I don’t know how much time had passed before I heard the sound of crying.
She slowly opened her eyes and saw a round face with bruises and swelling. She knew who it was. "Xiaosun?"
The original owner’s maid, Xiaosun.
"Miss, I'm sorry I couldn't protect you!" Xiaosun cried miserably.
Zi'an endured the burning pain all over his body, slowly stood up, and walked with difficulty step by step to the chair where Madam Linglong had just sat. Her legs and back were badly injured, so sitting on the chair like this was like sitting on pins and needles. However, such sharp pain could keep her brain clear.
A voice in my head rang out shrilly: "Even if I become a ghost, I will not let you go."
She knew that it was the voice of the original owner.
She clenched her fists and felt a cold metal on her middle finger. She was startled and quickly lowered her head. Soul-stealing ring? The Soul-stealing ring actually followed her
The Soul Ring was a weapon developed by scientists when she was in the special agent group. It contained a chip that could automatically absorb sunlight and electricity from the air and turn it into a weapon to attack people.
"When is the wedding scheduled?" Zi'an turned the Soul-Snatching Ring with a cold look in his eyes and asked Xiaosun who was crying sadly.
Xiaosun cried and replied, "Miss, it's tomorrow."
tomorrow!
Zi'an slowly closed his eyes, and everything that had just happened here played over and over in his mind like a movie.
Every time it was played, the rage in her heart grew, and her desire to avenge the original owner grew more urgent.
"Where is mother?" Zi'an asked in a hoarse voice.
Xiaosun gnashed his teeth and said, "When Madam Linglong caught you, Madam went to the old lady's room and made a scene. The old lady was furious and locked Madam in a dark room."
Old lady? An old but majestic face flashed through Zian's mind, an old woman who could disown her relatives for the sake of her family's honor.
"Go tell the old lady and the prime minister that I am willing to get in the bridal sedan, but the prerequisite is that he releases my mother." Zi'an said in a calm voice.
When Xiaosun heard this, she cried even harder. She knew that the young lady had no other choice. If she didn't marry, she would surely die.
Less than half an hour after Xiaosun was gone, Yuan came back.
She was carried in. The old lady was strict in her management and naturally would not tolerate Yuan making a scene, so she ordered her men to beat her severely, leaving her half to death.
Madam Linglong personally escorted Yuan back. She looked at Zi'an with pride and said, "You will have to agree sooner or later. If you agree sooner, you can suffer less. Why bother? You are such a jerk!"
Zi'an stared at the smug face, and Madam Linglong's information formed in her mind.
Madam Linglong, Chen Linglong, married into the Prime Minister's residence as a widow. After entering the residence, she gave birth to twins, a daughter, Xia Wan'er, and a son, Xia Lin. Since then, she has been deeply favored by Prime Minister Xia. Although she is clearly a concubine, she is announced to the outside world as Madam Linglong, directly depriving the position of the mistress of the Yuan family.
And just now, it was she who carried out the punishment and beat both the original owner and herself.
Zi'an stared at her sinisterly, then suddenly raised his hand and, using all his strength, slapped Madam Linglong hard in the face.
Madam Linglong was stunned and could hardly believe that Xia Zian hit her.
"Do you want to live?" Fury immediately surged into her vicious eyes, as if she wanted to skin Zi'an alive.
Zi'an said coldly: "This slap is interest. I will get back what you owe Xia Zi'an one by one."
"Okay, you're a rebel, come here..." Madam Linglong was about to call for help, but Zi'an pulled out the hairpin on his head with one hand, and pressed it against Madam Linglong's neck with lightning speed.
"You dare?" Madam Linglong gasped and looked at Zi'an in disbelief.
Zi'an laughed grimly, "It's just a matter of death, Madam, do you want to gamble your noble life against my lowly life?"
Madam Linglong looked a little withdrawn, "What do you want?"
"Please ask a doctor to heal my mother. Otherwise, I would rather die than get into the bridal sedan!" After saying this, she took off her hairpin, slowly rolled up her hair that was scattered on her shoulders, and tied it into a neat bun.
Madam Linglong's eyes were filled with resentment, and she wished she could cut Zi'an into pieces, but she also knew that it was not a good idea to provoke her now, otherwise she would really refuse to get on the bridal sedan, and Wan'er's dream of becoming the Crown Princess would be shattered.
She snorted, "Just wait!" When she really married into Prince Liang's Mansion, what awaited her was a life worse than pigs and dogs.
After saying that, he turned away coldly.
Madam Linglong did hire a doctor for Yuan, and Zi'an naturally took some white medicine and internal injury medicine. There was a needle kit in the doctor's medicine box, so she gave three taels of silver to buy the needle kit.
When the doctor saw the injuries on Zi'an's body, he was a little surprised that she could still stand up. With such injuries, she would have to stay in bed for at least half a month.
It seems that the eldest daughter of the prime minister's mansion is a person with a very strong will.
After the doctor left, Yuan slowly woke up. Seeing her daughter's face and body covered with wounds, she couldn't help but feel sad. "It was your mother who hurt you."
Zi'an held her hand and tears welled up in her eyes. She had never been one to cry easily, but when she saw the deep love in Yuan's eyes, she, who had never enjoyed motherly love, couldn't help but tremble in her heart.
A voice kept ringing in my ears: I am unwilling, I hate it so much, if someone avenges me, I will repay them by working like a cow or a horse in my next life...
She knew that it was the resentment of the original owner, Xia Zian, that was still lingering in her mind.
She leaned over to Yuan's ear and whispered, "Mother, don't be afraid. We still have time to make plans."
Yuan was startled and looked at her quietly, "Planning?"
Zi'an's lips curled up into a cruel sneer, "That's right, we are planning to send those who harmed us mother and daughter to hell one by one."
She is a military doctor in the special agent team, but she also has to go on missions occasionally. In modern times, her hands are stained with blood, and the people she killed are all extremely evil.
Yuan sat up slowly, her eyes locked on Zi'an.
She felt a little uneasy, but this uneasiness slowly turned into a strange excitement, an excitement of impending revenge.
In order to ensure that Zi'an could get into the bridal sedan smoothly, Prime Minister Xia came that night.
Zi'an took the medicine and felt groggy. When she heard a familiar voice ringing in her ears, she opened her eyes almost immediately.
"If you are obedient, your father will not mistreat your mother. But if you do anything tomorrow, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
After saying this, she threw down a divorce letter and said coldly: "If you get into the bridal sedan, this divorce letter will be destroyed by itself. If not, this divorce letter will be announced to the world."
After saying that, he turned and walked out without even looking at Yuan.
Yuan picked up the divorce letter and read it word by word. The letter accused her of being promiscuous and having an affair with a servant. It was made public and she was divorced from the house and had nothing to do with her life or death.
She slowly closed her eyes, and thought of what happened eighteen years ago when the handsome man said to her lovingly, "I will only love you in this life and we will never be apart."
He pestered her and finally won her heart, but after only one year of marrying him, everything changed for her.
She wanted to tear up the divorce letter, but Zi'an snatched it away and put it in his sleeve pocket. He said to Yuan: "This divorce letter is like a sharp blade. You must hold this blade and stab it into the heart of the person who hurt you."
