Chapter 550 Yun Ran is anxious to return to the Prime Minister's Mansion
It only destroyed Li Mengyue's innocence and cut off the possibility of Li Mengyue returning to the Prime Minister's Mansion, but it was far from enough to eliminate the hatred in her heart.
Li Mengyue had occupied her identity for more than ten years and lived the life of a rich lady, while she, on the other hand, could not get enough food to eat in Xinghua Village and had to face beatings and scoldings from the old hag, living a life worse than that of pigs and dogs.
If she didn't know that her identity had been changed and that she was the legitimate daughter of a powerful family, she would definitely accept her fate and, under the arrangement of her family, marry a man who was willing to pay a high bride price and have children with him. As for what kind of life she would live after marriage, it was beyond her ability to guess.
If she is lucky, she may meet a caring and understanding man who will allow her to break away from her original family. If she is unlucky, she will have to repeat her previous life endlessly.
But God treated Yun Ran well. When she tried every means to resist the fate, she encountered the evil system, which changed her bad fate and made her the legitimate daughter of the prime minister's mansion.
This is not enough. Only when Li Mengyue is in an irretrievable situation and can never recover, can she let go. Otherwise, she will continue to fight with Li Mengyue until death.
Therefore, when she learned that Liu Quan did not stockpile grain as she requested and had lost the bargaining chip to please the third prince, she gave up on Liu Quan without saying a word.
She didn't care about how Liu Quan was doing in prison or when he would die. She only knew that Liu Quan was incompetent and she was very merciful by not killing him herself.
Afterwards, she went to Xinghua Village and found Old Lady Li in the village.
After more than two years, Old Lady Li was still the same as before, greedy for money. She just took out five taels of silver, and Old Lady Li told her everything she wanted to know.
From Old Lady Li, I learned that all the changes in the village were related to Li Mengyue, and all the villagers in the seven villages in Qingshan Town listened to Li Mengyue. No matter what Li Mengyue said, the villagers would execute it unconditionally.
For example, when Li Mengyue asked everyone to build a reservoir and dig a canal, everyone responded immediately and started assigning tasks without anyone dragging their feet.
To be honest, she was still very surprised when she heard Old Lady Li say this. Thinking of the two years she had been with Li Mengyue, she knew Li Mengyue's character too well. How could Li Mengyue have such an ability?
But the facts made her believe it. She saw with her own eyes the villagers digging the canal enthusiastically. She didn't understand why Li Mengyue had changed so much.
However, there was one thing she was very clear about, that was that Li Mengyue survived. Even though she was beaten all over her body, her face was disfigured, and she was drugged, Li Mengyue did not die. She returned to Xinghua Village and recognized her biological parents.
How is this possible? How could Li Mengyue survive after suffering such serious injuries?
The most important purpose of her asking Liu Quan to come to Wuning County was to stockpile food and completely cut off Li Mengyue's path, but that was just a side job.
Because she didn't believe that Li Mengyue could continue to live in that state.
The result was beyond her expectations. Not only did Li Mengyue not die, but she was also doing well in Xinghua Village. The seven villages in Qingshan Town united and all obeyed Li Mengyue.
She knew that Old Lady Li was not lying and that Li Mengyue had indeed done these things in Qingshan Town.
She returned to Xinghua Village from the capital with great difficulty, not to see Li Mengyue living a happy life, but to capture the third prince.
But there was no hope for the Third Prince, so she could only vent her anger on Li Mengyue.
What she didn't expect was that Li Mengyue was not in the village. Unable to find Li Mengyue, she went to Li's house to find her adoptive parents.
When she arrived at the Li family's new house, she did not see her adoptive mother, Mrs. Li, but only saw her adoptive father, Li An.
She originally thought that she had been gone for two years and her adoptive parents would always be worried about her. If they saw her back, they would not cry but would be very excited.
As a result, although her adoptive father Li An was enthusiastic about her and let her in, she did not feel the love of a father for his daughter.
She knew that this was all caused by Li Mengyue. Li Mengyue was a disaster. Not only did she steal her identity and make her live in poverty for more than ten years, she also took away the love of her adoptive parents.
At that moment, her hatred for Li Mengyue reached its peak. She believed that if Li Mengyue was in front of her at that time, she would definitely strangle Li Mengyue to death.
She kept it a secret from her parents and went back to Wuning County on her own. She did not get what she wanted but instead became very angry and wanted to go back to Beijing directly.
However, when she was about to leave Xinghua Village, Old Lady Li caught up with her and revealed an important piece of news to her, saying that her adoptive mother, Li, had been found by her nephew from her mother's side and had returned to her mother's home with him.
She was raised by Li since she was a child, and she knew her adoptive mother very well. She knew that her adoptive mother had lost her memory and did not remember who she was or where her home was.
She only had a handkerchief with the word "Wan" embroidered on it, so everyone called her Wan Niang.
Not only the people in Xinghua Village knew about this, but people in the surrounding villages also knew about it.
But no matter what Old Lady Li said, her adoptive mother Li was actually found by her nephew and followed him away.
This is not the most important thing. Old Mrs. Li said that Li’s nephew from the Lian family is surnamed Xie and his family lives in the capital.
She didn't take it seriously at the time and thought it was no big deal.
But now she saw with her own eyes that Shen Yu, who pretended to be Xie Wan'er's daughter, actually walked out of the eldest prince's palace.
Watching Shen Yu's figure getting farther and farther away, suddenly an idea came to her mind, and she remembered what Old Lady Li said about her adoptive mother returning to Beijing to recognize her relatives.
My adoptive mother Li’s nephew’s surname was Xie, and there was a word “Wan” on his handkerchief, so everyone in the village called my adoptive mother Wan Niang.
"My surname is Xie, Wanniang, Xie Waner."
Qiao'er stood behind her young lady and saw that she suddenly became excited. She didn't know why her young lady's mood changed so much. She only heard her talking non-stop.
"My surname is Xie, Wanniang, Xie Waner."
……
"Yes, that's right. Li is Xie Wan'er. The missing lady from Prince An's Mansion is Li. Li is Xie Wan'er. Li is Xie Wan'er."
"So, Li is the daughter of Prince An's Mansion, and Shen Yu pretends to be Xie Wan'er's daughter. Isn't this just usurping the position that belongs to me?"
"That's it. I'm Li's daughter, and Li is Xie Wan'er. Shen Yu pretended to be Xie Wan'er's daughter."
"Qiao'er, hurry up, I have something important to tell my father."
"Yes, ma'am."
Yun Ran took Qiao'er and hurried back to the Prime Minister's Mansion and went straight to Prime Minister Yun's study.
But as soon as he reached the study door, he was stopped by the servants.
"Second Miss, the Prime Minister has ordered that no one is allowed to disturb us."
"I have something very urgent and important to tell Dad. Go and let him know."
"Second Miss, please don't embarrass me. The Prime Minister really said that no one is allowed to enter the study today."
"Dad, Dad, I'm Ran'er, I really have something important and urgent."
"Father, father..."
Yun Ran was about to call a few more times when a voice came from the study asking her to come in.
"Come in."
"Okay, Daddy."
