There's no need to gamble with your life, right?

But if you marry her, will she be a good wife and mother, or will she tear down the house and run away for no reason? It’s hard to say!

Just when Jiang Ying was about to throw in the towel, Yan Zhuo, having finished his pretense, slowly began, "...There's a Gu curse that originated in the Miao region. The person who casts the curse must raise the Gu within their body and offer a blood sacrifice. Not only will the cursed person's bad luck come true, but all their good fortune will also be transferred to the bloodline of the person who sacrificed the Gu."

"This prince suspects that someone secretly led Madam Jiang to cast such a curse on the Jiang family."

"The person behind this is secretive and his identity is unknown. Even I haven't found any clues. I only heard some of them from the fragments of conversation between Madam Jiang and Second Uncle Jiang when Madam Jiang returned to Xinghua Village."

"I didn't want to alert the enemy, but Lian also sent people and captured Madam Jiang in a swift and decisive manner."

"You don't know, when that old woman was sent to the Ministry of Justice, she was bloodthirsty and crazy. She secretly used a hidden piece of porcelain to scratch her arm to bleed, and kept shouting 'blood debt must be paid with blood'."

"That look...everyone who has seen it says it gives them the chills."

When Jiang Ying heard these words, his heart was beating wildly, his ears were buzzing, and his eyes were fixed on Yan Zhuo's mouth.

He lied! He must have lied, right?

There is no such weird curse in the world!

However, Yan Zhuo's heavy gaze, which he did not evade at all, made the light of hope in Jiang Ying's heart gradually dim, and he soon became panicked.

She thought of Xiao Yanzhi's words about the unimaginable and tragic experiences of everyone in the Jiang family...

Yan Zhuo didn't give Jiang Ying time to digest what he said, and slowly continued, "When you were at Xiangguo Temple, you diagnosed Lian with poisoning. Was I right?"

"It's a pity that your good intentions have made things complicated."

"After Lian came back, she quickly checked everyone around her and finally found a reasonable suspect, Doctor Hu, who had prepared the pills for her."

"However, when the clues reached him, they took a turn that was difficult for even the Lian family."

"It turns out that Doctor Hu was colluding with a mysterious eunuch to give Lian the drug."

"Ying'er, you're very smart. Guess who this eunuch is, hiding his true identity? Is he personally hostile to the Lian family, or is he targeting the entire Jiang Guogong Mansion?"

"Who was it that cruelly used the Gu curse on the Jiang family?"

"With so many questions, dangers, calculations, and unscrupulous means, how will you deal with it when you become the legitimate daughter of the Duke's Mansion? Will you turn a blind eye, or fight to the end?"

"So, Ying'er, whether it's for yourself, your child, or the entire Jiang Guo Mansion, marrying me is the best choice. After all, the fact that I was able to find out all this proves my ability and power."

"Whether you admit it or not."

"Your grandmother has been secretly investigating for a long time, but up to now, she still knows part of the truth."

"As for me, my success rate is at least 80%, if not 100%."

"So, you still refuse to marry me? Do you not care about the life and death of your grandmother, brother, and father?"
