294 For the big picture

Ji Xianglan stared at Liu Dong Ming, he wanted to tell him that he wouldn’t be able to get away with this since his father will definitely make him suffer for what he did to him even the Ji family will not let him go without paying for what he was doing to him but he couldn’t the string was digging in his neck so hard that every time he moved his jaw he felt the string get an inch deeper in his skin.

“Are you trying to say that your father, will not let go of me?” Liu Dong Ming asked as he looked at Ji Xianglan who stared at him with bloodshot eyes and smiled sympathetically. ” You are right he will come after me, your father and uncle both of them but the thing is Lord Ji…what can they even do to me ?”

He asked with a slight raise of his brows and Ji Xianglan gurgled and choked on the blood that was filling his mouth.

Liu Dong Ming was right, so what if the Ji family knew that he was killed by him? What will they even do to Liu Dong Ming—— even if everyone knew that Liu Dong Ming was behind his killing without any evidence they would not be able to touch this man.

Just like how the Liu family would not be able to touch the Ji family regarding the death of Liu Fei Fei.

Ji Xianglan stared at Liu Dong Ming who was smiling softly at him with his eyes coldly staring at his struggling self as if he was watching a play and felt his breathing stagnate.

This was revenge. f𝚛e𝚎𝙬𝑒𝚋𝚗𝚘ѵ𝐞𝒍. c𝐨𝙢

Liu Dong Ming’s cold-blooded revenge on the Ji family for touching a member of the Liu family.

” Maybe your uncle forgot what happened after you touch my niece the last time,” Liu Dong Ming calmly remarked as if there was not a man hanging by a string in front of him with blood dripping down on the floor and continued to smile. ” This will be a very gentle reminder to him, in case he dares to do something like this again——”

.....

The smile slipped off his face and he very solemnly stated, ” I will end your Ji family. Once and for all even if I have to drag my broken body. Stay away from my children.”

With that, he coldly flicked his sleeves and walked out of the prison, his steps swift and unbothered even though he could hear the choking and pitiful sobs of Ji Xianglan behind him.

” Eldest Master Liu,” Liu Dong Ming’s aide rushed behind him as soon as Liu Dong Ming walked out of the prison, his face was full of worry as he looked at Liu Dong Ming. ” The Emperor will be angry, you know that he supports the Ji family.”

” Then he should be prepared to face my wrath as well,” Liu Dong Ming was rather calm as if he was talking about dealing with a child who did not know anything other than throwing a tantrum. ” If he is a puppet Emperor then he should be one till the end. ”

“But——”

” But what?” Liu Dong Ming turned to look at his aide and raised a brow. ” Do you want me to calmly let this matter go? They killed my daughter and interfered in between, surely they deserve to suffer what I am going through as well, right?”

” Master Liu, I understand but the others won’t think like this…they will think that you took advantage of the situation and attacked the Ji family,” the aide knew the scars of his master and the reason why he was like this but the thing was that the others did not know anything!

He hesitated for a while and then looked at Liu Dong Ming and said, ” To them …you are a heartless man who did not care about consorting Liu, till the end.”

Liu Dong Ming paused in his stride as he turned to look at his aide who immediately lowered his head and apologized, ” Forgive me for overstepping my boundaries, my lord.”

“It’s fine but don’t repeat what you have said in front of me again,” Liu Dong Ming coldly stated, everyone in the Liu family knew that only by staying away from the children of his family will be able to watch them grow up.

He looked down at his hand and hid the blackened finger marks on his wrist before breathing heavily. He truly hoped that the child will be able to bring an end to all of this because he was tired already.

” And you don’t have to worry about his majesty either,” he added as he raised his head and looked at the moon that was shining brightly in the sky. ” Even if he was to stand next to the Ji family, he will not be able to do anything.”

…..

Liu Dong Ming was right, there was nothing that the Ji family could do.

Ji Yang who found out that Ji Xianglan was dragged to prison because of interfering with the investigation of Consort Liu’s case and Liu Dong Ming’s sudden move that took them by surprise rushed to the imperial palace upon hearing the news.

But this matter was no longer under wraps, many guards and the maids have seen Ji Xianglan being dragged away and the rumour that the Ji family’s illegitimate son was behind the killings of two consorts was already spread all over the palace.

Ji Yang knew that he was in trouble thus, he hurriedly rushed to the Grand Dowager Empress’s palace wanting to ask for her help but the Grand Dowager Empress refused to see him.

Now, that the matter was so blown up, she could no longer stand next to her nephew and support him. If she was to take his side then Zhai Tianyu might suspect her as well.

The Grand Dowager Empress was quick to draw a line and so were the others. They did not want to be involved in a mess with the Ji family in case they catch the unnecessary attention of the Emperor.

Ji Yang and his brother who was running around the entire palace were as helpless as headless chickens but soon they no longer needed to trouble themselves because the news of Ji Xianglan’s death spread all over the palace by the morning.
