After hearing her gossip, all the civil and military officials went crazy.

Chapter 141: Brother-in-law, sister-in-law, and female lead.

Chang Yingying originally had no feelings for him, so his warning felt inexplicable.

He continued doing his own thing obediently, and since his mother didn't mention it, Wang Sanqian assumed his warning had worked.

Hearing this, Fang Lingchu asked curiously, "Who is Wang Sanqian's white moonlight?"

The system gave a mysterious smile: [Hehehe, host, guess.]

Fang Lingchu thought for a moment, and the first thing that flashed through her mind was...

[Could it be his sister-in-law?]

The system just mentioned that Wang Sanqian's sister-in-law is pregnant, but it didn't mention his brother.

The system happily spun around, cheering for Fang Lingchu's cleverness.

[Host, you're too smart; you guessed it right away.]

That's right, Wang Sanqian liked his sister-in-law since he was a child. Unfortunately, his sister-in-law liked his brother. In a fit of anger, he went to the border to join the army. But during a battle, he ran away out of fear.

Everyone thought he was dead, but it turned out he had already gone home. Because he used a fake name when he went there, no one knew who he was, so he was able to go home in peace.

When I got home, I found that I had just moved from the village to the county town and started my own small business. My sister-in-law was even more beautiful than before.

His already restless heart was now even more aroused, but he knew it was his brother, so he hadn't shown it until a month ago when his brother died, leaving his widowed sister-in-law alone. Zhang Sanqian's desires rekindled.

Hearing this, none of them felt anything was wrong; in this era, it was quite normal for two brothers to share a wife.

However, what Fang Lingchu and that gossip can expose is usually either a shameful gossip or a deadly gossip.

So things are definitely not that simple.

Fang Lingchu asked seriously, "Was his brother's death really an accident?"

This is really not a conspiracy theory by Fang Lingchu! In this kind of plot, the killer is usually someone close to the victim.

The system said: "It was an accident, but it wasn't an accident either."

Zhang Sanqian's wife was famous for her beauty, and many people had designs on her.

So his brother often acted strangely, fearing that his wife would cheat on him, especially after his small business stopped making much money that year.

His temper worsened, and he became less kind to his wife, sometimes even resorting to violence. Some people, unable to bear it, lured him to the mountains to collect Ganoderma lucidum, where he fell off a cliff and died.

Death was an accident, but that person had also planned for him to die.

Upon hearing this, the three women present all felt that he deserved to die.

Fang Lingchu continued, "[Then that person wanted to marry Zhang Sanqian's sister-in-law, but she was pregnant, so it all fell through. And then what?]"

The system continued: "Then Chang Yingying went to their house!"

At first, Zhang Sanqian didn't want to marry Chang Yingying, but his mother liked her. After being rejected by his sister-in-law, Zhang Sanqian agreed to his mother's proposal.

It was around this time that Zhang Sanqian's enemies somehow learned that Chang Yingying was the apple of his eye, and they kidnapped her parents.

They asked Zhang Sanqian to give them a task, but Zhang Sanqian refused, and then Chang Yingying's parents died.

Because of this relationship, Zhang Sanqian began to care about Chang Yingying, showing concern for her well-being and even doing things like breaking pots and carrying coffins for the old woman as her son-in-law.

This immediately moved Chang Yingying, and she gradually fell in love with Zhang Sanqian.

Less than three years later, Chang Yingying married Zhang Sanqian. It was around this time that Zhang Sanqian's sister-in-law suddenly noticed that her brother-in-law was starting to appear in front of him, intentionally or unintentionally, saying that she was not good enough on her own.

The old lady of the Zhang family understood the difficulties her eldest daughter-in-law had faced, and she also asked her son to help his sister-in-law more.

For example, once when Chang Yingying was pregnant and prepared to go to the mountain to fulfill a vow, Zhang Sanqian's sister-in-law also wanted to go. When three people go together, trouble is bound to happen.

Then disaster struck. Zhang Sanqian's sister-in-law, in a moment of folly, wanted to eat the peaches on the cliff. She stood there picking peaches and accidentally fell off. Chang Yingying tried to stop her, but Zhang Sanqian, unaware of the situation, thought his wife had pushed him off.

"Chang Yingying, why did you push your sister-in-law? She's a frail woman. Don't you know what the consequences would be if she fell?"

Chang Yingying stared blankly ahead, not knowing why things had turned out this way; she hadn't done anything.

But under her husband's repeated questioning, she believed that she really had pushed him.

Later, Zhang Sanqian went even further. No matter where he went, he always put his sister-in-law first. Chang Yingying lost three or four children because of him, and later Zhang Sanqian even blamed Chang Yingying for not leaving him a son.

Later, for her own and her sister-in-law's safety, Chang Yingying stopped appearing in front of her sister-in-law, which made it easier for Zhang Sanqian and his sister-in-law to have an affair.

The two of them were loving and affectionate every day, just like a married couple.

Later, when Chang Yingying became pregnant for the fourth time, and Zhang Sanqian abandoned her to go find his sister-in-law, Chang Yingying finally gave up and ran away.

Upon hearing this, Fang Lingchu looked at the heart-wrenching scene.

Scene 1: Chang Yingying is pregnant.

“Yingying, you go home slowly by yourself. Your sister-in-law will be scared if she is home alone. I will go back first to take care of her. You know, because of the last time you pushed her, she is very timid now.”

They left Chang Yingying alone on the road outside the city, where she was attacked by refugees, almost resulting in the deaths of both her and her unborn child.

Scene 2: Chang Yingying, who was pregnant, was startled by her sister-in-law's sudden appearance and was kicked in the stomach, resulting in a miscarriage.

"Yingying, your sister-in-law didn't mean it. She was just scared, so she kicked your stomach. Don't be angry. We can still have another child. Just consider it a good deed for our child. Don't blame your sister-in-law."

Scene 3: The sister-in-law pushes Chang Yingying, who is by the pond, into the water.

"Yingying, your sister-in-law didn't mean it. Why are you so petty? She just wanted to scare you. Who told you to fall in without being scared? Because of you, your sister-in-law has gotten sick. Go apologize to her quickly."

......

There are countless similar incidents. Zhang Sanqian always used the excuse that Chang Yingying had wronged her sister-in-law to suppress her. You can imagine what happened next.

Chang Yingying couldn't stand it anymore and ran away with the baby. Only then did Zhang Sanqian realize that he had always loved Chang Yingying.

He also discovered that his sister-in-law frequently framed Chang Yingying in order to gain a good reputation and have him take care of her.

Then he killed his sister-in-law and carried her head all over the world searching for Chang Yingying.

Unfortunately, the Dragon Kingdom was in chaos at that time. However, as the male protagonist, Zhang Sanqian protected the place and cooperated with bandits to conquer a small city and establish himself as king.

Then he found Chang Yingying and admitted his mistake, saying that he had been bewitched by his sister-in-law and hoped she could forgive him. He also discovered that Chang Yingying had given birth to his daughter, and the two reconciled and lived happily ever after.

After hearing this, Fang Lingchu suddenly lost her appetite.

She couldn't eat much to begin with, since she always ate well in the capital, but here she could only eat coarse grains, which she couldn't swallow.
