The Marquise: I Earn My Own Worship

"what why?"

The two looked at each other.

"I'm just curious, tell me about it."

"Okay, beg me."

When Song Shengfu heard this, she quickly spoke.

"Please."

Although she is already in her seventies, she has always been a soft-hearted person and can finish the three words in just one second.

Moreover, as an elder, she only flaunts her prestige in front of the younger generations. In front of her peers, she does not show such prestige.

What did you say, what face?

Sorry, she doesn't.

"I'm bored anyway, so let's just chat for a while. We both have one foot in the ground, and if we don't talk for a while, there will be nothing left to talk about."

This sounds like the truth.

Tai Shuzhen nodded in agreement, and when he looked at Song Shengfu with his chin slightly raised, there was some contempt in his eyes.

"Living under those people for so many years has really worn away your backbone."

Song Shengfu remained noncommittal. She wasn't the real original, so she certainly didn't have the integrity of those noble ladies.

Tai Shuzhen looked down at his hands, which were stained with the blood of countless people.

"They brought this upon themselves. I merely added fuel to the fire. Whether it's the strife among the princes or the corruption within the officialdom, if they themselves didn't have those intentions, how could my people have bewitched them?"

"Brothers killed each other, framed loyal officials, and embezzled military funds. Each and every one of these was caused by their own greed. Unfortunately, fate was not on my side."

After saying that, she looked at Song Shengfu deeply.

All of this is related to the old woman in front of him who looks like a fool.

This Song Shengfu was stupid when she was young, and she still looks stupid when she is old.

But it was such a fool who raised a grandson who ruined her plans.

She lowered her eyes to look at the sweet, sleeping child.

"Our two families have been related by marriage, and I don't want to be too extreme. But Duan Chengkang is ignorant of his own limitations, so I'm here to teach him a lesson. There's no such thing as having the best of both worlds. You can't have your cake and eat it too."

At this time, several men in black appeared.

"Master, the fuse has been set."

Song Shengfu is not afraid of death, but Yu Ge'er is still young and has a long life to experience.

"The child is innocent, can you please let him go?"

"Is the child innocent?"

"Ah!"

Tai Shuzhen smiled coldly, with a deep sadness in his eyes.

"Who will pity my Taishu clan's child?"

Sadness turned into hatred, and Tai Shuzhen's face had an abnormal flush.

Watching the fire gradually rising outside the house and feeling the increasingly hot temperature, Song Shengfu hugged Yu Ge'er and hid in the innermost corner.

"My Taishu clan believes in following the will of heaven and benefiting the people. This fire is my intention to kill you. But whether you can come out alive is also the only chance I leave for you."

Thinking of what Tai Shuzhen said when he lit the torch outside the door, Song Shengfu wanted to drown her with a mouthful of spit.

That's nice to say.

You should leave a window.

All the doors and windows were nailed shut, as if they were teasing her like a fool.

Song Shengfu placed Yu Ge'er in the innermost corner and began to look for a way out.

Unfortunately, there was nothing in the room except the two chairs they had just sat on.

Looking around, this seems to be a study.

Song Shengfu had an idea. Since it was a study, there might be some secret passage or secret room.

However, as soon as the thought came to her mind, she quickly rejected it.

The thick smoke came in, and she couldn't open her eyes and couldn't stop coughing.

She covered her mouth and nose with a cloth, and sat down in the seat where Tai Shuzhen had just sat.

This place is against the wall and is the innermost part of the room.

When she arrived here just now, the group of men in black were looking for something.

Now that I think about it, they probably wanted to burn her to death, so they looked there to see if there was any secret passage or something, for fear that she would run away.

"Cough cough cough."

Song Shengfu burst into tears, all because of being choked.

She took a breath and cursed in her heart that Tai Shuzhen was really a pervert.

He sat there in a black robe, as if in a trance, not moving at all.

At first she thought the other person was disabled and just sat there, so she didn't dare to look at her legs.

Unexpectedly, I almost scared him when I stood up later...

Ok?

Something is wrong.

Song Shengfu moved her butt. The group of men in black looked everywhere, but they didn't look at where Tai Shuzhen was sitting.

Song Shengfu jumped up in shock, turned around and started groping around.

Although I don't know where this place is, this heavily crafted armchair looks unusual.

Until the thick smoke completely covered the house and the fire soared into the sky.

Tai Shuzhen took it all in until a wooden beam collapsed. She closed her eyes and ordered, "Let's go."

If you don't leave now, you'll find this place.

Her body only had two days to recover, but she still had one last thing to do.

By the time the Chu Emperor's men arrived, this place had already been burned to ashes.

Fang Youlang dismounted in a hurry and almost fainted when he saw the scene before him.

"I'm afraid I'm too late."

General Zhao, who was in the lead, said.

"No, no, Grandma, Brother Yu."

Fang Youming was on the verge of collapse, his legs went weak and he knelt on the ground.

"Alive or dead, I want to see the body. Search everyone."

When Kang Ge'er brought Yu Gu back, he saw his wife kneeling in the wreckage, looking for something.

His throat tightened, and he placed Yu Gu with General Zhao and walked towards that side step by step.

Just now when he was returning, he met the people he had arranged to be with his wife.

The news came that my grandmother and Yu Ge'er were abducted by Princess Yuan Chengqin, and their lives or deaths were unknown.

At this moment, he remembered what the young eunuch he had killed had said.

"General, why don't you go home now and pretend you know nothing? At least your family will be safe."

Kang Ge'er wanted to slap himself twice at that time.

No wonder.

He had also seen the invitation when Princess Anru sent it out.

At that time, I thought the Princess of Anru County was extremely strange. Since that incident, the Anru County government has always kept a low profile and has avoided many occasions if possible, for fear of attracting the attention of His Majesty.

This time, when they arrived at the palace, they held a grand banquet.

Guessing that there might be an accident, Youlang arranged some personnel just in case.

However, he never expected that the other party would target the grandmother and children left at home.

In the past, relying on his good luck, he was always careless in his actions, and he always got away with it by luck without taking it to heart.

But this time, he was taught a severe lesson with blood.
