Chapter 531: The Liu family was smashed, and the feud with the Zuo Xiangfu was completely establishe
In Yongxingfang, the door of the home of Liu Zhiheng, the Minister of Works, was surrounded by a group of burly men.
Among them, a woman in a gorgeous brocade robe shouted fiercely to the people behind her: "Smash it! Smash it to pieces!!"
The big men responded and rushed forward, holding various tools in their hands, and dispersed towards the Qiantang back house of Liu's mansion.
Then I heard the sounds of ping-pong and crackling.
Those big men tore to pieces everything that could be moved and smashed in the mansion!
Pots, pans, antiques, flowers, nothing was spared, even the furniture was chopped open!
In an instant, the Liu Mansion was in ruins.
Huddled in the corner were Liu Zhiheng's wife, Liu, two concubines, and two illegitimate daughters.
They held their heads, not daring to cry or shout, only trembling with fear. They only knew that the person who came was not ordinary, and seemed to have come for revenge.
Most of the people living in Yongxingfang were the families of officials. Families of officials of similar status would visit each other and stick together. At this time, quite a few people had gathered at the gate of Liu's mansion.
"Who are you? This is the home of the Minister of Works. Aren't you afraid of being punished by the government for vandalizing it like this?"
That was Wang Shuyan, the wife of Chen Hua, the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue. The Chen and Liu families had equal status and were privately friends. The daughters of the two families were also good friends.
At this time, Wang Shuyan didn't know what was going on, but out of loyalty, she questioned.
When the leading woman in brocade clothes heard this, she turned around coldly and glared at her fiercely, her eyes full of murderous intent and warning!
"presumptuous!!"
The maidservant following behind the woman in brocade clothes had a pretty face, sharp eyes and eyebrows, and possessed an aura and pressure that ordinary maids did not have.
"Our wife is the Left Prime Minister's wife! How dare you, a wife of a lowly fourth-rank official, question her?"
"What? Madam Zuo Xiang?!"
Why would the wife of the Left Prime Minister come to the Minister's house to smash things up?
What happened?
People who were unaware of the situation were discussing it privately from a distance.
When Wang Shuyan heard the identity of the visitor, her face turned pale and she quickly stepped forward to apologize: "It's the Madam! Shuyan is ignorant. It was the first time I saw your true face and I didn't recognize you. It's a great sin! I hope the Madam won't blame me!"
The wife of the Left Prime Minister, Dong Daiying, is the daughter of the former Earl of Loyalty and Bravery. She possesses an aura and majesty that are unmatched by ordinary people.
She only glanced at Wang Shuyan, then shouted to her men, "Smash them clean for me!"
At this moment, she had only one thought in mind, and that was to avenge her son!!
Wang Shuyan looked at Liu who was huddled in the corner of the yard, and a strange emotion flashed in her eyes.
Whether out of reluctance or something else, he steeled himself and asked again, "Madam, what happened? Why are you so angry?"
Dong Daiying remained silent, staring with eyes as big as copper bells, watching the Liu Mansion become a mess and dilapidated in front of her.
After everything that could be dismantled was dismantled, the servants returned to Dong Daiying's side.
The Liu family women watched this scene with tears in their eyes. How could this still be a home? It was clearly a ruin!
Madam Liu's eyes were filled with hatred, as she had just learned that it was the wife of the Left Prime Minister!
Didn't Yuling say she was dating the third son of the Left Prime Minister's Mansion? Didn't they say they were about to get married? Why did the Fu family's eldest wife treat the Liu family like this?
She was very confused and stood up and walked towards Dong Daiying to question, "Madam, Yuling and the Third Young Master are interested in each other and are about to get married. How can we say that we will be relatives in the future? Why are you doing this?"
"Or do you despise our Liu family, a small and insignificant family? Are you unwilling to marry into our Liu family?"
"But even if you're not happy with the two children being together, just say so! Why did you bring people to destroy our Liu family? Aren't your actions a bit too overbearing?!"
As soon as she finished speaking, the anger that Dong Daiying had suppressed in her heart suddenly surged up, and she slapped Liu to the ground.
Soon, Liu's cheeks became swollen.
She looked at her in astonishment, unable to believe that this was something a first-rank lady could do!
After all, she was an official's wife, not a servant kept by Dong Daiying who could be beaten or scolded at will!
Hatred flashed in her eyes. "Madam, even if you hold a high position, I will not give up easily! Even if I have to file a complaint with the emperor, I will seek justice for our Liu family!"
"Justice?!" Dong Daiying's face was filled with hatred. "You still want justice?"
"Then who will give justice to my son?!"
She screamed fiercely, having completely lost the composure and bearing of a lady.
Liu was completely stunned and didn't understand what she meant.
Remembering that Fu Minghe was still imprisoned in the Dali Temple, he thought that the eldest lady was angry about this matter.
But she didn't understand, so she stood up and tried to defend herself, "The Third Young Master got into a fight with someone, accidentally killed someone, and was imprisoned in the Dali Temple. What does this have to do with our Liu family?"
Wang Shuyan stood aside and watched silently, always feeling that the eldest lady was not here for that matter.
She stepped forward, wanting to play the role of a peacemaker. After all, she heard from her daughter that Liu Yuling had hooked up with the third young master of the Left Prime Minister's Mansion. In the future, she might even be able to enter the Prime Minister's Mansion. This was a good opportunity to build connections!
"Madam, is there any misunderstanding about this matter? Why don't we open up..."
"Your daughter killed my son!!"
Dong Daiying's words made Wang Shuyan shut up.
The gate, which had been bustling with noise, suddenly fell silent, and almost everyone's face was filled with fear and disbelief.
Liu was also stunned. Did she hear it right?
"You, what did you say?"
Yuling killed someone? And also killed the Third Young Master?
How can this be?
After a moment, a low murmur arose among the crowd.
"Miss Liu killed Mr. Fu San? This is impossible, right?"
"Didn't Madam Liu just say that Miss Liu and Mr. Fu San were interested in each other and were planning to get married? How did this murder come about?"
"Wait, isn't Mr. Fu San in the Dali Temple prison?"
"Master Fu San is dead?"
"What the hell is going on?!"
It seems that everyone cares about different things, but one thing is the same, that is, everyone has a curiosity to eat melons.
Dong Daiying glanced at the crowd coldly, and the strong pressure made those people shut up and dared not speak anymore.
When the place was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop, she continued, "Your Liu family owes my son a life, and Lucy Liu alone can't afford to pay it back!"
"From today on, I will make your Liu family pay a heavy price for what Lucy Liu did!!"
Liu looked at her, and the fear in her heart deepened infinitely.
On her face was a hatred that penetrated deep into her bones, like a raging storm, wanting to tear all the members of the Liu family to pieces, just like the devastated Liu family mansion at this moment.
It was not until Dong Daiying and his men left that Liu seemed to have lost all her strength and collapsed to the ground.
"lady!"
"Mother!!"
The remaining members of the Liu family all ran over. Their faces looked worried, but deep in their eyes they were hiding their own plans.
In a carriage at the corner of the street, Shu He lowered the curtain and looked at the man opposite. "Will this really work?"
