Green tea was read, the villain's family begged me to be happy

[The Emperor gave the box of Purple Gold Blood-Dissolving Ointment to the Imperial Concubine, and told her that no one in the palace could surpass her. Privately, he forced the Imperial Hospital to bring a box and gave it to Concubine Yue, assuring her that she would always be the most favored concubine in the palace. Although her status could not be further improved, her friendship was the deepest.] The system narrated.

Xu Wanying immediately sneered and expressed her disdain: [Sure enough, the dog emperor is the biggest scumbag in the world. He is really good at it. He has two favorite concubines, one open and one secret, and he doesn't offend anyone. Then where does he put the queen, his legal wife? ]

[The Queen is his most dignified and virtuous wife. The Emperor often says that the Queen is his only legal wife and the mother of the country. Jealousy is the business of concubines. The Queen has dignity that none of them have! ]

Xu Wanying sneered: [He did this to make everyone happy if the balance is achieved. But if one side collapses, then everything will be lost, or even die. System, this dog emperor will die on a woman's belly just like his scumbag father, right?]

[No, he didn’t die on a woman’s belly, he died in——]

[Wait a minute, you better not talk about this kind of thing. It's useless for me, a commoner, to know. It will only do harm. As the saying goes, the more you know, the faster you die. I'd better save my energy for eating small melons! ]

Xu Wanying stopped it in time. She was now very wary of the system. She always felt that this guy was so straightforward and had no good intentions.

The system sighed softly: [What a pity, host, you almost knew the biggest secret. ]

[I don’t trust you!] Xu Wanying sneered and was not fooled at all.

Li Chunlan who was sitting nearby didn't dare to breathe. She originally just wanted to hear news about the women in the harem, but she never expected that she would hear the cause of death of the emperor.

Fortunately, Xu Wanying interrupted her, otherwise she would probably have had trouble eating and sleeping for two months.

"Third sister-in-law, take a look at these. Are you satisfied? I originally packed eight boxes, but then I thought six would be a good luck, so I only brought six. I'll bring more next time when I have ten boxes."

Li Chunlan took a deep breath and secretly encouraged herself. She barely recovered her spirit and turned to chat with Xu Wanying.

She did not forget the purpose of her visit today, which was to find out the cause of Jiang Chengzhong's death so that she could escape in time.

Xu Wanying came back to her senses and quickly said politely, "That's enough, sister-in-law, you are too polite. Pan Ge'er got a good beating because of this matter, and you gave me an apology twice. I am embarrassed to accept it."

"Sister-in-law, your head is broken. It's not a minor injury. You must accept it." Li Chunlan said firmly.

Xu Wanying couldn't help but sigh: [Ah, my sister-in-law is really generous. It's true that she is grateful for what she has received. From now on, I will be embarrassed to curse the fat man so harshly. I will just curse him a few more times next time.]

Hearing Xu Wanying's inner thoughts, Li Chunlan's mouth twitched a few times. Should she thank her third brother's wife on behalf of Pan Ge'er?

After delivering the things, Li Chunlan should have left.

But her goal had not been achieved yet, so she had to bite the bullet and sit back in her seat, holding her tea and starting to chat idly.

Unfortunately, the two sisters-in-law were not familiar with each other and had no common topics, whether it was their growing environment or hobbies. They really couldn't talk to each other and the conversation seemed dull.

[System, why doesn't she leave? Can you find out what she wants to do? ]

[Host, I am not a worm in her stomach, so I have no way of knowing her inner thoughts! ] The system protested.

Although Xu Wanying didn't say anything else, from her secretly pouting expression, it can be seen that she was extremely sad about the uselessness of the system.

"Sister-in-law, I feel really bad for giving me so many gifts. Although I have just entered the Marquis' Mansion and I am young and inexperienced, if you have any troubles, you can talk to me. Even if I can't help, I can be a listener." Xu Wanying broke the awkwardness and asked proactively.

It’s not that she was willing to help, but it’s not a good idea for the two of them to just sit there facing each other.

When Li Chunlan heard this, her face immediately lit up with joy, as it was obviously exactly what she wanted.

But then I heard Xu Wanying's voice like a spoiled brat: "Anyway, I just listen, I don't care about solving it. 】

"Sister-in-law, it's not a big deal. I just have nightmares recently. I dream about your brother having bad endings, like dying on the battlefield, being stabbed, or being framed. Every time I wake up in the middle of the night, I can't fall asleep again, and I start having nightmares again the next night."

"My heart is beating like a ping-pong ball. Every time I close my eyes, I see your eldest brother in all his miserable plight. If I wasn't afraid of my mother-in-law scolding me, I would have asked a master to perform a ritual. I wonder if there is something unclean in the mansion!"

As soon as Li Chunlan finished speaking, she heard a sharp explosion.

[Ahhh, system, is Li Chunlan possessed by evil spirits? Or is she possessed by a ghost? ]

[Her dreams are scary and strange, and she has similar dreams every night. Do you think there is something strange about them?]

Xu Wanying screamed wildly in her heart and complained to the system. Although the words did not come from her mouth, the deafening effect was even more deafening.

[It shouldn't be. They are husband and wife. Maybe Li Chunlan had a premonition of Jiang Chengzhong's tragic fate and had a precognitive dream.] The system denied it.

But Xu Wanying didn't believe it at all, and still insisted on her own idea: [I don't think so. They are bedmates. Even if they have a precognitive dream, it shouldn't be so strong. Every night, it's a dream of her husband's death. Do you think this is reminding her that Jiang Chengzhong is in trouble, and the one who sleeps with her every night is not her husband, but a ghost in human skin! Legend has it that this is called painted skin——]

It was clearly a thought in my mind, but the voice was full of mystery. It became lower and lower as it went on, and it was even filled with a sense of horror.

"Ahhh-"

As soon as she finished speaking, she heard a scream. When she looked up, she saw Li Chunlan with her arms around her chest, a terrified expression on her face, and her mouth wide open. It was obviously her who had been screaming.

"Sister-in-law, what's wrong with you?" Xu Wanying asked immediately.

[It’s over, it’s over, system, could it be that my sister-in-law is also a painted skin? 】

[System, system, do you have any security measures? Protect the host's life! ]

The system said ruthlessly: [Host, I am a poor and happy system, only responsible for eating melons, and has no other functions. ]

Listening to Xu Wanying's increasingly outrageous speculations, Li Chunlan immediately said, "Nothing, there is a jade cicada in this box. I couldn't see it clearly in the dim light just now. I thought it was a bug and got scared!"

She quickly took out a jade cicada from the box. The cicada was carved from white jade and looked lifelike. It lay on the fingertips, as if it was about to flap its wings and fly.

Xu Wanying breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good, this jade cicada is so beautiful!"

Her attention was attracted by the jade cicada, so Li Chunlan put the jade cicada into her palm. It was warm to the touch and of moderate size, perfect for playing with.

"I'm glad you like it. I still have a lot. I'll bring you a box next time. Third sister-in-law, you said that I always dreamed that your eldest brother died. What's going on? Is something going to happen to your eldest brother?" Li Chunlan rarely had a bright idea. She grabbed Xu Wanying's hand and brought the topic back to the topic.
