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

Li Shuangxi looked up in astonishment: "What, what? Second brother, what did you say?"

"Zhi'er's body has been weak since she was young. She simply cannot bear the burden of raising a child. She will die when she is about to give birth. The reason why His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wants to appoint Miaomiao as the Crown Princess is just..."

"Li Dai Tao Jiang!" Li Shuangxi blurted out.

Li Yuanming nodded: "Miao Miao's methods are dishonorable. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not a man who is easy to talk to. It is impossible for him to let her live in peace. How could he easily canonize a person who plotted against him as his legal wife?"

Li Shuangxi was really scared. Her body couldn't stop shaking and the panic in her heart was getting stronger and stronger.

"Li Shuangmiao died in childbirth, leaving two lives behind. Only Zhier's child can become the legitimate son of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

"We will also feel guilty towards our Li family's second branch because of this. This child is Zhi'er's child and also has the blood of our Li family's second branch. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will naturally treat us well."

"From now on, our second branch no longer needs to rely on their first branch to make a living. When we go out, others will not only think of our uncle, the Duke of the State, when they see us, as they do now."

"But you, what have you done!"

"Third sister, there are too many complicated things here. I have calculated everything step by step. As long as we wait for Li Shuangzhi to give birth and Li Shuangmiao to die of dystocia, everything will go smoothly."

Li Yuanming raised his head in annoyance and sighed: "You are so smart and you interfered. All my plans are ruined. Do you know that you ruined my and my father's plan?"

"You've ruined all of this!"

"You are trying to manipulate His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and use him to kill Li Shuangyan? His scheming and planning are not as good as even one-tenth of what we have in the Second House combined."

"How can you be so worthy of your title? You don't know your own limitations!"

Li Shuangxi knelt down in front of Li Yuanming, grabbed his clothes and cried for help.

"Second brother, I was wrong. Xier really knows that I was wrong. Please find a way to save me. Save me, second brother, I don't want to die yet..."

Li Yuanming shook off Li Shuangxi's hand: "It's too late to be scared now! No one can save you!"

He really didn't want to care about her life or death.

Li Shuangxi was not willing to let go of this last straw of life. He took two steps forward on his knees and kowtowed several times.

"Brother, I don't want to die. Please save me. I can do anything you want me to do. I can do anything. Please, brother, save me..."

Crying: "I don't want to die yet..."

Li Yuanming took a deep breath, and then another deep breath.

Logically speaking, Li Shuangxi ruined his plan, so her death was not a pity.

However, the second branch of the Li family now only has one daughter, Li Shuangxi.

Minister Lu has already taken a liking to her.

While the prince treated them as chess pieces, he also wanted to be the one playing the chess.

The second branch of the Li family cannot tie the crown prince alone with one hemp rope.

My father was right. Even a cunning rabbit has three burrows, let alone humans.

You have to leave yourself a way out.

Li Yuanming had his own plans.

Now the six major ministries, the Ministry of Personnel, the Ministry of Works, the Ministry of War, and the Ministry of Rites all support the Fifth Prince Ling Yan.

Although Ling Heng is the crown prince, he only has the support of the Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of Justice.

Before the overall situation is determined, it remains unknown who will be the winner in the end.

Moreover, the Fifth Prince's wife's father, Marquis of Zhennan Xi Wenquan, controls the Northwest Military Affairs Camp of 200,000 troops.

Its power cannot be shaken.

Five thousand imperial guards are nothing but an ant trying to shake a tree compared to an army of two hundred thousand.

If Minister Lu immediately took the girl back home, as long as Li Shuangxi could win his heart, their second branch would still have a chance to turn things around.

Thinking of this, Li Yuanming reached out and pulled Li Shuangxi up: "Are you really willing to do everything?"

Li Shuangxi nodded in panic: "I am willing, I am willing to do anything, I just hope that my second brother can save me."

"Okay, in that case, I will help you one last time. Remember, if you can't handle this matter well, I can't do anything about it."

Li Shuangxi quickly wiped away her tears with her sleeves and listened to what Li Yuanming said in her ear.

After hearing this, Li Shuangxi's face changed: "Second brother, do you want me to enter the Lu Mansion as soon as possible to deal with Lu Ziqi's wife Jiang?"

Li Yuanming nodded: "Lu Ziqi follows His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince and is protected by him. Even if the Crown Prince knows that you did this, he will never reach out to the backyard of the Lu Mansion."

Li Shuangxi thought about it and agreed.

The Crown Prince and the Fifth Prince can be said to be incompatible.

Although the Crown Prince is now the heir to the throne, the Fifth Prince's people occupy most of the important officials in the court, and his father-in-law is the Marquis of Zhennan who holds a large number of troops.

After Li Shuangwan's death, the bond between him and his uncle, the Duke of Zhenguo, was severed.

Seeing that she seemed to have figured it out, Li Yuanming said, "If you want to have a place in Lu Ziqi's heart and no one can shake your position, you must have enough ability to protect yourself."

"There is a very favored concubine in Lu Ziqi's backyard, named Xi Yunjuan, who is the concubine sister of Xi Wenquan, the Marquis of Zhennan. Xi Wenquan has only this one sister, and he has always treated her like his own biological sister."

Li Shuangxi had never heard of this matter.

"If she hadn't been rescued by Lu Ziqi a few years ago, and Lu Ziqi had already married at that time, and they had had physical contact, she would have had to enter the mansion as a concubine. With her status, it's impossible for her to be someone's concubine."

After listening to what Li Yuanming said, Li Shuangxi already understood the general idea.

Lu Ziqi's wife, Jiang, was domineering by nature. She either beat or scolded Lu Ziqi's concubines in the backyard, but she did not dare to deal with Xi.

But Xi couldn't surpass her, and for so many years, she had always been relegated to the position of a concubine.

She entered the mansion to help Xi family deal with Jiang family and make Jiang family disappear from this world completely.

Li Shuangxi gradually calmed down. She was able to use Liu to make Madam Jiang be stung by a poisonous wasp like that, and she heard that the case had been closed and she was not exposed at all.

Then, once she enters the Lu Mansion, she can use the help of other concubines to kill Jiang!

The key is to see how you do it, and at the same time to distance yourself from this matter completely.

Although Li Yuanming did not say it explicitly, she knew that if this matter could not be accomplished, her second brother would no longer care about her life or death.

Li Shuangxi nodded: "Okay, second brother, I can do it."

Li Yuanming was satisfied: "Remember, this matter must not be known to any third person."

"remember."

Li Yuanming looked at her and said, "Even the matter of Li Shuangmiao and Li Shuangzhi must not be known to any third person."

"Okay, I see."

"Okay, leave the rest to me. Don't go anywhere or do anything these days. Just stay in the mansion. I'll let you know if there's any news from Lord Lu."

Li Shuangxi hummed and watched Li Yuanming leave.

My second brother should be able to help me.
