"Marquis of Pingyang".
"I'll let it go if you tricked my elder sister into marrying into Pingyang City with your sweet words. But you shouldn't have used her life to get a promotion. I should settle that score with you!"
"Set off--"
On the way from the treasury to the residence of the Marquis of Pingyang.
Zhou Cheng had already extracted information about his eldest sister's current situation from the guards, and he was even more aware that in order to escape the clutches of the Marquis of Pingyang, his eldest sister had not hesitated to destroy the child in her womb.
The maid who discovered the Marquis of Pingyang's affair had her tongue cut out.
Now that Zhou Shiying has been captured and brought back by the Marquis of Pingyang, one can imagine the immense suffering she will endure.
“Bang!!”
"Poisonous woman!"
In a side room of a mansion in Yancheng, Zhou Shiying was brought back by the guards and thrown roughly onto the floor.
Only after the dust settled did Marquis Pingyang breathe a heavy sigh of relief. Panic and anger surged within him, and with bloodshot eyes, he raised his hand and slapped Zhou Shiying twice across the face.
Zhou Shiying felt as if she had gone deaf for two seconds.
A dense, tingling pain spread across my cheeks, and it felt like some liquid was leaking from the corner of my mouth.
Zhou Shiying wiped her fingertip and felt the oozing blood. She laughed mockingly, looked up at the furious Marquis of Pingyang, and said, "What? Why does your face look even worse than mine?"
"Are you afraid that I know your secret, or are you afraid of the weapon in Cheng'er's hands?"
"Look at your gloomy and twisted appearance."
"Yesterday you looked at me with such affection, how come you've become so vicious now? Why didn't you stop pretending? Are you scared, or do you think I'm no longer of any use to you?"
"Marquis Pingyang, Marquis Pingyang, it's been two years, two years, and I still haven't seen through you!"
The expression on the Marquis of Pingyang's face suddenly froze.
A weapon of mass destruction?
How could she know about the weapon?
What did she learn during this trip out of the manor?
Marquis Pingyang immediately looked at the leading guards. Upon learning that they had encountered Black Sheep on the way to capture Zhou Shiying alive, Marquis Pingyang's expression changed drastically, his eyes filled with unease and lingering fear, and his whole body tensed up.
"Are you sure it's Zhou Cheng's man?! Just one person? Where is the other one?"
The guard bowed his head and said, "The Marquis has escaped."
"He escaped? Hundreds of you couldn't stop him all by yourself!"
The guards were terrified: "My lord, the Zhou family not only has weapons of mass destruction, but also a dark, world-destroying weapon. Before we could even react, that weapon had killed everyone within a fifty-meter radius."
"The enemy, a single person, wiped out seventy-three of us."
"If there were a few more members of the Zhou family, I'm afraid my subordinates wouldn't have been able to bring the lady back alive!"
"You said... the Zhou family members suddenly appeared here. Does that mean Zhou Cheng is nearby? Could it be that he knows we're sending Madam to the capital?"
"Otherwise, why would the Zhou family........."
The soldier hadn't finished speaking the second half of his sentence.
"shut up!"
The Marquis of Pingyang's lips trembled uncontrollably. As if a nerve had been touched, he became irritable and uneasy, using shouts to mask his inner panic:
"Shut up!"
"What does Zhou Cheng know? He only arrived in Jiangling City a few days ago, how could he possibly know that I'm going to escort Zhou Shiying to the capital! How could he possibly know!"
