The whole family died tragically? The eldest daughter is the most powerful in the capital after her

Madam Wang took a few deep breaths, raised her hand to wipe away her tears, and stood up straight, nodding: "You are right, I can't fall down, Yanqing is still waiting for me to save her."

Nanny Wang at the side also whispered, "Madam, we can't let those people from the Zhu family bully us! Now that the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo has come along, she will be Yanqing's backing."

Mrs. Wang took a deep breath, and her eyes gradually regained clarity: "Okay, I'll listen to you."

At the same time, in the Zhu Mansion, after receiving the report from the servant, Zhu Kang's face darkened, and then he sneered, walked up to Madam Zhu, and said in a low voice: "Mother, the people from the Wang family and the Gu family are here, you go and deal with them, remember, no matter how they make trouble, they can't let them see Yanqing."

Madam Zhu frowned, with a hint of impatience: "Is Yanqing still alive? How can she take so long to give birth to a child? If she drags on, just kill her directly to avoid her ruining our plan."

Zhu Kang's face suddenly changed, and he waved his hands quickly: "No! We absolutely cannot do this! She must have died during childbirth, otherwise if the Gu family finds a coroner to perform an autopsy, none of us will be able to escape."

After hearing this, Mrs. Zhu frowned even more tightly and replied reluctantly, "Okay, I'll listen to you. But don't let anything go wrong with this last kick."

Zhu Kang smiled grimly: "Don't worry, this is the final step, I will keep a close eye on it and there will be no mistakes."

Madam Zhu raised her head and glanced outside. She snorted coldly, "These people are really haunting us. Okay, I'll go deal with them."

Afterwards, Zhu Kang strode into the backyard. The house was filled with a strong smell of blood. Wang Yanqing's face was pale, and there was almost no blood on her thin cheeks, but she stared at the man who came in.

“Zhu Kang, you are simply a beast in human form, worse than an animal!” Wang Yanqing gritted her teeth and scolded, her voice weak but full of hatred, “You even spared your own child, aren’t you afraid of being punished by God?!”

Zhu Kang walked to the bedside, looked down at the dying Wang Yanqing, and sneered, his eyes devoid of pity: "God's punishment? You are too naive. In this world, strength is important, there is no such thing as God's punishment."

Wang Yanqing's chest rose and fell violently, and her fingertips pointed at him with trembling hands: "Zhu Kang, do you think that if you do it cleanly, you won't be discovered? I tell you, the Wang family will not let you go! The Gu family will definitely not let you go either!"

Zhu Kang chuckled nonchalantly, approached the edge of her bed, leaned over and said in an almost contemptuous tone: "Wang Yanqing, I know you still have hope in your heart, but what do you think has kept you going until now? The Wang family? The Gu family?"

He shook his head, his eyes showing pride: "Whether it's the Wang family or the Gu family, their ability to support you is not enough to shake the Zhu family. Besides, do you think the Wang family will really go to such lengths for you?"

Wang Yanqing's eyes became more fierce. She wanted to get up from the bed, but her weak body held her down and she couldn't move. "Zhu Kang, forget it! If I die, my mother will never let it go!"

Zhu Kang sneered in a low voice and sat down beside her bed. His tone was indifferent as if he was talking about an insignificant matter: "After you die, I will promote Ling'er to be my principal wife, and the child will also be the blood of the Zhu family. As for your Wang family, ha..."

He paused and said sarcastically, "Isn't your fifth brother working under my arrangement? If I promote him to a high position, your parents will only be grateful to me. Why would they care about your death?"

Wang Yanqing was so angry that she was shaking all over: "Zhu Kang, you are absolutely crazy! The child is innocent, but you don't even let your own flesh and blood go. Do you have any humanity at all!"

"Innocent?" Zhu Kang sneered, his eyes as cold as a venomous snake: "Wang Yanqing, you should be glad that I am willing to let the child live. As for you, dying in childbirth is normal in aristocratic families. There are so many women who die in childbirth every year. One more and one less will not make much difference."

These words were like a knife piercing Wang Yanqing's heart. She gasped violently, and the pain in her chest made it almost impossible for her to breathe.

Suddenly, a mouthful of blood spurted out from the corner of her mouth, staining the pillow red.

"Zhu Kang!" She shouted hoarsely, her eyes filled with hatred, "I curse you! You will never die a good death! Your Ling'er and your children will not live long!"

Zhu Kang looked at her, not only did he not have the slightest bit of pity, but he also sneered: "Yanqing, you are hanging on to your life with this resentment now, right? But it doesn't matter, I don't mind waiting for you to hold on for a while. Anyway, you won't live much longer."

In the front yard.

Madam Zhu sat in the main hall, shaking the teacup in her hand gently, with a proper smile on her face. She greeted Madam Wang in a gentle tone: "Yanqing is always well-behaved, but a pregnant woman cannot stand emotional fluctuations. The master and I have discussed it and decided that it is not appropriate to let outsiders disturb her rest, so I did not let you in."

Mrs. Wang's face turned pale when she heard this. She clenched her handkerchief tightly with her fingers, and her voice was trembling slightly. "But what is Yanqing's condition like? The midwife and the doctor have already arrived at the mansion. Why are you sending them away? This is clearly a matter of life and death. How can you be so careless?"

Mrs. Zhu remained calm and showed a relieved expression: "Yanqing's condition is not too bad now, she is just a little weak. As for the midwife and doctor, Yanqing said she is afraid of strangers and doesn't want to see them, so they arranged for her to stay far away."

These words were full of loopholes, but Mrs. Zhu said it so calmly, as if it was perfect.

The wife of the Duke of Zhenguo looked at Mrs. Zhu coldly, knowing in her heart that the Zhu family was determined to take this opportunity to get rid of Wang Yanqing.

She slowly put down the teacup and said in a deep voice, "Sister, you and I both know Yanqing's personality. When has she ever been so willful? Besides, a pregnant woman about to give birth needs a midwife and a doctor the most. How can she make the decision on such an important matter by herself?"

Mrs. Zhu's tone was slightly hesitant, but she soon smiled again: "I know you are concerned about Yanqing, but this is the Zhu family. Yanqing has married into our Zhu family, so of course these things are arranged by us. Just rest assured, I will make sure Yanqing and her child are safe."

After saying this, Madam Wang finally couldn't help it. Her eyes turned red and her voice became louder: "Yanqing is my daughter! How can I be at ease?! No matter what, I must see Yanqing today, otherwise I will never leave!"

Madam Zhu's face changed slightly. She was about to say something more, but the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo raised her hand to stop Madam Wang and smiled coldly: "It's true that Yanqing married into the Zhu family, but she is also the daughter of the Wang family. Now that she is pregnant with the flesh and blood of the Zhu family, shouldn't her family know her true situation?"
