The elder sister killed the whole family, and came back to be beaten to death

Shen Tang sat on the bed, looking at everything in front of him in disbelief.

The previous moment, she was hanged on the beam and closed her eyes with hatred and unwillingness. But when she opened her eyes again, she saw the boudoir where she had lived for more than ten years before she got married.

But her boudoir had been burned to ruins four years ago, on the night she got married, when Shen Xi "accidentally" knocked over a candlestick.

But now it was intact in front of her eyes, and there was a faint pain at the back of her head, so clear that it made her doubt that she was not dead, but still alive.

What exactly is going on?

Shen Tang had a splitting headache.

"Girl, why are you sitting up? Does your head still hurt?"

A familiar voice of concern came, and Shen Tang's body went numb. She turned her head to look at the bead curtain, and saw her personal maid Ginkgo, who had drowned in the lotus pond in the palace three years ago, appear vividly in front of her.

That pretty face was full of worry for her, which made Shen Tang's nose sore and tears welled up.

Ginkgo walked towards her in two steps, put down the medicine bowl in his hand, and came over to rub the back of her head.

She kept cursing, "Second Madam is such a jerk! When the eldest girl fainted, she rushed to help her. She shouldn't have been keeping an eye on her, but she actually pushed you into the pillar. When the third girl burned her hand, Second Madam didn't seem so worried. If you didn't know, you'd think the eldest girl was her biological child."

Isn’t Shen Xi the second wife’s biological daughter?

Shen Tang replied in his heart.

and many more!

Didn’t the second wife bump into her the day before the substitute marriage?

Could it be that she was reborn before her marriage after her death?

As this thought flashed through his mind, Shen Tang's heart began to beat violently, as if it was about to jump out of his mouth.

If it was true, then not only she and Ginkgo were still alive, but also her father, grandfather, and cousin were all alive and well, and even Xie Guimo...

Thinking about how she married Xie Guimo, the prince of Jingyang in her previous life, Shen Tang curled up the corners of her mouth in a sarcastic smile.

He was mocking himself and also mocking Xie Guimo.

The person who was engaged to Xie Guimo was not her, Shen Tang, but Shen Ying.

Their marriage was arranged half a year ago. It was decided very suddenly, like a big pie falling from the sky and hitting Shen Xi on the head.

Although the Pingyuan Marquis' Mansion had a good status in the court, it was still far behind the Jingyang Prince's Mansion.

The Jingyang Palace is the only royal palace of a different surname in the Ning Dynasty. It holds a large number of troops and is deeply trusted by the emperor. The Princess of Jingyang is a cousin of the current emperor's favorite concubine, Concubine Ye. The Prince of Jingyang not only has a good family background, but also has unparalleled looks. Shen Xian's engagement with him has aroused a lot of envy and jealousy.

From the day the engagement was made, Shen Xing looked forward to marrying the Prince of Jingyang as soon as possible.

But with an assassination, everything changed.

The second prince went out of the palace to hunt and was attacked. The Prince of Jingyang risked his life to save him, but was shot by an arrow and fell into a coma, and died of the poison.

The life of Prince Jingyang was hanging by a thread, and Shen Ying was so worried that she couldn't eat or sleep, so she accompanied him to the Jokhang Temple to burn incense and pray. Shen Ying accidentally knocked over the Jokhang Temple's fortune stick holder, and a bad fortune stick fell out.

The fortune said that if she got married within three days, she would definitely become a widow. Shen Xian was so angry that she turned around and went back home. When she came back, she happened to meet people from Prince Jingyang's Mansion who were sending her away with a phoenix coronet and a bridal robe.

The imperial physician was helpless against the poison that Prince Jingyang had contracted. The Jingyang Palace had no other options but to try all sorts of remedies and pin their hopes on a happy marriage.

Shen Xian was feeling anxious because of the bad fortune. When she heard that the wedding would be the day after tomorrow, her face turned pale and she fainted after taking a few steps.

The maidservant shouted anxiously. Before Shen Tang could react, the second wife who came to help Shen Xi pushed her against a pillar. She was so hurt that she saw stars.

A quarter of an hour ago, Shen Tang had not yet suspected that she and Shen Xian were not biological sisters. In her previous life, she was afraid that the fortune-telling would come true and her elder sister would become a widow if she married the Prince of Jingyang. Seeing her worried about this, her other personal maid Doukou suggested to her that if the eldest girl also fell ill, perhaps there would be no need to marry the Prince of Jingyang.

She was so anxious that she lost her mind and actually believed the maid's instigation and secretly drugged Shen Xi. Shen Xi was ill and could not get out of bed, but she did not hide the fact that she drugged her, or no one hid it for her at all. In the end, it became known to everyone in Kyoto, and angered the Jingyang Palace and Concubine Ye. They said that since she loved her elder sister so much, she should marry her elder sister to bring good luck.

In order to prevent her elder sister from becoming a widow, she got on the bridal sedan with tears in her eyes. She was mentally prepared to be a widow for the rest of her life. However, the wedding proposal she thought was nonsense actually worked. On the night of her wedding, the Prince of Jingyang, who had been in a coma for seven days and seven nights, woke up.

As the Crown Prince's concubine who married in place of her husband, she was in a difficult situation.

In everyone's eyes, she became a vicious and scheming younger sister who tried to snatch her elder sister's marriage. During the four years she was married to Xie Guimo, they never had a chance to talk to each other calmly. I don't know how many people said behind her back that she deserved it and that it was all her own fault.

She was ridiculed and mocked, but before he died, he told her that the person Xie Guimo loved in his heart was her. How could she believe it?

She no longer dared to trust anyone easily.

She is devoted to her elder sister and would rather be the widow, but how does her elder sister treat her?

Kill her flesh and blood and take her life!

Xie Guimo was almost killed for saving the second prince. As soon as the second prince took that position, he couldn't wait to get rid of him.

They are both really ridiculous.

Shen Tang closed his eyes, hiding the hatred that was overflowing from his eyes.

Now that God has given her a second chance to live, she will never repeat the mistakes of her previous life!

She will pay back tenfold or a hundredfold the pain they inflicted on her in her previous life!

She wants them to pay with blood!

If she remembered correctly, her treacherous maid would be here to offer her advice soon...

As I was thinking this, I heard the footsteps of a maid.

Doukou came in through the beaded curtain, and Ginkgo asked her, "Miss, are you okay?"

Doukou shook her head, "The girl has been crying since she woke up..."

She looked at Shen Tang, "Miss, if you marry the Prince of Jingyang, you won't really become a widow, right? The eldest lady treats me so well, I must not let her jump into this fire pit."

Shen Xian can't jump into the fire pit, but she can do it, right?

Thinking about her previous life when she married Xie Guimo and how the first fierce quarrel between them was caused by this maid, Shen Tang felt upset.

She married Xie Guimo to bring good luck. After Xie Guimo recovered from his injury, he accompanied her back to his parents' home and returned to the Jingyang Palace. She thanked him for giving her enough respect, but the next moment Doukou went to the study behind her back to seduce Xie Guimo, and said that she was the one who asked him to go, leaving her speechless. Shen Tang still can't forget the look on Xie Guimo's face when he was so angry that he wanted to eat her alive.

Shen Tang didn't say anything. Doukou felt that the second girl looked at her with cold eyes, which made her feel a chill down her spine for some reason. But when she wanted to look more closely, it seemed like it was just her illusion.

Doukou calmed down and said, "I have a good idea to help you, young lady..."

Shen Tang knew what the good idea was, but he pretended not to know and asked, "What good idea?"

Doukou came forward and whispered, "The Jingyang Palace wants the eldest daughter to come to the bridal sedan to bring good luck, but if the eldest daughter is unwell and can't get into the bridal sedan, the Jingyang Palace can't force her..."

Swish.

Shen Tang's face suddenly turned cold. "Do you think everyone in the Jingyang Palace is stupid? My eldest sister was able to go to the Jokhang Temple today, but when she came back and found out about the wedding, she fell ill and couldn't get on the bridal sedan. You might as well let me go directly to the Jingyang Palace to cancel the engagement for her. That would be more straightforward!"

Shen Tang rarely loses his temper, but his expression suddenly changed. Doukou was so frightened that she fell to her knees. "Please calm down, young lady. I was also worried about the eldest lady. I thought you would be willing to bear a few insults for the eldest lady..."

After these words came out, if she didn't do this, she would be disregarding her eldest sister's lifelong happiness.

Even a maid wanted to control her.

Thinking about how she had really fallen into the trap they had set for her in her past life, Shen Tang was furious and felt stupid. "Is this just a matter of bearing a few insults?!"

"Prince Jingyang is seriously ill and urgently needs a wedding to save his life. If my elder sister doesn't want to marry, she can cancel the engagement. The Jingyang Palace will always find someone willing to marry. I secretly drugged her. Tomorrow, the Jingyang Palace's bridal sedan won't be able to pick her up, delaying the Jingyang Prince's wedding. If he's fine, that's fine. But if he unfortunately dies from the poison, will the Jingyang Palace and Concubine Ye let me off so easily?!"

"Gingxing, slap her in the face so she'll learn a lesson and know what to say and what not to say!"
