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

When Tang Wanru was walking through the corridor, a cold voice suddenly came: "Ms. Tang, have you really grown up this time?"

Tang Wanru was startled, and when she turned her head, she saw Lin Ying, who was wearing a black gauze dress, sitting against the pillar. Lin Ying was tall and thin, with an oval face and a pair of phoenix eyes, and looked very heroic.

"Cousin." Tang Wanru called her.

Lin Ying's expression remained cold. "He has grown some brains and knows how to find the spy among his own people."

What she was talking about was naturally asking Lin Junchen to help her find the spy.

"Thank you for the compliment, cousin." Tang Wanru smiled gently.

"I hope you're not acting on impulse." Lin Ying teased her coldly.

Tang Wanru knew that her previous behavior had hurt Lin Ying's heart, so she could understand why she was almost hurt by her.

Tang Wanru was not angry at all. Instead, she came closer to her with a smile. She glanced at the red string on her wrist and couldn't help but smile as she continued to stick to her.

Lin Ying was confused by her approaching with a chuckle, and couldn't help wondering: "What are you going to do?"

"Does your cousin have a lover?" she asked with a smile.

Lin Ying's expression changed: "You..." How did this girl know that?

It was rare that Lin Ying's pretty face suddenly blushed.

Tang Wanru certainly knew that at this time in the previous life, Lin Ying had already met Xu Zhiqing who came to Beijing to take the imperial examination. He had just arrived in Beijing to take the imperial examination and had not yet become the top scorer.

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Lin Ying calmed down and refuted firmly, "That's not true."

It didn’t matter if she didn’t admit it. Tang Wanru came up to her casually and held her slender hand.

"Tang Wanru, don't always be so self-righteous. You——"

Before she could finish her words, she felt a chill on her wrist. The red rope on her wrist had been untied by Tang Wanru and fell into her hand.

"Since you don't have it, then give this to me." As she said this, Tang Wanru had already stepped back three meters, put the red rope in her clothes, and turned around and ran away.

"You!" Lin Ying was speechless. Why did this girl grab everything?

The red string is her and——

Thinking of this, a trace of speechlessness appeared on Lin Ying's stern face.

Tang Mansion, Ancestral Hall.

Liu was kneeling there to worship Buddha. Tang Yue'er was sitting in the corner with dishevelled hair and dirty face. She suddenly seemed to remember something, and suddenly rushed over from the corner, hugged Liu, and scared her.

"Mom, I remember now. It was Tang Wanru who bumped into me." Tang Yue'er was very excited. "When I was leaving the house, Tang Wanru suddenly rushed over and bumped into me. It was at that time that she hung the necklace on my back."

Oh, what's the point of saying this at this time?

Why didn’t I think of it when I was in front of the lady of the Marquis’s Mansion?

Liu thought helplessly.

"Yuer, don't think about these things. Let's go out and talk about it first." Liu was a little annoyed after being locked up for two days. This morning, she asked the servants to pass a message to Tang Jiang saying that she had a severe headache. Now she was waiting patiently for Tang Jiang to let her out.

"How can I go out and talk about it later? It was Tang Wanru who cheated me. That's why that old witch grabbed my hair for so long. I'm going to tell my father and ask him to punish Tang Wanru." Tang Yue'er was resentful about being bullied and she had to have an explanation.

"Yuer, do you have any evidence?"

"What evidence do you need? My words are the evidence. She was the only one who touched my back that day. It was her!" Tang Yue'er said anxiously.

What kind of evidence is this?

"Who do you think you are?" Liu said, "You need others to see you and point the finger at you."

"Testify?" Tang Yue'er recalled that Tang Wanru suddenly bumped into her. She was so flustered that no one would have noticed this detail. "If no one saw it, who would testify? But I know this is the truth."

"Yuer, forget it." There was really no point in saying this at this time. Tang Jiang was angry because Tang Yueer had stolen and ruined Tang Wanru's marriage, so he locked them up here. Now that the marriage has been ruined, who is still interested in knowing how the necklace got to Tang Yueer?

Fortunately, the necklace was returned anyway.

That’s all.

But she was also very puzzled by this matter. She had clearly given the necklace to Liu Duo at that time, so how could it have returned to Tang Yueer?

But if we start the investigation from Liu Duo, there might be some clues.

"Yuer. No matter where the necklace came from, I have already told your father. Just say that you were wrongly accused and that you know nothing. Don't accuse Tang Wanru without evidence, otherwise it will only backfire."

"But it's her."

"Don't you want to go out?" Liu asked angrily.

Tang Yue'er lowered her head and said nothing.

"If you want to go out, just be good. We'll be out soon."

Tang Yueer bit her lip and said aggrievedly: "I know."

Seeing Tang Yue'er's messy hair and pitiful appearance, Liu recalled that Du had pulled her hair in front of so many people the day before. She felt really bad, but couldn't bear to blame her. She just stepped forward and pulled her over, smoothed her long hair and said, "Yu'er, the Yongning Marquis's marriage proposal has failed again this time."

"Tang Wanru is one step further away from marrying into the Yongning Marquis's Mansion."

Tang Yue'er didn't want to hear such words, so she quickly refuted her and said, "Prince Zhou will continue to think of ways. Such a small difficulty cannot defeat Prince Zhou. He is a very patient and thoughtful person."

"I know." Liu nodded, "But the question now is what should we do?"

"What should I do?" Tang Yue'er had been thinking about the injustice she had suffered from yesterday to today, so she seemed a little confused when suddenly asked.

"It's Prince Zhou's business to come up with another solution, but we have to prevent Tang Wanru from marrying into the Bai family," Liu emphasized.

Yes, the marriage proposal from Yongning Marquis Mansion failed, so does the Bai family have another chance?

"When Liu Qiu came to deliver food this morning, I heard rumors that Tang Wanru refused to join the Yongning Marquisate because of the second son of the Bai family."

"How is it possible?" She was so focused on who had hurt her in the morning that she really didn't hear anything. Now she felt like jumping up and down when she heard it. But she quickly remembered that Tang Wanru had said that she was willing to have the Bai family come to her house to propose marriage, and she felt a little uncertain. "Mom, what should we do then?"

"What should we do? Of course you should go find Bai Yanli."

"Me?" Tang Yue'er was still brooding over what happened in the peony garden that day. She always felt that she couldn't win over Bai Yanli.

"Don't worry, this time I will find a way. No matter what the cost, you must take down the second son of the Bai family!"

"You have to have confidence, Yue'er!" Liu emphasized.

Tang Yue'er thought about it and decided that she must take down Bai Yanli, no matter what the cost. Tang Yue'er gathered her long hair and nodded.

At this time, the door of the ancestral hall opened and Tang Jiang came in. When Liu saw him coming, her eyes instantly filled with tears. She sobbed pitifully and went to greet him.
