The people in this organization will get things done once they’ve been paid. However, most people don’t know about this organization, and they don’t easily take orders. Only heaven knows they charge ten thousand taels of silver as a deposit for each job, and once the task is completed, you have to pay thirty thousand taels.
The Second Madam of the Mu Family left happily, unaware that as soon as she left the courtyard, soone followed her in and later reported her whereabouts to Mu Shaoling.
Mu Shaoling knew this woman would not be content. She was like the Luo Family’s first branch, scheming to seize everything from the other branches.
So when they left the mansion, Mu Shaoling had soone watch over the group from the second branch.
"Young Master, the Second Madam spent forty thousand taels of silver to buy the lives of you and the young master."
"Forty thousand taels?" Mu Shaoling sneered, "Quite wealthy. Truly a bunch of fools, using the money they took from the Mu Family to harm its descendants. They’re courting death."
"What should we do now, Young Master?" the secret guard asked.
"I’ll pay three tis the price for the lives of her two sons," Mu Shaoling chuckled, "I’m more rciful than she is. She wanted us, the first branch, to have no offspring, but at least I didn’t take her grandson’s life."
"Yes, Young Master!"
Upon hearing this, the secret guard hurried to the courtyard south of the city.
Thus, a counter-assassination deal was completed.
Five days later, the Second Madam’s eldest son was kicked to death by a startled horse as he was leaving the mansion. The horse and its owner disappeared without a trace.
That sa night, her younger son was stabbed three tis at ho, one stab straight to the heart, causing his death.
The floor was covered with blood, driving the Second Madam crazy on the spot. She kept cursing, insisting Mu Shaoling hard her two sons, yet couldn’t explain why.
The Second Old Master was overwheld with grief, yet still suppressed his emotions to prepare the funeral arrangents for his two sons.
Losing two sons in one day, and they were legitimate heirs, plus the separation from the first branch, added insult to injury.
But what he couldn’t accept was on the night before the burial, the Second Madam, driven by so unknown stimulus, burned her two sons to ashes with fire.
The Second Old Master vomited blood on the spot and fainted.
When he woke up, soone ca to tell him the Second Madam had gone insane, turned into a lunatic.
The Second Old Master didn’t believe it, but when he went to see her, he found the Second Madam drooling, smiling foolishly.
She didn’t just smile foolishly; she would take off her clothes, as if they were needles piercing her body. No sooner had she dressed than she would remove them within an hour.
The Second Old Master, being a ruthless man and also prideful, couldn’t bear to see his wife undress in front of people, anyti and anywhere.
So he decisively took out a few black pills from the dicine chest, dissolved them into a bowl of water, and forced them down the Second Madam’s throat.
In less than an hour, the Second Madam’s eyes suddenly shut and she stopped breathing.
Fearful of people continually gossiping about their second branch, the Second Madam’s death was without funeral rites. Wrapped in a tattered mat, she was buried imdiately.
And she wasn’t buried with her two sons. The Second Old Master despised how she lost her chastity, took off her clothes, in insanity, unwilling to let such a person contaminate the Mu Family’s good fortune. In the end, it was unknown where she was buried.
