Chapter 733 Not Dead
With limited time, Lin Yuesha waited for the right opportunity to act quickly. Cangzhou was the best location; if she waited to operate halfway through, the difficulty of concealing her actions would increase significantly.
"I considered informing Bai Youran, but the stakes are too high, and we can't afford to gamble."
Ultimately, Bai Youran is a member of the Bai family. She has many ways to avenge Li Ruoxue. Dealing with her brother and sister-in-law does not mean she is on the side of their mortal enemies. Besides, how much does Bai Youran know about the Wei family's ambitions?
If our side were to reveal our secrets and be betrayed by Bai Youran, it would not only increase the danger, but also make it much more difficult to find a replacement later.
"The Bai siblings, Bai Youran is cunning but easily fooled. In comparison, Bai Dingfeng's thoughts are unfathomable."
Since Bai Dingfeng was able to travel with Wei Lan, the intentions of both families were clear: to use Bai Dingfeng to restrain Wei Lan, and there were probably other arrangements as well.
Qingxing racked her brains but couldn't come up with a good solution.
"No, it doesn't need to be complicated."
Lin Yuesha opened the package, took out a small medicine bottle from a red pouch, and winked, "Qingxing, how could you forget? I have this too."
"This is... Seven-Day Intoxication?"
Qingxing blinked, took the medicine bottle, examined it carefully, and then confirmed.
"Exactly."
Seven-Day Intoxication is a potent drug. As its name suggests, it can cause a seven-day intoxication, making one obsessed with matters of the heart. However, those who are under the influence of this drug do not feel any discomfort; on the contrary, they feel quite comfortable.
If we're talking about side effects, after seven days, it's not just a matter of kidney deficiency.
What are you doing with this medicine bottle?
Qingxing was speechless. Before she knew it, her young lady had started doing something crooked.
She knew about Seven Days Intoxication, but had never seen it. It was said to be complicated to prepare, so it was rarely sold on the market.
"Of course I used it."
"Even crooked and unorthodox methods will prove useful sooner or later," Lin Yuesha said smugly. "Let's give this medicine to Bai Youran. What should she do, since she's so eager for revenge?"
They drugged Bai Dingfeng and Wei Lan, forcing them to continue their affair, thus freeing up their resources to replace the goods.
Lin Yuesha had no better options and had to resort to this last resort.
The maids looked at each other, and finally decided to follow their mistress's arrangements.
Lin Yuesha was just about to talk to Bai Youran when Bai Youran rushed over to her door.
"Sister Bai, I have..."
Lin Yuesha was delighted to see Bai Youran and was about to speak when Bai Youran raised her hand to stop her. Without beating around the bush, she said directly, "Sister Yuesha, I brought an acquaintance with me."
Meeting this person was purely coincidental, thanks to Bai Youran's extraordinary hearing.
"who?"
Lin Yuesha was puzzled. Bai Youran waved her hand, and a woman dressed in a dark dress entered the room. She wore a wide-brimmed hat and veil, which covered her face.
"Miss Lin, it's been a long time."
The newcomer sighed, her voice ethereal and otherworldly, and she sat down opposite her quite naturally.
The name sounded familiar, but Lin Yuesha couldn't remember who it was.
"It's me."
As she spoke, the newcomer lifted the veil from her hat, revealing a delicate and beautiful face.
"you……"
Lin Yuesha was stunned and speechless for a long time.
"Is it Li Ruoxue?"
Qingxing gasped. What was going on? Li Ruoxue wasn't dead? How could that be?
Although the Bai family kept the news of Li Ruoxue's death a closely guarded secret, they couldn't hide it from their own people. Qingxing was absolutely certain that Li Ruoxue was dead; otherwise, Bai Youran wouldn't have hated Bai Dingfeng and Wei Lan.
"It's not Li Ruoxue."
Once Lin Yuesha came to her senses, her first action was to grab the other person's arm and roll up their sleeve to take a look.
My arms are smooth and without a single scar.
The person who came was Li Ruoshuang, who had been "dead" for a long time.
“Li Ruoxue was bitten by a dog when she was in girls’ school, so she has a scar on her arm.”
The face is exactly the same, without a single flaw. It's not Li Ruoxue. The only person who looks so similar is Li Ruoxue's twin sister.
“Sister Yue Sha, you must be very surprised, but I’m even more surprised than you are.”
Bai Youran never expected to have the chance to meet Li Ruoshuang again in her lifetime. If she hadn't realized that the voice in her ear was too familiar, she would definitely have missed it.
The problem is, rumors say Li Ruoshuang died in place of her sister, so what's the deal with the person in front of us?
Before Bai Youran could ask any questions, she brought the person to Lin Yuesha, who was also full of questions.
"It seems the Li family concealed the news and found someone else to take the blame. I knew it! You and your sister-in-law are blood sisters, both are your flesh and blood, how could you..."
Since Zhao Fundie is already dead, why drag another one down with her? The Li family must have bribed the Zhao family beforehand; they were just putting on a show.
Bai Youran poured Li Ruoshuang a glass of water. Seeing her again filled her with emotion.
"Yes, we sisters are just putting on an act because our older sister accidentally killed Zhao Fendie, and we have to give an explanation to the Zhao family."
Li Ruoshuang took a sip of weak tea and said sadly, "I had planned to visit my sister in the capital, but I didn't expect that she had already passed away."
Li Ruoshuang sniffed, lowered her head sadly, but a smile curved her lips; she was lying.
When her collar was loosened, there was a purplish-blue ligature mark on her neck; she had almost been strangled to death by the nanny next to her mother.
After so much time, even with the best medicine, the marks have faded. But if she doesn't use powder to cover them up, they're still noticeable.
The Li family only needs one sweet-talking daughter; they don't need another. Li Ruoshuang knows all too well that she has always been superfluous since childhood.
Her mother always said that she should give way to her older sister. She gave up her clothes, jewelry, and private savings, even her final marriage, dowry, and even her life.
She remembered that day; the Li family thought she was dead, and she was placed in a coffin. Because she was an unmarried woman, and her death was considered dishonorable, the Li family didn't care and held a low-key funeral.
The middleman who was hired to handle the funeral was greedy for money. Seeing her magnificent coffin, he had a change of heart and threw her into a mass grave wrapped in a straw mat. She crawled out from among the dead.
Li Ruoshuang will never forget that day when a man stood in the distance, extending his hands to her.
Since she survived by sheer luck, she will surely seek revenge.
The blue-eyed man was the city lord of the barbarian city of Sishui. He trained her for a year and then sent her to the capital to seek revenge.
Unfortunately, Li Ruoshuang arrived a step too late.
Hehe, it's okay, Bai Dingfeng is still here, that vain and disgusting scum.
Li Ruoshuang traveled from the capital to Cangzhou by waterway, intending to travel with Bai Youran and others. However, before she could even show her face, Bai Youran recognized her by her voice.
The master's mission was for her to follow Lin Yuesha, that man of supreme status, who was to marry Lin Yuesha as the city lord's wife. In addition, he was also very interested in the military supplies of the Great Qi, and planned to take advantage of the situation when the two sides were fighting, and seize the military supplies.
