Traveling through time and space, being replaced by a bride, happily married into a marquis's m

At this time, the atmosphere in the Shangshu Mansion was so tense that it could almost be described as a fight between swords.

The Minister of Rites, Lu Dinglian, had a sullen face, and paced back and forth in the spacious study with his hands behind his back.

Every step he took seemed to step on Mrs. Lu's heart. She was kneeling in the middle of the study, tears streaming down her face.

"My dear husband, I know I was wrong, I was wrong!" Mrs. Lu cried, her voice trembling, "I just wanted Yundi to have a good home, but I didn't expect... I didn't expect something like this to happen."

Lu Dinglian stopped and stared at Madam Lu with sharp eyes, "You are wrong? You are indeed wrong! It's all your fault for taking the initiative to marry that damn girl Lu Yundi to the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery's Mansion. This is putting our entire Shangshu Mansion in a fire pit! Yundi, that girl, dared to go wild in the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery's Mansion on the day of the wedding and beat up the old marquis's precious grandson. How shameful!"

Lu Wanqing stood aside, her face pale, her lips tightly pursed, she gently pulled her mother's sleeve and whispered, "Mother, don't say anything, it's all my fault."

Lu Dinglian turned his head and looked at Lu Wanqing, a complex emotion flashing in his eyes.

He took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down. "Wanqing, you are too impulsive. Marriage is a serious matter, how can it be treated as a joke?"

Lu Wanqing lowered her head, not daring to look her father in the eye.

"Father, I..." Lu Wanqing hesitated to speak.

Lu Dinglian waved his hand and interrupted her. "You don't have to say anything. I know what you are thinking. But your first task now is to apologize to the Loyal and Brave Marquis Mansion and ask for their forgiveness."

Lu Wanqing bit her lower lip and nodded, "I understand, father."

The atmosphere in the study eased a little, but was still tense.

Lu Dinglian looked at his wife and daughter kneeling on the ground, and felt helpless and sad.

"Madam, please get up." Lu Dinglian said in a deep voice, "We must handle this matter properly. Wanqing, you should also go and get ready. We will go to the Mansion of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery later."

Mrs. Lu and Lu Wanqing looked up at the same time and looked at Lu Dinglian in surprise.

Mrs. Lu wiped away her tears and asked carefully, "My husband, are you really willing to let Wanqing apologize?"

Lu Dinglian glanced at Madam Lu coldly, "Do I have any choice?"

After saying this, he helped Madam Lu and Lu Wanqing to stand up.

Just then, the butler Fu Bo walked into the study in a hurry, with an excitement and solemnity on his face that was difficult to conceal.

He bowed to Lu Dinglian and Madam Lu, then straightened up and whispered, "Master, Madam, the old master and old lady of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery left Beijing this morning and went to Qingdao for recuperation. They handed over the management of the Marquis' Mansion to the third lady Lu Yundi and recognized her as the mistress of the Marquis' Mansion."

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the study room suddenly became tense again. Lu Dinglian and Mrs. Lu's faces turned pale instantly, while Lu Wanqing's eyes flashed with a hint of surprise.

Lu Dinglian stared at Uncle Fu coldly, with a barely perceptible tremor in his voice: "Are you saying that Yun Di has become the mistress of the Loyal and Brave Marquis's Mansion?"

Uncle Fu nodded slightly, his tone firm: "Yes, sir. The old marquis and the old lady think highly of the third girl and think she has the bearing of a lady of the marquis family, so they made this decision."

Lu Dinglian had regained some composure, with a complex expression flashing across his eyes. He took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down: "Uncle Fu, is this news reliable?"

Uncle Fu said firmly, "It's reliable. The news has spread all over the capital now."

Lu Dinglian was silent for a moment, then turned to look at Lu Wanqing, only to see a gleam of joy in her eyes.

His heart tightened, and his tone became stern: "Wanqing, what do you think?"

Lu Wanqing was slightly startled, then lowered her eyes and said softly, "Father, I think this is a good thing. It is an honor for our family that Sister Yundi is valued by the old marquis and the old lady. As for my daughter, as long as she can marry Shen Jilian, I will be satisfied."

Lu Dinglian looked at Lu Wanqing with a look of disappointment and sighed.

Instead of accepting such great wealth, he gave it to Lu Yundi for nothing.

……

The Mansion of the Loyal and Brave Marquis, early morning.

The first ray of sunlight shone through the window lattice onto the exquisitely carved wooden bed. Lu Yundi slowly opened her eyes, and a bright light flashed in them. She stretched herself and felt refreshed and full of strength.

The maid Hongying had been waiting by the bed. Seeing this, she immediately picked up a new set of clothes and said with a smile, "Madam, today is a fine day. Hongying specially picked out a new set of clothes for you. Please change into them."

Lu Yundi smiled and nodded, letting Hongying change her clothes.

She stood in front of the mirror, looked at her delicate face, and nodded with satisfaction.

Afterwards, she took Hongying and set off for Fufeng Garden.

Fufeng Garden is Yan Canglan's residence.

At this moment in the room, Yan Canglan was sitting on a brocade cushion with a gloomy face and anger between his brows.

When Lu Yundi entered the garden, she heard Yan Canglan's roar. She raised a provocative smile and slowly walked into the room.

"Yan Canglan, I heard that you were angry. Are you mad because you couldn't beat me yesterday?" Lu Yundi's voice was as clear as a string of silver bells, with a hint of teasing.

Yan Canglan raised his head, a hint of surprise flashed across his eyes, and then he glared at Lu Yundi angrily: "You, say it again!"

Lu Yundi smiled slightly, raised his eyebrows and repeated: "I said, are you angry because you couldn't beat me yesterday?"

Yan Canglan's face became increasingly gloomy. He slammed the table and stood up, shouting angrily, "Bad woman, you're looking for death!"

Hongying turned pale with fright. She immediately stood in front of Lu Yundi and looked at Yan Canglan nervously.

Lu Yundi was not afraid at all, but smiled even more brightly.

"Oh? Then I want to see how you can make me die."

There was a hint of hesitation in Yan Canglan's eyes, but he couldn't suppress the anger in his heart and swung his fist towards Lu Yundi.

Lu Yundi dodged easily with a smug smile on his face.

"You can't hit me."

Yan Canglan roared and rushed towards Lu Yundi again. The two of them fought back and forth, launching a fierce contest.

Hongying watched the fight nervously, secretly worrying for her wife.

However, to her surprise, Lu Yundi was extremely agile. She cleverly dodged Yan Canglan's attacks and even counterattacked from time to time.

Yan Canglan gradually became out of breath, with beads of sweat oozing out of his forehead.

"You...are you really a woman?" Yan Canglan gasped and looked at Lu Yundi in disbelief.

Lu Yundi smiled lightly and said, "It seems that you have a new respect for me. However, I also tell you that I could beat you yesterday, and I can beat you today as well."

A hint of frustration flashed across Yan Canglan's eyes, but he quickly adjusted his mentality and pounced on Lu Yundi again.

This time, he was more cautious and did not attack easily.
