Reborn as the Savior of a Short-lived Father and Son

Aunt Yao has become so tired of hearing these words.

She tried countless ways to escape from Yao Shiliang, but the endings were all tragic without exception.

Gu Qinghe guessed correctly. Her previous illness was not caused by Yao Shiliang, but by him.

So much so that when she heard this, she didn't feel the slightest bit of emotion in her heart. She just sneered and turned her head away, "Let me go? Then, you send me there, whether it's a beggar or a groom, can I sleep with him as long as I pay?"

"Enough!" Yao Shiliang's eyes were red and almost bleeding, as if he had been stabbed. "I have already dealt with all those people. I said that incident should never be mentioned again. I will just pretend it never happened."

"Never happened?"

Aunt Liu thought this was ridiculous and funny. She actually laughed until tears came out. "Of course you can pretend that nothing happened. I was the one who was bullied. I was the one who got that filthy disease. I was the one who woke up from nightmares every night, not you! Why can you pretend that nothing happened?"

He had harmed her and turned her into this half-human, half-ghost appearance, but now he seemed to be giving her alms, and was extremely kind in telling her that he did not mind everything she had been through.

What the hell is this logic?

If she had a knife in her hand, Aunt Liu would have wanted to stab it directly into Yao Shiliang's body.

The hatred in her eyes was too deep. Yao Shiliang took a step back, called the servants, and said in a hoarse voice: "Go and release He Yun."

After saying that, he looked at Aunt Liu again, "Over the years, the entanglement between you and me has long been unclear. I know you hate me for being so selfish to bring you to the capital..."

"No," Aunt Liu interrupted him, "You are wrong. I don't hate you for bringing me to the capital. I hate why I was blind enough to save you. I hate why I didn't take advantage of your misfortune and strangle you to death right there when I first saw you."

Aunt Liu truly felt what it meant to repay kindness with evil and what it meant to be ungrateful and cruel, and she paid an even deeper price for her foolish kindness.

Yao Shiliang's face turned even paler.

He knew that Aunt Liu would not believe his words so easily. His Adam's apple rolled, and he closed his red eyes. When he opened them again, he was full of helplessness.

"I swear by all the ancestors of the Yao family that as long as you give birth to the baby in your belly safely, I am willing to let you go, and we will live far away from each other from now on..."

He paused, and continued, "Even if we never meet again."

"If you break this oath, there will never be peace in the Yao Mansion."

After swearing by our ancestors, Aunt Liu finally responded.

She looked at Yao Shiliang seriously, as if trying to tell the truth from his expression.

She really didn't want the baby in her belly to be born. In her opinion, if this child was really born, it would be a shame for her every time she saw it.

There will be no love.

There was no doubt that the child was pitiful, so why did she allow him to exist?

But if Yao Shiliang was really willing to let her go, she would never see the child again. Out of sight, out of mind. Aunt Liu couldn't help but feel moved.

She sat up and said, "I will trust you this time. If you regret it after I give birth to the child, I will never stay with you again, even if it means death."

……

The marriage between His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Princess Lirang was settled, and Gu Qinghe finally met Princess Lirang again.

She was completely different from the Princess Lirang in her previous life. It was not known whether this one was good at disguising herself or really had no bad intentions. In short, she left a pretty good impression on Gu Qinghe.

Especially when she smiles and shows her two dimples.

If she hadn't been short on time, she would have found a way to have a conversation with Princess Lirang, make friends with her, and find out what had changed that led to the replacement of the princess to be married off.

The day before going to Chizhou, Yao Shiliang finally became anxious after not being able to find Yao Fangzhi, which allowed Shao Wei to find some flaws.

After leaving Yao Fangzhi to Huo Shibei, Shao Wei took Gu Qinghe and set off for Qi County, not far from the capital.

Qi County is a really rugged place.

Although it is not far from the capital, the terrain is very bad, with floods every three years and droughts every two years, so that the people here are very poor. Most of them have moved away from Qi County, and the officials sent here also complained bitterly.

But I have to say that this place is indeed a good place for Tibetans.

If Yao Shiliang hadn't delayed any further and was worried that something might happen to his son and expose his true identity, they might not have been able to find him even after the King of Wu quietly transferred his people.

The closer Gu Qinghe got to Qi County, the more he felt homesick.

She even didn't quite believe it. "Is my mother really here? Could it be that Yao Shiliang is playing a trick on us?"

Knowing that she was uneasy, Shao Wei answered each of her questions very seriously.

"No, the relationship between Yao Shiliang and King Wu is not so good that he needs to sacrifice his son's life to help King Wu."

He asked Gu Qinghe, "Do you remember the earrings you got from Aunt Liu before?"

"remember."

"Before the Chen family got into trouble, Doctor Lu should have visited Aunt Liu when he came to the capital. When the Chen family got into trouble, King Wu was worried that your mother would get the news and rush back to Liangtuo. Or maybe he was worried that your mother would be implicated by the Chen family, so he couldn't wait to take her away and imprison her."

Gu Qinghe immediately understood what he meant.

Gu Qinghe had also seen Aunt Liu's temper. Her illness would only get worse if it was not delayed, and her temper made it so that she didn't want male doctors to help her with the treatment. For Aunt Liu, Yao Shiliang should have asked King Wu to ask his mother to help Aunt Liu first, but the result was obvious. King Wu did not agree.

In other words, the friendship between the two men was not that strong. At least, Yao Shiliang would not use his son's life to help King Wu.

Shao Wei looked at the back of Gu Qinghe's head and pursed his lips. "Whether he is here or not, we will know when we go to see him. If he is really not here, when we get to Chizhou, I will accompany you to Lizhou and search the Wu Wang Mansion directly."

There is really nothing in this world that Shao Wei dare not do.

The emperor is far away and the worst that can happen is that the King of Wu can be kidnapped as well.

Gu Qinghe's nervousness finally dissipated a little.

Knowing that she was anxious, the two of them did not stop along the way and rushed directly to the gate of an inconspicuous courtyard according to the information they had received.

As soon as the two of them arrived, the people inside must have been on alert. The longer they delayed, the less chance they would have of finding Lu Zhiyao.

Shao Wei had a blank expression on his face. He kicked the gate open and rushed in with Gu Qinghe.

The yard was unusually quiet. Only an old woman holding a lamp came out of the house tremblingly. "What is this, what is this for?"

After looking at each other, Gu Qinghe quickly pushed Shao Wei and said, "Search separately."

"No," Shao Wei grabbed her wrist, "Follow me closely, the person must still be here."

He observed his surroundings as soon as he came in. Apart from the old lady, there were several pressing eyes hiding in the dark.
