Wang Shi:

"Auntie, you're so capable, please help me out!"

Wang hardened her heart, gritted her teeth, and nodded: "It's just childbirth, right? Move aside, I'll massage her!"

Seeing Bai Shi's somewhat unfocused gaze, Wang Shi patted her face hard again and said:

"Either you and your unborn child die, or you and your child live. You choose."

"Bai, think about your two children outside. If you die, they will be orphans. How can you face your husband and your two children?"

"I'll count to three, you push, and I'll push too."

Bai nodded, panting, "Okay, I...I'll try!"

"Yes, adjust your breathing!"

"I'm starting to count, one, two, push!"

After Wang finished speaking, Bai used all her strength and immediately felt her stomach lighten, and her whole body relaxed.

"Out!"

"Wow…"

Although the little one had been holding it in for a long time, it still let out a very loud cry as soon as it landed.

Song Qingqian carefully cut the bandage on her body, wiped away the bloodstains, and wrapped her in a small blanket she had made beforehand.

Wang exclaimed with delight, "It's a girl! Look how long her hair is; she must have been very well cared for in the womb!"

"Oh, I dream of having a daughter!"

Song Qingqian wrapped up her youngest daughter and placed her beside Bai Shi. Bai Shi weakly raised her hand and stroked her youngest daughter's cheek, then smiled and cried.

Wang said with emotion, "Why are you crying? Mother and daughter are safe and sound. This is a wonderful thing."

Song Qingqian managed to wake the old lady up. When the old lady opened her eyes and saw that the child had been born, she gratefully grasped Bai's hand.

"Good, it's good that she's given birth. Your mother-in-law will take care of the baby from now on, and we will definitely raise her."

Seeing this incredibly heartwarming moment with her family, Wang quietly withdrew, deciding not to get involved as an outsider.

In a short while, the two Lu sisters and their two children crowded around, and Song Qingqian also stepped back.

The two Lu brothers had been waiting downstairs. When they saw Song Qingqian come out, Lu Jingchuan hurriedly asked, "How is sister-in-law?"

"Mother and daughter are safe!"

Song Qingqian smiled and said, "Go boil some more hot water. I'll help my sister-in-law wash up before she changes her clothes."

Lu Yunqi nodded and went to add more firewood first. Song Qingqian bypassed Lu Jingchuan and directly called out to Wang Shi, who was about to leave.
