In a dark alley, a woman looked at the person in front of her in horror.
"Tell me, where is the roster?" Tai Shuqi raised his lips and asked jokingly.
And this woman with disheveled hair was the person who wanted to assassinate Xie Wanyu during the day, and she was also Wu Qinghong who was living outside.
Yan Qingzhao held a dagger across her neck. Unexpectedly, the person they had been looking for would fall into the trap.
Wu Qinghong escaped after Wu Kang was arrested. When she escaped, she also took the list of corrupt persons with her.
Wu Qinghong looked at Tai Shuqiu with admiration, the man she fell in love with at first sight.
"As long as the prince keeps me by his side, I will hand over that roster."
She looked at Tai Shuqi with fascination.
"Do you think you are qualified to negotiate terms with me? Even if I kill you, I will still get it." Tai Shuqi looked at her indifferently.
Wu Qinghong's face turned pale. She knew that Tai Shuqi would not let her go, but she still did not want to die.
"Your Majesty, what if I tell you that I know a secret of yours?"
Tai Shuqi raised his eyebrows indifferently, waiting for her next words.
"Xie Wanyu."
Just a name made Tai Shuqing's face change slightly, and his eyes turned cold when he looked at Wu Qinghong.
Seeing him like this, Wu Qinghong felt that she had made the right bet and couldn't help laughing.
"The prince's princess is actually someone else's wife. If this news is known to others, what will happen to her..."
Before she could finish her sentence, blood spilled from the corner of Wu Qinghong's mouth. She lowered her head in shock and looked at the long sword on her chest.
"Your Majesty!" Yan Qingzhao shouted.
"Search her and then dispose of the body." Tai Shuqi ordered quietly.
After saying that, he left the alley.
Early the next morning, Zhu Fang packed everything. They didn't have many things, so it was easy to pack them up.
The journey back took one day longer than the journey here.
Xie Wanyu did not follow him to Kyoto City, but asked for a carriage to go to Panyun Mountain.
Tai Shuzhen wanted to return to Kyoto City to report Hancheng to the emperor, so he did not see her off in person, but told her to be more careful.
Seeing Panyun Mountain, Xie Wanyu had a real sense of coming back.
This time, in just a few days, she went to Hancheng in northern Xinjiang and experienced life and death, which actually made her feel a bit unreal.
"Madam, isn't that the Xiao family's carriage?"
Zhu Fang's voice brought Xie Wanyu back to reality. She opened the curtains and looked back. Sure enough, it was the Xiao family.
"It seems that the Xiao family has sent someone here. Let's go in through the back door." Xie Wanyu ordered.
"Yes." Zhufang told the driver to turn around and enter Panyun Mountain from another entrance.
As soon as Xie Wanyu got off the carriage, she heard a quarrel coming from the front yard.
"You are just an adopted son. Madam thinks highly of you so she calls you Third Young Master. Do you really think of yourself as your master?"
"What are you still waiting for? Go in and invite the lady back to the house."
"No entry allowed." Xiao Tuo stood in front of several people. How could his small body block several burly servants.
Just as they were about to rush in, Dawu came out with a stick.
"Let's see who dares to break in!"
He swung the stick and the servant screamed after being beaten.
"We are here to pick up the lady on the order of the old lady. If you stop her like this, aren't you afraid of the old lady's punishment?" Aunt Feng took two steps back in fear and pinched her waist with both hands.
Dawu glanced at them and said, "I only listen to Madam. I don't know what Madam is saying."
"You...you are an arrogant and unreasonable person!"
"Cough cough cough..."
There was a violent cough, and Xie Wanyu was helped out by Zhu Fang.
Dawu looked at the person in front of him in surprise, "Madam, please come back... ah!"
Before he could finish what he said later, he bent over and exhaled in pain.
It turned out that Xiao Tuo was worried that he was talking nonsense, so he stepped on him hard.
After Xie Wanyu appeared, Mammy and others all backed away.
"What are you going to do? Since you asked me to go back, why are you afraid of me?"
As soon as Xie Wanyu finished speaking, Nanny Feng immediately retorted, "Madam, it's better to wear a veil."
"Go back and tell grandma that I am fine, but the doctor's diagnosis was wrong." Xie Wanyu was too lazy to talk to them anymore and turned around to walk into the hospital.
When I came back, I happened to meet Grandma He. Grandma He had already told her everything.
Xie Wanyu's attitude angered Grandma Feng.
"It's better to ask Madam to go back and talk to the old lady in person."
He is just a sick man, but he still dares to be arrogant here.
Xie Wanyu's face darkened. She calculated the time and realized that she had indeed been away from the Xiao family for too long, so she should go back and take a look.
"Let's go."
When Xie Wanyu returned to the Xiao family, the servants along the way avoided her.
Aunt He sighed. She knew this would happen, and she didn't agree to say that Madam had tuberculosis.
"Mommy, take the third young master back to Qiran Courtyard first."
"Yes." Aunt He took Xiao Tuo away from another path.
Xie Wanyu followed Nanny Feng towards Tai'antang, but suddenly stopped halfway.
"Stop!" she said coldly.
Nanny Feng, who had been taking her with her, was startled and turned to look at her without knowing why.
"You want to take me there?"
This was not the way to Tai'an Hall. If she remembered correctly, it was the way to the dilapidated courtyard in the southeast corner. This courtyard was often rumored to be haunted.
Aunt Feng calmly took a few steps back and said, "Madam, you misunderstood. I want to take you to greet the old lady."
Say hello? Say hello to whom?
Xie Wanyu sneered and slapped Nanny Feng off guard.
She was weak, and this slap almost used all her strength.
Aunt Feng was stunned. She reacted and wanted to be violent with Xie Wanyu, but when she saw the sarcasm in Xie Wanyu's eyes, she was a little afraid to do it. After all, Xie Wanyu is still the daughter of Mrs. Hou Xie's family, and she still has a lot of dowry. .
"Although Madam is the mistress of the house, she can't attack her servants without any reason!"
"I beat you because you were disrespectful to my grandmother. This is obviously the way to that shabby yard. I just left the Xiao family for a few days, but you actually threw your grandmother into that shabby yard?"
Aunt Feng couldn't argue, "Old Madam, she...she..."
She couldn't say that the old lady thought her illness was unlucky and was afraid of infecting others, so she locked her up in that shabby yard.
Until she died of illness so that he could take over her dowry.
Xie Wanyu looked her up and down and knew whose idea it was, "It seems that grandma is not in that shabby yard. She wants me to live in this shabby yard. Since grandma doesn't like me so much, I don't think there is any need to stay." Alright."
After saying that, Xie Wanyu turned to leave.
But Nanny Feng quickly stopped her, "Madam, please don't embarrass me."
At this moment, Mrs. Xiao came over supported by the maid.
She was kind and kind, "Wanyu, please don't be angry. I'm doing this for your health. I've renovated this yard, and it's just right for you to recuperate."
Although his tone was affectionate, he stopped one meter away from Xie Wanyu.
Xie Wanyu sarcastically said, "Thank you so much, grandma. I am recovering well in Panyun Mountain. Besides, it was just a misdiagnosis by the doctor. I did not suffer from tuberculosis."
Saying that, Xie Wanyu wanted to go over and help Mrs. Xiao, but Mrs. Xiao took a step back in panic.
