Quick Transmigration: The Cannon Fodder Female Supporting Character's Revenge

Qi Ning turned her gaze and, sure enough, saw Qi Jinglin riding a tall horse.

She didn't say anything more and, guided by the servant, walked towards the first carriage.

Dongxue helped Qi Ning into the carriage.

The carriage looked quite large from the outside, but with three adults and one child inside—four masters in total—along with the maids who served them, it naturally felt crowded.

Not long after Qi Ning boarded the carriage, Qi Jingyu slowly walked out of the Marquis's residence.

The servant led him to the second carriage.

Before he got into the carriage, Qi Jinglin rode his horse to the side and watched him, giving a meaningful laugh.

Xiuzhu frowned after hearing the laughter. In his opinion, the eldest young master was mocking the second young master's legs.

If it weren't for the second young master's leg ailment, he could ride a horse, so why would he be riding in a carriage like a woman?

Qi Jingyu seemed oblivious to this, and with his eyes fixed straight ahead, he was helped into the carriage by Xiuzhu.

"Host, Qi Jingyu has boarded that problematic carriage," the system warned.

"Mm," Qi Ning replied.

Just as they were about to set off, Qi Ning suddenly spoke up: "Aunt, Mother, this carriage is a bit crowded. Why don't I take the one in the back?"

"Do you want to ride in the carriage in the back?" Zeng Wanqing asked in surprise.

Upon hearing this, the First Madam also lifted her eyelids, pondering something in her heart.

"Yes," Qi Ning replied.

"The person sitting in that carriage looks like your second brother."

Zeng Wanqing knew about the conflict between Qi Ning and Qi Jingyu, and was worried that they might quarrel if they were together, so she gave them a reminder.

“I know, is there anything wrong with this?” Qi Ning asked.

“What could be wrong with that?” the First Madam interjected.

She smiled and said, "Ning'er is right. There are many people in our carriage. Jinglin is riding a horse, and there is only Jingyu in the carriage behind. It's fine for Ning'er to go and ride there. They are siblings, so there's nothing wrong with them riding in the same carriage."

The carriage was tampered with by the First Madam and Qi Jinglin to scheme against Qi Jingyu; they didn't think much of it in other aspects.

But after hearing Qi Ning's words, the First Madam had a sudden inspiration.

It would be good to let Qi Ning get on that carriage too; we can deal with her all at once.

Because of Qi Yuan's drowning and subsequent marriage to Du Yaowu, the First Madam harbored some resentment towards Qi Ning. If she could take this opportunity to deal with Qi Ning as well, it would be a way to vent her anger and avenge her Yuan'er.

Moreover, if something were to happen to the two siblings together, Zeng Wanqing, as their stepmother, would be implicated and would definitely be the first to be suspected. This would sow discord between Zeng Wanqing and Qi Congming, achieving three goals at once.

Qi Ning understood what the First Madam was thinking, but she didn't expose her. She just smiled and said, "Aunt is right."

Since the First Madam and Qi Ning had both said so, Zeng Wanqing naturally had no reason to stop them.

"fair enough."

Upon hearing this, Qi Tang, who was sitting to the side, quickly said, "Sister, sister, I want to go with you too."

But Qi Ning refused.

"Tang'er, you can stay here with your mother. Didn't you want to learn chess from me?"

"But……"

Qi Tang wanted to go with Qi Ning, but she also wanted to learn chess from Zeng Wanqing. She looked left and right, feeling extremely conflicted.

Qi Ning looked at her and said, "The carriage behind us doesn't have a chessboard or so many pastries. Have you thought it through?"

Qi Tang reluctantly said, "Alright then, elder sister, I'll learn to play chess with Mother first, and then I'll join you halfway there."

"Okay," Qi Ning agreed.

She reached out and touched Qi Tang's head before getting off the carriage.

Qi Jingyu was leaning against the carriage with his eyes closed, waiting to depart.

Suddenly, there was a noise outside his carriage.

The coachman saw Qi Ning arrive with Dongxue and quickly greeted her, "Second Miss."

Xiuzhu also greeted her, and he found it a bit strange: "Second Miss, what brings you here?"

Dongxue replied on Qi Ning's behalf: "The carriage in front is too crowded. Our young lady wants to ride in the one in the back."

“The second young master is inside this carriage,” Xiuzhu said.

"So what? The second young master is inside, so why can't our young lady go up?" Dongxue retorted.

"Winter snow".

Qi Ning called out to her, signaling her to say less, and then extended her hand to her.

Dongxue quickly helped Qi Ning into the carriage.

Qi Jingyu listened to the conversation outside and looked towards the carriage curtain.

Sure enough, the carriage curtain was lifted the next moment, and Qi Ning, dressed in a light purple dress and wearing a matching cloak, bent down and entered.

She glanced at him, snorted, and sat down a distance away on the other side, clearly not wanting to acknowledge him.

Qi Jingyu parted his lips slightly, but ultimately said nothing.

She dislikes him, so he should refrain from saying anything that might upset her.

Dongxue originally wanted to follow Qi Ning into the carriage to serve him, but Qi Ning said, "It's not very spacious in here, Dongxue, you should sit outside."

"Yes."

Dongxue didn't think too much about it and sat on either side of the driver, along with Xiuzhu.

Qi Jinglin was puzzled by this scene, so he rode his horse to the first carriage.

Upon hearing the sound of horses' hooves, the First Madam slightly lifted the curtain and gave him a look.

Qi Jinglin quickly understood the First Madam's meaning and did not stop Qi Ning and Qi Jingyu from riding together.

Before long, everything was ready.

Qi Jinglin shouted "Let's go!" from outside, and the convoy slowly started moving.

When the Marquis's carriage arrived at the city gate, it joined the carriages of other officials' families and then followed the imperial carriage to Lingshan.

Qi Congming did not travel with the women and children of the Marquis's mansion today, but instead accompanied the Emperor's entourage.

After the procession officially set off, Qi Jingyu, inside the carriage, closed his eyes again.

Qi Ning sat on the outer side, and Dong Xue would occasionally lift the curtain to hand her things.

When they came to this carriage just now, Dongxue brought a lot of things with her.

The master and servant chattered away.

"Miss, are you cold? Would you like a hand warmer?"

"not cold."

Are you hungry? Would you like some snacks?

"I'm not very hungry, I'll eat later. I'd like to have some tea first."

"Yes, then this servant will pour you some tea."

Dongxue put the hand warmer and pastries aside for the time being, and poured a cup of tea for Qi Ning.

"Miss, this tea is a bit hot, please be careful."

Qi Ning took the teacup and responded with a "Mm".

Qi Jingyu felt the girl's sweet voice linger in his ears for a long time before it gradually quieted down.

Qi Ning held the teacup, took a small sip, and then placed the teacup on the wobbly little table inside the carriage.

She raised her eyes and glanced at Qi Jingyu, who was still keeping his eyes closed, seemingly trying to minimize his presence.

Qi Ning curled her lips into a smile.

She knew, of course, that the carriage had been tampered with; that the First Madam and Qi Jinglin were trying to kill Qi Jingyu.

Qi Ning came here on purpose.

In the original storyline, when the carriage was halfway there, the horses, which had been drugged beforehand, would suddenly go berserk.
