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

Li Shuyue couldn't believe it, "Li Qingqian, you are crazy!"

Li Qingqian stabbed Li Shuyue with a look like a knife. "I originally thought that my sister was the youngest child in the family and was spoiled by my parents. I thought that after I returned home, I would definitely take on the responsibility of the eldest sister and discipline my sister for my parents. But my sister is so bold now that she even did something like intentional murder. I can't control you anymore. I have to detain you in Ding'an Marquis Mansion and wait for my father to come and discipline you in person!"

Although Song Ningyan was angry about Li Shuyue's behavior, she still felt that Li Qingqian's remedial measures were sincere, and her anger was mostly relieved.

"I'm glad you can be reasonable. Biliu, invite Miss Li Si to the wing room in my courtyard and keep an eye on her. My Ding'an Marquis's Mansion will not be unable to support her mouth. When Prime Minister Li comes to pick her up, we can release her."

She knew in her heart that Ah Qian didn't want this matter to become a knot in the hearts of the two, nor did she want to make things difficult for both the Li Mansion and the Ding'an Marquis Mansion, so she took the initiative and chose to settle the matter privately before things got out of hand.

Li Qingqian looked at Meng Yanrong who was lying on the bed. She knew that she was awake and these words were meant for her.

I did all this today not only to settle the matter privately in a decent manner, but also to pave the way for my sister-in-law to marry into the Li family in the future and to dampen Li Shuyue's arrogance in advance.

Let the sister-in-law know that she will not have a hard time in the Li Mansion, and I will sort everything out for her first.

“Let go, let go!” Li Shuyue broke free from Biliu’s attempt to tie her hands, walked to Li Qingqian, pointed at her nose and cursed like crazy, “Bitch! As bitchy as your short-lived mother! Not to mention that I didn’t kill Meng Yanrong today, even if Meng Yanrong really died in my hands today, you dared to dispose of your own sister at will for an outsider, what on earth are you made of!”

Li Qingqian's rage was completely ignited, and he quickly pinned her to the ground, his tone icy and piercing due to the resentment that had been accumulated for a long time: "First, you deliberately killed someone, then you insulted your original wife, and now you dare to insult my sister regardless of age. Li Shuyue, it seems that I really gave you face."

She leaned close to his ear and told him a cruel truth: "I am now trying to settle it privately so that the Li Mansion and I will not be implicated by you. Have you ever heard that the late emperor's empress was sentenced to death by the late emperor because she beat a favored concubine to death without reason. The empress's biological father was a close minister of the late emperor, but he was implicated because of the empress's plea for mercy? If your actions today were to be spread, do you think your father would protect you or the entire Li Mansion?"

On the surface, she was confessing the seriousness of the matter to the other party, but to Li Shuyue's ears, it had another meaning.

Li Shuyue widened her eyes.

The Empress Dowager of the previous emperor? She knew how favored she was when the previous emperor first ascended the throne. There were only two women in the harem, her and the Imperial Concubine. Moreover, the Imperial Concubine had no family background, and the Empress Dowager, who was of noble birth, paid such a painful price after beating her to death.

Today Meng Yanrong is alive and not many people know that she fell into the water, otherwise the eldest daughter of the Minister of War would have lost her life in her hands. Even if Jiang Lin becomes successful in the future, what does it have to do with her?

She had forgotten that Jiang Lin had not yet been recognized as a prince, and what she had seen that day...

Li Shuyue gritted her teeth. She couldn't lose. She had to wait until she was married in glory, until Jiang Lin became a prince, and until she became the mother of the country.

By then, let alone Meng Yanrong, even the little bitch in Li Qingqian and Jiang Lin’s bed could be dealt with however he wanted.

Seeing that she was obedient, Li Qingqian sneered in his heart.

Li Shuyue has a big secret in her heart. She must feel that all the grievances she has endured are tests for her bright future.

Li Qingqian hoped that she could keep gritting her teeth and persevering like this, until she finally discovered that the thorny forest along the way was not a test, but a repeated reminder that she could not take this road.

Only after she had passed through the thorny forests and discovered that there was a cliff ahead and she could not turn back, did Li Qingqian truly feel that she had avenged herself for her unjust death in her previous life.

Li Shuyue was sent away by Song Ningyan's men.

Li Qingqian turned and walked to Meng Yanrong's bed, and the other party slowly woke up.

"Don't be afraid, Sister Yanrong. You saw everything just now. A Qian is not the kind of person who would abandon fairness to protect his younger sister." Song Ningyan spoke for her first.

To be honest, Li Qingqian didn't know what to do at this moment.

After all, Meng Yanrong has not yet married into the Li family, is not her eldest sister-in-law, and is not in love with her eldest brother yet. The person who wants to harm her now is her own sister after all, and Li Qingqian is not confident that she will believe him.

He could only stand there helplessly, his hands hanging by his side tightly clutching the hem of his clothes.

Meng Yanrong slowly sat up on the bed and leaned on the fox fur cushion that Song Ningyan had laid out for her. She had a calm and peaceful smile on her face. "I woke up before your people brought your sister here, and I have been listening to your conversation quietly."

Li Qingqian lowered his head silently.

"Actually, when Ah Ning first told me about this, I was still a little angry, and my previous good impression of you also disappeared. I thought you were the same person as Li Shuyue," Meng Yanrong smiled at Li Qingqian, "but why did you look so familiar to me when you were determined to seek justice for me just now? Ah Qian, have we met somewhere before?"

Li Qingqian raised her head in surprise, but met Meng Yanrong's confused eyes. Her nose felt sore and her eyes turned red.

After a long time, she gently shook her head and replied, "No, Sister Yanrong, this is the first time we meet."

Meng Yanrong frowned and nodded slowly, "Is that so."

Li Qingqian closed her eyes. There were some things that Meng Yanrong in this life did not know. Her sense of familiarity with herself must be a trace left by the confusion of time and space.

She didn't know what happened in her previous life.

Meng Yanrong smiled and consoled him, "It's okay. I'll remember that you helped me today. I'll also remember to stay away from lakes and rivers in the future. They are my nemesis."

She said this jokingly, which made Li Qingqian burst into laughter.

……

When the sun sets in the west, the plum blossom-hunting banquet ends.

After Meng Yanrong had packed up, she took the maid and got on the car back to the Meng Mansion.

Meng Jingcheng's horse was parked beside her carriage.

Noticing that Sister was in a bad mood, he pushed aside the carriage curtain and asked with concern, "Sister, what's wrong?"

Meng Yanrong was so absorbed in her thoughts that she was startled by his lifting of the curtain. "Just ride your horse well, why do you care about me?"

"Are you thinking about your own marriage?" Meng Jingcheng guessed.

Seeing her lower her head and remain silent, he knew he had guessed right.

He came closer and consoled her, "Don't worry. Brother Changyun told me today that the eldest brother of the Li family is very graceful, dignified, and gentle. You met the third Miss Li today, right? You saw that the younger sister is so outstanding, so how could the older brother be any worse?"
