If I were born again, I would marry a strong but short-lived husband.

Chapter 291 Guangning, Go to Huainan



Chapter 291 Guangning, Go to Huainan

On the first day that Guangning was under house arrest, she suppressed her temper and asked the person guarding the door to invite the second prince.

She begged the Second Prince to let her go and promised not to cause trouble for Shen Sui'an again.

But the second prince did not agree to her.

The next day, she smashed everything in the house.

On the third day, she began to torture the servants in the princess's mansion.

Concubine Yao ordered her to be locked up and not allowed to see anyone except for three meals a day.

Guangning was crying and laughing, acting crazy. No matter how she smashed things or even tried to hurt herself, she could not make Concubine Yao and the Second Prince show mercy.

She finally realized that it was impossible for Concubine Yao to forgive her easily this time, so Guangning had no choice but to be well-behaved and obedient.

Finally, half a month later, Concubine Yao sent someone to bring her into the palace.

"Guangning, your father has given Huainan to you. Huainan will be your fiefdom from now on. You..." Concubine Yao glanced at her daughter.

You can tell at a glance that her obedience is just an act.

The gentle smile on Guangning's lips froze, and a strong resentment burst out from his eyes.

"Mother, you want to drive me out of Shangjing City? You don't want me anymore?"

Imperial Concubine Yao turned her face away and didn't look at her, fearing that she would not be able to control her feelings.

"You should go to Huainan to recuperate first. After a few years, I will send someone to bring you back." Concubine Yao said.

Guangning's face was almost twisted and ferocious, "You are just afraid that I will drag down the Second Emperor here, aren't you afraid that I will go to Huainan and kill people and burn things?"

"Why don't you just kill me and put an end to it all. I won't have to burden you any more."

Concubine Yao stood up suddenly, grabbed Guangning's hand, and walked out with big strides.

"Mother, where are you taking me?" Guangning asked.

Concubine Yao said nothing, but took her to the most remote place.

Until she came to a place Guangning had never been to. She had lived in the palace for so many years and had no idea there was such a place.

"Open your eyes and see clearly. Song Xiuzhi has hurt you. Now she repeats everything you have experienced day and night. Even so, she is unwilling to die and is still living."

Guangning's face froze.

She heard the obscene noises inside and her face turned pale instantly.

"No..." Guangning took a few steps back, fear appearing on his face.

Imperial Concubine Yao stared at her sternly, "I feel the most pain for what you've gone through than anyone else, but Guangning, you still have a long life ahead of you. You have to get out of this and don't get trapped in pain."

"I know that no one can share your misery, but when you are not doing well, do you know who is happier?"

"Guangning, your mother has avenged those who have hurt you." Concubine Yao reached out to hug her shoulders.

"No, I have to avenge myself." Guangning avoided Concubine Yao's hand.

"I will listen to my mother and go to Huainan."

Concubine Yao frowned and looked at her daughter's back as she turned and left, feeling a little uneasy.

I always feel that Guangning will do something else.

"Find a few more people to stay with the princess and don't let her do stupid things again." Concubine Yao instructed Chu Zhi tiredly.

……

……

The next time Shen Sui'an heard news about Guangning, she had left Shangjing City and went to Huainan.

"County Lady, this is an opportunity." Ningshuang whispered.

"Yes, Guangning must meet the person. As long as Guangning meets the person, he will definitely take him with him." Shen Suian said.

Ning Shuang: "The princess tortured his brother to death and threw him in a mass grave. He will have this brother who depends on him from childhood to adulthood."

"As soon as I sent his brother back, he wanted to take up his knife and seek revenge."

"These days I specially asked him to go to the Qingguan Hall to learn. He is smart and you can no longer tell that he used to be a butcher."

Shen Sui'an curled his lips, "My brother, whom I raised with great care, finally passed the imperial examination and was able to stand out in the world, but he was spotted by Guangning and coerced and bribed into becoming her lover. How could I not hate him?"

It took her a lot of effort to find such a person.

"I have seen him. He looks more like Lu Heng than his brother." Ningshuang said.

"Very good." Shen Sui'an smiled, very satisfied.

"County Lady, Shi Qing came back to report that the people you asked him to bring have arrived in Shangjing City, and that they have been placed in a separate courtyard outside the city." Ban Jian came in and whispered.

Shen Sui'an nodded and said, "Let's go and meet him first."

She asked Shi Qing to send someone to bring back the Lu Rong sisters.

Old Madam Lu despised the waste of money and sold her two illegitimate granddaughters to an old lecher as concubines.

Shen Sui'an had long guessed that they would definitely not treat these two girls well.

She never expected that Madam Lu would always do things that would shock her even more. No matter how poor she was, Lu Rong and Lu Yin were still her granddaughters.

As soon as Lu Rong and Lu Yin saw Shen Sui'an, they knelt in front of her, tears streaming down their faces.

"Sister-in-law, you are our savior. We will work like slaves to repay you in this life." Lu Rong cried.

"Why do I want you to work like slaves? Get up quickly." Shen Sui'an helped them up.

Lu Rong and Lu Yin cried as they talked about their experiences along the way.

"At first, the old lady still needed servants to serve her, but later on, as money became less and less, she drove the two maids away, and Sister Yin and I did the work of maids."

"Later, Aunt Cheng took away the silver from my father and ran away. The old lady became even more angry and thought that we would also steal silver."

"When we passed through Yangzhou, the old lady sold us out."

If Shen Sui'an's men had not arrived in time, they would have been destroyed.

Shen Sui'an said, "It's okay. You can stay here first. When the emperor forgets about the Lu family, you can go to the court and change your status to that of a pariah. It would be fine if you could just become a commoner."

When Lu Rong and the others heard this, they were so moved that they wanted to kneel down again.

"Sister-in-law, we will be your maids." Lu Yin said.

Shen Sui'an smiled and said, "You don't need to be maids. You can go to Huarong Pavilion or a silk shop to learn a skill. Then you can support yourself without relying on anyone."

"Sister-in-law, I...I am still good at needlework." Lu Yin said quickly.

"Okay." Shen Sui'an nodded.

If she had known that Lu Heng would be so desperate to assassinate Guangning, she should have arranged marriages for the two girls earlier.

Who would have thought that just after looking at a few and before choosing the right one, something bad would happen to the Bai family.

She settled Lu Rong and Lu Yin in the backyard of her clothing store. Fortunately, because of their illegitimate status, the old lady rarely took them to social events.

Not many people in the capital would recognize them.

"My aunt's surname is Xu, so from now on I will be called Xu Rong." Lu Rong said in a low voice.

"Then...then I will also take my aunt's last name. Anyway, the Lu family has abandoned us, and we will no longer be members of the Lu family."

"Yes, from now on you just need to live your life well."

There will be no more Lu Rong and Lu Yin from now on, as they died on the day they were sold by their grandmother.
