Quickly wear salted fish, she won by lying down

Under normal circumstances, how could Third Master Jiang possibly listen to Third Madam Jiang's control? After all, before marriage, she could spend money however she wanted, but after marriage, she couldn't spend it anymore. How could Third Master Jiang possibly agree to that?

Grandma Jiang had a clever method—she knew that Master Jiang liked women, so she had the maids who were willing to accompany him, and then let them fawn over him to get some money. She said that as long as they got a certain amount of money, she would return their indentures and make sure Master Jiang gave them a child.

The reason she had her maid do it instead of doing it herself was naturally because she couldn't let go of that pride.

With these guarantees, the maids naturally did their best and actually managed to squeeze some money back from Master Jiang for Granny Jiang.

Seeing that Third Grandma Jiang was able to get some money back from Third Master Jiang, the Dowager Princess Qinghe was particularly satisfied with Third Grandma Jiang—much more satisfied with her than with Linlang.

In her opinion, Linlang did nothing all day but sit in her room in a daze. Her husband was indifferent to her and didn't know how to please her. It was really unpleasant. If it weren't for her eldest son's special circumstances, she would never have married Li Linlang, a daughter-in-law who had been rejected by her fiancé, had no ability, and whose family was in dire straits.

This was the first time Linlang had heard Princess Qinghe complain about her. Although she knew that Princess Qinghe was not satisfied with her because she was usually cold to her, this was the first time she had heard her complain.

This was the first time I heard her mention that her eldest son had a special situation; she said it privately when she was complaining to the nanny beside her.

But Linlang looked left and right and still couldn't see anything special about Prince Qinghe. What was so special about him? She felt that Prince Qinghe was a pretty normal person—except that whoever married him would die.

Is it true that the Prince of Qinghe is a jinx to his wives, and that anyone who marries him will die?

If that's really the case, then why bother arranging a marriage for him? Is it just an experiment to see if that's true?
Could this really be the reason he married Li San Niang and the original owner of this body? It really seems like that, otherwise he wouldn't have arranged for the Prince of Qinghe to marry them no matter how bad their conditions were, because he was just using them as cannon fodder.

Does the Prince of Qinghe know about this?
It seems that the Prince of Qinghe was unaware of this. After all, if he knew that he was cursed to be unlucky in marriage, he probably wouldn't have wasted his time getting married, since there was no need for it.

So it wasn't because Prince Qinghe had a relationship with Consort Ding in the palace, and they were afraid that Prince Qinghe would keep thinking about Consort Ding and bring danger to the Qinghe Prince's mansion, so they quickly arranged a wife for him. Rather, was it because Prince Qinghe was a jinx to his wives?
It's definitely not true that the Prince of Qinghe is a jinx to his wives. Putting aside the fact that she doesn't believe in the existence of such a thing, the fact that Li San Niang died twice and the original owner of the body died once makes it seem more like someone was behind the scenes committing the crime, rather than the Prince of Qinghe being a jinx to his wives.

She had previously speculated that the person behind the murder might have fallen in love with the Prince of Qinghe, and then spread rumors that the Prince of Qinghe was a jinx to his wives, which would eventually lead to the death of several of his wives. He would then be too afraid to marry any other woman and would have no choice but to marry her, who had volunteered to marry him. This was a very possible explanation.

If that's really the case, then this person's background must be worlds apart from that of the Prince of Qinghe. If they were on the same level, or even slightly below, they could have married the Prince of Qinghe through normal channels. Only if her status and position made it impossible for her to marry the Prince of Qinghe under normal circumstances, and she also had superpowers, would she have gone to such lengths to harm the Prince of Qinghe, making him so unmarriageable that no one dared to marry him. Only then could she step forward and marry him, thus succeeding.

Following this line of thought, Linlang felt that the standards for investigating families who had dealt with the Qinghe Prince's Mansion should be lowered even further. Even the maids in the mansion should be investigated. After all, if any of these maids had the superpower to repeatedly kill the Qinghe Prince's wives, then when no one dared to marry the Qinghe Prince, they could all marry him. Because at that point, the Qinghe Dowager Consort, wanting her son to have a wife and children, might be willing to accept any kind of girl.

The reason for suspecting the maids in the mansion was that it would be easier for them to carry out the rumor that Prince Qinghe was a jinx to his wives, since they were the ones who worked and lived in the mansion and it would be too easy for them to do so.

The previous question about why the other party didn't spread rumors about Prince Qinghe and Consort Ding during his engagement to scare away potential suitors and allow her to marry into the family now has an explanation. Because the other party's status was too low, they wanted the woman to marry into Prince Qinghe's household and then die, thus confirming the rumors of him being a jinx to his wives, making it easier for her to marry. And if the other party had the ability to remotely brainwash others into spreading such rumors about Prince Qinghe and Consort Ding, they would naturally also have the ability to spread the rumor of Prince Qinghe being a jinx to the Dowager Princess Qinghe.

Linlang felt that this deduction was completely logically complete. Of course, these were all her deductions. Whether they were true or not, she still needed to keep an eye on the Qinghe Dowager and see what was special about the Qinghe Prince she mentioned, whether he was a jinx to his wives.

If that's really the case, then we'll have to add another culprit to the list of those who killed the original owner of this body: Consort Qinghe.

Knowing that his son was destined to bring misfortune to his wife, he still arranged a marriage for him. This is tantamount to intentional homicide, and he is naturally one of the murderers.

Linlang hadn't yet made any progress in finding out who killed the original owner of the body, but the person who spread the rumors about Prince Qinghe and Consort Ding appeared and started gossiping about it to her.

Linlang already knew who was spreading rumors in the mansion, so she kept an eye on them. As expected, she didn't see Linlang contacting anyone, but rather seeing the person spreading these rumors to her on their own initiative.

This made Linlang realize even more that the mastermind behind the scenes might actually have the ability to brainwash others, just like a certain woman in a previous world.

If someone truly possesses this ability, it would be incredibly difficult to find the murderer. After all, the last time they were found, it was because the person gave themselves away by talking to themselves in private. What if this person is very cautious this time, and doesn't talk to themselves, but only thinks about it in their mind? Then it would be impossible to find a single clue.

The person who spread the gossip was the wet nurse who served Prince Qinghe.

That's true; it's only when someone provides close care and attention that their words carry weight.

Prince Qinghe had four wet nurses in total, and this Liu was one of them.

Linlang is a bit strange. Why did the mastermind have Liu Mama spread rumors that Prince Qinghe and Consort Ding had a past relationship? What was the purpose of this?

Whether it was Li San Niang's world, the original owner's world, or Lin Lang's world, the rumors always happened on time.

This kind of thing happens in several worlds. What is the significance of this for the mastermind behind it?

If this rumor is false, isn't the mastermind afraid that Linlang will expose the lie once she inquires? Is it even necessary to say anything? (End of Chapter)
