As expected by everyone, she became the wife of the Marquis after being married off

It was the spring of the twenty-fourth year of Yingde, which was also the year before Shen Lanyue married Meng Changce.

Shen Lanyue woke up from a nightmare. When she found out that she was reborn a few years before she got married, she cried bitterly in the room, feeling desperate, disappointed and painful.

At that time, she couldn't understand why she had to go through such a life again. Every time she thought of everything in her previous life, she felt like it was a hellish nightmare for herself.

Shen Lanyue stayed in seclusion in her room for several days, and no one came to visit her except Fanfan and Shen Zian.

Of course, this would not make Shen Lanyue feel strange at all because she was in such an awkward situation in the mansion. Her biological father did not like or love her, and her biological mother was dead.

One day, in the midst of hatred, Shen Lanyue accidentally heard the voices of maids outside. They were discussing Shen Wanqing's pride and favor, which deeply stimulated her who was in a decadent state.

I remember it was a sunny day. With tears of excitement flowing down her face, Shen Lanyue pushed open the door and looked up to see the dazzling bright sunshine.

"Miss?" Fanfan called out in a crying voice.

Shen Lanyue just smiled at her to comfort her.

But what she didn't know was that in Fanfan's eyes that day, the young lady's smile was even more bitter and uglier than her crying.

After that day, Shen Lanyue ate well as usual, and occasionally asked Fanfan to go out to deliver the letters she wrote to her mother's family, which were full of longing for her family.

She remembered that she had several uncles and her grandmother was still alive, and she still had a lot of feelings for her mother, but Shen Lanyue in her previous life didn't know this.

In the following letter, she asked the elders in her family to arrange some people for her and explained her difficulties at home.

Although the mother's family does not have the ability like the Shen family now, they still have some foundation in their hometown, and Shen Lanyue soon got help.

She was also planning step by step how to get rid of the biggest dilemma she faced in her previous life, which was Li Wenxuan.

Regarding this, Shen Lanyue also thanked Shen Wanqing for her guidance.

At that time, there were still a few days before Shen Ling's birthday, and Shen Lanyue had not found someone who could compete with Li Wenxuan until she met Shen Wanqing in the garden that day.

Shen's Back Garden

"Who was it that I thought was standing by the lotus pond so early in the morning?" Shen Wanqing walked to Shen Lanyue with a sarcastic look on her face: "It turned out to be you, my sister."

Shen Lanyue didn't even want to look at her and continued to feed the fish food in her hand.

How could Shen Wanqing tolerate her indifference? You have to know that Shen Lanyue had never been like this before. She would even hide when she saw her.

"That's right. You, the eldest daughter of a legitimate family, can only feed fish here. You can't even take care of your father's birthday."

Seeing that she still didn't speak, Shen Wanqing continued to sarcastically say, "But maybe this time, father will find you a decent man to marry you off."

Shen Lanyue paused for the fish food in her hand, finally raised her eyes to look at her, and curled up the corners of her mouth to smile.

There was a chill in his eyes towards her.

Shen Wanqing had never seen her like this. In her impression, Shen Lanyue had always been dignified, virtuous and had no temper. She couldn't help but step back when she was looked at by her.

That beautiful face turned a little pale for a moment, but she quickly recovered.

Shen Wanqing touched her hair and said disdainfully, "It's useless to glare at me. My sister is not like me who is better than you in everything. The Marquis of Changning and his men send precious things to the mansion every day for me to play with."

There was arrogance in her words that could not be concealed.

But Shen Lanyue was stunned when she heard it. The moment she heard the three words "Marquis Changning", she felt like she had finally found a little hope.

She ignored what Shen Wanqing wanted to say next, threw all the fish food in her hand into the pond, and lowered her eyes to watch the koi rushing in.

"You..." Shen Wanqing was so angry when she saw Shen Lanyue's leaving back, but that person didn't show any intention of looking at her.

Afterwards, Shen Lanyue asked someone to find out Meng Changce's whereabouts and hobbies, which was very easy. This man now has nothing serious to do. Every day, except for attending court, he just drinks and has fun.

But one thing Shen Lanyue knew was that Meng Changce would definitely come to Shen Ling's birthday party because the invitation was sent by Shen Wanqing.

She designed a complete plan and used herself as bait.

On Shen Ling's birthday, Meng Changce showed up at the Shen residence as expected, and Shen Lanyue had someone pass on the message that Shen Wanqing had asked them to meet in the back garden.

She stood in the pavilion in the back garden, watching his figure getting closer and closer, and she knew she had no choice but to give it a try.

Shen Lanyue pretended to accidentally fall into the pond and floundered in the water.

"Help... Help..." For the sake of authenticity, Shen Lanyue really can't swim, and that pond can really drown people.

She splashed in the water, but in the water she also saw him standing leisurely in the pavilion, looking coldly at her miserable appearance in the water.

Through the choking water, Shen Lanyue's blurry vision saw the man standing there leisurely, watching her struggle for survival, his eyes dark and deep, ignoring her.

I could even see pleasure in his eyes.

Shen Lanyue was slowly losing her strength. The water sometimes reached her forehead. She closed her eyes and let her floating body sink quietly.

At that time, Shen Lanyue thought: Maybe she was wrong about Meng Changce's indifference.

But she heard another plop sound, and someone grabbed her arm and held her in his arms.

His warmth was transmitted to her body, and he leaned close to her ear and seemed to whisper something.

"If you want to be perfect, then struggle hard and don't really die."

The moment she breathed the air again, Shen Lanyue opened her embarrassed eyes and looked at him, and saw a smile in his eyes.

The result is obvious, Shen Lanyue succeeded.

I don’t know if it was Meng Changce’s deliberate act or for other reasons, but Fanfan, who was hiding in the dark, didn’t come to the point where he had to come and rescue her, and Shen Ling was also attracted over.

Of course, other irrelevant people could not see this scene. Shen Lanyue had already arranged in her plan for Shen Zian to greet those people in the front hall.

Shen Zian trusted Shen Lanyue so much, so naturally he didn't know the truth. He just suffered from misunderstanding.

But it is true that Meng Changce saved Shen Lanyue, and it is also true that he had physical contact with her. Even if not many people know about it, it cannot change it.

So no matter how ugly Shen Wanqing's face was after hearing it, Meng Changce still proposed to Emperor Yingde in person, and after going through the three letters and six ceremonies, he married Shen Lanyue.

At that time, when people in the capital learned that Changning Marquis Meng Changce was going to marry the eldest daughter of the Shen family, whom they had hardly heard of, they were greatly shocked.

At that time, everyone knew that Marquis Changning loved Shen Wanqing.
