Xie Liu replied, “Young Master Xie, there have been no movements from Majesty Kang and Majesty Huang.”
“I know. Although they’re not doing anything right now, this situation won’t last forever. They are also waiting for an opportunity. Get people to watch them closely. If there is anything wrong, inform me immediately.”
“Yes, sir.”
As Xie Limo arranged and sent down instructions, his expression this time was especially stern. Xie Wu and Xie Liu understood that this would implicate the future situation in the imperial capital.
This would be the deciding factor as to whether the power of the imperial capital would fall into the hands of the Xie family.
However, they were furious. There were actually people who spoke badly about Young Madam. As subordinates, they were on the verge of exploding, and Young Master Xie must be feeling bad as well.
When Xie Limo watched the news and saw the rumors, he had the urge to kill everyone, but he held back in the end.
That night, when Yun Bixue was asleep, Xie Limo instructed Yun Dong to take care of her while he personally went to the Jiang family.
When Old Master Jiang was feeling gleeful inside, he saw the person who was standing by his bedside, staring coldly at him. His face paled several shades, and he fell from the bed.
Old Master Jiang wanted to call for the guards but no matter how much he yelled, nobody came.
Old Master Jiang was scared. Xie Limo was clad entirely in black, and a murderous aura cloaked him. As someone who had seen many things at his ripe age, he never knew a person’s aura was capable of scaring the wits out of someone.
“Young Master Xie, this old person did not know you were coming. It’s my negligence!”
“Old Master Jiang, have you been feeling happy recently?”
Hearing those chilly words, Old Master Jiang could feel the shivers running down his spine. Even if he wanted to force himself to calm down, his heart couldn’t help but tremble.
“Young….Young Master Xie, this old man doesn’t understand what you mean.”
Xie Limo fiddled with the dagger in his hands and said slowly, “It’s okay if you don’t understand. All’s good as long as I do. Old Master Jiang, you’re still too green to play with me.”
Xie Limo despised Old Master Jiang.
The entire scene of being looked down upon angered Old Master Jiang greatly. “Young Master Xie, this old man truly didn’t do anything. I’ve always been strategizing for the Jiang family.”
“Oh? So what you came to at the end of your strategizing was to forget your roots and to betray the Xie family?”
“No, no. This old man doesn’t dare.”
With that one statement, Old Master Jiang kneeled down on the ground. With the offense of him betraying the Xie family marked on him, if they truly wanted to pursue it, the whole Jiang family wouldn’t be able to survive past tonight. He has never seen the methods of the Xie family, but he had asked around and knew that their methods were cruel.
Thinking about it caused him to shiver.
Xie Limo did not care whether Old Master Jiang was begging for mercy or if he admitted his faults. Looking at him scared out of wits did not make him feel happier either.
He despised everyone who tried to harm Yun Bixue. If it wasn’t because he could no longer hold in his fury, he would have never come personally.
He was an indifferent person who did not care for much, so arranging for things was like playing a game of well-calculated chess. No matter how much the Jiang family struggled, they were already on the chess board. But this time, the Jiang family courted their deaths, so they would be reaching their ends sooner.
He only cared about one person—his wife. It was a pity that Old Master Jiang couldn’t see that and crossed his lowest line.
When Old Master Jiang was breaking down, Xie Limo threw the dagger over. “Make a choice tonight. Between you and Jiang Shantao, only one of you can live.”
