Chapter 793: Chapter 793 A Big Surprise Chapter 793: Chapter 793 A Big Surprise Zi Xia was startled when she heard the news, and instead of slowing down, she sped up and burst through the door, asking anxiously, “Miss, Miss, are you alright?”

Lying on the bed, Xuexue, felt terrified and quickly cautioned her, “Zi Xia, be careful, under your feet, under your feet, look underneath quickly.”

Luckily, having mastered martial arts, Zi Xia hopped left and right to avoid piles of scorpions and centipedes on the floor.

Zi Xia suddenly leaped onto Xuexue’s bed and asked incredulously, “Miss, what’s going on here? Why are there so many scorpions and centipedes?”

Xuexue was also baffled, thinking that this scene had not occurred in her past life, but she knew for certain that it was related to Lady Tang and her daughter.

“I don’t know, it was like this when I got up, luckily the lights were on, otherwise, I would have been bitten.”

Feeling a chill, Xuexue knew these creatures were poisonous; one bite would undoubtedly be fatal. She looked around and was even more horrified to see the canopy over her bed swarming with scorpions and centipedes. Fortunately, she had the habit of drawing the canopy at night and tucking in the gaps, preventing the venomous insects from climbing onto the bed and biting her.

“Miss, how did so many poisonous insects appear in the General’s Mansion?”

“Let alone the General’s Mansion, even a common household wouldn’t encounter so many scorpions and centipedes overnight.”

“Miss means…?”

“It’s human-caused.”

“Auntie Tang?”

“In the vast General’s Mansion, besides her wanting your demise, who else would it be!” Xuexue scoffed repeatedly, thinking how audacious Lady Tang was, not even waiting for her to act and assuming she was too weak to retaliate.

“Miss, should I go and inform the General to seek justice?”

Xuexue shook her head: “It’s no use, last time when she poisoned me, despite having both witnesses and evidence, father did not punish her. I understand that as an Imperial Appointed Official, father has many restrictions and also fears Prince Pu’s Mansion. To avoid making things difficult for father, let’s not tell him; I will handle this myself.”

Zi Xia: “Miss, the General is also helpless, don’t blame him.”

“Mhm, I know.”

“Then…?”

“Oh my! My dear Zi Xia, stop talking and hurry, find something to catch these poisonous insects; if we delay any longer, they will eat us.” Watching the scorpions and centipedes trying to climb up from under the bed, Xuexue kept hitting them with a pillow to prevent them from getting on the bed.

“Alright!”

Zi Xia then reacted, leapt out, and quickly returned with a tight mesh bag and iron tongs, catching all the centipedes and scorpions in the room, filling half a mesh bag.

“Phew! Oh! Finally caught them all.” Zi Xia straightened up, shaking the bag in her hand, and asked, “Miss, how should we handle these poisonous creatures?”

“Tie up the bag and set it aside, I’ll need it.”

“Just keep it in the room?”

“Mhm.” Xuexue nodded.

“Isn’t that too dangerous? What if they escape and bite you, Miss! Maybe I should dispose of them to prevent further trouble?”

Xuexue smiled and shook her head mysteriously, “Keep the venomous creatures, I need them.”

“For what purpose?”

“To repay them with their own coin.”

Upon hearing this, Zi Xia’s eyes lit up and she repeatedly exclaimed, “Right! How did I not think of that!”

“Miss, when will you act?”

Xuexue looked up at the dawning sky outside, it was still very early, Lady Tang was probably still asleep!
