Mo Li was stunned again. Tang Miaoxin said that he could detoxify Ning Guzhou, and Ning Guzhou believed him. When did Ning Guzhou, who was as cold and arrogant as a lone wolf, become so easy to talk to?
Mo Li vaguely felt that Ning Guzhou's attitude toward Tang Miaoxin was a little different, but he couldn't figure out why.
Ning Guzhou's eyes glanced at the cup unconsciously, his brows twisted slightly, his expression cold.
When he saw that Mo Li had left and there was no one around, he secretly wiped the cup clean and put it in the cabinet.
After he put the cup away, he felt something was wrong. Why did he do it secretly?
His brows furrowed even more.
When Tang Miaoxin left the King of Qin's Courtyard, she felt much more relaxed.
As long as Ning Guzhou wants something from her, she has nothing to fear.
No matter how cold and domineering this man is, she still has a way to treat him!
When she returned to Zhuangzi while humming a little tune, Zhuangtou ran over anxiously: "Miaoxin, you are finally back!"
"The people in the Marquis have captured Qiao Niang. If you don't come back, they will do harm to Qiao Niang!"
Qiao Niang is the widow who raised Tang Miaoxin. She always takes good care of her and treats her as her own.
She had been afraid that the Marquis would be unfavorable to Qiao Niang, so she had already arranged for Qiao Niang so that no one from the Marquis could find her.
She hurriedly asked: "Qiao Niang has left Zhuangzi, how did they find Qiao Niang?"
Zhuangtou replied: "Qiao Niang came back to pick up something today, and they took her away!"
Tang Miaoxin was filled with anger. She turned around to go to the Hou Mansion to ask for someone, and saw Nanny Zhang coming over: "It'll be great if the second lady is back!"
"You haven't been in Zhuangzi for the past two days. Madam was very worried, so she asked me to bring a beautiful hand to you."
After she finished speaking, she asked the maid behind her to open a box. There was a hand in the box, and there was a long scar shaped like a moon bud on the back of that hand.
It was Qiao Niang's hand, and the scar was accidentally injured while making snacks for Tang Miaoxin.
Tang Miaoxin's eyes were cold: "What did you do to Qiao Niang?"
Aunt Zhang said proudly: "Second Miss is so disobedient and wants to marry King Qin. We can't do anything to you, so we can only do something to Qiao Niang."
"Madam said, Qiao Niang's hand is just a warning to you."
"If you run away again, it won't be Qiao Niang's hand that comes next time, but her head!"
Tang Miaoxin clenched her hands into fists: "How dare you hurt Qiao Niang!"
When Grandma Zhang saw her, she remembered how she had done something last time. She was a little scared, but she felt that with Qiao Niang in hand, she didn't dare to do it again.
Nanny Zhang said proudly: "We just hurt Qiao Niang, what can you do?"
"A lone star like you is not worthy of living in this world!"
"This time you can marry the King of Qin on behalf of the eldest lady. That is the blessing you gained in your previous life!"
"You don't cherish such a blessing and actually want to run away with one hundred thousand taels of silver, then you have to pay the price..."
Before she finished speaking, Tang Miaoxin had already stuffed something into Nanny Zhang's mouth.
Nanny Zhang said loudly: "What did you put in my mouth? I think you are just looking for death. Come here and take her..."
Before she could finish her words, she felt a severe pain in her throat and couldn't say a word.
Her eyes were full of panic, and she fell heavily to the ground before she could react.
In just a blink of an eye, her whole body turned into a pool of blood.
The maid who came with Grandma Zhang was so frightened that she looked at Tang Miaoxin in horror and fell to the ground.
Tang Miaoxin glanced at the maid coldly: "Go back and tell Mrs. Li that she chopped off Qiao Niang's hand, and I will kill Grandma Zhang."
"If she dares to hurt Qiao Niang even a hair, the fate of Aunt Zhang today will be the fate of Li tomorrow! You can get out now!"
The maid was so frightened that she ran away in tears. She was really frightened by Tang Miaoxin today!
Tang Miaoxin picked up Qiao Niang's hand with an angry look on her face. It seemed that the lesson she gave Li last time was not enough. They actually dared to touch Qiao Niang!
When the maid returned to the Marquis Mansion, she trembled and told her what had happened.
Mrs. Li was so angry that she slammed the table: "Damn it, I'm her mother, and she actually threatened me for an outsider!"
She was really going crazy. If she had known that Tang Miaoxin would be so troublesome when she grew up, she should have thrown Tangmiaoxin into a urine bucket and drowned!
Tang Jiangxian's focus is different from Li's: "You said that Tang Miaoxin just fed a medicine into Nanny Zhang's mouth, and Nanny Zhang turned into a pool of blood?"
The maid nodded, and Tangjiang Xian was thoughtful, waving his hand lightly, asking her to step back.
Mrs. Li was still cursing: "This is simply unreasonable!"
"The fact that she can marry you on your behalf is a blessing she gained from her previous life!"
"Otherwise, just because of her bad character, she would be too high to marry a villager!"
Tang Jiangxian's eyes narrowed slightly: "It seems that Tang Miaoxin also had a helper. He gave her poison to knock down the guard and poisoned Grandma Zhang."
"Her reaction today also proves that Qiao Niang has a high status in her heart. Now that Qiao Niang is in our hands, she should not run away from marriage again."
When she said this, her face was full of pride: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has long disliked the King of Qin, so he married Tang Miaoxin, just so that she can be our internal agent."
"Qiao Niang is in our hands, she dare not disobey."
She didn't know how important Qiao Niang was in Tang Miaoxin's heart before, and she only wanted to use Qiao Niang to force Tang Miaoxin to marry the King of Qin.
Now that she knows that Tang Miaoxin cares about Qiao Niang very much and has a powerful helper behind her, she can use Tang Miaoxin to do more things.
Li felt that what she said made sense, but she was still unhappy: "She threatened me and even killed Grandma Zhang. She didn't even care about me as a mother!"
"She is vulgar and mean, and she is not even worthy of carrying your shoes! If she hadn't been of some use, I would have given her away..."
"Okay!" Tang Jiangxian interrupted her: "Tang Miaoxin is married to the King of Qin and can still work for the prince, so she is still valuable."
"Not to mention that King Qin was violent, liked to torture and kill people, and wore a mask every day. It is said that he was extremely ugly."
"The person that King Qin was going to marry was me. He will definitely be very angry when he finds out that the person who marries him is Tang Miaoxin."
"No matter how arrogant Tang Miaoxin is now, she is basically a dead person even after she got married and was mistreated by the King of Qin. Why should my mother be angry with her?"
Tangjiangxian never regarded Tang Miaoxin as her sister. In her heart, Tang Miaoxin was an unpopular evil star.
If Emperor Chengming hadn't arranged for her to marry King Qin, she would never have remembered that there was such a person in the Marquis.
Tang Miaoxin can make her remember that she should feel honored to be able to marry on her behalf.
She is the one who wants to be the crown princess, and she will have to look after her mother in the future. A clown like Tang Miaoxin is not worth her trouble at all!
