My reborn husband and son are thinking about how to kill me every day.

In Hongdu, most prominent families knew just how extraordinary Xie Liang's identity was.

In fact, the many titles that Xiao An mentioned to Ji Yunshuang that day were only part of Xie Liang's identity.

Xie Liang's grandfather was a founding father of the Great Zhou Dynasty and a pioneer in military science.

Xie Liang not only inherited his grandfather's true skills, but also followed the late emperor in his campaigns, helping him expand the territory of the Great Zhou Dynasty. He was once hailed as a genius of his time and an unparalleled national talent.

The late emperor had repeatedly tried to persuade him to stay in the capital to assist the crown prince. However, Xie Liang refused, saying he was used to a life of leisure and freedom.

Xie Liang, who claimed to be used to a life of leisure, came to Jiangzhou to serve as a military advisor to Prince Rui after the death of the Crown Prince and the ascension of the eldest grandson of the Emperor.

This has led many to believe that Prince Rui has a good chance of seizing the throne.

Naturally, Xie Liang's actions made Prince Rui a thorn in the side of all factions, who wished to get rid of him immediately.

It could be said that in Jiangzhou, Xie Liang's status was higher than that of several of Prince Rui's sons.

How could one not be curious when he actually met an unknown woman in a teahouse?

What was the woman's identity, and what made her so special that Xie Liang wanted to meet her in person?

Soon, people found out the result.

Xie Liang, who hadn't taken on any disciples for a long time, surprisingly accepted a woman as his disciple this time. This woman was none other than Ji Yunshuang, who had fled to Jiangzhou as a refugee.

The news caused an uproar among the wealthy and powerful families of Hongdu.

So many of them tried every possible way to send their children to Xie Liang as disciples, but to no avail. How come she, a woman, was accepted as a disciple by Xie Liang?

The first reaction from everyone was, "On what basis?"

What skills did she possess that made Xie Liang take a liking to her?

Regardless of how resentful these powerful families were, when Tian Chou heard the news, he couldn't help but marvel at how lucky his young master was.

This woman became Xie Liang's disciple, and my young master was that woman's apprentice. In effect, my young master had become Xie Liang's disciple.

This is an incredible bargain!

Without delay, Tian Chou quickly relayed the good news to Wei Zhenfang.

Wei Zhenfang was also extremely surprised when he saw the news.

He never expected that his eldest son, whom he had given up on and had not thought highly of, would eventually have this opportunity through his own hard work and struggle.

On the contrary, his second son, on whom he had placed high hopes and with whom he had put a lot of effort, turned out to be a good-for-nothing.

Feeling both regretful and guilty, he picked up his pen and wrote a letter, which he then asked Tian Chou to deliver to Wei Shen.

When Wei Shen saw the letter Tian Chou sent, he sneered, "I haven't had a father for a long time. You must have sent this letter to the wrong place."

Tian Chou advised, "Young Master, the General was also deceived by that wicked woman back then, so don't blame him. The General still cares about you. You should read the letters he sent you."

"I'm afraid it's not out of concern for me, but because they know Wei Yuqi is crippled and they heard that my master has joined Elder Xie's tutelage, that's why they remembered me, right?"

Wei Shen snorted coldly, "He's got a good plan, but he's miscalculated. I won't acknowledge him. Once I've mastered my skills, one day I'll take his life and avenge my mother!"

Tian Chou sighed and said, "Young Master, you have a very deep misunderstanding of the General."

The lady's death should not be blamed on the general at all. Your attempt to kill the general for revenge is utterly absurd.

Besides, if you kill the general, your life is over. I think that's the last thing your wife would want to see in the afterlife.

"How can it be unrelated to him? If he hadn't been so blind to people and easily misled, my mother wouldn't have been killed."

Wei Shen scoffed, "You don't need to speak up for him anymore, and I won't be going back to the Wei family. You'd be better off going back and persuading him to care more about Wei Yuqi; maybe there's still hope!"

Tian Chou wanted to persuade him again, but Wei Shen didn't look at him again and turned away.

He glanced down at the letter in his hand, could only sigh, and truthfully reported the situation to Wei Zhenfang.

After Wei Shen left, he went to Shuanghe Village to find Ji Yunshuang.

Seeing Ji Yunshuang carrying things onto the carriage, Wei Shen immediately went to help, "Master, are you going out?"

Ji Yunshuang nodded, and Wei Shen hurriedly said, "I want to go too."

Ji Yunshuang chuckled, "Do you even know where I'm going? And you're already going?"

Wei Shen said, "No matter where you go, I will go with you."

Seeing Wei Shen say this, Lu Yuzhu quickly followed suit and said, "No matter where Mother goes, Zhuzhu will go with you."

Lu Yanqi didn't repeat what his sister said, but there was a hint of worry in his eyes.

Ji Yunshuang gently patted Lu Yuzhu's head and said, "Good girl, Zhuzhu, stay home and wait for your mother!"

After saying that, she looked at Lu Yanqi and said, "Take good care of your sister. If anything happens, have Tianrui come to me."

Perhaps due to being fed the nectar of the spatial flowers, the little tiger not only grew strong and sturdy, but was also incredibly fast. In addition to being fierce and robust, it was also exceptionally intelligent.

He can understand whatever Ji Yunshuang and the others usually ask him to do.

Ji Yunshuang went to the army with Xie Liang this time, so of course she couldn't bring the child with her. However, although she couldn't bring the child, she could send Tianrui to deliver a message or something.

Lu Yanqi hugged Lu Yuzhu and comforted her, "It's okay, don't cry, brother is with you."

Lu Yuzhu, whose eyes were already brimming with tears, felt even more upset upon hearing her brother's words, and tears instantly rolled down her cheeks.

Gu Chunzhi also held back her tears and tried to persuade Ji Yunshuang again, saying, "There are still a few days until the New Year. The child will be reluctant to leave. Why don't you wait until after the New Year to go?"

Ji Yunshuang shook her head at Gu Chunzhi, squatted down, hugged Lu Yuzhu, kissed her cheek, took out a bag of candy and gave it to her, saying, "One a day. I'll be back when I finish the candy in this bag."

Lu Yuzhu, holding a bag of candy, looked at Ji Yunshuang with her big eyes and said, "Really? You really came back after you finished all the candy in there?"

Seeing the tear stains in her eyes, Ji Yunshuang also felt a pang of reluctance and sadness.

At first, I just thought she was cute and decided to raise her casually for my own amusement. But I ended up developing feelings for her!

Ji Yunshuang suppressed the bitterness in her heart and smiled, "Really, but you can't sneak any! You can only eat one a day."

After saying that, she peeled a seed and fed it to her.

Lu Yuzhu ate the sweet and sour candy and nodded obediently.

Ji Yunshuang stood up and called to Wei Shen, "Let's go!"

Wei Shen hurriedly jumped onto the carriage, saying, "Master, I'll drive."

Ji Yunshuang rolled her eyes at him. "Of course you're the one driving the carriage."

Wei Shen innocently touched the bridge of his nose, thinking to himself, "It seems that my master is not in a good mood today. I'd better not say anything that might upset her."

But once the carriage left Shuanghe Village, he couldn't hold back any longer and asked, "Master, where are we going? Which way do we go next?"
