Quick transmigration to punish scumbags, have a child to inherit everything from them

"Granny, what's wrong?"

When Cao saw Wang Mama being helped back, her eyes showed undisguised surprise.

"Your Highness, this old servant was just accidentally hit by Miss Yan Li's whip. As long as the young master is unharmed, this little injury is nothing."

Granny Wang was in so much pain that her face turned pale, but she was still trying to explain for Yan Li. However, Madam Cao was clearly not buying it and immediately became furious.

"What? She actually dared to hit Shu'er and even injured you! This Yan Li has really gone too far!"

"Those commoners from the streets have no manners! I'm going to have a serious talk with the Prince. How can they let Yan Li run rampant in the Prince's mansion with a whip!"

Cao's face was full of anger, and her disgust for Yan Li grew even stronger.

He was about to leave when Shen Shu came in and stopped him.

"Mother, where are you going?"

Seeing that Madam Cao's expression was not good, and then noticing Granny Wang standing to the side, Shen Shu already guessed what had happened.

"What do you think? You should spend less time with that Yan Li in the future. She's not worth your time."

I need to have a serious talk with your father. Yan Li is an adopted daughter of the royal family, and for the sake of the family's reputation, she should be properly taught manners. How can we allow her to run rampant in the mansion with a whip!

Cao said angrily, and Shen Shu was anxious, so he could only try to appease Cao first.

"Mother, please calm down. You've misunderstood Yan Li. She didn't mean to harm anyone; she just accidentally hurt Granny Wang. Please don't blame her."

Shen Shu didn't know how to explain, so he could only keep saying good things about Yan Li to Cao Shi, but Cao Shi didn't listen to much and became even angrier.

"You...you've learned to side with outsiders now? She injured your mother's wet nurse, and you're still defending her!"

Seeing that Cao Shi was even angrier, Shen Shu couldn't think of a good solution for a moment, but what Yan Li had just told him flashed through his mind.

"Mother, I just love Yan Li, no matter what. If you can't accept him, then... then I won't come anymore!"

Shen Shu took a deep breath and said these words. After he finished speaking, he turned around and was about to leave. When Cao Shi saw her son like this, she no longer cared about Yan Li and wanted to pull Shen Shu away.

But Shen Shu was ruthless; without turning his head, he strode away.

Cao couldn't catch up and almost couldn't catch her breath.

"What a terrible thing! What a terrible thing! What sins have I committed to have such an unfilial son!"

Wang Mama, who was being supported by someone, looked at him with heartache and comforted him.

"Your Highness, the young master still has feelings for you, but he has been bewitched by Yan Li. This old servant has a suggestion, but I don't know if I should say it."

Upon hearing this, Cao hurriedly spoke.

"Granny, please tell me quickly. I'm willing to try anything as long as I can get Shu'er away from Yan Li."

Upon hearing this, Wang Mama's eyes flashed with a shrewd light, and she said...

"Your Highness, you can do this..."

……

Just as Cao Shi finished arguing with Shen Shu, Prince Duan received the news.

"You had a big fight?"

Prince Duan's tone was awkward, and Qian Youqian couldn't discern his emotions at the moment, so he could only bite the bullet and answer.

"Yes, it was quite a commotion; the concubine even smashed her lunch."

Prince Duan did not actually object to Shen Shu's affection for Yan Li, but he shook his head at Shen Shu's way of handling the matter.

That was too impulsive; it showed no thought whatsoever.

He didn't want to be patient and know how to take things slowly. He also didn't know if the young girl would cry like before when she went back after failing to break off her engagement with Shen Shu.

As Prince Duan pondered, his thoughts drifted far away.

Qian Youqian was uneasy as he saw that Prince Duan had not spoken, thinking that the prince was angry. But when he looked up, he found that the prince's expression was gentle and there was even a slight smile on his lips.

Qian Youqian was astonished. What was the prince thinking?

"Your Majesty, you..."

Qian Youqian tentatively spoke, trying to gauge the Prince Duan's intentions.

Prince Duan then snapped out of his thoughts. He had wanted Yan Li to marry Shen Shu, but after today's commotion, he had to reconsider.

"Go to the storeroom yourself and pick out some things to send to Madam Cao, so that she knows that I have my own plans regarding Shen Shu's marriage."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Qian Youqian accepted the order and was about to step down when he heard Prince Duan say something else.

"You should also have someone send some things to Liang Qiuli as compensation from the Prince Duan's residence."

Qian Youqian was taken aback. Why was the prince so concerned about Miss Liang? However, he would naturally obey the prince's orders.

……

"Miss Liang, this is a piece of Jiangnan silk, along with some gold hairpins and jade ornaments, specially ordered by the Prince to be sent to you. Consider it compensation for what happened today."

Qian Youqian had his things put down and looked at Liang Qiuli, who was sitting on the couch in a daze. This Miss Liang was really unlucky.

Although she was engaged to the eldest son, Shen Shu, the whole manor now knows about the eldest son's affair with Yan Li because of the trouble he and Consort Cao caused.

Furthermore, with both her parents deceased and no one to support her, whether the engagement should be kept or cancelled depends entirely on the wishes of the masters of the Prince's Mansion.

Even if she does get in, I'm afraid life won't be easy.

"Yes, thank you, Steward Qian. Please convey my gratitude to the Prince for his reward."

Liang Qiuli snapped out of her daze and responded faintly, her eyes filled with undisguised loneliness.

Qian Youqian nodded, knowing that Liang Qiuli was probably in a bad mood, so he didn't stay any longer and left after saying goodbye.

As Liang Qiuli watched Qian Youqian's figure completely disappear, she immediately regained her composure and relaxed.

She took a deep breath and thought to herself.

The bait has been laid; now we're just waiting for the big fish, Duan Wang, to take the bait.

Prince Duan thought he was a hunter, pressing her step by step, waiting for her to beg him to cancel the engagement. Little did he know that every step of this was a trap she had set.

After finishing her dinner that day, Liang Qiuli went to bed early.

……

“Miss, even if you don’t like Young Master Shen, you can’t ruin this wedding dress. It was sewn by the Madam and the embroiderers with great effort, stitch by stitch.”

Prince Duan heard a series of anxious voices. He frowned slightly and tried to open his eyes.

What I saw was Liang Qiuli sitting on a soft couch, holding scissors in her hand, about to cut into the bright red wedding dress.

Prince Duan immediately realized that he was dreaming. He remembered that Liang Qiuli was wearing this wedding dress in the last time he dreamed.

"Zhu Lu, Shen Shu and Yan Li are in love, so what am I? I don't want to marry Shen Shu, so what's the point of keeping this wedding dress?"

As Liang Qiuli spoke, the scissors were about to fall.

Although Prince Duan knew it was just a dream, he didn't want Liang Qiuli to ruin the wedding dress, so he rushed to the soft couch and snatched the scissors from Liang Qiuli's hand.

"Ah! Who are you?"

Liang Qiuli was clearly startled by the man who suddenly appeared in her boudoir. She leaned back quickly, her round eyes staring at the man whose face she couldn't see.
