The daughter of the first wife is a black lotus, reborn and remarried to kill

Shen Changyun sighed helplessly, "That's fine. Cangshu, go get two people to look after the yard for mother."

Then he coaxed his mother-in-law in a gentle voice: "Son will keep a close eye on father in the future and never let him take the opportunity to sneak into Wanxiang Courtyard again, okay?"

*** turned around and went back into the house with satisfaction.

Not long after, Cang Shu came out with the Duke of Zhenguo who was tied up.

Shen Changyun looked at his father with his hands on his hips in silence, "Father, what are you doing?"

The Duke of Zhenguo said nothing, just gave Shen Changyun a cold look and followed Cang Shu.

Li Qingqian looked at Shen Changyun and pointed to the butler key in his hand.

Shen Changyun nodded, "Since it was given to you by your mother, just keep it."

Li Qingqian did not refuse, but looked at Shen Changyun with a half-smile and said, "Since I am also the mistress of this mansion, shouldn't you be honest with me about some things?"

"What?" Shen Changyun's face showed a trace of doubt, "I have never concealed anything from my wife."

You are such a good actor, my husband.

Li Qingqian smiled and pulled his sleeve back to Mozhu Courtyard.

Li Shuyue has been confused ever since she returned to the house. She doesn't understand why Cui'er suddenly betrayed her.

Just when she was about to find the person and severely punish him, she was told that Cui'er had gone out to look for Jiang Lin.

So Li Shuyue had no choice but to sit down and wait patiently.

It’s good that Jiang Lin is back, but I still have to have a good talk with him now.

Now the Liu family can no longer support him, and the Li family doesn't want him anymore. He can't survive for long with just the little money that the Liu family gave him.

However, the days are not too difficult. It is now the sixth day of February, and the Spring Examination is very soon. As long as Jiang Lin shows up in front of His Majesty, he will be recognized as a prince.

By then, not to mention Shen Changyun, even *** himself would have to give him some respect.

After all, your majesty has so many sisters, and Jiang Lin is the prince who has been abandoned since childhood. Coupled with your majesty's guilt, Jiang Lin is more favored no matter how you look at it.

Moreover, she had learned in her previous life that His Majesty would even depose the current most beloved crown prince and make Jiang Lin the heir apparent.

By then, not only will Li Zhengkang come crawling to beg him to return to the Li family, even the crown prince Jiang Huaijing who humiliated him in public that day will have to kneel before Jiang Lin and beg for mercy!

As the candlelight flickered, Li Shuyue's expression became even more fierce.

Jiang Lin came back at midnight, with the timid Cui'er by his side.

Li Shuyue, who was originally angry when she saw Cui'er, suppressed her anger after seeing Jiang Lin. After glaring at her fiercely, she pulled Jiang Lin to sit down.

"Where have you been these days, my husband? You've been missing since our wedding night, and you didn't even accompany me to my parents' home today. My husband's behavior has really embarrassed me."

There was no tea at home, so Li Shuyue just poured him a glass of water, with a look on her face that seemed both coquettish and angry.

Jiang Lin's brows twitched slightly, he glanced at the cracked rim of the teacup with some disgust, and curled his lips in dissatisfaction.

"If I followed you back to Li Mansion today, I would be totally embarrassed."

Hearing his words, Li Shuyue immediately understood that Cui'er had already told Jiang Lin everything that happened today.

After glaring at her again, she said to Jiang Lin in a flattering tone, "I think my husband knows... But you know my third sister's temper. She has always been arrogant. Now that she has the support of Master Shen, how could she miss the opportunity to frame me?"

Jiang Lin glanced at her calmly, tapping the lid of the cup again and again, and raised his eyebrows and said, "Oh? You mean, you were kicked out of the Li Mansion today because she framed you?"

Li Shuyue nodded as a matter of course and grabbed Jiang Lin's sleeves with both hands, "Husband, you have to make the decision for me."

Jiang Lin chuckled and sighed, "But now I have no achievements or honors, nor do I have any lordship, how can I make the decision for you?"

Besides, could he put a knife to Li Zhengkang's neck and write Li Shuyue's name on the family tree again?

Even if he had the ability, Jiang Lin didn't want to do it.

How long had he been looking forward to this day since he and Li Shuyue got engaged?

He dreamed of letting Li Shuyue fall into the mortal world and be tortured by him.

Now that the opportunity has come, how can we let it go?

Li Shuyue was still hesitating: "Although my husband is not doing well now, you are full of talent. As long as you work hard in the Spring Examination, you will have a good future. But right now, we are a little stretched..."

She bit her lower lip lightly, took out the banknotes and the house deed from her sleeve pocket and placed them in front of Jiang Lin. "I was expelled from the Li family, and my mother was also confined to her house. I really can't take out more. This is what my husband returned to my mother before, and now I am taking it out to help my husband."

Li Shuyue didn't dare tell him that the Liu family was in dire straits now, otherwise if she was no longer of use to him, he might even divorce her.

Jiang Lin's gaze fell on the banknotes, and the light in his eyes became a little colder.

It was because of these things that he had endured so much humiliation, but now Li Shuyue was throwing them out like alms.

He curled his lips, "So, my lady, you want me to deal with those people in the Li Mansion for you when I become successful in the future?"

Li Shuyue nodded impatiently, with anticipation in her eyes, "As long as we work together as a couple, no one will be able to bully us anymore."

"Oh," Jiang Lin chuckled, "My lady, if you ask me for something, I can't refuse. But, since my lady also mentioned that we are one as husband and wife, I also have a wish. I wonder if my lady can agree to it?"

"Of course, my husband, if there is anything you want, just tell me. I will do my best to do it for you." Li Shuyue agreed immediately.

It's good to have requests. She is afraid that Jiang Lin will not ask for anything. That would be scary.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Lin took Cui'er's hand and said to her, "The people around you are all loyal and reliable, and Cui'er is even more charming. I wonder if you can give up your love and take her as my concubine?"

The smile on Li Shuyue's lips froze instantly, and her gaze followed Jiang Lin and slowly moved to Cui'er, who lowered her head and seemed a little shy and silent.

But if she said that before today, she would definitely agree to this matter. After all, it was good to have someone she could trust by Jiang Lin's side, because even if Ling Ling was not taken into the mansion in the future, Jiang Lin would have other concubines.

But today, this bitch actually helped Li Qingqian betray me. She can never be forgiven!

"No!" Li Shuyue stood up from her chair and pointed at Cui'er, "Your husband can take anyone as his concubine, but you have to take someone close to me. We've only been married for a few days, and you're clearly slapping me in the face!"

Jiang Lin frowned unhappily, "I wanted to take Lingling as my concubine before, but you didn't allow me. I thought you didn't like having outsiders in your house, so that was fine. But now I want to choose a concubine from your side, and you don't allow it. You just said that you would wait until I become successful in the future, but have you ever seen a high-ranking official in the capital who doesn't take concubines?"

Li Shuyue was shaking with anger.

But Jiang Lin didn't care about her feelings at all. "Could it be that what you said just now was just a lie? If that's the case, there's no need to talk about whether I will help you or not."

After saying that, he flicked his sleeves and stood up from his chair, as if forcing Li Shuyue to agree to his request today.

Li Shuyue looked at Cui'er beside her, then looked at Jiang Lin who had a determined look on his face, and knew in her heart that he was serious now.

But she was unwilling to give up. Jiang Lin, who had obeyed her in everything before the marriage, refused to break off the engagement with her even after being ridiculed in the Li Mansion. Now that she no longer had the support of the Li Mansion, he immediately turned against her and went against her.

But what if I am unwilling?

She was going to live with him now, and she would need his help in the future... Humph, as long as he, the prince, didn't feel ashamed to have a maid as his concubine, she would just go along with him.

So she pulled the corners of her mouth and forced a smile, "It's not that I don't want to, but it's late now. If I ask Cui'er to serve me tea now, it would be unfair to her."

Hearing her say this, Jiang Lin's expression eased a lot, and he took Cui'er's hand and said, "It's okay, Cui'er was promoted from a maid to a concubine anyway. I also know that the lady will feel unfair, and it's not wronged for her to offer you tea at this moment."

After saying that, he turned to look at Cui Er and said, "You are here to serve tea to Madam, which is considered to be a courtesy. I will go to your room to rest tonight."

Li Shuyue was shocked and felt humiliated.

She grabbed Jiang Lin's arm and said, "My husband, we didn't consummate our marriage on our wedding night, so how can we stay in her room now? I know you like her, but we can't abandon etiquette."

Jiang Lin smiled at her lightly, "What's the problem? Cui'er originally slept in the side room of the main house. There's no difference between me going to her room and going to your room. Didn't you bring back the title deed of the house? When we move back, give Cui'er a separate yard, and then I'll come to your room again."

What a shame! How could he say such a thing?

Jiang Lin didn't give any explanation and directly helped Li Shuyue, who was standing stiffly in place, to a chair and asked Cui'er to serve her tea.

However, since there was no tea leaves, water was used instead of tea.

It was on such a humiliating night that Li Shuyue was forced to take Jiang Lin's first concubine.
