From an old woman back to a young girl, she vowed never to marry into a marquisate

But at this time, Zhao Huandi suddenly came forward, grabbed Tang Yue'er's thigh, and said, "Sister Tang, let's go to the woods, let's go now. Anyway, you have experience in the wild, why don't you give me another chance, okay, Sister Tang." As he said that, he pulled Tang Yue'er and tried to drag her into the woods.

Tang Yueer is about to collapse.

She felt dirty. Everything was dirty. All the grievances she had suffered along the way came rushing out.

Why everything Tang Wanru gets is good.

And she deserves to be entangled with these dirty things?

Why? !

Thinking of this, Tang Yueer took the risk and kicked Zhao Huandi in the face. Zhao Huandi was caught off guard and was kicked by Tang Yueer. His face was covered with dirt and his forehead was also broken.

Zhao Huandi lost all feeling instantly and cursed: "Little bitch you fucking——"

He raised his head and saw that Tang Yue'er had already climbed up and was limping on one foot and running quickly towards the light.

Zhao Huandi also got up from the ground, sniffed, and reached out to touch the wound on his forehead.

Looking at Tang Yueer's back, he spat viciously.

*

The front yard of the Hou Mansion.

Tang Wanru sat down with the noble sons and daughters. As the family members of the officials, they all sat in the courtyard, while the officials attending the banquet all sat in the hall.

For example, Tang Jiang.

Many officials came today. Except for some of the emperor's confidants, many officials arrived.

After all, the fight between the emperor and the prince was not publicized, and most officials were unaware of it. Moreover, the Marquis's residence allowed family members to come along this time, and the officials thought that since it was not a very serious banquet, it would be good to bring their families along to sit down.

Among them, some officials wanted to take this opportunity to attach themselves to the prince and find another way out for themselves.

Tang Wanru had only one main purpose for coming here today.

Marry Tang Yueer.

There are a lot of people here today, so it's a good opportunity to push Tang Yue'er out.

Thinking of this, Tang Wanru reached out, picked a grape, and casually put it into her mouth.

Not far away, Zhou Ziyue, standing at the door of the front hall, was staring at Tang Wanru.

Although it was night, Tang Wanru's face seemed even more delicate under the light. In the flickering shadows, her posture was unrestrained and natural, elegant and casual, making people unable to look away after just one look.

At this moment, Zhou Ziyue suddenly felt dazed.

An idea suddenly popped into his mind.

If only he could marry her.

It’s not about whether the Marquis’s family is guilty or not, but as long as he can marry her.

"Prince!" Zhou Ziyue's thoughts were pulled back to reality with a soft shout. Zhou Ziyue turned around and saw Liu An standing there, "Prince, the banquet is about to begin, let's go in."

"Yeah." Zhou Ziyue nodded and turned to enter the front hall.

Although the seats of the noble sons and daughters are some distance away from the hall, there are still many sharp-eyed people watching them.

Miss Zhang had already noticed Zhou Ziyue staring at Tang Wanru, so she whispered, "That Prince Zhou is still looking at Miss Tang. He has been rejected three times, but he is really affectionate."

"Humph!" Miss Li said coldly, "Is he affectionate? He is just pretending. If he was affectionate, would he do that secretly with the second young lady of the Tang family?"

"That's right." Another noble lady also said, "If he was truly in love with the Tang family's second young lady, he should have married her. Why would he be entangled with the eldest young lady?"

"This kind of man is the best at lying!"

"That's right. I also think he's too hypocritical." Miss Zhang glanced at Tang Wanru and added cleverly, "Fortunately Wanru is smart and saw through his schemes. Otherwise, I don't know how much grievances I would have suffered if I had married her."

Tang Wanru listened to every word, but her eyes never left the hall. The banquet inside had already begun.

Today is the old marquis' birthday banquet. After he chatted with the officials for a while, everyone started to present him with gifts.

This is the most important part of today's banquet.

And the gift was not an ordinary one.

Most of the people who came to the banquet today brought him gifts, but they put them down when they entered the door. Those who waited until later to present their gifts publicly were actually the ones who wanted to rely on the prince.

Presenting gifts to the Marquis is showing loyalty to the Prince!

Everyone knows this tacitly.

These are the people the old marquis is waiting for. He wants to know their intentions from this public gift, and then select the right people with the prince and train them vigorously. Last time Zhou Ziyue did not do this well, and Liu Chang, who was chosen by the prince, was directly imprisoned.

Since new candidates in the imperial examinations had no chance, they could still choose from among the old candidates.

However, when the gift-giving part came, no official stood up. Although there were some people in the hall who were interested, they all wanted to play it safe and no one wanted to be the first to take action.

Then the hall fell silent.

This moment of silence made Tang Jiang's mind move. He didn't have so many twists and turns in his mind.

He also couldn't imagine the deeper meaning behind the banquet held in the Marquis' Mansion.

His main purpose today was to marry Tang Yue'er off.

And at this moment, he felt it was a good opportunity.

Seeing that no one was talking, the old marquis became a little anxious. Just as he was about to speak, he saw a man standing in the hall out of the corner of his eye: "Marquis, I have a gift to offer."

Someone broke the deadlock. The old marquis was delighted and immediately turned around to look.

He thought he would be an official with good abilities.

It would be best if it was a young official so that the prince could promote him later. But when he looked carefully, it turned out to be Tang Jiang?

Why did he stand up?

What gift did he have?

Zhou Wu had been disgusted with Tang Jiang since the last incident. And with Tang Jiang's little ability and cowardice, how could he dare to take on the responsibility? If he took on the responsibility, he would have to blame the prince as well.

The old marquis guessed that he might not have understood the profound meaning of this public gift offering, so he stood up, so he said speechlessly: "Lord Tang, didn't you hand over the gift you brought today to the butler when you entered the door? You don't have to offer it at this time, I have already received it." He waved his hand, motioning him to sit down quickly and not to disturb his business.

Unexpectedly, Tang Jiang still stood there motionless: "My Lord, I have a gift to give."

Zhou Wu was speechless for a while, so he had to let him finish speaking as soon as possible, so he waved his hand and said, "Then hurry up and speak."

Tang Jiang stood there straight, looking at everyone present, and said word by word: "I want to offer my daughter Tang Yue'er to the Marquis' Mansion!"
