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

Ling Heng, who already had a gloomy face, heard this and his eyebrows jumped. He asked in a cold voice, "What's the matter?"

Butler Wu lowered his voice and said, "There was a problem with today's batch of goods. One of them ran away."

Ling Heng's face suddenly sank: "Xu Jianzhou is a loser, he can't even take care of a child!"

Butler Wu was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot: "Your Highness, this is a big deal. If the child who escaped leaks the secret, then, then what should we do..."

When Butler Wu said this, a thin layer of cold sweat suddenly broke out on his back.

Ling Heng took a deep breath, looked back at the closed door, turned around and walked away, instructing Butler Wu: "Tell Li Shuangwan that I'll be back soon."

Butler Wu bowed and said yes.

Li Shuangwan had just showered and changed into clean clothes when Yizhu came in and said, "Princess, Zhou Bo has brought someone back from the farm and is waiting outside. Do you want to see him now?"

"Where is your highness?"

"Butler Wu seems to have something to ask His Highness, and His Highness said he will be here soon."

Li Shuangwan nodded. It seemed that Ying had led Ling Heng away. She immediately said, "Take them downstairs and settle them down first. Come back in half an hour."

"Yes."

Li Shuangwan walked to the table, quickly spread out the paper, picked up the pen and dipped it in ink, took a few deep breaths, and put pen to paper. The whole letter was completed almost in one go.

She had just folded the letter and put it into the mailbox when Yizhu pushed the door open and said, "Princess, someone is waiting outside."

Li Shuangwan nodded: "Let Uncle Zhou bring the person here."

Behind Zhou Wen were a man and a woman. The man was about seventeen or eighteen years old, and the woman was about fifteen or sixteen years old.

The two men were dressed in coarse cloth and kept their heads down, not daring to look any further. They were led by Zhou Wen into Le Xiao Courtyard.

These two people are exactly the grandchildren of Old Man Chen.

The two walked up to Li Shuangwan, knelt down in front of her, and saluted respectfully: "Greetings, young lady."

Li Shuangwan took the towel handed to him by Yizhu and wiped his hands. He walked up to the two of them with a smile and helped them up.

She asked the man, "Your name is Chen Ping?"

Chen Ping hurriedly replied: "Yes, I am Chen Ping, nice to meet you, young lady."

"Can you read?"

"My grandfather taught me to read a few words when I was a child."

Yes, Old Man Chen retired from the battlefield due to injuries and worked as a centurion for a period of time, so he was naturally literate.

"Where's the horse riding?"

Chen Ping was a little embarrassed: "I can do a little, but I'm not proficient. I can barely avoid being thrown off the horse's back."

Li Shuangwan asked Yizhu to give him some silver: "Go buy a good horse. I'll give you three days to learn how to ride it. I'll need you to run outside more often in the future. If you don't have good horsemanship, it won't work."

Chen Ping's eyes lit up and he answered loudly, "Yes."

Li Shuangwan took a heavy bag of silver from Luo Man and handed it to Chen Ping: "Take this silver and use your method to recruit beggars from all over the streets of Shengjing City as your own in the shortest possible time."

Chen Ping was at a loss: "What does the princess mean?"

Li Shuangwan smiled faintly: "Beggars are the most informed."

Chen Ping suddenly understood, took the silver and nodded heavily: "Yes, I know what to do."

"The number of beggars in Shengjing City combined is not a small number. Chen Ping, you have to keep them under control and don't let anyone know."

Chen Ping straightened his back and said, "Don't worry, Princess. I will definitely be able to handle it."

"Are you Chen Rong?"

Chen Rong's face flushed and she smiled shyly: "Young lady, you have a really good memory. I, Chen Rong, have met you. I also know a few words. I learned them from my grandfather when I was a child with my brother."

She chuckled and said, "It's just riding a horse. I haven't learned it before. But I can learn it. I can learn it in three days."

Li Shuangwan smiled and nodded. Both of them could read, which was very good. "Okay, when your brother learns, let him teach you when he has time."

"Yes, thank you, princess."

She must have people she can trust around her. Chen Ping and his sister are the grandchildren of Old Man Chen and are absolutely loyal.

Unfortunately, in his previous life, Old Man Chen’s entire family was killed by Ling Heng.

"In Prince Heng's Mansion, from now on you should call me Princess, just like Yizhu and Luoman, to avoid gossip."

Yizhu died because of the word "girl" in her previous life. In this life, she cannot let anything happen to anyone around her.

The two of them pleaded guilty in a hurry.

"You two brothers and sisters will follow me from now on and do things for me. If you succeed, I will not treat you unfairly."

The brother and sister were so happy that they immediately knelt down to thank Li Shuangwan.

Li Shuangwan asked them both to get up.

"Chen Ping, from now on, I will leave all the things you need to do outside, such as what information you need to get, and what you need to do, to you."

Chen Ping immediately responded.

"Arong, Yizhu and Luoman are in charge of the affairs in my house. I am worried about not having anyone of my own in the yard. I will leave it to you from now on. Please help me keep an eye on it."

Chen Rong immediately nodded her head like a rattle: "Yes, thank you, Princess."

Yi Zhu smiled and said, "Princess, why don't you let Arong learn how to cook and make snacks from me? Zhou Bo just came back and mentioned it to me, saying that Miss Arong's dishes are very delicious."

Li Shuangwan smiled and looked at Chen Rong: "Are you willing?"

"Yes, I am willing. Thank you, Princess. I will also keep an eye on the courtyard, so please rest assured, Princess."

"Okay." Li Shuangwan said to Yizhu, "Take Arong and settle her down first. I have something to talk to Chen Ping about."

"Yes."

Yizhu and Chen Ping left first, and Zhou Wen followed them.

Li Shuangwan glanced at Luo Man, who understood and shouted to the maids in the yard, "Hey, you guys, come with me to tidy up the house over there. The princess's dowry must also be packed up and moved in. You're all standing there like wooden stakes, doing nothing."

In an instant, Li Shuangwan and Chen Ping were the only ones left in the yard.

Li Shuangwan took out the letter tube from his sleeve and said in a very low voice: "Chen Ping, there is something very important that I need you to do for me."

Chen Ping straightened his back and said, "Yes, Princess, please give me your orders."

"Please help me deliver this letter to my grandfather tomorrow, and let my grandfather find a way to deliver the letter to my father in the northwest as soon as possible."

Chen Ping took the letter and put it in his arms, nodding his head heavily: "Yes, I will hand the letter to Mr. Zhu in person, don't worry, Princess."

Li Shuangwan hummed, "After grandpa's morning court session, he will go to the Dali Temple first and return home around 9:00 p.m. You can go then."

"Yes."

There is a tradition in Northern Jin that newlyweds offer tea on the first day and burn incense at Yue Lao Temple on the second day, one to thank Yue Lao for bringing them together and the other to ask Yue Lao to bless them to live in harmony and have many children and grandchildren. On the third day, they return to their parents’ home.

Tomorrow morning, Ling Heng and she need to go to Yue Lao Temple fifty miles away. It would be most appropriate to send Chen Ping to find his grandfather at this time.

"Only you and I know about this matter. Do you understand?"

"Don't worry, Princess. I will stay up all night tonight and will keep the letter tightly in my arms so that no one can see it."

Li Shuangwan smiled and nodded. She was confident that Chen Ping could do the job.

It was already dark, and the brother and sister had just been brought back from the farm and were leaving the house overnight. It was not just possible, but certain that they would be targeted by Ling Heng's men.

This matter is too big, it must not be discovered by Ling Heng.

My grandfather has a trained falcon named Lieyan. Shengjing is about three thousand miles away from the northwest. After my parents have read the letter, and then follow her arrangements, it will take at most twenty days for the news to be transmitted back to Shengjing City and for the matter to spread in Shengjing City.

She has a lot to do in these twenty days.

It only takes five days to deliver the letter and then write back to her.

At the same time, in a remote house in the suburbs of Beijing, Ling Heng was furious at the scene in front of him.
