The Soldier King Becomes a Useless Little Girl

Chapter 330 - 329: Abuse of Vigilante Justice

Chu Beiqing might be foolish, but he is no idiot.

These wounds, these people, each matter is set in stone.

After counting the last injury, the faces of the Chu Family’s elders could no longer hide their dismay.

"What excellent brotherly respect and filial piety from the uncles, there should be no issues with me speaking of splitting the family now, right? If you have any objections, we might as well take this matter to the Emperor to seek judgment, and talk about the injuries my father has endured these past years at the Chu Mansion."

Grand Uncle scolded.

"Chu Tianyi, what exactly is going on here?"

Chu Tianyi wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

"Uncles, please do not believe her nonsense; my elder brother is not in his right mind, he must have been bewitched by someone to spout such words."

"Whether it’s true or false, we will know once we speak before the Emperor. My father is pitiable, he has toiled selflessly for Longteng Country, and yet he suffers bullying. The Emperor will certainly stand up for us."

Xin Lin dabbed the corner of her eye, squeezing out a tear.

Silly Chu, at her side, also wiped his eye, imitating her quite convincingly.

"No, no, no, we are all family after all. Anything can be settled at home; there’s no need to take it to the Emperor."

Grand Uncle urged repeatedly.

The other two uncles also joined in persuading.

Emperor Longteng’s favoritism toward Chu Beiqing is well known.

He always instructed the members of the Chu Family to take good care of Chu Beiqing.

However, the members of the Chu Family harbored their self-interest, and who truly cared about the life or death of a fool?

If Xin Lin were truly to report to Emperor Longteng, it’s possible that everyone might be implicated.

"Do we just let my father be bullied like this? No, I must seek justice from the Emperor."

Xin Lin was persistent and started to leave, dragging her foolish father with her.

"No, no, no, let’s split the estate. In fact, the old master mentioned it to me before as well, but back then, the three brothers were not yet married, so the matter was put on hold. Now that the three brothers are all married and have started their own families, the division of the family estate is indeed possible."

Grand Uncle pulled at Xin Lin, while the two uncles blocked Chu Beiqing.

Xin Lin continued to clamor, intending to report to Emperor Longteng.

"Stop right there! What exactly do you want in order to not take this to the Emperor!"

Grand Uncle trembled with anger, his white beard quivering.

"One, split the family; two, punish the wrongdoers harshly."

Xin Lin said bluntly, digging in her heels.

"Show mercy, Grandson!"

"Grandson..."

Inside the Chu Mansion, a cacophony of cries for fathers and mothers rang out.

Those wrongdoers mentioned by Chu Beiqing, from house servants to guards, to stewards, each one was tied up.

"Father, do you see clearly, were these the people who bullied you?"

Xin Lin sat in the Grandmaster’s chair in the main hall, exuding an air of leisure and contentment.

Chu Tianyi stood to the side, filled with repressed anger, his eyes fixated on Xin Lin; if glares could kill, Xin Lin would have been riddled with holes.

The foolish father obediently sat to the side, repeatedly nodding his head.

"Ma Gang Leader, would you mind lending a hand? For anyone who has bullied my father once, disable an arm; for anyone who hit him twice, break both legs; for three times... disable their limbs and expel them from the Chu Mansion."

Xin Lin spoke calmly.

"Alright."

Ma Jingtian rolled up his sleeves, his face twisted into a sinister smile.

"Xin Lin, you dare! This is an abuse of private punishment!"

Chu Tianyi was incensed. These people, who dared to strike Chu Beiqing in secret, were naturally Chu Tianyi’s trusted henchmen.

"Not resorting to private punishment is also fine; I will go tell the Emperor right now, let him see the injuries on the body of his life-saving benefactor."

Xin Lin jumped up.

"Beat them! Beat them hard!"

The few elders at the side hesitated not a moment, unanimously encouraging.
