Chapter 147 Shock

A figure ran up the city wall from below, it was Eunuch Gui.

"Grandpa Gui, you are so impatient, but what big things happened in the palace?" Si Jinxuan was leaning against the crenellations of the city wall, the moonlight poured on her body, gilding her beautiful face. A layer of silver.

When she saw Eunuch Gui's appearance, she couldn't help but feel a little curious and uneasy.

"Your Highness, something happened..."

Eunuch Gui's face was very serious.

Hearing this, Si Jinxuan frowned slightly, and her original leisurely expression instantly faded away, replaced by a sense of calmness and responsibility that a royal family should have.

"What on earth could have caused Grandpa Gui to lose his temper like this?"

she asked, with a hint of unquestionable authority in her tone.

"Your Highness, news has just arrived that the eight great families..."

"What's wrong? What's wrong with the Eight Great Aristocratic Families..." Si Jinxuan quickly stood up and asked after hearing the words "Eight Great Aristocratic Families".

The old servant who had been with her for many years had a solemn face and a steady pace as he approached. His voice was low and slow, but it carried a power that could not be ignored:

"There was news just now from Xiao Duan that the eight great families...were wiped out."

"What……"

Si Jinxuan's pupils shrank suddenly, her voice became trembling with shock, and she could hardly believe her ears.

The eight aristocratic families were the deep-rooted forces in the dynasty. Each aristocratic family had a profound foundation and extraordinary strength. How could they be completely destroyed overnight?

Although they gave the eight great families a heavy blow tonight, they did not hurt their bones at all.

"Your Highness, it's true..." Eunuch Gui nodded and said affirmatively.

"Can we find out who did it?" Si Jinxuan asked with a frown.

"I can't find out. I heard from the warriors in the city that a powerful force fell from the sky and directly blew the children of the aristocratic families into dust, leaving no corpses behind.

Also, the treasures collected by the eight major families were taken away by the mysterious person behind them. "Eunuch Gui said with the same confusion.

Who was responsible? Could it be those old guys hiding in the mountains or in the villages?

"I know!"

At this moment, Xiao Yaoer suddenly raised her hand and interrupted.

The two of them quickly turned around and saw Xiao Yao'er holding a meat skewer in one hand and raising her hand in the other, chewing the meat in her mouth.

"Xiao Yao'er knows! Who is that! Can you tell Aunt Xuan..." Si Jinxuan held Xiao Yao'er in her arms and asked expectantly.

"That's my dad!"

Xiao Yaoer said very casually.

"Brother Lin..." Si Jinxuan was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and then suddenly realized.

Also, other than Brother Lin, who else has the strength to wipe out those eight aristocratic families in one move.

Thinking of this, Si Jinxuan couldn't help but smile.

Si Jinxuan gently stroked Xiao Yao'er's hair, a hint of tenderness flashed in her eyes.

"As expected of Brother Lin, he wiped out eight aristocratic families with just a raise of his hand..." She murmured to herself.

Eunuch Gui also echoed from the side: "Yes, it seems that His Highness's original choice was correct. With Lin Gao here, our royal family has the most solid backing."

Si Jinxuan nodded slightly, thinking of Lin Qingzhi's appearance, the smile on her face became even brighter.

"However, we still need to inform the emperor about this matter as soon as possible." Si Jinxuan said, "At the same time, we must also strengthen the security of the imperial city to prevent other forces from taking the opportunity to cause trouble."

Upon hearing this, Eunuch Gui quickly bowed respectfully and said he would make arrangements immediately.

Si Jinxuan hugged Xiao Yao'er, turned around and sat down on the dining table next to her again.

"The imperial capital is ahead, Xiao Yao'er, do you want to go and play in the palace with Aunt Xuan!" Si Jinxuan looked at Xiao Yao'er, pinched her cheek and said.

"Is there any delicious food in the palace?"

After hearing Si Jinxuan's words, Xiao Yao'er asked expectantly.

"Yes! You can eat whatever you want when you get to the palace, and Aunt Xuan can have it brought to you." Si Jinxuan said with a smile.

After all this time, Xiao Yaoer is still the snack foodie!

"Yeah! Yeah..."

Xiao Yaoer immediately cheered when she heard that there was something delicious.

"Then let's go! Aunt Xuan's car is not far away," Si Jinxuan walked towards the bottom of the castle with Xiao Yao'er in her arms.

After leaving the castle with Lin Ruo and others, Xiao Yaoer also put the castle back into the small satchel in front of her. Behind them, Poison Wolf and others had bandaged their wounds and walked outside together.

Not to mention Xiao Yaoer going to the imperial capital with Si Jinxuan.

The eight great aristocratic families of the Xia Kingdom, those famous and powerful families that were once at the height of their power, were annihilated overnight. Like the sudden fall of a bright star, a huge wave was set off in the Xia Kingdom, shocking everyone in the Xia Kingdom. mind.

The news spread like wildfire across the prairie fire, quickly spreading to every corner of the Xia Kingdom. From the prosperous Kyoto to the remote border towns, every state, every city, and even the most inconspicuous village were involved in the investigation of this shocking incident. In the midst of heated discussions on major cases.

People were either shocked, frightened, or curious, and they were talking a lot, as if the whole world had fallen into some subtle imbalance due to this sudden change.

Those small families that were once tightly attached to the eight major families are now like frightened birds, and their people are in panic. The arrogance of the past has been replaced by fear.

They used to rely on the protection of the family to run rampant in the countryside, oppress the people, and even look down on the royal family, thinking that they had found an eternal umbrella of protection.

However, the demise of the eight great families was like a loud alarm bell, awakening their dreams and making them realize that in this world, there are no eternal winners, only constantly changing situations and unpredictable fates.

Everyone in the small family began to worry, worried that they would be the next target of liquidation.

As night fell, the candlelight flickered, and the elders of the family sat together, whispering and talking, trying to find a ray of hope in this chaos.

They speculated on the identity of the mastermind behind the scenes and his motives, but no one could see a glimpse of it. They only felt that an invisible shadow was quietly approaching, suffocating.

Even if the person behind the scenes would not cause trouble for them, the royal family would find them to settle accounts. Over the years, they opposed the royal family and suppressed the power of the royal family many times with the eight great families.

In addition to those small families, there are also the people and warriors of the eight great families.

They are extremely excited and happy about the demise of the eight great families.

The eight great families were destroyed, and the people began to fantasize that in the future, their lives will no longer be oppressed by the families, their descendants will have the opportunity to be promoted and survive, and the warriors will be able to show their skills in a fair arena instead of being used as tools for private fights between the families.
