A wicked mother swaps her son and sucks his blood? The true legitimate daughter is reborn and goes o

What did she say?

It was just an excuse to lure Song Qingning closer to her, making it easier for her to take action.

But then she regretted it.

She underestimated Song Qingning's intelligence and skills.

"Speak!" Song Qingning urged.

As she spoke, she walked step by step closer to Song Qingyan.

At this moment, Song Qingyan was filled with fear.

Seeing the hairpin in Song Qingning's hand, she was certain that Song Qingning had come to take revenge on her!

Is she going to ruin her face?

As this thought crossed her mind, Song Qingyan's legs went weak, and she knelt on the ground.

"I'm sorry, Qingning, I was wrong," Song Qingyan pleaded instinctively.

"Wrong? You just had something to say to me, where did you go wrong?" Song Qingning frowned and stood in front of Song Qingyan.

Standing high above, exuding an imposing aura.

Song Qingyan's eyes flickered, her heart in turmoil, unsure of how to explain the hairpin.

In her haste, she forced an awkward smile. "Qingning, I originally intended to give you that hairpin."

"Although I was unaware of the Liu family's child swap, I've benefited greatly over the years by using your identity. I want to make it up to you..."

"Compensate me?" Song Qingning brandished the bloodstained hairpin in her hand. "Use this hairpin to compensate me?"

Song Qingyan felt guilty. Both she and Song Qingning knew what she intended to do with the hairpin.

But at this moment, she could only try her best to excuse herself, "Yes, Qingning, what else do you want? I'll make it up to you."

As soon as the words left her mouth, Song Qingyan realized what she had left.

The one who has everything has become Song Qingning!

She is the legitimate daughter of the Marquis of Yongning, Mingyue Xian, a female general of the Great Jing Dynasty, and soon to become the Princess Consort of Huai.

Everything she wanted, Song Qingning got it so easily!

Looking back at myself.

Lose everything, have nothing left.

Song Qingyan thought Song Qingning would mock her harshly, but instead she heard Song Qingning say, "Is that really true?"

Song Qingning seemed very interested in the "compensation" she mentioned.

Song Qingyan was stunned for a moment, "Really!"

"Okay, then it's settled. Whatever I want, you'll compensate me." Song Qingning's face was beaming with a bright smile, and there was even a hint of playfulness in her eyes.

But when Song Qingyan heard these words, a chill ran down her spine.

She asked instinctively, "What do you want?"

What does she want?

What she wants, of course, is her life!

It's not just about taking her life.

In his past life, she cut off his hands and feet and turned him into a human pig. Even after a lifetime, the pain and hatred have not subsided.

Song Qingyan should also experience and suffer the same things she went through.

"You'll find out when the time comes." Song Qingning's smile was meaningful.

"At that time?"

Song Qingyan's unease grew stronger; her intuition told her that she couldn't give Song Qingning what she wanted.

What does she want?

Before Song Qingyan could even think, the hairpin in Song Qingning's hand slashed towards her cheek.

"Ah..." Song Qingyan screamed instinctively, filled with fear.

She thought Song Qingning was going to ruin her face, but when she came to her senses, she didn't feel any pain on her face, but she heard Song Qingning's low laughter above her head.

She looked up and met Song Qingning's mischievous eyes.

"What are you afraid of? Afraid I'll slash your face? You're overthinking it, there are so many people watching!"

She blinded Liu's eyes as revenge, but to outsiders it seemed that Liu had attacked Lu first, and that she was only reaping what she sowed.

But to others, scratching Song Qingyan's face at this moment would seem different.

She wasn't afraid of being called "cruel," but the reputation of "Princess Consort of Huai" had to be clean.

Besides, just scratching her face is too easy for Song Qingyan!

Despite her words, Song Qingyan remained tense.

It was only because the hairpin in Song Qingning's hand moved across her face, from her chin to her nose, then to her cheeks, and slowly to her eyes.

Everywhere she went, she felt that Song Qingning would use her strength to stab her face to pieces at any moment.

Finally, Song Qingning removed the hairpin.

Just as Song Qingyan was about to breathe a sigh of relief, she saw Song Qingning's hairpin stabbing towards her head.

"Ah..." Song Qingyan instinctively dodged.

But her wrist was grabbed, and she trembled all over. She felt something flowing out, and it smelled pungent.

The hairpin in Song Qingning's hand was simply inserted into Song Qingyan's hair.

"I don't like this hairpin, so I'll return it to you." Song Qingning turned around nonchalantly.

A pungent odor permeated the air.

Everyone frowned in disgust when they saw the water stains spreading under Song Qingyan's skirt.

"She has been under the first wife's name for many years, yet she has none of the first wife's charm."

"Qingning merely put a hairpin in her hair, and she... tsk tsk tsk..."

One after another, sounds of disgust and contempt filled the air.

Song Qingyan blushed deeply with embarrassment.

On this day, after the sacrificial ceremony ended, none of the people returned to the village to stay overnight.

Lord Song suffered several fractures from his fall and needs a doctor. Lady Liu was blinded in one eye and also needs a doctor.

The group rushed back to the capital overnight.

Upon reaching the outside of the city, the city gates were already closed.

The procession had just stopped when Wan Zi arrived with the Prince of Huai's token. Her arrival was too timely, as if she knew that the Marquis of Yongning's residence would enter the city at this moment.

Horse-drawn carriages entered the city.

As they passed Cangling Pavilion, Song Qingning lifted the curtain.

The shops in the city were already under curfew. Song Qingning looked up and saw a man standing by the window on the second floor of a teahouse, half-open.

It was Xie Xuanjin.

It was as if he was deliberately waiting for her to pass by.

Song Qingning did not get off the carriage, but simply nodded to him.

Then, under Xie Xuanjin's watchful eye, they passed by Cangling Pavilion.

Inside Cangling Pavilion.

Wan Zi went to report back.

Xie Xuanjin suddenly spoke up, "Does the Princess wear that jade pendant?"

Wan Zi was slightly taken aback.

Not long ago, the prince had Uncle Tan deliver a jade pendant to the Yongning Marquis's residence, but "I haven't seen the princess wearing it."

Seeing the prince frown, she added, "Perhaps she wears it under her clothes, close to her body. After all, it was a gift from the prince, so the princess must cherish it very much."

value?

Xie Xuanjin made a self-deprecating remark.

That's not necessarily true.

He had heard that his mother had sent him a dagger, which she carried with her at all times.

She prefers to follow things rather than people.

She loved calligraphy and swords, but didn't care much for jewelry or jade pendants.

But that jade pendant was different!

Xie Xuanjin recalled Master Lingguang's words, a strange light flashing in his deep eyes.

The Yongning Marquis's Residence.

Before dawn, the Yongning Marquis's residence was already bustling with activity.

The servants were busy moving the belongings from the west courtyard of the second house out.

Everything from Jinxiu Pavilion and Zhucui Courtyard was moved to the East Courtyard, while Song Changsheng and Liu's belongings were moved to the low courtyard next to the Marquis's Mansion.

Although separated by only a wall, they are worlds apart.

Madam Lu did not rest; she personally oversaw the arrangement of the new courtyard.

He deliberately arranged for his children to live on the left and right sides of the main courtyard, so that if he called out from under the courtyard wall, the other party could hear him.

Madam Chen couldn't help but laugh at her, "Madam wishes our young master and young lady could be by her side all the time."

A hint of sadness crossed Madam Lu's eyes. "It's a pity Ning'er is about to get married."

As soon as Song Qingning entered the room, she noticed the desolation of the Lu family.

"Mother, the Marquis's mansion and the Prince's mansion are not far apart. When you miss me, I will come back immediately. You will see me within the time it takes for an incense stick to burn." Song Qingning threw herself into Madam Lu's arms and acted coquettishly.

"Alright, alright, I'm afraid the young master won't let her go then," Madam Lu said mischievously.

Then something else came to mind.

Lu handed the brocade box she had found while tidying the room to Song Qingning.

"Why didn't you wear the jade pendant that Prince Huai sent you the other day? Did you not like it?"
