Du Yao woke up slowly. Before he could say anything, a fair hand covered his mouth. Tears kept running down He Danggui's face as if she had immersed herself in endless sorrow. Seeing this, Du Yao became soberer and widened his eyes in astonishment. What's wrong? What happened? She didn't cry like this even though he abducted her, frightened her, molested her, and hit her on her shoulder before. Did she...?
His hollow eyes regained some brightness. Was she feeling sorry for his passing out? Did she fall in love with him?
"Tok, tok, tok." Someone was knocking at the door lightly.
He Danggui stopped crying immediately and straightened her back tight. Without moving a bit, she listened carefully to what was going on outside. Based on what she had noticed before, she knew among the three men outside, Song Fei that was "crazy about sex" had gone with bare feet for a while, and that Nihon man with a blue robe and purple face also flew away from
"Stone Camouflage" was one of the few matrices that He Danggui learned from Bai Yangbai in her previous life, but it was also the most dangerous one. It needed to be triggered with 125 grams of blood and then, it would have destructive power, but its creator Bai Yangbai didn't like killing, so there was another simple version of it. That version would cause no death, but it had a defect. Once it's closed, people outside couldn't get in and vice versa.What's more, the alternating coldness and hotness must be suffering for those in the dungeon. She hoped they could be patient and don't cause any trouble, because the sound in the dungeon was possible to be heard outside. The diagram of this tactical matrix looked generally like that of Tai Chi in which Yin and Yang were alternating. At the alternating moment, the sound inside could be heard outside.The most torturous thing was that those in the dungeon would feel extremely cold in Yin as if they were
Bed partners? Illicit lovers? These words were even colder and more desperate than the icy rain. Her mother gave up practicing in the Taoist temple and planning for her future. Instead of divorcing He Fu and finding another good man or just living with her daughter, she chose to be together with a man that wouldn't marry her?He Danggui also took a deep breath. Looking up to let the icy rain hit her face, she regained her nerve and said to Nie Chun, "I got it. Please tell me your address. I want to see my mother."Nie Chun replied while shaking his head, "She's not ready to see you yet. You should wait. And it'll be no good for her reputation if others know she's living with me. Just don't tell the people of Luo's Family about it, or your mother may always feel ashamed in the future. You're her daughter so you should consider her. It's up to you." Finishing his words, he turned around and left. This time, he did leave. He just disappeared from where
As he spoke, the man showed up at the back of the horse. He dressed as Chang Nuo did by covering well his face with a black cloth and his head with a big hat of fox fur. Only his bright slanted eyes could be seen. Since He Danggui had recognized Qi Xuanyu's voice, she recognized his eyes immediately as well.She was curious. Chang Nuo and Qi Xuanyu dressed the same. It could be seen that they were hiding identities and about to do bad things. Were they heading to the inn to kill those imperial guards? They were on Lord Ning's side. They just fought against the imperial guards when they had to and had never provoked those men representing the emperor on their own initiative. However, this time they went to kill them. It was so incredible.There were several forces hidden in Yangzhou City. Other than imperial guards, there were people led by Lord Ning, Nie Chun, and Meng Xuan respectively. And these are just four forces she had seen in person. Why were they s
He Danggui guessed Qi Xuanyu asked it because he saw the strange color of her right pinky. In fact, since she met them, she had deliberately kept it from them by hiding her right hand under the sleeve. It was because she had been poisoned by imperial guards and it shouldn't be found by the two of them. She didn't want them to know that she had something to do with those guards. However, since he still noticed that, she could just say, "Here's what happened. I came out of the city to walk my horses but accidentally, I was bitten by a viper. I have blocked the acupoint with needles and I'm fine, so you can go about your own business now. I'll see a physician myself when I'm back in the city."Chang Nuo thought for a moment. Then, he turned his head to look at Qi Xuanyu and asked, "Is the poison deadly? She's also infected with the plague some time ago. Can it be cured?"He Danggui felt nervous. She didn't know how Qi Xuanyu worked as a physician. All s
He Danggui retreated her hand and pushed him and the purplish-red horse to leave the brothel. She urged, "It'll be serious to keep the poison in his body. The earlier you remove it, the better it will be. I know Meng Xuan is strong so you are not worried about him at all, but robust people will also get weak if they are injured. However strong Meng Xuan is, he's still an ordinary human. You should care more about him and look after him well these days. I'll thank you for that in the future, okay?"Meng Xuan asked in suspicion, "Why do you treat him so well now? You not only risked your life to find the antidote for him and requested me to take care of him but also wanted to thank me? Miss He, when did you become so noble?" He still remembered how she dealt with her aunt so ruthlessly and would think about it sometimes.They could never let such a cold-blooded woman become a member of Meng's Family. This was what he had thought about firmly while he w
Meng Ying rode the horse very quickly and accidentally noticed a familiar figure on the roadside. He pulled the rein to stop the horse and asked in a low voice, "Yi Tong? Why are you sitting on the roadside? Where's your master?" He ran into Yi Tong now so he could find out if He Danggui had told the truth.Yi Tong was sitting in a tea-booth on the roadside. She looked up and found it was Meng Ying in disguise. Surprised, she asked, "Third Childe, did you have some news about our Childe? Yi Tiao, Miss Xiao, and I have been looking for him, but we just lost him!" Sitting upright on the horseback, Meng Ying asked calmly, "You lost him? How? He's not a little kid."With a sigh, Yi Tong told the whole story slowly, "In fact, our Childe has been strange since the night of the day before yesterday. He shouted and sat up at the midnight and told us he had a nightmare. I helped him drink some convulsion-arresting tea and go to bed again, but he kept staring
He Danggui stuck to the window like a shadow and quietly listened to the besties chatting in the room with a lighted candle beside. However, she didn't want to hear what they were talking about at all. She was just curious about where her mother was. Where on earth did Nie Chun hide her mother? Guan Yun and Ling Miaoyi had chatted for so long while they still didn't mention what she cared about the most. He Danggui didn't believe Guan Yun wouldn't send someone to track or investigate it and keep it as evidence for the future if she found her mother was pregnant. Pregnant? That's impossible. In all ways, her mother would never get pregnant.He Danggui sighed silently. Her mother was indeed beautiful but she was already thirty-three years old and couldn't give birth to another child anymore. As far as He Danggui was concerned, her mother should stop loving any man and be self-independent. Otherwise, her mother was very softhearted and always thought men were indisp
Meng Xuan was playing with two blades of orchid grass by overlapping them. Then, he pulled them with his two hands. "Snap!" This time the left hand won. On the ground there were blades of it all over, and the three potted plants at the end of the bed were all bare. Judging from the stems in the soil, they seemed to be three pots of orchid grass before. Unconsciously, he destroyed all the plants He Danggui grew.He leaned against the pillows to relax. After a long while, he said, "The left one represents me, and the right one represents Xiaoyi. Her grass broke... Something must have happened to her! I'll go find her." While saying this, he began to rummage through the cabinet at the end of the bed to find himself some clothes. Meng Ying saw it and stopped him immediately. He persuaded, "Although the poison in your body has been cleared away, you should rest well to help the wound recover. Don't look for her. You'd better not get along with her anymore. She's not a
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
