Chapter 313 The mysterious person

At first, people couldn't see any people or things in the thick fog, but they could vaguely hear two people talking there.

It was like a play being performed in that thick fog, and the content of this play was all about the Yang family mansion that had disappeared from people's lives.

However, some people saw a man of about 30 years old sitting in a wheelchair in the thick fog. Therefore, people concluded that the people speaking must not be from the Yang family.

Since all the people living in the Yang family mansion were able-bodied, how could there be a situation where someone was sitting in a wheelchair?

However, a rumor spread from an unknown source that Yang Mulong, the second young master of the Yang family, had angered the once-famous Emperor Xia. In a fit of rage, Emperor Xia plunged a short knife into Yang Mulong's thigh.

Moreover, Emperor Xia coated the dagger with a deadly poison, causing Mu Long to remain unconscious in bed for over a week without showing any signs of waking up.

Yuqin, who was busy preparing for the old abbot's funeral, became depressed and unhappy after learning about this.

In addition, he saw a huge fire at the Yang residence that night while in the temple, and believed that his two sons and granddaughter had perished in the fire.

Then he began to suffer a mental breakdown, and couldn't even remember his own name. Fortunately, he was taken in by a very wealthy lady.

Otherwise, who knows how tragic Yuqin's fate would have been! And this lady was the mother of her long-lost younger sister, Xia Rong.

That's right! After giving birth to Xia Rong, Yu Ying secretly took a drug to fake her death. On the eve of her funeral, she ordered someone to secretly replace her with another woman's corpse.

However, she would live with a real mask from then on, fearing that her elder sister would be devastated when she learned of her death.

So on the first night after his own funeral, he secretly sneaked into the Yang residence alone and told Yuqin that he had not died.

This explains why Yuqin cried her heart out at her younger sister's funeral, but became remarkably calm the day after her sister's burial.

Some say that Yuqin was originally a very cold-blooded and ruthless person! That's why she became so calm after her own sister's funeral.

But besides her, there was another person who knew that Yu Ying was still alive and well in this world. That person was Master Yang!

Not only did Master Yang know that Yu Ying was still alive, but he also gave her a large sum of money, allowing her to live a carefree life.

However, unlike other women who became complacent after acquiring a large sum of money, Yu Ying used the money given to her by Master Yang to open a small shop.

Perhaps it was because God was particularly kind to this woman who lost both her parents at a young age, that her clothing store did exceptionally well.

People living near her shop were envious of how well her business was doing. So they repeatedly went to her shop to cause trouble!

Unfortunately, at this time, Yu Ying was still a weak woman with no power, and she could only endure it when a group of strangers suddenly broke into her small shop and caused trouble.

Although she was a weak woman, she did not allow herself to be bullied. She first inquired from the side why these people were causing trouble in her shop.

She had only intended to try it out, but to her surprise, she actually managed to find out the information.

It turned out that the villagers living near her shop were envious of how well her business was doing, so they repeatedly went to her shop to cause trouble.

When Yu Ying learned about this, she did not cause trouble for these people. Instead, she carefully wrote a line of words on the outer wall of her small shop using stones.

"Our shop is so popular! There are just too many people who want to have their clothes made here. And I'm the only one sewing the clothes for the customers, so I'm really overwhelmed."

"So I thought I'd hire some aunties and grandmothers who know how to sew to help me make clothes. If they do a good job, I'll pay them some money."

After Yu Ying released this message, many people came to Yu Ying's clothing store to sign up, hoping to earn some money.

Although it's a small sum of money, in the eyes of ordinary people, even a small amount is still money. Small amounts add up to a large sum!

It is precisely for this reason that Yu Ying's clothing store was able to develop rapidly in a very short period of time.

Once she had a certain number of customers, she didn't hesitate to open a second clothing store. The second store was just as successful!

When she started considering opening a third store, she suddenly felt that constantly running a clothing store was becoming monotonous. So she decided to open a shop that could provide food for others.

But after a few days, she began to think about a problem: every household has a stove and rice, and they all cook for themselves.

How could they possibly spend money at her tiny eatery?

After thinking it over, Yu Ying gave up the idea and decided to open a general store selling daily necessities.

Yu Ying's grocery store was the only one in their area. It's no surprise that business was booming!

As the saying goes, a tall tree catches the wind. Just when Yu Ying was living a prosperous life, she never expected to provoke the person she least wanted to be ashamed of.

That was the famous Emperor Xia. When Emperor Xia saw Yu Ying wearing a real-life mask, he immediately recognized her as his favorite woman, Yu Ying.

So he used all sorts of excuses to stay by Yuying's side, wanting Yuying to be with her like she used to.

However, the main reason why Yu Ying went to great lengths to obtain the fake death medicine was that she wanted to escape from Emperor Xia's side smoothly.

She wanted to make sure the Xia Emperor could never find her and their newborn daughter, in order to create the illusion that she was no longer alive.

So, on his deathbed, he entrusted Xia Rong, who was still an infant, to Yuqin.

But to Yu Ying's surprise, Emperor Xia actually kept Xia Rong, who was still in swaddling clothes, and wouldn't let her go! Isn't it said that men all have some degree of preference for sons over daughters?

Why didn't Emperor Xia have this idea? And wouldn't it be a very good choice for his precious daughter to stay with her elder sister?

Why should he cling to himself and his precious daughter? And he...

Moreover, he also knew that the Xia family was a place that would devour people without spitting out their bones.

Without the protection of her own mother and father, how could Xia Rong, who was still an infant, survive?

For this reason alone, Yu Ying hated Emperor Xia to the core! This is probably why Yu Ying has been secretly plotting against Emperor Xia for so many years.
