Chapter 1529: Useless Pawn

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Yuan Shuangrui was the only one who got into trouble, but once she did, the plight of the Yuan family started to go downhill. Chaos ensued within the family as well.

Conversely, Majesty Kang, Xiajun Yanting, calmed down when he saw such a situation.

“Your Majesty, this…?”

Xiajun Yanting’s gaze was calm and quiet. It was so quiet that it made a person’s heart shiver. After a while, he shook his head before marking a big cross with light strokes on a paper inscribed with the Yuan family’s name.

Xiajun Yanting’s personal assistant understood what this meant. Majesty Kang was abandoning the Yuan family and did not intend to help them this time.

The advisor at the side said, “Your Majesty, this incident was instigated by the Qin family. We can totally expel the Qin family to protect the Yuan family.”

Xiajun Yanting waved his hand and said in a somber voice, “The same thing cannot happen twice. If we protect the Yuan family again, it will be too obvious. This will cause an uproar in the capital and possibly even the whole Country. A person in power cannot do this.”

“But the Yuan family is also very important to Your Majesty.”

Xiajun Yanting said coldly, “No matter how important they are, they are merely just a useless pawn now.”

“Understood.”

When Yuan Shuangrui was arrested, she cooperated peacefully. She just waited quietly instead of crying or making a scene.

She was also analyzing the whole situation in her head. She felt that everything was like a web. She had been placed on a web right from the start, and she had no way of breaking free from it.

Even if she did not do anything, she would still end up like this one day. Everything she had done to Qin Huailing when she was young had already sealed her fate. It was inevitable that he would use all means to seek revenge.

Indeed, it was her fault by panicking too easily. If she had kept her cool, Han Mubai would not have abandoned her, and Lu Suyan would not have bitten the Yuan family back. She would not have been captured so quickly.

She was waiting, waiting for the people from the Yuan family to come and bail her out and save her.

However, there was not a single bit of news even after three days. There was not a single soul who went to visit her. This finally unsettled Yuan Shuangrui.

She anxiously asked the guard about it only to find out that the Yuan family was in a state of conflict now. Everyone wanted to fight for the position of heir, and many people even absconded with the money and fled to other countries.

Because of this, many servants of the Yuan family offered all they knew to the police to save their lives.

This time, all the secrets of the Yuan family had been exposed completely. The news started to report full-page news on everything regarding them. It could be said that the Yuan family was like a see-through wall as every bit of their privacy had been dug out and exposed.

No one could save the Yuan family now.

At this point, the Han family also came out publicly to deny the marriage union, cutting off their ties with the Yuan family completely. They even announced publicly that they were willing to cooperate fully with investigations on the Yuan family.

After knowing all these, Yuan Shuangrui fell on the floor with a loud thud. The back of her head hit the floor hard, causing her to lose consciousness.

A few days later, most of the Yuan family had already fled. By the time the police went over, the Yuan family had almost turned into an empty shell.

The Ministry of Finance also confiscated all the assets under the Yuan family.

All the noble families were shocked beyond words by the demise of the Yuan family. They felt that everything had taken such a dramatic turn. The downfall of a noble family happened so fast that one could not even react in time.

Everyone also came to the shocking realization that within half a year, the An family and the Jiang family had both run into troubles, while the Lu family and the Yuan family were wiped out. Everything happened too fast. It was as if there was a pair of hands directing all these behind the scenes.

None of them knew who this pair of hands belonged to, though.

When Yun Bixue saw the news reports, her expression changed a little. She said to Xie Limo, “I didn’t expect it to be so fast?”

Xie Limo said impassively, “Qin Huailing had been holding it in for so many years. He would not have come unprepared. I knew from the start that the Yuan family would be wiped out by the Qin family.”
