Until his brother killed the vicious woman Fang with a knife and then committed suicide.

The mother then found the suicide note in her brother's study, which described everything that happened on the Mid-Autumn Festival.

From the first day Fang Yuqian arrived in Shengjing, she and the old lady had been eyeing the position of the eldest son's wife.

Xingyan has paid such a heavy price in exchange for her rebirth in this life.

Naturally, she would make good use of this Mid-Autumn Festival.

My father and brother did not return home that night.

At noon the next day, Li Shuangwan was having lunch with Zhu in the flower hall when Hongshuang came in.

Li Shuangwan put down his bowl and chopsticks, took the water from Luo Man and rinsed his mouth, then looked at Hong Shuang: "Have you found out everything?"

Hong Shuang glanced at Zhu Anhe and nodded: "Yes."

Li Shuangwan's eyes were cold: "Let's talk about it here."

Hongshuang looked at Zhu Anhe again uncertainly.

Zhu Anhe stood up and said, "You guys chat, mom will go out and see why your father and brother haven't come back yet."

"Mom, please sit down and listen to Hongshuang tell us what she has found out. Hongshuang, just tell us what you have to say."

Mother should have been prepared for what will happen tomorrow, but unfortunately father and brother haven't come back yet.

"Yes. Madam, Princess, my cousin Fang Yuqian from Xixiang City wants to marry the eldest son and become the wife of the prince of the Zhenguo Mansion."

Zhu Anhe sneered, "She? Oh, that girl may look like a beautiful girl from a small family, and have a lovely and charming appearance, but her eyes are very cunning. Mother doesn't like her at first sight."

"She and your brother are not a good match, and your brother can't control her."

"Mother, this is not a question of whether my brother can control her. Please listen to what Hong Shuang has to say first."

Zhu Anhe said, "Hongshuang, please continue."

"Yesterday, Fang Yuqian somehow found out about the marriage proposal between the eldest son and Miss Zhong, and reported it to the old lady."

"What did you say?"

Hong Shuang shook her head: "The door was tightly closed, and Aunt Cai was guarding the door, so I have no idea what was said inside. But when Fang Yuqian left, she looked very proud and complacent."

"Not long after, the second young master also entered the house. He came out a moment later and then ordered the servant beside him to go to the black market."

"His Highness the Ninth Prince's men followed him and found that the boy, he..."

Li Shuangwan knew that Gu Xingyan's secret agents had always been watching Li Yuanming.

So during this period, she was aware of all of Li Yuanming's actions.

She also knew what evil things he had done to Ling Heng.

Li Shuangwan's eyes darkened: "Did he order someone to buy aphrodisiac incense on the black market?"

Hong Shuang nodded gently: "Yes, Princess, do you know?"

Li Shuangwan sneered. In her previous life, she had never been able to figure out how this dirty medicine that was only circulated on the black market entered the General's Mansion, and how Fang Yuqian got it.

It turns out it was Li Yuanming all along!

In the previous life, the first and second wives had always gotten along very well, and the two families lived in harmony.

My father and brother made great contributions, and many of the rewards from Emperor Jingzhang were stored in the warehouse of the second house.

Even so, Li Yuanming still wants to plot against the first wife!

Li Shuangwan placed his hands on the table and clenched them into fists.

Although Zhu Anhe didn't know what aphrodisiac incense was, he knew from the name that it was not a good thing, and he stood up immediately in anger.

"I will go and ask the old lady and Li Yuanming what our eldest branch has done to wrong them that they would be so calculating!"

Li Shuangwan sighed helplessly and pulled Zhu Anhe to sit down again: "Mom, I asked Hongshuang to tell you about this, not to let you be so impulsive to find them to argue."

"We need to be absolutely sure that my brother will not fall into their trap."

Zhu Anhe also knew that he had acted impulsively, so he slowly sat down and nodded: "Yan Yan, what do you say we should do?"

Li Shuangwan's eyes were cold. From the moment she was reborn, she would no longer be merciful.

He picked up the tea at hand, took a sip, and said lightly: "Since he gave me one foot, I will give him one foot in return."

Zhu Anhe saw a strong murderous intent in his daughter's eyes.

Hong Shuang said, "Madam, Princess, you can be a thief for a thousand days, but you can never be on guard against thieves for a thousand days. If we can't eliminate the trouble forever this time, Fang Yuqian will not let go easily. Instead of doing this, it's better to give him a taste of his own medicine."

"Madam, since it was Li Yuanming who got this thing, let him suffer the consequences. If he marries Fang Yuqian, everything will be solved."

Li Shuangwan nodded: "Well, let's do it. Remember, be careful."

"Yes, the servant understands."

Li Huaiying and Li Yuanqiao returned home in the evening. Zhu Anhe had been sulking all day, thinking that the second house and the old lady were really too much.

Therefore, as soon as they came in, Zhu Anhe told them about this matter.

Li Huaiying was so angry that veins on his forehead were throbbing. The military affairs had not been resolved yet, and now the mansion was about to be in chaos.

Zhu Anhe looked at Li Yuanqiao and said, "Yuanqiao, be careful tomorrow."

Li Yuanqiao's face was gloomy. If he really fell into their trap, how could he face Miss Zhong? He might as well cut his own neck with a knife.

Li Shuangwan asked worriedly, "Dad, what's going on in the army?"

Talking about this, Li Huaiying sighed helplessly: "It can be considered stable for the time being."

Li Shuangwan asked hurriedly: "Who gave Ling Heng the idea?"

Li Huaiying shook his head: "It's not clear yet."

"Dad, in this matter, the civil officials and military officers must collectively put pressure on Ling Heng."

Li Huaiying nodded: "Dad understands. I heard that the prince deliberately spread the rumor in order to see the reaction of the officials. If the opposition is too strong, he will not force it."

Li Shuangwan curled his lips. If no one objected, or the opposition was small, he would just go with the flow.

So, that means the imperial decree that was originally going to be issued today was also said deliberately by Ling Heng.

……

Early the next morning, everyone went to Songhe Hall to pay their respects to the old lady.

Yizhu helps Li Shuangwan wash and dress.

Hong Shuang stepped inside and said, "Princess, Li Huaiyi has been reinstated. After the Mid-Autumn Festival today, he won't have to go to the Water Conservancy Department anymore."

Li Shuangwan paused: "So fast?"

"Yes, the master sent someone to send me the news, saying that the box of jewelry he sent the day before yesterday must have won Lu Ziqi's favor, so he will no longer pursue the matter of Li Shuangxi."

A faint smile appeared on Li Shuangwan's lips, and Gu Xingyan knew that she was paying attention to Li Huaiyi's affairs.

He took care of everything for her in advance.

Hong Shuang continued, "The master said that the news he got was that Li Huaiyi should return to his original position as a fifth-rank doctor in the Ministry of Works. If he can make some achievements within a month, he will be reported to the Ministry of Personnel and his position will be promoted."
