768 It’s useless to rely on anyone, you can only rely on yourself
There was no curfew in the great Zhou Dynasty, so the night was not that cold.
At the street corner, Lu Zheng ordered a bowl of noodles, while Gu Xin ordered two bowls of glutinous rice dumplings and a plate of dumplings.
Lu Zheng ate quickly and finished his bowl of noodles. He sat down and watched Gu Xin eat tangyuan spoonful by spoonful, then started gossiping with her little mouth.
The dumplings were almost cold. Lu Zheng took one and fed it to Gu Xin.
Gu Xin giggled and took a sip of the tangyuan. Just as she was about to speak, Lu Zheng fed her another one. Gu Xin obediently finished it and took another sip.
The stall owner thought they were siblings, so he wasn’t surprised by their actions.
The main thing was that Gu Xin wasn’t tall and was petite and cute. With her hair tied up in two buns, no one would think of anything else.
Under Lu Zheng’s feeding, Gu Xin’s eating speed finally increased because she had no chance to speak.
After she finished eating, Lu Zheng even used his finger to wipe the grain of fermented rice on the corner of her mouth.
This action was seen by Li Shan who was on the carriage.
Li Shan had gone to her eldest and third sister’s new house to bond and express that she didn’t know anything. It was her grandmother and grandma Xie who made the decision, and she was still in grief over her mother’s death.
Li can and Li can did not doubt him. Li Shan was only 11 years old this year. Putting themselves in their shoes, the two sisters felt that they were also as silly when they were 11 years old. Especially Li can. When their father died, she was also 11 years old.
Therefore, the two sisters were not angry with her and asked her to serve her grandmother well at home.
When she saw that her two older sisters were neither suspicious of her or ignoring her, she made an excuse that she had a headache and went home.
As a matter of fact, her wish had been fulfilled, and she was in a good mood. Just as she was enjoying the night breeze, she saw this disappointing scene.
She pinched the corner of her clothes.’Lu Zheng, you’re so lucky. I didn’t even make a move on you. Hmph, you adulterous couple, your good days are over.’
Li Shan didn’t know that the Lin family had already sent assassins once. She thought that the Lin family didn’t believe her, or that the Lin family’s people had not arrived yet.
Seeing the dimples at the corner of Gu Xin’s mouth when she laughed, Li Shan did not want to laugh and reveal the dimples on her face.
She thought of her mother, who also had dimples. Yesterday, she had poisoned her mother and tried to lure Duke Rong to the small Buddha Hall. Then, she had angered her mother and made her kill her. Duke Rong had always doted on his daughter and grandson, so he would definitely order someone to kill her. Whether she died or not, the poison she had used would kill her. After her death, it could only be seen that she was beaten to death, not poisoned to death. This plan of hers was the most perfect plan since her rebirth.
In the past, she wanted to borrow her mother’s hand, but later on, she realized that it was useless to rely on anyone. She could only rely on herself.
Wasn’t this matter verified just like that?
She had inadvertently revealed eldest Madam Li’s plan to Duke Rong and his wife, asking them to make preparations. Then, after eldest Madam li was locked up, they would go to the small temple to poison her.
This moldy poison had successfully killed li Muyan and Lady Li!
Her mother had died, and she had become Madam Li’s daughter, li Muyan’s cousin, and the young lady of Duke Rong’s mansion.
She would burn more joss paper for her mother to thank her in the future.
The next step would be to match li Muyan and Gu Nian together so that they would be inseparable. Then, she would break them up and destroy li Muyan. Then, her life would be stable. With the support of Duke Rong’s mansion and Empress Jiang, she would not have to worry about not being able to become the third Prince’s wife or Empress.
Li Shan looked at Lu Zheng and Gu Xin in disdain, as if she was looking at dead people.
