After being exiled with her husband and children, she returned with great power to rule the world

Tang Muyang's heart was like the sea ravaged by a storm. He knew very well that once he was regarded as a fugitive, he would fall into an endless abyss of darkness and would never see the light of day again.

Huo Shuixian's frail and boneless appearance kept appearing before his eyes. Her eyes sometimes revealed confusion and helplessness, and her mental state was like a candle swaying in the wind and rain, sometimes bright and sometimes dim.

Tang Muyang was full of worries. In this turbulent world, if Huo Shuixian continued to be in such a situation, the only bloodline left in the world by the general and his wife would probably eventually disappear.

However, Murong Ling'er was like a cold statue, unmoved. She shook her head slightly and resolutely rejected Tang Muyang's pleading.

She frowned slightly, her voice cold, "Regardless of whether she is truly a daughter of the Huo family, she must not leave the Huo family's control at this moment. If she disappears, the court will conduct a thorough investigation, and the entire Huo family will be dragged into the vortex of this disaster, and no one will be spared."

Murong Ling'er's heart was filled with doubts, and the truth seemed to be shrouded in thick fog. How could she let Huo Shuixian go or stay before finding out the truth? The Tang family might not be a safe haven for Huo Shuixian, but might be the fuse that drags the Huo family into the abyss.

"Ms. Murong, are you really going to be so cruel as to watch Miss Huo walk towards her death?" Tang Muyang's voice trembled slightly with anger, his eyes wide open, full of disbelief.

He originally thought that Murong Ling'er still had the sisterly friendship of the past in her heart, and would quietly keep Huo Shuixian and give her a glimmer of hope.

But the person in front of him seemed to have a heart of stone, and was determined to drag Huo Shuixian into an irretrievable situation.

"As long as I am here, she won't have to worry about her life." Murong Ling'er's words were as loud as a bell, resounding to the ground.

She thought to herself, if she really wanted to take Huo Shuixian's life, she could have done it during the countless opportunities in the past, so why wait until now?

"Miss Murong..." Tang Muyang wanted to persuade her again.

"Don't say anything more, hand the person over immediately! We will set off immediately." After Murong Ling'er finished speaking, she stood up and walked straight out with her lotus steps fluttering in the wind, exuding unquestionable majesty.

"You..." Tang Muyang felt a rush of blood to his head and he slammed the table angrily. The sound echoed in the silent room.

He knew in his heart that the Tang family was nothing but ants in front of the imperial court, so how could they compete with it? Tang Muyang, filled with helplessness and resentment, gnashed his teeth, as if he wanted to bite off all the injustices in the world.

Finally, he dragged his legs, which felt as heavy as lead, and slowly moved towards the inner room.

Unexpectedly, when he reached out to open the secret door, Huo Shuixian was standing behind the door like a ghost.

"Miss Huo..." There was a hint of hesitation and reluctance in Tang Muyang's voice.

Huo Shuixian seemed not to hear anything. Her eyes were like cold stars, piercing straight at Tang Muyang. The fierceness in her eyes made Tang Muyang's heart shrink suddenly.

"You just said that I'm not a member of the Huo family? Is that true?" Her voice trembled slightly, but revealed an unquestionable determination.

"Absolutely true, Miss Huo."

Tang Muyang quickly responded, fearing Huo Shuixian might misunderstand. "You are indeed the daughter of the former Protector General's Mansion. The peach blossom birthmark on the back of your foot is exactly the same as the General's wife's. It is a unique mark of the General's bloodline."

Huo Shuixian felt as if a bolt of lightning had struck her from the blue, shaking her to the point of wanting her soul to leave her body. Murong Ling'er also had the same birthmark on her instep. So, Murong Ling'er was not from the Huo family, and she and Murong Ling'er were actually biological sisters! This sudden revelation was like a surging tide, instantly drowning her.

In an instant, thousands of thoughts seemed to rush through Huo Shuixian's mind, and finally, they stopped on her adoptive mother's face, which was always gentle but with a hint of paleness.

"Hahahahahaha..." A burst of laughter suddenly burst out from her throat, and the laughter echoed in the silent space, carrying endless sadness and self-mockery.

"Adoptive mother, you are so cruel!" Huo Shuixian's voice was almost a roar. "All of this is a conspiracy carefully planned by you! You have brought my sister and me to this situation!"

Tang Muyang was so frightened by Huo Shuixian's sudden laughter and shouting that his face turned pale. He shouted anxiously: "Miss Huo! Miss Huo! Calm down!"

However, Huo Shuixian was completely immersed in her own world at this moment, and turned a deaf ear to the voices from the outside world.

Her heart was filled with turmoil. Twenty years of her life were completely turned upside down at this moment, as if it were an illusory and cruel dream. The person she had trusted the most actually used her as a pawn of revenge and played with her at will.

Perhaps, from the very beginning, my adoptive mother adopted me with a vicious purpose, in order to take revenge on the Huo family and the General's Mansion.

Huo Shuixian slowly closed her eyes, and the past came flooding back like a tide.

Over the years, her adoptive mother has been running around under the banner of looking for another daughter, but now she understands that what her adoptive mother is really looking for is Murong Linger.

Back then, Huo Jianjie was unable to arrive in Murong City when his adoptive mother gave birth because the wife of the National Defense General suddenly gave birth prematurely due to an accident, and the child was secretly taken away by Huo Jianjie.

Huo Jianjie did not bring the child back to the Huo Mansion, but chose to give him up for adoption secretly. However, the adoptive mother gave birth to a stillborn baby at that time. In order to maintain her position in the Huo Mansion, she adopted him. She took good care of him and instilled in him the idea that he was the only heir to the Huo Mansion, while secretly searching for the child who was sent away.

The search lasted for fourteen long years, during which time the adoptive mother's health deteriorated.

It turned out that all this was part of her adoptive mother's plan, just to lure her into the game so that she could continue looking for Murong Ling'er and complete her twisted revenge plan.

Huo Shuixian's tears rolled down uncontrollably, and her body trembled with extreme grief and anger.

"How could there be such a cruel person in this world who ruined my sister and I's lives for his own selfish desires!" Huo Shuixian murmured to herself, her voice full of despair.

"puff!"

Huo Shuixian was smiling when suddenly a mouthful of blood spurted out and her body fell limply.

"Miss Huo!"

Tang Muyang's expression suddenly changed. He shouted and hurriedly helped Huo Shuixian, who had fallen to the ground, up.

Murong Ling'er, who had returned, heard the cry and quickly went into the inner room. Seeing Huo Shuixian was so angry that she kept spitting blood from her mouth, she quickly stuffed a pill into her mouth and fed it to her.

"What happened?"

Murong Ling'er turned to ask Tang Muyang.

Tang Muyang's face was filled with shame, and he didn't dare to look Murong Ling'er in the eye. He stammered, "Miss Huo... heard our conversation, asked me a single question, then burst into laughter, and then... vomited blood... and ended up like this."

Tang Muyang really didn't understand why Huo Shuixian was so excited, even angry and desperate. All the people in the General's Mansion were gone. Now, except for his Tang family, no one knew of her existence. Wouldn't it be better for her to hide her identity and be an ordinary member of the Tang family than to be a fugitive?

After hearing this, Murong Ling'er couldn't understand the reason and just thought that she was sad because of the tragic deaths in the General Protector's Mansion.

"Daffodil."

When Murong Ling'er carried the unconscious Huo Shuixian back to the Huo family carriage, Huo Jianjie, who had been waiting there, instantly became anxious when he saw the unconscious Huo Shuixian.

"Ling'er, what happened to Narcissus? What on earth happened?"

Murong Ling'er paused for a moment and looked at Huo Jianjie, who had fallen from a pampered ruler to a fugitive with gray hair over the past few days. She suppressed the urge to tell him the truth.

If he knew that his two beloved daughters were not his biological daughters and that his own daughter might have already passed away, he would probably not be able to bear the blow.

So, Murong Ling'er shook her head and said, "Dad, it's nothing. She just got lost while going to the toilet and is tired. Just let her sleep for a while."

After hearing this, Huo Jianjie finally felt relieved. He was really afraid that something might happen to his little daughter. He couldn't bear the pain of seeing a young person die!
