Chapter 236

Lu Xuanyu noticed that Lu Liucheng beside him looked distressed. "Cheng Cheng, what's wrong?"

"I'm going to kill him," Lu Liucheng said through gritted teeth as he ran towards the courtyard. He was intercepted by Old Marquis Lu, who had rushed over upon hearing the news.

"Great-grandfather, let me go. I'll kill her, I'll kill her!" Lu Liucheng had witnessed his mother being stabbed, and an infinite rage welled up inside him.V/\IssịT n0(v)eL/b(i)(n).co/m for the b/est novel reading experi/en/ce

"Lu Liucheng, is this how I taught you, to be rash and impulsive?" Old Marquis Lu shouted loudly, startling Lu Liucheng. But Lu Liucheng remained silent, still trying to rush out. It took great effort for Old Marquis Lu to restrain him.

Inside the room, Xiao Changning had already disinfected and removed the knife from Li Xia's back. Upon seeing the cold glint of the blade, Qiu Ling handed over a tray to hold the dagger. "The dagger is poisoned, be careful." These words made Xu Xinyue, who was standing outside the room, grow anxious.

Lu Liucheng, who was also outside, heard this and tried to rush back into the room. Lu Xuanyu held him back tightly, preventing him from entering. "Sister-in-law, don't be impulsive."

"What kind of poison is it? Is there an antidote?" Lu XuanNing asked anxiously while holding Li Xia's hand.

"Don't worry, your wife has taken antidote pills before. This poison won't affect her," Xiao Changning replied. Zhou Heng had mentioned Li Xia taking antidote pills once before.

However, what Xiao Changning didn't say was that although Li Xia wasn't poisoned, the special ability she had been suppressing was starting to erupt, and her condition was very poor.

After treating and bandaging the wound, Li Hui, who had received the news, hurried over. The news of a meritorious female general being stabbed on the street had already spread.

After confirming that Li Xia's condition was stable, Li Hui took away the half-dead Xu Yiyou.

Originally, Li Hui had planned to leave a way out for certain people. Now that was no longer necessary. Daring to hurt his sister, this time he would investigate thoroughly. He wouldn't let any evil forces escape.

"It's all my fault," Xu Xinyue blamed herself. If she hadn't asked Li Xia to go to the door to greet the children, perhaps this wouldn't have happened.

"Mother, sister is a female general, she'll be fine," Wang Hong comforted Xu Xinyue maturely.

Lu Liucheng, taking advantage of Lu Xuanyu's inattention, ran in and threw himself beside Li Xia, looking at her unconscious and very weak form. "Mother, how are you?"

Li Xia's injury had a great impact on Lu Liucheng. His eyes were still red, but he stubbornly refused to let a single tear fall.

"You dare to come here? You've harmed my daughter, and you still dare to show up. Let me tell you, Madam Jiang, if anything happens to Xia'er, I won't let the Xu and Wu families off the hook," Xu Xinyue grabbed Madam Jiang's collar and snarled.

"Aunt, what are you talking about?" Madam Jiang was completely bewildered.

Madam Wu and Madam Ning were also confused. They stepped forward, trying to make Xu Xinyue release Madam Jiang's collar. But Xu Xinyue, in her rage, wouldn't listen to them. Instead, she gripped tighter, and Madam Jiang was on the verge of suffocation.

Qiu Chan finally stepped forward to separate them. Wang Hong, who had received the news, hurried over. "Mother, taking care of sister is the most important thing now. Brother-in-law and Brother Li won't let these people off," he said.

"Hong'er, what on earth is going on?" Madam Jiang also felt angry, but thinking of the men in her family, she could only suppress her anger and step forward to inquire gently, wanting to understand the situation.

"My sister was assassinated, and the assassin was Xu Yiyou," Wang Hong looked at Madam Jiang.

"Impossible!" Madam Jiang and Madam Wu cried out in unison. How could this be? Now the three women from the Xu family also understood why the men of their family had been arrested.

"Sister, I didn't know about this. How could Yiyou...?" Madam Jiang couldn't believe this was true. She wanted to say Xu Xinyue was joking. But Xu Xinyue's murderous gaze indicated that everything was true. But why would this happen? Madam Wu was also trembling all over, wondering how this could be.

"Cousin Hong, how is the Marchioness now?" Madam Ning, the calmest, asked. If Li Xia was alright, things might still be manageable. If not, Madam Ning didn't know what would happen to them.

"Get out!" Xu Xinyue directly ordered them to leave. She didn't want to see these people for another moment.

"Sister/Aunt," the three women still wanted to say something, but were frightened by Xu Xinyue's murderous glare.

Forcefully escorted out, they noticed the hateful gazes of the servants of the Mansion of Marquis of Pacifying the South. From this, they guessed that Li Xia's condition was very serious. The three women stood at the gates of the mansion, unable to enter but not knowing where else they could go to plead.

A carriage from Li Manor arrived. Mrs. Lu had wanted to come as soon as she received the news last night, but the city gates were closed. She had spent an anxious night. Early in the morning, she rushed over, supported by Madam Bao as she got off the carriage. Seeing the Li Manor carriage, a servant came forward to pay respects. Mrs. Lu asked urgently as she walked towards the mansion, "How is Xia Xia?"

"Doctor Xiao is still trying to save her," the servant's answer startled Mrs. Lu, making her steps unsteady. A whole night had passed, and they were still trying to save her.

These words also frightened the three women outside the gate, causing them to collapse to the ground.

"Yiyou, why did you do this? What on earth did Wu Feng do?" Madam Ning grabbed Madam Wu and shouted. Why would Xu Yiyou do such a thing? Wasn't this pushing the Xu family towards a dead end?

"I don't know!" Madam Wu's voice was filled with grievance. She had no idea what was going on.
