Shui Yun looked at Jiang Wanqing with a look of nostalgia.

He asked tentatively, "In that dream, was the master persecuted by the family of the Xingchang Marquis' Mansion?"

"Yes, I was afraid that the things in my dream would become true, so I took a step ahead to prevent this possibility."

Jiang Wanqing nodded and looked at the water surface not far away, which was gradually returning to calm.

Zhou Musheng, who had been struggling before, just quietly floated on the surface.

Jiang Wanqing sneered with disdain on his face.

Do you want to wait until you are in high school to take revenge?

How could she possibly give the other party this opportunity?

Finally, Jiang Wanqing ordered: "Find an opportunity to throw Zhou Musheng into the pond of the Xingchang Marquis's Mansion. Before that, find a similar child, put on a human skin mask, wear the same clothes as Zhou Musheng, and walk out of the Jiang residence."

Since Zhou Musheng came to find me, someone would definitely know about it.

She had to provide proof that Zhou Musheng left Jiang's house safely.

"Yes, master."

Shui Yun responded and leaped up to pull Zhou Musheng out of the pool.

Jiang Wanqing looked at Zhou Musheng who had fallen asleep on the ground.

He took a step forward, checked Zhou Musheng's breath, and then heaved a sigh of relief.

He stood up again, turned around and left.

She doesn't want to get involved in unlucky things.

The next day.

Sure enough, news came from the Marquis of Xingchang's Mansion that a funeral had been held.

Early in the morning, Jiang Wanqing asked someone to prepare paper money and prepare to visit the Marquis of Xingchang's Mansion.

Xiaoxiao naturally wanted to go out as well, but Jiang Wanqing coaxed her into handing her over to Nanny Su.

Jiang Wanqing didn't want Xiaoxiao to witness those dirty things.

After Jiang Wanqing and Shui Yun got on the carriage.

Jiang Wanqing then asked, "When you sent Zhou Musheng back yesterday, what were their expressions when they found out that Zhou Musheng was dead?"

"When Song Nansheng saw Zhou Musheng soaking in the pool, he fainted on the spot. As for Zhou Zigu, although he didn't make a big fuss, his expression seemed to have lost his soul."

Shui Yun tried hard to recall what happened at that time.

"Unfortunately, I didn't see that scene."

Jiang Wanqing looked a little regretful.

As for the fate of Zhou Zigu and Song Nansheng, he had to see it with his own eyes to feel that he had avenged himself.

"Master, we can go and see it for ourselves later."

Shui Yun consoled her.

Not long after, the carriage stopped.

Shuiyun lifted the curtain and saw the plaque of Xingchang Marquis' Mansion. At this moment, a white cloth strip was hung on it, and white lanterns were hung on both sides.

"We are here, Master."

Shuiyun jumped off the carriage first.

Then he helped Jiang Wanqing get off the carriage.

Jiang Wanqing looked at the scene in front of him.

When she came to the Marquis of Xingchang's Mansion again, her mood was completely different.

Jiang Wanqing walked towards the Marquis of Xingchang's Mansion.

"lady."

The servant at the door saw Jiang Wanqing appear and subconsciously called her "Madam".

Then, he recalled something and said, "Mrs. Jiang."

Now, Jiang Wanqing has divorced Zhou Zigu.

Naturally, she cannot be called the Madam of the Zhou family.

Jiang Wanqing then nodded.

He winked at Shui Yun again.

Shuiyun handed the paper money in her hand, as well as the gift money, to the servant beside her.

Jiang Wanqing glanced at the list of names receiving gifts.

I found that not many people came.

But think about it.

Now, in the eyes of outsiders, Zhou Musheng is just the adopted son of the Marquis of Xingchang.

Now that Zhou Zigu has returned, he will definitely have his own "biological" children in the future. Zhou Musheng is a bit redundant.

Now that he is dead, all is over. He no longer has to occupy this position that does not belong to him.

Thinking of this relationship, Jiang Wanqing stepped into the mansion again.

Along the way, I didn't see any guests.

The house was quite desolate.

There were fewer servants and maids seen on the road.

It seemed that he noticed Jiang Wanqing's confusion.

Shui Yun explained, "The Xingchang Marquisate doesn't have much money to begin with. In addition, after paying back part of the gold to Wuyou Pavilion, the Xingchang Marquisate is even more broke. So Zhou Zigu has been sending away the maids and servants in the house. I'm afraid he won't even be able to pay the servants."

Hearing Jiang Wanqing, he raised his eyebrows, a little surprised: "A man who doesn't manage a household doesn't know how expensive firewood, rice, oil and salt are. But now that he has been forced into this situation, I'm afraid... he will want to hook up with the princess even more. He already has no way back."

Shui Yun frowned and said, "Zhou Zigu is impotent now, and I don't know how to hide it from Her Royal Highness the Princess."

Jiang Wanqing sneered: "That's his ability."

They were about to arrive at the front hall, and Jiang Wanqing didn't say anything else.

When he saw the coffin placed in the front hall and Zhou Zigu standing silently beside it.

Jiang Wanqing stopped.

Took a glance.

I found that there was no one in the entire front hall.

Yes, the Marquis of Xingchang had already been defeated.

And broke off diplomatic relations with the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion.

Now, it's just the death of an "adopted son", who would care?

What's more, Zhou Zigu has not yet gotten together with Her Royal Highness the Princess, and others cannot figure out the relationship between the two. Therefore, most people are just watching the fun.

As if he had noticed something, Zhou Zigu slowly turned around and saw Jiang Wanqing.

There was some surprise in his eyes.

Then he asked, "Jiang Wanqing, why are you back?"

Jiang Wanqing took a few steps forward on her own.

He took a stick of incense from the side, lit it, and then placed it in front of the hall.

After she had done everything, she turned around and looked directly at Zhou Zigu: "I heard about Mu Sheng's news, so I wanted to come and see him off. After all, I have been his mother for more than a year. Although you and I are divorced, I still have some feelings for him. He was fine a few days ago, how come he is like this all of a sudden?"

Jiang Wanqing looked very innocent.

Looking at his expression, I felt sorry for Zhou Musheng's disgust.

However, the pale look on Zhou Zigu's face still frightened her.

Zhou Zigu frowned and looked at Jiang Wanqing deeply.

It seems like he wants to see through the person in front of him.

I saw Jiang Wanqing had a worried look on his brow.

Zhou Zigu suddenly laughed out loud.

He questioned, "Now you are talking about your fate with Mu Sheng? Why did you stand by and watch him die before? You chose to stand by and watch Wuyou Pavilion pressed on step by step, didn't you?"

Jiang Wanqing opened his mouth and said, "You and I were already divorced at that time, so there was absolutely no reason for me to pay off the debt. If I knew he would be like this today... maybe I would help him."
