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

With a "bang", something was thrown in from outside the house. It seemed to be a porcelain bottle, hitting Ying's shoulder, and then rolled down, landing right next to Li Shuangwan's pillow.

The shadow, who was about to take the next step, shuddered as if someone pulled him back to reality from a dream.

He quickly got up from Li Shuangwan, took several steps back, grabbed the messy clothes on the ground and put them on, and really wanted to slap himself a few times.

He's really nothing.

Li Shuangwan immediately picked up the porcelain bottle, uncorked it, put it under his nose and sniffed it gently.

Although she had been waiting for Ying's arrival, she was calm and sober at this moment, knowing that this thing could never be some poison or other thing thrown in by Ling Heng.

Because Ling Heng hasn't gotten what he wants yet, he doesn't dare to act recklessly at this time.

Upon smelling it, Li Shuangwan's eyes lit up in the dark night. She quickly sat up, jumped off the bed, and immediately poured out a pill from the bed and handed it to Ying: "It's a hundred-plant grass that can cure a hundred poisons. Take it quickly."

She was very familiar with this medicine.

Ying hurriedly took the medicine and swallowed it without thinking.

The nagging, almost uncontrollable discomfort gradually subsided as the medicine slid from the throat into the stomach.

The moonlight outside the house was hazy, and the moon shadows were dancing. The warm yellow light of the hexagonal corridor lamps under the eaves also shone through the thin window paper, carving beautiful carved window lattice shapes on the ground.

The woman in the room had shoulders and waist that were so thin that they could be held in one hand. She seemed to be emitting a radiant glow in the night. At this moment, she looked up at him with concern: "How are you?"

Ying turned around and said, "I, I'm fine now. Thank you Miss Li."

Li Shuangwan had long since adapted to the darkness and his eyes were fixed on Ying, forgetting that he was still in dishevel at the moment. Seeing Ying like this, his face stiffened slightly and he hurriedly picked up the clothes on the ground and put them on.

"Do you know who threw this medicine in?" Li Shuangwan was very fast and put on his clothes in a short while.

Ying shook his head, also puzzled: "I don't know. Apart from Prince Heng, his personal maid Qinglian and the palace steward, no one else knows about this."

Hundreds of herbs can cure hundreds of poisons in the world and are extremely precious.

Someone once offered ten thousand taels of gold to get one but failed.

The reason she knew this was because her father got a gold jewel by chance and gave it to her like a treasure, but it was tricked away by Ling Heng.

Such a precious thing actually appeared in Prince Heng's Mansion today and was thrown into her room casually.

It was as if that person had already anticipated what would happen today and prepared this priceless elixir in advance.

Who is this person?

How did he evade the heavy guards at Prince Heng's mansion, throw the medicine into the house, and land it right next to her pillow?

Li Shuangwan frowned, unable to figure it out, but one thing was certain, it couldn't be someone from Prince Heng's Mansion.

Li Shuangwan was puzzled, so he asked the shadow in front of him: "When did Ling Heng ask you to replace him and consummate my marriage?"

"Today at twilight hour, King Heng summoned me and told me about this matter."

Youshi? Li Shuangwan glanced out the window. It was almost Haishi, which was two hours ago.

That’s right, Ling Heng never trusts anyone easily, so how could he let Ying know his plan in advance.

"When did you enter Prince Heng's Palace?"

"When I was ten years old, I was sold into a dense forest, where I was trained as a secret guard. I just entered Prince Heng's palace yesterday."

Li Shuangwan's heart skipped a beat. Secretly training secret guards? In her previous life, she had been with Ling Heng for ten years, but she didn't know that he actually had a place to train secret guards.

The Northern Jin Dynasty had been established for nearly two hundred years, and the royal descendants were allowed to have their own secret guards, but all secret guards had to be selected from the royal training base, registered, and cleared in front of the emperor before they could be taken back to the palace.

No private training is allowed, otherwise it will be suspected of intending to rebel.

Li Shuangwan asked hurriedly: "Do you know the way there?"

Ying shook his head. "In order to prevent being discovered, we are blindfolded and transferred to another place every once in a while. The nearest place is called Linshan. Yesterday, my subordinate was blindfolded and fed a bowl of knockout drug before being sent out."

Li Shuangwan said coldly, Ling Heng was careful everywhere and took every step carefully, so it was indeed not so easy to expose Lin Shan.

"How long does it take to get from the mountain to Prince Heng's Palace?"

Ying still shook his head: "I don't know. When I woke up, I was already in the room of Prince Heng's mansion. No one told me how long I slept in that room."

"How often does Ling Heng go there?" Ling Heng was so cautious, and the information she could know was too limited.

Ying said: "My subordinates were the first to be sold in for training. We have been to five different places in the past ten years. I have only seen King Heng twice. One time was five years ago, and the other time was three months ago."

Li Shuangwan's eyes darkened. In May of this year, she, her father, mother, and brother returned to Shengjing from the northwest. At the palace banquet, she met the elegant and gentle Ling Heng. After returning to the mansion, she kept shouting about how good His Royal Highness Prince Heng was and how she wanted to marry him.

From then on, whenever she went out of the house or attended a flower-viewing party or other banquet in some mansion, she would see Ling Heng.

He was handsome, kind, and chatted and laughed with the people around him. Occasionally, when he saw her staring at him, he would nod at her with a smile.

But when she tried to approach her and strike up a conversation with him, he made an excuse to leave in a hurry, being humble but polite.

Just like the first time at the palace banquet, he looked into her eyes intentionally or unintentionally.

The spirit of playing hard to get, disappearing and then leaving, coupled with the fact that he was a prince, made her feel anxious and obsessed with him.

So, everything was his calculation.

Er Ying said that he was sold to be trained as a secret guard ten years ago. Ling Heng is twenty-three years old this year, and the thirteen-year-old Ling Heng already had such a plan.

She should have thought of it earlier. Ling Heng had no shortage of money. His biological mother, Lin Wanru, was from a wealthy merchant family with businesses all over the Northern Jin Dynasty. This was also the reason why Emperor Jingzhang took her as his concubine.

Moreover, training secret guards requires huge financial support, and it is often not possible to train a suitable secret guard among dozens of people.

But not long after Concubine Lin gave birth to Ling Heng, the Lin family business seemed to be cursed for some reason. Everything they did suffered losses, and within a few years the huge business was completely lost and became an empty shell.

It was also from that time that Concubine Lin fell out of favor.

In her previous life, she didn't realize until later that this was just a plot set up by her and her son. Every time a shop in a certain place closed down, there would always be shops from other industries that would reopen.

In the vast Northern Jin, countless shops close down and reopen every day, and the money flows into the dark.

What a trick it was to replace the dragon with the phoenix. Even Emperor Jingzhang was deceived.
