In ancient times, she gave birth to seven daughters and was divorced by her husband's family.

Bai Liezhao frowned slightly and looked at Xu Wanrong hesitantly.

At this time, Xiao Qiyue next to her covered her mouth, as if she had done something wrong, and hurriedly whispered to Bai Liezhao: "How about... I cover her mouth again, I feel like I'm going to be scolded by my mother later. This person must be talking nonsense."

Xiao Qiyue put her hands on her waist and said angrily.

"If she is your fiancée, why did she go to Qingzhou instead of staying in Kyoto to get married? You may return to Kyoto in a while, and Kyoto...didn't send a letter to Qingzhou saying that you, my second uncle, have been engaged."

Hearing this, Xu Wanrong said quickly: "Little Princess, you know... I was supposed to stay in Kyoto to get married, but something unexpected happened there. After Bai Chuyao, the eldest son of the Bai family, refused to marry the second son, Xu family agreed... But the Xu family wanted to marry me to a 60-year-old prince. I didn't want to marry, so I ran away."

"Second Master." She said with tears in her eyes, "Now that my reputation is ruined, I have no choice but to marry you..."

"If I don't marry you, I will have no choice but to marry the old prince, wuwuwu."

She completely ignored the fact that she almost hanged herself in the Bai family. She only told Bai Liezhao that if she didn't marry him now, she would have a bad reputation and no way back. She would probably become a widow in a few years.

Bai Liezhao was shocked when he heard what Xu Wanrong said: "What? The Xu family is so shameless! Aren't you a family of upright officials and censors for generations?!"

"As a result, the family of censors, who criticize His Majesty and the ministers on behalf of the people of the world...are so shameless as to use their own daughter to cling to power?!"

Bai Liezhao sneered, now he understood what she meant.

"If...you don't marry me, you have to marry a rich and powerful man?!"

"It seems... your Xu family doesn't care about your life at all. This is really too much!"

"Miss Xu, you are so pitiful."

Xu Wanrong nodded fiercely and said to Bai Liezhao: "Second Master, yes, yes..."

"But don't just say I'm pitiful, let me go!"

Bai Liezhao shook his head and said to Xu Wanrong hesitantly, "How can this be possible? Let's tie you up. If I let you go, my sister will definitely be worried."

Although Bai Liezhao didn't quite understand the twists and turns of these women's harems, he knew that if Bai Lu tied Xu Wanrong up, it meant that there must be something wrong with Xu Wanrong, and it must be more than what she said. So Bai Liezhao just complained about how bad Xu Wanrong's family was.

Xu Wanrong was silent.

No, how could Bai Liezhao not be fooled?

She quickly said to Bai Liezhao: "Second Master, I..."

She said to Bai Liezhao anxiously, "Did you understand the point of my words? You have to marry me!"

Bai Liezhao immediately shook his head: "Oh, isn't this too absolute? Why don't you marry the old prince but me? How is this possible!"

Bai Liezhao glanced at Xu Wanrong and said to her, "Now that you can run to Qingzhou, you can run to other places."

"I'll run away from marriage just the same."

"When the time comes, you can ask our Bai family to protect you and prevent you from marrying the old prince, or help you run away secretly, isn't that enough?"

"Why do you have to marry me? You don't like me."

"...To you, the old prince is a scourge because he is old and may have some quirks. But to you, am I good enough?!"

"You haven't seen me, you don't like me, and I don't like you. I really don't understand why you want to marry me so much..."

Xu Wanrong was dumbfounded: "Ah?!"

Why was Bai Liezhao's reaction completely different from what he had imagined?

After Bai Liezhao finished speaking, he said to Xu Wanrong seriously, "Miss Xu, our Bai family will investigate this matter. If we find out that it is exactly as you said, I will help you then."

"But I have to find out why my eldest brother Bai Chuyao refused the marriage proposal and didn't help you after he found out that your current situation was so embarrassing."

"Also, why did my sister tie you up?"

Having said that, he immediately turned and left.

Xu Wanrong stared at his back, completely dumbfounded: "Wait, Second Young Master! Second Young Master!"

Before she could finish her words, July blocked her mouth.

Xu Wanrong wanted to make a sound, but couldn't. She saw little Qiyue smiling at Xu Wanrong, but her face was a little cold, completely different from the innocent and cute one before.

"Ms. Xu Wanrong, now that you have said what you wanted to say, please... stop causing trouble."

"If you do something to disturb our second uncle, don't blame me for being rude."

"I can take the cloth off your mouth, or I can completely cover your mouth with the cloth. Then... you won't be able to speak anymore."

"???"

"!!!"

Hearing this, Xu Wanrong suddenly opened her eyes wide!

She suddenly realized that the reason why Qiyue took down the cloth just now was not because she thought it was fun, but because she took it down on purpose. Why, why did she do this? !

Xu Wanrong's face showed great panic, and she stayed there obediently, not daring to make any sound.

Not long after, she saw two heroic-looking women coming over and taking the crying Xu Wanrong away.

They took Xu Wanrong to a separate small room, untied her and let her eat and sleep there.

Xu Wanrong looked at the two heroic girls, a little confused, and blinked. They actually untied her. They really underestimated her. What if she escaped? !

Mu Guiying and Qin Liangyu ignored her completely. They both had to go out with Bai Lu to do some work tomorrow.

Mu Guiying stretched lazily, glanced at Xu Wanrong beside her, then suddenly grabbed the teacup in her hand and broke it into pieces.

Xu Wanrong was so frightened that her face turned pale. Then Mu Guiying smiled and said to her, "Miss, are you scared? Haha."

"No, no." Xu Wanrong quickly shook her head and hugged herself in fear, fearing that the girl would crush her to pieces.

Then I heard Qin Liangyu next to me laughing so hard that she said to Xu Wanrong, "She is simply a rude woman, not as gentle as me."

As she said that, she immediately gave a light kick, and the bed board broke into two pieces.

Seeing her movements, Xu Wanrong was particularly horrified. Then she heard Qin Liangyu say with a smile: "Only a woman like me can be called a gentle woman."

"Okay, you are gentle." Xu Wanrong went outside crying, and immediately lay down on the bed and fell asleep obediently.
