Tragic death and rebirth, the daughter of a general poisoned the government and the country

Lin Yushu returned, and the general's mansion did a good job of preparing for the event, arranging a family dinner in the evening.

As evening approached, Lin Yushu was dressed neatly. Her fair face was unmade up, and she wore a light yellow cotton skirt with only a plain silver hairpin on her head, which made her look shabby.

Even so, it is difficult to conceal Lin Yushu's peerless beauty.

Lin Yushu stared at the bronze mirror for a whole incense stick of time, trying to figure out what expression she should have had at this moment in her previous life.

Unfortunately, it is difficult for people who have died once to regain their former innocence. Their eyes are no longer clear, but as calm as the water in a dead well, with only a hint of ruthlessness flashing in the moment of looking back.

Chuntao stood quietly beside Lin Yushu, looking at her breathtakingly beautiful face as usual, but she couldn't help feeling distressed and suffocated. Chuntao didn't know why she had such an illusion.

"Miss, it's time." Shi Lan reminded softly.

Lin Yushu got up and went to Ci'an Temple to meet the old lady, one of the culprits of the tragedy in her previous life!

In her previous life, after her father and brother returned victorious, Nan Huaishuo began to pursue her. The old lady and the second lady often spoke well of Nan Huaishuo in front of her, and even helped Nan Huaishuo create opportunities to meet her.

When she thought about her second uncle who had boarded Nan Huaishuo's boat early, Lin Yushu knew that she and her father and brother were the sacrifices for Nan Huaishuo and her second uncle's bright future!

The second uncle used Lin Yushu's family to gain Nan Huaishuo's trust, and Nan Huaishuo used them to ascend to the throne. Then, the cunning rabbit died and the running dog was cooked. It was a pity that she realized it too late, and only woke up after her family died.

Lin Yushu swallowed the bloody smell rising from her throat and closed her eyes to force back the tears.

Leaving Shilan and Cuizhu to look after the yard, he supported Chuntao and walked step by step towards Ci'an Courtyard.

As soon as they arrived at the gate of Ci'an Courtyard, the second wife and a group of maids came over from a distance. Lin Yushu stood at the door politely and saluted her.

The Second Madam glanced at Lin Yushu indifferently and said, "Shu'er, you are here early. I think your grandmother misses you very much. Come in quickly."

Lin Yushu bowed obediently and did not leave immediately. Instead, she looked behind the Second Madam, where two young girls were standing.

A younger one, of short stature and ordinary appearance, wearing a princess-colored dress and a fox fur cloak that made her round face look smaller and cuter. Unfortunately, the pearly and jade-like clothes overshadowed her liveliness and cuteness, making her look out of place and tacky.

She was staring at Lin Yushu with curiosity, neither greeting nor speaking, with an arrogant and rude look.

This is the second wife’s legitimate daughter, the fourth lady of the Lin family, Lin Xuehui.

The other one was taller, with a beautiful face and outstanding temperament. If it weren’t for Lin Yushu, she would deserve the title of the most beautiful woman in the capital.

She was slightly plump, with fair skin, and the lavender dress she wore made her look like a fairy from heaven. She was looking at Lin Yushu with a gentle expression, without any hostility, but instead made people feel close to her.

This is the second wife’s eldest daughter, the second young lady of the Lin family, Lin Qingrou!

Others who don't understand Lin Qingrou must think that she is gentle and a well-educated lady. In her previous life, she approached Lin Yushu in this way and easily deceived Lin Yushu's trust.

Lin Yushu knew from the bitter experience in her previous life that Lin Qingrou was an evil ghost who would eat people without leaving any bones. She was very good at disguise and forbearance, lurking beside her prey and making careful moves until she hit the target!

Lin Yushu gave her a brilliant smile. Lin Yushu's unparalleled beauty made Lin Qingrou, who was as bright as the stars, immediately dim as if she saw the dazzling bright moon.

Lin Qingrou's smile cracked for a moment.

Lin Yushu was secretly happy. There were only two things that Lin Qingrou valued most in her life: beauty and the position of queen.

It doesn’t matter who is the emperor, but Lin Qingrou must be the queen.

At this moment, Lin Qingrou is working hard to manage everything about herself, especially her beauty. Now many dignitaries in the capital city believe that Lin Qingrou is the most beautiful woman in the capital.

With such a good reputation and family background, who can compete with Lin Qingrou? Sooner or later, she will win the crown of queen!

But when she saw Lin Yushu's appearance, the confidence in her heart collapsed. She had long forgotten what Lin Yushu looked like when she left home at the age of ten. She never expected that she would grow up to be so beautiful, even more beautiful than herself!

Lin Qingrou secretly clenched the handkerchief in her hand.

The Second Madam naturally knew what her daughter was thinking, but she was not in a hurry. Lin Yushu was just a wild girl, and no matter how beautiful she was, she was only used to pave the way for Lin Qingrou.

"Rou'er, Hui'er, come and meet your eldest sister."

"I've met eldest sister."

"Shu'er, this is your second sister Rou'er, and this is your fourth sister Hui'er, do you remember them?"

Lin Yushu looked timid and said, "Of course I remember. My two sisters are as beautiful as flowers. Anyone who has seen them will never forget them."

Lin Qingrou felt much better when she saw Lin Yushu being so petty. She was just a bumpkin who had been neglected for many years.

Lin Qingrou stepped forward and took Lin Yushu's hand warmly, "It's been many years since we last met. I've been thinking about you. Are you feeling better now?"

Lin Yushu spoke to Lin Qingrou politely but timidly. From the corner of her eye she saw the Second Madam's satisfied smile and Lin Xuehui's undisguised look of contempt.

"Why don't you see the third sister?"

Lin Yushu asked casually, and the Second Madam's smile faded after hearing it.

"Your third sister Fang'er is not feeling well, so she can't come out to see you today."

Lin Yushu thought to herself that her third sister, Lin Fang, was the illegitimate daughter of the second concubine. Both Lin Fang and her concubine were extremely intelligent people. The fact that they had been able to survive under the second concubine's tyranny showed how capable they were.

However, Lin Fang's intelligence gradually emerged in Lingjiu Hall, a girls' school, causing the Second Madam to become wary of her and not easily bring her to meet people. Today, she even refused to let her attend the family dinner. The Second Madam is really paranoid about everything.

Fortunately, Lin Yushu's father, Lin Mingyue, and mother, Ye Yuanshuang, were deeply in love. Her father only had her mother by his side, no concubines, and he did not remarry after her mother passed away. As for the children of their eldest wife, there were only her and her brother Lin Ling, so they had a very quiet life.

Lin Yushu followed Lin Qingrou obediently, with a cautious and dull look on her face, which made Lin Qingrou feel comfortable.

What's the use of having beauty? She's just a straw beauty.

As soon as everyone walked into the main room, they smelled the scent of sandalwood. The old lady worshipped Buddha all year round, and at this moment she was sitting upright on the sandalwood armchair, giving people the illusion that she had a kind face.

The second lady led Lin Qingrou and Lin Xuehui forward to pay their respects, then sat down on the chairs on both sides of the old lady.

In the spacious main hall, only Lin Yushu was standing properly, and everyone's eyes were all on her.

Lin Yushu knelt down with her knees bent, her forehead resting on the cold marble floor. Her face was cold, but her tone was full of fear and trepidation.

"Granddaughter pays homage to grandmother, may grandmother be blessed with good health!"

Seeing Lin Yushu's awkward and stiff salute, the inquiring looks of the Lin family members slowly turned into contempt and disdain.

The old lady smiled knowingly.

A wild girl who has been kept outside for many years, no matter how calm she pretends to be on the outside, cannot help but feel panic in front of the rich and powerful officials.

Lin Yushu's little cleverness may fool the ignorant old women and servants, but in front of her, all demons and monsters will show their true colors!
