The daughter of a general is reborn to save the whole family of the marquis

What Chu Heyi found was a secret room mechanism hidden behind a landscape painting. She rolled up the painting and twisted the mechanism underneath.

First, twist it to the right three times, then twist it to the left twice, and finally twist it to the right three times. The wall behind the bookshelf moved, and an entrance appeared. It was only large enough for one person to pass through, and that person had to turn sideways to pass through.

Chu Heyi slipped in.

The smell of blood mixed with the smell of dampness hit me in the face.

Chu Heyi looked down and saw stairs. Below the stairs was a basement. Light shone in from the stairs on the other side of the basement, illuminating the basement slightly.

She walked down the steps.

Standing in the middle of the empty basement, with no wind around, she felt a gust of chilly wind, as if she was the person buried under the concrete in her previous life.

Chu Heyi took out the fire starter he carried with him, blew it to light it, and then looked carefully at the scene in the basement.

There was a large step-out bed with a red curtain hanging on it. The curtain was stained with blood, which had already solidified. The floor was also stained with thick blood, which had turned black.

The color and thickness are like the blood of many people, spread over the years.

Opposite the bed, there was a very long wooden table. Chu Heyi walked over with a tinder in her hand. When her eyes fell on the things on it, even though she had died once, she felt very uncomfortable in an instant and almost vomited.

Because what was placed on it was a tiny big toe. After the flesh and blood had rotted away, only the bones were left. It emitted a faint white light in the basement, as if telling of years of coldness, helplessness and fear.

Next to each big toe bone, numbers and dates were carved with a knife.

The smallest number is five and the largest number is twelve. Chu Heyi guessed that these are ages.

As for the dates, the earliest was ten years ago and the latest was yesterday. Yesterday's big toe had just begun to rot and the white bones had not yet been exposed.

They are placed quietly on the table, occupying a small space, but seem to be telling of endless pain.

Chu Heyi felt her scalp tingling and her heart a chill. Whenever the image of a little girl being bullied to death by Zheng Xiangrong appeared in her mind, she felt a piercing pain in her heart and couldn't bear to think about it.

He just wanted to cut Zheng Xiangrong into pieces.

There was some movement outside, and Chu Heyi was worried that Zheng Xiangrong was coming over, so he quickly hid the things he had prepared in advance under the bed, then quickly left the basement and returned to the study.

She put her ear to the door and indeed heard footsteps approaching.

Zheng Xiangrong's voice was indeed heard outside.

He was asking: "What's the situation outside now?"

The personal guard replied, "General Wen Ce was furious when he heard the news. He immediately mobilized soldiers to block the main and back doors of our Marquis Shi'an Mansion and demanded that we hand over Miss Hui."

Zheng Xiangrong raised his eyebrows: "Without the emperor's order, he dared to mobilize troops privately. He is indeed a good candidate to ruin the family."

As he said this, he laughed.

He began to tidy up his collar and sleeves, which were neither messy nor dirty, and spoke casually:

"Go ahead and let him know how his sister served me in the Marquis of Shi'an's mansion. Pay attention to the details. The more realistic the better. Don't let him think we are deceiving him or scaring him.

"It must be funny to see the well-mannered Fourth Master Chu showing off his anger."

The personal bodyguard agreed and immediately went there with his men.

Chu Ren was surprised when he heard that Chu Hui was abducted by Zheng Xiangrong's men. Then, someone whispered in his ear about Zheng Xiangrong's special hobbies and cruel methods, and he was furious.

He immediately dispatched fifty soldiers to surround the Marquis Shi'an's mansion.

As a result, when he arrived, the Marquis Shi'an's Mansion had already received the news, and hundreds of guards were guarding in front of and behind the gates, confronting Chu Ren.

Chu Hui was only twelve years old, a little girl. Chu Ren was so angry at the thought that she might be bullied by Zheng Xiangrong.

Zheng Xiangrong's personal bodyguard, upon hearing Zheng Xiangrong's words, came out specially to "welcome" Chu Ren.

"Miss Hui took the initiative to pester our Lord and come to the mansion to serve him. Now she is serving our Lord food and clothes, but General Wen Ce has brought soldiers to surround our Marquis Shi'an Mansion. What is his intention?"

Chu Ren was furious: "Sister Hui would never do such a shameful thing. It was clearly your Marquis Shi'an who kidnapped my sister Hui and now you are slandering me. Hand my sister Hui over quickly, or else don't blame me for being rude!"

The guard sneered and said, "General Wen Ce really doesn't understand girls. Although Miss Heyi of your family is a legitimate daughter, she grew up in the countryside; and Miss Hui, although a concubine's daughter, grew up in the Zhenbei Marquis's Mansion and is a proper lady from a noble family.

"As a result, Miss Heyi can discuss marriage with our Marquis, but Miss Hui is not qualified. Miss Hui is really dissatisfied and takes the initiative to serve our Marquis. Miss Hui said that even if she is only the Marquis's concubine, she will be satisfied, which is better than marrying into a poor family."

Upon hearing this, Chu Ren's eyes were filled with anger and he just wanted to rush into Marquis Shi'an's mansion, bring Chu Hui out, and ask her everything.

The guards blocked the door and refused to budge: "General Wen Ce is righteous and might not be able to figure out how Miss Hui entangled our Lord. You will know if you look at this thing. Miss Hui took the initiative to give it to our Lord."

The guard took out a water-colored bellyband from his arms and showed it to Chu Ren and everyone else.

Most of the people present were men, and their breathing suddenly became rapid, with an urge to party.

Chu Renze felt his blood rushing up and his eyes instantly turned red. He had never advocated martial arts, but at this moment he wanted to kill someone.

"My sister Hui is just a girl, and she is still young. How can you slander her like this? Hand over my sister Hui, or I will destroy your Marquis Shi'an Mansion today!"

Chu Ren waved the sword in his hand and rushed in.

The soldiers behind him rushed forward.

At this moment, in the inner courtyard of Marquis Shi'an's Mansion, Zheng Xiangrong was walking towards the study.

He wanted to feel Chu Hui's twelve-year-old body before Chu Ren came in, and afterward he wanted to cut off a part of her big toe and put it on the long cabinet in the basement. That would be the proof that he could dominate other people's lives.

He likes the bloody pleasure, which makes him very excited and gives him a feeling of dominating everything.

The key was inserted into the hole, the door lock opened, Zheng Xiangrong pushed open the door of the study, but what he saw was not the picture he had imagined in his mind. He was stunned for a moment.

Chu Heyi was seen wearing Chu Hui's light green dress and having her hair done in Chu Hui's double buns, which made her eyes look big, round, clear and clever.

When Chu Heyi returned to the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion, he was skinny and shriveled, with dark skin. Now, after a year of being raised in the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion, his figure has become plump, his face has flesh, and his skin has become fairer.

In addition, her dressing style is exactly the same as Chu Hui, making her look two or three years younger.

After a brief moment of surprise, Zheng Xiangrong felt that replacing Chu Hui with Chu Heyi would not have much impact.

However, Chu Heyi's current sitting posture on the chair made him quite unhappy. That carved nanmu chair was where he usually sat to do his work. How could she, a girl, occupy his seat?

Moreover, even though she was captured, she was still so fearless, which Zheng Xiangrong didn't like.

Zheng Xiangrong said: "The person I want to capture is Chu Hui, why are you here?"

Chu Heyi looked Zheng Xiangrong up and down. Zheng Xiangrong was nearly thirty years old, with a rough build, a typical image of a warrior.

"Marquis Shi'an likes little girls? Are you worried that you can't trick mature girls into liking you with your abilities, so you target little girls?"

Chu Heyi started by mocking him.

Zheng Xiangrong thought that he was firmly in the position of a butcher with a butcher knife in hand, and Chu Heyi would be frightened to the point of losing her color and kneeling down in front of him begging for mercy like a lamb to be slaughtered. But she actually dared to mock him!

Zheng Xiangrong was not mentally prepared, so he was furious and instinctively argued: "An old girl with skin as rough as tree bark, why should I like her? Do you think you can compare with Chu Hui? In my mind, Chu Hui is a delicacy!"

Chu Heyi felt sick: "You can admire young girls, they are cute and adorable, but you shouldn't mistreat them."

Zheng Xiangrong laughed loudly: "Disgrace? It's their blessing to be able to serve me. If I didn't like it, do you think they can serve me with their status?"

Zheng Xiangrong approached and looked down at her: "Chu Heyi, today is also your blessing. I didn't like you in the first place, you asked for it."

He was about to pounce on Chu Heyi.

At this moment, Chu Heyi raised something in her hand, which was a case file.

Zheng Xiangrong suddenly stopped and smiled softly, "Oh, you found it."

Chu Heyi stood up from his chair without saying anything.

Outside the study door, there were sounds of footsteps and fighting.

The smile on Zheng Xiangrong's face became more and more wicked: "Did you hear that? Your fourth brother is coming with soldiers to kill us. He has secretly mobilized troops in Shengjing City without the emperor's permission. And with the case file in your hand, your Zhenbei Marquis Mansion is doomed."

Chu Heyi still just looked at him steadily, with no expression on his face.

Zheng Xiangrong thought she didn't understand, so he took the initiative to explain to her so that she would give up: "The case book in your hand is the confidential information between me and the emperor, and now it is in your hands. It can be seen that your Zhenbei Marquis Mansion wants to steal the confidential documents of the court!

"First, I sent you to seduce me, hoping to confuse me so that I could steal confidential documents and send them to the enemy. Secondly, I asked your fourth brother to secretly mobilize troops and break into my Marquis Shi'an Mansion to escort you.

"Your Zhenbei Marquis Mansion is collaborating with the enemy and committing treason! Now that I have caught you, you, your fourth brother, and even everyone in your Zhenbei Marquis Mansion, will never be able to escape!"

Chu Heyi had guessed early on what kind of crime Zheng Xiangrong was going to accuse the Marquis of Zhenbei of.

When she came to the study and found this file that was not hidden very secretly, she became more certain of her guess.

Now Zheng Xiangrong explained everything to her - her guesses were all correct, and the precautions she had taken were also correct.

Chu Heyi took out the fire stick again, blew it up, and placed it under the file. "What if I burn this file? Wouldn't it be untrue that our people from Zhenbei Marquis Mansion came to your Shi'an Marquis Mansion to steal the confidential file?"

Zheng Xiangrong looked at her as if she were an idiot: "What a joke! You and your fourth brother are colluding with each other and appearing here. This is enough to prove that you want to steal the confidential documents of Daqi!

"If the document is not burned, it will be presented to the emperor as physical evidence. If it is burned, it must be someone from your Zhenbei Marquis Mansion who has already sent it away."

"It sounds really scary. If my Zhenbei Marquis Mansion is not careful, my whole family will die at the hands of a traitor like you."

Chu Heyi said this in a sad tone and lit the case file in his hand.

Zheng Xiangrong's eyes lit up with pride. "Since you already know, just surrender now and I can try to keep your body intact... What did you pour on me?"

Zheng Xiangrong was still talking proudly, but Chu Heyi suddenly opened the lid of the cup next to him and poured something on him.

Zheng Xiangrong thought it was the leftover tea he had drunk, but it smelled strange.

He jumped over the desk and wanted to capture Chu Heyi, but Chu Heyi threw the burning case file at him. Zheng Xiangrong dodged instinctively but was still hit by the flames. When the flames touched his clothes, they instantly caught fire.

"I'm pouring oil on you! Zheng Xiangrong, I'm not only going to burn the case files, I'm going to burn you too! People like you don't deserve to live in this world!"

Seeing that Zheng Xiangrong was about to kill her, Chu Heyi used the force of the table to jump up and gave Zheng Xiangrong a series of kicks, kicking him directly away and then falling to the ground.

There was a loud bang.

"If God doesn't kill you, I will!" Chu Heyi chased after him. Seeing this, Zheng Xiangrong rolled out of the study.

The clothes on his body burned very quickly and had already burned his skin. It was so painful that he rolled on the ground.

The people guarding outside were so shocked and terrified when they saw this that he rolled on the ground for a long time before someone reacted and quickly fetched water to pour on him. As a result, the fire broke out instantly and almost drowned Zheng Xiangrong.

Everyone was shocked, and someone went to a nearby house, pulled down the curtains, wrapped him up, and finally put out the fire on him.

Chu Ren led his soldiers in and was stunned when he saw this scene.

Zheng Xiangrong was seen lying on the ground, gasping for breath. His clothes were burnt into tatters, and his exposed skin was covered with burn marks. His hair was also almost burnt, and his rough face was covered with scars.

Not only that, even the study was engulfed in flames, burning with crackling sounds, and everyone subconsciously moved away.

Chu Heyi was wearing a light green dress and standing in front of the fire. The long wind lifted her long hair. The fire and the black hair made her face look extremely smooth, and made everyone see that she was the one who set the fire.

At this moment, everyone's memory came back to life, and they recalled the winter of last year when Chu Heyi shot and killed the imperial concubine in the palace with a bow and arrow.

Although they had not seen it with their own eyes, they had heard about it.

What she had done in their memories, coupled with what she had done today, made everyone have the same idea in their minds - Chu Heyi was a little witch!

"Sister, why are you here? Where is Sister Hui?" Chu Ren rushed to Chu Heyi with his bloodstained sword: "Are you injured?"

Chu Heyi shook his head: "She is not injured. Sister Hui was not abducted. I came here in her place. She is fine."

"As long as there is nothing wrong with you and her!"

Chu Ren felt as if a huge rock had fallen from his heart. He felt extremely fortunate and temporarily ignored the things that she had hidden from him. He opened his arms and hugged her.

God knows how anxious he was when he led his men to fight his way in!

Zheng Xiangrong had been helped up by his personal bodyguard, and all the guards of Marquis Shi'an's Mansion were dispatched to surround Chu Heyi, Chu Ren, and the people brought by Chu Ren.

"Chu Heyi entered the Marquis Shi'an Mansion to seduce me, intending to steal my Daqi's confidential documents and send them to the enemy country! Chu Ren knew about this, but did not stop it. He also privately mobilized troops without the emperor's permission to help Chu Heyi steal the confidential documents!"

Zheng Xiangrong endured the burning pain all over his body and spoke in a deep voice.

"The Zhenbei Marquisate is collaborating with the enemy and committing treason! Now I have caught you red-handed! I have already sent someone to invite the emperor, and he will be here soon. You two can just wait to be arrested and imprisoned, and your entire family will be killed!"

He had made two preparations for this matter. As long as Chu Heyi entered his mansion and Chu Ren broke into his mansion with soldiers, the charge of treason and collaboration with the enemy would be established!

"Okay, let's wait together." Chu Heyi spoke with a calm tone.

Zheng Xiangrong met her gaze, and for some reason, he felt a chill in his spine for a moment.

Impossible, she was just a woman who knew a little bit of martial arts. If he hadn't been so careless, he wouldn't have been burned like this by her fire. She could have succeeded once, but he wouldn't be careless a second time.

Chu Heyi gave him a sarcastic look and said nothing.

Now she is more patient than anyone else. She patiently watches the study burn in the fire, patiently waits for the emperor to come, and also waits for Xie Lin to arrive.
