The abandoned wife of the noble family, she is Black Heart Lotus

Chapter 41 Instigation
  Faced with Liu Chunhe's questioning, Xu Ningxuan couldn't utter a word for a long time.

He originally wanted to show off in front of the clan elders, but immediately lost face and could only stare helplessly.

Finally, he retorted dryly, "They just don't behave rightly..."

"Without any evidence, why are you convicting my sister?"

Liu Chunhe was unreasonable and unforgiving.

He knew in his heart that no evidence was needed to convict a person of a person's crime, only confirmation. But he was only an in-law, so he insisted on evidence.

As long as there is no evidence, no one can do anything to his sister.

Otherwise, it will be difficult for him to get along with the Liu family.

Gu Deyin looked at Xu Ningxuan who was losing ground after being questioned. She knew that Xu Ningxuan was not Liu Chunhe's opponent, and her expression gradually became cold and serious.

Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Hua Chao outside the ancestral hall shaking his head at her in defeat, obviously feeling guilty for not being able to stop Liu Chunhe from breaking into the ancestral hall.

She waved her hand towards Hua Chao, telling her not to mind.

The eldest son of the Liu family cannot be stopped by Hua Chao and a few servants.

It seems that Liu Ruohe can still survive.

That's fine, but if you beat him to death with a stick, it would be meaningless.

She raised her eyebrows playfully, now that one of the miserable mandarin ducks had successfully landed, it would be unreasonable for the other to not shed some blood.

Xu Ningyu felt indescribably sad when he saw his sweetheart being protected behind him.

But that's okay, but he doesn't have the ability to protect her.

He lowered his head in a depressed mood. Now he was afraid that he would no longer be the heir to the throne.

While he was hesitating and confused, he suddenly felt something in his hand.

He lowered his head and saw that it was a short dagger. He suddenly looked up at Gu Deyin who handed him the dagger.

What does she mean?
  Gu Deyin noticed that the crowd was not paying attention, so she walked to Xu Ningyu's side.

She whispered, "Everyone knows how to commit suicide to prove their innocence. Why are you so stupid?"

The words were full of instigation.

Xu Ningyu said in disbelief, "How could you be so kind?"

Obviously doubting her intentions.

Gu Deyin sneered, "Who calls me unlucky? I have to be husband and wife with you. Husband is honored and wife is valued. Haven't you heard?"

You are unlucky, what good can I do?
  This is how Xu Ningyu understood Gu Deyin's words, and he frowned.

Why did he not believe that Gu Deyin had good intentions?
  But after looking at the dagger in his hand, he realized that there was no better solution at the moment, so he became worried.

I saw him suddenly shouting loudly, "I will never admit anything I haven't done -"

This caused everyone present to turn to look at him.

After attracting his attention, he continued with a sanctimonious look.

"For the sake of your position as the heir to the throne, you did not hesitate to fabricate a scandal between me and my sister-in-law. Your heart can be killed and your body can be destroyed!"

Then with lightning speed, he thrust the dagger in his hand into his chest.

Blood flowed out, frightening the female relatives in the room to scream and turn pale.

Mrs. Xu was the first to rush to her son, quickly took out her handkerchief and pressed her son's bleeding chest, saying sadly.

"It would be more painful for you to stab yourself than to stab your mother. Why are you suffering?"

"Mom, everything that's wrong is my fault. It's none of my sister-in-law's business. Don't embarrass her, a widow..."

At this point, he couldn't help but cough, and blood even flowed from the corner of his mouth.

Xu Ningyu was shocked. Did he really stab his heart? Originally he just wanted to pretend to scare people, but now he was scared to death.

Xu Xiaoli's face twitched, thinking that although he was not very smart, he was definitely not as stupid as his son.

Everyone in the Xu family looked at him as if he were a fool. To prove her innocence like this, a woman could only use it to blackmail a man to achieve her goal.

If a man uses it, it will only appear incompetent.

Xu Ningyu is really unworthy of being reused. If such a brainless person is appointed as the heir apparent, the Xu family will be in danger.

Xu Ningyu was originally worried that he had used too much force, but now that he saw the looks of his father and clan elders, he couldn't help but doubt himself, had he used the wrong method?
  Before he could figure it out, Gu Deyin's crying sounded.

"Husband, I never expected you to do this for my sister-in-law. Where will you put me?"

Voices of questioning and tears of blood.

Xu Ningyu looked at her in disbelief. Didn't she instigate him to do this?
  Why is she pretending to be innocent now?
  He looked at Gu Deyin in confusion, "You..."

"Yes, I was stupid. I always believed you were innocent. Now I finally understand the tricks between you. Your love is stronger than gold."

Gu Deyin said in a self-deprecating tone, and turned to Liu Ruohe, who had not yet reacted.

"Sister-in-law, how can I be sorry for you? There are so many men in the world, why do you want to poach me? Do you have to see me in pain to be happy?"

Liu Ruohe was suddenly knocked down, and when he reacted, Gu Deyin had already occupied the moral high ground.

He was so angry that he vomited blood again.

When Liu Chunhe saw his sister like this, he immediately pointed the finger at Gu Deyin.

"What nonsense are you talking about? You..."

Before he could finish speaking, Gu Deyin snatched his line.

"What about me? I'm a woman whose husband was robbed. Can't I even vent a few words?"

"Is your Liu family so overbearing? You actually teach women to seduce other people's husbands. I think the family tradition of your Liu family is just like that. Maybe it's all male thieves and female prostitutes..."

Liu Chunhe was scolded a lot, and it was the kind of scolding that was pointed at the nose, and he suddenly became very angry.

He twisted his wrist and made a "crackling" sound, threatening, "If you dare, say it again..."

Gu Deyin looked frightened and immediately hid behind Mrs. Xu, then stuck her head out to look at Liu Chunhe.

"This is the Xu family ancestral hall. Are you going to use force on me in the Xu family ancestral hall? Do you still have the Xu family in your eyes? Do you have any royal laws?"

These questions gave the men of the Xu family an instant reason to target Liu Chunhe.

He kept asking them for evidence before, but now it was their turn to ask him what on earth he wanted to do?
  Mrs. Xu stood up and said.

"Boy from the Liu family, no matter who you are, Mrs. Liu, she is a member of the Xu family when she marries into the Xu family. How to deal with her is also our Xu family's business."

"That's right, it's not our Xu family's turn to be your Liu family's turn to make the decision."

Xu Ningxuan took the opportunity to choke back and regain the face he had just lost.

Xu Xiaoli's face darkened and he acted like the head of the family.

"My dear nephew, this is my Xu family's ancestral hall. It is the place where my ancestors rest in peace. It is not suitable for you to be here. Please leave first."

The words were polite, but the tone was impolite.

The elder of the Xu family immediately agreed. Previously, it was difficult to argue with young people because of the airs of elders.

Nowadays, people are bullying you. If they don't say anything, how can they still deserve to be elders?
  Of course, if you get the chance, you'll get angry.

How could Liu Chunhe withstand the anger of this group of people?

Liu Ruohe closed her eyes sadly, and the good situation just now was gone.
