She was buried alive at the start, but she's determined to smash her ex-husband's head in

“It’s not for him!” Yun Ciwan said immediately. “This visit to the Grand Commander is for my own sake, but it will definitely benefit you in the future.”

Yun Ciwan has a trump card, a trump card that no one can refuse, but she cannot reveal it now.

She couldn't understand why Pei Zhaoan had helped her last time, nor could she be sure if he would be so kind this time, but this was indeed her only chance at the moment.

"The master once said that one bead could be used to ask the master for a favor. I wonder if that still holds true now?"

"I never lie about what I've said."

Standing to the side, Xia An couldn't help but purse her lips. This was the biggest lie ever...

Yun Ciwan's hair was still dripping wet, and she looked disheveled, but her back was straight, and she looked at Pei Zhaoan with a determined gaze: "Please help me with two things, sir."

"tell me the story."

"First, Xu Hanzhang's first wife, Yun Ciwan, is dead. I need a new identity that will allow me to establish myself in the capital. Second, I need a female corpse to be placed in a coffin at the foot of the mountain north of the capital tonight."

The absurd request made Xia An's eyes widen, and Pei Zhao'an also frowned.

What happened during the days when he didn't send anyone to follow him?

Pei Zhaoan's expression grew increasingly worse. Yun Ciwan thought that her request was too much. He had only said it casually, and she had actually taken it seriously. How ridiculous.

Taking a deep breath, Yun Ciwan commanded herself to calm down. It's okay, let's think of other ways, there must be other ways.

She had to return to the capital, or she would never see Zhao Huarong again!

"I have been presumptuous. Please forget about tonight, sir..."

“What a coincidence,” Pei Zhaoan said. “I do have an identity I can give you. As for whether you can return to the capital smoothly, that depends on your own abilities.”

She looked up and met Pei Zhaoan's ambiguous smile, and suddenly felt a chill, as if she had fallen into a wolf's den.

In a brightly lit village on the outskirts of the city, the old women and maids were going crazy as they looked at the person hanging from the rafters!

How could this be? How could it be! Of all times, she had to die at this moment! Miss isn't the type to be so despondent!

The Lin family will be here tomorrow! Even if the eldest young lady isn't favored, she's still the master's eldest daughter. If the master finds out that she died mysteriously on the estate, wouldn't that make them all pay with their lives?

Just as everyone was in a panic, two figures appeared in the rainy night.

"Mother Li, why is everyone still gathered here so late?"

The old woman, addressed as Mama Li, looked at the woman before her with suspicion: "Who are you?"

"The rain is too heavy, didn't you see clearly, Madam Li?" Yun Ciwan stepped forward with a smile. "It's me, Lin Qingwei, the eldest daughter of the Lin family."

Mrs. Li's face darkened as she pointed at Yun Ciwan: "Nonsense! How could you possibly be the young lady!"

Where did this person come from, daring to call herself the eldest daughter of the Lin family! Does she think they're all fools? Lin Qingwei was just lowered from the roof beam! She's dead!

“Am I not?” Yun Ciwan was not annoyed, and still had a smile on her face. “How could Mother be confused? Father will send someone to pick me up tomorrow. It has been thirteen years since we last met. I think Father has almost forgotten what I look like.”

"This trip back home is for the selection of a companion for Princess Yuanjia. If it weren't for the Emperor's decree that all daughters of officials of the sixth rank or above must enter the palace for selection, my father and mother probably wouldn't have remembered me."

Yun Ciwan said unhurriedly, "I remember all the good things my mother has done for me over the years. When we return to the Lin family, I will definitely tell my father and ask him to reward Li Mama properly. Your good days are yet to come."

After hearing this, Madam Li broke out in a cold sweat. The person before her knew the Lin family inside and out, even knowing exactly when the eldest young lady left the mansion! She had come prepared at the appointed time! She had to be on guard!

But what she said wasn't wrong; apart from the four or five people on the estate, no one really knew what Lin Qingwei looked like now...

If the master discovers that the young lady has committed suicide, no one on the estate will escape! But if this person impersonates the young lady and goes back, there might still be a glimmer of hope!

While Li's mother was struggling with her decision, Yun Ciwan walked straight into the house, smiling as she called out each person's name accurately.

Seeing this, Li's mother gritted her teeth and chased after him. Either way, she was going to get stabbed, so she might as well take a gamble. It was better than sitting and waiting to die!

"Xiao Mei! Go and make a bowl of ginger soup. The wind and rain are too strong. Be careful that Miss doesn't catch a cold!" She held Yun Ciwan's arm and said with a smile, "I must have seen things. Please forgive me, Miss."

The maids below were already terrified by Lin Qingwei's death and were all worried that they wouldn't live to see tomorrow. At this moment, when Mama Li stepped forward and recognized this person as the eldest young lady, then she must be the eldest young lady!

Xiaomei wiped away her tears and immediately replied, "Okay! This servant will go right away!"

Chunqi, who was following Yun Ciwan—or rather, Lin Qingwei—couldn't help but give a thumbs up.

She confirmed her identity with just a few words and even got these people to willingly play along with her. The adults' judgment is indeed excellent; she's a formidable character!

Lin Qingwei calmly directed everyone to move the body to the foot of the mountain to the north, watching them put the body into the coffin. But the moment the coffin lid was closed, she couldn't help but feel a little helpless.

His eyes turned bloodshot; he was filled with hatred. How could he not hate?

She never imagined that her kindness would one day become the sharpest arrow aimed at her.

Looking at the grave that should have been hers, Lin Qingwei clenched her fists.

I know you didn't commit suicide. Now that I've taken your identity, I will definitely find your killer. Don't worry.

"Go back." She turned around.

Tomorrow will be the real battle. Since it wasn't someone from the manor who killed her, it must have been someone from the Lin family. Someone doesn't want Lin Qingwei to go back, but she must return to the capital openly and honestly.

Before leaving, Madam Li was still a little worried and couldn't help but remind her, "If I may be so bold, Madam may not sincerely welcome you back to the manor for the sake of the Second Miss. Miss, you should make plans as soon as possible."

"Thank you for reminding me, Mom. For my sake and for yours, please don't say anything wrong tomorrow."

Madam Li became even more respectful: "Don't worry, Miss, we will follow you to the death!"

The next morning, the Lin family sent people to pick up Lin Qingwei.

Xiao Mei was furious when she went to greet them. She thought the people sent by the madam would make things difficult, but she never expected them to be this outrageous!

If the real eldest daughter of the Lin family hadn't died, she would probably have been so angry that she would have died of anger upon seeing this scene!

Lin Qingwei came out, glanced at the house, and walked back inside without looking back. The coachman who came to pick her up, however, was arrogant and looked down on her.
