Li Qingqian returned to her yard, holding a mutton-fat jade pendant in her hand. Thinking about what had just happened, she burst out laughing.

An hour ago.

"Qingqian, it's not that your mother doesn't love you. Although the scholar is a little poor, he is also good-looking and seems to be well-educated. If he can pass the imperial examination this time, his future prospects will be limitless..."

In the main hall of Jinyu Courtyard, Li family mistress Liu was sitting on the main seat, trying earnestly to persuade Li Qingqian who was kneeling below.

She looked like a loving mother who was doing good for Li Qingqian.

"So mother means that I should marry that scholar in place of my fourth sister?" Li Qingqian frowned slightly.

"No!" Before Liu could speak, there was a sound of hurried footsteps outside, and the next moment, Li Shuyue's figure appeared in the main hall.

She glanced at Li Qingqian who was standing beside her, knelt down, and said to Liu: "Mother, I was the one who saved Mr. Jiang. I have already had physical contact with him, and I will not marry anyone else in this life!"

Seeing her daughter being so unpresentable and unrestrained, Liu ran in with her skirt lifted up. She was immediately furious: "You don't have the final say on this matter! Your sister has already agreed to marry that scholar for you. The Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion will come to propose marriage in a few days. You just need to wait patiently to marry Master Shen!"

Li Qingqian raised her eyebrows. It seemed that this stepsister was reborn just like herself.

Because in her previous life, on the day she returned to Li Mansion, she saw Jiang Lin falling into the water on the boat and jumped down to save him.

At that time, Li Shuyue looked at her with disgust and said disdainfully: "Sister, you saved this poor scholar, which can be regarded as having physical contact with him. If you don't marry him, you will bring shame to the whole family!"

"It seems that you are destined to marry a poor man. I am different. When the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion comes to propose marriage in a while, I will marry him for you. From then on, I will be the mistress of a high-ranking family and enjoy a life of wealth and glory."

But who would have known that this "poor scholar" in Li Shuyue's eyes was actually the ninth prince who was abandoned among the people by the current emperor.

He was born with outstanding talent and obtained top three honors in the imperial examination. During the palace examination, he met the emperor. His life changed dramatically from then on, and he even sat on the throne of the emperor in the future.

After Li Qingqian rescued him, she married him and they were so loving and enviable. Jiang Lin, who ascended the throne, even abolished the harem for her and promised her to be together for the rest of her life.

The prince of the Duke of Zhenguo Mansion, Shen Changyun, whom Liu mentioned, was the one that Li Qingqian's mother arranged for her when she was still alive.

One hundred days after my mother's death, my father, greedy for the Liu family's money, married his childhood sweetheart Liu as a concubine, and she gave birth to a daughter, Li Shuyue.

Instigated by her mother Liu, and taking advantage of the loophole that the woman engaged to the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion was the "legitimate daughter of the Li family", Li Shuyue tried her best to snatch this marriage from Li Qingqian.

In her previous life, Li Shuyue married into the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion as she wished, but unfortunately she did not live the life she wanted.

On the eve of his wedding, the prince of the Duke of Zhenguo got drunk, rode his horse through the streets, and even fell off his horse.

The emperor was furious, but he also remembered that Shen's ancestor was a founding general and that several generations had served him well, so he only ordered him to shave his head and become a monk.

Although the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo did not like Li Shuyue, she felt that her son had done such an indecent thing and that the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion owed the new bride, so she handed over the management of the household supplies to her early on.

But Li Shuyue herself was a useless person. She had an affair with her cousin from the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion when he came to Beijing to take the imperial examination and gave birth to an illegitimate child.

After her affair was discovered, the Duke of Zhenguo sent her to Guqing Temple to become a nun.

Although his father Li Zhengkang was the left prime minister of the dynasty, he was afraid that this scandal would be laughed at by his colleagues in the court, so he worked together with the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion to suppress the matter. They only said to the outside world that Li Shuyue was infatuated with his love, so she asked to go to Guqing Temple, hoping to continue her relationship with Master Shen in the next life.

At that time, Li Qingqian, as the Queen of Dawei, went to Guqing Temple to pray for Dawei and wish for rain.

When seeing her elegant and graceful sister, Li Shuyue became extremely jealous. She tricked Li Qingqian into going to the cliff in the back mountain by telling her about the real cause of death of her biological mother and then pushed her off.

While struggling, Li Qingqian grabbed Li Shuyue's ankles tightly and pulled her off the cliff. When she opened her eyes again, she appeared on the ship in her previous life and had just rescued Jiang Lin.

Li Shuyue was probably also reborn, which is why she couldn't wait to take credit for saving Jiang Lin after returning home.

idiot.

Li Qingqian complained in his heart.

"Madam, Madam." Liu's maid Yu Luo ran in hurriedly.

Liu scolded him, "How dare you! Who allowed you to make such a fuss? What happened?"

"It's spread all over the place, saying that our fourth girl was kind-hearted and saved someone, and that Master Jiang is also a man who knows how to repay a favor. It's really a good story. Master Jiang has already sent a matchmaker to propose marriage, saying that he will be responsible for the fourth girl."

Li Qingqian was surprised: How could Jiang Lin in this life act so quickly? In his previous life, he took three days to come to her house, and later he found out that he had gone to meet someone else first.

Liu was shocked and grabbed Li Shuyue and asked, "Did you spread it?"

"My daughter is in a hurry to go back home, how can she spare the time to spread the news? Oh, mother, now is not the time to talk about this," Li Shuyue was overwhelmed by joy and hurriedly ordered, "Hurry up and ask someone to invite the matchmaker in. Mother will go later."

Liu was so angry that her head felt dizzy, and the breath was stuck in her chest, unable to go out or out, and she almost rolled her eyes.

Li Shuyue quickly stepped forward to help her calm down, then whispered something in her ear.

Liu, who was about to faint from anger, suddenly came back to life, her eyes shining, "Are you serious?"

Li Qingqian raised her eyebrows slightly. It seemed that Li Shuyue had told Liu about Jiang Lin's life experience.

Li Shuyue nodded vigorously, "My daughter loves Mr. Jiang, and she will not marry anyone else in this life!"

Liu then smiled happily and said with a helpless look: "Since you like it, mother will do as you wish."

After saying that, he stood up and walked out.

Li Qingqian lazily stood up and sat down, "Sister, please wait with me so that you can share in my joy."

Li Shuyue glanced at her with disdain.

In her previous life, Li Qingqian was lucky and had the opportunity to marry Jiang Lin and become the queen.

It should be my turn in this life, but I wonder if Li Qingqian will regret it so much by then that she will hate not being able to snatch Jiang Lin away from me today.

Li Shuyue was waiting in such an excited and anxious mood.

An hour later, Liu came back with a happy face.

Li Shuyue hurried forward: "Mother, what's wrong?"

"Now the whole capital is saying that you and Mr. Jiang are a match made in heaven. How can I not accept this marriage? Now that the marriage is decided, we can choose an auspicious date when the Jiang family actually proposes."

After getting the answer, Li Qingqian curled her lips slightly and said to Li Shuyue, "Congratulations, sister, on finding a good husband. I will go back first and will not disturb you anymore."

The moment he walked out of Jinyuyuan, a sneer appeared on Li Qingqian's face.

Li Shuyue wanted to be the queen, but she had no idea what kind of devil Jiang Lin, who was so weak at the moment, would be.

In his previous life, Jiang Lin did sit on the throne of the emperor, but his throne was obtained by Li Qingqian and his two brothers.

But after he came to power, he was afraid that his brothers would become too successful and threaten the emperor, and he also wanted to take revenge on her.

In front of her, he tore her two brothers apart, one by five horses, and the other by skinning and pulling out his tendons. Even her young nephew, along with her pregnant sister-in-law, were turned into human pigs by Jiang Lin.

And Jiang Lin's endless favor to her was also an illusion. On the surface, he was affectionate with her, but privately he refused to consummate the marriage with her after the marriage, and pinned the reputation of "unfilial without an heir" on her, causing her to be looked down upon by civil and military officials and to be ridiculed by the people of Dawei.

He did all this just because when he fell into the water that year, after Li Qingqian rescued him, he turned against her and thought that she had deliberately designed to make him fall into the water in order to marry him.

Therefore, he missed his sweetheart, and his white moonlight also got married.

Jiang Lin believed that he could sit on the throne even without the assistance of himself and his two brothers, so after achieving his goal, he destroyed the bridge by brutally killing his brother, sister-in-law and nephew.

The so-called ceremony of praying for rain was actually a cover-up by Li Qingqian. She secretly sought out a sorcerer from the Western Regions to plant a poison in Jiang Lin to avenge her relatives.

But before he succeeded, Li Qingqian was pushed off the cliff by Li Shuyue.

Now, who would be willing to marry that devil?

Since the murderer who killed me in my previous life is willing to treat the scum as a treasure, I will give him to her.
