Ding was actually feeling a little sad and aggrieved. After all, she and her great-grandfather had been in love for decades, but this man was so heartless.
However, in the past few days, the Ding family has adjusted themselves.
Ding is very aware of her current situation.
She is already dead and cannot go back to the Bai family. The only one she can rely on is her great-grandfather Wen.
Therefore, she had no choice but to work hard to please Zeng Zuwen and keep him firmly in her hands. By then, what she would get from Zeng Zuwen might not be worse than being Mrs. Bai.
Great-grandfather Wen hugged Ding tightly.
"Xiao Lian, how could I forget you? It's just that this matter is of great importance, so I have to make good arrangements to ensure that nothing goes wrong. I will save you no matter what." Great-grandfather Wen said.
Both of them tacitly did not mention the fact that Ding wrote a letter to threaten their great-grandfather Wen.
Ding naturally wouldn't bring up something that is not relevant.
Great-grandfather Wen Ze naturally would not allow such a thing that might threaten him to exist, and he had to get to the bottom of it, but he was now blinded by lust, so he thought there was no need to rush and he would ask later.
Both of them looked very affectionate with each other.
"Then why did you come to see me so late?"
"It's that tigress who keeps staring at me every day."
"Zeng Lang, when can we be together forever?"
Zeng Zuwen's eyes flashed and he got it over with with a few words.
The two of them had a good and affectionate time.
Suddenly, the gate of the yard outside was pushed open, a noisy sound of footsteps was heard, and the next moment, the door of the room was smashed!
The sound of banging on the door scared Zeng Zuwen so much that he almost fell off the bed.
He quickly got up and put on his clothes. After a while, when Zeng Zuwen was putting on his clothes, the door was completely kicked open.
When Zeng Zuwen saw who was outside the door, he was so scared that he felt dizzy and almost fell down.
It was Mrs. Tao who brought a group of servants and maids.
How come she is here?
It’s over!
Looking at the scene in front of her, Mrs. Tao was so angry that her face turned pale and her expression was extremely ugly.
Tao pointed at Great-Zu Wen: "Great-Zu Wen, you!"
"Madam, please listen to my explanation!" Zeng Zuwen said hurriedly.
"Do you have anything else to explain?" Tao asked.
They were caught in bed!
She only said that she returned to the princess's mansion today, but suddenly received news that her great-grandfather Wen had gone to a place secretly and was suspected of having a secret meeting with someone.
Great-grandfather Wen treated her very well and never took a concubine. Her words were always followed. Her sisters all said she had found a good man. So, when Tao heard the news, she didn't believe it.
However, even though I didn’t believe it, I still wanted to come and see for myself. Who knew that when I came, it turned out to be true!
Zeng Zuwen actually dared to betray her!
How dare he?!
Tao couldn't believe it, but the truth was right in front of her, and she couldn't help but believe it!
Tao was so angry that she walked up to her great-grandfather Wen and slapped him hard!
"Zang Zuwen, if it weren't for me, would you be able to sit in the position you are today? This is how you repay me?!"
"Madam, listen to me. It's not what you see. I only have you in my heart... It was her, she seduced me!" Zeng Zuwen pointed to the bed and said hurriedly.
Ding curled up on the bed, covering herself with a quilt, her face pale.
She secretly cursed Tao as a fat pig and looked down on her, but it could not change the fact that she was the eldest princess's adopted daughter and had the power of life and death over her!
Ding was very afraid of Tao and wished she could hide in a hole.
Tao walked over, grabbed Ding's hair, pulled her off the bed, and kicked her hard twice.
Ding was kicked and screamed: "Don't hit me! It wasn't me! I didn't seduce him! He forced me!"
"Bitch, it was you who seduced me!" When Zeng Zuwen heard her say this, he came over and slapped Ding.
Then, he knelt in front of Mrs. Tao and said, "Madam, please listen to me. I was just confused for a moment. Please give me another chance!"
"It's all because of this bitch. I was fooled by her!"
"Madam, as long as you give me a chance, I'm willing to do anything!"
Zeng Zuwen kept begging.
Tao's eyes were gloomy: "You can do anything I ask you to do?"
Zeng Zuwen seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw: "I can do anything, ma'am, as long as you say it!"
"Bring the dagger." Tao said.
Soon a servant brought a dagger, and Tao took it and threw it in front of her great-grandfather Wen.
"Scratch her face." Tao said.
Great-grandfather Wen picked up the dagger and walked up to Ding without any hesitation.
Ding's face was filled with horror: "Don't..."
She tried to run away but was caught by two servants.
Ding stared at the dagger, filled with fear: "Zeng Lang, don't..."
Ding begged.
The dagger in Zeng Zuwen's hand slashed directly towards Ding's face.
"Ah!" Ding screamed in pain.
Great-grandfather Wen cut down the wound with his knife, and soon, Mrs. Ding's face was completely disfigured.
In fear and pain, Mrs. Ding told all the past events with her great-grandfather Wen.
"Zeng Zuwen and I are from the same hometown. We've been in love for a long time. He said he would marry me if I passed the imperial examination. I came to the capital with him!"
"He married you solely because you could help him in his career!"
"Shut up!" Zeng Zuwen said quickly, trying to cover her mouth.
"Let her speak." Tao said.
The next moment, Zeng Zuwen was pulled away.
"We have been together for so many years and have never been apart!"
"You know what he said you were? He said you were a tigress! A fat, dead pig!"
Ding told everything.
Tao's face looked extremely ugly.
After Ding's face was scratched, Tao did not let her go, but beat her half to death.
Great-grandfather Wen looked at the terrifying appearance of Mrs. Ding and was so frightened that he trembled all over and kowtowed to Mrs. Tao continuously.
However, Tao did not let him go. She gave her great-grandfather Wen a letter of divorce and had his servants beat him severely.
Then he ordered people to strip the couple naked and throw them onto the street.
This incident quickly spread in the capital, and my great-grandfather Wen suddenly fell from the high-ranking Minister of Justice to a laughing stock.
"The one with the parallel hair of great-grandfather Wen looks like Ding Xiaolian?"
"When they caught the adultery earlier, I ran to watch the fun. That person was Ding Xiaolian."
"Didn't Ding Xiaolian die? Why is she still alive?"
"Zang Zuwen was originally the Minister of Justice. Could it be that Ding Xiaolian is not dead at all, but was saved by Zeng Zuwen?"
Soon, the half-dead Zeng Zuwen and Ding Xiaolian were taken away by people from the Ministry of Justice.
…
Bai Mansion.
Mr. Bai has locked himself in his room for several days and nights. The news he received only a few days ago was that Ding Xiaolian was about to be executed.
He was upset about it and refused to eat or drink.
Of course, he didn't know that Ding Xiaolian and Zeng Zuwen were caught in an affair.
With a creak, the door was pushed open.
A man walked in, it was Bai Muyang.
Mr. Bai glanced at Bai Muyang, his expression becoming even uglier: "What are you doing here?"
"Hunger strike? You are really crazy about Ding Xiaolian." Bai Muyang said with a smile.
Mr. Bai didn't say anything, his eyes were red and he felt very sad.
"I see that you are infatuated with her, so I want to take you to meet Ding Xiaolian." Bai Muyang said.
Mr. Bai's eyes lit up, full of anticipation: "Do you have a way for me to see her?"
