Marry another wife, the mistress of the marquisate will not serve you anymore

The faint light shines through the mottled leaves onto the ground of the ruined temple, creating light and shadows of varying sizes.

The walls of the dilapidated temple were covered with traces of time and filled with a foul smell. The incense burner on the altar was full of dust.

Spider webs can be seen everywhere in the corners, and everything is dilapidated, desolate and lonely.

Seven or eight men in black respectfully bowed to the beautiful figure sitting on the chair:

"I followed the young lady's orders and have captured the mistress of the Marquis's family. I have knocked her unconscious and will let the young lady deal with her as she pleases."

The figure was wearing a purple dress and a veiled hat, so her true appearance could not be seen. She sneered in a shrill voice:

"Song Wanyin, you've caused me so much pain and made me fall so hard that I can't even keep my dignity.

I originally wanted to live in peace with you, but you just insisted on suppressing me in every way and making it impossible for me to stand up.

Since you have no moral principles, I don’t have to be polite to you.”

As he said that, he slowly stood up and walked to the sack. He kicked the sack with disgust on his face, confirmed that the person inside was still asleep, and then continued:

“I didn’t stab you to death at the temple gate last time, so you luckily escaped.

Later he went to your garden to assassinate you, but you escaped again.

In these successive assassination attempts, there were obvious opportunities to kill you, but you were able to escape death time and again. You are quite capable.

But this time, I guess you can't escape even if you have wings.

Don't worry, I won't kill you for the time being. I will torture you slowly and make you live a life worse than death.

Don't even dream that Gu Qingchen will come to find you, because you are not that important in his heart.

Everyone in the Gu family is hoping that you will die soon, so that your dowry will naturally belong to the Gu family."

One of the men made a knife-shaped hand gesture and said with a sly look:

"Girl, why don't you cripple her first? In order to prevent her from escaping again."

As soon as this was said, the other men echoed it.

"Yes, it would be better to cut the tendons of her hands and feet and turn her into a complete cripple. Then we can see how she can still dominate the girl."

"Even if we cripple her, she will still be able to recognize us. Why not just blind her and see how she can run away in the future?"

"Everyone in the capital city praises her beauty. Why not just cut her face into a chessboard and see how she can use her beauty to kill people in the future?"

"No, no, she is the mistress of a marquisate after all. If she is tortured to the point where she looks like neither a human nor a ghost, someone will definitely investigate the matter."

"Who would care about her? The Marquis disliked her the most and wished she would die sooner. We have solved this big problem for the Marquis instead."

"It's okay to cripple her. She can't do anything evil anyway. At worst, we can make it look like she was injured accidentally. No one will be able to find evidence to trace it back to us."

Little did they know that this scene was seen by Song Wanyin and Xiao Jingheng who were hiding in the dark.

After hearing the voice of the woman in purple, Song Wanyin quickly guessed her true identity.

Based on the evidence found in the previous assassination attempts, all of them had the word "Jiang" engraved on them, which further confirmed that this person was Jiang Lanyue, and he would be recognizable even if he turned into ashes.

It turned out that ever since the assassination in the temple, Jiang Lanyue had been determined to kill himself.

The sound of Jiang Lanyue speaking in a deliberately shrill voice made her dazed for a moment, and she always felt that the voice was familiar.

A dazzling flame appeared in her pupils, as if she had returned to the sea of ​​fire in her previous life. She heard a cold female voice outside the door.

Suddenly, the two voices overlapped and matched each other perfectly.

Song Wanyin shuddered, her pupils suddenly contracted, her body swayed, and she staggered back a few steps.

It was her, it was indeed her. It turned out that she was the murderer who set fire to herself in her previous life.

"Little junior sister, what's wrong with you?"

Xiao Jingheng hurried forward to support her, and seeing that she was pale and sweat was oozing from her forehead, he said worriedly:

"Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"

Song Wanyin shook her head slightly and said:

“Brother, I’m fine, I’ll just go back to the carriage and rest for a while.

Cui Er is in your hands now. Please don't let her get hurt."

Xiao Jingheng's brows were filled with worry as he watched her leave with the support of Tiancheng. He turned to look at Jiang Lanyue in the dilapidated temple, with a sharp, cold light flashing in his eyes.

At this moment, he couldn't help but come up with an idea. This kind of vicious and cruel woman will always be punished by her own evil.

At the same time, Jiang Lanyue mocked the man in the sack for a long time, and then, seeing that it was getting late, he told his servants before leaving:

"You know what to do, don't reveal any flaws."

Seven or eight men immediately nodded in agreement, respectfully escorted her to the entrance of the dilapidated temple, and watched her get on the carriage and leave.

After Jiang Lanyue left, they all showed obscene smiles, looked at each other and smiled, releasing the evil side of their hearts.

"It would be a shame if such a beautiful girl was wasted. It would be better to let the brothers have some fun first."

"Yes, this is the wife of a noble family. She is always very arrogant. Let us show her how powerful a man is."

"I heard that this lady of the Marquis's house is still a virgin. We have picked up a great bargain."

"She's going to die anyway, so why not let us satisfy her craving first? She'll have died a worthy death."

"Even if the sky falls, we still have the Earl's Mansion to hold it up. Why are you still standing there? Take turns!"

"Hurry, hurry, I can't wait any longer. Untie the sack quickly, or she will suffocate to death."

"Yeah, it wouldn't be fun if she died. It would be best to wake her up and let her scream out. That would be so exciting!"

Seven or eight men immediately rushed forward and hurriedly untied the sack.

Xiao Jingheng heard it all clearly outside the window, his knuckles cracking so hard that he wished he could tear them into pieces.

With just a glance, Jing Mo and Huai Xi immediately understood what he meant, slowly drew out their swords, and prepared for the hunting action.

Xiao Jingheng turned around and strode away. Before he had taken a few steps, he heard screams coming from the ruined temple and the sound of swords rubbing against each other.

He was concerned about Song Wanyin, so he came to the carriage and called out softly:

"Little junior sister, are you okay?"

Song Wanyin whispered through the curtain:

"Brother, thank you for your help.

Cui'er, please send someone to send her home safely.

I will go back home first, and then we will proceed according to our plan."

Xiao Jingheng looked reluctant, nodded and said:

"Well, you go back first, and I will take care of the rest."

The carriage moved slowly, and Song Wanyin finally calmed down and fell into deep thought.

Now that the mastermind behind the scenes has been uncovered, he plans to kill two birds with one stone, first by withdrawing from the Gu family and then killing someone with a borrowed knife.

It was just right that he ended up clean and avoided being splattered with blood.

However, she still had a worry as it had been so long since she last went to the palace to meet the emperor and ask for permission for a divorce.

There was no news from the palace and I was very worried that the situation might have changed.

However, Your Majesty is a serious person and there shouldn't be any complications.

But things are unpredictable, so we still need to make adequate preparations in case of emergency.
