A thousand
lanterns have
fallen and a beautiful face has passed away: I still remember that a thousand lanterns have fallen when
the thrush is full of love, but he still hasn’t returned.
Madam, it’s late. Your lordship may have been delayed by official business, so you can settle down first. The maid advised me to rest.
But I know where he was delayed by business. He went to see his sweetheart.
His sweetheart Bai Wanqing, whose husband was newly bereaved, returned to Beijing from the border with her child, who was just one month old.
As soon as he entered the city, Lu Kui couldn’t wait to see her.
Completely forget that today is my birthday.
“Take off my hairpin.”
Since I can’t wait, I won’t wait.
Later, he begged me to go back with red eyes.
But in this world, there is no turning back? When
Lu Kui came back, I was already asleep.
I had a dream. In the
dream, Bai Wanqing held her child and snuggled in Lu’s arms.
“Lu Kui!”! Lu Chi!
I shouted at him, but he didn’t hear me.
Instead, Bai Wanqing, who was in his arms, raised her head and sneered at me.
Her eyes were both proud and resentful.
“He is mine, and you should have given him back to me long ago!”
At a glance, it makes me feel cold.
I woke up in a cold sweat and couldn’t sleep any more.
I don’t know how long it took, but Lu finally came back.
He moved very lightly, as if he was afraid to wake me.
However, I didn’t fall asleep at all. I just pretended to be asleep. I
felt him lift the quilt and go to bed, but instead of hugging me as usual, he lay upright.
He even carefully kept some distance from me.
Vaguely, a familiar fragrance of peach blossoms came from the nose. I recognize
this fragrance.
It is the incense made by my good friend Bai Wanqing.
Anyone who has been in close contact with her will remain fragrant.
He really went to see her.
Realizing this, I didn’t sleep well at all this night. When I woke up
the next day, I asked him why he came back late.
He explained to me, “Some of my colleagues dragged me to have a drink, but I couldn’t push them, so I came back late.” His eyes dodged when he spoke, and he dared not look directly at me.
“Do you remember that yesterday was my birthday?”
He had made an appointment with me to go to the theatre to celebrate his birthday.
He patted his forehead and chagrined, “Huh?”? You see, I forgot such an important thing! Next time I’ll invite the party to come home and make up for my wife’s birthday!
I was noncommittal and felt a little sad in my heart.
We grew up together as childhood sweethearts, and every time he missed an appointment, it was because of Bai Wanqing. The compensation
he should make has not been followed up.
So this time, I didn’t expect him to keep his promise.
What’s more, yesterday was not only my birthday, but also the day when we were married for three years.
I can’t make up for it.
I had the idea of leaving with Lu Kui.
But since that day I have been ill. As long as
half a month, the Mid-Autumn Festival was approaching, and there was an improvement. In
the past half month, Lu Kui went home from the court and took good care of me even more than before. He even took care of the medicine himself and fed it to me before he would give up.
Seeing him like this, my heart softened a little.
After all, he and Bai Wanqing are in the past, if he can turn back, I don’t want to make too much trouble.
Both of them are prominent families in Beijing, and it’s not good for anyone to make trouble.
Unexpectedly, on the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, Lu Kui relapsed and left me alone at her mother’s home for the sake of Bai Wanqing.
“When will the brother-in-law come?”
The elder sister married far away, and now she is accompanying her brother-in-law back to Beijing to report on her work. She is most concerned about me. When I ran after Lu Kui, she did not agree, saying that I would suffer losses, and I did not listen to advice. Now seeing me go home alone, she opened her mouth and said with concern.
“He was recently promoted to the post of Shaoqing of Taichang Temple, and he was to preside over the Mid-Autumn Festival sacrifice in the palace. He came later.” Let me explain for Lu.
However, he did not come until night closed and I got into the carriage to go home.
On the way, a boy was sent to send a message, saying that he was busy with his official duties and asked me to go home by myself. I
felt something strange in my heart, so I sent someone to inquire.
Sure enough, it was Bai Wanqing again.
Today, there was a thief in Su Bai’s house. He lost a lot of gold and silver jewelry, and the owner was frightened. Lord Lu, Shaoqing
of Taichang Temple, happened to pass by and took care of the matter.
What a passing one! The matter of
stealing is under the jurisdiction of Tingwei Mansion. He is a Shaoqing of Taichang Temple. What kind of leisure does he have!
Heh.
And divorce can’t be put off any longer. When
Lu Kui returned home, it was already late at night. He was slightly surprised to
see that I didn’t sleep.
“Your ladyship is still in bed?” When I
didn’t answer, I asked, “You didn’t come to the banquet just now. Ah Niang asked you why your official duties were so important.”
“Ah, it’s not a big deal. It’s just a routine sacrifice in the Mid-Autumn Palace.”. I didn’t have enough people, so I stayed a little longer. I’m afraid you’ll wait too long, so I won’t go at all. He asked the servant to take off his robe, clean his hands, and answer very fluently, as if he had already thought about it.
It’s hard for him to find a reason to hide it from me. The theft of Bai Fu is such a big event that everyone in Chang’an Street knows it. He still treats me like I used to be, and what he says is what he says.
I lowered my eyes to hide the disappointment in my eyes and said lightly, “You are tired after a day’s work. Settle down.”
Just now, I gave myself one last chance.
But he chose not to tell the truth. When I
lay down, I rolled over and turned my back to him.
He didn’t hold me like he used to. Under
a quilt, two people have their own thoughts.
I stared at the void in the darkness, and my thoughts were confused.
I don’t know how long it took me to fall asleep and be haunted by nightmares. There were red quilts and green clothes in
front of us for a while, and white people rolled together for a while.
“Son of a bitch!”
A shout of abuse woke me up.
I was sweating all over.
Looking up, his side was empty, and Lu Kui did not know where to go.
I dreamed that he and Bai Wanqing were living together.
Recalling the scene in my dream, I felt sick.
Even when I think of Lu’s face, I can’t help but feel sick.
Bai Wanqing was born in the Bai family in Nancheng, which is also a scholarly family.
At that time, Old Master Bai and Old Master Lu were two masters of the literary world.
Two people’s literary talent is outstanding, a moment of Yu Liang, but I do not know why, do not like each other.
Later, there was an unwritten rule that the two families of Bai and Lu did not marry each other. After the death of the old man of
the Pai family, several sons could not support the family business, so they were all sent to the local areas one after another.
Bai Wanqing’s father, Master Bai, married Bai Wanqing to a general guarding the frontier in order to find a good place to go.
She was a good friend in my boudoir. Although I was ill on the day I got married, I struggled to see her off.
She cried so much that she almost broke her heart and held my hand and refused to let go.
I thought she was reluctant to part with me.
Later, I learned that she was actually crying for herself.
She and Lu Kui carried me on their backs and secretly came and went, and they were already in love with each other.
Now married far away from the border, and the beloved husband’s life apart, natural pain through the heart.
The most ridiculous thing is that the two people closest to me betrayed me at the same time, but I was kept in the dark and had unrealistic dreams.
Recently, Lu Kui has become even busier, gradually staying out at night, saying only that he is busy with his official duties.
Recently, he was promoted to Shaoqing of Taichang Temple, and he really had a lot of social intercourse. Among
them, only he knows best whether he has seen anyone secretly.
I asked once, and then I stopped asking. If you ask too many questions about
some things, you are really asking for trouble. He can give the name of Mrs.
Lu to whoever he wants.
I ordered the personal servant girl to take stock of her things and prepare to have a showdown with Lu Qi.
At this time, the old lady Lu had an accident.
This day the servant girl came to report that Mrs. Lu had lost her temper early in the morning, and then she was unconscious.
“How can that be?”
Although I don’t get along well with the old lady, I am an elder after all, and I should care about what I should care about.
Two servants carelessly broke the old lady’s beloved porcelain vase. The old lady was angry, and she beat the man and sold him.
Just two servants, even if the broken is a valuable object, with the old lady’s origin, what good things have not seen, will not be angry to faint, there must be something else. After repeated questioning,
I realized that the old lady’s nemesis today, Mrs. Lin, had come to show off to her that she had added a big fat grandson to her family, and by the way, she had ridiculed the Lu family for having no queen.
The old lady was unhappy, and for a moment she was depressed and fainted.
The old lady also said that no one in the house expected her to be good. Outsiders bully her, even the servants do not put her in the eye. In a rage, he wanted to send all the maids away and replace them with a new batch. Before he had finished speaking, he fainted.
The servant girl went on hesitantly.
I listened to the face slightly heavy, the old lady this is refers to mulberry scold Huai, borrow the matter of replacement to beat me.
Get rid of the old and replace it with the new. I want to accept a new person for Lu Kui.
But when Lu Leng’s two families got married, there was an agreement.
Had it not been for my ten years of absence, Lu Kui would never have been able to take a concubine.
Now I have been married to Lu Kui for three years, and although I have nothing, I have not reached the time agreed by the two families.
If the Lu family breaks its promise and takes a concubine to Lu Kui, it will certainly break the spine.
After all, our General’s Office is kind to the Lu family.
At that time, the Lu family declined, and others avoided it.
The Leng family abided by the marriage vows made by the two grandfathers and married me.
After that, the Lu family took advantage of the strength of our Lengfu to quickly regain its momentum.
Therefore, even if Mrs. Lu doesn’t like me anymore, she can’t fall out with me face to face.
“Have you sent for a doctor?”
At this juncture, I can only hope that she is all right, otherwise there will be complications with the divorce.
“Yes, I’m watching.” The servant girl led me to the old lady’s charity hall.
After treatment, the old lady has woken up. He called
me to the bedside and gave me a lecture. All I talk about
is having grandchildren.
As soon as I was old, I said I would close my eyes. You still have a long way to go, and you can’t have no one to take care of your affairs in the future. The old lady looked at me as she spoke.
“Is that according to mother’s wishes?”
I followed her words and asked.
It was the first time I had made a concession to her on this matter, and the old lady could hardly restrain her smile.
I think it’s time for you to have a baby. If you feel hard, the frost girl beside me is a good one, let her serve you. If she is blessed with a son and a daughter, she will be carried to your room and raised, and she will come back to me as usual. What do you think?
Sure enough, the old lady wanted to stuff people around Lu Kui.
Because of the agreement between the two families, it was not good for her to take a concubine and get a servant girl, but Ming Lu was not a breach of contract.
If I were in the past, I would not agree to this proposal.
But now, I’m going to divorce. She can stuff as many as she wants.
I immediately nodded and said, “Mother is right, so let it be.” Old Lady
Lu was overjoyed and immediately called out Ning Shuang to kowtow to me.
“Get up.” I can’t stand
this gift. Leave it to Bai Wanqing in the future.
Bai Wanqing is not a good mother, this congealed frost eyes shrewd, I am afraid it is not a good stubble.
When I think of the way they will grind each other in the future, I feel happy in my heart. The smile on
his face was brighter. As soon as Lu Kui returned to his room
that night, the frost went up with all its strength.
I pretended not to see and let her throw her eyes and hands at Lu.
Lu Kui was taken aback. Aren’t
you the servant girl who served my mother? Why are you in my room? “The old lady asked the maidservant to wait on the master and his wife,” said
Ning Shuang shyly.
A pair of cut water beautiful eyes are affectionate, and anyone who sees them will feel pity.
Lu Kui took a few steps back. He looked at me with
puzzled eyes.
Congealed frost see this, a face hurt.
“Stand down first.” After all
the servants were dismissed, there were only two people left in the room, me and Lu Kui. After pouring a cup of tea for
him, I opened the door and said to the mountain,
“Let’s leave together.”
“Why?” Lu Kui was surprised to knock over the teacup.
The tea was poured directly on his front, and a large water stain was opened.
“If you don’t like what your mother is doing, you can refuse.”
He thought I was because of the frost.
“It’s not her.”
I took out a carved yellow pear wooden box from the end of the bed, and Lu Jianzhi’s face changed greatly.
Lady.. Have you seen them all?
Lady, don’t get me wrong.. Even if she and I were not innocent in the past, we have not exchanged any letters since we married you.
Seeing that I was silent, Lu Kui hurriedly explained. No
more contacts? “Where were you on the day of my birthday and on the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival?”
I asked with a sneer.
Lu Kui was questioned by me in a dumb voice. He was born white. At this time, his face was so white that there was no human color.
He had stood up straight, but suddenly he sat down.
Seeing that he is different from the past, my heart is sour. When I
first entered Lu Fu, I was full of expectations. Lu and
I are childhood sweethearts, and we have no guesses.
He once won the most beautiful lantern for me at the Lantern Festival Glutinous Rice Balls for Lantern Festival.
He once paid a lot of money for me to find the best opera troupe to set up a stage for me.
He once made a solemn promise to me under the pear tree. I will not let you down in
this life! I will make you the happiest woman in the capital of the world.
I believe it.
I thought we would be like my father and my mother, raising their eyebrows, giving birth to a lot of lovely children, and finally grow old.
But contrary to my wishes, no matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t really get into Lu’s heart. I didn’t know the truth
until that day.
That day, I accidentally bumped into the mechanism in his study and found the box.
Inside are Bai Wanqing’s heartfelt letters and embroidered Mandarin duck purses.
Looking at the folds of the letter, it must have been read countless times. The owner of
this box must always look at it.
The letter lay quietly in the box.
Like a poisoned knife, straight into my heart, blood dripping.
My hands trembled, and I felt a pain in my lower abdomen, and blood flowed out slowly. That’s how
I lost my first child with him.
In fact, as early as when I found the letter, I thought about divorcing him.
But at that time, the court was in turmoil, the emperor was afraid that the Leng family held the military power, and Yushitai stared at our Leng family. If I quarrel and divorce, with my father’s temper will certainly not spare Lu Kui, that will fall the handle. For the sake of my parents and the preservation of the cold family, I choose to endure. Selfishly,
I thought that as long as Bai Wanqing did not come back, the crack between me and Lu Kui could be healed after all. One day, I will replace Bai Wanqing in his heart.
But the world is unpredictable, Bai Wanqing came back. Between
me and Lu Kui, the precarious point of Wen Qing, also suddenly disappeared.
I swallowed the bitter fruit alone.
Now, it’s really time to make a decision. Let’s
divorce. I’ve ordered people to pack up the things, and I’ve drawn up the book of departure. You can just press your handprint when you come back. Then,
regardless of how he looked, he went to sleep. When he woke up
the next morning, Lu Kui was no longer there. Li Runze, the doctor who treated
me, came to see me again as usual.
This is the last time I feel the pulse before I leave Lu Fu.
Li Runze was born in the Imperial Hospital and was the son of the late judge of the Imperial Hospital.
The original court ruled that Li yuanchang and my father were old friends, so he had been taking care of my body for me.
Today he felt my pulse as usual, but his expression was different.
How is it? But there’s no harm in saying it. “Madam is one month pregnant,”
he said, frowning.
My heart missed a beat.
His face told me that the situation must not be optimistic.
“But what’s wrong?”
I asked in a trembling voice, unconsciously pinching my nails into the flesh.
Li Run-tse looked up at me and said, “Madam, I had a child before, and the foundation was damaged. My son had another illness the other day.”. I’m afraid it will be very difficult to keep this one.
Although I had a premonition, when I heard him say that, I couldn’t asthma and coughed.
“Cough..”
Li Runze quickly dredged the meridians for me with a silver needle and told me that there was a way to save the child.
“Don’t get excited, madam. It’s not that there’s no way to keep the child.”
I stopped coughing and said slowly,
“What if I don’t want this baby?”
“No?” He was stunned.
This child is the long-awaited heir of Lu Fu, and it is also the child that he nursed for me for more than a year and conceived through untold hardships.
I don’t want it anymore.
He did not understand, and his eyes were full of inquiry.
“Please forgive Li for not understanding his wife’s meaning.”
“I can’t say much, but I’ll ask Brother Runze to give me an abortion.”
In order to get him to give me an abortion, I don’t even need an honorific.
Really, this child comes at a bad time.
If before Bai Wanqing comes back, I will be ecstatic.
But now, Lu’s heart has fallen elsewhere.
This child has become a burden.
“Have you really thought about it, madam?”
Li Runze’s eyes were deep and deep, and for the first time he did not shy away from looking into my eyes.
I nodded.
“Please give me some medicine.”
Before it comes, I haven’t established too deep ties with it, so it’s better to break up as soon as possible.
Li Runze did not answer, but silently put away the medicine box and left. Before
I could stop him, Lu came back.
I had to give up.
Let’s settle the matter of divorce first.
I told the servant girl to take out our bags.
“What are you doing?” Seeing this,
Lu Kui came up and grabbed something from my hand.
“Of course it’s back to Lengfu!”
“Are you still angry about that?”
Listen to me. Wanqing and I are not what you think. She was a widow with a child, and the whole Bai family moved south. She had no relatives in the capital city. I was moved by compassion, and I was afraid that you would think too much, so I hid it from you. Today I went out of my way to make it clear to her that I won’t be seeing her again. Trust me.
I pursed my lips and stubbornly said nothing. Seeing this,
Lu Kui continued in a soft voice: “All right, don’t make a scene.”
His casual tone, as if I were making trouble out of nothing, completely angered me.
I’m serious, Lu. We and! Leave! I said word by word.
Seeing that my attitude was so firm, there was a touch of incredible in his eyes.
After a long time, he hesitantly asked again, “Do you really want to go?”
I nodded.
I left Lufu.
Without saying goodbye to the two elders of the Lu family, he got into the carriage and went straight back to the cold house two streets away.
My parents were surprised to see me go home.
I briefly talked about Lu Kui and Bai Wanqing, and the two elders were so angry that they almost went to the door.
I quickly persuaded them. Now although my father has released the military power, idle at home, but if something happens, it may not be able to escape.
Father and mother, I don’t like him anymore, and you don’t have to hurt yourself for him. Let’s divorce and get back the dowry that should belong to the Leng family.
Over the years, Lu Fu’s food and clothing expenses can still maintain such wealth, relying mostly on my dowry.
Master Lu was aloof and did not want to be contaminated with the stink of money, but it would cost a lot of money for the whole family to eat and drink and maintain their dignity. A large part of the money is subsidized by my dowry.
If I divorce with Lu, it is estimated that the life of the Lu family will be much more difficult. “Yes,” said
my father angrily! We must bring back what belongs to our Leng family!
“There is something more difficult than divorce at the moment.” I said. My
parents are the people I trust most. I told the whole story about being pregnant and wanting to abort the child.
My parents were first delighted, then shocked and worried. “My son,” said my
mother anxiously, “it’s not easy for you to get pregnant. If this baby is gone, it will be difficult to conceive again.”
She’s right, but this child is Lu’s, and if I’m determined to divorce him, I can’t keep the child.
“My body was nursed by my brother Zun Ze. He was the one who diagnosed my happy pulse. My parents invited him to the mansion. He must have a way to help me.”
This matter can not be done without Li Runze.
He is the master of the apricot forest in Liang.
It’s just that when he left that day, he looked so hard that he didn’t know whether he would help me or not.
Unfortunately, Li Runze was sent to Jingzhou to cure the plague.
My parents found a reliable doctor to feel my pulse, but the doctor said that my body was weak, and if I had a forced abortion, I would be afraid of my life.
My mother quickly waved her hand and said that we would not have an abortion.
My father frowned and looked at me, showing his worry in his eyes.
I lowered my head and stroked my stomach, which was not yet in my bosom, and meditated.
Let’s wait for Li Runze. On the other side,
Lu Kui froze and refused to divorce me. The two elders of the Lu
family now knew that I was going to divorce him. Master Lu was so bitter that he sent Lu to the door several times, but my father turned him away.
I stayed at home for a month and never left the house.
The next time I saw Lu Kui was a month later at the Tiansheng Restaurant.
On that day, the sisters in my family saw me closed the door and were afraid that I would be bored, so they asked me to go out to relax.
I happened to meet Lu Kui in a restaurant.
We were outside the door, listening to the talk and laughter inside.
One of them said, “I heard that Lord Lu’s little wife went back to her parents’ home in a fit of pique.”? Are you clamoring for divorce?
Another quipped, “I’ve heard that Lord Lu has been turned away a few times.”
Lu Kui was silent for a moment, then replied in a deep voice, “It’s just a bad temper. She’ll be back in two days.” When they heard
this, they all laughed. “Lord Lu has the means.”
Then someone teased him and Bai Wanqing.
I’ve heard that Su Bai and Lord Lu are quite congenial, and that she and your wife are old acquaintances. It seems that Lord Lu is going to enjoy the blessings of all the people!
Say that finish, the crowd is a burst of laughter, followed by the sound of pushing a cup for a change. The second elder sister of the
same trade was full of anger, obviously angry by the words of these people.
“Lu, you’re really good!”
My second elder sister was famous for her violent temper in Shangjing, and immediately kicked open the door of their room.
Suddenly, inside and outside the door, two waves of people looked at each other.
The atmosphere solidifies.
Lu Kui and I looked at each other.
I saw in his eyes embarrassment, consternation and.. A flash of dislike.
“Second Sister, let’s go. There’s no need to be angry with someone who doesn’t matter.”
I took her hand and tried to control her. If she
gets up regardless, she may really smash the restaurant.
I don’t want any trouble.
“Second Sister, we don’t have the same experience as people who have nothing to do with us.” When
Lu Kui heard that he was an insignificant person, his face turned pale for a moment, his lips moved, but he did not say a word.
“He Li Shu has been sent to Lord Lu’s house. From now on, Lord Lu will marry whoever he likes.”
I dropped this sentence and pulled my second sister away.
That night, Lu Kui came to the door and confessed to my parents.
My parents didn’t beat him out because they had been in love with each other for many years. When
he saw that he could not move my parents, he stayed at the door.
“Miss, Doctor Li is here.”
Li Runze was travel-stained and looked like he hadn’t changed his clothes yet, so he came to me.
“What happened in Jingzhou?” I asked.
“Mmm.”
He looked darker and thinner, and nodded without any expression on his face.
“And ask your wife to stretch out her hand and let Li feel your pulse.”
I corrected him, “Call me Tzu-chien as you used to. I’m not Mrs. Lu anymore.”
He looked up in surprise.
I did not shy away from looking at him, and the meaning in my eyes was very obvious.
I don’t want this baby.
Li Yun-tse gathered his eyebrows and changed the subject: “When I came here just now, I saw Lord Lu at the gate of your mansion.” Instead of answering,
I solemnly asked, “Can you help me get rid of this baby?”
Li Runze:..
Recently, in addition to my lethargy, my body is also peaceful under Li Runze’s recuperation.
He said that this child could be born, but it was very dangerous, and a little carelessness would kill me.
At the moment, he can only help me take good care of my body, and then look at the follow-up.
I said yes.
“Does Lord Lu still come every day?”
One day after examining the pulse, Li Runze suddenly asked about Lu Kui.
I was stunned and nodded. I don’t know why
Lu Kui pestered me every day and begged me to go back.
This situation, for a while and a half, and from the book is unable to get.
“Have you thought about it and don’t you regret it?” Li Runze asked me.
I thought about it carefully.
In those years, I trapped myself in the yard for the sake of Lu, trying to please and obey in every way. Even though I knew that he and Bai Wanqing had been sorry for me, I still wanted to give him a chance.
In the end, what he got was not his sincerity and turning back, but another betrayal.
I’ve seen it, and I’ve had enough.
“Well, the fate between me and him is over.”
Li Runze looked at me with deep meaning in his eyes.
The next day, Lu Kui stopped coming to the door.
I think he was finally fed up and relieved.
He was afraid that he could not come at the last minute, so he watched for two days.
Seeing that he would not come again, I stopped closing the gate and planned to go out for a stroll.
When I went out, I was in danger.
This day, I cleaned up and picked out a favorite skirt to go out.
I like bright and gorgeous, but after I married Lu, because he didn’t like the color that was too eye-catching, he always wore plain clothes.
Now I do whatever I want. Halfway
out of the door, a man jumped out of the corner.
“Madam, it’s no good. Something has happened to my Lord.”
The man knelt outside the carriage and said that something had happened to Lu. My
heart tightened, and I was about to catch up, when I immediately thought of the situation I was in with Lu Kui, and said, “Why don’t you go and report to the authorities when something has happened to your family? Why are you looking for me?” Finish
saying, in the heart faintly feel wrong to come. What’s the use of looking for me when
he has an accident? Seeing that he could not deceive me,
the man lifted me up and stuffed me into the carriage. He kicked out the coachman and hurried the carriage out of the city. The
carriage became more and more desolate, and I was so upset that I could not keep my body.
Stop! Stop!
Who knows he turns a deaf ear to, still added two whips energetically, the horse eats pain, scatter hoof to run wildly and go.
Not good!
I’m sure this man is coming for me.
This man’s eyes are strange, and I know all of Lu Kui’s personal servants, but I have never seen him. Captured
now, such as others to save, afraid too late, only self-protection.
As soon as I gritted my teeth and pulled out the hairpin on my head, I ventured out of the carriage, steadied myself with one hand, and put the hairpin between the man’s neck with the other.
“Stop!”
The man didn’t listen and grabbed it with his backhand, but he didn’t expect me to know martial arts. He underestimated the enemy for a while and was stabbed through the neck by me.
The man crooked and fell into the carriage.
The carriage was still galloping, and I lost control of the reins and saw a hillside in front of me.
“Whew!”
Just when I thought I was doomed today, my body lightened.
Turn around and land firmly on the ground.
It’s Li Runze.
He actually has good kung fu. It hasn’t been revealed for
so many years.
“Do you know martial arts?”
“I learned to body building and physical fitness when I was sick and weak at an early age.”
His words seemed to mock me for more than ten years of hard work. Only
then did I feel the pain in my abdomen, and I could not help but go limp and fall into his arms.
This scene happened to be seen by Lu Kui, who arrived on a fast horse.
You.. You
He was mistaken.
I’m too lazy to explain.
Li Runze stuffed something into my mouth and turned around to catch the thief, who had not yet died.
Li Runze took out a sachet from the thief’s bosom, embroidered with the word “Qing.”.
This embroidery method is unique, only Bai Wanqing.
Lu Kui grabbed the sachet in disbelief. “That’s impossible!”! Say! Who put you up to this?
Once the woman was involved, Lu Kui lost his reason, lost his hand, and beat the man out of breath with two or three strokes.
“There is no proof of death.”
Li Runze clapped his hands twice.
“Lord Lu, this is a wonderful feat.”
I.. Not on purpose..
Lu Kui felt guilty when he saw that he had killed the witness.
The matter has come to this point, a line of people turn around, reported to the yamen, because there is no proof of death, only for assassination theory.
In fact, we all know who is the real murderer behind it.
Bai Wanqing.
Her hand is too long.
Thinking of this, I touched my stomach again.
Back home, Li Runze felt my pulse, prescribed medicine, and went back.
Fortunately, I took good care of myself recently, so I didn’t die. Just as
I was about to rest, I heard the servant report back that Bai Wanqing had come to me. He refused to leave
at the door.
I had no choice but to look at it with the help of a servant. As soon as I stepped out of the door of the mansion, I saw her kneeling down at the door of the cold mansion and crying.
“Ask your sister to give your sister a way out.”
Bai Wanqing comes from a scholarly family.
Her kneeling at the gate of Lengfu caused a sensation in the capital.
Everyone said she was shameless, but someone was protecting her.
“Wanqing, she’s been driven out of her wits.”
Lu Kui knelt down in front of the two elders of the Lu family and confessed that Bai Wanqing was pregnant with his child. “It’s my fault. I drank too much that day..”
His father, Lu Ling, was the head of Qingliu. He was so angry that he trembled all over and greeted him with crutches. Lu Kui did not dodge, and got two solid blows.
“You will marry her over my dead body!”
“But she’s pregnant with the flesh and blood of the Lu family!” When
he defended Bai Wanqing, I was in a coma. As soon as
she knelt down, I got angry.
“Sister, I have Lu Lang’s flesh and blood.” In front of the
cold house, Pai Wan-ching stroked her stomach and looked at me sadly. “I will never compete with you as a wife,” she said. “I just want you to give me and this unborn child a place to live.”
I endured the pain, my face was calm, and I did not show the pain in front of her. Is
my sister kneeling in the wrong place? This is Leng Mansion, not Lu Mansion. And this is not to be said to me. I have proposed divorce, but he does not agree.
“He feels ashamed of you. Can you persuade him?”
Persuade your husband to take a concubine? I don’t think I’m so generous.
I shook off her hand and was about to turn around and enter the door when I heard a shout.
“What are you doing?”
Lu Kui galloped over and took Bai Wanqing, who was about to fall, into his arms and turned to look at me angrily.
He looked nervous, which was totally different from what he used to do to me.
“Lu Lang, it was my own carelessness and my sister’s carelessness.” I haven’t seen her for
so many years, but she is still so scheming.
I had a pain in my stomach and didn’t want to bother them, so I said to Lu with a cold face, “I didn’t push her. Believe it or not, it’s up to you.” Then,
no matter how they reacted, they ordered people to close the door of the mansion. Before
turning around, Bai Wanqing nestled in Lu’s arms, her eyes proud and resentful. It’s the same
as the scene in my dream.
He Li Shu was asked for by his father himself.
Heard that Lu Kui refused, made a scene, and finally the old man Lu came forward to sign it.
Daughter, as long as it’s what you want, Daddy will try to do it for you. I wouldn’t have liked him for a long time. If you hadn’t been protecting him..
“Father, don’t mention the past.”
I interrupted my father, who had been chattering about Lu’s faults since he came back from the Lu family.
Now I don’t even want to hear his name.
“Well, Dad won’t say anything.” Dad, stop talking.
My mother took my hand and comforted me by saying, “It’s no big deal, son. We can afford you in a cold family.”
“That’s right, I’ll raise you for the rest of your life!” My father echoed in a heroic manner.
I laughed out of tears, before I was silly, regardless of my family’s obstruction, I had to jump into the fire pit, thinking that I could not live without Lu.
Now out of the pit of fire, I know that I can live without him.
I hugged them and said with deep feeling, “Father, mother, it used to be the daughter who was not filial.”. From now on, my daughter will do her filial duty in front of the two elders.
Two days later, it was Princess Zhiya’s birthday.
I was her handkerchief, and naturally I received the invitation.
My mother was worried about my health and didn’t want me to go. But I have a deep sisterhood with Zhiya. This is her last birthday before she gets married. How can I not go?
Mother, don’t worry. Dr. Li has already seen me. It’s all right. Moreover, on the day of the princess’s birthday, he was on duty at the Imperial Hospital, and if her daughter had any discomfort, he could immediately treat her.
Hearing that Li Taiyi was on duty that day, his mother agreed.
I haven’t seen the princess for a long time, and she sent a sedan chair to pick me up.
“Ziqi, you’re here!”! I had someone make your favorite plum cheese. As soon as Zhiya saw me, he ordered his servants to bring up the food.
In fact, we broke up two years ago because of Lu. I thought it would be awkward to meet her this time, but I didn’t think she was the same as before.
She has a straight temper. Two years ago, she quarreled with me several times because she didn’t like Lu Kui, and then she broke up. A few days
ago, I heard that I divorced with Lu Kui, and she sent a big gift to my house on the same day to congratulate me on being single again.
“Thank you, Zhiya.”
How can you be so strange to me! You just sit here for a while, and I’ll be right back.
Zhiya hurriedly pulled me to sit down in a pavilion and went to entertain other guests. I used to come to
her Ningya Palace, so I sat and waited for her.
Across the rockery, I heard someone talking about me not far away.
Have you heard? The son of Lu Shang-shu’s family is getting married next month, and I hear he’s ready to do something about it!
“It’s so fast. Didn’t you just divorce the third girl of the Leng family?”
What and divorce! That’s just for the sake of General Quan Leng’s face.
“How do you say that?” The crowd listened with excitement. The
first man lowered his voice and said, “Miss Leng San hasn’t been out for many years. She should have given up. If General Leng hadn’t come to the door, how could the Lu family have agreed to divorce?”
One of them asked, “Is it possible that this is Mr. Lu’s problem?”
Are you stupid? Have you forgotten that the girl of the Bai family knelt down in front of the cold house and begged bitterly that day? She’s pregnant. The implication is
that no one is my problem. When they
heard this, they tutted. “No wonder!”
“It will be hard for Miss Leng San to find a husband again!” The voices behind
them were deliberately low, but my ears were so good that I could hear every word.
I was about to stand up and retort.
A hand held me down.
“Who said Miss Leng San couldn’t get married?”
It’s Princess Zhiya.
She did not know when to turn around and listen to the comments of the people, and then she wanted to stand up for me.
When the women saw that it was the princess, they fell to their knees, their faces ashen. But I could clearly see the remorse in their eyes.
To kneel down is just to yield to the royal status of Zhiya.
You women with long tongues, you gossip behind people’s backs! See what Princess Ben does to you today!
Zhiya was so impatient that he was about to attack them.
I turned around and stopped her. Now that she is about to marry far away, it is not appropriate to have more disputes at this time, which will make her father, mother and concubine unhappy, and may be harmful to her in the future.
“Princess, don’t be angry with these little people for my sake.” People in the
cold family never wronged themselves.
In the past, I lost the face of the Leng family, but now it’s different. When I left Lu, I went back to the Leng family.
“Lu Shao-ching and I, Lord Lu, did divorce, but because of mutual consent, not because of my father’s coercion as rumored.”
My father did use some means, but ultimately did not start, the Lu family know that they are in the wrong, there is no dilemma. As soon as
I finished, the women laughed silently, apparently not believing my explanation, and I was too lazy to say more.
“Is this the assistant minister’s wife?” I looked at the woman in crimson who led the way and asked.
Seeing her nodding, I said with a smile, “I’ve heard that your ladyship is generous and most considerate of her husband. She married seventeen concubines for the assistant minister. It’s a good story in Beijing.”. Now the assistant minister wants to change for a new one. I wonder if the 18th concubine has taken a good look at her? Poked
by me, the assistant minister’s wife looked like a vegetable and was too angry to speak for a moment. Ignoring her,
I turned to another woman in blue.
Lord Dutong keeps an outer room, and sleeps outside for the better part of every month. But your ladyship has never had a word of complaint, nor has she ever said a word of disapproval to the outside world. Such magnanimity is indeed a model for my generation.
Listen to me break all kinds of scandals.
The remaining women who had not been named bowed their heads and dared not make a sound. A few people
here, whose family has nothing to do, are usually to give each other face, see through not to say broken.
Now I say it in public, and naturally I don’t look good.
I did serve my husband in Lu Fu, but they forgot that my brother was an imperial censor, and I naturally knew some of the scandals of each family. When
I saw that the heat was enough, I stopped talking. It’s not good to
offend too many people.
When Zhiya saw that I had vented my anger, he stopped pursuing it.
“You’ve finally figured it out.” She touched my forehead.
I laughed, and this time I let my anger out, but I’m afraid my reputation is ruined.
These ladies did not dare to say it, but they must hold a grudge in their hearts, and they did not know how to arrange me behind my back.
But I don’t care anymore. Other people’s likes and dislikes have nothing to do with me. Just live your own life.
A month later, the Lu family held a big wedding banquet. Although the old man
Lu did not like Bai Wanqing, she was pregnant with the flesh and blood of the Lu family, and finally nodded.
Among them, Mrs. Lu contributed a lot.
I haven’t been out for three years, and Mrs. Lu is extremely unhappy with me.
Over the years, Mrs. Lu has been looking forward to her grandson. In the past, she always thought I was in poor health and could not bear children. Naturally, she refused to let go of a ready-made grandson. Moreover, she liked Bai Wanqing more than I did, and now she got what she wanted.
“Son, your father and mother are determined to find a good son-in-law for you, and you can forget about the Lu family.” When
my father saw me looking at the long street in the attic, he thought I was watching the procession of the Lu family and comforted me.
In fact, I am not looking at the wedding procession, but the location of the shop.
Father, I’ve already broken up with Lu. You don’t have to worry. I’m looking for a place to open a teahouse in the future!
My father looked surprised. “Have you really thought about it?” Although
this Dynasty is open to merchants, but scholars, farmers, industry and commerce, merchants are the last, I am a woman, or the daughter of an official, actually want to run a tea shop, in my father’s view is incredible.
I nodded. “Dad, I don’t want to get married again.”. This shop is for women like me. The world is prejudiced against women who leave. The teahouse is a place for them to stay. They can chat here, and they don’t have to pay attention to the eyes of others.
My father hesitated, but he agreed.
“Dad doesn’t want to stop you from doing business, but he wants you to put this thing aside until at least the baby is born.”
He glanced at my stomach. Now that I have more than five months, I have become pregnant, and my body is getting heavier day by day.
The last time I was kidnapped, I was frightened. If Li Runze hadn’t hanged me with medicine in time, I’m afraid one corpse and two lives. Abortion is no longer possible
now, and it is my destiny to be able to guarantee a safe birth.
I figured it out, too.
The child is innocent.
At the worst, I will raise this child by myself, and it has nothing to do with the Lu family.
I stroked my stomach and said, “Don’t worry, Dad. I’ll be at home these days. My second sister will help me with the site selection and decoration.”
The designs are all made by me. I have long wanted to run such a teahouse. In the past, there were many constraints in Lufu, but now I can let go of my hands and feet. On the opening day of
the teahouse, all the dignitaries in the city were invited by my father. Zhiya and I sat in a private room on the second floor and chatted red melon seeds. Naturally, there was a shopkeeper outside to arrange things for me.
“I didn’t expect to be able to go to your teahouse for tea before I left.”
Zhiya’s marriage is set in the winter months, and she still has half a year to prepare for marriage. Today she came here specially to support me.
“I didn’t expect that you wouldn’t want to look for a husband again, because you’ve made up your mind to be self-reliant.”
Zhiya patted me on the shoulder. “Princess Ben supports you!”
Then she started gossiping with me.
“The one in the Lu family was born yesterday!” She leaned close to me and looked at my round belly. She frowned and said, “Why is she earlier than you? Are they already in love?”
I put down the red melon seeds and counted that I had been pregnant for eight months, and the day of labor would be one month later.
Bai Wanqing returned to the city in July, when the birth was premature. The day
Lu Kui didn’t come back. To be with her.
I can’t help feeling sick.
“Don’t talk about them. Why don’t you talk about my tea here?” I fought back my discomfort and changed the subject.
“All the things you have here are picked out by Princess Ben. Is that not good?” Zhiya frowned and took the topic back.
“I’m telling you, that white bitch kid is weird!”
“I heard she was born with blond hair and blue eyes!” The
more Zhiya said, the more excited he became.
“How do you know all this?” There was no news outside about the birth of a child in the
Lu family, and I didn’t know until Li Taiyi came to feel the pulse in the morning.
But he didn’t say much.
“The Lu family is hiding it, but the princess wants to know, so naturally there is a way.” Zhiya winked at me.
“What will happen to the child in the end?”
Such hair color and eye color, afraid not to be treated as a monster.
Zhiya shook his head, and the Lu family kept it a secret. For several days
in a row, my father was happy in the next court.
It was said that Lu Kui and his father’s faces were clouded, and several court discussions in succession did not answer the questions. The emperor punished them to think about it for three days behind closed doors and forbade them to go to court.
My father was so happy that he walked with the wind and played with a big knife twice in the yard. I can vaguely guess the
reason.
Recently, there has been a lot of rumors in the capital that the Lu family has a freak grandson. Some people even speculated that the child was not Lu Kui’s, but was born of Bai Shi and barbarians.
“That child has blond hair and blue eyes. Could it be the Lu family?”.
“Lord Shao-ching and his first wife haven’t been married for three years. Maybe it’s just him!”
“I think this is called the present newspaper.” The
word has a nose and eyes. The
father and son of the Lu family had a headache for this, and they thought they were hiding it like an iron bucket.
In fact, there is no impermeable wall in the world. There was all kinds of gossip in
my teahouse every day, and it soon spread to everyone.
There is even a version that I deliberately spread.
Lu Kui, Bai Wanqing. There must be some price to
pay.
Is watching the play of others, the bottom of the people to report, the teahouse had an accident.
The teahouse is on fire for unknown reasons.
Listening to the description of the fire spread very fast, the red flames soon engulfed the beams, and in an instant, the whole building collapsed. When I
heard the news, I had a pain in my abdomen.
I gave birth early!
Fortunately, my father had already invited the imperial physician and the steady mother-in-law to wait in the mansion, and a group of people were busy delivering the baby for me, so I had to throw away the teahouse first. I stepped into the gate of death when I
gave birth to a child.
I am pregnant with a pair of twins.
I thought I was going to suffer a great crime, but who would have thought that I would be born smoothly. As
I looked at my brother and sister in swaddling clothes, I thought of the teahouse. I turned to my father and asked, “Dad, how is the teahouse? Are there any casualties?” You don’t have to worry about that
just after the birth. Your brother is out there. My father comforted me.
My brother took over, and he would go to investigate, and I was relieved.
At this moment, there was a noise outside.
“Lord Lu, you can’t go in!”
“I’ve come to see my own child. Why won’t you let me in?”
Lu Kui unexpectedly came.
He did not know where to find out the news of my birth, and when the baby was born, he came to the door.
“Let me in!”
Several servants could not stop him, so he broke into the inner courtyard directly.
It should be that just now I gave birth, and all my hands were concentrated in the inner courtyard, which led to the relaxation of the outer courtyard, so that he could take advantage of it.
My father heard Lu Kui’s voice and was about to go out, but someone stopped Lu Kui before him.
“Lord Lu, stay here. Miss Leng San has just given birth to a child, so she can’t see the guests.”
Li Runze, as an imperial physician, did his duty.
“I heard that the Empress Dowager was ill, and Li Taiyi was not on duty in the palace. Why did you come here?” Lu Kui’s Yin and Yang are in a strange mood. If
the Empress Dowager is ill, the Imperial Hospital will assign an Imperial Physician to treat her. Don’t bother Lord Lu. As for why XiaGuan is here, as a doctor, where there is a patient, there is naturally me.
Li Runze’s words made Lu Kui speechless.
Good, very good. You are your doctor, but please get out of my way to see my son! Otherwise, don’t blame me for being rude! Lu Kui became angry from embarrassment and immediately started to attack Li Runze.
“I’ll see who dares to do it in my cold house!” As soon as
my father went out, Lu Kui immediately lost his nerve, but he still didn’t give up. “My father-in-law,” he said, “my son-in-law came here today to see the children.”
“Who is your father-in-law?” My father interrupted him. Did Lord
Lu forget that your mother-in-law’s family name is Bai now. We’re cold, but we can’t afford to climb up.
Lu Kui was told that his face was blue and white.
“Uncle Leng.”
He gritted his teeth and adjusted his address. “My little nephew came here today, not to make trouble, but just to think about my son and my children. I hope Uncle Leng will accommodate me and let me see him.”
“Lord Lu, that’s wrong again.” There are only Leng’s children
here, not yours. The old man recently heard that Mrs. Lu gave birth to a son. What’s the matter? Did Lord Lu drink too much, go to the wrong house, and forget where his wife and children actually live?
My father said and winked at the servant.
Several servants went into battle together, but Lu Kui had no power to fight back and was carried out. Halfway through, he kept shouting, “You wait!”! After all, the children of the Lu family are surnamed Lu!
Heh.
I sneered in the room.
Who says their surname is Lu? My children are all surnamed Leng. As expected,
Lu Kui did not give up and turned around to report the matter to the emperor. Because of the face of the old minister Lu,
the emperor came forward to mediate and asked someone to invite my father to the palace.
My father said he was ill and wouldn’t go. In my heart
, I was afraid that the emperor would give the two children to Lu Kui, so I found two reliable guards and let the wet nurse take the children to a place that was not under the name of the cold family.
In this way, even if the emperor himself came to have a child, he could not find it.
But I missed Bai Wanqing.
This woman has not been idle after giving birth to a child, and has been staring at Lengfu.
“Father, is that Chuang Tzu safe?” I watched the carriage go away, but I was still worried.
Don’t worry, it’s your mother’s private property, and outsiders don’t know about it. I have ordered a group of men to go over and guard it. It will be all right.
Nevertheless, I always feel uneasy, but I can’t say what’s wrong.
The next day, as expected, someone from the palace came with an imperial edict to ask for a child.
Lu Kui followed.
“Son, hand over the child.”
“Lord Lu’s children are in Lufu. What are they doing here?”
Lu Kui was scolded by me, but because the emissary of the emperor was by his side, it was not easy for him to break out. He turned his face and said, “You and I are old friends. Even if we divorce, we are still in love.”. Now the son of heaven ordered the child to be divided into two families, the boy to the Lu family, the girl to the cold family. If the judge is fair, why should you make everyone look bad? The
imperial edict is really written one by one.
The Lu family should have invited the ancestor in the palace. The emperor’s adoptive mother, the imperial concubine, was born in the Lu family.
“Bah!” My father gave him a mouthful to his face.
“If anyone dares to take the child away, step over my old bones!”
Bold! How dare you resist the decree! The envoy who
announced the decree should get the benefit of Lu Kui, and Lu Kui said with a look in his eyes.
But my father cold-faced general prestige outside, he only shouted, did not dare to come forward.
Lu Kui wiped his face and winked at the attendants behind him. Seeing this,
my father immediately drew his sword, and the servants behind him came forward one after another.
The two sides are at daggers drawn. It is the sin of decapitation
to disobey orders! Can you afford to stay in the cold house? The envoy hid behind a crowd, jumped his feet, and continued to shout.
Even if you are an emperor, you still have to talk about etiquette and law. This upright son has already given birth to a son before anyone else. But my daughter was weak, and the doctor diagnosed that she could not bear any more than this child. My daughter was desperate to give birth to a child, but he didn’t take care of her. He was still fooling around with Bai Shi during her pregnancy. Now he thinks of the child. He took all the advantages of the Lu family. How could he be so reasonable! When
my father’s words came down, the faces of all the people on the opposite side were blue and white.
Lu Kui seemed to have thrown out his face and was about to rush in with his men.
My father was not willing to give in, and naturally he stopped him head-on.
In the Nick of time, suddenly, one of the guards we sent to protect the children came back.
Covered in blood. Before he
fell down, he said, “Those who have sinned deserve to die!”
My heart missed a beat: it’s broken.
The other party left a note saying it was for me. There are only three words
on it: a line of sky. When
I saw the note, I was shocked.
It’s Bai Wanqing!
A line of sky is a wonder we discovered when we were young.
The two rocks closely depend on each other, leaving only a gap for one person to pass through, which looks like a line of sky from a distance. The three of
us experienced life and death here. At that time, Bai Wanqing and I slipped at the same time and were about to fall off the cliff.
Lu Kui only pulled Bai Wanqing.
And I almost died.
Fortunately, the place where I fell was a pool, and I saved my life, but since then I have been weak and sick.
Later, Lu explained to me that because Bai Wanqing was close to him at that time, he pulled her.
I didn’t realize until later.
He’s lying.
He never tried to save me. He didn’t even look at me when
I fell.
Bai Wanqing chose this place to ask me to meet, which is to kill the heart.
“He let the young lady go alone, or he would kill the young lady and the young master.”
The bodyguard whispered in my father’s ear and fainted.
“Upright!”
I didn’t think they were playing a diversionary trick.
My father drew out a sword and put it on Lu’s neck.
“Oh, I have something to say.” When the king’s father-in-law saw that he was about to be killed, he quickly intervened.
“Why did uncle say that?”
Lu Kui’s face was baffled, and it seemed that he did not know.
“Who is your uncle?”
The sword touched Lu’s neck, almost bleeding.
“Say, where did you take the child?”
Lu doesn’t know where he is.
“My little nephew doesn’t understand what you mean. I’ve come to pick up the children today. Why do you ask me to get up?”
“On one side you ask us for help, and on the other side you steal the children!”
What! Has the child been robbed?
I saw that Lu Kui was even more shocked than my father. He didn’t look like he was faking it.
“Dad, let them go!”
I stopped my father’s sword. It’s important to save the child now. There’s no need to waste time confronting him here. What else did
my father want to say? I shook my head.
I believe that Lu Kui and Bai Wanqing are not the same, he does not have such a brain.
“You heard, Lord Lu. The child is not in your house. It’s no use holding the imperial edict. Please go back!”
My father waved his hand, and a group of bodyguards appeared and drove Lu Kui and the emperor’s envoys out directly. Have
the gate closed.
Lu Kui was still shouting through the gate, “Uncle, please tell me what kind of thief took the child.” He was
answered by silence.
I went to Bai Wanqing’s appointment.
Even if I know it’s a trap, I have to go.
In order to avoid the front door, I quietly set out from the back door.
Spent a wick of incense, rushed to a line of sky. I saw Bai Wanqing and a man in black
there.
The swaddled child was tied to the tree with a rope as thick as his wrist. One end of the
rope was in the hand of the man in black.
At the other end, the abyss.
Me: “What’s wrong with the baby?”
The child did not cry or make any noise. “I just took some medicine and fell asleep,”
said Pai.
“I didn’t expect you to come alone.” Only then did
I see her dress clearly. She wrapped her whole body tightly, showing only half of her face. Her voice was hoarse, and she did not look like herself.
Seeing that I had been looking at her, she gave me a fierce look.
“What are you looking at? If you want to save the child, jump down from here.”
She stretched out her hand and pointed to the cliff where we fell.
What’s the matter? Dare not?
Seeing my hesitation, she turned her head and motioned to the man in black to loosen the rope.
“Don’t!”
I hasten to stop her.
Good! As long as you let the child go, I’ll jump! Step by step,
I gradually approached the edge of the cliff.
Every step closer, the light in Bai Wanqing’s eyes was bright.
She wanted me to die so much.
But the truth didn’t work out the way she wanted. My
eyes flashed and I was about to give instructions.
But someone appeared and interrupted my plan.
“Why don’t you put the baby down, you crazy bitch!”
It’s Lu Qi.
I saw him arrive with a large group of people and go straight to Bai Wanqing.
Shit! I have a hunch that he is going to do something bad.
In fact, there is a remote path behind this line of sky, which I found when I revisited the old place. Now I am just lying in ambush, ready to take advantage of Bai Wanqing’s unpreparedness and snatch the child.
But as soon as Lu Kui came, the plan was completely disrupted.
Sure enough, Pai Wan-ching was furious. “You bitch!”! You actually told him!
“I didn’t!”
But now she won’t believe anything I say.
Bai Wanqing waved angrily, and the rope in the hand of the man in black loosened a lot in an instant.
I shouted at Pai Wan-ching, “Don’t mess around!” “Stop!” He shouted
at Lu Kui.
Probably never seen me speak so harshly to him, Lu Kui suddenly froze in place.
But he immediately reacted and retorted, “What are you waiting for?”! Kill this crazy woman and save the child!
He actually said.. Kill Bai Wanqing. He
wanted to kill the white moonlight that he had not forgotten for years, and he wanted to marry a wife who even knelt down in the ancestral temple.
“Lu, you..”
Unexpectedly, he was so cold.
Even his feelings with Bai Wanqing for many years can be ignored.
“Ha ha ha ha..” Bai Wanqing laughed to tears.
His surname is Lu! You are doomed to have no children! I’m going to make your Lu family lose their children and grandchildren! With that, she asked the man in black to let go of the rope. The
two children fell into the abyss.
“No!”
I rushed to grab the rope, but I couldn’t reach it. I rushed to the edge of the cliff unconsciously, and almost went with the child.
“Watch out!” I don’t know when
Li Runze appeared, but he pulled me.
“It’s a smoke screen.” He whispered in my ear. What does he mean by
my body?
Over there, the people brought by Lu Kui and the guards of Bai Wanqing had already fought together.
Li Runze pulled me aside and motioned me to stand on the sidelines.
Soon, the two sides decided the winner. Although the man in black beside
Bai Wanqing was highly skilled in martial arts, he was no match for the people of Lu Kui. He was hacked to death by a random knife, but he had to protect Bai Wanqing before he died. As soon as the man in
black died, the next second, Lu Kui’s knife was on Bai Wanqing’s neck.
You crazy woman! Give me back my child!
Bai Wanqing held the man in black who died tragically in her arms and burst into tears.
Suddenly he looked up and stared at Lu Kui.
“Kill me!”
Then he pulled off the tightly wrapped scarf on his body. A large red festering abscess was exposed on
his neck.
Lu Kui was frightened to take two steps back. With a sarcastic look in her eyes,
Bai Wanqing only glanced at him and then left him alone.
She pulled off the scarf of the man in black, and it was blonde. I didn’t notice his blue eyes just now. Isn’t
she and Lu’s child?
I covered my mouth and thought of the rumor.
Li Runze was uneventful and did not seem to be shocked by the real body of the man in black.
Lu was so mad that the knife on Bai Wanqing’s neck was lifted several times, but it didn’t fall down. I can’t do it
after all.
At this time, Bai Wanqing opened his mouth.
“Leng Tzu, do you know why I keep robbing you?”
Suddenly I was called, and I couldn’t react.
But she went on talking to herself.
Because you’ve been doted on since you were a child, and unlike me, you have to fight for everything on your own. As soon as you were born, your parents chose a husband for you. And my father will only use me as a bargaining chip! He promised me to that ugly monster for the sake of his own errand!
So that’s what she thought.
But the marriage she envied was the one I humbly begged for.
“Three years ago, I was married off to the border. Do you know what kind of life I live every day?”.
That man hits me at every turn! Hit me when I’m angry outside, hit me when I’m drunk, even. Even when they have sex with each other, they do not spare me.
With these words, Bai Wanqing lifted her skirt, and the snow-white skin on her chest was covered with deep and shallow scars, as well as a large red spot. The men
present first turned their heads when she untied her skirt, and then couldn’t help looking at it. I gasped when I
saw it.
I didn’t expect that the general she married was such a man with a human face and a beast’s heart.
I couldn’t bear to look and turned my head slightly.
“Only Tov is sincere to me..” Bai Wanqing hugged the blonde man in her arms and wept.
It turned out that the man was a boy she had saved in the frontier. They got along with each other day and night and had feelings for each other. They killed the general and disguised it as his accidental death.
Originally, they were going to elope, but Mao’s relatives suddenly came, and he left without saying goodbye.
Bai Wanqing had no relatives in the border town and did not want to go back to her mother’s home to suffer, so she returned to the capital. At this time, she did not know that she already had Mao Zi’s flesh and blood in her stomach.
She came back to find that she was pregnant, and the time to calculate was after she was about to die. If the husband is pregnant after death, their scandal will be exposed.
So she played the idea of Lu Kui, hoping that he would be the sucker.
On her way back to Beijing, she wrote a letter to Lu Kui, expressing her feelings tactfully, telling her loneliness and suffering outside these years, and attracting Lu Kui to take the bait.
Unexpectedly, Lu Kui could not wait to pick her up in Beijing, so she made him drunk and pretended that they had a husband and wife.
After that, every time she had sex with Lu, she took medicine to make him dizzy, and Lu did not find these scars on her body. It was not
until the baby was born that the stuffing was leaked.
You! You! You bitch!
Lu Qi was red-eyed. The knife in
his hand was cut off without mercy.
“Ding,”
Li Runze kicked and blocked his knife with a stone.
“If you kill my child, I will not let your child live!”
I didn’t expect the Lu family to kill her child.
It turned out that after Mao Zi finished dealing with the family affairs, their children had been drowned alive by the Lu family.
She picked up the man on the ground shakily, as if she wanted to leave.
Lu Kui, I’m not afraid to tell you the truth. I’m sick. The man was looking for flowers and willows, and his body was already broken. It was only recently that I found out that I had the same disease.
Bai Wanqing laughed terribly and jumped into the cliff with Mao Zi. Everyone is
still shocked by what she said.
“It’s all right.”
Li Runze gently protected my head and did not let me look at the direction of the cliff.
My heart almost jumped out of my chest because of the shock.
Bai Wanqing died for love. Not long after,
Lu Kui was diagnosed with venereal disease. He was in a trance every day, his hair was gone, his whole body was red, swollen and festering, and he was in great pain.
And my child did not die at the foot of that cliff.
Instead, Bai Wanqing had already switched the bag and hid it in a farmer’s home.
Li Runze followed them all the way when they robbed the child.
Bai Wanqing just wanted to blackmail me with the child and watch me die.
I didn’t expect to die for love in the end.
“Thank you, Dr. Li.” I am grateful for the recovery of the lost
child.
“Is that how you thank me?”
Li Runze stood with his back, unable to see his expression.
“Another day, let my father pick out some calligraphy and paintings given by the emperor and send them to your house. Anyway, my father doesn’t know how to appreciate them.” I know
he likes it.
He shook his head and said in a low voice.
“Zi Kui..” You know what I want.
I’ll have a meal. Images of the
past come to mind. The
words are not coherent. You.. Meaning, son. I don’t understand.
“I’m not going to impose. Tell me when you’ve thought it over.” Then
he went out of the yard.
In April, peach blossoms are in full bloom in the mountain temple.
My mother took me out to pray.
From a distance, he saw a childe standing under a tree. When the
wind blew, peach blossoms fell all over his body.
At a glance, it is like a lifetime. The
sound of Sanskrit is curling.
He said, “Girl, did you make a wish today?”
I laughed and said, “If you say it, it won’t work.”
This is Hongluo Temple.
It is the most spiritual place to seek marriage.
