I want to make progress

Chapter 50 The target is the Duke of Huguo’s Mansion!
Naturally, he flattered and coaxed Madam Meng Nianjiao, and didn't even dare to say a harsh word.

If it were just this, he could only be said to be a spineless, gigolo. But this man happens to be a gigolo, and he doesn't like his wife who is strong and always tramples on his dignity, and he feels resentful and inferior.

So when he returned to his hometown to worship his ancestors, he reunited with his abandoned ex-fiancée, and they were attracted to each other and their old love was rekindled!

Tang Honghui's mistress was not a good person either. At the beginning, Tang Honghui was just a poor student with some talent. As the daughter of a merchant family, she saw his future. After a chance encounter, appreciation and silver gifts, the poor boy from the countryside quickly fell for her and regarded her as a goddess.

The two of them were willing and soon got engaged, but no one expected that the poor country boy would become so ambitious after entering the capital. Perhaps it was the lesson learned from his fiancée that opened the door to a new world for him, but after all his calculations, he ended up losing both his wife and his army.

Not only did she lose her money and her life, she also damaged her reputation. If she hadn't called off the engagement wisely, she would have almost lost her life. But even so, the mistress's family suffered a great blow, and they couldn't resist at all.

Because of this, it became very difficult for the concubine to get married. Good men looked down on her, and bad men looked down on her. She wasted several years at home, and even her family members blamed her.

It was not until a few years later, when Tang Honghui returned to his hometown to worship his ancestors, that his mistress found the right opportunity to approach him. She was gentle, considerate, and infatuated with him. She was a world apart from the arrogant and domineering wife in the capital who made him lose his dignity as a man.

So, with one doing it on purpose and the other taking it on purpose, the two of them got entangled with each other again.

This mistress was indeed a woman who knew how to control a man's mind. She was gentle and considerate, and gave Tang Honghui enough face, which greatly satisfied his male self-esteem and naturally won the man's heart.

So he secretly brought his mistress back to the capital and settled her in a remote courtyard. The two of them called each other husband and wife. To the outside world, Tang Honghui was a businessman who often went out for business. Over the years, the two of them lived a very good life, and Meng Nianjiao never doubted it at all.

And this time, Meng Nianjiao discovered the affair between the two by accident, so she rushed to catch them in adultery. Who would have thought that this incident almost turned into murder!

Fortunately, there were people around when the incident happened, and timely treatment was given so no one was killed. Unfortunately, the knife wound was in the lower abdomen. Although it was not fatal, it made Tang Honghui no longer a man in his life.

The consequence was that no one died, but people were humiliated. Tang Honghui's life was ruined and his official career was over.

The victim was an official of the imperial court, and the case involved the beloved daughter of the Duke of Protector of the Country. The governor of Shuntian Prefecture who took over the case was so troubled that his hair dropped out in clumps. He dared not move!

After finding out the truth of the case, he immediately sent his men to the Duke of Huguo's Mansion to report the news, and then went to the palace to report to the emperor without any delay. This was no longer a case that he, a small prefect of Shuntian Prefecture, could decide.

Since taking over the post of Shuntian Prefecture Governor, the governor, who has aged several years in a short period of time, said that his life is really too difficult!
"So in the end, the case was handed over to Shuntian Prefecture and the Dali Temple for joint trial. As for the result, I'm afraid the arm can't change the thigh."

After several days of fermentation, Yuyan finally brought the follow-up of that day. In the past few days, this case can be said to have made the people of the capital city eat their fill of melons.

After painting the nail polish on the last hand, Yuyan said with regret: "It's a pity that Tang Honghui is not dead."

"I never intended to take Tang Honghui's life. He is more valuable alive than dead. The current situation is better than I expected." Shu Yunfu looked at the beautiful nails with satisfaction and didn't care. "It's just like what you said, the arm can't bend the thigh. It's just a life. With the power of the Duke of the Guardian's Mansion and the Queen Mother's power, it's easy to save Meng Nianjiao."

"But now Tang Honghui is still alive, but he hates Meng Nianjiao and the Duke of the Guardian's Mansion to the bone. Being suppressed by the Duke of the Guardian's Mansion, he probably dares not have any dissatisfaction, but if he is given any chance to take revenge, I believe he will seize it. With such a poisonous snake around, the Duke of the Guardian's Mansion... humph!"

With a sneer, nothing in this world can always be in its heyday, even the country is like this, it's just a small Duke of Protectorate Mansion.

A thousand-mile long dam is destroyed by an ant hole, and Tang Honghui is the ant she prepared for the Duke of Huguo's Mansion.

"The Duke of the Guardian's Mansion is not a good thing, and so is Tang Honghui. After this incident, I think Tang Honghui will not be on the same page with the Duke of the Guardian's Mansion. It is a sure win to eliminate an assistant of the Duke of the Guardian's Mansion and plant a chess piece!"

Her fingertips slid through the many pieces of jewelry in the jewelry box, stopped on a pearl hairpin, and put it on herself. She looked at her reflection in the bronze mirror and raised the corners of her lips. She was very satisfied with the result.

"It's a pity that Tang Honghui is just a son-in-law. He is not that important to the Duke of the Guardian's Mansion. We can't let the Duke of the Guardian's Mansion suffer any serious damage."

Yuyan stroked the hairpin and her mouth was full of regret.

"The Duke of the Guardian's Mansion is a huge thing. We can't be impatient. We have to take our time. When I decided to do this, I knew it wouldn't be easy. I also knew it would be a long process. Now we have a good start. Today I can destroy Tang Honghui, and tomorrow I can bring down the entire Duke of the Guardian's Mansion."

She also selected a pair of pearl earrings from the jewelry box and put them on herself. The light of the pearls was soft and bright, but there was a completely different determination in her eyes.

"Yuyan believes in you, Miss. You can definitely do it!"

Smiling as she presented the bright red lip balm, Yuyan saw her eyes glowing. She really believed that a powerless young lady could overthrow the powerful Duke of Protectorate's Mansion.

Smiling, she took the lip balm and smudged her lips red. "Notify Su Niang and tell our people not to make any more moves, lest anyone notice us. If you feel any danger, evacuate immediately. Our goal has been achieved. This will be enough of a headache for the Duke of Huguo's Mansion for a while. Our safety is the most important thing."

As soon as this happened, those people from the Duke of Protectorate's Mansion would certainly investigate. Although they did it inconspicuously, everything they did would always leave traces. She couldn't say that their plan was perfect, so she could only keep silent for the time being and avoid the spotlight.

When going against a behemoth like the Duke of Protectorate's Mansion, her only advantage is that the Duke of Protectorate's Mansion is in the open and she is in the dark. If she is exposed, this advantage will be gone, not to mention destroying the Duke of Protectorate's Mansion.

　Thank you for your support and love in the past year. I hope to share the same joys and sorrows with you in the new year!
