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!
He Danggui wanted to say “Lord Ning Zhu Quan”, but she held it back. She asked haltingly after some hesitation, “Old immortal, will my husband know that you summon him to my dream? Will he have any impression afterwards?”The old immortal cackled and said, “You are such an inexperienced girl that you have so many questions which even stump me. Well, let me see... Everything you see and hear is the same as that in his dream, so it is fair to say that you will have transient joy with him.”He Danggui immediately shook her head and waved her hands. She refused, “If so, don’t summon him. I am not ready yet, old immortal. Please leave me alone for a while.” Then she moved with great difficulty, trying to find a piece of clothing to cover her body. She thought to herself, “When I was in Luo’s Family, Fourth Sister always sprinkled itching powder on me. Although that kind of strange itch made me feel 100 times worse than the philter, I got it through. As long as I
