Reborn as a phoenix, Qingluan took a fancy to her

"It was a family massacre! It was so tragic... More than 200 people in the family died! The deaths were horrific! It was so tragic that I can't even talk about it!"

"Ah?! Do the bandits in Xianyang dare to wipe out the whole family?"

Mu Yan asked curiously, and was also shocked that the bandits were so rampant. In the extremely safe Luofeng City, Mu Yan couldn't imagine what kind of hell on earth it was.

"How bad is it?"

Mu Yueyue asked curiously.

"Ahem, try not to vomit... I vomited the first time I heard it anyway..."

Dongfang Yun spoke cautiously, which made Mu Yan and Mu Yueyue think about it. Mu Yueyue hurriedly got up and went to the next room to get three spittoons. She, Sister Yanyan and Hua Ruoxi each placed one at their feet.

"Yunyun, why don't you just stop talking about it, if that's really the case..."

Mu Yan felt that there was something wrong with Dongfang Yun's tone.

"No! I've already vomited, you have to vomit once too, otherwise you are not good sisters anymore!"

"... I found that you are sometimes quite naughty, a little different from before..."

Mu Yan complained that she felt curious about Dongfang Yun's other side and thought he was cute, so she didn't continue to stop him.

"Hey, listen carefully."

"The family that was exterminated was the residence of an imperial censor named Zhang. It should have nothing to do with you, Xiao Ruoxi. After all, you have moved here for five years~"

Hua Ruoxi nodded. Indeed, his father had a son in his old age. He was the seventh child. His father had retired and moved to Luofengdu to live out his retirement early. Moreover, there were quite a few censors in Xianyang, eight with the surname Zhang. His father was the former Chief Censor, in charge of all the censors. After he abdicated, others took over his position.

What a coincidence...the person Dongfang Yun was talking about was exactly the neighbor of Hua Ruoxi's home in Xianyang...the relationship between the fathers of the two families was also quite good, and it was not just a superior-subordinate relationship. It was Hua Ruoxi's father who recommended Censor Zhang to the King of Qin for promotion to the position of Chief Censor. Hua Ruoxi didn't know that his Uncle Zhang succeeded his father's position.

"Sister Yan, you guessed wrong. The one who exterminated the whole family was not the bandits, but the King of Qin! I heard that the one who was exterminated was the chief of all the censors, the Imperial Censor!"

"Ah? How could this be?! What crime have they committed?!"

Mu Yan asked in surprise, but Dongfang Yun did not explain and continued quietly:

"There were 208 people in the family. All the men were torn apart by five horses! The women were beheaded, and the young ones were sold to brothels! It is said that the whole street was littered with severed arms and legs! It was horrible, like purgatory!"

"Uh! Yue!"

When Mu Yueyue heard this, she quickly covered her mouth. After seeing the spittoon at her feet, she remembered her preparations and held the spittoon and vomited violently.

"What crime did they commit? Why were they sentenced to death like this? And those women were so miserable!"

Mu Yan didn't vomit, but she forced herself to ask while suppressing her discomfort, and at the same time expressed her sympathy. Mu Yan knew what a brothel was, that is, a brothel, and she had heard a lot of rumors about it over the years.

The women in brothels all led a miserable life. Compared with death, Mu Yan felt that it was more comfortable to end it all. However, although Luofeng was so big, it was almost as big as a large urban area and was developing towards the scale of a modern provincial capital. However, despite its size, there was not a single brothel. After all, the prefect of Luofeng was an honest official. Not to mention brothels, there was not even a gambling house.

All of these were fueled by the four richest businessmen. They discovered that instead of engaging in crooked means, they could make more money in a good business environment. This is similar to the situation in later generations when they discovered that making games was more profitable than selling drugs.

So the four wealthy businessmen forced Li Anmin, who was a little hesitant at first, to shut down all the brothels and gambling houses. Li Anmin wanted to shut them down but was hesitant. After all, there were local tyrants protecting these gray industries. But with the help of the four wealthy businessmen from outside, it was like four dragons helping! It is true that a dragon from another river cannot suppress a local snake, but what about four fierce dragons at once? ! Good guy, within two days, any gray industry was swept away on a certain day.

……

After hearing what Dongfang Yun said, Hua Ruoxi began to sweat again. Her temples were wet, and her back was damp. Not just her head, but her whole body was sweating! She was not frightened by the scene, but she was afraid, afraid that this family was someone he knew...

There are eight censors with the surname Zhang! There are more than 200 people in the family, so there are only two! The scope is narrowed down again, and Hua Ruoxi is so excited that she breaks out in a cold sweat!

Why was Hua Ruoxi so strange? That was because the daughter of Censor Zhang and him were childhood friends! And she was the first one who didn't dislike him and said she would marry him when she grew up. Hua Ruoxi naturally knew what it meant to have so many people in her family.

Ten years ago…

Hua Ruoxi watched as everyone in the mansion was busy packing up. All the servants who lived nearby were dismissed, while the servants who followed the mansion continued to live with their family.

Hua Ruoxi was afraid that he would never see his best friend Zhang Ruoxue, the daughter of his neighbor, Censor Zhang Wanli, again, so he hurried to find Zhang Ruoxue and told her that his family had moved.

"Zhiyi! You're here?!"

Zhang Ruoxue, who was embroidering in her own pavilion, was delighted when she saw Hua Ruoxi. She said that only Zhang Ruoxue would call him Zhiyi and respect him, so Hua Ruoxi played best with her.

"Ruoxue! I..."

Hua Ruoxi found it difficult to speak as she looked at the surprised Zhang Ruoxue. Parting is always painful.

"I know, your family is leaving, right? In fact, I was planning to go find you in a while, but I didn't expect you to come first."

Zhang Ruoxue said with a smile that she took the separation very lightly and freely, but it did not mean that she did not cherish her relationship with Hua Ruoxi. She liked boys like Hua Ruoxi very much. She just didn't like ordinary boys like her brother, as she thought they were dirty.

Zhang Ruoxue's situation was caused by the fact that when she was six years old, she discovered Hua Ruoxi's gender while playing with her. Because they were young and ignorant... they were honest with each other early on... and even studied that place...

Zhang Ruoxue was amazed from then on. As time went by, Hua Ruoxi appealed to her more and more, because no other boy loved cleanliness as much as she did. As for the fact that Hua Ruoxi looked like a girl, Zhang Ruoxue thought it was icing on the cake. She also thought that girls were pretty and she usually liked to look at other girls, but she couldn't really put her hands on them because it went against her family tradition and she was afraid that people would say she was just polishing her mirror or something. However, the appearance of Hua Ruoxi solved her urgent problem and she didn't have to worry about being married to a stranger.

Because her father told her that she would be Hua Ruoxi's wife in the future, but she was too young, so she could wait until she was sixteen.

"What?! You know my family is leaving! Then you and I..."

Hua Ruoxi also likes her very much, but she has always been getting along with Zhang Ruoxue as a sister. He doesn't know what to do next and his head is in a mess.

"Zhiyi, why are you worried? It's not like we won't be able to see each other again in the future. I've never seen you like this before, so anxious and flustered. Weren't you quite quiet before?"

"Ah? Yes, hahaha, then I came to see you because I missed you."

The two who just turned ten years old had no idea how far away the other would be from them. One minute was equal to five years!

Hua Ruoxi's father, named Hua Hu, was happy that his youngest son would marry the daughter of his good friend Zhang Wanli. Seeing his six sons all get married and Hua Ruoxi grow up, he and his wife also paid attention to their youngest son Hua Ruoxi. However, he had been exchanging letters with Zhang Wanli. Zhang Wanli told him that the capital of Xianyang was becoming more and more dangerous! He did not allow him to go, so he did not take Hua Ruoxi to Xianyang. The letters spanned a long time, and he could only receive one every two months.

Hua Hu is also very superstitious, but he doesn't want Hua Ruoxi to be too far away from his home. At least he can't leave Luofengdu. This is his bottom line. He didn't listen to the fortune teller who told his son to leave home thousands of miles away. Coincidentally, when Hua Ruoxi was taken by his mother to visit the Phoenix Temple, Hua Ruoxi's appearance was unique in the world. In the eyes of the two goddess statues, the four little fire spirits left by Suzaku saw that Hua Ruoxi was a man with a female appearance! They had never seen this most unusual existence among humans for many years, and he was born with a male body and a female appearance! At that time, a full-body scan was performed, and after the scan, the scan was reported to the leader, all in one go~

Remember, it is congenital! Most of the Internet celebrities with male bodies and female appearances in later generations have male characteristics, which cannot be covered by makeup! If you really reveal a little feature or state, it will be disgusting. Hua Ruoxi is different. She has an additional congenital feature, which represents the congenital female mentality. The female body is not just a female appearance. Except for two parts of the body, everything else is a female appearance! Those with fair skin and beautiful appearance are more beautiful than ordinary human women without makeup! If Hua Ruoxi and Mu Yan are compared in appearance, they are even on the same level, which shows how rare they are.
