In the twenty-first year of Tiansheng,

The twenty-eighth day of the twelfth lunar month,

The sky was gloomy and snow was falling heavily.

Lu Yi fell in the courtyard, her clothes were thin, her hair was messy, and there were bruises on her body. She was no longer breathing.

The snow quickly covered her body.

Lu Yi looked at all this and sighed.

So why was she reborn?

Die again?

In her previous life, she snatched her elder sister's marriage and married Zhan Shijun, the son of the Duke of Zhenguo.

Although I knew that the guy had a precious concubine, it is very common for men to have three wives and four concubines. How can this be considered a shortcoming?

Who knew that guy was actually such a lovesick guy!

He said that he wanted to be with that concubine for the rest of his life!

After Lu Yi got married, she stayed alone in her empty room for many years. Except for the time she saw him through the red veil during the wedding ceremony, she never saw him again until her death.

On the contrary, the poor student Li Zhuosheng, whom the eldest sister married, first passed the imperial examination and became the top scorer, and then was promoted step by step to become the prime minister. The eldest sister was awarded the first-rank imperial edict at a young age.

She is so jealous!

Originally, Li Zhuosheng should have been hers, and the first-rank imperial edict should also have been hers!

If Zhan Shijun's indifference made her depressed, then her elder sister's imperial edict made her jealous and crazy!

There is a saying that goes, jealousy makes a person unrecognizable!

Indeed,

Look, not only has Lu Yi’s face changed beyond recognition, but even her heart has been broken into pieces.

Lu Yi died of depression.

When she opened her eyes, she found herself back to the time when she was fifteen years old and was discussing marriage. This time, she would not compete with her elder sister for the marriage.

According to the original plan, she married Li Zhuosheng and her elder sister married into the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion.

But after marrying into the Li family, Lu Yi found out that they were extremely poor and had nothing in their house!

The whole family's food, drink, defecation and urination depended on her dowry.

Her father was only a fifth-rank civil servant, and the dowry he could give was not very generous.

In less than a year, Lu Yi's dowry was used up, and she often went home to beg for money.

However, Li Zhuosheng did not pass the imperial examination and become the top scholar like he did in his previous life.

Li Zhuosheng's mother, Lu Yi's mother-in-law, beat and scolded Lu Yi all day long, saying that Lu Yi was Li Zhuosheng's nemesis and that it was Lu Yi who caused Li Zhuosheng to fail to pass the imperial examination and become the top scholar.

The reason is that the fortune teller said that Li Zhuosheng is destined to be the top scholar and will definitely win the title.

Lu Yi didn't know how to refute, because Li Zhuosheng had indeed won the top prize in the imperial examination in his previous life.

Maybe, I really am the one who defeats him?

So despite the beatings and scoldings from her mother-in-law and the fanning of the flames from her sister-in-law, Lu Yi endured it all.

From then on, the Li family began to disregard her seriously. When she started to curse, the whole family would scold her at the same time.

Once the fight started, the whole family joined in.

Today, just because the rice that Lu Yi brought back from her parents' home was not enough for them to eat the Lantern Festival, the whole family joined together and beat Lu Yi to death.

Thinking back to this, Lu Yi sighed again.

"What's wrong with you, little sister? Why are you sighing?" The eldest sister's voice suddenly came.

Lu Yi looked up following the voice and saw her elder sister with a graceful figure and pretty face walking towards her.

My eldest sister has been married for so many years, but she is still so young and beautiful. What is she doing here?

To see her off for the last time?

No, if she was coming to see me off for the last time, then my elder sister shouldn’t be able to see me, and shouldn’t be able to hear me sigh!

"Why aren't you speaking, sister? Don't you like the Prince of Zhenguo?" the eldest sister Lu Hui asked again.

The crown prince of Zhenguo?

Lu Yi looked around carefully. This was not the Li family's narrow patio, but a pavilion.

This is the pavilion in the Princess’s mansion!

Lu Yi looked at her own hands. They were as white and tender as onions, and not at all chapped like the ones she had at Li's house.

Lu Yi looked at her elder sister's dress.

She remembered that at the Spring Banquet in the fourteenth year of Tiansheng, her elder sister was wearing this dress and was favored by both Li Zhuosheng and the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo.

The Li family did not dare to compete with the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, so they chose themselves as the second best choice.

So, I was reborn again?

Why does God treat Lu Yi so well?

Give her chances again and again?

Well, this time, she must live a different life!

What is the noble son Zhan Shijun?

What poor student Li Zhuosheng?

To hell with it all!

They are not the only two men in the world. This time, I would rather remain single than have anything to do with them again!

Lu Yi looked at her elder sister, and her eyes seemed to be looking into her soul through her eyes.

Lu Yi really wanted to ask her elder sister, did she have any special powers or could perform all kinds of transformations, why did she live such a comfortable and happy life no matter which family she married into?

But she could not have a good ending.

Seeing her sister staring at her like this, Lu Hui asked, "What's wrong with you, sister?"

Lu Yi turned her eyes away from Lu Hui's face and said, "Yes, I don't like him. Although Prince Zhan is the prince of the Zhenguo Mansion, he only inherited the title because of his father and ancestors' military merits. He himself has no real ability. He idles around all day and flirts with women. I don't like such a man, and I won't marry him! I will never marry him!"

These bold words were heard by Mrs. Du, the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo.

Mrs. Du had not originally thought of choosing Lu Yi; she had her eyes on Lu Hui.

My son likes that concubine who is not presentable. He is already 20 years old, but he still refuses to get married.

He said he only wanted that concubine.

How can that work?

He is going to inherit the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion. How could the future wife of the Duke of Zhenguo come from such a place?

How could the future prince of the Duke of Zhenguo come from the belly of that insignificant person?

So Mrs. Du thought about finding a smart and steady daughter-in-law to control her son.

Now after hearing what Lu Yi said, she decided to find someone who was bold, straightforward and aggressive, so that she could compete with her son's concubine.

But the girl was very displeased with her son and might not agree to the marriage.

It was the personal nanny beside Madam Du who came up with the idea: "Madam, if you like, please ask the emperor to grant the marriage. It would be a great honor, and the Lu family would not dare to disrespect it."

Lu Fu was only a fifth-rank civil servant, so of course he dared not disrespect him.

Mrs. Du knew that this did seem like bullying, but in order to marry a capable daughter-in-law, she had to use this power!

So as soon as the Spring Banquet was over, the Lu family received the emperor's imperial decree granting marriage.

The eunuch who delivered the imperial edict had already walked away, but Lu Yi was still kneeling on the ground, reluctant to get up.

What a dog!

Is this her fate, and there is no way to escape it?

Father Lu Chen laughed and helped his little daughter up, saying, "What's wrong with Yi'er? Are you so happy that you are stupid? You don't even know how to get up?"

Lu's mother, Yan, clasped her hands together and said, "Amitabha, my son has found a good marriage. I am so happy for you!"

Stupidly happy?

A good marriage?

My parents, that is a place where people are eaten. After your daughter gets married there, it will be like a flower without sunlight or a fish without water!

However, there is no way to tell these things to my parents.

If you disobey the order, you will be beheaded.
