I was switched at birth after transmigrating into a book, but I used my superpowers to wreak havoc!

Chapter 173 The Real Killer Move

As for the Xie family's obvious favoritism... they are certainly not fools, how could they not see it?

Well, no one really cared about this before, and there were rumors that Xie You’s knowledge was not as good as Xie Yi and Xie Xin, so he failed to enter the Imperial College.

Now it seems like bullshit!

If Xie Yun really wanted to, wouldn't it be easy for him to get Xie You into the Imperial College given his status?

Xie Yun heard the sneers from the crowd and felt completely ashamed!

He couldn't help but blame Xie Yi in his heart for not knowing how to speak, but now he had to bite the bullet and deal with it.

He first glanced at the tall and imposing Tu Yong, who was clearly not to be trifled with. He then turned his gaze towards Xie Xiu, who lay on the couch, and deliberately asked, "It seems you hold a deep grudge against me and your mother. If that's the case, why don't you just tell me in person what you want me to do?"

Xie Yun’s move was truly vicious.

It seemed that he had handed the initiative to Xie Xiu, but Xie Xiu was his son. Out of filial piety, how could he dare to ask him to divorce Chen Fang in front of so many people?

Xie Xiu looked at him deeply, and suddenly started coughing painfully: "Cough cough cough cough——"

He looked extremely painful, his body curled up in a ball from coughing, and he looked even weaker and more pitiful.

When Xie Yun saw that he actually chose to use the self-torture trick, he immediately thought that something was wrong.

"Husband!" Tu Jiaojiao screamed miserably and hurriedly helped Xie Xiu to calm down.

Then she suddenly turned her head, staring at Xie Yun with red eyes: "Father-in-law, do you want to force my husband to death? What did he do wrong to make you hurt him again and again? It's not enough to put a curse on him, now you push him into the water and want to force him to death!"

Everyone present exploded instantly!

"What? A curse?"

No one noticed and someone turned and ran out.

Everyone was shocked and confused.

"real or fake?"

"Are there really poisonous insects in this world?"

"Did they actually put a Gu on Xie Xiu? This is too cruel!"

The constant discussions made Xie Yun and Xie Yi more panicked.

Despite his fear, Xie Yun still said firmly, "This is impossible! There are no poisonous insects in the world. It's just a fabrication in a storybook. How can you take it seriously?"

Tu Yong looked at him mockingly: "Even at this point, you're still protecting this vicious woman! Aren't you afraid at all that she's put a spell on you, too?"

Now Xie Yun was in great confusion and couldn't help but look at Chen Fang suspiciously.

Xie Yi was also in a panic.

He remembered the box that Chen Fang had asked him to pass on to Xie Xiu. Although he guessed that his mother had tampered with the box, he only thought that his mother had secretly poisoned it.

I never thought that there would be a poisonous insect hidden in that box!

Moreover, Xie Xiu and Tu Jiaojiao discovered the poisonous insect inside and deliberately chose this time to shout it out in front of everyone!

Xie Yi couldn't help but look at Chen Fang. Seeing that she looked calm, he suddenly had an idea and calmed down as well.

He really shouldn't panic. It was just Tu Jiaojiao's one-sided statement. Who would believe such an incredible thing?

At this time, he didn't know that Emperor Taihe in the palace was already furious about the poisonous insect!

Chen Fang also didn't know.

Although she didn't know why Tu Jiaojiao knew that there was a poisonous insect hidden in the box, she was not panicked at all at this moment.

Even if there was a Gu worm hidden in the box, who could prove that it was she who put it there? And it wasn't Xie Xiu who deliberately framed her to deal with her?

What's more, who would believe in something as bizarre as a poisonous insect?

So she looked at Tu Jiaojiao fearlessly and asked directly, "You said I used a poisonous insect to harm Xie Xiu, do you have any evidence?"

Everyone looked at Tu Jiaojiao: "Yes, do you have any evidence?" This kind of thing can't be based on just one side of the story.

However, before Tu Jiaojiao could speak, the previously silent Princess suddenly asked in a deep voice, "Madam Tu, are you truly sure that Madam Xie has cast a spell on your husband?"

Chen Fang suddenly felt panicky.

She was not afraid of the accusations made by Xie Xiu and Tu Jiaojiao. After all, the people who happened back then had already been dealt with. No matter how much Xie Xiu and Tu Jiaojiao said, they could not produce any evidence.

But the royal family is most wary of witchcraft. Once the eldest princess becomes suspicious of her, she will be in danger!

Chen Fang immediately said, "Princess, please don't misunderstand me. I, your eldest daughter-in-law, must have heard about the poisonous insects from somewhere and suspected that I had used them to harm Xie Xiu.

"I am truly wronged! I have only heard of these so-called poisonous insects, but have never seen them before. How can they harm them?"

At the end of her speech, she burst into tears again and looked heartbroken.

Tu Jiaojiao immediately said, "The box you asked Xie Yi to give to my husband is now kept in our house and has never been opened! We'll know if there are any Gu worms inside once we open the box!"

Chen Fang's eyes turned cold, and she immediately questioned, "Since you haven't opened the box yet, how do you know there's a Gu worm hidden inside?"

Everyone looked at Tu Jiaojiao suspiciously.

Although they now despise Chen Fang, what she said is not wrong.

Since the box was not opened, how did Xie Xiu and his wife know that there was a poisonous insect hidden inside?

Could it be that they are prophetic? Or that their eyes can see through things?

Tu Jiaojiao was well prepared. She said, "Although we didn't open the box, I had a nightmare the night I received it.

I dreamed that Xie Xiu and I opened a box, and a terrifying insect flew out and ate Xie Xiu's heart in one gulp!

Everyone was speechless: They thought Tu Jiaojiao had some evidence, but it turned out to be because she had a nightmare!

Xie Yun and Xie Yi looked at each other secretly, and they were both happy: since Tu Jiaojiao had no evidence and just had a nightmare, they didn't have to worry.

Thinking of this, the two of them secretly looked at the eldest princess again.

But her face was very cold.

When the two of them saw it, their hearts skipped a beat and they had a very bad feeling!

what happened?

Why did the princess react like this?

It was obvious that Tu Jiaojiao just had a nightmare...

Could it be that she regarded Xie Ying as a lucky star and now wanted to favor Xie Xiu and Tu Jiaojiao?

The two couldn't help but look at Xie Ying, becoming increasingly displeased with her.

This girl was born to be their nemesis!

Just as I was thinking about it, I heard panicked shouts from outside.

"The Black Qilin Guards are here!"

"Commander Lu is here in person!"

"Everyone, get out of the way!"

Everyone quickly dispersed and hid far away.

Xie Yun and He Yue felt a pang in their hearts, and as they watched Lu Xuan striding towards them, the uneasiness in their hearts grew stronger.

Why is Lu Xuan here?

He actually took action personally. Was it because of the eldest princess?

The two couldn't help but look at the princess, only to see Lu Xuan walk straight towards Tu Jiaojiao and ask in a cold voice, "You said there was a Gu worm hidden in the box Madam Xie gave you?"

Xie Yun quickly defended himself, "There wasn't any poisonous insect. She had a nightmare and thought there was one in the box."

Lu Xuan didn't even look at him, and said coldly, "Whether there are any poisonous insects inside, I will find out after I have someone examine it."

He asked Tu Jiaojiao, "Where is the box now?"
