"Even for Brother Jin, you have to go."
Madam Yang interrupted her, her eyes stern: "Don't forget who you are! If your identity is exposed one day, our Yang family will die, and Jin Ge'er will also be killed by you."
Wei's body stiffened.
"aunt……"
"Don't call me aunt, I'm no longer your aunt."
"Wei, you should know very well that Tiejiang never agreed to marry you as his second wife. It was my own old age that made me foolish and you tricked me into being included in our Yang family tree and becoming the wife of the family, giving you the opportunity to be completely tied to our Yang family."
Wei wanted to explain.
But she was powerless to defend herself.
Because it was indeed the case. She had been taking advantage of Old Madam Yang from the very beginning and was willing to be tied to the Yang family at any cost. She even designed to give birth to Yang Huaijin for this purpose.
But she truly loves Yang Tiejiang.
From the day he saved her, he entered her heart and was the only light in her dirty memories.
She loves him.
Want to get him.
She can do whatever it takes to achieve this.
But Yang Tiejiang's heart and eyes were filled with Qi Yue. Even if she died, he could not see anyone else. She had made so many efforts and even gave birth to a son for him, but there was still no trace of her in his eyes, not even a little bit.
She will become the second wife of the Yang family.
It was she who coaxed Old Madam Yang into making the decision to have her included in the family tree, and it was also she who made Old Madam Yang make a fuss so much that Yang Tiejiang tolerated the matter, but he never set foot in her yard.
Not to mention treating her as his wife.
Later, he was stationed in Yongcheng to guard the border. She and he could not sleep in the same bed, let alone see each other for several years. Even if they met, he ignored her directly, just like he did just now.
Wei was unwilling to give in.
Very unwilling.
But what's the use even if she is unwilling?
She had already lost.
No, she had never been qualified to win or lose, because she had never caught his eye.
She doesn't even have the qualifications!!
That's ridiculous.
Wei's entire body felt like a deflated balloon, she weakly sat back in her seat, tears streaming down her face uncontrollably. "Why! Why would he do this to me? I'm not asking for his love anymore, I just want to be by his side. Why is he so cruel?"
In the past, Old Madam Yang would have felt distressed.
But now, seeing Wei's appearance, there was a clear flash of displeasure in his eyes: "Why are you crying? Who are you crying for?"
"On such a good day, if you dare to bring bad luck to our Yang family, I will beat you to death." A crutch hit Wei's arm directly.
Wei was hurt by the beating.
The tears stopped, and she looked at Madam Yang in surprise; "Auntie... Madam, how could you hit me?"
"Why not!"
Old Madam Yang had taken out a cane from her hand at some point. With a cold expression, she tapped the carriage board with it, making a thumping sound. "As a daughter-in-law, you dare to contradict your mother-in-law? Not only will I beat you, I'll even divorce you."
stop?
Wei's eyes widened in shock.
"Okay, sit still and we'll set off soon." After saying this, Mrs. Yang closed her eyes, as if waiting for something.
Don’t wait until one stick of incense has passed.
A horse arrived at the gate of the Marquis' Mansion, and then a voice announcing good news was heard, "Old Madam, news just came out that the Third Young Master was publicly selected by the Emperor as the top scholar in the imperial court..."
When Wei heard this, he was so surprised that he wanted to jump up.
'ah'
Wei covered his beaten arm in pain.
"What's the rush?"
Madam Yang glared at Wei.
Then she asked the people outside and confirmed that Yang Huaijin had really won the first place in the palace examination. Only then did she finally smile with relief: "Good, my grandson is really promising!"
"Okay, let's go."
Walk?
"Old lady..."
Wei was anxious and wanted to say something, but when he saw Wei raising the crutch in his hand again, he immediately fell silent.
"You're such an eyesore. Just knowing your son has made a difference is enough. Why do you still want to stay and be a burden?"
Wei's eyes suddenly turned red.
Because she suddenly remembered what Yang Huaijin had said to her before, asking her to leave the capital, and she finally understood what he meant.
This is... I don't want her to be an eyesore in the capital!!!
Wei was heartbroken.
Phew!
Just less than ten miles out of the city, the carriage team of Aunt Yang in front suddenly stopped. After asking, we learned that the wheels of the two carriages in front suddenly broke. If the wheels were not replaced, they would definitely not be able to move forward.
After hearing this, Madam Yang ordered, "Don't wait for them, otherwise they won't be able to reach the inn before dark."
Old Madam Yang ordered a carriage to pass by Aunt Yang's convoy and leave.
Even Aunt Yang couldn't stop it.
Wei was in a low mood, so she didn't care about this incident. By the time she realized something was wrong, the carriage was already surrounded...
"mother?"
When Wei saw that it was Madam Wei who led the people to surround the carriage, she couldn't help but look surprised: "You were released?"
Wei knew that Madam Wei was captured by Yang Zhao.
Madam Wei looked at her with complicated eyes, then knelt on one knee, "Princess, it's time for you to resume your status."
Wei was stunned.
Then his expression changed and he turned to look at Old Madam Yang behind him.
Madam Yang snorted coldly, but there was no surprise on her face. She looked at Madam Wei who was kneeling on the ground: "Don't forget what you promised me. You just need to lock these people up, but you can't kill them. When the big thing is accomplished in the future, you will release them." She was referring to Nanny Sun and the guards escorting her.
Madam Wei nodded: "Don't worry, they will be fine."
Madam Yang then raised her chin and said, "Well, then take me to meet your real master. After all, if you want me to cooperate with you, you have to show me your sincerity. Don't worry, all I want is a smooth career for my son and grandson. As for who sits in that position, it doesn't matter to me."
The real master?
Wei looked bewildered, obviously confused by what she saw.
Isn't she their master?
Soon, Wei also saw the real "master" that Madam Yang had mentioned, and Wei's pupils suddenly contracted.
…
Half a month later.
Yang Zhao arrived at the border gate of Qi State.
At this time, she was dressed like a woman from Qi State. Since she could not disguise her face, she could only wrap it with a plain cloth. This kind of dress was very common in the border city. Next to her was a tall man pulling a donkey cart.
The man has an ordinary appearance.
He has a handsome dark skin and a tuft of beard on his chin.
When they reached the city gate, the man bowed slightly and skillfully handed over a badge representing his identity and a merchant pass: "Sir, this is my identity badge and merchant pass."
The gatekeeper glanced at the badge and pass the man handed him, then looked up at the man, and finally his gaze fell on Yang Zhao, who had her face covered: "Where is her ID card?"
