Meng Xuan looked at the girl’s calm face silently and then replied with a smile, “If the opponent is Lord Ning, everyone will be afraid of him. However, I guess that some people are also willing to help, if the person who needs help is you.”
“I have stated my feeling about you clearly. Aren’t you angry with me? Do you still want to help me against Lord Ning?” He Danggui asked smoothly.
Meng Xuan lifted Meng Ying slightly in his hands. He looked down and recalled, “My brother and I came to Luo’s Mansion to visit you a few days ago. We asked to stay here after knowing you were ill, and then I moved to see you for the first time. I saw Miss Liao chatting with your maid in the yard, so I avoided them and went straight to the back hall. I approached your bedroom from the window in the west as usual. You know the window is facing your bed, so I have already seen it.”
“I was sleeping because of violent sickness, when Qing’er arrived. After waking up,
Chan Yi covered her mouth and exclaimed, “Does Childe Feng also want to marry my Miss? No way. She seems to hate others mentioning Childe Feng in front of her. And every time people mentioned him, she frowned.”Shi Liu shook her head and said, “I don’t know exactly, but it seems that Childe Feng doesn’t propose marriage for him, but acts as a matchmaker for one of his friends. The invitation says, ‘I’d like to be a matchmaker for a unique marriage.’ I don’t know who his friend is. Before the marriage is consented, he sends so much bride-price and gives away a lot of copper cash to the footboys that served him, and they all held a basket of it. Everyone said that Third Miss is lucky, and she is chosen by a plutocrat!”Chan Yi did not look happy, and said anxiously, “Miss is an independent person. She certainly doesn’t want Madam Luo to choose a family for her without her consent. Sister Shi Liu, you stay here and warm yourself first. I’ll see if Miss is awak
When He Danggui sent Huai Hua to Lu’s Mansion, she only considered her current problems, but ignored Zhenzhu’s situation. Moreover, He Danggui thought that she and Huai Hua were just master and maid. But Zhenzhu and Huai Hua used to have the same master, so their relationship was closer. Naturally, they would have less misunderstanding and more tolerance.During the past few days of meditation, He Danggui recalled that in the past 3 months, every time she could see the bright and radiant face of Huai Hua. He Danggui seemed to suddenly understand something. Besides Master Tai Shan, Zhenzhu’s ex-husband, Madam Ji and her daughter, who troubled Zhenzhu included Huai Hua. It was too bad. Maybe her negligence made trouble for Zhenzhu!When He Danggui drank sweet soup, she wondered whether she missed any important part in these days because she did not come out. After 2 bowls of hot sweet dumplings, her pale face had a little blood color. But Chan Yi still frowne
The string in He Danggui’s mind snapped. The terms of “My Lord” and “wife” reverberated in her ears repeatedly. She realized that Zhu Quan must be in Qi Lu Yard. Although she couldn’t connect “Zhu Quan” and “Luo Baiqian’s residence”, she sealed her 13 channels with silver needles immediately to minimize her pulse, breath and vital signs.She really wanted to eavesdrop on the conversation of the people inside, but she was afraid of making any noise. In fact, with her current level of internal force, her breath had grown to a completely silent level, so she could sneak in the dark to eavesdrop on the conversation of various seniors without being found. However, if this one was Zhu Quan, she should be too careful.After sealing the channels, she carefully floated into a bush without touching the ground while the leaves made a lot of rustle in a gust of wind. In the past, she couldn’t even do such a half degree of difficult movements, but today she almost perfe
He Danggui was full of confusion. She remembered that Qi Xuanyu did get along well with Senior Lord Luo Maitong and live in Luo’s Mansion for some time. But at that time, she had not returned to Luo’s Mansion, and she might have just been reborn or not. However, Qi Xuanyu said that he had dealt with her. How could it be?She only had a look at the Royal Prophet, Qing Jing, and Imperial Astronomer of Qintianjian Celestial Prefecture, Qi Xuanyu, from a distance when all the officials worshiped heaven in her previous life. Now she had never seen Qi Xuanyu before. Did he deceive Zhu Quan?It was so weird. Qi Xuanyu and Zhu Quan discussed about her at first. Now why did they talk about the stars and the history? What did the stars and Daji (the Queen of Emperor Zhou of the Shang Dynasty) have to do with her?He Danggui sat cross-legged on the ground while the leaves and grass were shaking with a wind. Since she was squatting for a long time, her cal
“For another world?” Zhu Quan and Qi Chuan did not understand, “What is that?” He Danggui was shocked. Qi Xuanyu was a pretty smart mystical conman. She couldn’t believe that he divulged her biggest secret. What should she do? Would they burn her with a fire, just like the medieval witch that Qing’er said?Qi Xuanyu explained, “It was because the hexagram-records in the 64 hexagrams of the I Ching were very vague. My Lord, since you used to study the Book of Changes, you know that there are many possible explanations for those concise classical Chinese. So, even I can’t give an exact answer. However, I am absolutely sure that the blue thorn star is not a natural star, and it should be condensed by a Taoist priest. Since he could use the ‘Forbidden magic of binding the soul for 3 lives’, he must have supernatural power.”Qi Chuan’s voice was full of confusion, “Who can summon the star? How can there be such a person in the world? Brother, are you talking abo
Qi Xuanyu smiled and said, “I also laughed after hearing that. I only heard that if someone’s house is not peaceful, they would invite the monk to subdue the evil. I have never heard anyone who thinks his or her family is evil. However, when I thought of Miss He’s situation in Luo’s Mansion, I could also imagine that she was not welcome in her relatives. So, I became a good person and said a few good words for her. I said that ‘Hard life and harm of parents’ was referred to children would let their parents die unintentionally. Since her mother was in good health, she was definitely not an ominous person to harm her parents. I also said that her future husband was a great man, and they were good matched couple.”Qi Chuan praised, “Great. I will become a great man and then ride a colorful dragon to marry her!”Zhu Quan said with more certainty, “My eight characters of a horoscope accord with hers. She and I are destined to be husband and wife for 3 lifetimes.
He Danggui was transfixed immediately, and she even lost the desire to escape at the very thought of Zhu Quan’s Dun Shu (a kind of Kungfu that is unique and popular in Nihon, specializing on escaping or attacking others with the fully use of the surroundings materials) originated in Nihon and Ning Yuan’s arts of lightness which was as swift as a flash of lightning. The depressing thought that she was doomed to die whether she struggled or not came to her mind. She even closed her eyes, thinking that Zhu Quan must be the catastrophe in her life, by whom she was destined to be killed for 2 consecutive lives.She didn’t run, waiting for the death.She closed her eyes and laid her head down on her knees. Quietly, she was waiting for the death.In a while, she was encircled by warmth. She heard the wind howling, smelled the fragrant and mild aroma of green tea and felt the warm and soft cloth touching her cheek under the veil. Before she opened her
In most of the time in the previous life, He Danggui listened to Bai Yangbai’s words as jokes. He said that the prescription for preserving youthful looks was top-secret and could only be passed on to his wife and daughter. And if she wanted to get it, she had to have “the same surname” as his.She heard this, but she didn’t understand the meaning at all. She just frowned with embarrassment. It was not difficult to take him as an adoptive father, but her name was recorded in the genealogy of Luo’s Family. So, changing her name was not easy. And Bai Danggui sounded very strange, right?Bai Yangbai obliquely said that there was no need to change the name on the genealogy, and she could just go to the second house on the left hand of the official household registration department and then add the character “Bai” before her original name. Bai He Danggui was homophonic to lily and angelica, meaning life-long happiness and perfect harmony. It was a nice name!
Dong's where to stand others like this out of words to teach, coupled with her to He Danggui has always been cynical and hateful, over the years everywhere to see the wrong, and now these emotions all of a sudden flared up.She laughed coldly, "Humph! Third girl, you don't have to be like this with me, I can't compare to you in this life, but our old Luo family still has a promising offspring, a Chai Yutu, into the Prince's residence as a beauty; Qiong Sister and Peony Sister, into the palace to serve the Emperor! The day they gain favor, we'll immediately become the royal relatives with hardened waists! Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river, you don't want to tear down the bridge too soon!"He Danggui commanded the grannies to bring down both Luo Baiqian and Yan Sister, and she had no intention of staying any longer, biting each other with mad dogs, so what had she become herself.Dong was not willing to let people go, crossed her arms and
Dong raised her hand and waved it heavily on Luo Baiying's face, arrogantly sneering, "Big girl, don't say all these salty words, the feelings of us poor women who married bastard men, girls like you who have never seen anything will never understand in their lives. I only hate myself for being blind back then, choosing by the thousands and finally choosing a useless Luo Baiqian, and now I'm being dragged down by you!"Luo Baihe glanced at the unconscious old lady, hidden anger to teach Dong, "Sister-in-law said what even the words, as the saying goes, flowers do not have a hundred days of red, no one's family has not been rich for a hundred years of good things, out of bad things, we think about it. You don't like anyone, and beating up one person after another won't help."The government office wanted to check the accounts of the Luodong Mansion, to see if they had drawn down money during the war to subsidize the rebels, so all the daughters-in-law in charge, along wit
Park Yang Bai expected a little good, when he pretended Li Xianxi around the screen, appeared in the crowd's field of vision, the outside of an exclamation of surprise intertwined, almost toppled the roof. When the screen was removed, no one had noticed that the ugly girl who had previously walked into the screen to play for the "Wonderful Medical Fairy" had disappeared.Li Xianxi has been dead for ten days, hard as a rock, suddenly recovered soft and charming, really shocked everyone present. Princess House's four housekeepers immediately left two, looks like it is to report to go."Pop!"Mao Daoxing glares and shoots the shocking wood, shouting and asking, "Qingning County Lord, how did you save Xianqiao County Lord, how was the truth on that day, still don't tell from the speed! Just now you also said that the only person who died was Niu Wenlan, and there were two other maids from the royal family, but what is the reason for this?"A dead royal maid? How
Early in the morning four days later, He Danggui and Meng Xuan returned to the capital and went directly to Yingtian Mansion to watch the results of the Yan Wangfu murder case. I heard that the trial of the Luo Mansion's treason case also started today, with one trial after another.On that night in Yan Wang Fu, Zhu Duran and Pao Yangbai pretended to be fake He Danggui, and both of them were imprisoned in the Da Lisi. Meng Xuan makes arrangements through his connections to ensure that Bo Yang Bai has the benefits of eating, drinking, whoring, and gambling in prison, but due to his disguise, he is sadly unsuccessful in the end.As soon as Meng Xuan showed up in the capital, the subordinate who had been secretly protecting the safety of Park Yangbai came to report that in the past few days, he had driven away a total of five waves of assassins who wanted to assassinate Park Yangbai.Just this morning, through the heavy inspection of the meal to the cell, obviously ha
Her mind was feverish, and she remembered in a trance that at some point, Meng Xuan had said to her in the bamboo forest of Cheng Xu, "I'm not Duan Xiaolou, and I'm not going to do the stupid things he did, girl, there's only one Duan Xiaolou in the world, and since there's no room for redemption between you and him anymore, you should always look away in the future."It turned out that what Meng Xuan said was true, and what Gao Jie said was also true, neither of them had lied to her. In this world, there really was only one fool like Duan Xiaolou.This fool had somehow fallen in love with a little demoness like her and hadn't changed his mind until now. Instead, she had married Meng Xuan as her wife.Is there anyone who can tell her how to return a love that is so heavy that she can't breathe, how to clear the past years and let everything return to zero? Her smart brain is no longer smart enough to face Duan Xiaolou directly."Now, you know everything." The
He Danggui woke up with a start, close at hand was Duan Xiaolou's handsome face, a pair of dark eyes, as if he had been staring at her for more than ten hours. She was dizzy, as if she had also slept for more than ten hours.She sat up with a jolt, checking to find that her clothing was intact, only a layer of outer clothing had been removed, and other than that there was nothing wrong.Her nervous expression pierced Duan Xiaolou's eyes, and he laughed silently as he gently asked, "What did you think I would do? Could it be that in your mind, I don't even have this much credibility anymore?" The voice was filled with bitterness.Ignoring Duan Xiaolou, she jumped out of bed and walked around the room, noticing that the bedroom had a single furnishing with a dark tone, much like someone's style. Looking back at the wall, there were five colorful faces hanging, and the one in the very middle had a yellow face, eh? That one is not ...He Danggui exclaimed out in
The testimony of her own sister! Exposing her lies!Everyone gazed at Zhu Duran, her pretty face reddened for a while, white for a while, making it even more suspicious. At this time, the conversation between the two Peng Shih Peng Jian brothers drew the attention of many people."Brother, didn't you also go to the east wing after you finished talking with third sister in the garden?" Peng Jian spoke without thinking and actually drew fire on his own brother.Peng Shi frowned for a moment before replying, "I received a post that said 'important matters to discuss, please be sure to make a trip over here, chee chee chee', and it was addressed to Niu Wenlan. I considered it over and over again, so I went on this trip." After he finished his words, the fake He Danggui, the real Park Yangbai's face was immediately a little agitated, because he also received a similar post before he went to Niu Wenlan's room.Peng Jian said with a start, "Could the murderer be you
"Who?" He Angelica asked a little nervously through the door."You haven't gone over yet?" It was Gao Jie's voice, "I have a question for you.""Go ahead." He Danggui held his breath."That mask, do you still have it?" Gao Jie asked without a clue through a door.He Danggui revealed a confused expression, and Meng Xuan asked for her, "What mask.""Rabbit Town, your gift to me."Gao Jie's style was always simple and concise, but all of a sudden, Meng Xuan was greatly offended. Meng Xuan grabbed He Danggui's pink cheeks with her hand and complained, ''You sent him a gift? Why don't you send me? I want the mask too."He Danggui pushed away this questionable child, Meng Xuan, and pondered for a while before she had an impression of Gao Jie's words. At that time in Rabbit Town, she might seem to have probably given Gao Jie four face masks, the extremely simple kind of hand-painted ceramic paper face masks.In fact, it is not really a gift,
The crowd turned their heads in unison and saw behind a clump of longleaf orchids a man with half his face left in the shadows."Meng Xuan?" He Danggui was taken aback and rushed forward, pulling him aside as he quietly asked, "Why did you run here? Does your father know about your return to the capital?"The visitor was dressed in plain robes, very conspicuous in the dark night, yet no one realized that he was also in the garden until the moment he appeared. He had sword brows and starry eyes, handsome and incomparable, and was none other than Meng Xuan, who should have been huffing and puffing inside the secret room.When He Danggui thought that the scene of Duan Xiaolou hugging her just now had also fallen into Meng Xuan's eyes, she couldn't help but feel a sense of emptiness, and also remembered that Meng Xuan had returned to the capital specifically to see her, and that if the iron-faced Marquis of Bao Ding found out that he'd gone AWOL, she didn't know how he
