After rebirth, she killed her best friend and took over the scumbag's kingdom

Ever since her mother passed away, Feng Ruoyan's world seemed to have fallen into endless darkness, and she spent every day and night like a walking corpse.

She bid farewell to her mother that night, but she never expected that the next day she would receive the tragic news of her mother's passing.

When Cui'er, her mother's personal maid, handed a box to her.

She opened the box, which was filled with banknotes and gold and silver jewelry that her mother had collected over the years.

It turned out that her mother had prepared all of this that night as her dowry for entering the palace.

She just couldn't understand why her mother suddenly passed away that night when she was clearly fine?

It must have been that bitch Feng Qiongzhu who did it.

She swore to avenge her mother and make that bitch pay the price.

However, before she could fully recover from her grief, an imperial decree came like a bolt from the blue.

The emperor asked her to stay at home to observe mourning for three years, and her father was also demoted.

The news made her feel like the sky was falling and she didn't understand why these things happened.

She thought of Li Meir, the woman who had been canonized as a concubine. She was also a member of the Feng family.

The emperor dotes on her so much, why doesn't she plead for her father?

She ran to the palace like a madman, wanting to see the emperor and the concubine.

However, when she rushed to the palace, she learned that the emperor had already set off back to the palace with the concubine.

She fell to the ground, crying, "Your Majesty, why did you do this to me? It must be that bitch, Concubine Chen, who said something to Your Majesty that caused my father to be banished to a remote place."

The guards at the palace gate heard this dirty girl hurling foul language at Concubine Chen.

They came forward with sticks to drive her away, and they shouted:

"Where did this madman come from? You still want to see the Emperor and the Concubine? Who do you think you are? Get out of here right now, or we will be rude to you!"

Feng Ruoyan was hit with several sticks. She endured the pain and returned to the Feng Mansion with the help of her maid.

She felt even more sad when she saw her father dismissing the servants in the mansion with a haggard look on his face.

She walked forward with tears in her eyes and called out, "Father."

Feng Tingjing looked at his daughter in such a miserable state, and his heart was filled with pain and helplessness.

"Yan'er, don't go looking for the emperor. It's good enough that your father is still alive. I don't ask for anything else. Go wash up and follow your father to the place where he will take office soon. From now on, it will be just the two of us, father and daughter, who will depend on each other."

Feng Ruoyan finally broke down when she heard this. She threw herself into Feng Tingjing's arms and burst into tears.

Feng Tingjing patted her back gently and comforted her: "Okay, don't cry anymore."

He had already sent someone to deliver the title deed of the Feng Mansion to the Xiao Mansion.

I hope Xiao Qiongzhu will detoxify herself after accepting the house deed, considering that they were once father and daughter.

The death of his wife and his mother's paralysis due to a stroke had already frightened him.

At this time, the housekeeper came back in a hurry.

Feng Tingjing let go of Feng Ruoyan, whom he was hugging tightly, and signaled the maid to take her to rest.

He pulled the butler aside, his voice somewhat nervous:

"Did she...did she accept the deed?"

The housekeeper panted slightly, "Master, when I went there, they were just about to leave. I promptly conveyed the deed and your words to the eldest lady. She accepted the deed and said that you were not poisoned and she was just fooling you at that time."

Feng Tingjing's heart sank suddenly. He couldn't believe that he had been deceived by her.

He gritted his teeth and cursed: "This little bitch!"

The housekeeper whispered, "Master, it's no use scolding you now. The young lady is ready to leave Cangzhou."

"Where did she go?"

"I heard he was going to Shangjing City."

Feng Tingjing suddenly felt dizzy and collapsed to the ground.

If he had known that this would be the outcome, he would never have chosen to break up with her.

In that case, he would now be the father-in-law of the Prince of Duan's Mansion, so why would he need to go to a small county town?

Unfortunately, there is no regret medicine in the world.

……

It is the season of clear and crisp autumn weather, with a few thin clouds floating leisurely.

Inside the carriage, Xiao Qiongzhu leaned on a soft brocade cushion. The breeze outside the window blew gently, bringing a hint of fresh floral scent.

She was wearing a light and elegant dress, her fingers resting lightly on the window frame.

Xuan Wu looked at her in a good mood and couldn't help asking, "Master, why did you let Feng Tingjing go?"

Xiao Qiongzhu looked out the carriage window and said slowly:

"Lu Minjing's funeral has just been completed, and the old lady of the Feng Mansion has suffered a stroke and is paralyzed. If Feng Tingjing has another accident at this time, won't everyone suspect me? Although I hate him to the core, I have to consider the overall situation."

Xuan Qi sat opposite her, holding a plate of various exquisite snacks in his hands.

She carefully handed the snacks to Xiao Qiongzhu, "Master, please try these snacks. They are all made by Mother Wang herself, osmanthus cake, chrysanthemum cake, coconut milk cake... every one of them is delicious."

Xiao Qiongzhu nodded and looked at the snacks in front of her.

"This was all made by Mother Wang herself?"

Xuan Wu smiled and said, "Mother Wang's cake recipes were all brought out from the palace. They are delicious."

Xiao Qiongzhu gently picked up a piece of osmanthus cake, took a bite, and her mouth was immediately filled with fragrance.

"This sweet-scented osmanthus cake is so sweet and delicious. Xuanwu, how many snacks do you have? Wrap them all for me."

Xuan Wu heard this and said, "Master, don't worry, I've prepared a lot for you, you can eat without worry."

Xiao Qiongzhu was filled with excitement at the thought of meeting her grandmother soon.

Just then, the carriage suddenly stopped.

She realized that Longhua Temple might have arrived.

Yun Kaizhou got off the carriage in front and walked to her carriage.

"Zhu'er, we have arrived at the foot of the Longhua Temple. Let's park the carriage aside and walk quietly to the back mountain to pay our respects to our grandmother."

Xiao Qiongzhu nodded.

"Okay, Xuanwu, give me the packed snacks. You guys wait for me in the carriage. I'm going to meet someone."

After Xuan Wu handed her the snacks, she asked worriedly, "Master, do you really not need us to accompany you? Will it be unsafe?"

Yun Kaizhou comforted them outside the carriage: "I and Senior Brother Ji Guiyi are here, so there's nothing to worry about."

After Xiao Qiongzhu got off the carriage, she was surprised to hear that her senior brother would also be traveling with her:

"Brother, why do you want to come with me?"

Yun Kaizhou explained: "I'm not sure about this. When your senior brother heard that you wanted to visit your grandmother, he decided to go with you. After all, your senior brother is also an insider. With him around, your grandmother can rest assured."

Yun Kaizhou supported Xiao Qiongzhu and slowly crossed several small hills, while Ji Guiyi followed them silently.

Yun Kaizhou held Xiao Qiongzhu's hand tightly and said, "Grandma Xia usually takes care of her vegetable garden in the back hills after lunch. Now is the perfect time to go there."

The three finally arrived at the back of Longhua Temple, where there was a lush vegetable field.

From afar, a white-haired old man was bending over and working, carefully weeding and watering.

Xiao Qiongzhu recognized at a glance that it was her grandmother whom she had not seen for many years.
