Chapter 13 Who messed with that little girl again?
The masked man in black, holding a dagger, stuck to Liu Yueniang's neck and whispered something in her ear.

Liu Yueniang's beautiful eyes were wide open, and anger, resentment, unwillingness and other emotions mixed together, infuriating people and giving rise to a desire to fight to the death.

But soon, as his eyes fell on the young man, all emotions finally turned into helplessness and compromise.

Her eyes turned red and tears fell.

"Are you serious..."

Liu Yueniang had only said half of her words when Song Lan, who was squatting on a tree watching the excitement, heard the sound of another sword clashing approaching. A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and a wisp of resentment quietly floated to Liu Yueniang's side.

"Auntie!"

The boy's heart-wrenching roar overlapped with the sound of another group of people kicking the door open.

The masked man in black, who was holding Liu Yue Niang hostage with a dagger and negotiating terms with her, was stunned for a long time when he saw the dagger stained with blood, which was dripping with blood.

How did he kill someone?
The masked man in black was confused at this time.

"Who are you? How dare you assassinate the family of an imperial official?"

Hearing the stern rebuke from the Zhang family guards, the masked man in black knew that today's matter had failed.

At this moment, he had no time to think about how the knife he was holding tightly cut the man's neck. He quickly shouted "retreat" and fled with the people who came with him.

Zhang Bai, who came to pick up the people in person, felt a little relieved when he saw Liu Yue Niang lying in a pool of blood, lifeless.

The death of this woman saved us a lot of trouble.

Death has no evidence.

Then the identity of the young man in front of them is up to them to decide.

"Second Young Master."

Zhang Bai stepped forward respectfully and explained his purpose to the young man.

"...You said I was your mistress's child? My mother exchanged her own son for the real second young master of the Zhang family?"

Song Lan in the dark almost laughed out loud.

The Zhang family really has the advantage of getting up early.

Just like in the previous life.

Zhang Bai looked humble, but his tone couldn't help but be superior: "Yes, that's right, please come back with me, Second Young Master. When the right opportunity comes, the master will make the decision and let you return to your ancestral home."

“The kind that goes into the family tree.”

Who cares?
The young man's eyes were red. After he moved his gaze away from Liu Yue Niang lying in a pool of blood, all his sadness turned into anger.

"So you killed my mother?"

"You want to die without any evidence, huh?"

"She's dead, and you're still throwing dirty water on her!"

Song Lan raised his eyebrows and glanced at Liu Yueniang's body. He was a little surprised that the young man did not go back with them directly, but argued loudly for the dead person's posthumous reputation.

Could it be that the beasts who are afraid of death, bully the weak and fear the strong, and only dare to sharpen their knives and wield them against the weak, also have feelings when they are young?
What fun.

Yan Jun, who was still thinking about what Zhao Tan said and wondering whether Song Lan was attracted to him, suddenly changed his expression. He looked up and was shocked to see the resentment that enveloped the entire city in the blink of an eye.

damned!
Who has provoked this young lady again?
He didn't bother to worry about it and hurried to find the source of the resentment.

I'm afraid that if I'm a little slower, this place will be burned to ashes by the karmic fire again.

Zhang Bai obviously did not expect that the young man would be interested in tracing his ancestors and being included in the family tree.

A son of a concubine now has the opportunity to obtain the legitimate status and become the legitimate young master of the Zhang family, but he is not grateful and cries bitterly?
It’s really unbelievable!

"Second Young Master!"

"Be careful!"

Zhang Baiwei lowered his voice a little: "Your mother is the eldest lady of the Zhang family!"

"The Zhang family is not an outlaw, and they will not take human lives lightly!"

He looked at Liu Yueniang with disdain, not disguising his disgust. "This slut is so selfish that she exchanged you for her own son and deprived you of your original rich and noble life."

"Now my son has violated the law. Master, out of pity for her, has no intention of pursuing my fault any further."

Zhang Bai's gaze met the strong hatred in the boy's eyes, and his voice paused slightly.

"As soon as the master found out the truth, he sent me here overnight to take the second young master back home."

He glanced at Liu Yue Niang and said, "I thought that if the Second Young Master really couldn't give up the relationship he had with this lowly maid, it's not impossible to find a quiet place in the mansion to take care of her for the rest of her life."

"But no one could have imagined that it would be such a coincidence that a blind thief would appear here today and kill her by mistake."

Thief?

coincidence?

Manslaughter?

The boy sneered: "Do you think I will believe it?"

"If the Second Young Master doesn't believe it, he can go and find out the truth himself."

Zhang Bai lost his patience: "The Zhang family is upright, so they are not afraid of anyone investigating!"

"Even if it is a judge in the government office, he must ensure that the evidence is complete."

"Since Second Young Master doesn't believe me, just go ahead and check it out!"

The young man was stunned and began to hesitate.

The other party was so confident that he was not sure whether the two groups were playing a double game.

"I will naturally find out..."

The young man gritted his teeth and squeezed out a voice, but was interrupted by Zhang Bai's sneer: "But if you want to find out the truth, you must have the ability to do it, right?"

"I heard that the second young master is very talented in writing and has the talent to be the top scholar."

"But every time before the exam, something unexpected would happen, and I would regretfully miss it."

Zhang Bai laughed twice, as if he was mocking people who overestimated their own abilities.

"The second young master couldn't even grasp the imperial examination, the only way for him to stand out, and was repeatedly suppressed."

"Why do you think you can find out the truth?"

"When a gnat tries to shake a tree, it overestimates its own capabilities."

"Second Young Master is well-read, so he should understand that a wise bird chooses a tree to roost in, and takes advantage of the situation to rise, right?"

The young man clenched his fists and glared at his opponent with hatred.

Zhang Bai didn't care. There was a scornful smile on his face, as if he was sure that no one could resist the temptation of power and status.

Especially young people like these, who are born in the mud.

With the opportunity to soar into the sky, why would you give it up just because of so-called "family affection"?
Zhang Bai glanced at Liu Yueniang with disgust.

It is even more not worth giving up a bright future for a poor, dependent mother from another family.

The young man keenly caught the person's gaze, and his hatred grew even stronger. He clenched his fist tightly, as if he would hit the person's nose at any time.

A fight to the death!
Suddenly, there was a gust of wind blowing past his ear, cool and chilly, carrying a cool voice, whispering in his ear.

The boy looked around blankly and found that other people seemed not to hear the sound.

Is it——a god?

He subconsciously looked up at the sky, joy overflowing from his eyes.

Still naively hoping that God will open his eyes.

"I promise you."

The young man looked at Zhang Bai: "But I have a request——"
