The Ferocious Wife of the Great Lord

Chapter 3: Chapter 3. Where am I?



When the bride's palanquin arrived at the residence of the former Regent Tua Lie, the atmosphere was very lively but not a festive atmosphere like the wedding of the granddaughter of a former Chancellor, but rather the atmosphere was very tense.

There were so many soldiers from the empire as well as officers from the yamen who had surrounded the residence of the former Chancellor Tua Lie at this time.

Pedestrians passing by the former Chancellor Lie's residence were curious but they were rudely chased away by the guards, "It is forbidden to approach the former Chancellor Lie's residence."

The attendants who were taking the bride's procession couldn't help but tremble with fear, they didn't have time to pay attention to the bride who was lying helplessly in the stretcher.

The maids immediately carried the bride into the bridal chamber, laid her down on the bright red bridal bed, covered her with a blanket, then rushed out again, closing the door to the room.

...

the other hand.

In the 25th century.

There was a girl who was running with all her might, behind her were many people chasing her.

The girl ran aimlessly, the traffic was heavy. The sound of car horns kept ringing as the girl passed by, almost getting hit by cars several times.

The car driver cursed angrily at the girl, "Hey, are you looking for death!"

But she didn't care. She kept running to avoid the people who were chasing her. Until suddenly a container truck appeared that couldn't be braked just like that when the girl jumped onto the main road to avoid the people who were chasing her.

Bang.. the collision was unavoidable. The girl was immediately thrown and hit the asphalt hard, blood pouring from her head.

The people who were chasing him arrived at the scene, they were all stunned to see his body lying on the asphalt road with blood smeared all over his body.

The sound of an ambulance siren wailing loudly in the distance could be heard roaring towards the scene of the incident, the large highway became crowded with people chasing it as well as the police who immediately blocked the scene of the incident.

The girl vaguely heard someone calling her name.

"You hang on!"

"The ambulance will be here soon!"

"Damn you guys!" the girl muttered before closing her eyes forever.

...

The Main Street of the capital of Emperor Jiang's reign.

A company of officers from the yamen was seen rushing along Xiwu's main street.

The merchants and pedestrians immediately moved aside, avoiding them. Even the horse-drawn carriages stopped at the side of the road to make way for them. They seemed to be used to this kind of situation.

Once the officers from the yamen were far away, the streets returned to their usual bustle.

"What's wrong with this yamen official that he's rushing out?" asked a passerby to the shop owner who was serving him.

"I don't know what else will happen, but this is the sixth time I've seen it," the shop owner replied.

"Is it still related to the rumor of the rebellion by the First Prince?" the buyer asked with a curious expression on his face.

"It's possible, weren't some of the residences of the First Prince's faction supporters already captured?" the shopkeeper replied.

"Is that so?" The buyer was slightly stunned, then continued, "Then who will be arrested this time? Don't tell me it's the residence of the former Old Chancellor Lie!"

"That's right! Who else but the residence of the former Old Chancellor Lie. It's just that I regret it, they had just held a wedding party for their first grandson, Young Master Lie Pei Nan. Before the wedding ceremony could even be held, they were arrested by officers from the Ministry of Justice who were envoys from the Emperor," said the shop owner before continuing his words, he paused for a moment.

"What a pity, the former Old Chancellor Lie has fought for our Great Xia Dynasty his entire life, but now…." He exhaled deeply.

"The accusation of rebellion is no joke. Moreover, the family of former Chancellor Tua Lie are close relatives on the First Prince's mother's side," the buyer replied.

Another buyer added, "The bride was even more unlucky. Before the wedding ceremony was held, she was forcibly taken away by officers from the Ministry of Justice."

Everyone who knew about all these events could only talk behind his back and in secret. They did not know for sure what really happened. Did the First Prince really rebel? Life in the palace was too full of intrigue.

Regardless of whether the First Prince really did rebel or not, bad luck would still follow the couple throughout their lives.

Everyone sighed heavily. Pitying the former Chancellor Tua Lie's residence and the bride and groom.

Such secret conversations not only happened on the main street of the capital, but also in various places in the capital in secret. They sympathized with the tragedy that befell the residence of the former Chancellor Tua Lie.

...

Since the First Prince was accused of rebellion, all of his supporting factions had been arrested by the emperor and the residence of the former Old Chancellor Lie was the one that was hit by the misfortune this time.

Former Chancellor Old Lie, General Lie Nan Gong and Lie Pei Nan himself were taken away on the day of Lie Pei Nan's wedding.

The imperial army had even surrounded their residence and did not allow anyone to enter or leave the residence. So there was no news that they could receive, either from inside or outside.

This made everyone in the former Old Chancellor Lie's residence panic and worry. They were worried about their fate, what if the Old Chancellor, General Lie Nan Gong and the noble Young Master Lie Pei Nan were sentenced to death for conspiring with the First Prince to rebel.

Mrs. Lie also immediately fell ill since the three men in her house were forcibly taken by the imperial soldiers so that they could not carry out their duties. This is what made the people in the residence even worse.

The residence became chaotic. They worked unfocused, afraid that their heads would also float with their master.

...

In the corner near the bridal chamber, two young maids were chatting while standing and looking at the flower garden in the courtyard which, although beautiful, was no longer attractive to their eyes.

"I heard that Old Lord Chancellor has also left the residence?"

"That's right, the officers on guard initially wanted to forbid him from leaving, but who knows what he was talking about, so they allowed him to leave."

It turned out that Old Lord Chancellor Lie was not forcibly taken away along with General Lie Nan Gong and Young Lord Lie Pei Nan, but went of his own accord to meet the Emperor.

The two maids exhaled heavily almost simultaneously.

Then the maid wearing a green ribbon hairpin said, "Can Old Master release Master General and Young Master?" his tone was hopeful.

The other servant replied, "Surely the Old Master can release the General and the Young Master."

All the residents of the residence greatly respected the Old Master, former Chancellor Lie.

They knew that the Old Master, former Chancellor Lie, had fought on the battlefield with the late emperor. He had spent his entire life serving the Great Xia Dynasty.

After the country was at peace, there was no more war, and the government led by the previous emperor was running stably, he even participated in the success of the appointment of the newest Emperor until he was in a stable position on his throne, only then did Old Lord Chancellor Lie resign from the imperial court.

It could be said that most of the development in the Great Xia Dynasty was his great service as the right hand of the previous Emperor.

Therefore, all the residents of the residence felt calm, because they believed that if the Old Master, former Chancellor Lie, intervened, all the problems would be resolved.

The two maids chatted some more, laughing and joking as they walked towards their workplace.

...

Inside the bright red bridal chamber with beautiful bridal ornaments. A figure was seen lying down wearing a bright red wedding dress, her eyes were open.

Shen Fei Ning frowned, she had been awake for a while and had heard the entire conversation between the two maids.

Blinking his big eyes he said, "Where am I?"
