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

"Hongshuang, haven't my father and brother returned home yet?"

Hong Shuang shook her head: "The Duke and the Major General came back this afternoon. After learning about this, they left together. They must have gone to the army."

Li Shuangwan sat down at the table and rubbed his fingers slowly.

Since she hadn't eaten much for dinner, Chen Rong was afraid that she would be hungry at night, so she made a few plates of exquisite snacks and brought them to her.

"My Lady, I just made some snacks. I learned how to make them from the chef at Liuyue Tower. Would you like to try my cooking?"

Li Shuangwan hummed lightly, then subconsciously grabbed a piece and put it into his mouth.

Seeing that the princess had finally finished her meal, Roman quietly moved another plate of snacks towards her.

Li Shuangwan actually ate it piece by piece.

I didn't even realize how many pieces I had eaten.

There was only one thing on his mind: if the civil officials were absent from court, the government's orders would not be carried out.

But if the soldiers riot, then they will really resort to swords and the consequences will be disastrous.

There is no other good solution now. We can only wait for my father and brother to return from the military camp and then discuss countermeasures.

Not long after Chen Ping left, Nanny Cai came.

"Hey, Princess, where have you been today? I have been to your courtyard several times, but I didn't see anyone."

Li Shuangwan just glanced at her indifferently.

Roman sneered, "Madame Cai, what you said is wrong. The princess is the master. Why does the master have to report to a servant like you where she goes and when she will come back?"

Madam Cai was embarrassed by what she said. She pulled the loose skin on her face and said with a smile, "I said something wrong. Princess, please forgive me for being so magnanimous."

Li Shuangwan's tone was very cold: "Madame Cai is looking for me, is there something wrong?"

Seeing that Li Shuangwan ignored her, Aunt Cai appeared respectful on the surface, but she hated her in her heart.

The Second Young Master and the Old Lady deserve it for plotting against the First Wife.

As expected, as soon as the eldest wife gained power, everyone in the family became arrogant.

Roman was very displeased when she saw Aunt Cai take a few steps forward, so she immediately blocked Aunt Cai's way.

"That's right, Madam Cai, is there anything important that you want to talk to our princess about? If not, please go back. Our princess needs to rest."

Madam Cai's face looked very ugly. If this little girl was not a first-class maidservant beside the princess, she would say that any servant who dared to interrupt her master should be beaten to death and then sold.

"It's like this, Princess. The old lady said that the Mid-Autumn Festival will be in two days, a day for family reunion. Although all folk banquets, singing and dancing activities have to be suspended due to the death of the Crown Princess, it is still reasonable for the family to get together for a meal on Mid-Autumn Festival."

Li Shuangwan's eyes moved, but she didn't say anything, still looking at Madam Cai with a cold gaze.

She had been waiting for this day for a long time.

Seeing that Li Shuangwan did not object, Madam Cai continued, "This is also the first Mid-Autumn Festival that the Duke, his wife, and the Major General have spent in Shengjing City."

"So, the old lady's intention is to invite the in-laws as well to make the party more lively. Who knows, the Duke and his family may go back to the northwest again."

Li Shuangwan smiled faintly: "Okay, grandma is still thoughtful. In this case, please trouble grandma to personally post a message for my grandfather and grandmother."

"Oh, by the way, my eldest uncle and second uncle also returned to Shengjing two days ago. Since we want to have a great time, why not invite them all over as well, as well as my two aunts and several cousins."

“The more people, the better.”

Madam Cai knew that the old lady wished that as many people as possible would come to witness the ceremony. Unfortunately, due to the death of the Crown Princess, she could not invite all the noble ladies in Shengjing City to come and witness the ceremony.

But having the Zhu family around is enough.

Hearing what Li Shuangwan said, he immediately smiled and said, "The princess is really thoughtful. I will go back and talk to the old lady."

"Did my parents tell me?"

Cai Ma smiled and said, "Of course I went to inform the Duke and the Madam first. The Madam said that the princess should also learn how to be the head of the household, so she asked this old servant to come and tell you as well."

"Okay, then I'll have to trouble Madam Cai to go to Haitang Courtyard again and tell my mother what I just said."

"Yes."

As soon as Aunt Cai left, Roman pouted, "Princess, the old lady definitely has no good intentions. I've never heard of her inviting her in-laws to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival. She must be planning something bad again."

Li Shuangwan's eyes were cold: "Hong Shuang."

Hong Shuang stepped forward: "Princess."

Li Shuangwan whispered something in Hongshuang's ear.

Hongshuang's eyes flashed, she said yes, and left.

"Princess, what are you and Sister Hongshuang talking about? Why are you so mysterious?"

"How are you doing with the moves that Hong Shuang taught you yesterday?"

When Roman heard this, he immediately became dispirited. He didn't dare to ask any more questions and just went to practice his moves obediently.

At this moment, Li Shuangwan's eyes were full of murderous intent.

In my previous life, it was this Mid-Autumn Festival.

The old lady Fang teamed up with Fang Yuqian to plot against her brother.

The brother who was deeply poisoned by the love incense and Fang Yuqian were locked in a room.

The poison of the aphrodisiac is the most deadly aphrodisiac in the world.

Either you engage in sexual activity or you explode and die.

No one in this world can stop it.

In the end, her brother was forced to marry her.

Since the first day Fang Yuqian entered the mansion, the entire General's Mansion has been in turmoil.

Unfortunately, at that time, she was pregnant and had severe morning sickness, often vomiting profusely.

Because Ling Heng "pitied" her, he did not let her return home to celebrate the festival with her parents.

Also, because I was about to give birth, my belly was very big and my feet were very swollen. I felt very tired after walking a few steps every day, so I didn't persist.

It was not until the next day when she learned about this in Prince Heng's Mansion that it was too late.

She returned home in a hurry.

But my brother remained tight-lipped about the matter and refused to say anything no matter what was asked. He only said that he had done it and he admitted it.

He is willing to marry Fang Yuqian.

She asked the servants in the mansion, but they knew nothing about it either.

It was only said that Miss Fang made a big fuss, saying that the eldest master coveted her beauty and took advantage of her drinking too much at the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet and forced himself on her.

If the eldest son refused to acknowledge her, she would have no choice but to hang herself with a white silk scarf at the gate of the General's Mansion.

The old lady refused to give in, and relying on her status as the legitimate wife of the General's Mansion, she demanded that her brother marry Fang Yuqian in a grand ceremony.

Things have come to this, and although his parents know that their son is not the kind of bastard who is tempted by beauty, they can only accept it.

A month later, they got hastily married.

Somehow, the news of this incident spread outside the palace.

Emperor Jingzhang stripped his brother of his rank of major general on the grounds of his brother's misconduct and only allowed him to serve as a small soldier in his father's army.

All the sufferings of my brother and mother began from this Mid-Autumn Festival.
