The Sickly Scion’s Petite Wife Is Sweet And Cool Chapter 305 - Anger, Liu Piaopiao Changed

Chapter 305: Anger, Liu Piaopiao Changed
The citizens of Xunyang City were in an uproar as they looked at the dozen or so people tied up with hemp ropes and dragged along by horses.
When they heard General Meng mention these people’s crimes at the top of his lungs, they all glared at them with red eyes. Some even picked up the things in their hands and threw them at those people.
As for those who did not believe him, Lord An Le and Young Master Shen were both at the front of the team. Even if they did not believe General Meng, they would believe the two of them.
Besides, a large group of people had left the city yesterday night. There were also soldiers surrounding the Liu family.!!
Everyone saw this. At that time, everyone wondered if the Huns were attacking again.
Unexpectedly, it had something to do with the recent disappearance of the girls in Xunyang City.
In the past, they only thought that it was the Huns who did it. No matter how angry they were, they had nowhere to vent their anger. They did not expect it to be someone from Xunyang City. How could they stay calm?
“Return my daughter to me, you bastards!”
“You’ll all die a horrible death. How can you do such a heartless thing?”
“My daughter was only seven years old when she disappeared. Now that three years have passed, I don’t know where she is. How can you guys still be alive and well?”
“What Great Philanthropist? He’s just a demon. He captured our children and made us grateful to that family for so many years.”
Many people who had lost their daughters cursed and wept.
Even if they haven’t lost family members, they were still furious. If not for the soldiers stopping them, they would have rushed up and torn those people apart.
Even so, the people behind the horses were beaten until their heads bled.
Besides, after those girls found out that it was the Liu family who did it, they treated Liu Piaopiao badly.
In order to avoid causing trouble, Liu Piaopiao could only let Mo Yuan bring her along on the horse.
With an effort, she straightened up and sat on her horse, her head covered by a black veil.
Liu Piaopiao looked at the crazy appearances of these commoners through the veil. The fingertips of her hands that were clenched tightly in front of her turned white, and her body kept trembling.
This was the first time she realized how difficult it was to straighten her back.
She closed her eyes. This was why she had secretly stuffed the matchstick into her parents’ hands.
She had already expected this outcome. However, looking at these people and imagining her parents being treated like this, her heart couldn’t help but ache.
Their family had clearly done so many good deeds and saved so many people. Why couldn’t these people remember the Liu family’s kindness?
The two nannies, Nanny Cai and Nanny Liu, were old. They walked at the back and covered their heads with their hands while trembling.
They regretted it. If they had known earlier, they would have killed themselves like Master and Madam.
Shen Yijia rode with Song Jingchen and looked at the crazy commoners. She tilted her head and asked Song Jingchen, “Aren’t you alerting the enemy by doing this?”
What if there were still accomplices in the city?
“There was time yesterday, so the head monk had probably already made the necessary arrangements. Even if there are accomplices, they’ve probably already left Xunyang,” Song Jingchen explained patiently.
As for why the head monk didn’t leave, he probably felt that it was better to be quiet than to move. The chances of him escaping were too low.
Besides, he had already thrown out two baits, which was enough to attract everyone’s attention.
If the two of them were lucky enough not to be captured, he would be safe.
Originally, things had indeed developed as he had expected. However, he did not expect Qian Youde to appear out of nowhere. He knew that the two of them were not tight-lipped.
In order not to expose the person behind him, he could only choose to burn himself and remove the evidence with fire.
“Besides…” Song Jingchen paused and glanced somewhere before continuing, “This matter actually involves the capital. We have to alert a certain someone.”
When the perpetrator was anxious and made a mistake, there would be an opening to strike.
Shen Yijia followed his gaze and seemed to understand.
Lord Zhou sat in the inn room and looked at the chaos below through the window. He ordered someone to ask around. When the person who had gone out to gather information returned, he understood the reason.
“These people are really inhumane.” Lord Zhou sneered and turned his gaze back to Shangguan Han, who was at the front. His dark eyes narrowed. “Lord An Le appeared at the right time.”
Did he see that they had finished distributing the food?
After Shangguan Han expressed that the criminals would be publicly executed in two days, the commoners retreated.
After returning to the Prince’s residence, Shangguan Han asked his maidservant to bring the girls to pack up. After they were done, he instructed someone to send them home.
Shen Yijia and the others naturally returned to the Shen residence. Furball, who had gone to the prince’s residence to eat for a few days, also returned.
For some reason, Furball had simply been lying down and not moving much recently. Otherwise, based on its past habits, it would have followed them long ago. Why would it stay at home obediently?
At first, Shen Yijia thought that it was sick, but after a few days of observation, she concluded that it was just too lazy.
It disappeared and went somewhere to sleep.
Since the Liu family was investigated, the servants inside were naturally captured and questioned one by one.
Shen Yijia originally wanted Liu Piaopiao to stay in the Shen residence for the time being, but Liu Piaopiao insisted on going home.
She could only get someone to send her back. She guessed that Liu Piaopiao probably didn’t want to see her, so she asked Mo Yuan to make food and send it over every day.
She thought that Liu Piaopiao would not come looking for her. Unexpectedly, on the afternoon of the execution, Mo Yuan came to report that Miss Liu had come.
Shen Yijia looked up from the paper and glanced at Song Jingchen in a daze, as if she was asking if she had heard wrongly.
For the past few days, she had been doing nothing. She had been obediently writing at home and didn’t go anywhere. She must have written something wrong.
Song Jingchen chuckled and took the brush from her hand. “Go.”
Shen Yijia scratched her head in embarrassment and followed Mo Yuan to the reception pavilion.
Liu Piaopiao sat there in white. However, she seemed to have lost a lot of weight in the past few days.
Seeing Shen Yijia, she forced a smile. “Sister Jiajia.”
Shen Yijia paused for a moment. She felt that something was wrong. She shook her head and sat down opposite her. She cleared her throat and said, “You seem to have lost weight again.”
Liu Piaopiao smiled bitterly. “It’s good to be thinner. Didn’t you say that? I’ll look good if I’m thinner.”
Shen Yijia said, “Alright.”
Although Shen Yijia knew that she did nothing wrong, she still felt a little uncomfortable looking at Liu Piaopiao.
Liu Piaopiao treated her as a friend. In the end, she eavesdropped on her conversation and even snitched on her, causing her family to fall apart.
The Liu couple indeed deserved to die, but Liu Piaopiao was innocent. Shen Yijia really did not know how to face Liu Piaopiao. She felt that it was too difficult for her.
These few days, she had even thought about what she would do if her beautiful husband did something bad. She decided she would join him if he ever did.
Thinking about it this way, she felt that she wasn’t a good person either. This was awkward.
The two of them in the reception pavilion were silent for a moment. Liu Piaopiao looked at Mo Yuan. “Can I talk to Jiajia alone?”
