The vermilion door creaked open, and Old Man Xiao looked at the door excitedly with a cane, is it finally over?

Under the light of the sun, the dust raised when the door was opened was connected to the light in the sky, constantly floating and dancing, and finally fell on the white hair of Old Man Xiao.

It has only been a short month and a half, and the Xiao family's foundation has been destroyed in his hands.

Behind him stood only a dozen or so men, the rest of whom had either died of smallpox or fratricide among their clansmen.

Old Man Xiao covered his face, looked at Eighteen Niang and Li Ziqi standing at the door, his legs were weak, and he knelt down.

"Chen Xiao Zhan see Your Majesty, see Niangniang."

Eighteen Niang looked at the scene in front of her with satisfaction, the national teacher taught correctly, she had indeed discounted the backbone of the Xiao family.

The Xiao family behind Xiao Zhan had dull eyes one by one, and when they saw Eighteen Niang, their pupils shrank back suddenly.

Li Ziqi didn't speak, and the criminal department Shangshu behind him walked out quickly, and with a wave of his big hand, the sergeant locked up all the people who were still alive in the Xiao family.

Old Man Xiao didn't have time to stand up, and was shocked on the spot, "Shen Bainiang, what are you doing, you promised the old man at the beginning, I have already elected the clansmen, why did you arrest us, shouldn't this matter have been revealed." You've killed my Che'er, aren't you still angry? Obviously, His Majesty and Uncle Guo are safe and sound. ”

"I mean, if you do what I say, I won't shoot your Xiao clan people on the spot. I did, aren't you still alive and well? The state has national laws, the family has family rules, and the Xiao family plotted against the criminal and tried to murder His Majesty, and the case had already been handed over to the Criminal Department for trial. ”

Xiao Zhan's eyes widened, and then he realized that Shen Banniang had never thought of letting them go of the Xiao family from the beginning.

At the beginning, he was still thinking in his heart, fortunately, Shen Eighteen was young and ignorant, and he had long hair and short knowledge, so that their Xiao family could still escape under the big crime of rebellion, it was really the blessing of the ancestors, and he never thought that she was playing with them at all!

The rest of the people wept and wept, having just escaped smallpox and had the hope of survival, and now they were at once in despair.

"Shen Shibanniang, you cheat me! Why don't you die? ”

Eighteen Niang smiled, and looked coldly at Xiao Zhan who was kneeling on the ground, "You are my enemy, why can't I pit you?" If you don't pit the enemy, can't you pit your own father? No wonder the Xiao family did such a brainless thing, with a patriarch like you, future generations are really pitiful. ”

When Old Man Xiao heard this, he was angry, and as soon as he opened his mouth, blood spurted out, and he almost pouted.

Let them cry and grab the ground, but Shangshu of the Criminal Department had a cold face, waved his hand, and shouted: "Take them all down." ”

Old Man Xiao was dying and struggling, and shouted: "Shen Eighteen Niang, Li Ziqi, why is the vertical son so rampant, you treat us like this, aren't you afraid of arousing the anger of my Lanling Xiao clan?" ”

"In this world, there is no Lanling Xiao clan anymore." Li Ziqi received it lightly, and in this half a month, he and Shen Ze together let the Tang family see what it means to be vigorous and resolute, and the entire Lanling Xiao clan collapsed overnight and fell apart.

Old Man Xiao raised his head and looked at him in disbelief, swallowed his saliva, stretched out his hand and pointed at Li Ziqi fiercely, "Huangkou Xiaoer, I'm not afraid of blowing the cowhide out, my Lanling Xiao clan has stood for hundreds of years, in fact, there is no such thing." Don't fool me. If you kill me, there will be a new patriarch in the Lanling Xiao clan. Hibernate for decades, and when you die, you will still be a hegemon. ”

Li Ziqi smiled, "Annexing your family's property will leave the Xiao clan with no rice to eat; All Xiao sinners are not allowed to be in my Tang Dynasty, so that the Xiao clan has no official to do...... Soon, many of them set up their own doors and refused to call themselves Lanling Xiao anymore. ”

Old Man Xiao burst into tears, "You guys are too ruthless, too ruthless!" This is to kill my Xiao family and show it to everyone! Even if I die, I don't have the shame to go underground to see my ancestors and ancestors......"

Immediately afterwards, a team of soldiers rushed in and began to raid the Xiao family.

Eighteen Niang felt bored, so she and Li Ziqi were about to leave, but they saw a red figure standing on the corner of the street, but it was Xu Runiang.

Xu Runiang saw Eighteen Niang looking over, walked forward quickly, and made a big salute, "Niangniang, Mei Niang, she?" Is she dead? ”

"She used smallpox to harm people and died of smallpox." Eighteen Niang said lightly, because of Xiao Meiniang, even with her good impression of Xu Runiang, she has faded a lot.

Xu Runiang shed tears in two lines, "Mei Niang, she is actually a good girl, she is a woman, how can she twist her father and brother?" At that time, she also whispered to me that she was not pleased with His Majesty at all, but was pleased with Uncle Guo. From the day her uncle was admitted to the top prize and played on the street, she was happy with her uncle. She said that she would never say it in her life, that she would obey the family's arrangement, marry the person they asked her to marry, and then live her life with the thought of her uncle. ”

Xu Runiang said emotionally, but Eighteen Niang only felt disgusting.

If she was like this, why did she design Shen Yao in the end? People are always duplicitous, which is easier said than done.

"If she had been a good girl, she would rather kill herself than harm so many people with smallpox."

Eighteen Niang said, got into the carriage with Li Ziqi, and left the Xiao family, leaving Xu Runiang alone, stunned in place.

Li Ziqi suddenly had a flash of inspiration and asked, "How do you say you will marry this Xu Runiang to Li Kuo?" That way she doesn't have to keep an eye on me. ”

Eighteen Niang shook her head, "The Xu family has military power in their hands. Li Kuo has pretended to be stupid for so many years and deceived everyone, it can be seen that he is not a simple-minded person, don't give him a chance, otherwise you are likely to really become a loner. Some people just don't stand the test. ”

Li Ziqi nodded, "What you said is reasonable. There is no elder in this palace, so it is better to leave this matter to the mother-in-law. ”

"That's very good. Mother walked among the houses of each family, and it couldn't be easier to choose a suitable girl for Li Kuo. The two talked about things, and soon arrived at today's second destination, Zhenping Wangfu.

Looking at the familiar plaque and the familiar vermilion lacquer copper nail gate, Li Ziqi was a little discouraged.

From his previous life to this life, he has lived in this courtyard for more than 30 years, and he is too familiar with every grass and tree in it.

Before he knew his life experience, he also used to regard the people inside as his relatives, and regarded Li Zhen, the king of Zhenping, as the greatest father in his heart.

However, Li Zhen is also his mother-killing enemy, the enemy of stealing his family and destroying his family, this kind of feeling is really too complicated, and it is a place that is difficult to touch in his heart.

"Get out of the car, Eighteen Niang, it's time to do it today."
