The fake daughter of a fallen ghost is reborn

After all the wedding affairs were concluded, the Fu family should have gone back home. However, since the wedding, Fu Rongxin had fallen ill briefly, so Fu Ling kept her there on the pretext of seeing a doctor. The doctor in Huajing was said to be knowledgeable and it would be beneficial for her condition if she stayed.

But this caused Xue Zhiyi to be troubled by one thing.

Because Xue Ruoyu had been pregnant for just over a month, Tang Jinglei had already informed the Tang family in Jiangzhou and planned to wait until the baby was stable in Huajing before returning.

If Fu Rongxin was not there, then Xue Ruoyu would naturally have to stay. After all, the mountains are high and the roads are long, with twists and turns, which is really hard for a pregnant woman.

But Fu Rongxin had evil intentions, and Xue Zhiyi couldn't guarantee that Fu Rongxin wouldn't do anything else during the pregnancy.

Looking at the rustling autumn wind outside the window of Jiangxuexuan, Xue Zhiyi remained calm, but he had secretly made a plan in his heart: Xue Ruoyu and Fu Rongxin cannot be under the same roof.

She had to think of a way that would definitely not hurt Xue Ruoyu.

"Qiuyun." she called.

Qiu Yun then responded, "Miss, what do you want?"

"My elder sister is staying in Huajing. I am worried that I can't take good care of the people in the mansion. Please go over and take care of her for me for a while."

Qiuyun is Xue Zhiyi's person. Logically, the eldest lady has her own servants, and the lady would also make other arrangements. It would seem a bit strange for Qiuyun to go there.

But even though she was confused, she still agreed to Xue Zhiyi's meaning: "Yes."

But Xue Zhiyi suddenly grabbed her hand, his expression extremely serious: "No matter what happens, you must remember it carefully and tell me everything."

Seeing her seriousness, Qiu Yun nodded solemnly: "Yes, Qiu Yun obeys."

……

Suburbs of Beijing.

Although Zhuangzi would not let Miss Xue starve or freeze, he was certainly not as wealthy as the Xue family.

Xue Panrou looked at herself in the bronze mirror, and the mole on her chin was shaking with anger.

"I've run out of my usual ointment! This damn place is so remote, there's no shop in sight, I can't even buy some fine powder, my face has become rough!"

She grabbed a wooden comb and smashed it against the window. The window paper, which was covered with cobwebs, was already in tatters, and she smashed a hole in it.

"What a horrible place! I can't stand it! I feel itchy all over as soon as I walk in! Do you really want me to stay here for half a year?"

"Miss……"

Linglong, the maid who was sent here to serve, was still bright and beautiful when she came, but now her clothes were stained with indelible stains, and her hair had become dry and looked extremely unkempt.

But she could only be patient and carefully comfort her: "I fetch water for you to bathe every day. Now that the weather is cold, there are no mosquitoes. How can your body itch? It's just that you are irritated."

Upon hearing this, Xue Panrou flew into a rage: "I asked you to fetch some water, do you still have any complaints? You little bitch, serving me is your destiny!"

Linglong could only stammer: "How dare I?"

Xue Panrou didn't want to pay attention to her and smashed a box of cheap greasy ointment.

When he thought of that shameless bitch Xue Hanshu, who had taken her place and enjoyed the Zhao family's wealth for her, he wanted to rush back to Huajing and cut that bitch into pieces! And Xue Zhiyi, why did he send her such a precious gift?

At this moment, a maid came hurriedly to report: "Second Miss, the second young master is here!"

Xue Panrou, who was originally full of anger, suddenly smiled happily: "Is my brother coming to pick me up?"

She didn't care about her manners and ran out of the door, and saw Xue Tingliu standing next to the carriage, with his arms folded, looking at her.

"Brother!" Xue Panrou burst into tears and sobbed loudly. She ran all the way to his side: "Brother, why are you here? Are you here to take me home?"

Seeing Xue Panrou was about to hug him, Xue Tingliu clicked his tongue and pressed her head to stop her from moving: "Can I still let that old woman Fu Ling hold me back?"

He disliked this sister, but he knew the difference between them. Fu Ling wanted to bully the people under his wing? It was simply wishful thinking.

He also knew his importance in the Xue family. As long as he was willing to plead, such a small matter would not be worth mentioning.

Glancing at Xue Panrou's miserable appearance, she looked really pitiful.

He sighed: "Let's go, get in the car."

……

Xue Mansion, corridor.

From here, across the lake, you can see the eaves of the temple roof from afar.

Xue Zhiyi was a little dazed.

What did Fu Rongxin want to say when she met him in the Buddhist temple that day?

Where was Fu Rongxin when the princess fell into the water? Was she still in the Buddhist temple?

What does it have to do with the princess falling into the water?

But when she secretly went to the Buddhist temple to investigate the next day, she found nothing.

While he was in a daze, Xue Zhiyi suddenly heard a familiar voice.

Looking over, I saw that it was brother and sister Xue Tingliu and Xue Panrou. Judging from their direction, they must have just come in from the gate.

Xue Panrou really came back. I’m afraid Fu Ling will be in great pain again in the days to come.

They both saw her, too.

From a distance, I don’t know what Xue Tingliu and Xue Panrou said to each other, but Xue Panrou glared at them hatefully, then left with the servants.

However, Xue Tingliu walked towards here slowly with an inexplicably secretive look on his face.

Xue Zhiyi stood up and called out as usual, "Second brother."

Su Yue was extremely alert and stared at Xue Tingliu in front of her with great caution.

Xue Tingliu's features resembled those of Aunt Rong, with a certain softness that looked somewhat evil on a man's face, but her eyes were like a pool of water, deep and unfathomable.

"Third sister." He suddenly chuckled and explained his purpose: "I didn't realize before that Third sister is such a meticulous person."

Xue Zhiyi looked at him with innocent eyes: "I don't understand what Second Brother means."

"I've heard a lot of things. The two sisters fought to the death. It must have been the third sister's hand, right? They both suffered losses, but the third sister was able to escape unscathed. How can this method not be considered brilliant?"

Xue Tingliu's voice was gentle, even with a smile on it, but it sent a shiver down one's spine.

Xue Zhiyi knew that her second brother was not easy to deal with, but she didn't expect that he would suddenly confront her.

Certain experiences in her previous life made her feel an indescribable feeling of suffocation when facing Xue Tingliu.

"Go ahead." Xue Tingliu was still smiling, but the temperature in his eyes had turned cold. "What do you want to do?"

Xue Zhiyi smiled slowly, but his eyes unconsciously avoided him and turned slightly to the side: "I don't know what my second brother is talking about."

Xue Tingliu paced back and forth, blocking her line of sight: "You and Rou'er have always had a bad relationship, but I really didn't expect that you would go to such lengths to destroy Fourth Sister's life in order to deal with Rou'er."

Xue Zhiyi's eyebrows jumped, and her hand holding the handkerchief trembled a little.

Suddenly, she raised her face, as if she was ashamed and angry after her secret was revealed: "It is so, and it doesn't matter if it isn't? Second brother is in the Ministry of Justice now, is he going to arrest me and put me in the prison?"

Xue Tingliu has now been transferred from Linzhou to the Ministry of Justice, and will stay in Huajing in the future.

Xue Tingliu couldn't help laughing out loud, and looked at Xue Zhiyi with a more teasing look in his eyes: "Third sister, you are too suspicious. We are a family, so there is no need to say such things."

Seeing this, Xue Zhiyi's eyes turned red and he looked at him with increasingly unfriendly eyes.

Xue Tingliu just sighed slowly, took two steps closer, and under Su Yue's anxious and vigilant gaze, he lowered his voice into Xue Zhiyi's ear.

"It's a pity that no matter how clever your methods are, they are just tricks of the harem. I advise you not to treat others as fools."

After saying this, he passed by Xue Zhiyi and left.

But he didn't see that when Xue Zhiyi turned his back to him, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Her words are three-tenths true and seven-tenths false.

Just now, Xue Tingliu just wanted to test whether her purpose was just the struggle in the harem, or whether she had seen through his intention to win over the Zhao family and deliberately set up a trap to try to sabotage it.

Xue Zhiyi was not afraid that he would see through her methods. As long as he was not sure of her intentions, she would be safe.

Unfortunately, Xue Tingliu has always looked down on the women in the inner house, so even if she was suspicious, she was unwilling to believe that she, Xue Zhiyi, dared and could actually make small moves in the party struggle.
