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

Li Shuangwan was too lazy to talk nonsense with him, nor did he want to say a word to such a person. He turned around, squatted down, and handed the snacks and water in his hand to Hu Shuyi: "Don't worry, I rescued you, eat something to fill your stomach first."

The child must have been extremely hungry. He snatched the snack from Li Shuangwan's hand, turned away and started to eat voraciously, ignoring the three people who were arguing with each other.

Cui Jingyu crossed his arms and glanced at the two people, one big and one small, on the ground: "Does the Princess Heng want to take the son of the culprit back to the Heng Palace?"

Li Shuangwan's eyes darkened: "Don't bother Young Marquis Cui."

Cui Jingyu stretched out his hand, seemingly not noticing the sarcasm in her eyes: "Why don't you give him to me and I'll protect him?"

Li Shuangwan sneered: "Leave it to you? Leave it to you to ask Emperor Jingzhang for credit in exchange for your bright future?"

"Or maybe Young Marquis Cui is so confident that everyone in the Marquis of Jing'an is a magnanimous gentleman who is willing to protect the son of a criminal who has just been sentenced by the emperor?"

She didn't trust anyone in the Marquis of Jing'an's mansion. In her previous life, they all knew that her father was wrongly accused, but they still abandoned him without hesitation, regardless of their decades of friendship.

She admitted that she was at fault at the beginning, but the two of them were not close friends to begin with, and the so-called engagement was only verbal, and not even one of the six ceremonies had been performed.

Ying passed Cui Jingyu and walked in front of Li Shuangwan. He suddenly stretched out his hand to her. His pair of phoenix eyes sparkled even in the dark night. His eyes were focused on Li Shuangwan's face: "Leave it to me."

"You? You have a place to put him? Do you know who he is?" Li Shuangwan looked in disbelief at the man in front of him who had draped the night over himself and kept the bone-chilling cold out.

Ying nodded: "Yes, I have a place to put him. It doesn't matter who he is. I will protect anyone you want to protect."

Li Shuangwan's irritable heart was calmed by these words when she faced Cui Jingyu. She put away all the thorns on her body and asked Hu Shuyi: "Are you willing?"

Hu Shuyi opened his big tearful eyes. What he wanted most was to be with this beautiful sister who had a beauty mole between her eyebrows.

"Sister, I want to follow you, not these two uncles."

Cui Jingyu was both angry and amused: "Why is she the elder sister and we are the uncle?"

Hu Shuyi looked at Li Shuangwan pitifully.

Li Shuangwan thought about the child whom she had never met, and thought that he should also have such a pair of beautiful eyes.

Ying's cold voice came: "You can't follow her. You can only choose one of us."

Hu Shuyi pursed his lips in grievance, looked at Cui Jingyu who was leaning beside him with a sword in his arms and a cynical look on his face, and then looked at the masked man.

Slowly he stretched out his hand towards Ying: "Yes, I do. I'll go with you, uncle."

Cui Jingyu laughed out of anger again: "Hey, you little bastard, how can I be inferior to this person?"

Hu Shuyi was so scared that he shrank back into Li Shuangwan's arms: "You, you just pointed a sword at my sister."

Cui Jingyu: "I..."

Ying took a step forward and pulled Hu Shuyi out of Li Shuangwan's arms: "Don't worry, Miss Li, I will protect him."

Li Shuangwan nodded.

She didn't know who Ying was, but she just believed in him.

Cui Jingyu raised his eyebrows at Ying, smacked his lips, and muttered softly: "Miss Li..."

Seeing Li Shuangwan was about to leave, Cui Jingyu called her: "Hey, you..."

Li Shuangwan turned around and looked at Cui Jingyu coldly: "Young Marquis Cui, I hope that from now on, you and I will never meet again."

"You don't care about the women of the Hu family?"

Li Shuangwan didn't even turn his head.

Cui Jingyu smiled silently and put down his outstretched hand. It was good not to see each other again.

He owed her this.

It’s been paid off, it’s been paid off a long time ago.

When the shadow passed by him, Cui Jingyu suddenly stopped him with his scabbard: "I know who you are, Gu Jiu..."

Ying drew out his knife in a flash, his eyes suddenly turned cold as ice, and he gave off a dangerous aura. Even Hu Shuyi, who was holding his hand, trembled a little, and timidly called out to Li Shuangwan in front of him, "Sister."

Li Shuangwan walked back and looked at Cui Jingyu: "What are you going to do?"

Cui Jingyu ignored her, looked at Ying, and said, "Do you dare to say a few words between men?"

Ying handed Hu Shuyi to Shu Wenbo who came with him and stood behind them: "Take him back."

Shu Wenbo nodded and instantly disappeared into the night.

Li Shuangwan watched Ying and Cui Jingyu walk away. He didn't know what they said, but in a moment, Ying came back.

But his whole aura was completely different.

Cui Jingyu still looked as arrogant as if he was the best in the world. He held the sword and raised his chin provocatively towards Li Shuangwan.

Ying walked over, and his tall body blocked Cui Jingyu completely, and Li Shuangwan's sight fell on him.

"Women of the Hu family, what are your plans?" Ying asked.

Li Shuangwan had already thought about this matter when he was in the carriage this afternoon.

"Well, let them suffer for a few days first, so that they know how difficult life is, and see clearly which people around them can be called human beings and which are worse than animals. Later, when I teach them to be self-reliant, they will be able to stand on their own feet."

Don’t let it be like in the previous life, where no woman could stand on her own and the huge Hu family declined in just a few years.

Just as Ying and Li Shuangwan reached the corner, they saw a figure entering the palace.

Li Shuangwan's heart skipped a beat. It was Ling Heng. Why did he return to the palace so late?

"Ling Heng will definitely go to Lexiaoyuan. We must get back to the room before him." Li Shuangwan muttered softly.

"I'll take you back." As soon as the man finished speaking, he put his strong arms around her slender waist and leaped up.

Li Shuangwan was startled and instinctively hugged the other person's neck tightly.

The night was bright. Although the man in front of him was wearing a mask, his jawline was extremely handsome. Coupled with his pair of phoenix eyes, one could not tell what kind of skin he had underneath.

Just as Li Shuangwan expected, Ling Heng went straight to Le Xiaoyuan after entering the mansion.

Just as he raised his hand to push the door, he heard the heavy breathing of a man and a woman from inside.

Ling Heng's eyes turned cold and depressed. He clenched his fists and finally turned and left.

Inside the house, Li Shuangwan took two steps back and said awkwardly, "Thank you."

Ying pursed her lips and said, "I, I'm leaving now. Miss Li, have a good rest."

"Ah."

Lying in bed, Li Shuangwan tossed and turned, unable to sleep.

Emperor Jingzhang probably didn't expect that a few years later, the crown prince Ling Ji, whom he appointed, would be fed up with being the heir to the throne for too long and would develop murderous intentions to replace him.

Two years later, he sent a Taoist priest who made an elixir of "immortality" into the palace. The priest mixed poison into the elixir. As long as he took the elixir for two years, the poison would slowly eat away at his internal organs, and eventually no medicine could cure him.
