The Rise of a Farm Girl
Chapter 72 Jiang Mansion Receives a Hunting Order
Mr. Jiang quickly sent someone to find the prefect in the city and asked him to send some soldiers to search the city.
The prefect was a man who would not do anything without profit, and Master Jiang knew it, so he quickly asked the butler to get 20,000 taels of silver and then send the red coral in the warehouse to the prefect.
After receiving the order, the butler hurriedly called two servants and went to the warehouse to carry the corals.
When the butler came to the warehouse and took the key from his sleeve pocket, before he took out the key, one of the servants asked why the butler's warehouse was not locked.
The butler was old and his eyesight was a little blurry. After hearing what the servant said, he looked towards the door. This sight frightened him so much that he quickly opened the door.
As soon as the door was opened and he looked into the storeroom in the light of the torch, the butler was so frightened that his legs went weak and he sat down on the ground.
There was nothing left in the warehouse, not even a straw. The whole warehouse was empty, and the housekeeper became more and more scared. He asked the two servants beside him to support him and walked towards Mr. Jiang's study.
Arriving at the door of the study, the housekeeper knocked on the door tremblingly. Mr. Jiang was in a daze in the study because everything in the study was gone. Not even a chair was left for him.
When Master Jiang heard the knock on the door, he came to his senses and hurried over to open the door. There were two servants guarding outside the study. Master Jiang shook the collars of them desperately and said, "You said that something in my study was taken away. Did you two steal it?"
The two servants were so scared that they wet their pants. They quickly knelt on the ground and begged for mercy. Master, please kill me! The two of us stayed outside the study and never left.
I didn’t know how the things inside disappeared, and no one moved anything out.
The two servants banged their heads against each other, and soon big lumps appeared on their foreheads and the skin was broken.
When the housekeeper saw that the master's study was empty, he quickly knelt on the ground and said, "Master, this is bad. The warehouse is empty. All the things have been stolen."
After hearing this, Master Jiang spat out a mouthful of blood and fainted. As soon as he fainted, the wives and concubines in the mansion came running over crying, shouting, "Grandpa, you must make the decision for me!"
Everything in my room was lost. Some people even cried and said that the bed in my room was gone.
My Lord, how am I going to live from now on? These ladies and concubines are arguing with each other, chattering non-stop.
The master, who was in a coma, was awakened. After waking up and listening, he vomited blood again and fainted.
This time, the concubines stopped crying and rushed into the house in a hurry, but they found that there was not even a bed in the house.
A concubine once said that although the bed in my room was a little worn out, it was not lost.
So the group carried the master to the concubine's courtyard and quickly called for the court doctor.
After the court physician gave the patient a thorough treatment, he became furious and wrote a prescription and left.
Madam, the housekeeper was very worried when he saw the prescription. Not only did he not have the money to buy the medicine, but he even lost the casserole in the kitchen. Madam cursed the thief in her heart, saying that he stole gold and silver, but he would not steal the casserole for cooking medicine.
Wang Jingru, who was running away, sneezed loudly. If Wang Jingru knew that the wife of the Jiang family scolded him and even stole the main casserole, she would definitely refute, "I don't have time to check. I went into the kitchen and cleaned it up. I didn't see anything! Besides, I don't have time to watch it!"
Mrs. Jiang really had no choice but to take out the hairpin on her head, hand it to the housekeeper, and ask him to get some medicine for the master and buy a clay pot.
At this time, another servant came to report that the young master's wound was severely swollen. There was no money to buy medicine, and the young master was furious in the room. He didn't want to live anymore and wanted to commit suicide.
The lady started to cry again after hearing this. My son would rather die than live! How can he seek death and rebirth?
The lady ran to the young master's yard again. She had never gone back and forth like this before. She always walked with square steps. She always acted like a lady in the past, but now she didn't care about that anymore and she even jogged.
Not only was his situation in chaos, but Master Jiang's two brothers were also in chaos. Wang Jingru had robbed the entire underworld, and their situation was not much better. The two masters were so angry that they vomited blood.
When it was bright, Master Jiang woke up and asked his butler to get some silver from the store. Then he arranged things. The silver was taken out but not sent to the prefect.
After waking up, he went to his son and learned what had happened. He was raped by a man because he robbed the woman next to the man and brought her into the house, which led to this situation.
The things in the mansion might have been stolen by these two people. I didn't know who these two people were, so I went to the inn to ask and found that they had left the city.
How could Mr. Jiang suffer such a huge loss in silence? He took the banknotes and went to Tianyi Pavilion. Tianyi Pavilion specialized in taking murder business. Once Tianyi Pavilion accepted the business, the person being hunted would be hunted to death.
Wang Jingru and Xuanyuan Lei didn't know that they had been locked in by Tianyi Pavilion. They were still hurrying on their way, but this time they were no longer as leisurely as before.
The road was too unsafe. Wang Jingru had only been traveling for a few days and there were bandits and bullies everywhere. She wanted to get back quickly.
The two men traveled day and night, and the killers from Tianyi Pavilion searched again and again but could not find out their names.
It was simply that the Jiang family provided too little information, and Xuanyuan Lei and Wang Jingru did not reveal their identities.
But it was discovered that the two had already left the city and seemed to be heading east, perhaps to the imperial city, because the waiter said that the two had extraordinary conversation skills.
The killers hurriedly chased in the direction of the imperial city. When they got there, Wang Jingru and Xuanyuan Lei had already entered the imperial city and returned to their own residences.
The killer chased to the imperial city and returned to Tianyi Pavilion in the imperial city to search for a man and a woman who had recently returned to the imperial city.
Tianyi Pavilion is spread all over the place, and even in the other three countries, there are branches of Tianyi Pavilion.
Tianyi Pavilion is very powerful and has trained countless assassins. As long as you can afford it, Tianyi Pavilion can do it for you.
It was easy for Tianyi Pavilion to investigate such a matter. They soon found out that Princess Jingru and Prince Xuanyuan Lei had just returned to the imperial city two days ago.
Tianyi Pavilion confirmed the matter and found out which direction they came from.
Tianyi Pavilion was in a bit of a dilemma. After all, they were members of the royal family. If they accepted the job, the commission would have to be multiplied several times.
So Tianyi Pavilion asked Jiang Mansion for two million taels of silver. Otherwise, they would have interrupted the assassination.
Mr. Jiang was so angry that he sold all his properties and took out the silver that he had previously deposited in the manor. He barely managed to collect two million taels of silver.
She was sent to Tianyi Pavilion, and the killer from Tianyi Pavilion assassinated Wang Jingru at night.
The killers were divided into two groups. Two killers were sent to the Wang Mansion, and one killer was sent to kill Wang Jingru. They thought that Wang Jingru was a woman and did not have much ability, so one killer would be enough.
So this man was also very arrogant. He went to the room where Wang Jingru lived, sprinkled a handful of sleeping pills, jumped in through the window, and took a sword to kill Wang Jingru.
Before the sword reached Wang Jingru, she threw the drug in her hand and dodged it. The killer didn't know what was thrown at him, and he dodged quickly.
The killer inhaled some drugs and passed out. If it was a normal drug, it would have no effect on the killer. They were trained from a young age and were all raised in drugs.
This drug comes from the Medical Valley. It is a strengthened version. Ordinary people will fall into coma if they get a little bit of it. Martial artists will also fall into coma if they inhale too much.
The killer was unconscious, so Wang Jingru put him into the space. Wang Jingru also entered the space, splashed water on the killer to wake him up, and asked the bandit leader to take out the poison sac from the killer's teeth.
Only then did they begin to interrogate the killer. When the killer saw Wang Jingru, he wanted to kill her, but when he moved, he found that his hands and feet were out of control.
It was as if he was being controlled. He wanted to resist but couldn't. Wang Jingru asked him, "Tell me, what's going on? Who sent you to kill me?"
If you don't tell me, I have many ways to torture you. This killer has been trained since childhood, and the first rule is loyalty and never betrayal.
But the person he met was Wang Jingru, so he had to tell the story even if he wanted to. Wang Jingru asked the bandit leader to tie him up, found a feather, and tickled the soles of his feet, torturing the killer until he screamed. The killer shouted loudly, "Kill me if you have the guts."
How can you be called a hero for using such despicable means? Wang Jingru was so angry that she stood in front of the killer condescendingly and said in a teasing tone, "I'm not a gentleman, I'm just a woman."
If you don't want to talk, then don't talk. I won't force you. So the feather tickled the bandit leader, torturing him to the point where he was worse off than dead.
Seeing that he still didn't say anything, Wang Jingru ordered the bandit leader to get some feces. When the killer smelled the foul-smelling feces in the bucket, he vomited even the overnight meal.
Pointing at Wang Jingru, you are so cruel! Then Wang Jingru said something that made the killer doubt his life: feed him a spoonful of feces, remember not to let him die.
The killer couldn't stand it, so he knelt down and kowtowed to Wang Jingru. I said, "I'll tell you everything. Please, aunt, please forgive me and give me a quick death."
Then the killer told Wang Jingru everything in detail. After that, he kowtowed to her and begged her, "Princess, please let me go quickly. Even if you let me go, Tianyi Pavilion will not let me go."
Wang Jingru said, "I have no intention of letting you go. Since you have entered my territory, just work here!"
Wang Jingru looked at the two bandit leaders in charge and said, assign them some work and let them do more.
The killer knelt down and kowtowed. He would do anything as long as he was not tortured like this. I have never seen such an interrogation of a person. It makes people doubt their lives. It is more painful than killing him.
Wang Jingru had left the space, so he had to be prepared in advance. He was not afraid of these killers, but his family was afraid!
She was afraid that the killer would get angry and take his family out on him. Just when she was anxious, Xuanyuan Lei came. The first thing she did was to see if anyone in the mansion was injured.
At first glance, everyone in the mansion was safe, because Wang Laosan and his wife were sleeping soundly, and Wang Laotou and his wife were also sleeping soundly.
Only the light was on in Wang Jingru's room. Xuanyuan Lei knocked on the door a few times. Wang Jingru said, "Who?" Xuanyuan Lei said, "Me."
Wang Jingru then let the person in. The little maid outside the door had already been knocked unconscious by the killer. She was lying by the door, leaning against it and sleeping.
Wang Jingru let Xuanyuan Lei in and then started talking about what happened today. Xuanyuan Lei said that two assassins came to my house and were killed by me.
There was no interrogation. Wang Jingru said that I did find out that these people were killers from Tianyi Pavilion and they had accepted an assassination mission.
They were hired by Mr. Jiang of Jiang Mansion in Xishui City. It seems that we were too kind to them. We just let them go without causing any casualties to them. Sister, you don't have to worry about this matter. I will take care of it for you.
Xuanyuan Lei knew what happened, and he was also very worried about his adoptive parents, so he hurried back to the mansion to arrange secret guards, and arranged some more secret guards to go to Xishui City. Xuanyuan Lei planned to send some assassins to destroy all the Jiang Mansion in Xishui City.
At the same time, a lot of secret guards were arranged to protect themselves in time. This arrangement found that the secret guards were not enough, so Xuanyuan Lei went to the palace again to meet the emperor.
The emperor found it strange because his nephew seldom came to the palace. Whenever he asked someone to invite him to come, he would always make excuses saying he had no time.
He took the initiative to come to the palace today, which aroused the emperor's interest. Lei'er came to the emperor's uncle, is there something going on?
Xuanyuan Lei bowed to the emperor, sat on the chair and said to the emperor, "Uncle, I was assassinated by the assassins of Tianyi Pavilion yesterday. Fortunately, I was lucky enough to escape."
The emperor stood up after hearing this and was very worried. But he was injured. Xuanyuan Lei shook his head and said, "I was not injured. The secret guards in my mansion found it in time. If it was a little later, I would have lost my life."
This time I came to see Uncle Huang to ask him for a few secret guards.
The emperor quickly called over more than 30 secret guards and said, "From today on, you will protect the prince and stay with him. You must ensure his safety. If you fail to do your job well and cause the prince to be injured, you will be beheaded."
These secret guards followed Xuanyuan Lei out of the palace, and Xuanyuan Lei sent four more people to Wang Jingru to protect her safety.
Wang Jingru said she didn't want anything and asked these people to protect her parents, grandparents, and her two brothers.
Xuanyuan Lei assigned these four people to Wang Youliang and Wang Youjin. These two people also knew about the assassination in Tianyi Pavilion.
Normally, these two people would not go to places where there were few people. They were very cautious wherever they went. When they slept in the mansion, they also slept in the same yard so that they could look after each other.
The assassination attempt by Tianyi Pavilion failed, and none of the three people sent came back alive. The assassins sent this time were more powerful than those three.
This time, more people were sent. There were about ten people sent to kill Xuanyuan Lei, but they were all killed by the secret guards sent by the emperor.
Ten people were sent to kill Wang Jingru. They all entered her space and worked for her.
The head of Tianyi Pavilion, knowing this, severely reprimanded his subordinates, "Don't you want to live? You dare to go against the royal family."
The head of Tianyi Pavilion lost his temper and ordered his men to withdraw the order, because no one in Jiang Mansion survived and all of them died. When the assassins of Tianyi Pavilion found out, they were also scared and broke into a cold sweat.
