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

Meng Yanrong walked up to them and started a conversation with a smile: "What are you sisters talking about? I can see you guys chatting animatedly from a distance."

Li Qingqian was about to answer, but Song Mianshuang got there first. She warmly took Meng Yanrong's arm and said with a smile, "We are just chatting. It's rare to see the third and fourth daughters of the Li family walking together. I thought they didn't have a good relationship."

Li Qingqian looked at Song Mianshuang with amusement, "Miss Song, why are you saying that? We are sisters from the same family, how can we have a bad relationship?"

Li Shuyue couldn't help but speak up, "Miss Song, you and Miss Song have a bad relationship, so you think all the sisters in the world are like you, right? My sister just said in the carriage that she would take me to the Spring Market in a few days. Don't think that the relationship between sisters in the boudoir in Beijing is so bad, okay?"

Song Mianshuang looked a little embarrassed, and after a long while she managed to force a smile, "My second sister is now in the favor of His Majesty, so how can I not be intimate with her? It's just that I recalled the incident at the last Plum Blossom Feast, so I mistakenly thought that you two were not on good terms. Sister Yanrong, am I right?"

Meng Yanrong looked blankly and asked, "What happened last time? What happened last time?"

Song Mianshuang's expression froze for a moment, "Yan, Sister Yanrong, have you forgotten? What happened last time."

She tried her best to wink at Meng Yanrong, hoping that she would understand her intention and vent her dissatisfaction on this topic.

Meng Yanrong is a few years older than them, so how could she not see what Song Mianshuang is thinking? Although she was dissatisfied with Li Shuyue for the last incident, she would not vent her anger on the innocent Li Qingqian and Song Ningyan who saved her life.

She looked at Song Mianshuang in front of her with a curious smile on her face and asked, "I don't quite understand what Sister Song said. You also know that I am stupid. What do you want to say? Can you give me a clear indication?"

It was almost their turn to check the business cards. Because of their conversation, many eyes looked over, as if they were waiting for Song Mianshuang to say the next word.

Song Mianshuang was angry and thought that she might as well say it. Anyway, the Li family was not in the right in this matter. Even if she said it, the worst that could happen was that she would explain the whole cause and effect and put a damper on Li Qingqian's arrogance.

Isn't she going to get married next month? It's a good opportunity for Master Shen to have a good look at what kind of character his future wife is. If he teaches Li Qingqian a lesson behind closed doors, it will also be a revenge for the past ten years.

Song Mianshuang was about to speak, but Song Ningyan whispered beside her, "Sister, you have to think it over. The maid next to you colluded with outsiders, and the crime of improper management of servants will be counted on your head. Will the family you want to arrange a marriage with accept a mistress who has no housekeeping ability?"

She was shocked by Song Ningyan's words and dared not say anything.

I have been told since I was a child that I will be the queen in the future. I see that my father is trying hard to ask the emperor to grant me a marriage so that I can marry into the Eastern Palace. I dressed up so beautifully today to win the emperor's favor. How can I dig a hole for myself here?

Song Mianshuang covered her chest in fear and swallowed awkwardly.

Seeing that she was silent, Li Qingqian raised her red lips, "What does Miss Song want to say? We are about to go in, it is better for us to talk things out outside the palace, right?"

Song Mianshuang looked up unwillingly at her long-time imaginary enemy, "I don't want to say anything, there's nothing to say!"

Li Qingqian said "Oh" meaningfully, "Then why are you so sure that my sister and I have a bad relationship? Could it be that you are deliberately trying to sow discord?"

Meng Yanrong was also puzzled and said, "I am the eldest sister in the family, and my sisters are still young. Even though there is a big age difference, we are very harmonious. Sister Li San and Miss Si are only one year apart in age, so they should be able to talk about everything on weekdays. How could they end up like what Sister Song said?"

Li Qingqian nodded. "My fourth sister and I are the only two girls in my family. We have a very close relationship. I even took my younger sister with me when I went to the market a few days ago. I don't know why Miss Song is dissatisfied with my sister and me, and she insists on giving us a bad reputation."

Song Mianshuang herself agrees with what she said today from the bottom of her heart.

Ever since Song Ningyan recovered from her illness two years ago, she had been listening to her mother and trying her best to get rid of Song Ningyan.

But not only did he fail every time, but he also let the other party become a favorite of the emperor step by step. He really lost more than he gained.

Song Ningyan and she were enemies, and she subconsciously believed that all the sisters who had conflicts would be like her and her, and would want to bite each other to death when they met.

However, the fact was just as she thought. Li Shuyue had a murderous grudge against Li Qingqian. From her point of view, she was irreconcilable with him, but Li Qingqian had experienced more in life, so naturally she could tolerate it more.

She also slowly let out a breath in her heart. Fortunately, she helped Li Shuyue get off the carriage just to pretend.

Then, from the perspective of outsiders, since the two sisters could ride in the same carriage and the elder sister was willing to personally help her younger sister get off the carriage, how could they be as incompatible as Song Mianshuang said?

It's not like we're blind. In recent years, Song Mianshuang, who has become the daughter of the marquis's family, has been in the spotlight among the nobles. Suddenly, the third lady Li, who is often mentioned together with her, has begun to emerge. It's possible that she is unhappy and wants to damage her reputation.

Song Mianshuang knew that continuing to talk would be disadvantageous to her, but she just couldn't swallow this anger.

After calming down, he tried to fool her, "The affairs between you and your sisters were originally known only to you two sisters. Even if there was any quarrel between you two, how could an outsider like me know about it? Forget it, let's not talk about it anymore."

This statement obviously sounds like an attempt to smooth things over, but it makes me uncomfortable no matter how I listen to it.

Not far away, a straightforward young lady from an official family could not stand it and said loudly, "When I came here just now, I saw that the fourth young lady of the Li family was helped down from the carriage by the third young lady herself. It doesn't look like they have a bad relationship. Miss Song saw that the two young ladies of the Li family were going to get married next month, so she deliberately said these words to make people misunderstand that they were of bad character, right?"

Song Mianshuang's anger was instantly ignited, and she immediately yelled at the girl: "How dare you, a fifth-rank official from a pastry shop, speak so rudely to me? You really don't know the rules and etiquette!"

The girl also had a hot temper and responded directly and bluntly: "Yes, my family is of humble origin and my official position is not high, but I know the basic etiquette and honor, and I would never do such a thing as sowing discord and throwing dirty water on others. Also, don't forget that my aunt is the imperial concubine in the palace. She also taught me when I was young. If Miss Song feels that what I said wronged you, you might as well ask the imperial concubine what she taught me when you see her later."

Song Mianshuang was so angry that she wanted to go up and hit her, but Song Ningyan stopped her and shouted, "Sister, aren't you ashamed enough?"

But he was pushed away by the other party, "Don't pretend to be a good person here. You dare to help outsiders bully my elder sister. If you have the guts, use the tricks you use at home!"

Song Ningyan snorted coldly, "Miss Liu is right. If you want to throw dirty water, I will do it right away."

Song Mianshuang wanted to say something, but was glared at by the female official who was waiting at the palace gate to check the name cards.

He warned sternly: "This is the palace gate. How can this majestic place allow you ladies to be so presumptuous? If Miss Song insists on hitting others after swearing at us, it would be better for her to go back early to avoid embarrassing herself in front of Marquis Ding'an!"

The people in the palace are all slick. Who doesn't know that the second Miss Song has won the favor of His Majesty for her medical skills in the past two years? Who wouldn't try to please her in private?

But the eldest Miss Song's temperament is completely opposite to the second Miss. She really doesn't have the dignified appearance of a daughter of a marquis.

Song Mianshuang took a few deep breaths and finally calmed down. She said to the female official with an apologetic look, "My Lord, I was wrong about what I said."

The female official then began to check the business cards again.

But when it came to Li Qingqian and Li Shuyue, the female official smiled and whispered to Li Qingqian after checking them out: "You must be Miss Li San, right? The Fifth Princess has instructed you to go to the Flower Pavilion in the Imperial Garden to look for her after you enter the palace."

After saying that, he glanced at Li Shuyue beside him and added, "Just you and your maid will be fine."

Fifth princess?

Li Qingqian searched her mind. She was not familiar with the Fifth Princess in either this life or the past. Why was she looking for her?

"Did the princess give any instructions?"

The female official shook her head, "This... I don't know."
