Use a substitute on your wedding night to scatter the ashes of your entire family

Li Huaiyi thought about secretly burying one of the children, but Xu was reluctant and begged him to save her child.

Although Li Huaiyi was cruel and ruthless, he was reluctant to kill his own daughter, so he thought of sending the child under her name.

At that time, the couple had just returned to the court in response to the imperial order.

"Brother, please have mercy on this child. It is still a life after all. You have been in the northwest border for many years. Now it is winter and you have many clothes to wear. No one will doubt why my sister-in-law suddenly gave birth to a daughter."

Of course they wouldn't agree.

"No! Your sister-in-law is already a month pregnant. If the child is registered under her name, what will happen to the baby in her belly?"

Li Huaiyi kowtowed three times: "One month is not enough to save your life. I will go to the clinic to get an abortion pill. My sister-in-law has aborted her baby, so she can still have confinement. I am not afraid that the doctor and the servants will find out."

"After the confinement period, you can take the child back to the northwest. Even if others think he looks like Yuanming when he grows up, it's okay. It's wrong for cousins ​​not to look alike. Brother, sister-in-law, don't you agree?"

Li Huaiying was so angry that his lips trembled violently: "Li Huaiyi, are you still a human being? You are going to kill my child for your daughter! Your daughter's life is life, but my child's life is not life!"

Li Huaiyi jumped up from the ground and pointed at her belly: "It's only one month. What's the point of it growing a head, or arms and legs? It's just a lump of flesh the size of a fingernail!"

Although Zhu Anhe was also very angry, she suggested that he give the child away because she thought of the child's innocence. At that time, a cook in the mansion had lost her eight-month-old baby in her womb. She suggested that he send the child under the cook's name so that she could feel at ease keeping the child under her nose.

Li Huai left angrily.

He was afraid that someone would find out that Xu had given birth to twins, a boy and a girl, and that he would lose his life, so he finally made up his mind and threw the children into the river.

After returning, he threatened that it was he and his wife who killed her daughter, and he wanted them to feel guilty for the rest of their lives.

This happened so long ago that they had forgotten about it, so much so that the second branch never mentioned it again. As the eldest brother, Li Huaiying, at the suggestion of the old lady, gradually handed over the entire General's Mansion to the second branch.

"Mother, what are you thinking about? Why are you thinking so vividly?"

His thoughts were interrupted and Zhu Anhe looked up and saw his daughter coming in.

She smiled and held Li Shuangwan's hand: "I'm not thinking about anything. I'm waiting for Wanwan to pick me up. Let's go now."

When he saw the clothes she was wearing, his eyes lit up: "This dress is beautiful."

Li Shuangwan chuckled.

As soon as the mother and daughter stepped out of the door, Li Shuangwan saw Zhou Caiyao coming over. When she saw them, she knelt down and saluted: "Greetings, Madam, and Princess."

When there were no outsiders around, Zhou Caiyao didn't dare to call Zhu Anhe mother. After all, although Zhu had promised to adopt her as her adopted daughter a few days ago, the ancestral hall had not been opened and had not been announced to the public.

"Today is New Year's Eve. I have asked someone to prepare some new clothes for you. Go and try them on to see if you like them. After we come back from the palace, we will have New Year's Eve dinner together in the evening." Zhu Anhe looked at Zhou Caiyao and smiled.

Li Shuangwan looked at Zhou Caiyao coldly. She had obviously washed and dressed again after returning from Prince Heng's Mansion.

She had her hair in double buns with two red silk ribbons hanging down from them. She also had two small pearl hairpins in her hair, looking like a servant.

But the makeup on her face was exactly the same as hers.

Li Shuangwan's lips curled up slightly, knowing what she was planning.

All those attending the palace banquet today are the dragon's sons and grandsons. Zhou Caiyao must be having some inappropriate thoughts.

Or, does she want her mother to take her into the palace to meet Ling Heng?

As expected, Zhou Caiyao fell to her knees and said, "Madam, please take Caiyao with you into the palace. You can treat Caiyao as a servant."

Roman rolled his eyes silently, and didn't even look in the mirror to see what he looked like. He thought he looked a bit like the princess, and he really thought of himself as a phoenix that had flown to the top of a tree.

Bah, a pheasant can never become a true phoenix.

Li Shuangwan curled the corners of her mouth. If she didn't let Zhou Caiyao meet Ling Heng more often, how could she lead her step by step into the trap she had set?

Then he said, "Mom, I think it's okay. Sister Yao is smart and lovely. It's good to have her around to take care of her."

Seeing his daughter said so, Zhu Anhe did not disagree: "In that case, let's go. A Yao has entered the palace, so she needs to be careful with her words and actions."

Zhou Caiyao was overjoyed and responded quickly, secretly looking at her maid Leng Yue.

Leng Yue gave her an encouraging look.

Half an hour later, the carriage stopped at the palace gate, and at this moment, Ling Heng also arrived.

Seeing Roman lifting the curtain to come out, he quickly dismounted, took two quick steps to the front of the carriage, and took Li Shuangwan from Roman's hands. Only then did he realize that Li Shuangwan could be so beautiful.

Today is a family dinner, so there is no need to wear formal attire for a princess. Li Shuangwan is wearing the new dress that Gu Xingyan gave her yesterday.

Under the lavender skirt, large crabapple flowers slowly bloomed. She put on the fiery red cloak and was now bathed in the warm winter sun, as if her whole body was coated with a layer of fine golden light.

Breathtakingly beautiful.

"Awan, you look so beautiful today." Ling Heng looked at her steadily, with a smile in his eyes.

Li Shuangwan also looked at Ling Heng, her peach blossom eyes were full of tenderness and deep affection. In her previous life, she had fallen into these eyes little by little, and in the end, she was deceived and her son and family were exterminated, and she herself was turned into ashes.

"Greetings, Your Highness." Zhou Caiyao's deliberately charming voice came from behind the two of them.

Ling Heng pretended not to hear.

Zhou Caiyao lowered her head and bit her lip. When Roman saw this, he felt very happy.

Li Shuangwan pulled back her hand and turned to help Zhu Anhe: "Mom, I'll help you get out of the car."

Ling Heng hurriedly stepped forward and bowed: "Mother-in-law, I should have gone with Ah Wan to pick you up, but I was busy with official duties and couldn't get away for the time being."

Zhu Anhe smiled and said, "It's okay, Your Highness is thoughtful, let's go in."

When the few people arrived, many people had already arrived. Emperor Jingzhang, the Queen and the Crown Prince had not yet arrived. People gathered in groups of three or four to chat.

As soon as Prince Gong Ling Shijiang saw Li Shuangwan, a deep look suddenly appeared in his eyes, and he stared at her greedily.

I wonder what it would feel like to have such a wonderful person under me.

Li Shuangwan felt that disgusting gaze and turned away in disgust. She would not be able to ease the hatred in her heart unless she got rid of Ling Shijiang.

As Li Shuangwan turned sideways, Ling Shijiang saw Zhou Caiyao standing behind her.

He took a few steps forward, smiled and grabbed Zhou Caiyao's hand: "How come I haven't seen this girl before? She looks very similar to Princess Heng, she is a wonderful person."
