He Danggui recognized it was Meng Xuan's voice and she thought, "You're finally here to save me. Although it's a bit late, I'll still forgive you. You should come to me earlier next time..." She was also worried about Meng Xuan's injury.
But if he saw the way she looked now, she would have to spend much time explaining it to him. Before she could ask him why he hurt Duan Xiaolou, he would keep hurling questions at her first. Thus, she couldn't meet him for now. Was Meng Xuan one of the people of the two unknown groups Xue Xiao had talked about? Did he have anything to do with the attack on Lu Jiangbei and other Imperial Guards? If he did, she would be able to discuss with him Lu Jiangbei's intention to arrest her.
While thinking about this, He Danggui put one finger on her lips and told Liu Sui to stay silent. Then, she pointed at her clothes to show what she wanted. Liu Sui was a smart girl and she immediately understood what He Danggui meant
"Miss? Miss?" Liu Sui gently called He Danggui who was in a daze and asked, "Are you really not the person the man outside is looking for? Let's ignore him, then. Anything strange can happen in the Baisha Mountain Villa and I've been used to it." Liu Sui started to introduce herself while keeping combing the hair for He Danggui, "My name is Liu Sui and I'm from the capital. My family earns a living by growing melons. My parents are healthy and my brother and his wife call the shots at home. They thought I was idling away my time because I didn't do farm work. Thus, they sold me to Ling's Family as a maid 11 years ago and since then, I haven't been at home.""Oh? Don't you want to go back home?" Hearing her words, He Danggui got interested in the topic so she neglected Meng Xuan for now and asked, "Do you need to go back and visit your parents first before you go to Yangzhou City with me?"Liu Sui sighed indifferently and replied, "Miss, you're
He Danggui nodded tearfully and said, "I do. Meng Xuan, I'd like to marry you. Didn't we perform the formal wedding ceremony before?" This time, she was really willing to marry him. She wanted to do her best to soothe him.Meng Xuan couldn't hear her voice or see her response. Judging from the airflow on his face, he learned that she was nodding. So, he curled his lips even more and looked better. Then, he hung his head and asked her gently, "Xiaoyi, may I kiss you?"He blew his breath on her rosy cheeks. In return, she put her arms around Meng Xuan's neck and approached his lips. Instead of making a move proactively, she just waited for him to come to her.Meng Xuan felt ecstatic. After breathing hurriedly a bit, he followed her breath and captured the lips that he had long wanted. She was always cold. Only her lips and tongue were the warmest and most inclusive. She could tolerate the occasional reckless action of this man whom
The tall man next to them and He Danggui comforted Meng Xuan considerately at the same time, "It's okay. Just take your time."Hearing it, He Danggui turned to look at the man up and down. Judging from his appearance, he should be in his forties. He had a chiseled face with fair skin, deep-set eyes, and a Roman nose. When he put on a faint smile, he looked even more beautiful than a lady. There were two eye-catching things about him. First, his bridge of the nose and his chin looked slightly similar to Meng Xuan's, so obviously, they had kinship. No wonder that Meng Xuan called him... Fourth Uncle? Was he the famous elder Meng Xuan had mentioned and had taught him martial arts? What was his name?Second, she noticed the man's slanted eyes were as deep as a well and showed no vigor or pupil. As a doctor, He Danggui believed he was blind and it was just proved by his not making holes in his mask. For some kung fu masters, it wasn't very importan
Looking up at Meng Xuan, He Danggui asked gently, "Shenshi... Do your ears hurt? Do your eyes hurt?" Seeing him just smiling without answering her, she guessed he couldn't hear her again so she turned to ask Meng Xi, "Sir, what happened to Meng Xuan's eyes? We shouldn't let them be blown by the wind, right? Why don't we cover them with silk, then?"With a smile, Meng Xi blew his jade flute for a while. Hearing the tune, Meng Xuan laughed and said, "Don't worry about me, Xiaoyi. I'm better than I've ever been. Several days later when I can take off the earmuff, I will take you with me wherever I go as kangaroos always carry their babies in the pouches. Then, you can talk to me all the time." While saying this, he picked her up as if he was measuring how big his pouch should be designed."Kangaroo? What is that? A hamster with a pouch?" He Danggui asked while frowning, "Are you going to become a hamster?" She couldn't help imagining a hamster th
He rejected it because he was afraid that you might not recognize him!Hearing this, He Danggui was stunned again and even felt her teeth were sore. She had mixed feelings when she thought Meng Xuan had kept calling her before. She, however, just ignored him and applied flower decorations to her forehead.Looking at Meng Xuan who was wearing the earmuff and still smiling stupidly, she could imagine he waved one of his hands in the air while exploring the way with the oak walker, and his swollen eyelids were blown by the wind. And he kept calling her name... Thinking of it, she blamed herself for knowing the truth too late and wanted to make it up for him. She remembered the dessert he liked the most was...Meng Xuan couldn't hear anything. After He Danggui helped him up, he introduced Meng Xi to her happily, "Xiaoyi, our master is mighty and can be seen as the most powerful man in Wulin in the last hundred years. No one can compet
He Danggui was stunned for a moment. The first thing she thought about wasn't how Meng Xuan and she should distribute the priceless Di Ru or how scared she was after Meng Xi told her "Not long later something wrong will happen to your eyes". Instead, as a smart woman, she guessed her master was suspicious of her love for Meng Xuan and testing her. Why would anything wrong happen to her eyes for no reason? What's more, all ailments or serious diseases meant nothing to her.Back then when she lived in the Luo's Mansion, she got ill frequently. She often caught fevers or had excessive internal heat but she never treated herself because she felt better with a disease to cure when she was upset. It seemed diseases could provide her with another kind of sense of security so that the demon in her heart wouldn't devour herself. Now Zhu Quan could no more bother her and she had already confessed her love for Meng Xuan. She wouldn't let anything happen to herself, o
"Master, please take some tea." He Danggui served tea for Meng Xi.He Danggui found that there was a tea set, tea leaves, and clean water in the room. It indicated someone had lived here for a long time. He Danggui picked up two small pieces of charcoal with a clip and burned them on a stove. She also burned a small piece of incense that had the fragrance of jasmine. It was in harmony with their mood now. Meanwhile, Meng Xi took out a wooden fish and a silver qin and played music with them. Meng Xuan smiled and said, "Uncle, the tea brewed by Xiaoyi is one of Yangzhou's Four Treasures." Obviously, he got the message from Meng Xi's performance.He Danggui boiled water, washed teacups and the teapot, added tea leaves and hot water, washed them, brewed tea, poured it into the teacups, and finally, served it to Meng Xi. She was adept in it as if she was dancing but not brewing tea. She made a pot of jasmine tea elegantly. Then, she gave Meng Xi th
"Meng Xuan? Meng Xuan!" He Danggui called Meng Xuan's name in a low voice and patted his ruddy face, "Meng Xuan, wake up! I have something to ask you!"She called him again and again but Meng Xuan still didn't move. He breathed steadily. Obviously, he was asleep. Because of the medicine, tiredness, and loss of sight as well as hearing, he was sleeping like a baby and smiling.He Danggui sighed and took down the jade pendant with Azure Dragon on his neck. She observed it and was sure it belonged to Zhu Quan. Last time in the Depositary of Buddhist Texts, she noticed Zhu Quan still had some memories of his previous life and she stuffed the jade pendant into his hand. Zhu Quan, however, refused to hold it and it fell between his fingers. Chang Nuo who stood next to him caught it immediately. He Danggui guessed Chang Nuo would give it back to Zhu Quan sooner or later and then, she could distance herself from these utterly.Now, Meng X
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
