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

"Second Miss, Madam sent this old servant to ask you, has the reward you requested on behalf of the Eldest Miss been granted?"

After Song Qingning came out of the palace after meeting the emperor, she was greeted by Liu Mama, just like in her previous life.

The lady she mentioned was Song Qingning's mother, the second wife of the Yongning Marquis's family.

The young lady she was referring to was her cousin, the eldest daughter of the main branch of the Yongning Marquis's mansion.

From a young age, her mother taught her that the second wife should regard the first wife as their master, and that her cousins ​​were the legitimate children of the first wife and had noble status, so she and her brother should serve them wholeheartedly.

She joined the army at the age of fourteen in place of her cousin and earned military merit with her blood.

The first time, her mother ordered her to use her military merits to persuade the emperor to make an exception and appoint her cousin as the heir of a marquis's mansion before he came of age.

The second time, she earned her mother the title of "First-Rank Imperial Lady".

This is the third time.

Ten days ago, her mother's letter was delivered to her.

The letter ordered her to use her military merits to petition for her cousin to be granted the title of county princess.

My mother said that my cousin had reached marriageable age and had the title of county princess, so she could marry into an even more prestigious and powerful family.

In her previous life, she obeyed her mother and petitioned for her cousin to be granted the title of county princess.

My cousin, with her title of county princess, managed to get rid of her fiancé, who came from a poor family, and marry into the Shen family.

However, as "compensation," he gave her to his cousin's fiancé.

She suffered greatly at the hands of her in-laws, but she overheard that her cousins ​​were her mother's biological children.

The second wife twice plotted to switch children with the first wife, allowing her children to enjoy honor by stepping on her and her brother's blood and flesh.

Knowing the truth, she tried her best to set things right.

To keep this secret, the second wife tried to stop her, and her cousin threatened her.

Without hesitation, her cousin cut off her hands and feet, turned her into a human pig, locked her in a nunnery, and left her to fend for herself.

On their deathbed, they told her:

Her biological father, the Marquis of Yongning, died in battle.

Her biological mother, Lady Yongning, committed suicide to follow her husband in death.

The elder brother was beaten to death in a brothel while vying for a night with the most beautiful courtesan.

Of the four family members, none survived.

She died with her eyes wide open in disbelief.

When she opened her eyes again, she was back on the army's triumphant return to the capital, when her "mother" sent her a letter.

She is reborn!

"Second Miss, I'm asking you a question. Have you obtained the imperial decree to grant the eldest young lady the title of County Princess?" Madam Liu urged impatiently.

The second daughter has repeatedly distinguished herself in the military, but in the Marquis's mansion, she is someone who can be trampled on by anyone and is very easy to bully.

Song Qingning's sharp eyes swept over her.

This was the first time Liu's mother had sensed a murderous aura emanating from her.

The murderous aura vanished in an instant.

Song Qingning said, "The imperial edict will arrive at the Yongning Marquis's residence shortly."

The imperial edict will reach the Marquis's residence, but it is not an edict bestowing the title of County Princess upon my cousin!

"Great, that's wonderful!"

"I will hurry back to the Marquis's residence to tell the Madam the good news and let the eldest daughter prepare to receive the imperial decree and be conferred her title."

Mrs. Liu looked excited.

Before getting into the carriage, she tossed a bundle containing women's clothes to Song Qingning, saying with disdain, "Second Miss, please change your clothes before returning to the manor. As a woman, wearing such a heavy suit of iron makes you look like a man, which is really unbecoming of a woman."

His battle robes inspired awe.

Liu's mother thought back to the murderous intent she had felt just moments before.

No wonder the lady never allowed the second young lady to wear her battle robes into the Marquis's mansion; who knows how much blood of the dead is stained on those clothes.

unlucky!

The carriage drove out of Song Qingning's sight.

Every time she returned to the mansion, the second madam would prepare women's clothing for her, all of which were old clothes that her cousin had discarded.

The old clothes didn't fit properly, and they looked out of place on my body.

Today, the second wife specially invited the clan elders to include her cousin's honor of being named a county princess in the family genealogy.

In her past life, she returned to the mansion wearing this old dress, and looked incredibly foolish in comparison to her cousin's elegant attire.

Everyone praised my cousin for her dignified demeanor, saying she was an honor to the entire Song family.

They completely forgot who received that glory.

Song Qingning nimbly mounted her horse, drew her soft sword from her waist, and cleaved open the bundle.

Clothes were torn to shreds and scattered on the ground.

In this life, the military merits she earned with her life would not bring her cousin the title of county princess.

not only that.

The cousin's "heir apparent" and the mother's "first-rank imperial consort".

She will take back all the glory she earned for them through her military achievements, and everything that belongs to the eldest son's family!

The Yongning Marquis's Residence.

Madam Liu brought back the news first: "Madam, the imperial decree bestowing the title of County Princess upon the eldest daughter will arrive shortly."

In the hall, everyone was present except for the Marquis of Yongning, who had left the capital, and the Second and Third Masters.

The old Marquis sat in the main seat, and the clan elders looked delighted.

Second Madam Liu stood up excitedly, "Really? Good, that's great! I knew there wouldn't be any mistakes. Quickly go and send a message to the eldest young lady, so she can prepare to receive the imperial decree with peace of mind."

"Yes, madam."

Lady Liu had been in charge of the household affairs of the Marquis of Yongning for many years, and the servants called her "Madam," which made the real mistress of the Marquis's mansion, Lady Lu, seem like a transparent person.

One of the clan elders said:

"This is truly a great joy. First, the eldest young master was made a prince before he even reached adulthood, then Lady Liu was granted the title of 'First-Rank Imperial Lady,' and now the eldest young lady has been granted the title of county princess. The Marquis's mansion has produced a Song Qingning; they have truly struck gold."

Prince Song Mingtang's face darkened: "I was made prince before I even reached adulthood because of my renowned scholarship throughout the capital. What does this have to do with Song Qingning!"

He hated it most when people said that Song Qingning had earned the position of heir apparent through military merit.

"Yes, the young master's talent is unparalleled in the capital. Everything is due to his own efforts, and has nothing to do with Song Qingning," Liu Shi echoed with a smile.

Upon entering the room and hearing these two sentences, Song Qingning felt a mixture of hatred and sarcasm.

Not to mention the position of heir apparent that he earned through military merit.

The poetic talent that made him famous throughout the capital was also obtained through her cheating on his behalf.

In the eyes of this mother and son, it was truly something they had earned themselves.

So shameless!

"Mother!"

Song Qingning looked past Liu Shi and called to Lady Lu, the Lady of the Marquis, who was sitting behind Liu Shi.

When Liu looked up, she saw Song Qingning dressed in battle robes and felt her breath catch in her throat from the pressure emanating from her.

"Why did you come back dressed like that? Didn't I bring you some clothes? What kind of behavior is this!" Madam Liu scolded unhappily.

Song Qingning, dressed in battle armor, made her feel out of control.

Every time Song Qingning came back, she would make her wear Yan'er's old clothes when she came in.

Song Qingning is of lowly birth, only fit to wear Yan'er's old clothes and serve as a source of sludge for Ziyangtang'er and Yan'er.

Ignoring Liu's rebuke, Song Qingning walked straight to Lu.

Mrs. Lu was frail and sickly for many years, as childbirth had depleted her health.

She had three children.

The first pregnancy ended in miscarriage at five months; it was a fully formed male fetus.

When she was seven months pregnant with her second child, she went to a temple to offer incense and was trapped in the temple by a heavy rain along with Liu, who was also pregnant.

That night, both of them gave birth at the same time.

The child born prematurely to the Lu family was healthy and strong; the child born at full term to the Liu family was weak and sickly.

Everyone said it was because the eldest son of the main branch was noble and blessed by the ancestors, and no one suspected that someone had maliciously switched the children.

The third one was her... she was also replaced.

The Lady Lu in front of her was her mother!

"Auntie," Song Qingning greeted her.

"Good, good, it's good that you're back safe and sound." Madam Lu's eyes were full of loving kindness.

She had always liked Song Qingning, and the girl in front of her always made her feel sorry for her.

Thinking of how she used her military merits to petition for Yan'er to be granted the title of county princess.

Madam Lu couldn't help but say, "Qingning, the battlefield is dangerous, and it is difficult for women in the army. It is even more difficult to gain military merit. You should use it on yourself, not on seeking honors for others."

Upon hearing this, Madam Liu's expression changed drastically, and she retorted loudly, "What are you saying, Sister Lu?"

"Yan'er is the legitimate daughter of the eldest branch of the family. The eldest branch is the pillar of the Marquis's mansion, and the entire mansion should prioritize the eldest branch. Only with the glory of the eldest branch can the glory of the rest of the mansion be achieved."

Lu Jingshu is the daughter of Grand Tutor Lu.

Liu lost both her parents at a young age and lived with the Lu family, where she was known as one of the Lu sisters.

Afterwards, the two married into the Yongning Marquis's household at the same time, and did not change the way they were addressed before marriage.

Liu never called Lu "elder sister-in-law".

At this time, Liu's wholehearted dedication to the Marquis's mansion and her willingness to sacrifice the interests of the second branch of the family gave everyone a false impression.

It was as if Lady Liu was the true mistress of the Marquis's mansion.

"Song Qingning, I have taught you since you were a child that the prosperity of the Marquis's mansion is the prosperity of all, and the loss of one is the loss of all. I believe you will not forget that."

Looking at Song Qingning, Madam Liu pressed her for an answer, "You're doing this willingly, right? You're petitioning for the eldest daughter to be granted the title of County Princess, aren't you?"

Everyone looked at Song Qingning.

We all prosper together, and we all suffer together?!

In his previous life, however, he was honored by Liu's two children.

She and her brother were brutally murdered and their marrow was drained from their bones; none of the four family members survived.

In this life, everything should return to normal!

Song Qingning looked at Liu Shi.

Is she really that confident that she won't go against her wishes?

Song Qingning sneered inwardly, then slowly spoke, "Mother originally wanted me to use my military merits to petition for my cousin to be granted the title of County Princess. Why didn't she tell me this sooner?"
