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

At the same time, Haitangyuan.

Zhu Anhe looked Li Shuangwan up and down many times: "You have become thinner and darker. My Wanwan has suffered."

Li Huaiying said anxiously: "Madam, Yanyan, call me Yanyan."

"Yes, Yanyan. Lao Ying, why don't we open the ancestral hall tomorrow and write the name Li Shuangyan in the family tree."

Li Huaiying nodded. If it wasn’t too late today, he would have wanted to open the ancestral hall right now.

Li Shuangwan hugged her mother and nestled in her arms: "Mom, I'm fine. I'm doing well in Daliang. Xing, ahem, His Highness the Ninth Prince is also very good to me. And my adoptive father, adoptive mother, and elder brother, they are all very good to me."

Li Yuanqiao snorted twice. Isn’t he Shu Wenbo, the son of Duke Shu of Daliang?

Big brother, big brother, call me so affectionately.

I am your elder brother.

Li Shuangwan coquettishly pulled Li Yuanqiao's sleeve and said with a giggle: "Of course, the best one is still my brother. Yanyan's brother is the best brother in the world."

Li Yuanqiao then raised his eyebrows and was satisfied. This was good enough.

Li Huaiying opened his arms: "Come, my daughter, let daddy hug you."

Li Shuangwan threw herself into Li Huaiying's arms, sniffling and saying, "Dad, I miss you so much."

Li Huaiying raised his beard and hummed softly.

But his eyebrows couldn't help but raise: "I didn't see how much you missed Dad. I saw that you were having so much fun in Daliang that you forgot about us."

Especially with that brat, the Ninth Prince of Daliang, they were flirting with each other. Don't think he didn't notice it.

"No way. Yesterday, I was on the second floor watching you go into the city. You don't know how much I wanted to throw myself into your arms."

Li Huaiying thought of something: "Oh, Yanyan, last year, Father Dongyue heard that Master Sanqing accepted a female disciple. But you were still in Shengjing City at that time, how could this be..."

Zhu Anhe rolled her eyes at her husband and said, "How stupid! Master Sanqing is an accomplished monk, so he must be able to tell fortunes."

Several people nodded in unison.

A charlatan is naturally different.

I have to thank him very much for the opportunity to meet him.

"By the way, Yanyan, have you really taken Master Sanqing as your teacher?"

Li Shuangwan nodded: "Yes, that's right. Master also gave me a booklet filled with his life's work and asked me to practice martial arts according to it."

Li Huaiying gave a thumbs up: "The old charlatan is good. He is worried that your martial arts will be recognized by the prince, right? Tsk tsk, he even thought of this. Not bad."

Li Yuanqiao looked at his sister in front of him and couldn't understand why Ling Heng didn't like her even though she was so nice.

"Is Ling Heng blind? He likes Li Shuangzhi from the second house, but not you, my sister. I suspect that he is either out of his mind or kicked by a donkey."

If it were in the past, Li Huaiying would definitely scold his son.

But now, there is no need.

Speaking of this, Li Shuangwan has always had something to ask.

She looked at her father: "Dad, do you remember what you said to the emperor in the imperial study seventeen years ago on Ling Heng's fifth birthday?"

In her previous life, before Ling Heng came to burn her, she asked him why the entire Li family had made great contributions to help him ascend the throne, but he massacred all 381 members of her Li family.

She dared not forget a single word of what Ling Heng said to her at that time.

He said: "Why? Oh, Li Shuangwan, why don't you go to the underworld and ask your father. Li Huaiying, what did you say to my father on my fifth birthday!"

"I have lived like walking on thin ice for the past ten years, all thanks to him!"

Li Huaiying scratched his head. The rough man fell into deep thought because of his daughter's words.

Several people stared at him.

After a while, he raised his head and shook his head: "I don't remember, I can't remember, it's been so long, who can remember. Yanyan, why are you talking about this suddenly? Is this related to Ling Heng?"

Li Shuangwan nodded: "I accidentally heard his conversation with Sipo. He said that if he hadn't overheard the conversation between his father and Emperor Jingzhang outside the imperial study on his fifth birthday."

Li Shuangwan looked at his father solemnly: "He wouldn't have been neglected by Emperor Jingzhang since that time, and his mother wouldn't have been sent to Qiyun Palace, where she spent more than ten years of dark days being bullied and humiliated."

Several people's expressions changed.

Zhu Anhe was even more furious: "He is slandering me. How could it be possible? Your father is such a man. How could he slander his son in front of a father?"

Li Yuanqiao said, "I think he clearly knew you were eavesdropping outside, so he made it up."

Li Huaiying scratched his head. Did this happen? Why didn't he remember it?

Hasn’t the Emperor always disliked the Crown Prince and his mother?

From the moment Ling Heng was born, it was clear how much the Emperor doted on mother and son.

Does it matter what I said to him?

The reason he was named the crown prince was because so many things had happened in the past six months. Several of the emperor's sons had died, been disabled, or were crippled.

Zhu Anhe's face looked unhappy: "Yan Yan, you mean..."

Li Shuangwan nodded: "Ling Heng deliberately lured me to marry her, and he had many ulterior motives."

"You say." The three of them looked at her.

Li Yuanqiao frowned. His sister was so cheerful and lively when she was in the northwest grassland. When she wanted to ride a horse, she would jump on it. When she wanted to drink, she would take him to the military camp and have a drinking contest with some generals.

Even when he laughed, he did it with all eight teeth showing.

It's nothing like now, where he is cautious at every step, planning everything, and there is no trace of smile on his face.

The teenage girl has grown into a scheming woman in her forties or fifties.

Ling Heng is really a piece of shit.

Li Shuangwan stood up from the chair, walked around the room a few times, then stopped and looked at his parents and brother who were sitting there.

Outside the Haitang Courtyard were soldiers brought by his father. Not even a fly could fly in, let alone the possibility of their family's conversation being overheard by others.

Speak slowly.

"First, he is not favored by Emperor Jingzhang, but he is very ambitious and wants this country. After looking around, he took a fancy to the 300,000 troops in Dad's hands."

"So he led me into his trap. I had just arrived in Shengjing City and didn't know how sinister people were. It was also my own stupidity that tied our Li family's eldest branch to Ling Heng."

"Second, Li Shuangzhi was pregnant. When she was young, her second uncle threw her into an icy pool because of the prophecy of the Imperial Observatory. Although she did not die, she suffered from a lifelong illness."

"Even if she is pregnant, the fetus in her belly needs to be saved with the blood of her loved ones."

"And I became his best target. But he wanted the military power of our Li family, and he hated our Li family's eldest branch because of what my father said to Emperor Jingzhang."

"So, he asked Gu Xingyan to consummate the marriage with me on his behalf. Not only did he humiliate me and our General's Mansion, but he also achieved his goal of using the child in my belly."
