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

Gu Xingyan was still holding a plate of dessert in his hand, leaning lazily to one side, watching the two siblings gesture, and occasionally putting a piece of dessert into his mouth.

The white fox lay on his shoulder, occasionally raising its eyelids to take a look.

In half an hour, Li Yuanqiao was knocked down several times.

Unable to beat his sister, Li Yuanqiao walked up to Gu Xingyan angrily and said, "Hey, Your Highness the Ninth Prince, our dim sum is so delicious, don't you get tired of it even if you come here every day?"

Gu Xingyan stuffed a piece into his mouth and did not forget to throw a piece to Li Shuangwan who was smiling at the two of them.

He raised the snack in his hand and said, "Well, it's good. It's really delicious. It's much better than the food in the inn."

"I will double the number of guards in the mansion in a moment!"

"Who are you? Come out!" Li Yuanqiao's personal soldiers suddenly shouted.

When they looked towards the gate of the courtyard, they saw a woman in a green lotus-colored dress and double buns, slowly appearing in their sight with a food box in her hand.

The woman was very bright, with fair skin and delicate features. Although she was half a head shorter than Li Shuangwan, she was very well-proportioned and looked like a beautiful girl from a small family.

The kind that men would cherish and love.

At this moment, she bit her lips lightly, her wet eyes were slightly red, and her eyelashes were a little misty, as if she was frightened by the shout from the personal guard just now, and she was looking at Li Yuanqiao with a wronged face: "Cousin, cousin..."

Li Yuanqiao frowned: "What cousin? I don't know you."

Gu Xingyan raised an eyebrow at Li Shuangwan.

Li Shuangwan glared at him unhappily.

Fang Yuqian's face turned red after hearing what Li Yuanqiao said. The two lines of tears in her eyes suddenly fell down. She looked so pitiful. She lowered her head and stood there, tears dropping down her face.

It's as if I've suffered a great injustice.

Li Shuangwan said calmly, "I think the girl should have come from Xixiang City the day before yesterday. She is the old lady's niece, Miss Fang Yuqian, right?"

Fang Yuqian raised her tearful eyes and looked at Li Shuangwan in surprise: "Princess, do you know me?"

Li Shuangwan just wanted to sneer in her heart. She knew him too well. He was the culprit who forced her brother to commit suicide in her previous life and caused her mother to die of depression. How could she forget him?

With such a pitiful appearance, she first used despicable means, got some poisonous drugs and aphrodisiac incense from somewhere, climbed into her brother's bed, and forced her brother to marry her.

Later, because her brother was often in the military camp or out suppressing bandits and spent little time in the mansion, the woman could not stand the loneliness and hooked up with a servant in the mansion.

Later, when she was playing pranks, she was caught by her mother, who had a big quarrel with her and she was so angry that she fainted on the spot.

But at that time, relying on the old lady's support, she had already firmly grasped the financial affairs of the General's Mansion and did not take her mother seriously.

He even placed his mother under house arrest in Haitangyuan during the months when his father and brother were away to suppress banditry in Liangshan.

It was during that time that my mother became somewhat insane.

During the few times she returned to the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, she was told that her mother had gone to Liangshan because she missed her brother and father.

Her mother followed them around in the northwest, and she didn't think much of it, thinking that her mother really went to Liangshan.

Moreover, at that time, she was unable to spare Chun Ning's time because of her health condition, and had no idea what was happening in the backyard of the General's Mansion.

Little did they know that their mother at that time was suffering every day in the backyard.

The old lady and this woman kept everything going on in the mansion a secret.

Until the father and brother came back from suppressing the bandits, this slutty woman teamed up with the old lady to lie to them, saying that the mother forgot to open the window when she burned charcoal for heating at night, and when the servants found her the next day, she had become like this crazy person.

With my father and brother around, the old woman and this woman could not find an opportunity to attack my mother. So my mother gradually came to her senses and told my father and brother the whole story.

Only then did she realize that such a big thing had happened during the months when her father and brother were away from home.

And her mother had never been to Liangshan, and had been waiting for her to be rescued in the backyard.

She knelt in front of her mother, crying and slapping herself.

But, by then, it was too late.

The elder brother was so angry that he picked up his sword and killed the woman. He also regretted the ridiculous thing he had done. He married such a woman, which made the family restless and his mother half crazy and committed suicide.

When the mother learned of her brother's death, she vomited blood, fell seriously ill, and eventually died of depression.

All of this was thanks to this woman named Fang Yuqian, how could she dare to forget!

Li Shuangwan smiled faintly: "The old lady's family, Miss Fang, arrived two days ago. I guess everyone in the Zhenguo Mansion knows about it except for the people in our eldest house."

Fang Yuqian burst into tears: "Are you blaming me for not going to greet my uncle and aunt first?"

"I'm sorry, it's Yuqian's fault. I'll go and apologize to my uncle and aunt right away. And please don't blame my great aunt, cousin. It's all my fault."

Li Shuangwan's face was cold and her tone was indifferent: "I am not worthy of being called cousin by Miss Fang. My grandfather never had a daughter, not even a concubine's daughter, so he never had any nieces. This is not the place for you to come, please go back."

"I, I just made some snacks for our Xixiang City. I saw that the princess and the general were practicing martial arts and might be tired and thirsty, so, that's why..."

Fang Yuqian shed tears, and her petite appearance made her look so pitiful.

Even Li Yuanqiao felt a little compassion and took the food box from her hand: "Thank you Miss Fang, we accept your kindness, but this place is where we practice martial arts, it's not your place to come, let's go."

Fang Yuqian raised her tearful eyes and looked at the young general opposite her.

The general was wearing only a single garment at this time, and the sweat from practicing martial arts made the clothes stick tightly to his body, outlining a strong waist and well-defined figure.

He has an upright figure and deep facial features.

Fang Yuqian's face immediately turned red, and she lowered her head, not daring to look.

Li Yuanqiao noticed that her gaze lingered on him for a while, feeling somewhat displeased and frowning slightly.

He took his outer garment from the side and put it on quickly.

Gu Xingyan raised his eyelids and said, "Someone, throw these outsiders out for me."

Fang Yuqian had heard a lot about Li Yuanqiao from the old lady, so she had been staring at Li Yuanqiao since she entered the room.

Now, when I heard this cold voice, I saw a man leaning lazily against the side of the pillar.

This man couldn't hide his noble aura at all, not to mention that he just called himself "the king" when he spoke.

Fang Yuqian's head suddenly buzzed and she was stunned.
