After Transmigration, Her Whole Family Are Villains

...

The New Year was supposed to be a joyous occasion.

But due to the incident involving the Fifth Prince,

everyone could only celebrate in secret.

Who would have thought the Ministry of Justice would be so efficient?

The speed of the case resolution was astonishing.

It also caused some criminals to panic.

At the very least, it served as a deterrent.

It might have even inadvertently saved a few poor souls in some corners.

Life's circumstances are unpredictable.

Take the Sixth Prince, for instance. Just a few days ago, he was the most likely candidate for the next Crown Prince.

Now, he's turned into a murderer, killing his own brother, devoid of ethics, worse than a beast.

The news spread quickly through the streets and alleys.

In the Seventh Prince's residence, Jiang Wan suffered a minor injury. She was stabbed by a sword, but it wasn't serious, just a scratch.

It was because Lu Jiuzhang had never done anything like this before. In his extreme anger, he didn't seize the opportunity well.

He couldn't even kill properly.

If one strike doesn't work, at least one should know how to follow up.

Killing a person is indeed not easy, as the victim will struggle and dodge, unlike a fish that can be killed with a few blows.

Moreover, Jiang Wan felt that Heaven was helping her. She was actually very panicked at that moment, forgetting to dodge, but an earthquake suddenly made her body retreat, avoiding a fatal injury.

She only got a minor wound.

But she developed a heart palpitation problem.

Her heart would race uncontrollably.

In front of her aunt, she looked pale. Hearing about the death of the Fifth Prince, she was startled, and her heart started racing again.

It felt like a dream she had, with similar chaos.

The Fifth Prince died, and the Sixth Prince was arrested.

Then there was news of a major defeat at the border? No, the timing seems a bit off.

It always felt like it didn't match up.

Perhaps it was because this time, Meng Shaoxia was detained in Jingzhou for three years, delaying everything.

Originally, Meng Shaoxia should have already been a renowned young general in the Capital City by now.

Old General Meng should have also passed away by now.

But the death of the Fifth Prince and the arrest of the Sixth Prince align with this.

Next, they might hear news of Meng Shaoxia's death in battle.

Jiang Wan's heart raced.

She felt both excited and nervous.

She was glad that when Jiang Changtian interrogated her, she didn't reveal much, just some general details, as her dreams were fragmented, and she could only recall specifics when faced with certain situations.

She was still determined to marry Chu Xi.

Her aunt had already agreed.

But now, with the mourning for her grandmother and the death of the prince, it might be delayed for a long time.

Fortunately, her status was already secured. The Dong girl she considered a threat might have been married off to someone else.

Everything was moving in a positive direction.

In the Seventh Prince's residence, Jiang Wan was very low-key, spending her days with her aunt. Her aunt initially didn't understand why she insisted on marrying Chu Xi.

Their relationship was a bit awkward.

But because of Concubine Song, their relationship improved.

Indeed, sometimes having an extra enemy isn't a bad thing.

However, in her memories, there was no Concubine Song in the residence.

Jiang Wan felt that her mind was blank when it came to major events. She didn't dare to interfere.

She knew too little and could only focus on her own small world.

She was very restrained.

...

Everyone knew the news.

The Jiang family also knew.

Mianmian was a bit panicked.

This was indeed the Capital City.

Just a couple of days ago, her father was still drinking with them.

Now, one of his drinking buddies is dead, and the other is in jail.

It's terrifying.

Although they had always heard about the fierce palace and official struggles, they had never seen it firsthand.

But how long had their family been in the Capital City?

The Crown Prince was confined, the Fifth Prince died, and the Sixth Prince was arrested.

This... the attrition rate of princes is too high.

Fortunately, her father is just an adopted son, not a biological one.

Princess Huiyun couldn't do anything about it. Why did she live so long? Because she didn't meddle in other people's business.

Was her brother able to become the emperor because he was lively and lovely? No.

Was her father able to become the emperor because he was kind and gentle? No.

Every dynasty has gone through this.

A princess getting involved in such matters is just asking for a short life.

She didn't participate herself and also advised her son.

"Don't get involved in the succession of the royal family. After all, someone will eventually ascend the throne."

Qin Luoxia agreed: "Mother is right. It's like the sons of a wealthy family fighting over inheritance. They fight so hard that it's like they're beating each other's brains out. There's no right or wrong, and none of them seem like good people."

Jiang Changtian nodded: "I'll listen to Mother. I definitely won't get involved. But Mother, the Seventh Prince seems to have a problem with me. After all, I killed his mother-in-law, and the Seventh Prince is known for his love for his wife. He took a concubine, but he hasn't even stepped into her room once. If he ascends the throne, he will probably seek revenge on me. I'm worried he'll want to kill me."

Princess Huiyun felt a bit stifled when Jiang Changtian mentioned the Seventh Prince.

Because she had taken good care of the Seventh Prince and Jiang Yuluan.

She rarely treated people well, but she had definitely invested a lot in this couple.

Now, instead of benefiting her son, it seemed to be turning into a revenge against him.

"Don't worry, your uncle detests the Seventh Prince. He won't let him inherit the throne. Anyone else has a chance, but he definitely doesn't." Princess Huiyun confidently said.

Jiang Changtian thought to himself, you know nothing. Jiang Wan, with her prophetic dreams, has already said that the Seventh Prince will ascend the throne.

Alas.

Forget it, his mother will just live in her own world of confusion.

It would be best if she could die quickly and painlessly.

Mianmian continued to tell the next part of the story today.

When Mianmian said, "After Duan Yu mastered the Northern Darkness Divine Skill and Lingbo Microstep, he escaped and accidentally ate the Zhuhong Toad, becoming immune to all poisons,"

Qin Luoxia thought, could her Elder Sister Yu have also accidentally eaten something like that? After all, Elder Sister Yu was a glutton and put everything in her mouth, even knowing it was poison, just to taste it. Now, she was relieved that Elder Sister Yu's temperament would make her safe from being poisoned in the harem. She heard the Fifth Prince was poisoned to death, which was quite frightening.

And about the Northern Darkness Divine Skill and Lingbo Microstep, if she could learn them, wouldn't she be able to leap over walls and roofs, running to the border overnight to see if her son was okay?

Jiang Changtian thought, they must not let the emperor hear this story, or he might order him to find these things to become immune to all poisons.

Princess Huiyun thought, Duan Yu's luck was indeed excellent, just like when she was young, wanting something and getting it easily, countless treasures within reach...

She used to think she was the favored child of heaven, but now she felt that one's luck was probably fixed. If you used it up when you were young, you had less when you were old.

So now, she didn't pray for luck, just content with what she had.

Cong Brother diligently noted down the story, trying to make sense of it, as Mianmian sometimes spoke in a disorganized manner.

Mianmian never expected that she just wanted to amuse her grandmother, but now she had become a professional storyteller.

But she also enjoyed the feeling of being with her family, like when the whole family watched "Princess Pearl" together during winter nights. It was cold, and the plot was unforgettable (because it was replayed every summer), but what she remembered more was the atmosphere of being together.

She liked this feeling, with long nights stretching ahead.

"Once upon a time, there was a mountain... in the mountain lived a family... the man was surnamed Jiang, the wife surnamed Qin... 'The rosy clouds and solitary wild geese fly together, the autumn waters merge with the vast sky'... "

The people in the story were telling stories.

"Once upon a time, there was a mountain... in the mountain lived a family... there were the Four Great Villains..."
