Chapter 1 House Confiscation
"Sister, we should quickly grab some valuables and run for our lives. I heard that the Third Prince has reported the Duke, and the officials will be here to confiscate our property soon!"
"But the young lady hasn't woken up yet."
"Do you want to die? You're in such a critical situation, and you still care about this ugly woman? The Duke was defeated at the border, and 100,000 soldiers were wiped out. The Emperor was furious and summoned the Crown Prince to the palace to reprimand him..."
It hurts, it really hurts!
The sky in June is gloomy and the sultry air makes people inexplicably depressed and irritable.
Chen Wan, dressed in her wedding gown, lay on the bright red wedding bed, feeling a splitting headache and a noisy sound in her ears.
When I suddenly opened my eyes, I saw two girls in pink silk jackets rummaging through boxes and drawers, stuffing jewelries into their arms.
"Who are you?" Shen Wan was confused.
The two girls turned around suddenly.
In the dim light, a pair of confused eyes flashed strangely in the darkness.
"Don't hit us!"
They screamed in fear and rushed to the door howling like ghosts and wolves.
Shen Wan looked confused.
As a military doctor, she was clearly bandaging the wounds of wounded soldiers on the battlefield. How could she suddenly come here?
Suddenly, I felt a sharp pain in my head, and a strange memory flooded into my mind...
She, traveled through the book!
There is a vicious and ugly woman in the book named Chen Wan, who is the concubine daughter of Xiangyang Marquis’s family, a family of military generals. She used despicable means to replace her elder sister and married the big villain in the book - Xie Mubai, the son of the Duke of Zhenguo.
On the day of the wedding, Yumen Pass was lost, and the Duke of Zhenguo and 100,000 soldiers died for their country.
The male protagonist, the third prince, took the opportunity to impeach the emperor. The emperor was furious and confiscated the Duke's mansion on the charge of treason. The slaves were sold and the entire family was exiled to the wild northwest.
Hearing the wind, the original owner threw off her red veil and wanted to run to her parents' home, but she slipped and fell to the ground, hitting her head directly on a stone.
Not long after arriving in the northwest, the original owner eloped with someone.
Unexpectedly, the man turned out to be a human trafficker. He gave her the power-dissolving powder and then sold her.
The buyer was not a good person either. He beat and scolded her.
In just a few years, the original owner fell ill.
Seeing that she was dying, the buyer wrapped her in a straw mat and threw her on the roadside.
As she lay dying, she saw Xie Mubai, dressed in gorgeous attire, riding a tall horse to ask for the hand of Bai Yueguang, and she vaguely heard someone calling him "Prime Minister"...
Shen Wan wanted to cry.
It would be fine if she just crossed into the book without knowing why, but why did she have to become that extremely stupid and ugly woman? Why was she exiled as soon as she arrived?
Suddenly, a white light flashed across the wrist.
Shen Wan was overjoyed.
It seems that her luck is not too bad, at least she brought this portable space with her.
She is a military doctor, so the space is naturally equipped with a large number of medicines and medical equipment, and even a bay of spiritual spring water that can regulate the body. The only drawback is that there are too few daily necessities.
Since she had to go into exile, she had to stock up on supplies as soon as possible.
So, Shen Wan struggled to get up from the bed and put away all the dowry stored in the wing room.
I have to say, the Marquis of Xiangyang is really stingy.
There was such a large dowry, but there was not a single valuable item in it. Most of it was made up of cheap items such as quilts and coarse cloth.
But now that things have come to this, she has nothing to complain about.
After collecting her things, Shen Wan hurried out.
At this time, the Duke Zhenguo's Mansion was already in chaos, and no one paid any attention to her, the young lady who had just entered.
Just as he was about to go to the storeroom, he saw a young widow running out in a panic carrying a jade-colored bundle.
Shen Wan remembered this woman.
The Duke of Zhenguo has five sons, and the crown prince Xie Mubai is the youngest.
His four half-brothers died for their country several years ago, leaving behind four widowed sisters-in-law.
The person in front of him was Sun from the third house, the original owner's mortal enemy since childhood.
Seeing Shen Wan coming towards her, a look of panic flashed across Sun's eyes.
However, she quickly recovered as before and sneered sarcastically, "Oh, I didn't expect that an ugly person like you could be so lucky. I thought you were dead after falling down."
Shen Wan didn't want to cause trouble, but since this woman took the initiative to come to her door to cause trouble, she couldn't tolerate it.
"You're not dead yet, how could I bear to die first?" She stared at the heavy bag with ill intentions and said with a forced smile, "But your bag looks quite heavy. How about I carry it for you?"
Before she finished speaking, her hand reached out for the bundle.
Sun's expression suddenly changed.
She quickly hid the bag behind her and cursed viciously, "Don't even think about touching my things, you ugly bastard!"
"If you have time to waste on this nonsense, you might as well prepare a coffin to collect the body of your sickly prince."
Before she finished her words, Sun took two steps at a time and hurried out.
Shen Wan was very sure that this woman did not escape from the Duke's Mansion before the house was confiscated, but was exiled to the northwest with the original owner.
She calmly stretched out her foot and threw Sun to the ground.
The beautiful jade-colored bundle fell from her hand, and the gold, silver and jewelry sparkling with dazzling light scattered all over the ground.
“Chen Wan, you’re looking for death!”
Sun was anxious and angry.
Just as he looked up and was about to curse, he saw that the ugly woman had disappeared.
How could Shen Wan have the time? She had to prepare more things before the officials arrived.
Fearing that she didn't have enough time, she used instant displacement and arrived at the warehouse in the blink of an eye.
The Duke's Mansion is really poor. Apart from bulky items such as food and tables and chairs, there is not much gold and silver.
Shen Wan took a look and just put the new rice and some silver into the space.
If there was nothing in the storehouse during the house search, it would be strange if the emperor didn't get suspicious.
If he changes exile to immediate execution in anger, it would be a loss.
After leaving the warehouse, Shen Wan took all the edible things from the kitchen and even stuffed a large iron pot in it.
Their house is going to be raided anyway, and if she doesn't take these things, they will benefit others.
Suddenly remembering that the original owner's biological mother was killed by the wife of the Marquis of Xiangyang, Shen Wan went to the Marquis of Xiangyang's mansion again and took away all the gold and silver jewelry.
Of course, there is also the dog emperor and the third prince who framed loyal officials. She will not let any of them go.
What she never expected was that the Third Prince, who was known for his integrity and frugality, had a mountain of food and money in his secret room, which was simply a branch of the dog emperor's treasury!
Haha, now they’ve made a fortune. Those bastard father and son can just wait and cry their hearts out!
Shen Wan was not polite, so Xiao Hei waved his claws.
Take away what can be taken away, and burn what cannot be taken away. In any case, not a single grain of rice will be left for him!
In an instant, smoke billowed from the Third Prince's residence and flames shot up into the sky.
Shen Wan disappeared and returned to the backyard of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion.
Seeing that it was still early, she lay on the rattan chair in the yard, contentedly drinking iced sour plum soup, waiting for the officials to come.
Suddenly, there was a loud cry in the front yard.
Shen Wan knew clearly that the house search had begun!
She threw the bowl into the space and then walked towards the front yard.
The front yard was already a mess at this time, with clothes, cloth and other things thrown all over the floor, and the family members were crying their hearts out.
Shen Wan looked around.
Sure enough, Sun was not able to escape, and even the two little girls who stole jewelry in the house were not spared.
The Duke's wife died early, and the concubine, Aunt Zhou, was not a person with her own ideas.
Seeing the officers coming to her house with shining swords in hand to search and confiscate her house, she was so scared that she collapsed to the ground, and didn't even look at her two grandsons who were crying until their voices were hoarse.
On a stretcher in the middle of the yard, a man covered in blood was lying.
Shen Wan thought, that must be her cheap husband.
She walked forward curiously and was stunned at the first glance.
The man's face was sickly pale, with two sword-like eyebrows slanting into his temples, and his beautiful phoenix eyes slightly upturned at the corners, adding a bit of inexplicable elegance to him.
Even a blood-stained dress could not conceal the noble elegance that emanated from her.
It turns out that the villain in the book is so handsome!
Out of her instinct as a military doctor, Shen Wan subconsciously bent down to check him.
As soon as the warm fingertips touched the bloody leg, Xie Mubai trembled with pain, and his smooth forehead was covered with dense beads of sweat.
I have to say, the emperor was very ruthless and actually broke his leg bones!
"Get out of here!" Xie Mubai pushed her black claws away, his weak voice trembling violently with extreme anger.
It doesn't seem like the right time to treat the injury now.
Shen Wan shrugged and stopped talking.
Xie Mubai was in no mood to say anything else and just stared at her with disgust.
His gaze was too sinister, and just one glance made Shen Wan feel uneasy.
"Have you finished counting all the stolen goods?"
At this moment, a sharp and thin voice came from not far away.
