After being reborn in the Mass Grave, she overturned her predecessor's power

On the eve of Shaoyao's return to Lihua Village, Jiang Xue Ning sent Wu Jin and Bai Yu with men to ambush in the cabin in advance and set up a dragnet to capture her as soon as she returned.

As for Gu Hanzhou, it was easier. After all, the palace was her territory, and it was too easy to make any moves.

She called Bai Zhu over, "Give him some food."

It was time to do something "bad" again. Bai Zhu said excitedly, "This is easy. It's a good time to try my new medicine Sanbudao."

On that day, Shaoyao packed up simply and left home early in the morning.

After leaving the palace, she hired a carriage and headed straight for Lihua Village.

After returning to the village, she lowered her head and walked to the hundred-year-old pear trees at the entrance of the village. There were a few old people there, chatting about family matters.

She said shyly and quietly, "Grandpa Zhang, Grandma Li...During the time I was away, has anyone come to inquire about my whereabouts?"

Several old men waved their palm-leaf fans, looked at each other and said, "You have no relatives or friends, who would come to ask about you?"

"Where have you been all this time? Why don't you go home?"

Several people gathered around her and started gossiping, so she quickly found an excuse and ran away.

She asked all the villagers she met along the way, but they all said no one had asked about her, so she was relieved.

After performing the whole show, she came back and in order to avoid gossip, she carried incense and paper money and returned to the wooden house.

The moment she opened the door, she sensed danger and turned around to leave.

A long sword with a cold glow came towards her through the air, and a large net dropped from the eaves directly caught her.

She shot out several flying knives very quickly, but Wu Jin dodged them.

Soon the sword was at her neck, and the net that encircled her tightened, and she could not move. The fight was over before it even started.

She lowered her head with an unpleasant look, pretending to be scared and asked, "What are you doing?"

The old woman who had been hiding nearby rushed out, "Give me back Shaoyao's life. What did that child do wrong? You, a damned bastard, killed her and dumped her body in the wilderness!"

It turned out that after returning home that day, the old woman found the silver that Jiang Xue Ning had placed in her basket.

She used the silver to buy wine and meat, went to the village chief's door, and knelt down in front of him.

Finally, the village chief organized all the people in Lihua Village to go out and brought all the dogs. After searching for three days in the back mountain, they found Shaoyao's body buried in the wilderness.

Wu Jin and her friends came last night. After they explained their purpose, the villagers were very cooperative, so no one revealed the truth to her today.

She just lowered her head and said nothing.

Wu Jin helped the old woman up. "The bad guy has been caught. We will not let her go. Let Shaoyao rest in peace and let her go in peace."

The old woman wiped her tears and said, "Thank that girl for me."

The remaining silver ingot that Jiang Xue Ning gave was enough for Shaoyao to be buried decently.

Wu Jin kicked the person in the net and said, "You are quite good at choosing. You chose such a pitiful little girl. You are really wicked."

It was lunch time in the palace. Although he was worried, Gu Hanzhou was able to eat.

The hard days of hiding in the cave made him take eating seriously. Even if he wanted to do something, he had to eat enough to have the strength.

As a result, after finishing a bowl of chicken soup, he fell on the table in an instant. The maid who was serving him immediately ran to call for help.

"Someone come quickly, Master Wen has fainted!"

Soon everyone came over after hearing the noise. Looking at the unconscious person lying on the table, Gu Tangli said in disbelief, "It's so easy to handle?"

Jiang Xue Ning said with satisfaction, "Who made him fall into the trap and run to the palace?"

She waved her hand and the guards dragged him to the dark cell. At night, Shaoyao was also captured.

"Let's go meet them after dinner."

It was already late at night when they arrived.

The two men were chained to the iron frame of the secret prison, and Gu Hanzhou was still unconscious.

Jiang Xue Ning gestured, "Give him a basin of water."

Soon, a jailer poured a basin of cold water on him, and he slowly woke up. When he came to his senses and saw the situation clearly, his heart became even colder.

"What does it mean?"

Gu Tangli looked into his eyes and said word by word with hatred, "Gu Hanzhou, we meet again. Are you surprised?"

"I'm not Gu Hanzhou, I'm Wen Shiyue, did you misunderstand something?"

He was disappointed, but he refused to admit it.

Seeing that he was still stubborn, Gu Tangli walked over and stroked his cheek with her fingertips, "You must have stolen this face from Master Wen."

"You said you were Wen Shiyue, do you still remember what you said to me?"

Of course he didn't remember it, and he had no idea what kind of interactions the two had in private or what they said.

Jiang Xue Ning said coldly, "You found Die Niang, the successor of the Jianghu magic of face-changing, and asked her to replace your and Wen Shiyue's faces. Then let your substitute create the illusion that you are dead on the battlefield, and you come back with Wen Shiyue's face and identity."

"What a perfect plan! You are lurking around the princess like a poisonous snake, ready to bite back at any time."

“Haha, hahahahahaha…”

After being completely exposed, he stopped pretending and laughed crazily. He looked at her with a malicious look on his face, "Even though my plan was perfect, you still saw through it."

Gu Tangli slapped him hard, "I have been by your side and served you wholeheartedly for so many years. No one knows you better than me. Even if you turned into ashes, I would recognize you."

"So I should have killed you first. No... maybe I shouldn't have entered Xiangchu again."

This place is unlucky for him, and Jiang Xue Ning is such a weird woman. She could actually find out about such an incredible thing as face-changing.

The fake peony next to it washed its face with the medicine made with Atractylodes, and its true appearance was revealed.

It is somewhat similar to the real peony, and the face is painted yellow with herbs, and the facial features are adjusted with makeup, and the same dress. Although the face has not been changed, it is difficult to find the clues without careful observation.

Shaoyao didn't like to socialize with people in the village and liked to keep her head down. This made it even more convenient for her, so everything was carefully planned.

Everything was clear. Mu Linlang only cared about one thing, "Where is Wen Shiyue?"

"If you want to know his whereabouts, let me go."

"Impossible." Mu Linlang flatly refused, "People like you can only rest in peace if they are turned into ashes and put in a coffin."

After what happened this time, she dared not give him a chance to live. As long as he was alive, there was no telling when he would do something strange again, or come back again.

"If he doesn't tell me, you tell me." Jiang Xue Ning said to Shao Yao, "Tell me the truth and I will give you a quick death."

Fake Peony smiled bitterly, "I don't know. After entering Xiangchu, I have been lurking in Lihua Village. I don't know anything else."

It was not until Gu Hanzhou found her and took out a token to prove his identity that she began to cooperate with him. There were many things she was not clear about.
