The daughter of the first wife is a black lotus, reborn and remarried to kill
Chapter 104: Return Day
It was at that time that His Majesty changed his previous depressed attitude and began to plan for his future.
But planning requires connections, and winning over connections requires sacrifice.
*** became his victim.
The Duke of Zhenguo actually had someone else in his heart at that time. After marrying the young lady, he took the woman into the mansion and made her his concubine.
***, who had already sacrificed her freedom and become a victim of the struggle for imperial power, found her life becoming more and more difficult after the concubine entered the mansion.
The Duke of Zhenguo always favored the concubine in those days, but the concubine was not a good person either. She seemed weak on the surface, but she was often bullied by the Duke behind his back.
After much difficulty, she became pregnant with Shen Changyun, but was murdered by the concubine during childbirth, and almost resulted in both death and injury.
At this point, Shen Changyun sighed inaudibly, "Actually, I should have had a sister."
*** also knew her own identity and would not trap herself because of petty love. She knew that now was the critical period for her royal brother to deal with other people who posed a threat to him, and it was also the time for her and the Duke of Zhenguo to help each other, so she could not lose her temper at this time.
She endured it again and again until she gave birth to her second child, when the concubine harmed her again. This time, her daughter died at birth.
But on the rainy night when she lost her daughter, her husband stayed with the concubine who was afraid of thunder.
***Not only did his health suffer, but his personality also changed.
I know that although the Duke of Zhenguo is capable, he is not loyal enough because of his bad relationship with the emperor. This waste will definitely not be able to help his brother.
She simply assisted her brother and made plans for him, and the Duke of Zhenguo discovered the shining points of his wife, and slowly began to realize that, in fact, he seemed to like smart and courageous concubines more than the so-called "white moonlight" concubine.
But *** had already lost interest in him. If she hadn't wanted to borrow his power, how could she have endured the disgusting act of getting close to him?
Later, when Your Majesty successfully ascended the throne, *** became one of His Majesty's most trusted people.
Your Majesty cannot betray the Duke of Zhenguo who has served the emperor so well, so you give the Duke of Zhenguo drugs yourself, so that he can also taste the pain you suffered in the past.
It was at this time that the Duke of Zhenguo discovered the vicious side of his concubine and executed her immediately.
During that period, he frequently appeared in the mistress's courtyard of ***, trying to make peace, but how could it be so easy?
So when *** wanted to poison the Duke of Zhenguo with a cup of wine to send him directly to heaven, he discovered her plan.
When the truth was revealed, *** thought that he would divorce her and she could move back to the palace, and from then on, she could live the rest of her life comfortably by taking advantage of her brother's guilt towards her.
However, she didn't expect that the Duke of Zhenguo would become angry and tell her that he would never let her leave.
*** just thinks he is mentally ill.
But she was open-minded and didn't have to leave. After all, she had a son to play with. Besides, she had gone through so many hard times in the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion. After all the hardship, she finally got her reward. Why not enjoy the merits of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion?
Anyway, I will never look at that man again. The poison I have given him is enough to make him suffer. Let him be angry on his own.
She didn't care.
Therefore, for so many years, the Duke of Zhenguo has been suffering from a hidden illness. Every fifteenth day of his life, the symptoms would flare up and he would suffer unbearable pain. However, because this poison would not harm his health, His Majesty would not allow anyone to treat him.
As a result, the Duke of Zhenguo suffered unrelieved pain for more than ten years.
Well done! Li Qingqian thought.
My personality is exactly the same as ***'s.
Seeing her smiling face, Shen Changyun felt a chill on his back and said weakly, "Qianqian, if I were to be like this in the future, you wouldn't treat me like this, would you?"
Hearing his question, Li Qingqian turned to look at him with a mysterious and dangerous smile on her face, "Why, do you still have such an idea?"
Shen Changyun shook his head desperately.
Li Qingqian said coldly, "Don't worry, I won't do this to you. I will only torture you more cruelly."
Shen Changyun looked at her and suddenly became more excited. He grabbed her hand and said, "Really? I'm already beginning to get curious about how you'll torture me."
Li Qingqian rolled her eyes at him. His perverted personality was exactly like that of the Duke of Zhenguo.
"Okay, put away your worthless look," Li Qingqian said helplessly, "By the way, you must not make His Majesty angry during this period, okay?"
"why?"
"There's no reason. I'm your wife, just listen to me." Li Qingqian said domineeringly.
Shen Changyun chuckled, "Qianqian, you told me before that you would go to Yunzhou after we get married. In fact, His Majesty also ordered me to go to Yunzhou to do something after we get married. It's a coincidence. I have to leave in about ten days."
Li Qingqian was slightly surprised, "Your Majesty also wants you to go to Yunzhou?"
"No, it was His Majesty who asked us to go to Yunzhou together."
At this time, Li Qingqian was still confused. His Majesty asked Shen Changyun to go to Yunzhou to do business. What did it have to do with her?
But she had no time to think, as Shen Changyun took advantage of her unpreparedness and carried her directly to the couch.
...I was so careless.
At the same time, in Wanxiangyuan of ***.
As usual, the Duke of Zhenguo went to Wanxiangyuan as soon as he returned home, intending to try his luck.
"Changning, can I stay at Wanxiangyuan tonight?"
There was no sound of violence in the room, but the lights were turned off directly.
Afterwards, Caiwei gently opened the door a crack and said to the Duke of Zhenguo with a fake smile: "Madam has gone to bed, please go back, Duke. In addition, Madam also said that if the Duke comes again next time, she will order people to drive you out with a big stick."
After saying that, he slammed the door shut without mercy.
Having been turned down again, the Duke of Zhenguo smiled awkwardly, sighed, and walked towards his study.
As soon as he left, the lights in the main room came on again.
*
The bride has to return home three days after her wedding. Li Qingqian has been looking forward to returning to the Li Mansion these two days.
After counting the days, it has been more than ten days since he last saw the old lady. Li Qingqian missed her very much.
So early in the morning, Li Qingqian endured the discomfort of her body and struggled to get up from the couch. Shen Changyun couldn't get her to sleep with him for another nap no matter how hard he coaxed her.
Li Qingqian pushed away the person who was leaning on her with dissatisfaction.
Really, he knew that today was the day to return home, but he was so out of control last night.
God knows what she went through last night.
As a punishment, Shen Changyun had to ride his horse at the front of the procession, and Li Qingqian refused to ride in the same carriage with him.
The carriage stopped at the gate of Li's residence. When Li Qingqian got off the carriage, he saw a very small sedan chair coming towards them from afar. He thought it was Li Shuyue.
When Li Qingqian got married, Li Xi and Li Zhen were unable to personally see her off to marriage, so when she returned home today, they stood at the door early, waiting for the carriage from the Zhenguo Mansion.
Li Qingqian got off the carriage and walked towards the two of them with a smile on his face, "Hello, big brother, hello too, second brother."
As happy as a little child, Shen Changyun also followed her with a smile.
"Oh, my third sister is so glorious now. Why don't I see my sister and brother-in-law riding in the same carriage? Could it be... that they had a quarrel not long after their marriage?"
Li Shuyue's sarcastic voice came from behind.
Li Qingqian didn't indulge her. With a faint smile on his face, he turned around and said to her, "Hey, today is the day to return to your parents' home. Why don't you see your brother-in-law coming back with your sister? Did you have a fight not long after your marriage?"
Li Shuyue was choked.
She just couldn't bear to see Li Qingqian being so complacent, so she deliberately picked this spot to make things difficult for Li Qingqian.
Unfortunately, she didn't understand that this was exactly what Shen Changyun was doing to please her.
If they were not getting along, given his personality, he could have just not accompanied her back home. So why did he personally help Li Qingqian get off the carriage?
But Li Shuyue felt a little embarrassed.
Jiang Lin has not returned since he left on his wedding night, and even Aunt Jiang doesn't know where he is.
Li Xi was also aware that the Liu family had teamed up with Beiyuan to assassinate him. Although he would not embarrass his younger sister in public, he did not give her a good look either.
Li Zhen was a scholar who knew etiquette and the overall situation. He said with a straight face, "Okay, stop arguing at the door. If you have anything to say, go inside and talk."
Li Qingqian shrugged, pulled Shen Changyun and followed Li Xi into the mansion.
Looking at Li Shuyue standing at the door, who seemed to be angry, Li Zhen was a little annoyed with her at the moment, "Why don't you go in quickly? Today is the day you return home, do you want to make the whole family unhappy?"
Li Shuyue glared at him and said, "You have always favored Li Qingqian since you were a child, so you naturally think that whatever she does is right and whatever I do is wrong."
After saying that, she lifted up her skirt and strode into the mansion.
Li Zhen looked at her back and his face became even gloomier.
They lost their mother early, and no matter what mistakes Li Shuyue made or how she bullied A Qian, Liu always protected her and indulged her without knowing the truth.
The father has always considered his own interests more important than his own children. He turned a blind eye and condoned the actions of the mother and daughter.
My grandmother is old and in poor health, and her palms and backs of her hands are all flesh, so it is not good for her to always favor A Qian.
If my elder brother and I hadn't protected Ah Qian, the mother and daughter would have eaten her alive.
But when Li Zhen asked himself, he realized that apart from loving his sister A Qian even more, he did not treat Li Shuyue badly because of Liu.
The same goes for my eldest brother.
He thought he had a clear conscience for having done this, but Li Shuyue was still not satisfied, as if he didn't treat her as a sister if he didn't join her in bullying A Qian.
