The daughter of the first wife is a black lotus, reborn and remarried to kill
Chapter 95: Why be a servant? Wouldn’t it be better to be a concubine?
Li Xi was watching the two being so affectionate and was happy. She couldn't help but joked, "Okay, okay, you're both about to get married, why are you still acting like a child and acting like a spoiled brat to your grandmother?"
Li Qingqian rolled her eyes at him arrogantly, turned her head away and ignored him, still refusing to get off the old lady.
After hearing what Li Xi said, the old lady smiled and raised her hand to hit him lightly, "How dare you talk about your sister? Before you left home to fight in Xiliang, didn't you cry and say that you couldn't bear to leave me? How come you forgot so quickly?"
Li Xi was helpless and said to Li Qingqian: "You see, grandma favors you. I was scolded for just saying a few words."
Then, he stood up, took a box from his attendant, and handed it to Li Qingqian, "Here, this is your wedding gift."
Li Qingqian opened it and was no longer surprised. "Another dowry?"
Li Xi laughed, "Oh, from your tone, it seems that you have been collecting too much money recently, right? If that's the case, you don't care about the dowry given by your eldest and second brothers. Then you should return it to me. Your second brother and I are counting on this money to help you marry a sister-in-law."
Li Qingqian quickly hugged the box tightly and refused to let go. "Don't even think about it. Don't think I don't know that your second uncle has prepared a valuable inheritance for you and your second brother. In addition, you returned victorious and the emperor rewarded you with so many treasures. This little money is nothing to you. Besides, why would you take something back after giving it away?"
Li Xi rolled his eyes at her with disdain, "Look at you, you're such a money-grubber. When it comes to money, you're so eloquent."
But what Li Xi said was right. I have been receiving a lot of money during this period.
The list included the 188-carat betrothal gift from the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, the generous dowry from her second uncle, the dowry from her grandmother, the dowry that was embezzled from her mother during her lifetime, as well as the dowry list from the Crown Princess and the Fifth Princess, and the dowry that Li Shuyue compensated for her.
Not only that, there are also dividends from Changminglou’s booming business.
If Li Qingqian can't sleep every night, she would count money to kill time.
Rich as hell.
Li Qingqian was in a good mood, so naturally he thought of someone who had been helping him secretly.
After returning to Jingying Residence, Li Qingqian casually took out three hundred taels of silver from the cash box and gave it to Yunchang, saying, "Go and give this money to Cui'er, and ask her to give it to Jiang Lin early tomorrow morning. This way, the thing she asked for before will most likely be accomplished by now."
After thinking for a while, he took out another hundred taels and handed it over.
"This is money for her to live on. When she becomes Jiang Lin's concubine, Li Shuyue may not give her a good life. Ask her to show Li Shuyue that she can help her deal with Ling Ling when necessary. As long as she doesn't betray me, I will never let her down in the future."
*
Yunchang carefully came to the outside of Jinyu Courtyard with the silver, grabbed Cui'er who was passing by and whispered: "Three hundred taels of silver are the capital you used to ask Mr. Jiang to be his concubine, and the remaining one hundred taels are the living expenses our girl gave you. You should know what to do next, right?"
Cui Er put away the silver and nodded, "Young lady, I am naturally grateful for your help. Please tell Sister Yunshang that I will definitely serve you loyally."
After Yunchang left, Cui'er touched the banknotes in her sleeve pocket, a cold light flashed in her eyes, and she looked towards the Jinyu Courtyard.
She didn't want to be a slave and subordinate to others all her life, and she didn't want to be beaten by Li Shuyue all her life.
She wants revenge, she wants to be a concubine who is served by others, and she wants Li Shuyue's life to be miserable in the future!
It would be best if I could taste the pain I once suffered.
Now that the third girl has given her this opportunity, and she and she have a common enemy, she feels more confident.
He walked into the yard in a good mood.
Unexpectedly, despite being so humiliated and confined today, Li Shuyue did not scream or throw things. Instead, she sat in the main hall of Jinyuyuan with a dull look in her eyes.
On the other hand, Liu, who was usually calm, paced back and forth in the room, seeming very anxious.
"What should I do? Seeing that Li Qingqian is about to enter the palace, and the prince has no interest in you, I am really worried!"
Li Shuyue looked up at her, then lowered her head again, and said depressedly: "I heard from my father a few years ago that the Ding'an Marquis intended to send Song Mianshuang to the Eastern Palace, but the prince never agreed. Even Song Mianshuang's beauty is not worthy of the prince, how could he be interested in me?"
After hearing these words, Liu stared at Li Shuyue with wide eyes.
However, Li Shuyue did not notice her mother's unhappy expression and continued to talk to herself, "I think, let alone me, even if Li Qingqian went, the prince might not be interested in her."
Liu's dissatisfaction was completely ignited, and she threw the handkerchief in her hand directly at Li Shuyue.
"Can you please stand up for me? I took great pains to plan for you, but what about you? How did you do it?"
Not only did she not try hard, she was also closer to the old woman from Jiang Lin's family, an outsider, than to her own mother.
What's the point of just pinning your hopes on a man? Aren't your own experiences and lessons enough to make Shu Yue realize the truth?
Liu's anger surged up in her heart, and she thought of another thing.
"The thing you told me before can't be done now."
"This is exactly why I'm worried," Li Shuyue grabbed Liu's hand, "Mother, Li Qingqian is about to enter the palace. If she gets married, won't the plan I prepared with so much difficulty be impossible to implement?"
She had originally thought that on the eve of Li Qingqian's wedding, she would have her mother's people sneak into the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion with the jade pendant engraved with Li Qingqian's maiden name, and display the jade pendant for everyone to see during such a lively occasion. By then, no matter how glorious Li Qingqian was, she would be drowned in spit.
Shen Changyun was also not free from blame. The other man's jade pendant was engraved with his bride's maiden name, so he would also be embarrassed.
With that person's temper, how could he swallow the loss of face?
That would definitely lead to him and Li Qingqian becoming estranged and disliking each other in the days to come.
If his temper was any worse, he might have beaten Li Qingqian severely.
In his previous life, his father even endured being sent to Guqing Temple. Now, Li Qingqian was just being beaten. He would definitely not stand up for Li Qingqian.
Could it be possible that Li Qingqian would fall out with the Zhenguo Mansion and the Li Mansion because of this matter?
It is even more unlikely that anyone would go to His Majesty to seek justice for her.
At that time, Li Qingqian will be helpless and even criticized by the world.
And when Li Qingqian is at her most miserable, she will be the one to accompany Jiang Lin to rule the world and enjoy unlimited glory.
It was just like in her previous life when she went to Guqing Temple in all her splendor to pray for rain, while he watched from the side in a miserable state.
It's time to change it today.
Li Shuyue felt happy and refreshed just thinking about that scene.
Unfortunately, Li Qingqian is now going to enter the palace to get married, and despite all her plans, something still goes wrong.
Li Shuyue was so angry that she was shaking all over.
But Liu didn't think it was a bad thing. "Although it can't be done now, can't it be done when I return home three days after the wedding?"
Li Shuyue became interested and looked at Liu with curiosity, motioning her to continue.
I only heard Liu continue: "Although she is stubborn and refuses to call me mother, after all, I am still the legitimate mistress of the Li Mansion. If the mistress of her natal family puts someone she likes by her side, how dare she refuse?"
Li Shuyue suddenly understood something, and a sinister look appeared on her face.
"Then I'll let the jade pendant matter out. With two approaches at the same time, even if Li Qingqian has mouths all over her body, she can't avoid this disaster!"
Liu took her hand with relief and patted the back of her hand gently, "That's right, this is what mother's good daughter who knows how to plan is like."
In the room, the mother and daughter were chatting animatedly.
Outside the house, Cui'er heard it clearly.
She sneered in her heart. She had already told the Third Miss about the jade pendant. How could the Third Miss not be prepared?
But when the time comes, how will the fourth girl explain the voodoo doll in her room?
She couldn't wait to see the "shooting oneself in the foot" drama.
*
Quiet Shadow Residence.
When Yunchang came back, Li Qingqian had already packed up her things with Yunyi, Yunwu and Yunyan.
Yun Yan: "These things are the girl's dowry. They will be placed behind the wedding procession on the day of her wedding. When the time comes, it will look like a ten-mile-long wedding, which will surely be very beautiful."
Li Qingqian smiled faintly, and when she turned around, she saw Yun Shang walking into the house.
"Has Cui'er given the instructions?"
"Well, she also asked me to tell you that she would be loyal to you even if she became Jiang Lin's concubine. I saw that she couldn't hide her hatred for the fourth lady."
Yun Yan snorted coldly, "After being beaten by Li Shuyue for so many years, it would be strange if he could hide it."
Li Qingqian shrugged. These were not things to consider tonight. Instead, he should think carefully about why the old emperor would issue an imperial decree to let him enter the palace.
