Chapter 1025: Uncle and Sister-in-law Wen’s original wife was murdered (End)

Yue Shichu never thought that he would see someone from the Yong'an Earl's Mansion again. Zou Hongxin, who had "died of illness" early in the original world's plot, is still alive and well today. He is even in better health and can go out.

Yue Shichu understood in his heart, there was no such thing as death from a serious illness, it was just that after Zou Hongyi killed the original owner to silence her, he decided to go all the way and killed his own brother as well, so that the two of them could live together as a whore.

Unexpectedly, the original male protagonist was even more cruel than he imagined. Not only did he kill his wife, he even dared to kill his brother. To be honest, Zou Hongxin should be grateful that he took the initiative to kill those two people as soon as he crossed over, otherwise he would have been the one who died.

"Mr. Zou, what do you want to talk to me about?" Although they were both victims accompanied by their partners, Yue Shichu did not have any extra sympathy or pity for Zou Hongxin. After all, besides being a victim, he was also Zou Hongyi's biological elder brother.

"Ms. Yue, this is the engagement letter you received when you and Zou Hongyi were engaged. You left in a hurry and didn't take it with you. I thought I should return it to you." Zou Hongxin said gently with a pale face, handing a colorless engagement letter to Yue Shichu.

Yue Shichu took it and saw that it really had her birth date and eight characters written on it. People in this era valued these things. If her birth certificate fell into the hands of others, it would be really inappropriate. So she nodded to Zou Hongxin and said, "Thank you."

"Ms. Yue, our Zou family is planning to return to our hometown, and we probably won't return to the capital again in this lifetime." Zou Hongxin said indifferently.

Yue Shichu was a little surprised when he heard this, but he quickly understood. The reputation of the Zou family had been ruined by Zou Hongyi and Murong Liu. They had become a laughing stock in the capital. Anyone could look down on the Yong'an Marquis' Mansion, and it would take decades for the world to forget this shame. Instead of staying in the capital and suffering, it would be better to return to his hometown directly, where he could have some peace and quiet.

"This is a wise choice. I wish you all a safe journey." Although Yue Shichu neither liked nor hated Zou Hongxin, he had no grudge against her, so he casually gave her a blessing.

"Thank you." This time it was Zou Hongxin's turn to thank him. He slowly turned around and said, "Then I will leave. I wish Miss Yue all the best in the future."

Yue Shichu was about to say something polite when Zou Hongxin suddenly said in an almost inaudible voice, "Actually, I know that those two people did not commit suicide for love."

Yue Shichu's eyes suddenly turned cold, and the words "murder to silence the witness" immediately came to her mind, but her murderous intent soon disappeared because she realized that Zou Hongxin would never tell this to others. If he wanted to say it, he would have said it long ago. Why would he come to tell her this today?

Obviously he didn't want to expose himself... When Yue Shichu thought of this, he suspected that Zou Hongxin might have known for a long time that his wife and his brother had an affair, but he was sick and weak at the time and had no energy to care, so he could only play deaf and dumb and pretend not to know.

But he didn't expect that things would turn out like that in the end. The two of them actually "committed suicide for love", and their lesbian love became known to the world, and the Yong'an Earl's Mansion became a laughing stock.

"Being ignorant is what smart people do. What do you think, Mr. Zou?" Yue Shichu asked him softly.

"Of course." Zou Hongxin said as he slowly walked away. His thin body seemed like it would break if bent, but his back was exceptionally straight, like a tall and unyielding green bamboo.

Yue Shichu suddenly felt sorry for him. If his health was not so poor, if he had not married Murong Liu for the sake of good fortune, if he did not have a younger brother named Zou Hongyi, then he might really be able to lead the Yong'an Earl's Mansion back to its peak. However, this is impossible now.

But this had nothing to do with Yue Shichu. She got bored of playing in the capital, so she went to the surrounding cities with her guards and maids. Sometimes she would be gone for ten days or half a month. In fact, if Yue Chonglou had not forbade her, she could have been away for half a year or a year without coming back.

Yue Chonglou was afraid that she would encounter danger outside, and was also afraid that she would have too much fun and let herself go and never go home. He was always worried, and wrote letters to Yue Shichu, urging her this and that, and was as worried and concerned as an old nanny.

Because of Xiao Changle, Zhai Wanting became very familiar with Yue Shichu. He always knew that Yue Shichu was a girl, but he never exposed her. Later, Yue Shichu herself was too lazy to hide it anymore and directly treated him as her own person, not even trying to hide it in front of him.

Zhai Wanting had mixed feelings about this. He didn't know whether Yue Shichu regarded him as a brother or simply didn't care how he viewed her. Otherwise, why would she expose all her good and bad aspects in front of him?

As for the heroine Ye Yonglan who traveled through time, she really started to play both sides among several high-quality men. No one knew how she handled it, but she was able to get along well among several princes who were fighting each other to the death. She didn't worry at all that her good relationship with one prince would offend another prince. And no one thought her actions were inappropriate. At most, some girls who had feelings for those high-quality men would be jealous of Ye Yonglan and do some cheap tricks to deal with her. Of course, any conspiracy against Ye Yonglan would never succeed. Instead, it would expose the true face of those vicious female supporting characters and promote her relationship with those men.

Ye Yonglan looked left and right and was overwhelmed. She didn't know which man to choose as her true love. After all, this man was handsome, that man had a good temper, another man accommodated her in every way, and another man was willing to give his life for her... Oh, it was too difficult to choose. Why couldn't there be an option to choose all of them?

Ye Yonglan deeply hated herself for being born at the wrong time. If she had traveled through time a dozen years earlier, she would have been able to marry all these high-quality men. Why was she in such a dilemma now?

She finally chose the second prince who was named the crown prince. This is not surprising. After all, as a time-traveling heroine, isn't it natural for her to become the queen?

I don't know why, but her aura as the protagonist became weaker and weaker after she became the Crown Princess. At the beginning, she and the Crown Prince were in harmony, and the Crown Prince promised her to be together for the rest of his life. But after she became pregnant, the oath was no longer valid, and the Crown Prince had other women. Of course, this was all kept secret from Ye Yonglan.

But it couldn't be kept secret for too long. Ye Yonglan found out after she gave birth to the child. She was devastated and had a quarrel with the prince. It was just that with a third person inserted between husband and wife, their marriage could no longer be perfect. Ye Yonglan and the prince became a pair of resentful lovers. When the prince ascended the throne, a new round of palace fighting began. However, this time, Ye Yonglan, who lost the aura of the protagonist, was far from being a match for those women who were well versed in the art of palace fighting.

Yue Shichu didn't care about the heroine's wonderful life. Her own life was very wonderful. She traveled all over the world and even went out to sea. She played until she was in her twenties. Finally, the Yue family couldn't stand it anymore and urged her to get married and settle down. Yue Shichu had no choice but to find the most suitable man to be with her, oh, it was Zhai Wanting.
