After being read, the abstinent prince bullies others with his wife every day

Lin Shuning's eyes flashed with surprise, and then he nodded firmly: "Okay, from now on I will call Master Yun my big brother."

Ever since her soul entered the original owner's body, although she had relatives, she had never felt the warmth of family love. Even in the Shangshu Mansion, she had to keep her heart tense all the time. It didn't feel like a home at all, but like a hell.

Only today in the General's Mansion did she truly feel the warmth of family love.

She even thought that it would be nice if she was really the general's daughter.

Yun Sheng's eyes welled up with tears of excitement: "Little sister!"

"Brother!" Lin Shuning responded clearly, feeling even more emotional in her heart. In the future, would she be considered someone with a brother?

Wei Xi looked at the two people in front of him and cried with joy. All the bad things that happened just now were swept away: "Come here, tell the kitchen to prepare some good food. Today, we want to have a big meal with my little sister!"

The smile continued, the stone pavilion was glowing a soft red, dusk gradually fell, a burst of white light appeared among the layers of dark clouds, and with a few "tick-tock" sounds, drizzles began to fall.

……

It has been rainy these days, adding a bit of chill to the already dim cell.

Two bailiffs came out of the cell rubbing their hands together. "These days, anything can happen. The one who was just sent in was said to be Madam Yun's personal maid in the General's Mansion. She was so bold as to add blood-activating medicine to the pregnancy-preserving medicine. She even dared to offend the General's Mansion. She really doesn't want to live anymore."

"She is not satisfied with such a good job. She is a strange person. But I don't think she has any regret or fear. Didn't you see it? When we locked her up and left just now, she found a clean place to sit down and combed her hair with a look of disgust on her face."

"Who knows? Maybe he has someone in power and has already found another way out."

"Okay, let's go out, it's freezing here!"

The two yamen runners left while talking, and after a sound of footsteps, they completely disappeared.

Longyue sat on the ground, without any panic on her face. Instead, she looked calm and confident of victory.

The candlelight flickered, and a figure quietly appeared before her eyes.

Long Yue's eyes lit up, and she stepped forward quickly, saying, "Sir, please rescue me quickly. I have added the blood-activating medicine to the pregnancy-preserving medicine as you instructed, but I didn't expect it to be discovered by the Third Miss of the Shangshu Mansion. I have no way to deal with it.

You said that as long as I do what you said, you won’t blame me whether I succeed or not, and you will find a good place for me to live the rest of my life!"

"Yeah, I really don't blame you," the black-clothed man said charmingly. He reached out and pinched Longyue's chin. "After all, you are quite pretty. How could I bear to let you stay in this place?"

Longyue's face lit up with joy and she wanted to say something, but before she could finish her words, her eyes rolled back and she fainted on the ground.

The man in black took out a cotton rope from his sleeve and tied it tightly around her slender neck, tightening it continuously...

The rain was getting heavier. The shadow of the ginkgo tree hung obliquely on the water. The falling fans and raindrops drew several ripples on the water. The crescent moon in the pond, which was so close at hand, shook and became completely blurred.

……

With the warm hospitality of Yun Sheng and Wei Xi, Lin Shuning ate three bowls of rice and drank a bottle of osmanthus wine, but she really couldn't hold her liquor and her head was dizzy. She didn't know how she ended up lying on the bed.

Fortunately, Wei Xi did not feel any discomfort that night, and both of them slept until dawn.

Wei Xi got up early, but Lin Shuning slept until noon.

After she had packed up, she walked out of the house embarrassedly and saw Wei Xi cutting flowers in the yard. Duo'er followed her with anger on her little face.

"How could Long Yue do such a thing? How dare she murder Madam when I'm not around? Madam treated her so well! No, I'm going to find her in prison right now, tear off her face, dig out her heart, and see if she's really evil!"

Wei Xi shook his head helplessly: "I'm afraid you can't do it now, she's dead."

"Dead?!" This time, Lin Shuning and Duo'er said in unison.

Wei Xi put down the scissors and showed a gentle smile on his face: "Sister, you are awake, did you sleep well last night?"

"Okay, very good!" Lin Shuning looked a little embarrassed. She stayed here with the intention of checking her sister-in-law's health, but she didn't expect that her alcohol tolerance was so poor. She was drunk and unconscious after a few sips of sweet wine. If she had known earlier, she should not have drunk. It is a sin to be greedy for wine!

"That's good. Don't worry. After you fell asleep last night, I asked Yun Sheng to report to the Shangshu Mansion on your behalf and tell Lord Lin that you will stay at my place tonight. He won't blame you when you go back."

Lin Shuning nodded, and thinking of Lin Cheng, she sneered in her heart. Of course he wouldn't blame her. He would probably be so happy to know that she was staying in the general's mansion that he would be grinning from ear to ear.

He really wanted to climb up the high branch of the General's Mansion.

She suppressed her thoughts and asked, "Sister-in-law, what do you mean Longyue is dead?"

"This morning, news came from the Dali Temple that Longyue committed suicide in prison." Yun Sheng walked in from the front yard and said calmly.

Wei Xi sighed and shook his head helplessly.

Yun Sheng saw the sadness in her heart, held her in his arms, and comforted her: "Maybe she regretted treating you like this, so she committed suicide. Don't be sad, I will order someone to bury her properly, which can be regarded as the last bit of master-servant friendship for you."

Lin Shuning thought for a moment and said, "Brother and sister-in-law, you still have to be more careful."

Her brows knitted slightly. "I feel that there is something fishy about this matter. I'm afraid it's not just a simple reason like 'jealousy' as Longyue said at the beginning.

How could a maid who had followed her sister-in-law for ten years betray her if no one instigated her? The only possibility is that this person gave her a huge benefit and Longyue couldn't resist the temptation. Now that the matter has been exposed, that person hastily disposed of her and silenced her."

Lin Shuning put his fingers together and pointed upwards.

Wei Xi and Duo'er did not understand this gesture, but Yun Sheng did.

There was a gloom on his face. Ever since Prince Rui returned to the capital, the court had been in turmoil. The eldest prince and the third prince had sent people to win him over time, but he had rejected them all.

Could it be that they were the ones causing trouble?

As Yun Sheng pondered, he was also surprised. He had been an official for decades, but even he had overlooked this point. Lin Shuning, an unmarried girl, actually considered this for him. She was so meticulous and thoughtful, and should not be underestimated.

If his sister hadn't been lost, she might have been as resourceful as she was.

He felt a little emotional, raised his hands, and said respectfully: "Thank you for your reminder, sister. I will keep this in mind and will take strict precautions in the future. I will not let anyone hurt my family again."

Lin Shuning pursed his lips and smiled, saying, "You are too polite, brother. Since my sister-in-law is fine, I won't stay any longer. I still have some things to deal with, so I will go back first."

Wei Xi looked at her reluctantly: "You are leaving so soon, and you haven't had breakfast yet? Why don't you have breakfast with me before you leave?"

Although Lin Shuning wanted to eat very much, her body really couldn't bear it.

The food she ate last night was stuck in her stomach and had not been fully digested. If she ate more, she would definitely have indigestion.

She waved her hand and rejected Wei Xi's request to stay: "Thank you for your kindness, sister-in-law, but I really have no appetite now."

"Okay," Wei Xi thought of how drunk she was yesterday, guessing that she must not have sobered up yet, so he did not force her, and said softly, "Then go back and be careful. Duo'er, prepare a carriage for the Third Miss and Lian'er, and prepare some delicious cakes."

She turned her head to look at Lin Shuning, and said in a gentle tone with a hint of reluctance: "In case you suddenly want to eat again on the way, it can be used as a snack."

"Thank you, sister-in-law." Lin Shuning nodded in agreement. He felt that the woman in front of him was so beautiful, gentle, considerate, kind and careful. No wonder everyone in the capital praised her.

"Okay, don't feel sorry for her. Just ask your sister to come visit you more often in the future." Yun Sheng saw that his wife looked a little sad, so he stepped forward to comfort her.

"Brother is right. I will come and spend more time with my sister-in-law in the future." Lin Shuning agreed with a sweet smile.

"It's settled then." Wei Xi reluctantly let go of her hand, and together with Yun Sheng, he sent Lin Shuning to the carriage.

The carriage was very spacious, with a faint scent of incense lingering in the air. In the middle was a small table with exquisite pastries placed in food boxes. Lin Shuning felt a warm feeling in her heart. She opened the curtain and said in a clear voice, "Brother, sister-in-law, I will go back first. If you feel unwell in the future, you must find me first!"

"Don't worry!" Yun Sheng embraced Wei Xi, waved his hand, and watched the carriage slowly drive away.

The horse's hooves stepped over a small puddle, and the splashed flowers and leaves fell into the river, turned around, and disappeared along the winding river channel.

At the same time, in the palace, in the imperial study.

"Yeah."
