Why did a group of roving bandits suddenly appear in Jiangzhou?
Why did they have such a clear target?
Why did they appear when Ling Yaodong and Mrs. Fan went to the temple to worship and were on guard?
All of this was worth further investigation.
After escorting his wife and daughter back home that day, Ling Yaodong immediately used his power to investigate, but the person behind the scenes was clean and no real evidence was found.
However, Ling Yaodong and Mrs. Fan knew that the person who wanted them dead must be Old Mrs. Wu.
Just because there was no evidence, the couple could only swallow their anger.
Before the birth of this little daughter, the first branch had three children, among whom the eldest son Ling Zihuai was born to Ling Yaodong from his wife Mrs. Fan.
The second son Ling Ziyu and the eldest daughter Ling Lian were born from concubines.
This daughter was Mrs. Fan’s only daughter and the only legitimate daughter of the first branch.
The daughters of this generation of the Ling family had the grass radical, so Mrs. Fan named her Zhuo, hoping that she would grow up healthily.
Perhaps because of premature birth, Ling Zhuo has been weak since childhood. She had stepped on the edge of the gate of hell several times, but she was dragged back by Ling Yaodong and Fan Fang with precious medicinal materials.
In addition, the emperors of all dynasties had treated the descendants of the Ling family well because of the grace of the Ling family’s Old Marquis for saving their ancestors.
After knowing this, they specially dispatched an imperial physician, who would be available whenever he was called, to treat the Young Lady of the Ling family.
The imperial physician specialized in pediatrics. Whenever the princes and princesses in the palace had a fever or a cold, the first person they thought of was the imperial physician. Under his treatment, Ling Zhuo recovered quickly.
When she was six or seven years old, she could already run and jump. She was no different from an ordinary full-term baby.
Because she was often sick when she was a child, Ling Zhuo took away most of her parents’ attention.
The late Marquis of Changping, who was still alive at the time, probably realized the conspiracy behind the accident of his eldest son and wife. He felt guilty and loved this little granddaughter more and more.
When the private property was distributed before the death of the late Marquis of Changping, Ling Zhuo was the only one among all the grandchildren who gained something except the eldest grandson.
You should know that part of the private property of the late Marquis of Changping came from the Old Madam of the Old Marquis of Changping.
The Old Marquis of Changping started his career with military merits and was also a founding hero of the Li Dynasty. He had countless good things in his hands, and most of the jewelry and accessories that women liked were given to the Old Madam by the Old Marquis of Changping.
All these things were passed on to the late Marquis of Changping as Old Madam’s private property, and his illegitimate brothers did not get a single cent.
Everyone knew that the private property of the late Marquis of Changping was even richer than that of the public property.
Even if what they got was only the tip of the iceberg of the late Marquis of Changping’s private property, it would be enough to make other people in the mansion jealous.
What’s more, Ling Yaodong and his wife, who inherited the bulk of the private property of the late Marquis of Changping, are Ling Zhuo’s biological parents.
According to their love for Ling Zhuo, when Ling Zhuo gets married, they will definitely give her a generous dowry.
In terms of money alone, Ling Zhuo was enough to make other sisters in the Marquis’ Mansion envious.
After Ling Yaodong inherited the title, Ling Zhuo became the only legitimate daughter of the Marquis of Changping, which was much more noble than the original status of the legitimate daughter of the heir of the Marquis of Changping.
It could be said that among all the girls of Ling Zhuo’s generation, Ling Zhuo was the most noble girl.
The servants of the Marquis’ Mansion took advantage of the situation and loved to curry favor with the Young Lady Ling Zhuo. They boasted about her all the time.
Over time, everyone really believed that Ling Zhuo was the outstanding girl they described her to be and that no one could compare to her except the princess.
The first person to discover the problem was Mrs. Fan.
When her daughter was young and weak, she put all her heart into her daughter’s health. When her daughter’s health gradually improved, Mrs. Fan began to notice things that she had never paid attention to before, such as her daughter Ling Zhuo’s appearance.
Mrs. Fan’s appearance was not in line with the mainstream aesthetics of the Li Dynasty.
The Li Dynasty admired women with slender figures and graceful figures. Mrs. Fan’s plump figure and bright appearance were too vulgar in mainstream aesthetics and should not be the appearance of the main wife of the clan.
