Chapter 227: Old Zhu personally killed Lu Ziqian
The man in black sneered: "You old woman are really biased. You sold your eldest son just for your youngest son?"
Mrs. Zhu was extremely anxious: "What I said is true. He is really not my son."
"Of course I have to take care of my own children."
"I was married for three years and couldn't have children, so I went to the temple to burn incense... and I met a fortune teller..."
"I pretended to be pregnant and went up the mountain to chop firewood. Sure enough, I met a woman who had given birth to twins, a boy and a girl."
"The woman said that her family was robbed by bandits, and she got separated from them and lost her way in the mountains."
"After I helped her deliver the baby, I took her baby away and... I killed her."
"I was afraid she would come back and take the child away... I didn't want to kill her."
"But she threatened me, saying her family was very rich and that her family would definitely find me..."
"I was afraid she would take revenge on me, so I strangled her with the rope I used to tie firewood, and also stole her belongings..."
"I buried her body next to a land temple in the back mountain."
"The land temple collapsed due to rain that year, and a big hole formed in it. I didn't have to dig a pit, so I just buried the body inside."
"If you don't believe me, you can send someone to look for it. The land temple should still be there..."
"Oh, there's also a beautiful jade pendant. It looks very valuable, but I don't dare sell it. There's something engraved on it, and I'm afraid her family will recognize it."
"Everything I said is true. I still have that piece of jade. It's in the bottom drawer of my dressing table, wrapped in a piece of red cloth."
"If you want it, I'll show it to you now." Old Zhu said with a pleading look on her face.
The old man and Lu Jingming both looked at her in shock. Could it be that what she said was true?
Her expression didn't seem fake, and there were no loopholes in her words.
Lu Jingming stood on the ground in a daze for a long time.
The leader sneered: "Why would I want a piece of jade?"
Old Mrs. Zhu still refused to give up and even pointed out the location of the warehouse and asked them to take everything away, just to save the second wife's life.
"You old lady, do you really have nothing to do with their master?"
Old Zhu nodded frantically, even pleading flatteringly: "As long as the hero spares our family, I can personally lead the hero to capture the other members of the first family!"
"Mom! You..." Lu Jingming roared angrily.
Old Zhu's voice became louder: "I'm not your mother, don't call me mother."
"Your whole family deserves to die. Who allowed you to implicate us?"
Lu Jingming's eyes were bloodshot, and he was shaking with anger. Tears even welled up in his eyes. "Mom, even if I'm not your biological child, you raised me. We've been mother and son for decades, and you're so cruel?"
His voice was trembling, he was really sad to the extreme.
"Bah, who is your mother? Bullshit mother-son love. If the fortune teller hadn't said you could bring me wealth, I wouldn't have even looked at you and Daya dying on the roadside."
"You also said that I raised you, and it's time for you to repay me."
"You won't lose out if I exchange your family's life for mine."
Old Zhu stared at Lu Ziqian, who lay dying on the ground, and suddenly said viciously, "It's all because of this beast that we've been implicated."
The man in black sneered: "Well acted, at least you can keep one room."
"It's not acting!"
The man in black suddenly threw a dagger in front of Old Zhu: "If you kill them father and son with your own hands, I will believe you."
Old Zhu's eyes flashed with ecstasy: "If I kill them with my own hands, can you please let our family go?"
"Of course, I said I don't kill innocent people, I only kill members of the Lu family."
"Okay, I'll kill him."
Seeing her pick up the dagger and walk towards Lu Ziqian, Lu Jingming struggled frantically: "Mom, stop it, don't touch him."
"Kill me if you want to kill me!"
"Kill this evil first, then kill you."
"Mom, please, don't touch Qian'er, please..."
Old Mrs. Zhu ignored him completely, walked up to Lu Ziqian with a dagger, turned him over with great effort, and stabbed him hard in the heart.
With a puff, blood splattered out and sprayed all over Old Zhu's face.
"do not want!"
"Qian'er!"
Lu Jingming didn't know where he got the strength from, but he broke free and kicked Old Zhu away: "You vicious woman!!"
"Ahhhhh..." Lu Jingming collapsed and screamed.
Before he could touch Lu Ziqian, he was caught again.
Old Zhu spat out a mouthful of blood, struggled to get up from the ground, glared at Lu Jingming viciously, then smiled sinisterly, and like a devil from hell, stabbed Lu Ziqian in the stomach again and again, she was taking malicious revenge.
"Evil woman... old evil woman, I will kill you... Stop... Stop..."
Lu Jingming beat his chest and stamped his feet. He regretted deeply why he didn't insist on letting Qian'er wear this invulnerable clothes!
Suddenly, the people behind him knocked Lu Jingming unconscious, fearing that he would be over-stimulated, which would be counterproductive.
Lu Ziqian also suddenly got up from the ground and kicked Old Zhu away.
"Old woman, you finally told the truth!"
"You...you..." Old Mrs. Zhu turned pale with fright.
"Arrest all the people from the second house."
"And these disloyal slaves, all had their tongues cut off and were sent to the mines to do hard labor."
"Yes."
The bandit leader suddenly knelt respectfully in front of Lu Ziqian and became his subordinate.
The people in the second room were so scared that they pissed themselves. It was over, everything was over!
Old Zhu was so ruthless that she not only told the truth but also tortured and killed Lu Ziqian with her own hands.
She completely offended the eldest wife.
Before, Lu Jingming protected her, but now Lu Jingming wishes he could kill this vicious old woman with his own hands.
"Commander Chen, please tell the Queen and the Crown Prince everything that just happened."
"Yes."
Lu Shunxin collapsed to the ground. It was over. Now he even offended the queen.
Her mother killed the queen's mother with her own hands!
Even the burial location was clearly stated. Once the body was found, even the queen would not let them go.
Mo Hua quickly came out of Old Zhu's room, holding something wrapped in red cloth in her hand.
"Master, the jade pendant has been found."
Lu Ziqian opened the red cloth and took a look. The jade pendant was transparent and flawless, lustrous and smooth, of high-quality texture. The words "Overseas Cheng Family" were engraved on it.
Lu Ziqian looked at the words engraved on the jade pendant, which reminded him of the mysterious Cheng family of the previous dynasty. It was said that the Cheng family was rich enough to rival a country, but they mysteriously disappeared during the war and have been living in seclusion ever since.
After all, only a large family with such a profound background can own such a rare treasure.
Lu Ziqian put away the jade pendant and ordered Mo Shu and Mo Hua to lock the man up first.
"Is my dad okay?"
The doctor who had been prepared for this immediately took Lu Jingming's pulse and said, "General Lu has suffered quite a shock. Fortunately, he is in good health and nothing serious is wrong with him. He will recover after a few days of rest."
