In the previous life, after the Xu family rose to power in the Shen family, they also sent their daughter to the Shen family. Under the pretext of recuperating for Shen Li, the Xu Shuer they sent over... was extremely charming and lovely.
What a pity...
That afternoon, Xu Shuer came in front of Yang Zhao.
"Meet my cousin's wife."
Yang Zhao looked at Xu Shu'er, who was about fifteen or sixteen years old, and waved to her with a smile: "Come to your cousin's wife."
Xu Shuer walked forward generously.
The light pink silk skirt and the stand-up collar fur shawl coat make the already very charming Xu Shuer look even more delicate and graceful, making people feel pity for her when they see her.
"What a beautiful girl!"
Xu Shuer said modestly: "My cousin is too kind. I am ashamed to be inferior to her."
Yang Zhao looked at her so 'modest' and couldn't help but smile, "Actually... my cousin's wife has already asked someone to find out everything about Shu'er's situation."
Xu Shu'er was stunned for a moment, then laughed at herself and said, "Please forgive me for laughing at you, cousin. I'm just a concubine's daughter in the Xu family. I just came back from the countryside a few days ago. My grandmother told my cousin that I went to the palace to learn medicine from a female doctor. It was all fake. She wanted me to come to the Shen family to seduce my cousin."
Yang Zhao smiled.
"Shu'er is quite frank."
Xu Shuer smiled bitterly: "Cousin-in-law will definitely investigate, and these things will be revealed once they are investigated. But don't worry, cousin-in-law, Shuer is self-aware and will never have any other thoughts about cousin-in-law, so you can rest assured!"
"What if I want you to have some other thoughts?" Yang Zhao said with a smile.
Xu Shu'er was slightly stunned: "What does cousin-in-law mean?"
Yang Zhao opened the box that had been prepared on the side.
When Xu Shuer saw clearly what was in the box, her pupils suddenly shrank.
"Cousin, what are you doing..."
"Let's make a deal!"
Yang Zhao curled her lips and lightly brushed her fingers over a jade token in the box. The cracks on it seemed to be stained with old blood. She stared at Xu Shu'er and smiled, "You came to the Xu family as Xu Shu'er, simply to find out the truth about the tragic case that wiped out the family. You want the Xu family to pay the price. I can help you."
Xu Shu'er's nails clenched tightly, digging deep into her palms. She suppressed the urge to kill and silence the witness. "Cousin, I don't understand what you are saying!"
Yang Zhao raised the corners of his lips and looked at her, then softly uttered three words: "King of Yujiang."
A murderous look flashed in Xu Shu'er's eyes, and a cold knife was pressed against Yang Zhao's neck: "What do you know?"
Yang Zhao remained calm and said, "I know everything I should know, and I don't know what I shouldn't know. Shu'er wants to know the truth about the Xu family, and I... want to destroy the Shen family."
"You want to destroy the Shen family?"
Xu Shu'er obviously didn't believe it: "Everyone knows that Madam Shen married into the Shen family for love and supported the Shen family for six years regardless of her reputation. You said you want to destroy the Shen family? Are you kidding me, cousin?"
Yang Zhao looked at her and smiled: "Who says it's not true? I worked hard for six years, but in return I was treated cruelly and betrayed by my husband. How can I not be cruel!"
"What's the meaning?"
"Shu'er should know that I have an adopted son, right?"
"I've heard of it."
There was quite a stir when the adoption took place.
"He is actually...Shen Li's biological son."
What?
Xu Shuer looked surprised.
Yang Zhao closed the box in his hand and gently pushed it in front of Xu Shuer. He said calmly, "When the Shen family was in trouble, the Shen family came to my house with a marriage certificate and asked for my hand in marriage. Chen Li even promised me in public that we would be together for the rest of our lives."
