Triplets: Lucky Mommy is a Beautiful Badass

How could Si Jin be that powerful? Those city folk must have deliberately framed the child for the death of the grand master. She had met the child before, he was clean looking and his face was that of a pure and innocent young boy. He did not look like a grand master at all.

How preposterous.

"Oh." It seemed that her imagination was not rich enough. Li Ruoxuan did not care. He continued, "It was said that the Head Grand Secretariat recently resigned while I'm the current State Preceptor. I'm the only person that her Majesty can use now. As such, Si Jin can't kill me. Qi Qingyao still won't be able to kill me even if I kill your family."

"Who was the Head Grand Secretariat?" She did not even know of such a person! If the person in front of her was the real deal, if he was the real State Preceptor, and were to kill her entire family, Yaoyao would not be able to avenge them either…

Li Ruoxuan continued, "If you kill the current State Preceptor... Qi Qingyao will be hunted and killed by the entire Northern Liang imperial court. She can't afford that. In other words, if you kill the State Preceptor, everyone in the world will be allowed to kill you once it's been confirmed that you committed the crime! So, considering the trade-off, she won't be able to do anything despite knowing that I am the culprit behind the killing of Qi Qingzhu's family. Tut tut."

"You monster!" The man was being deliberate! Madam Wu finally realized that this person was threatening her! She was so furious that she cursed in a pained voice.

"How presumptuous!" Li Ruoxuan closed his eyes and his voice was very cold. The murderous intent around him dispersed like vapor. The murderous intent made Madam Wu tense up. On the spot, she began feeling a chill on her back that reached all the way to the tips of her hair. Li Ruoxuan approached her, and there was an inviolable cold killing intention on his eyebrows as he said, "Madam Wu... I killed Qi Qingzhu's entire family because they failed to report and deserved it! If this matter was brought into court, my actions would still be justified."

"..." Madam Wu did not know if she was feeling frightened or angry, but her teeth began trembling.

"You have two options now." It was hard to distinguish the emotions in Li Ruoxuan's tone, but a spine-tingling glint cut across his eyes as he said, "You can tell me the truth and I'll let you off and you can return. Or I'll use capital punishment. Ordinary people like you can't stand the pain and will confess eventually. I'll only kill you after you confess."

"..." What the hell was this man talking about? Either get killed immediately or kill her after she confessed…

"Or, there may also be a third option." Li Ruoxuan thought of an alternative. He shrugged his shoulders, then stepped back and said with a smile, "I could kill you straight away and then catch the Qi old man. I will cut off your head and hang it in front of him and see if he would deny me…what do you think?"

Did that not mean that it would not only be her who died, but the old man as well? When Madam Wu thought of this, she felt herself shudder. She was so angry that she cursed without regard to her life or death, "Y-y-you, you are truly a monster."

Li Ruoxuan looked at the fluster and panic in the woman's eyes and knew he had achieved his goal. The corners of his lips curled upward as he said, "30 minutes is up, if you're not going to confess…"

Madam Wu closed the whitening corners of her mouth and clenched her teeth. She did not want to say anything, but she was unable to keep calm when faced with absolute power. There was only one thing she could say.

"I'll talk, I'll talk."

Li Ruoxuan was very satisfied with her decision. He reminded her profoundly, "If you dare tell a single lie, I'll slice off your grandchildren's head and use it as a stool!"

Voice hoarse, Madam Wu said, "It has already come to this, I will not lie to you, but please let me and my family go after I tell you the truth."
