Looking at her daughter's beautiful face, but seeing that she was suffering pain that ordinary people could not bear, Xie Xiangyu naturally felt more pity for her daughter.

?

But she also knew that what her daughter told her must not be known to a third person.

?

"Liu Zheng, mother knows the seriousness of this matter. Don't worry, this matter is between you and me, and no third person will know about it!"

?

Xie Liuzheng naturally believed Xie Xiangyu's assurance.

?

However, Xie Xiangyu still asked about the identity of the noble lady from the capital, "Liu Zheng, that noble lady from the capital..."

?

Then she seemed to remember something. Liu Zheng was reluctant to talk about her past life before, but because of her relationship with Pingxi Hou, she changed her mind.

?

The next second, a bold idea came to Xie Xiangyu's mind.

?

"Liu Zheng, that noble lady from the capital you mentioned, could it be the daughter of Marquis Pingxi—Zhou Pan'er!"

?

Hearing this, Xie Liuzheng was a little surprised. She herself didn't even know the name of the marquis's daughter, but her mother told her.

?

Seeing this, Xie Liuzheng no longer denied it and nodded slightly.

?

"Yes, it is indeed the daughter of the Marquis of Pingxi! According to my investigation, the fire that burned down our storehouse a few days ago was also done by her! In addition, Qin Guangjin and his son were also saved by this daughter of the Marquis for some reason, and she also took out money to sponsor Qin Shou to continue his studies."

?

Hearing this, Xie Xiangyu angrily slapped the stone table.

?

"This daughter of a marquis, can't find a man in the capital? She's so shameless that she's sticking with Qin Shou? I don't know how Zhou Zheng taught his daughter. She's a noble lady in the capital! How shameless!"

?

I think Liu Zheng's miserable life in her previous life must have been caused by the daughter of a marquis.

?

When she thought of this, Xie Xiangyu became so angry that she even took her anger out on Pingxi Hou.

?

Xie Liuzheng didn't know whether to laugh or cry about this.

?

"Mother, this has nothing to do with Pingxi Hou! He has been leading troops in the frontiers for many years, so he naturally has no time to discipline his daughter!"

?

Xie Liuzheng felt very sorry for Pingxi Hou. She had clearly promised to help him persuade his mother, but she ended up causing her mother to misunderstand him.

?

Especially seeing her mother like this, Xie Liuzheng felt really unsure. She thought that if Pingxi Hou knew that it was her who caused her mother to misunderstand him, would he kill her in a rage?

?

Afterwards, Xie Liuzheng felt a little helpless. She had thought that Xie Xiangyu would be a little dissatisfied with Pingxi Hou, but she never expected that her reaction would be so intense.

?

Now Xie Liuzheng was panicked.

?

She never thought of ruining the relationship between her mother and Marquis Pingxi.

?

But seeing that the development of things exceeded her expectations, Xie Liuzheng hurriedly spoke well of Pingxi Hou!

?

"Mother, this matter is really not the fault of Pingxi Hou. It cannot be blamed on him! If someone must be found to take the blame, it must be Qin Shou!"

?

Xie Liuzheng originally just wanted her mother to be careful with the daughter of the Marquis, but she didn't expect that she would bring this trouble to the Marquis of Pingxi.

?

Xie Liuzheng was helpless about this.

?

She really hadn't thought of it that way.

?

But once the words were spoken, they could not be taken back. Xie Liuzheng only hoped that her mother could be a little more rational.

?

Fortunately, Xie Xiangyu said she was very calm.

?

"Liu Zheng, mother is very calm now, not impulsive! Of course, I will not vent my anger on Zhou Zheng just because of that marquis' daughter! After all, she is her, and Zhou Zheng is Zhou Zheng!"

?

After a long time, Xie Xiangyu whispered to comfort her daughter.

?

Xie Liuzheng heaved a sigh of relief when he heard her say that.

?

As long as mother doesn't vent her anger on Marquis Pingxi, it will be fine.

?

It just so happened that Zhou Zheng came to see Xie Liuzheng at this moment.

?

"Xiangyu, so you are here. I was waiting for you at Xiangyu Courtyard!"

?

Seeing Zhou Zheng coming, Xie Liuzheng quickly pushed her mother to him, "My mother is leaving, Marquis Pingxi, please help me send my mother back."

?

Pingxi Hou Zhou Zheng naturally liked Xie Liuzheng, who was so tactful.

?

"my pleasure!"

?

Xie Xiangyu didn't say much and just followed him obediently.

?

After leaving Xie Liuzheng's yard, Xie Xiangyu took him to the pavilion in the lake to sit, "Zhou Zheng, I have something I want to ask you clearly, otherwise, I can't be at ease with you."

?

Zhou Zheng said, "I will tell you everything I know."

?

"I want to know, how many people are there in your mansion? I mean how many people are there in the master's house? As for the servants, forget about it."

?

Originally, Xie Xiangyu felt that she didn't need to know too much. She would not go back to the capital with Zhou Zheng anyway. In her own little piece of land, Xie Xiangyu naturally didn't need to care too much!

?

But what Liu Zheng told her last night made Xie Xiangyu change her mind.

?

She could not indulge in enjoyment and comfort, but let Liu Zheng face those jackals, tigers and leopards alone.

?

If Xie Xiangyu wants to be her daughter's supporter, she must become strong enough. Zhou Zheng's kindness also touched her!

?

At the same time, Xie Xiangyu also didn't want to give up this hard-earned relationship.

?

Then she must decide to go back to the capital with Zhou Zheng, and Xie Xiangyu must know everything about some people and things in the Pingxi Marquis' Mansion.

?

More importantly, Xie Xiangyu was destined to have a hostile relationship with her stepdaughter whom she had never met.

?

Zhou Zheng didn't expect Xie Xiangyu to ask this, but he naturally didn't hide anything from her.

?

"Xiangyu, if you want to know about these situations, I can tell you! In fact, the situation in the Marquis's Mansion is very simple. As for the master, there are only four or five people, such as my mother and Pan'er..."

?

When Xie Xiangyu heard Zhou Zheng mention Pan'er, she asked, "Is this Pan'er your daughter? What kind of child is she? Can you tell me more about her?"

?

Zhou Zheng didn't doubt it and introduced his daughter with a smile.

?

"Pan'er is a well-educated and well-mannered child. You will definitely get along well with her. By the way, she is also a famous talented woman in the capital, proficient in everything from music, chess, calligraphy and painting."

?

When talking about his precious daughter, Zhou Zheng's face was filled with pride.

?

But Xie Xiangyu's heart sank. She didn't expect that this daughter still meant a lot to Zhou Zheng in his heart.

?

Originally, Xie Xiangyu had never thought about living in peace with this marquis's daughter. After all, in her previous life, even though this marquis's daughter did not take action against their Xie family, she fell in love with Qin Shou and forced Qin Shou to treat Liu Zheng harshly.

?

Xie Xiangyu will not let this account go!

?

What's more, in this life, the daughter of the marquis's mansion came to Qin Shou again for some unknown reason, and even tampered with the silk in the Xie family's warehouse in order to help Qin Shou vent his anger.

?

As a result, the hatred between the two reached its maximum.

?

Xie Xiangyu naturally would not let go of this daughter of the Marquis, but she did not expect that Zhou Zheng valued this daughter so much.

?

Then things will be difficult.

?

Xie Xiangyu knew very well that she and this daughter of the Marquis would definitely confront each other...
