I'm reborn, so it's not too much to kill the one who traveled through the book, right?

A few little beggars had been squatting near the Yiyong Earl's Mansion for a few days, and finally they saw Miss Chen Yuan from the Yiyong Earl's Mansion going out.

A few little beggars started talking not far from the entrance of Earl Yiyong's mansion.

"This uncle's family is too stingy. I can't even get a little food."

“That’s right, why don’t we go to the west side of the city to beg?

I heard that the general's wife in the general's mansion in the west of the city passed away three years ago. During this period, the old lady is looking for a match for the general!

General Jianwei is not even thirty yet, and many young ladies have come to his mansion to meet him. There have been many banquets in the mansion these days, so we can go there and beg for food."

"Then let's go quickly! I heard that General Jianwei has made countless military achievements and is highly regarded by the emperor. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is extremely powerful. If we go to the general's mansion to beg for food, we should be able to get something to eat..."

"I don't know if it would be too late to go now..."

A few little beggars talked as they walked towards the west of the city.

When Chen Yuan and his maid came out of the door, they heard the voices of a few little beggars talking at the corner.

General Jianwei... was favored by the Emperor and had tremendous power...

Chen Yuan pondered for a moment and felt a little moved.

If she were asked to choose between Changsheng and General Jianwei, Chen Yuan would naturally prefer to be the wife of a powerful general.

"Miss, please get on the carriage." Seeing Chen Yuan standing beside the carriage in a daze, the maid Luzhu couldn't help but remind her.

Chen Yuan came back to his senses and got on the carriage. After Lu Zhu got on, he said, "Go and find out what's going on in General Jianwei's mansion."

Luzhu didn't ask any more questions, just lowered her head and replied yes.

Outside the carriage, a few little beggars saw Chen Yuan getting on the carriage, looked at each other, turned around and left the vicinity of Yiyongbo's mansion.

After a few little beggars left, they came to the place where they were going to meet Qu Lian at the agreed time.

They met in an alley near the rouge workshop.

Not long after a few little beggars arrived, Qu Lian came.

When the beggars saw Qu Lian, they all started talking at once:

"We did as you asked."

"That's right! Even if we tell her, there's no guarantee that the lady will listen."

"That's the daughter of the Yiyong Marquis's mansion. I wonder if she would care about what we beggars say..."

At first, the little beggars were eager to try and were very excited in order to earn a few copper coins.

But when they really finished speaking and came back to get the silver, they became a little nervous. They could get so much money just by saying a few words, and they began to worry that they had not done a good job.

Qu Lian smiled and didn't care about the beggars' anxiety. She took out a piece of silver from her purse and said, "If you are worried that Miss Chen didn't hear it, you can mobilize the people around you to talk about General Jianwei's mighty and domineering power and the power of the General's Mansion more often in places where she appears. This silver is your reward. After the task is completed, I will also thank you."

When the beggars saw the silver, they patted their chests and said, "Miss, please rest assured. We will definitely get it done for you!"

A few little beggars took the silver and left the alley. Qu Lian turned around and prepared to go back to the workshop, but when she turned around, she saw Zhang Liuniang standing not far away, looking at her expressionlessly.

"Manager Zhang, why are you here?" Qu Lian was a little surprised.

At this time, Zhang Liuniang should be in the shop, right?

Zhang Liuniang did not answer Qu Lian's question. She just walked up to Qu Lian and asked, "Why do you want to help Miss Chen from the Yiyong Marquis's Mansion? Does Madam know?"

Zhang Liuniang heard everything that Qu Lian said to the beggars. From the meaning of their conversation, Zhang Liuniang thought that Qu Lian was trying to connect the Yiyong Marquis' Mansion with the General's Mansion, and she was very dissatisfied.

But, although Shen Rong did not say it explicitly, Zhang Liuniang knew that the two of them did not get along.

She herself also had a grudge against the Yiyong Marquis' Mansion, but as a woman she had little influence, and the Pingyang Marquis' Mansion was not in power, so she could not avenge herself and could only bury her hatred in her heart.

At this moment, when she heard Qu Lian mention the Yiyong Marquis's Mansion, her face looked extremely ugly.

Qu Lian sneered, "Help? How could I possibly help Chen Yuan?"

Zhang Liuniang saw through it and realized that she had really misunderstood Qu Lian. This girl had a grudge against Chen Yuan.

"What's going on? Just let me know if you need my help." Zhang Liuniang was happy to see someone causing trouble for Chen Yuan.

Qu Lian looked at the shopkeeper in front of her and smiled, "Thank you very much, Shopkeeper Zhang. I really need your help with something..."

The next day, Zhang Liuniang entered the Pingyang Marquis' Mansion, told Shen Rong about Qu Lian's plan, and asked her to cooperate a little.

Others may not know about General Jianwei, but Shen Rong does. When she heard that Qu Lian was planning to push Chen Yuan to General Jianwei as his wife, she found it unbelievable.

"Will this... work?" Shen Rong was a little incredulous.

If she was not mistaken, Chen Yuan seemed to be targeting her.

Zhang Liuniang smiled and said, "Mrs. Qu said that Miss Chen has always wanted to marry a powerful man. Isn't General Jianwei a perfect match? One is marrying a concubine, and the other is a second wife. One is a general, and the other is a lady from a rich man's family. They are a perfect match made in heaven!"

The corners of Shen Rong's mouth twitched. It was such a pity that Zhang Liuniang didn't become a matchmaker. If she didn't know that General Jianwei was a tyrannical man, she would have almost believed Zhang Liuniang's lies.

However, Shen Rong could also understand why Zhang Liuniang was so concerned about this matter. After all, Chen Yuan still owed her!

"Then how do you need me to cooperate?" Shen Rong was a little curious.

Zhang Liuniang covered her mouth with a handkerchief and smiled, "Madam, your relationship with Miss Chen is complicated. If you can say something like you envy the power of the General's Mansion in front of Miss Chen, I'm afraid Miss Chen will do everything she can to marry into the General's Mansion."

Shen Rong lowered her eyes and thought for a moment, then she understood Zhang Liuniang's intention.

She and Chen Yuan were from the same place and had a complicated relationship between them. Now that they were in the capital together, they would naturally compare themselves with each other openly and secretly. Even if she, Shen Rong, did not compare herself with Chen Yuan, Chen Yuan was unwilling to fall behind her.

If she said something like that, even if Chen Yuan was not tempted, he would have some thoughts about the position of the general's wife.

"Okay, I'll send her an invitation tomorrow." It was just a piece of cake for Shen Rong, but if it was done, the result would be gratifying.

Shen Rong's guess was correct. Zhang Liuniang and Qu Lian also grasped Chen Yuan's thoughts very accurately.

When Chen Yuan saw Lu Zhu coming back, he couldn't wait to ask:

"How's the news going?"

Lu Zhu bowed hastily and said, "To answer Miss, the general's mansion is holding a banquet these days and has invited many ladies to attend..."

"That's not what I'm asking you." Chen Yuan interrupted Luzhu hastily.
