1132 Remnants of the Hai Family
Hai Lan did not know what Gu Jinyuan and Hai Feng were thinking, nor did she know that she was courting death. She only knew that Hai Feng and Gu Jinyuan were her only way out, so no matter what, she had to see Hai Feng or Gu Jinyuan today and seek a way out from them.
“Young Master Hai Feng has nothing to do with the Hai family and is not your brother. Therefore, if anyone still dares to cause trouble outside the Purple Cloud Tower, they will be punished according to the rules of the Purple Cloud Tower. They will die.”
When Hai Lan heard this, her head rumbled. She felt that the sky was about to collapse because now she could not grab onto her only straw to clutch at, which made her especially anxious.
However, just as she was anxious and at a loss, the soldiers of the Imperial Court suddenly appeared and captured her.
“What are you doing? Let go of me, let go of me. Hai Feng of the Purple Cloud Tower is my brother and Gu Jinyuan is my fiancé. You can’t treat me like this.”
No matter how Hai Lan struggled and shouted, the soldiers refused to let go of her.
The leader of the generals stepped forward and said, “On the orders of the Emperor, we are to capture the remaining members of the Hai family and escort them to the execution grounds immediately. They will be beheaded in public.”
“No… This is impossible… Impossible!” Hai Lan could not accept this fact. The more she struggled, the more useless it was. Seeing that she was about to be taken away by the soldiers, she could only place her last hope on the two people in the Purple Cloud Tower. “Brother, save me, save me. Gu Jinyuan, save me, quickly save me.”
“Stop shouting. The Purple Cloud Tower has already announced to the public that Young Master Hai Feng has nothing to do with the Hai family, nor is he your elder brother. As for Gu Jinyuan, your marriage has long been annulled, and you were the one who annulled it, so don’t come and cause trouble for the Purple Cloud Tower anymore, or you’ll die even more miserably.”
“No, Hai Feng is my brother. He won’t ignore me.”
“What brother? Everyone in the Imperial City knows how much the Hai family didn’t treat Young Master Hai Feng as a human. Even you took pleasure in bullying Young Master Hai Feng. How dare you say that he’s your brother here? You only acknowledged him when you were in trouble. Miss Hai Lan, the execution ground and executioner are already prepared. Let’s go.”
“No… No, let go of me, let go of me…” Hai Lan screamed. When she was dragged further and further away from the Purple Cloud Tower, she fell into complete despair. She no longer had any hope for Hai Feng and Gu Jinyuan. The anger and hatred in her heart became stronger and stronger. At this moment, there was only one thought in her heart. Even if she died, she had to drag someone down with her. “Hai Feng is also a remnant of the Hai family. Why didn’t you capture him?”
“Young Master Hai Feng is a subordinate of the Ninth Lord and a financial envoy of the Nine Cloud Palace. He is no longer a member of the Hai family. Don’t you know that?”
“What did you say? The financial envoy of the Nine Cloud Palace?”
Only then did Hai Lan realize the seriousness of the matter.
She knew that Hai Feng was the Ninth Lord’s subordinate, but she did not know that he was actually the financial envoy of the Nine Cloud Palace.
She had heard of the financial envoy of the Nine Cloud Palace. It was said that he was an extremely powerful person who was very good at making money. In just a few years, he had already earned a huge fortune for the Nine Cloud Palace.
Over the past few years, the Hai family’s wealth had quickly decreased by at least half.
Could it be that the Hai family’s wealth had been taken by Hai Feng to Nine Cloud Palace?
“Hai Feng, I’m going to kill you…” Hai Lan screamed angrily. She wanted to rush back and die together with Hai Feng, but she could not break free. At this moment, she was being escorted to the execution ground and would be beheaded soon.
She was really unwilling!
