Wang Yuan, Sheng Huaixing, Xu Zheng, and others did not expect the various parties to collide, it can only be said that they are really enemies on a narrow road.
Lu Songli raised her eyebrows, in a rather good mood as she watched this scene. Oh, the whole family is going to prison, does that mean they have already been raided? So next should be exile, right?
“Oh, what’s going on?” Sheng Huaixing replied, “Just like you, raided and exiled.” Just by hearing the rising tone of her voice when asking questions, one could feel her gloating mood. That’s why you shouldn’t offend women, especially intelligent ones.
As expected, Lu Songli looked at Xie Zhan, the leader of the group, and Xie Zhan also locked eyes with Lu Songli as soon as the two groups of people met.
Their eyes met, sparks flew.
Lu Songli: Xie Zhan, we’ve all won the jackpot of being raided together, surprised or not? Unexpected, right?
Xie Zhan also silently looked at Lu Songli, his starry eyes dark and deep like the sea, seemingly containing all his anger and emotions beneath a calm surface.
It’s said that when enemies meet, their eyes turn red.
At least that’s how it is for the Xie and Zhao families. The Xie clan resented her for causing their lives to fall from the clouds to the mud, and the Zhao family blamed her for everything that happened.
And she had to ask such a heart-wrenching question, making people hate her even more. So both the Xie and Zhao families glared at her with anger.
The three brothers of the Zhao family looked at Lu Songli, was she the one who confused Zhao Bin?
Lu Songli also saw Zhao Bin. After he cooperated in providing core secrets about the Zhao family, she had hinted for him to escape. Take his money and flee far away, live in hiding, but he refused. So Lu Songli let go.
The three brothers of the Qin family also looked surprised at this scene. How did the Xie and Zhao families end up in prison? It was like a mirror image of what happened to the Qin family.
Looking at the people opposite who were staring at Lu Songli intently, they probably understood that she was behind the raid and exile of the two families.
Qin Heng knew that Lu Songli was collecting information on the Xie and Zhao families, and the Qin family had also contributed: Qin Sheng had even seen the evidence she compiled about the two families.
Qin Heng thought for a moment, she must have made a deal with the Fourth Prince. Previously, she had returned from negotiations and told them everything went smoothly. They thought she had only solved the issue of the Qin family quickly heading to the place of exile, but unexpectedly, she had also taken care of the Xie and Zhao families.
Qin Heng was curious about how she negotiated with the Fourth Prince. She shouldn’t have had so many bargaining chips to make two requests at the same time. She was a clear-headed person, aware of the importance of things. He believed that getting the Qin family out of prison must have been her top priority in the negotiations with the Fourth Prince. He wondered what she had discussed with the Fourth Prince, as in just one or two days, they were preparing to depart for the place of exile, and the Xie and Zhao families had been brought down.
Qin Sanlang, Qin Zhao was the one who knew the least, but this time, judging from the reactions of the Xie and Zhao people opposite, he could also guess that it was Lu Songli, the Sixth Sister, who had acted.
Impressive, she was in prison herself, yet managed to bring down the Xie and Zhao families. It was clear that she had planned ahead, her ability to prepare in advance, her foresight, her insight, truly admirable.
Qin Sheng didn’t think too much, seeing so many people glaring at her, he pulled her, but she didn’t move, so he took a step forward, standing beside her, facing the many malicious gazes together.
At this moment, Zhao Yutan was completely unaware of the tense atmosphere between her husband Xie Zhan and Lu Songli.
She looked incredulously at the Qin family and especially Qin Heng, her eyes fixed on his legs. He wasn’t tortured? Clearly, in her precognitive dreams, before the Qin family went into exile, Qin Heng was tortured and had his legs broken!
Was her precognitive dream false? She almost screamed out loud, but luckily she had some sense left, she bit down hard on her teeth, suppressing the scream that was about to escape her throat.
It wasn’t until now that she finally realized that the future she had foreseen in her precognitive dreams was not set in stone.
At this moment, Qin Heng also noticed something off about Zhao Yutan. Her eyes seemed to be staring directly at his lower body, a gaze that Qin Heng did not appreciate.
Lu Songli and Xie Zhan, on the other hand, were engrossed in their own conversation. Xie Zhan did not even spare a glance at Qin Sheng standing next to Lu Songli, his gaze never leaving her face. However, neither of them mentioned the agreement they made at the Hongsheng Tavern to cease hostilities.
Bringing it up would only be laughable.
Both sides were rational and pragmatic politicians, knowing what words to trust and what not to trust.
Yes, Xie Zhan had come to acknowledge that Lu Songli possessed the qualities of a politician. It was truly unbelievable that a woman could possess such traits. But it had happened. Such a person had emerged.
If asked if he regretted it, he would only say that Xie Zhan never regretted his actions.
“Lu Songli, you’ve won again,” Xie Zhan said solemnly.
Lu Songli replied confidently, “Yes, I’ve won again.”
She strategized the whole situation, leveraging her strength, making bold moves, using her own power to neutralize the advantages of the Xie and Zhao families, turning their generations of efforts into nothing, bringing the Xie and Zhao families to the same starting line as the Qin and Lu families. Wasn’t it worth a self-affirmation?
Moreover, they had an advantage over Xie Zhan, which was the road to exile. Both she and Qin Heng had prepared contingencies, as long as there were no major unexpected situations, they could basically save the majority of people.
She believed that Xie Zhan still had a trump card up his sleeve. Cunning as a rabbit, she didn’t believe that the elders of the Xie family hadn’t left some tricks for their descendants.
But the road to exile was very difficult. With so many people from the Xie and Zhao families, how many could he save?
Saving people required resources. And his resources were limited. If he used too much, what would he have left to start over?
If he hesitated to use resources to save people, it would jeopardize his position as clan leader and family head.
Tsk tsk, every time Lu Songli thought about him being caught in such a dilemma, she couldn’t help but feel happy for him. What was going on?
The conversation between the two was straightforward. Anyone present could understand that the current situation of the Xie and Zhao families was the result of their negotiations.
Those present, with their names and reputations, were all intelligent people. Even the members of the Xie family, with Xie Zhan’s guidance, had understood it all.
Thinking about the grievances between the two sides, Sheng Huaixing couldn’t help but sigh. Oh Xie Zhan, do you regret it now? It was just breaking off an engagement, yet your former fiancee managed to drag your whole family into prison, resulting in a confiscation of property and exile.
So, men must never break their promises or abandon their principles, and they shouldn’t casually break off engagements or marriages, as most people cannot bear the consequences. Even someone like Xie Zhan found it unbearable to pay such a high price.
And as for the Zhao family, their daughter snatching a man led to their own downfall into confiscation of property and exile.
Who else was left?
At that moment, Sheng Huaixing and Qin Zhao inexplicably synchronized.
Qin Zhao patted Qin Sheng’s shoulder and said, “Little Sixth, take care of yourself. For the sake of the Qin family, you must never betray your wife. Otherwise, both big brother and I will break your legs! In the future, the motto of our Qin family will be to sacrifice one for the happiness of the whole family.”
Qin Sheng looked at his third brother inexplicably. This guy’s brain was not working properly again.
