After the marriage, my husband's family listened to my voice and turned the tide
Chapter 90 Yu Lanxi reveals her trump card
……
It is said that when Shang Tingli arrived outside the gate, he saw the gorgeous carriage on the side of the road at a glance. It was covered with expensive and exquisite silk on all sides, and the windows were inlaid with gold and gems and covered with light pink crepe. It was extremely gorgeous.
She raised her eyebrows slightly.
As expected of Yu Lanxi, she has always loved such luxurious things. Even when she got married, she would not reduce the expenses when traveling.
When Chun Nuan, who was waiting beside the carriage, saw her, she quickly knelt down to greet her, and then said to the people in the carriage: "Madam, the Crown Prince's Consort is out."
"Hmph, I knew it."
An indulgent voice came from inside the car, and then a woman's hand lifted the curtain, and a beautiful woman in pink clothes walked out, and walked down while Chunnuan held her hand.
Yu Lanxi raised her chin and said, "You are here as expected."
Shang Tingli smiled and didn't respond.
Only after Yu Lanxi bowed to her did she nonchalantly say, "Look at cousin Lanxi, why do you always treat me with estrangement? We are cousins, why do we need such empty formalities? No need for formalities."
Yu Lanxi rolled her eyes.
"Is there any need for such hypocrisy between you and me?" She was really pretending.
Shang Tingli curled his lips slightly: "Are you sure you want to talk to me here?"
Yu Lanxi glanced at the open door of Prince Ren's Mansion behind her, paused, and said with her head held high, "Let's go to Fengting Tower."
After saying this, she returned to the carriage.
Shang Tingli asked Fang Zhi to arrange it.
Within three quarters of an hour, the two of them closed the doors and windows of the private room on the third floor of Fengting Tower. They were the only two people in the room, and even the four personal maids were guarding outside the door.
This private room was chosen by Yu Lanxi. She said that what they were going to discuss might be shocking and must not be known to a third person. Therefore, she chose the private room on the third floor.
The private room on the third floor is more private than that on the second floor, so they don't have to worry about their conversation being leaked.
"Tell me, what exactly does cousin Lan Xi want to do?"
Shang Tingli lowered his eyes and poured himself a cup of hot tea, adding cold tea water as a way of thanking him, which "pattered" from time to time.
Yu Lanxi mentioned two things in the post she received earlier. The first was something that happened in her previous life about Ke Xiaowu. Yu Lanxi said that Ke Xiaowu would have been addicted to gambling and was supposed to be a violent guy, but now there is no news about Ke Xiaowu. The second thing was something that would have happened in her previous life but has not happened yet, and even something unexpected has happened, which is Lingyun's marriage.
From the above two examples, Yu Lanxi suspected that she was reborn, and she also said something on the post - Yu Lanxi knew the big things that would happen next, and said that if she didn't come to see her, she would definitely regret it.
Shang Tingli saw that the tea was almost cool, so he tried taking a sip. The aroma of the tea filled his lips and teeth, it was very refreshing.
She wanted to know what Yu Lanxi was up to, so she came.
"You have been reborn, right?" Yu Lanxi raised the corners of her mouth slightly, her eyes full of sarcasm.
It's not like she hasn't tried this person before.
On the contrary, she had tried twice, and each time she was cunningly fooled. Oh, this time she would not let her play with her again.
What she didn't expect was that Shang Tingli not only didn't admit it, but his face was full of incredulity: "Rebirth? What does this mean?"
Yu Lanxi's pupils shrank: "What are you pretending for?"
What she said was so clear. If he hadn't been reborn, why would he follow her here?
Drink tea? Are they in a relationship where they can sit down and drink tea together peacefully?
Yu Lanxi said that she was once again irritated by the bitch cousin across from her. She really felt that the two of them were incompatible, and she was always irritated by her, the kind that could really make her angry to death.
"I'm not pretending." Shang Tingli said innocently, "The word 'rebirth' sounds mysterious. How can I understand what my cousin is trying to say?"
Yu Lanxi was furious: "You——"
He pointed at her and was speechless, and for a moment he was so angry that he laughed.
"Okay, let's do as you say. Since you don't understand what I mean, why bother following me?"
Shang Tingli said calmly, "Although I really don't understand what you mean, and I don't understand what you said in your post, but I am really curious."
"What do you mean by the big thing that will happen next?" She looked confused. "Just cousin Lan Xi, I remember that you have never learned anything about fortune-telling?"
Of course she knew what big things would happen next, and she was indeed reborn.
However, if Yu Lanxi wanted to lure her out like this, she would be underestimating her. How could she admit that she was reborn?
If she is not careful, she could easily be burned to death by fire, which is life-threatening. She is not a fool to walk into a trap.
"..."
Yu Lanxi felt unwell all over.
So she really guessed wrong? Is she exposing her own cards now?
She had a gloomy expression on her face, no longer looking at people with her chin down, and lowered her head for a rare moment. She thought about it in her mind, trying to think of a remedy quickly.
The silent atmosphere lasted for about half a cup of tea.
Yu Lanxi suddenly raised her lips and smiled at her gently: "Hey, my polite cousin, you and I are real cousins, how can we really be estranged?"
Shang Tingli shook off goosebumps, chuckled and said calmly: "I think cousin Lan Xi may have misunderstood something. I still remember that six years ago--"
"My cousin once wanted to kill me."
Her tone was light, but Yu Lanxi's throat tightened when she heard it. She smiled awkwardly and said, "Isn't that just a joke with my cousin?"
Shang Tingli smiled but said nothing, and did not respond to this question.
Yu Lanxi was annoyed by her attitude, but she gritted her teeth and endured it, continuing to smile as gently as possible and said, "Since I have confessed to my cousin, I will not hide it from you."
Shang Tingli said, "You say."
"You read the post word for word, didn't you?"
"nature."
Yu Lanxi still pretended to smile in a friendly manner. She said, "As for the matter of the fifth young master in your family, I wonder what kind of luck he had..." As she spoke, she raised her eyes and glanced at the person opposite her, trying to see through his inner thoughts, but to no avail.
She gave up temporarily.
Yu Lanxi continued, "He should have strayed into gambling. His temper became more and more irritable. He would have bumped into the then-favored concubine, Concubine Yun, at the palace banquet next year and been beaten to death."
"Concubine Yun?"
Shang Tingli asked in surprise, "Where did Concubine Yun come from?"
She had a strange look on her face, without any flaws.
Yu Lanxi frowned unconsciously. It seemed that the other party was not really a reborn person.
Concubine Yun is now just a maid working as a laborer in the laundry department. Her name is Xiao Yun. There is no favorite concubine "Concubine Yun" in the palace. It will only happen next year that Emperor Wu of Ming Dynasty will unexpectedly favor Xiao Yun.
If Shang Tingli is really not a reborn person, then it is understandable that you have never heard of the name "Princess Yun".
"There is no Concubine Yun now, but there will definitely be one next year." Yu Lanxi said mysteriously.
Shang Tingli just felt like laughing in his heart, but a look of surprise was still on his face.
Yu Lanxi's train of thought was not something she could understand, so she couldn't understand Yu Lanxi's purpose in revealing her cards, nor could she understand what Yu Lanxi wanted to do.
Besides, the current situation is that the two families have already quarreled openly. Is Yu Lanxi crazy to tell her these secrets at this time?
For the time being, Shang Tingli could only attribute all this to the fact that Yu Lanxi was not smart.
She slowly tasted the tea and asked curiously, "What did my cousin say?"
Yu Lanxi rolled her eyes and asked, "Do you know who led the Fifth Young Master to gamble and made him addicted to gambling?"
Shang Tingli blinked his eyes and said, "Xiaowu is addicted to gambling? I'm afraid my cousin remembered it wrongly. Our Xiaowu is very well behaved now. There is nothing that the teacher of the Imperial College leaves him that he cannot finish."
Yu Lanxi said with a complicated expression: "This is also because the Second Prince discovered it in time, otherwise do you think the Fifth Young Master would not be addicted?"
Shang Tingli didn't say anything for a while.
But in his heart he was delighted. The Second Prince was indeed the one taking the blame. Look, even Yu Lanxi, a reborn person, thought it was his credit.
As long as she is not suspected, let Yu Lanxi think whatever she wants.
After thinking for a while, she smiled and agreed, "It is indeed thanks to the Second Prince, otherwise Xiao Wu might really be on a path of no return as my cousin said."
Yu Lanxi waved her hand: "Well, he's just a half-grown child, but some people are willing to target him."
Shang Tingli was just stunned: "What do you mean, cousin?"
Yu Lanxi subconsciously glanced around, leaned forward, and whispered to her, "You can't judge a person by his appearance, but you can judge his heart by his appearance. The matter of your fifth young master was the work of the Crown Prince."
Shang Tingli was terrified: "Cousin, are you saying that it was the Crown Prince who did this behind the scenes?"
"Why did Your Highness do this?" Her face turned slightly pale, as if she was extremely scared, yet she was trying her best to endure it.
Yu Lanxi asked, "Don't the Fifth Young Master and the Sixth Young Master from the Censor's Mansion usually play together like a pair of pants?"
Shang Tingli nodded.
Yu Lanxi chuckled: "Isn't that right? That's why His Royal Highness the Crown Prince suspected that the Young Master was the Second Prince's man. The reason for doing this is nothing more than to reduce the Second Prince's power."
Shang Tingli's face turned pale and he whispered anxiously, "Cousin, please be careful with your words."
There was a faint curve on the corner of her lips, so faint that it was almost non-existent, a very light mockery.
I really didn't expect that Yu Lanxi could be so smart that she actually knew how to frame His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
How did Yu Lanxi know about this?
Since she thought the fourth prince was the final winner, she must have never known who Ke Xingchen was until her death in her previous life. She would not have known that Ke Xiaowu's gambling addiction was also the work of the fourth prince.
But now she can pass the blame to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince...
Shang Tingli was pondering in his heart.
Finally, a conclusion was reached. Yu Lanxi must have heard something from Ji Zhang, for example, the Fourth Prince said that it was the Crown Prince who did it to the Second Prince. After all, if Ji Zhang could be valued by the Fourth Prince, it was very likely that the Fourth Prince would say more to him. In order to maintain their own image, some people often maintain their own character by devaluing the character of others.
The Second Prince was not a fool, so he would naturally find out that the Fourth Prince was responsible for that incident, and he would definitely take revenge on him. As time went by, with the Fourth Prince's mean mind, he would definitely use this incident to frame the Crown Prince in front of his subordinates, saying that the Crown Prince had done something dirty and framed him in return, saying that he was really in trouble, and he would use this to win the sympathy of his subordinates.
Villains often attract villains the most. She was not surprised at all that Ji Zhang was favored by the Fourth Prince.
Thinking of this, Shang Tingli glanced at Yu Lanxi's face.
She didn't know why Yu Lanxi thought that the Fourth Prince would sit on the throne in the end. Was it because the Fourth Prince was still fine when Ke Xingchen got into trouble?
Or did Ke Xingchen in his previous life give Yu Lanxi the illusion that he was the prince or the second prince's man?
As she was thinking, she heard Yu Lanxi say, "I'm not talking nonsense. Of course, it's up to you, cousin, to believe it or not."
Shang Tingli pursed his lips and said, "Why did my cousin tell me this? Didn't we already have a falling out?"
She was just pretending.
In fact, she already roughly knew Yu Lanxi's purpose. In Yu Lanxi's view, no matter whether Ke Xingchen was on the side of the Crown Prince or the Second Prince, as long as they could alienate the relationship between them or cause them to fight each other, it would be a good thing for their party of the Fourth Prince.
Now that Yu Lanxi has exposed her true colors, she will definitely not believe him if he continues to say that he was just making an analogy. Yu Lanxi is trying to minimize the losses.
But unfortunately, Yu Lanxi's plan was ultimately doomed to fail.
"..." Yu Lanxi was choked by her words for a moment, "I have said so many heart-to-heart words to my cousin, but she still wants to draw a line between us?"
This bitch is really difficult to deal with.
She was almost talking so much, but she still looked skeptical. Please, she didn't lie to her.
Shang Tingli smiled and said, "One must remember the sufferings one has endured."
"Besides, this is just my cousin's one-sided statement. How can I tell whether it's true or not? What if my cousin is lying to me—"
Yu Lanxi almost couldn't stand it anymore: "Why would I lie to you?"
Shang Tingli asked, "How can I know?"
Yu Lanxi gritted her teeth: "You're asking if you don't know?"
Shang Tingli bared his teeth: "How can we confirm it without asking?"
Yu Lanxi: “…”
She took a deep breath, and after her breathing became normal, she held the teacup and took a sip.
She really couldn't understand her father, such a bitch, why did he want to repair the relationship? It was broken, it was not a good relationship in the first place.
It was also her own fault for not thinking it through and just handing over her cards without thinking it through clearly. Now, she was filled with rage.
Since Shang Tingli was not tactful, she had no choice but to use some means to make her tactful.
"I told my cousin the truth. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not as kind as he appears to be. He is a sinister villain in private. Being loyal to such a person will not end well."
Shang Tingli: “…”
If "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince" is replaced with "His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince" in this statement, then it would be true.
After such a conversation, she had already seen that Yu Lanxi was still the same Yu Lanxi, she really hadn't changed at all, simple-minded, bad-tempered, and ambitious, wanting to trample everyone under her feet.
