The Tsundere System Chasing Wife
Chapter 6: Life and Death, I'll Marry You
After Li He left, the servants of the Su Mansion surrounded Su Yan. There was worry in their eyes. Prime Minister Su and Su Yan had always treated them well and even gave each of them an extra sum of silver before leaving.
Unexpectedly, Li He was not an easy person to deal with. After a few days, he captured them all and brought them back to the Su Mansion. He instructed them to clean up everything here and wait for their master to come back.
They didn't expect that Li He really brought Su Yan back and said he wanted to marry the young lady.
Su Yan's face turned pale and her eyes were red. So General Lin... might have been in trouble... And Li He threatened Su Yan to marry him with the lives of Prime Minister Su and Ling'er. It was despicable! Li He is a scumbag! All the servants in the Su Mansion secretly cursed Li He in their hearts.
"Miss, if you want to get out of this door, I will take you out at the risk of my life." A young man said. He didn't want Su Yan to marry that beast Li He!
"Yes! Miss, I will save you even if it costs me my life."
"That bastard, a toad wanting to eat swan flesh, can only dream about it. Miss, please go away. We will send you away safely."
All the servants rushed to say that as long as Su Yan nodded in agreement, they would take Su Yan away from the Su Mansion at all costs. As they were asking, a child's voice was heard.
"Miss, don't be sad. Did something happen to General Lin..."
"What nonsense!"
The young child was yelled at by an old man before he could finish his words. The old man's surname was Zhang, and Su Yan usually called her Aunt Zhang. Aunt Zhang hurried forward, gently took Su Yan's hand, and patted Su Yan's shoulder to comfort her.
"Don't worry, kid. General Lin is a skilled martial artist and will be fine. Li He just wants to scare you. Don't be afraid. As long as we are here, he won't touch you. We have been observing the movements in the mansion these days. If you want to leave, we will definitely find a way."
Su Yanyao shook her head and said
"Aunt Zhang, I won't leave if there's nothing else to do."
After Su Yan finished speaking, she bowed to express her gratitude to the person behind her who was so kind to her.
"Thank you. The fate between Lin Mo and I has ended. If that's the case, there's no need to force it. I want to take a rest first. You guys go ahead and do your work."
Su Yan said this with ease. Aunt Zhang knew that Su Yan must be feeling sad. The person she loved was now unknown whether he was dead or alive. Ling'er, who had always been close to her father and sister, was also captured by Li He. Su Yan had no way to retreat and no way to go...
"Miss, if you want to rest first, then rest first. Ah Chun, take Miss to rest quickly."
"Yes"
A maid heard Aunt Zhang calling her, and Achun immediately walked up and took Su Yan back to Su Yan's dormitory.
The servants looked at the direction where Su Yan had walked away, and looked at each other, not knowing what to say. The housekeeper walked up to Aunt Zhang and asked.
"Aunt Zhang, why doesn't the young lady leave?"
Aunt Zhang sighed and said that Su Yan just didn't want to implicate them. Besides, her father and Ling'er were still in Li He's hands, so how could she bear to leave.
Afterwards, Aunt Zhang asked them to disperse and go about their own business, and wait for Su Yan to think it over clearly. No matter what her choice was, they would listen to Su Yan.
The birds chirped softly at night, as if telling of endless sorrow. Su Yan looked at the night sky, tears streaming down her cheeks. Su Yan held a white jade hairpin in her hand, feeling extremely sad. Su Yan cried silently, and then carefully held the white jade hairpin in her arms.
Lin Mo...I've hurt you...
The next day, a group of guards carried boxes of rare treasures into the Su Mansion, tied with bright red ribbons.
Some people couldn't help but feel angry and sad when they saw this scene. General Lin fought for the State of Li, but he didn't expect that the third prince of the State of Li wanted to marry his wife just a few days after his death. How shameless!
As soon as the news of Lin Mo's death arrived, Li He spread the news of Lin Mo's death. He said that Lin Mo had betrayed the Li Kingdom. They found that Lin Mo had reached a cooperation with the enemy country and sold the Li Kingdom's defense map to the enemy country for tens of millions of gold. After being discovered, he tried to resist, but was killed on the spot when the resistance failed.
They were not all fools, no one would believe such words, they knew what General Lin was like. But they did not dare to speak up for General Lin. A few days ago, several people went to the gate of the palace to ask for justice for Lin Mo, but they were arrested by soldiers and put into jail. Now their life or death is unknown.
Common people like them could only stab Li He in the back to vent their anger on behalf of General Lin who had protected them.
As soon as Li He entered the Su Mansion, he went straight to find Su Yan. The servants of the Su Mansion looked at Li He with very unfriendly eyes, but he was not angry. After all, Su Yan would definitely be angry if he killed innocent people.
"Yan'er, what are you looking at?"
Li He walked into the yard and found Su Yan sitting under a plum tree and drinking tea. Her eyes were fixed on the flower buds that had not yet grown up on the tree. Even if Su Yan didn't say it, Li He knew that the other side of the plum tree was the Lin Mansion martial arts training ground. In the past, Lin Mo often practiced martial arts there. Li He didn't get angry and continued to look at Su Yan and said.
"Everyone within a hundred miles knows that I will marry you. The dress and other things are all carefully selected by me. You can go and have a look when you are free later. If there is anything else you want, just tell me directly. Yan'er, I am serious about you. I like you. I have liked you since the first time I saw you."
Li He was extremely serious when he said this, and every word sounded like a promise.
Su Yan looked at Li He like this, as if she saw Lin Mo who had made a promise to her before. That day, Lin Mo also looked at her with such sincere eyes, but... because of her... Lin Mo did not come back...
Su Yan picked up a cup of tea and handed it to Li He. Li He did not expect Su Yan to give him a cup of tea. His mood suddenly became very good. He hurriedly and carefully took the tea, as if he was holding a treasure in his hand. Li He gently sniffed the fragrance of the tea. It tasted very good. Li He took a small sip and quickly said.
"Yan'er, this tea is really good. It's the best tea I've ever had in my life. I hope I can drink it often in the future."
Su Yan did not answer Li He's question, but asked suddenly.
"Li He, will you do whatever I say?"
Li He didn't know why Su Yan asked this. It might be that Su Yan was worried that he would not be reliable in the future. In order to reassure Su Yan, Li He said it again.
"Of course Yan'er, no matter what you say in the future, I will do it as long as I can do it."
Su Yan understood what Li He meant, and then smiled calmly. Su Yan reached out and gently stroked the buds of the plum tree. The flowering period seemed to be delayed this year.
Li He stayed in the Su Mansion until noon and left after lunch. He was in a very good mood. Although he and Su Yan didn't say much today and Su Yan's attitude was no different from yesterday, Su Yan gave him a cup of tea today, which meant that Su Yan would accept him and like him in the future. The rest was just a matter of time.
Li He was busy with work in the afternoon and had no time to visit Su Yan. Instead, he went to see the Emperor and Prime Minister Su who were closer to him. Li He was afraid that they would be bored so he locked them up together. Li He told them about his marriage to Su Yan and the news that Lin Mo had died.
After hearing this, Li Chen picked up a teacup and threw it at Li He. In an instant, Li He's head was pierced by the teacup. A stream of blood flowed from Li He's forehead, blocking his vision.
"You bastard! How could you do such a thing! How much contribution did Lin Mo make to the Li Kingdom! How could you send troops to kill him? How could you take someone else's wife! Li He! How could I have a son like you!"
"What do you mean by stealing someone else's wife? I'm just taking back what belongs to me. Su Yan is mine! I'm not wrong! Since you don't welcome me, I'll wait until Su Yan and I are married before I serve tea to you two."
After saying this, Li He left with an expressionless face. He ignored the curses from Prime Minister Su, the Emperor, and Ling'er.
Prime Minister Su sat down on the ground dejectedly. If he had known this would happen, he should have let Su Yan and Lin Mo get married sooner... I feel sorry for Yan'er. How sad she must be when she heard the news of Lin Mo's death...
Li Chen looked at the decadent Prime Minister Su and felt extremely guilty.
"Prime Minister Su, I'm sorry. It's my fault that I didn't take good care of my child and caused you so much trouble."
"Your Majesty, can you blame me for that..."
Now that they were trapped and Su Yan was forced to marry, he was worried about the safety of the child...
Everyone thought that the unpopular wedding tomorrow would be held as scheduled. Some people felt unfair for Lin Mo, as they didn't know where General Lin's body was buried. Lin Mo's wedding was robbed by that thief Li He. Some people sighed that Su Yan was such a beautiful woman, her ideal husband, and a match made in heaven, but now she has become like this.
When Su Yan was sent back to the Su Mansion by Li He that day, some people looked at her pale and expressionless face. It was really a pity. It was fate that played tricks on people...
It was late at night, and after everyone had fallen asleep, Su Yan put on the wedding dress her mother had given her, and used the dim light of the fire to put on makeup. After applying lipstick, her pale face became more gorgeous. Anyone who saw her would be amazed by her beauty.
After Su Yan finished her makeup, she tightly grasped the white jade hairpin that Lin Mo gave her, held the candle in one hand, and walked step by step to the wedding dress sent by Li He. Without any hesitation, she lit up the wedding dress and Li He's dowry.
"Lin Mo, it's all my fault..."
"I'm sorry, Lin Mo, for causing you such serious injuries... It must be very uncomfortable for you to be alone on the road to the underworld... I'm here to accompany you..."
"I miss you, Lin Mo... The day you left, I wanted to go with you so much, I wanted to come to you regardless of everything, but I didn't... I just waited there, waiting for you to come back..."
Su Yan set fire to everything burnable in the room. She blocked the door and the windows, leaving no way for herself to survive.
"I'm here to find you, Lin Mo. Please wait for me on the Yellow Spring Road... I want to see you again."
After doing all this, Su Yan smiled with relief. She lay quietly on the cold ground, letting the fire devour everything.
"I'll marry you..."
The fire spread quickly and completely covered Su Yan's entire house. By the time the people in the Su Mansion discovered it, it was too late.
The overwhelming smell of burning filled the Su Mansion. All the servants in the Su Mansion cried. With tears in their eyes, they carried buckets of water and poured them on Su Yan's house, but it was of no use...
"Miss! Please open the door! If you don't want to get married, we can help you! Don't be so depressed!" the young child roared.
He didn't want Miss Su Yan to die in the sea of fire... She was such a good person... How could he treat her like this...
Aunt Zhang was eighty years old and her face was covered with tears. She didn't want to see her son die before her. She knew that Su Yan didn't want to implicate them, nor did she want to implicate Prime Minister Su and Ling'er, so she went to accompany General Lin alone...
Even though the people in the Su Mansion knew that Su Yan might be dead, they still fetched water to try to protect Su Yan's body.
Miss Su Yan is afraid of pain! How painful would it be for her to have this fire burn on her body?
The fire burned all night long and could not be put out until dawn. The fire was so big that it seemed as if God had done it on purpose. All the people of the Li State saw the flames. The officers and soldiers in the mansion shouted to everyone in the Su Mansion to evacuate, but no one in the Su Mansion made any extra moves. They kept fetching water to put out the fire, fetching water to put out the fire.
"If the fire continues like this, everyone will die. Come, take all the remaining people out of the mansion."
"Yes!"
Li He was arranging the arrangements for his marriage with Su Yan in the main hall. His face was filled with a happy smile, and the hostility in him was almost gone as he wore a red wedding gown. He watched the guards enter the hall. Li He wanted to ask the guards for their opinions, but he got the news of Su Yan's death. Li He froze in place, looking at the newcomers in disbelief.
"You're kidding, aren't you?"
"Your Highness, I am not joking. The fire has not been put out yet."
The guard saw Li He rushing towards the Su Mansion and said
"It's too late, Third Prince! The person is gone. This is the letter from Su Yan's maid. She said that Su Yan gave it to her when she sent her away, and asked her to give it to the Third Prince in the morning."
Li He took the letter from the guard with trembling hands, thinking that Su Yan would scold him and curse him, but what was written on it was...
Third Prince, be well. When you see this letter, I'll be gone. I miss Lin Mo and want to accompany him. It's easy to get into my bones when I like you. It's already deeply imprinted in my bones. I can't change it. If it's because of me that you become like that, then let my death end it. You said yesterday that you would do whatever I said, so I hope Third Prince will let it go and live your own life. Don't live with a mask like this. Third Prince, I hope you can live the way you want in the end.
Su Yanliu
Li He looked at the letter and suddenly laughed out loud. Tears welled up in the corners of his eyes uncontrollably, and the piercing pain spread throughout his body.
Su Yan was like the light that shone into his darkness. She was the only reason for him to live in this world. Now that Su Yan was gone, everything was meaningless...
Li He carefully put away the letter, which was the only thing Su Yan left for him. Li He looked at the guard and said.
"Go ahead, Father will bring it here."
"Yes."
After Li Chen arrived at the hall, he thought that Li He was going to play some tricks again. He was prepared to risk his life today to not let Su Yan marry Li He. However, as soon as he entered the hall, he saw Li He sitting decadently on the steps of the throne, drinking big gulps of wine in his hand.
Li He raised his eyes and saw Li Chen's puzzled look and said.
"Father, I'm sorry. I was really wrong this time... I'll return your kingdom to you. I haven't touched it... If only you hadn't found me alive in the cold palace, I wouldn't have met her..."
And he would not let Su Yan die in the fire... Li He thought he could be better than Lin Mo, and that sooner or later he would make Su Yan fall in love with him... He was wrong... It was too late... He was not worthy of Su Yan...
Before the emperor could figure out the situation, Li He spat out a mouthful of black blood. Now Li He's internal organs felt like they were being bitten by millions of insects. In less than half a moment, Li He's mind was distracted. He seemed to be looking at Su Yan who was talking to him tenderly ten years ago.
Does it still hurt? Don't be sad, everything will pass, your good days are still ahead, just hold on a little longer.
Li Chen panicked when he saw Li He was in a bad condition.
"He'er, what happened to you? Call the imperial physician!" Li Chen shouted hurriedly.
Li He did not answer Li Chen's question. He poured himself the last glass of wine and drank it all.
After doing all this, Li He took out a list from his arms and handed it to Li Chen. On it were clearly written the names of the treacherous ministers of the Li Kingdom and the evidence of embezzled silver.
Li Chen looked at the dying Li He, he took Li He's hand and spoke quickly.
"Don't be afraid, He'er. I'll take you to see the doctor right away!"
Li Chen immediately ran to Li He, carried Li He on his back and walked outside. It began to rain heavily, so heavily that the road could not be seen clearly. Some palace servants who were confused about the situation saw that it was Li Chen and hurriedly chased after him with umbrellas. Finally, Li Chen stopped in the rain, and it was hard to tell whether the water on his face was rain or his tears. Li He stopped breathing.
