In the previous life, He Danggui used to practice some martial arts. By that time, she had entered Lord Ning’s Mansion and gained the favor of Zhu Quan (Lord Ning), then she learned some martial arts from Zhu Quan’s followers. In order to help Zhu Quan better manage the affairs of “Wuying Tower”, she began with the most basic steps called Mabu (a basic standing position of martial arts in China) at 19, a very “old” age to practice kongfu.
Since the Masters were all the subordinates of Zhu Quan and He Danggui was Zhu Quan’s concubine, it was inappropriate for them to teach her many martial arts which required to be taught intimately. Therefore, they only told her to hold a pile of books to study by herself. If she couldn’t do it, it would prove that she was not good enough to practice martial arts.
She studied dazzled like this for several years. Fortunately, the five Masters who taught her the longest were all first-rate seniors, and they taught her a wide
Zhen Jing didn’t take it seriously. She only thought that He Danggui was joking with her. But she suddenly thought of a drama happened in the Taoist Temple this morning. She didn’t care about what she was eating, but immediately began to tell it to He Danggui vividly.In the morning, on her way to fetch water, she passed the main hall and saw other nuns around the gate happily. So, Zhen Jing stood on tiptoe to see what happened. It turned out that Huai Dong and Huai Xin were quarreling in front of Tai Shan, much fiercer than last night.—Last night, Tai Shan went back to her room and thought for a while. As long as the case of stealing lock didn’t spread out and affect the reputation of the Taoist Temple, it would be a trivial matter. But now the fire had affected the imperial guards. Therefore, no matter how they defined the fire case, she must find out a scapegoat for the imperial guards, so that the Taoist Temple would not be implicated. Tai Shan chose H
“Master Zhen Zhu, when will the Third Miss come out? It’s already been an hour since Ding Rong’s wife and I informed you. And our sedan costs 1 string of 1,000 qian every 2 hours. Could you…” Gao Dashan’s wife pouted her chin towards Ding Rong’s wife who was not far away, and told Zhen Zhu in a very low voice, “She’s the eyes and ears of Second Mistress Luo, and she would tell her everything she knew.”Under her guidance, Zhen Zhu saw a woman about 50 years old, thin and white in decent clothes.Ding Rong’s wife looked at the gate of Shui Shang Temple with full attention. Seeing someone coming out, she asked, “Has Miss He prepared yet? When can we set out? You know I’m a busy person.”Zhen Zhu turned around to see Gao Dashan’s wife, “Biddy Gao, forgive me. That day you left in such a hurry and I was clumsy to retell Miss He’s original words. It’s all my faults! Miss He said she planned to stay here until the 17th this month. However, today is t
“Whooshing——” “Whooshing——”He Danggui’s skirt was swayed left and right by their palm energies. It was so cold that she shivered, lost her balance and fell on the ground. That’s when she saw the strange scene from her split vision that the big fire was suddenly put out.Two big hands helped her up. The left one was Duan Xiaolou’s and the right one was… Gao Jue’s. He Danggui escaped from death, but what she was thinking at this moment was—no wonder Duan Xiaolou said yesterday that they all had the ability to extinguish the fire. It turned out that their palm energies involved strong cold air. There were two schools in the world known as “Cold Palm”. Were they from Wujianmen School of De’an or Hongmen School of Dali?“Are you okay, girl? Where did you get hurt?” Duan Xiaolou asked anxiously, shaking her back and forth.“What?” He Danggui regained her consciousness and smiled apologetically at the handsome face close to her, “Sorry t
Duan Xiaolou got her mind keenly, and there was a trace of bitterness in his voice, “What, do we have to keep our distance so clearly?”He Danggui still clutched Duan Xiaolou’s sleeve and exhorted him, “As the old saying goes, it is better to offend a gentleman than a villain. Tai Shan is a complete villain. You kill her, or you never offend her. Otherwise, you will make her a hidden trouble for you in the future.” He Danggui had learned this lesson in her previous life. She was so vulnerable that she wanted to hang herself after Tai Shan blackmailed her for many times.31th year of Hongwu Period, Tai Shan knew that He Danggui had married into Lord Ning’s Mansion as a concubine, so she wrote a letter to meet He Danggui secretly. She held He Danggui’s old story of being a slave in the Taoist Temple as a leverage, threatening that if He Danggui refused to pay her, she would tell Lord Ning that He Danggui had stolen, misbehaved and hurt people in the Taoist Te
“What are you talking about?” Duan Xiaolou was shocked at her words. He got extremely angry but smiled, “What do you mean your chest got a hole? Who did this? I’ll punch out that guy! And what do you mean you are jealous of me as soon as you see me? As long as you accept me, I and all I have are yours. It’s totally unnecessary for your jealousy. Also, what do you mean I love you because I got briefly blind? Alas, your words are super cute. Haw-haw!” His embarrassing laughter sounded in the room, even made a piece of wall finish peel off.He Danggui wanted to explain more but she couldn’t. People in this world couldn’t understand her words. She said in her heart, “I’m so sorry, Duan Xiaolou. You are not my Mr. Right. Of course you’re a good person, but we meet at the wrong time. If I met you in my previous life, I might be grateful to fate, yet I would be quite different from now.” Staring at her little fair face with a desolate look, Duan Xiaolou felt a tw
He Danggui awoke at daybreak.Before she fell asleep last night, she picked out some Zhiming Sticking Plaster with a new chopstick. Then she took them in a bowl of warm water and patted her acupoint in a certain order, channeling the heat from the pill into her limbs. The pesticide effect of Zhiming Sticking Plaster was quite good. When she woke up, she felt her breath grew longer, her pulse grew stronger and her cold hands and feet were warm, too.Since there was only a useless little stove in the room, He Danggui and Zhen Jing were covered with one quilt in these days. But Zhen Jing didn’t sleep quietly and always had the tendency to kick the quilt and people, which made He Danggui suffer a lot. At this moment, Zhen Jing was asleep. He Danggui got out of bed silently, pulling the quilt for Zhen Jing. Zhen Jing whispered and kicked the quilt again, so He Danggui covered for her again reluctantly.After a simple wash, He Danggui coiled up a sma
He Danggui dreamed of her mother. Her mother wore a common silk coat embroidered with flowers, wearing her hair in a Zhuiyue haircut. Mom talked her with a sad face, “Yi, I owe you so much and I am ashamed to see you... My own misfortune has brought the same trouble to you. I really owe you so much...”When she woke up, her pillow was wet. And it was still dark outside.He Danggui turned over and felt cold, then she found that Zhen Jing kicked the quilt out of the bed. She slept against the wall, and Zhen Jing on the outside. Since she wanted to get the quilt back without waking Zhen Jing, she knelt on the bed with her ear next to Zhen Jing’s stomach. After three times of trying, it was still beyond her reach. After she found it didn’t work, she gave up the method and jumped out of bed to pick up the quilt.He Danggui was surprised that she could jump over about a meter with a little effort. Plus the height of the bed...“Bang!” He
People’s breathing? He Danggui looked up doubtfully and saw a man sleeping on the tree. Who else could it be expect for Gao Jue?He Danggui suddenly realized why she could meet Gao Jue when she practiced Five Mimic-animal Boxing yesterday morning, and why she could also meet him when she went out to run at dawn today. This was because he had been sleeping in the tree outside the East Wing-room! Peeping? He was such a rude man! He Danggui picked up a scree from the ground and threw it up, hitting Gao Jue’s nose as she expected. His face was now saying that “I want to kill you”. Looking at that expression, He Danggui waved to him and said with a smile, “Master Gao, let’s go.” The three of them went to the meditation room of the northern yard. He Danggui took out the set of keys which Tai Xi had given her and tried to open the door of the meditation room. But Gao Jue came up with an unhappy face for his lacking of sleep, reached out and pulled the brass lock,
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
