"stop!"

A loud cry was heard from outside the prison. It was Xiao Yu who was stumbling into the prison, supported by Xie Leifeng. He did not expect to see a scene that made him tremble with fear.

What he saw before him seemed to overlap with the scene in his previous life when Xiao Xuetang ordered the extermination of the entire Hou Mansion and personally killed his father.

He thought that by living again, he could make up for what he owed to Xiao Xuetang. He went to Jingzhao Prefecture to file a complaint on behalf of Xiao Xuetang, thinking that he could prevent Xiao Xuetang from repeating the mistakes of her previous life. However, he never expected...

Xiao Yu was already seriously injured and almost fainted. Xie Leifeng was also shocked and said, "Tangtang, what are you doing with the knife? Be careful not to cut yourself."

Xiao Xuetang was originally in a trance, but came back to his senses when he heard the voices of Xiao Yu and Xie Leifeng.

Seeing Xiao Yu's pale and terrified face, he sneered, "I was just joking. Did you think I really wanted to kill him?"

Xiao Yu had a gloomy face and said nothing, his eyes looking at Xiao Xuetang's hand holding the knife...

The tip of the knife had penetrated Xiao Yi's purple court robe, oozing out traces of blood.

how come--

Xiao Xuetang was shocked at first, and threw the knife away with a clang, like a cat that got into trouble. He looked guilty, but pretended to be calm as he looked at Xiao Yu and said, "I was just joking. I feel bad about dirtying my hands by killing him."

The calmer her face became, the more she wondered in her heart...

At that moment just now, it was as if her body was out of control. She forgot everything and became bloodthirsty!

Xiao Shiqi, who was holding Xiao Yi, thought that Xiao Xuetang was just trying to scare Xiao Yi, but he didn't expect that Xiao Xuetang really wanted to kill Xiao Yu...

If Xiao Yu had not arrived in time and stopped Xiao Xuetang, the consequences would have been disastrous.

Xiao Yi had just walked through the gates of hell...

He had been to the battlefield, but at that moment just now, the look in Xiao Xuetang's eyes made him feel creepy.

After surviving the calamity, it seemed as if his entire soul was trembling. All this actually confirmed the prophecy of the sorcerer in the past - this child was born to be his nemesis!

Xiao Yi seemed to be frightened out of his wits. He grabbed Xiao Yu's sleeve and said incoherently, "Xiao Yu, this evil creature has gone crazy... She not only framed my father, but also wanted to kill him. She wants to harm the entire Marquis' Mansion! Report everything that happened in the Heavenly Prison today to His Majesty..."

Xiao Yu was already injured, and when Xiao Yi pulled him like that, he staggered and nearly fell.

Xiao Xuetang came back to his senses and said coldly, "Marquis Yong'an, you may have asked the wrong person..."

"The one who submitted evidence against Xu Ming to Jingzhao Prefecture to file a complaint was the Crown Prince whom you carefully nurtured. You said I killed my father, but isn't he the same?!"

Xiao Yu's face turned pale, and Xiao Yi's face was chapped...

"Xiao Yu, you have been living in luxury since you were a child, why did you learn to be a rebel from her?"

Xiao Yi pointed at Xiao Xuetang angrily, but when he met Xiao Xuetang's gaze, his eyes flashed and he felt a chill and pain in his chest, as if Xiao Xuetang had really poked a hole in him. He subconsciously withdrew his finger from pointing at Xiao Xuetang.

Xiao Shiqi, who was standing by, was stunned.

He was ordered by Lin Xun to supervise the trial of Marquis Yong'an and to help Qi Yusheng, mainly because he was worried that someone would take advantage of the chaos to rescue the prisoner.

But the Marquis of Yong'an was much more stubborn than him. As soon as he entered the Tianlao of the Jijianyuan, he kept saying that they had no right to detain him because he was of noble birth. He also accused Lin Xun of framing a loyal and good person.

Qi Yusheng was so angry that he wanted to torture him, but was stopped by Xiao Shiqi.

There are countless eyes watching the case of Yong'an Marquis Mansion. Once Xiao Yi is injured, someone with ulterior motives can find evidence of him and accuse him of being tortured into confessing by the Procuratorate.

Therefore, even though Xiao Yi was imprisoned, he was not as uneasy as Ye Jin. Instead, he looked fearless!

At that time, Xiao Shiqi felt itchy and wanted to hand this cunning old man over to the secret guards of the palace for trial...

The safekeeping would allow Xiao Yi to confess how much private silver he had hidden, and no one would be able to see any injuries, but he was also worried that Xiao Yi was too cunning and would not tell the truth.

But when Xiao Shiqi saw Xiao Yi being angry but not able to say anything towards Xiao Xuetang, he felt that there was no need to go through so much trouble. This Miss Xiao was completely Xiao Yi's nemesis!

Putting aside Xiao Shiqi's secret thoughts, Xiao Xuetang had already retracted her gaze and said to Xiao Yi with a smile, "Father, take good care of yourself in this prison. Your daughter will definitely come to visit you often."

As Xiao Xuetang was speaking, he bent down to pick up the knife that had fallen on the ground. Xiao Yi subconsciously stepped back a few steps and looked at Xiao Xuetang warily...

Xiao Xuetang smiled slightly, as if she was laughing at Xiao Yi's timidity. Under Xiao Yi's angry and gloomy gaze, she wiped the blood off the tip of the knife and returned it to its original place.

Xiao Yi had always thought that Xiao Xuetang was a beautiful but useless person, but now it seems that he was wrong. Xiao Xuetang was vindictive and did not follow common sense. What was even more terrifying was that she had no scruples.

The daughter of a marquis who was dignified and polite in the eyes of the world in the past was actually extremely crazy at heart, and could even do crazy things that would destroy her family and her clan.

Xiao Yi was really scared, but he still insisted. Before Xiao Xuetang left, he looked at her back and threatened her: "Xiao Xuetang, think about your mother..."

He wanted to use Xie's family to threaten Xiao Xuetang and Xiao Yu, brother and sister, to make them afraid to act rashly!

Xiao Xuetang paused, turned around and looked at Xiao Yi...

This was the deepest part of the prison in the Jujianyuan. It was cramped and dimly lit. Xiao Yi was wearing a blood-stained robe and his hair was not as neat as it was at the beginning. In the darkness, he seemed to be half human and half ghost.

Those eyes that sparkled with ambition seemed to be filled with a rotten aura...

Corresponding to him is Xiao Xuetang.

Only a faint ray of light shone in through the gap, and even the light seemed to favor this child, falling right on her.

Light and shadow are separated, one rots in the darkness, but the other grows towards the sun...

"Marquis Yong'an, you divorced my mother seventeen years ago."

With a loud bang, it was like a bolt of thunder directly struck the crown of Yong'an Hou's head. He swayed and looked at Xiao Xuetang in disbelief.

Seventeen years ago...

In order to stay with Ye Nan forever, he wrote a divorce letter in his own handwriting, but the old marquis took the letter away because Xie was pregnant.

That divorce letter...

"Yes, the divorce letter is in my hand now."

Xiao Xuetang said calmly, "My Lord, you have always been cautious in your actions. The divorce agreement has all the signatures of the clan elders and the official seals. So now, as long as my mother signs her name, she will have nothing to do with you from now on."

Xiao Yi staggered while holding his injured chest...

At this moment, blood oozed out from his torn wound. For a moment, Xiao Yi had an illusion in a trance.

This was the arrow he shot seventeen years ago, but now it was stuck in his chest!

The prison soon returned to its deathly silence. After an unknown amount of time, footsteps were heard. Xiao Yi turned his back to the door without turning his head. He just spoke in a hoarse voice, "I want to see the Regent."

But after not hearing a reply for a long time, Xiao Yi turned around and saw that the person who appeared in front of the Tianlao of the Jijianyuan was Wang Xian!

Wang Xian stared at Xiao Yi with his dark eyes and asked sinisterly, "What does Yong'an Hou want to exchange for a glimmer of hope with the Regent?"
