Reborn to be a mistress, she went crazy killing the legitimate daughter

After everything was arranged, Shen Yiran returned to the mansion. Nuandong ran in happily holding a letter: "The Marquis has news!"

When Shen Yiran heard this, he immediately went out and took it, then opened it and read it while standing there.

Bo Jinnian has already arrived in Liangcheng and is now ready to start disaster relief. He has also discovered some things in Liangcheng and hopes that she can help investigate.

Shen Yiran looked at it and immediately opened the second page. Liangcheng was the hometown of the former prime minister Liang Lao. No one had mentioned him since he resigned from office.

In his letter, Bo Jinnian hinted that she should investigate people related to the Liang family. Could it be that he had discovered something about the former prime minister?

Shen Yiran put away the page written separately at the back, put the previous letter away, and took it to show the old lady.

The old lady felt relieved after seeing this, and said to Shen Yiran: "Thank you for your hard work. Jinnian was very busy in Kyoto, and now he has to go on a business trip. I can't bear the fact that you and your wife are separated for a long time!"

Shen Yiran blushed slightly when he heard this, and lowered his head and smiled: "What are you talking about, old lady? We are not newlyweds, how can we still want to be together all day long?"

The old nanny who was listening laughed and said, "What the old lady is thinking about is this. The first and second wives both have children now, but your third wife has not made any move yet. You want to have a grandchild again!"

Shen Yiran covered his cheek with a handkerchief and lowered his head shyly.

Unexpectedly, Xu came in holding the child. After hearing this, she raised the corners of her lips and said with a smile, "That's right. My sister-in-law and my third brother have been married for several years, how come there is no movement at all? I think we should call a doctor to take a look!"

Bai Zhi frowned immediately after hearing this: "My wife is busy all day long, but she is not exhausted. She is in good health!"

Xu placed the child on her lap, exclaimed with a smile, "What do you mean by that? I remember when the old lady took me out to burn incense and pray to Buddha, and then we got Hong'er, you can give it a try."

This sentence reminded the old lady, and she immediately turned to Shen Yiran and said, "That's right, now that the child is born, it's time to fulfill the wish. Why don't we go together?"

When Xu heard this, she snorted in her heart. If Shen Yiran hadn't been mentioned, would the old lady still have thought of fulfilling her vow?

Although she had already sent people there, she did not say anything at this moment, but instead encouraged them to go.

Shen Yiran knew that Xu's enthusiasm must be a lie, but it was difficult for him to refuse, so he agreed.

The next day, several carriages and all the female members of the marquis's family set out and headed towards the mountain.

It was a drizzling autumn rain and a cold, gray sky. Xu dressed Hong'er in many clothes, fearing that he would catch a cold, but the child ended up sweating all over.

After we got up the mountain, it got even colder. The child was sweating and felt unwell the whole day when he was blown by the cold wind.

The wet nurse followed the child into the temple with her arms in her arms. The child was just sleeping and no one noticed anything wrong. She happened to meet the wife of the Minister of War, Qi Li, and the wife of the Vice Minister of Personnel, Cao Mu, here.

The two families came with their daughters to burn incense. When they met the old lady and the women of the marquis's mansion coming, they naturally came up to greet them.

"You are an old lady who has both good fortune and longevity. What else can you ask the Buddha for?"

The relationship between Qi Li and the Marquis's Mansion was special, so they spoke casually and joked with each other.

The old lady took Madam Qi Li's hand and said with a smile, "I heard that Madam Qi's daughter gave birth to a boy the other day. Are you here to fulfill your wish today?"

Qi Li's daughter came forward to pay her respects. She was married to Chen Long, the deputy commander of the imperial guards. It was said that the couple had a very good relationship, so her family was naturally very satisfied.

When Mrs. Qi Li heard the old lady say this, she couldn't stop smiling, which made Mrs. Cao Mu next to her look a little boring.

Everyone knows that the daughter of the Cao family married into the Prince Xing's mansion, but it was rumored that the couple were not getting along well. Now she came to the temple probably to pray for a child.

Shen Yiran stood at the back, looking at the two ladies. Prince Xing had a very good relationship with the former Prime Minister Chai Yuguan. If he really wanted to get close to them, now was his chance.

Cao Mu's daughter Cao Yuqin was standing nearby, looking very impatient. Shen Yiran stepped forward and deliberately said, "Sister, I heard from the young master here that the begonias in the backyard are very beautiful. Shall we go over and take a look?"

Rong Qingqing brought Tuan Tuan with her just to pray for a good marriage, and now they haven't even burned incense yet, so they refuse to leave. Xu also has to fulfill a vow, so naturally she can't leave either, and neither of them argues with Shen Yiran.

Cao Yuqin was complaining with others here and was very unhappy. When she heard Shen Yiran's invitation, she immediately agreed.

The two of them walked slowly in the back garden. Cao Yuqin looked at the fallen leaves in the autumn frost with a depressed look on her face. No matter what topic Shen Yiran talked about, she had no interest in answering.

At this moment, three men suddenly came out from the courtyard. They were dressed in gorgeous clothes and wore jade crowns on their heads. They were obviously young men from wealthy families.

People like this come to the Guanyin Temple naturally to hunt for beauties.

After wandering around to the backyard, I happened to run into Shen Yiran and Cao Yuqin.

The three of them immediately looked at him with deadly eyes.

"Hey, ladies, you want to go around the garden. I am not very talented, but I know where the best view is, so I volunteered to lead the way for you ladies!"

Shen Yiran was not afraid. Cao Yuqin had a bad temper. She immediately raised her eyebrows, glared at him with her almond eyes, and scolded him, "How dare you! You are blocking our way!"

When the three heard this, they immediately looked at each other and laughed: "Madam, what you said is strange. This road is so wide, when did we block the road?"

"Who do you think you are? How dare you talk to us? Come here!"

The people following were all maids, so even if they were called, no one could step forward to arrest the person.

After Cao Yuqin shouted, she saw only a few maids coming up timidly, and she was furious: "Fools, you dare not go up, why don't you go back and call for help?"

Hearing her reminder, a maid immediately ran back, but she didn't expect that the three men were hiding. One of them flew up, somersaulted in the air and landed in front of the maid who reported the news.

"We are all gentlemen. If you say that, won't it just cause more misunderstandings? Let's just stay here!"

As he said this, he swung his hand and hit the maid on the neck, and the maid fainted on the ground!

"How ridiculous! Do you know who we are?"

The three of them looked at each other and laughed, then surrounded them.

“I don’t know, but it’s not important.”

Shen Yiran had been watching them coldly, wanting to know the three people's intentions. At this moment, he spoke up: "One of us is the Crown Prince's Consort, and the other is the Marquis's wife. If you dare to touch us, aren't you afraid of losing your life?"

Cao Yuqin nodded immediately: "That's right, they will come to find us soon, let's see what you can do!"

The three men were not afraid after hearing Shen Yiran's words, but moved closer.

"Why not just take a walk together?"

As they spoke, they reached out to grab people. Shen Yiran immediately protected Cao Yuqin behind him: "Don't move, we will go with you!"

The three nodded and said, "You are quite sensible, let's go!"

Shen Yiran protected Cao Yuqin and was forced all the way to the back mountain, where he saw a horse-drawn carriage.

"Get up!"

Cao Yuqin knew that there was no way to retreat after getting on the carriage, so she was unwilling to leave. She immediately pounced on him and started fighting, but was caught and knocked unconscious in an instant.

"Does this lady also want to take action?"
