Chapter 647: The Sister Who Married in Place of Others
Therefore, Concubine Lan chose the Guo family because their ancestors were marquises who gained their title through war.
It was passed down through three generations until it came to Guo Yan. Her family was very wealthy and she was the only legitimate daughter, so her dowry would definitely not be small.
At this time, Luo Chen was taken home from the farm. She thought her father finally remembered her. After returning home happily, she found out that she was going to get married.
It was also said that he was the younger brother of the favorite concubine of the dynasty, Concubine Lan. Luo Chen had lived in a farm outside the city since he was a child and had no idea of Qian Fugui's reputation.
She thought her family valued her and was very happy. During her marriage preparation period, the family treated her very well, and Luo Chen was deeply moved.
On the wedding day, she got married happily. However, after her veil was removed, Qian Fugui looked at Luo Chen, who looked like a country girl, and immediately questioned her loudly.
The Guo family replied that Luo Chen was the legitimate daughter, that’s right, but she had always been away from home.
The Qian family knew that they had been cheated by the country and wanted to make a fuss immediately, but Li Rumei's brother was a general and suppressed the matter.
The Qian family could only hold their noses and suppress it.
Qian's mother immediately took all of Luo Chen's dowry into her hands, but found that it contained some worthless things.
All the wooden boxes he had made were sold for only five hundred taels of silver.
They still remember that when the princess of the Princess's Mansion got married, the dowry alone on display amounted to tens of thousands of taels of silver.
The Qian family was immediately dissatisfied, and after Concubine Lan gave birth to the eighth prince, they began to target Luo Chen.
Only then did Luo Chen realize that his parents called him back so that he could marry such a man instead of his elder sister.
After being tortured, she returned to the Bo's Mansion for help, but Li Rumei told Luo Chen to just bear it, as a daughter who is married off is like spilled water.
Whether her life is good or not depends on herself. The Guo family can't help her and asked her to come back less often in the future.
Seeing that Luo Chen couldn't even rely on his natal family, the Qian family and his mother began to torture Luo Chen more and more severely to vent their anger.
Half a year later, Guo Yueqing married into the Third Prince's mansion and became a concubine. Luo Chen and Qian Fugui came back to attend the wedding. At the wedding.
Li Rumei and Guo Yan warned the Qian family not to bully their daughter. As soon as the Qian family saw that the Bo's Mansion had stepped in, Guo Yueqing also married into the Third Prince's Mansion.
They also restrained themselves a little. After so many years, they knew who they could offend and who they could not offend.
Luo Chen was flattered, but of course he had no choice but to cling to his mother's family in the hope of living a good life.
Since then, Guo Yueqing often made appointments with Luo Chen to support her. Luo Chen knew that she had her own purpose, but in order to live a better life, he accompanied her and pretended to be virtuous.
Qian Fugui didn't take it seriously until Luo Chen became pregnant half a year later. At that time, the four illegitimate sons in the family were already four or five years old.
Each of them is Qian's mother's treasure. On the other hand, Luo Chen is not welcome in this family because she was married off as a substitute.
Therefore, Guo Yueqing asked Luo Chen to think carefully. She was pregnant with a daughter and she was not liked by the Qian family. Her daughter would be even more miserable in the future.
If she helps the Third Prince fight against the Fourth Prince and the Eighth Prince of Concubine Lan, then Guo Yueqing will become the favorite concubine in the future and will be able to suppress the Qian family.
The Qian family will never dare to bully Luo Chen again, but if the fourth prince or the eighth prince of Concubine Lan becomes the emperor, then the Qian family will be the emperor’s uncle’s family.
Luo Chen and her child would be finished with it, and being kicked out of the house was considered a good thing. Luo Chen also understood this, so for this glimmer of hope, she helped Guo Yueqing.
Therefore, after giving birth to the child, when she went to pay her respects to Concubine Lan, she handed a witchcraft doll to the maid who was planted in her palace by Concubine Shu, the mother of the third prince.
Not long after, Concubine Lan was found out from the palace for cursing the emperor, and many evil deeds done by Concubine Lan were also discovered. The emperor was furious.
He never expected that the woman he loved most was such a vicious person, so he immediately ordered Concubine Lan to be executed.
The thirteen-year-old Fourth Prince and the two-year-old Eighth Prince were adopted out, the Qian family was ransacked, and Luo Chen was arrested.
She quickly begged the officials to send a letter to her elder sister, the third prince's concubine, to save them and their daughter.
The official also delivered a letter, but Guo Yueqing and Jing'an Marquis' Mansion both said that the Marquis' Mansion did not have this daughter. After the official brought the message back, Luo Chen was completely desperate.
She prayed that her family would show some kindness to her, but the truth was that her family had no kindness at all and just took advantage of her.
In the end, the entire Qian family was executed, and Luo Chen and his newborn daughter were given poisoned wine for Guo Yueqing's sake.
After getting rid of Concubine Lan, Concubine Shu became Concubine Shu. The mother and son had no strong rivals in the harem, and the third prince successfully became the crown prince.
Five years later, he succeeded to the throne and Guo Yueqing was named Concubine Qing. Her son was the eldest son, and a new round of succession struggle began.
[Her wish is revenge and to take control of her own life. ]
"Row."
When Luo Chen arrived, it happened to be the time when the carriage from the Bo's Mansion came to pick people up at the farm. At this time, Luo Chen looked like a country girl, wearing coarse linen clothes.
She had no ornaments on her head, only her hair was tied up with a chopstick. Her face was sallow and her body was thin. It was obvious that she was malnourished.
At this time, the carriage had arrived at the gate of the manor, and the maid Wang Pozi came to find Luo Chen and said, "Congratulations, Third Miss. The Lord and the Madam asked me to take the Third Prince back to the mansion."
Luo Chen asked happily in an instant: "Really? Did my parents really ask you to pick me up and take me back home?"
Mrs. Wang looked Luo Chen up and down with some disdain. She thought that Luo Chen was not as good as her own daughter Shui Ling. She thought of her mistress's instructions.
Then she smiled and said, "Yes, it was the Lord and Madam who asked me to come here. Miss Third, please come back with me."
The second young lady has already cleaned up the room and is waiting for the third young lady to come home."
Luo Chen quickly ran out and got on the carriage. Wang Po rolled her eyes at her and got on the carriage immediately after her.
After entering the city, Luo Chen lifted the curtain and saw someone riding a horse on the street. Then walking towards the direction of the palace, he found out that it was a soldier.
Probably he was delivering a memorial to the emperor, so he immediately raised his hand and threw a stone at the horse's eyes, causing the horse to run around in pain.
She was led by Luo Chen to her side, and suddenly the carriage on the other side was overturned and Luo Chen fell out of the carriage.
There was a big bloody wound on his head, and then he lay on the ground motionless.
When people from the Beijing government office came over to check, they found that Luo Chen was already dead, and the matter was reported.
After all, it was the border officers and soldiers who came back to deliver the battle report, and the horse lost control and hit and killed the daughter of the Bo family. This matter had to be resolved.
This matter was known to the whole capital in an instant, and the third daughter of the Bo family died before she even returned home.
When Guo Yueqing and Li Rumei learned the news, they were immediately panicked and at a loss. They asked Luo Chen to come back in order to marry her into the Qian family.
If this person died, the one who would get married would be Guo Yueqing.
If the death was silent, someone could be found to assume his identity, but the whole capital knew about Luo Chen's death, so how could he find someone to marry in his place?
