Not long after returning to the courtyard, a group of guards with swords suddenly appeared outside the courtyard, and the courtyard was tightly surrounded.
Tao Zi looked at their murderous looks, as if they had just come off the battlefield, and suddenly felt uneasy.
Without waiting for her to speak, A Fang quickly opened the courtyard door and wanted to go out, but was stopped by the guards. She said coldly: "Who are you? How dare you surround Madam's courtyard!"
The guards didn't speak, and no matter what method A Fang tried, he couldn't get anything out of him.
Tao Zi lowered her eyes and said, "Afang, come back."
She was sitting in the inner room, with several maids standing around her solemnly.
In the evening, Ah Yuan came back. Fortunately, the guard didn't stop anyone from coming in.
Seeing her panicked expression made Tao Zi even more uneasy. Unlike Ah Fang, Ah Yuan was always steady and appropriate, and it was rare for her to panic.
Ah Yuan knelt in front of her and said with a sob voice: "Madam, the general's mansion has been raided!"
She suddenly stood up and said sternly: "Tell me everything carefully."
She said with a trembling voice: "Someone got the proof of collaboration with the enemy from the general's palace. The Holy Emperor was furious. The whole family was imprisoned as early as the day before yesterday. Half a month later, the men were beheaded and the women were made slaves."
Tao Zi's legs softened and she sat on the chair.
She forced herself to calm down. There was no way her father was collaborating with the enemy. Someone must have framed him!
At this time, someone walked in, it was Xiaozheng's concubine.
Tao Zi looked at the pride on her face and said coldly: "Aunt Xu, what do you know?"
With the help of the maid, Aunt Xu found a stool to sit on and said, "Madam, you are wrong. My surname is Zhou and my name is Zhou Jiaojiao."
She clenched her fists. Zhou Jiaojiao was the name of the concubine a few years ago.
In an instant, she figured everything out.
She said word by word: "Did that bastard Zhou Qifang frame my father?"
Zhou Jiaojiao was stunned there, wondering how she knew about this.
Tao Zi looked at her expression and immediately realized that she had guessed correctly.
Back then, Zhou Qifang was not able to save people from his own eyes, let alone create a new identity for Zhou Jiaojiao.
Those who have the ability to do this must have something to ask for.
Luring the wolf into the house, really luring the wolf into the house!
In shock and anger, a mouthful of blood spat out from his throat.
"lady!"
All the maids hurried over to help Tao Zi.
By chance Zhou Qifang walked in and said anxiously: "Tao Zi, if you dare..."
After he saw the scene in the house, he immediately closed his mouth.
Tao Zi wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth and said: "Zhou Qifang, you will not die well if you harm my whole family!"
Zhou Jiaojiao stood up in a panic and said, "Cousin, I really didn't say anything."
Zhou Qifang ordered: "Take my aunt back."
Then he looked at Tao Zi and said: "Your father joined my family in the past, causing Jiaojiao to fall into prostitution, while I was exiled. If I hadn't met a noble person, how could I have a new identity to take revenge. Now, I just send you Why not produce proof that my father is collaborating with the enemy?"
Tao Zi calmed down, slowly took out a hairpin from the dressing table and inserted it into her bun without saying a word.
Seeing her like this, Zhou Qifang also breathed a sigh of relief: "One day is a blessing for a couple, not to mention you saved my life. Don't worry, the Holy One will be tolerant and will not harm the married daughter. I will keep your status as my wife, but from now on, you Don't leave this courtyard. The guards outside will only stay for a while and will leave after the Tao family has dealt with everything."
There were tears in her eyes: "Zhou Lang, you always want me to see my father for the last time."
He was stunned, but for some reason, he still agreed.
Half a month later, Tao Zi stood in the inn closest to Wenzhan in the capital, looking at his relatives from a distance.
"Noon has arrived!"
Tao Zi closed her eyes, knelt down, and kowtowed to that spot three times. When she looked up again, the ground was already covered in blood.
She closed her eyes, and Zhou Qifang's voice slowly came from behind her: "Wuyou, don't worry, I won't take my anger out on you for your father's affairs. You can still live a good life after returning to the Zhou family."
She suddenly pulled out the hairpin from her hair, turned around and was about to rush over, when the scene in front of her suddenly fell apart.
A woman slowly walked over from the broken scene and asked: "Do you hate it? I will give you a chance to be reborn, do you want it?"
Tao Zi gradually calmed down and asked, "Who are you?"
"Me? Of course I am an immortal who cannot bear to see such a tragic thing."
She smiled and called softly: "Worry-free."
The woman put away her understatement and looked over: "What are you talking about?"
"Wuyou, you are Wuyou, the eldest lady of the General's Mansion."
She looked at her with an incomprehensible expression: "You are Wuyou."
She had already remembered everything, so naturally she didn't take these words to heart and asked directly: "What do you want me to do?"
The woman said calmly: "Of course it's revenge. I want Zhou Qifang's family to be destroyed, and I want the family to be safe and sound."
Tao Zi looked at the woman coldly and said slowly: "The eldest lady of the General's Mansion is also a ghost from at least three thousand years ago."
The woman smiled: "So what, I still can't get revenge."
She didn't care about what the woman said at all, and just murmured: "The ghost of three thousand years ago, the relic of the great power in the out-of-body stage. How did I wake up in the early stage of solid state? I think it was you who made me wake up."
Seeing that she was completely ignoring her, the woman asked helplessly: "You don't want to pass the test?"
Tao Zi asked back: "Whether you can pass this test depends on whether you are satisfied or not, right? What's more, no matter how smooth it is, it can't change what has already happened."
The woman's expression gradually became terrifying: "Don't you hate it?"
"This didn't happen to me, why should I hate it?" Tao Zi's tone was very calm, "I can only say that I feel sorry for your family."
When he said this, Tao Zi was actually helpless. Wenxinguan was such a trap. He couldn't lie when facing the gatekeeper, but he had to do what the gatekeeper wanted.
For this reason, she could not pretend that she was not awake, nor could she pretend to empathize with him, but she would not be able to comply with the gatekeeper's wishes.
Hey, probably only the kind people like Xi Jing will have a chance to pass this time.
Tao Zi was extremely helpless in her heart, but she didn't show it on the surface.
The woman stared at her, her expression suddenly became normal, and she said again: "If it were you, what would you do?"
"What?"
"Two opportunities, rebirth, start everything over again; transform into a ghost, secretly watching for the opportunity of revenge."
Tao Zi cheered up, is there still a chance?
She weighed the two options in her mind and said, "For ghosts."
"But if this is the case, my parents and relatives will not be able to be saved."
Tao Zi's tone was very calm: "The reborn parents and relatives are not the original people. What you rescued is your family in another world. In the original world, your enemies are still alive and well."
The woman looked at her, smiled, and her tears fell down a little. She bowed deeply to her and said, "Thank you."
Tao Zi was at a loss.
