From an old woman back to a young girl, she vowed never to marry into a marquisate

what?

"Boom!" Zhou Ziyue, who was rubbing his forehead with his hands, felt as if his brain exploded. He stopped what he was doing, raised his head woodenly and looked at him, muttering in disbelief: "You, what did you say?"

passed away?

Who, who passed away?

He couldn't believe his ears and subconsciously filtered out the names of those two people.

However, the facts are the facts and there is no avoiding them.

"Witch Master." The subordinate said, "The Emperor of Zhou and the Empress cooperated to fight against the Shanrong. The thirteen tribal leaders of the Shanrong were extremely angry when they heard the news, so they raided Chengmo. Last night, the two leaders of Chengmo were killed, and the entire Chengmo was engulfed in flames. The old marquis and his wife... died."

His detailed explanation once again completely shattered Zhou Ziyue's fantasy that he had heard wrongly.

As his body was weakening, Zhou Ziyue subconsciously tried to hold onto the armrests of the chair, but his hands missed. His body sank and he slid off the chair and sat on the ground.

"Impossible, how is this possible?" He muttered to himself, his eyes turned red instantly, and there was a buzzing sound in his ears like crowing.

He thought of what Madam Du had said to him when he was about to fake his death and leave Chengmo. She said, "Go without worry. Mother will take good care of you here."

"If you succeed, our family will be able to turn things around. If you fail, mother will also be waiting for you to come back."

"Mother." Zhou Ziyue was still worried about his father, so he said, "After I'm gone, I'm afraid you will have to take on some of the responsibility of taking care of my father."

"Don't worry, I know that." Mrs. Du raised her face, which was still well-maintained even here, and said, "Don't worry about these things. Just keep moving forward."

"If you win, we'll turn the tables. If you lose, that's fine." Mrs. Du said, "Mother will cover for you."

Mom! I'll cover you up! Now there's no one to cover him up!

His eyes became redder.

Everything in front of me becomes blurry.

He was incompetent and disappointed his mother.

He felt sorry for her.

"Master." Losing both parents was too painful, and the subordinate felt the same way, so he said, "You must mourn."

Zhou Ziyue sat on the carpet sobbing, his hands clenched tightly, suppressing the pain in his heart.

The subordinate paused. He understood his pain, but the situation was chaotic and Zhou Ziyue could not be defeated. So he asked tentatively, "Witch Master, Chengmo was destroyed by Shanrong. Do we want revenge?"

revenge?

Zhou Ziyue's scattered gaze focused again. He did want revenge, but not now.

Up to now, no one can prevent him from getting Tang Wanru.

anyone!

His words brought Zhou Ziyue back to his senses. He wiped away his tears, sat back in his chair, and asked in a deep voice, "Where is the person?"

The subordinate didn't know who he was asking about for a moment, and Zhou Ziyue said angrily: "Didn't I tell you to go find Wanru? Where is she? I ask you where she is?" He was furious because of the death of his parents, and he couldn't find Tang Wanru, so he stood up and overturned all the tables on one side.

The subordinate was so frightened that he was shaking all over. Fortunately, he had received the news about Tang Wanru before, otherwise he would be dead this time. So he said, "Witch, witch master, we found her. She is not in the palace, but in the palace of the king and prince of Bai Yanli."

Bai Yanli!

It’s Bai Yanli again!

If he hadn't come to the northwest, his parents wouldn't have died!

Kill him!

He wants to settle both new and old accounts with him!

Prince's Palace.

Since the Queen gave the Prince's Mansion to Bai Yanli, he has not yet properly decorated it. Today he brought some people here to decorate the mansion.

Sui Qi came out to meet him.

Bai Yanli walked in while assigning tasks to the people he brought with him.

As soon as I walked out of the front hall, I heard a woman's gentle voice: "Yan Li, you're here?"

Bai Yanli was stunned and turned to look at her in surprise.

She was wearing a delicate pink long dress and a feather hairpin in her hair. Apart from the scar on her face, she looked gentle.

It was Tang Yueer.

"Why are you here?" To Tang Yue'er's surprise, Bai Yanli looked surprised. He looked around and made sure no one was paying attention to her before motioning her to follow him and asking, "How did you get in?"

Tang Yue'er was shocked.

It was he who said last time that he was waiting for her to come find him, and it was he who sent Sui Qi to pick her up. But now, it seems that he has completely denied her.

Tang Yueer felt discouraged and reminded him, "It was you who asked someone to take me away—"

"Keep your voice down!" Bai Yanli interrupted her, "Wanru is here too, don't let her know."

Today he will officially move into the Prince's Mansion, and Tang Wanru will also move in.

Tang Yueer: ...

What does he mean by this? Who does he think she is?

"Go out." Bai Yanli said, "Leave here quickly before anyone finds you."

Tang Yue'er was speechless. What was going on?

Are you kidding her?

"Bai Yanli, you brought me here!" she said, "And you despised me for being ugly, and asked Suiqi to bring me some ointment to apply on my face. I've been applying it for several days, and you can see that the scars on my face have healed. Now you say such things to me again. If you let me go, where can I go?"

She sounded very aggrieved, her eyes were red, and she glanced at Bai Yanli and continued, "Besides, you didn't treat me like this before." What she was comparing to was naturally how Bai Yanli treated her in her memory.

Ah!

Bai Yanli sneered in his heart. She really had the nerve to say such words.

"Then how did you treat me before?" Bai Yanli asked bluntly, "You betrayed me like that before, and now you ask me to trust you. I have to believe you right away, but can it be that fast?"

He was the one who brought the person back.

But you have to give him some time. It's not like you can accept her immediately.

After hearing what he said, Tang Yueer felt a little better.

Bai Yanli continued, "Besides, how do I know whether what you said a few days ago about wanting to rekindle our past relationship was true or false? How can you prove your sincerity?"

"You know you've ruined my whole family. How can it be that easy to go back to the way things were?"

"I——" Tang Yueer wanted to explain.

However, Bai Yanli did not give her a chance. He continued, "Tang Yue'er, I have asked Suiqi to bring you back."

"I have done everything I can for you. If you don't want to leave, you can stay here, but you have to behave yourself. When Wanru is here, you should not come out, so as not to cause trouble for me. If you want to leave, I won't stop you." After saying that, Bai Yanli left.

Tang Yue'er looked at Bai Yanli's back and gritted her teeth silently.
