Twister
Chapter 1:
Hangzhou City is the most affluent town in Zhejiang Province, with crowds of people, merchants and banks row upon row, and it is a bustling scene as far as the eye can see.
In particular, Hangzhou has beautiful scenery, and the tranquility of West Lake is famous all over the world.
Of course, there are many wealthy businessmen and high-ranking officials who settled here, and among them, Li Feng, the former Shangshu, is the most eye-catching.
Li Feng was the late emperor's celebrity during his lifetime. He was a clean and honest official with a benevolent heart, and was deeply loved by the people.Everyone believed that Li Feng contributed a lot to the virtuous emperor and the people living in such comfort.
After Li Feng assisted the Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace to succeed to the throne ten years ago, he retired from the throne on the grounds of old age, and moved his family to Hangzhou. The nearby residents respectfully called him "Old Li".
However, it is sad that good officials have no descendants. Everyone in Hangzhou City knows that Li Lao's only son, Li Yun, has suffered from a serious disease since childhood.
In order to cure his only son, Li Feng tried his best and kept inviting famous doctors from all over the world to treat his son, but there was still no improvement.Just when he was at a loss what to do, he had no choice but to try a popular custom among the folks who have not yet developed their wisdom - Chongxi, to save the life of his beloved son.
After being scouted by a matchmaker, she fell in love with Lan Qin, the only daughter of the Lan family who lives in Dongxiang.
It is rumored that Lan Qin has the appearance of a closed moon and shameful flowers, and I still feel pity for her delicate posture. If she were to marry Li Yun, it would be a perfect fit.In this way, the prestige of the Li Mansion will not be insulted, and it will not make people laugh at Li Yun, who is lingering and sick, destined to marry a woman without salt.
However, looking at it from another angle, this is very unfair to Lan Qin.
Lan Qin's father, Lan Tianmu, was originally a well-known figure in Hangzhou, but later he failed in business and his family fell into ruin.
When Lan Tianmu was at a loss, he learned the news that Li's mansion took a fancy to his daughter, but he was unhappy and worried.
To put it bluntly, who would be willing to marry their daughter to a dying man?If nothing else, just look at Li Yun's ailments, which made him unable to laugh.
To put it bluntly, even if such a man can't die, how can he fulfill his duty as a husband?How could he bear to ask his daughter Qin'er to be a widow?
But Lan Qin was naturally filial and understood that her father was in trouble, and Li Feng also promised them that if she married into Li's mansion, she would guarantee to solve their debt problem.After finally getting such an opportunity, how could she refuse it?
Perhaps, she may not be able to find happiness by marrying into the Li Mansion, but she is used to being self-reliant, and has already developed a reclusive personality. It may not be difficult for her to be the daughter-in-law of the Li family, but the living environment and identity have changed. ,that is it.
As for what happened to her husband, she didn't care at all.
Therefore, she tried her best to fight, and finally persuaded her father to choose a good date to marry her into Li Mansion.
Helplessly, God played tricks, and the development of the matter was not as smooth as she imagined. It was less than three days after she got married, but Li Yun died due to the aggravation of his illness!
Even though he was already a dying person, this result was still a major blow to Li Fu.
They even wondered if Li Yun would not have died so early if he hadn't married a wife to celebrate the joy?Or is it that the woman surnamed Lan is inherently evil?
"You woman, you actually killed my Yun'er. I thought that marrying you into the mansion would help Yun'er's condition. Who would have known... who would have known that you are the real broom star!"
Lan Qin kept her face down in silence, bearing the pressure from all directions, not because she was unmoved, but because her heart and body were already paralyzed by the pain...
On the day she married into Li Mansion, she discovered that Li Yun's condition was not as simple as the outside world imagined.His complexion was sallow, his figure was emaciated, and he could not speak at all. The only thing that proved that he was still alive was his shallow breath and the occasional cough of blood.
Can such a body really get better because of her entrance?
She didn't believe it... Especially on the day of the wedding, the gongs, drums and pipes were blowing loudly, which would only disturb the patient's rest and make his condition worse.
Sure enough, something was wrong with him the next day, and he dragged on until the third day before he swallowed his last breath.
This incident shocked everyone in Li's house, Master Li fainted because of it, seeing that the red light in his house was hung up three days ago, but now he has to pull up the white curtain, this is indeed a major blow.
After Li Feng fell ill, Madam Li became even more angry and blamed Lan Qin for all her crimes, not only accusing her of being a broom star, but also saying that she was born with a restraint, which was the reason for the decline of the Lan family.
Not only that, but she also forcibly took back a large sum of dowry to Lan Tianmu, and called them the broom family, and Lan Tianmu couldn't bear such insults anymore, so he hanged himself.
After Lan Qin heard the news, she was heartbroken and sad. She never thought that her father would do such a stupid thing, so wouldn't her sacrifice be in vain?
Now, she has become the target of public criticism, she has been rejected by everyone in the Li Mansion, and she is also a girl with a restraint in the mouth of the people in Hangzhou City. How can she be embarrassed by this?
She couldn't help thinking, should she go with her father?
But God was extremely unfair to her, not to mention making her a kefu, and she didn't even have the right to seek death.
Li Yun's death was less than seventy-seven and forty-nine days old, and they used various reasons to drive Lan Qin away. Lan Qin insisted on refusing, thinking that if she left, she would not only be called an abandoned wife, but how could she be worthy of her father's spirit in heaven?
"You go back with Li Shun tomorrow, don't come back again." Madam Li pointed at Lan Qin who was kneeling on the ground, her eyes were as sharp as a knife.
"What?" Lan Qin was bewildered.
"I will treat you kindly." The instigator, Li Shun, is Li Yun's cousin, who has always coveted the wealth and power of the Li family.Ever since Lan Qin got married, he was even more greedy for her beauty.
This is great, Li Yun's life has passed away, as long as he snatches Lan Qin away again, everything in the Li family will belong to him.
"Mother, what do you mean..." Lan Qin's eyes widened suddenly.
"Auntie means to remarry you to me." Li Shun said proudly.
"Ah? No... I will never—" Lan Qin roared out, her expression full of determination and stubbornness without hesitation.
"You are so stupid, it's rare that Li Shun doesn't dislike you, you'd better remarry early, so as not to make me feel bad by staying here." Mother Li snorted coldly.
"Yes, Lan Qin, marry me, and I will love you."
Of course Li Shun understood that Lan Qin was still a piece of white jade, and it was impossible for his ailing cousin to fulfill his husband and wife obligations to her.
Such a beautiful and touching flower, no matter if she is a broom star or a nemesis, he will definitely marry her!When he thought of her naked body being locked under him, his whole body was itchy and hot.
"Stop dreaming, even if I die, I will not remarry you!" She said in a serious voice, her body trembling violently...
Why?Why can't they tolerate her?And make such a cruel decision to her!
"Lan Qin!" Madam Li frowned.
"Mother, how could you do this, do you feel sorry for Li Yun?" Lan Qin's pupils were soaked with tears, showing her tenderness and beauty even more.
"Your temper is really tough, no wonder even your life is so hard. Marrying Li Shun is a redemption for Li Yun. In the future, if you have a son and a half daughter, you can be adopted under Yun'er's knees logically. This is considered a treat for Yun'er." There is an explanation."
Madam Li stared at her without any pretense, not giving her the slightest chance to refute or refuse.
Lan Qin was stunned, not knowing how to refute——
"You mean...I have to remarry?" She asked hoarsely.
"That's right, if you're obedient, you're still from the Li family." Seeing that the plan was about to succeed, Li Shun proudly showed a treacherous smile.
Lan Qin looked up and stared at him for a while, then said: "I don't know when to leave?"
"Auntie, what do you think?" Li Shun pretended to be polite and asked Madam Li's opinion.
"If you want to hurry up, you will set off early tomorrow morning to leave here with Shun'er. It is best to go far away, lest I be swept by the tail of your broom again!" Madam Li said mercilessly.
"In that case, can you let me go back to my mother's house?" She said blankly, as if she had seen everything through and didn't care about any decision.
"It's getting late, okay?" Li Shun hesitated for a while.
"She will soon be yours, and it's up to you to decide." Madam Li couldn't wait to draw a line with Lan Qin.
"I'm just going back to have a look. If you don't let me go, I will never go with you willingly." Lan Qin narrowed his eyes and said.
Seeing her beauty, Li Shun's heart?
He threatened Lan Qin, so that she would know that it was more difficult to escape from his palm than climbing to the sky.
Lan Qin just stared straight ahead in a daze, circling her "way" in her mind.
??
Lan Qin raised her head, looked at the plaque with gold rims hanging high on the door panel, and the four big characters on it that symbolized Deze Yongbei and descendants' prosperity - Lan Xun Guifu, she was really moved Qian, as soon as she recalled the brilliance and glory of the past, everything seemed like yesterday, but now she has fallen to this point.
Her surname is Lan, and her parents have taught her to have a chaste sentiment like Lan Yu since she was a child, but now... Alas!The past is unbearable!
"Lan Qin, hurry up, I'll wait for you outside the house." Li Shun was afraid that the duck would fly away, so he insisted on following him.
She didn't refuse, just nodded silently.
Stepping into the house, she walked straight to the back of the house without hesitation.She first went to her parents' room to have a look, and then went back to her own room to find the doll that had been with her for more than ten years. She still remembered that when she was three years old, her father specially bought it from the capital for her birthday. Gift.
She hugged it, walked out from the back door, and quickly walked through several streets. At night, almost no one noticed her as a woman walking in a hurry.
On the other hand, because she wanted to go where she wanted to go, and she was worried that Li Shun would find out in advance, so she didn't dare to stop at all.When she walked all the way to the foot of He Leng Mountain on the northern edge of Hangzhou, she finally slowed down, thinking that it would be okay even if Li Shun found out that she had escaped, because she was about to leave...
She finally climbed to the top of the mountain, already dripping with sweat and out of breath, but her mood is very calm, because she is about to get rid of the spell of "Broom Star"!
Lan Qin looked at the bottom of the valley. Although it was dark, she knew that the bottom of the valley was full of huge rocks. If she jumped off, she would definitely die on the spot, perhaps without even feeling a little pain.
That's fine, so she won't feel heartache anymore...
Staring at the bottom of the deep valley, she took another step forward, then closed her eyes, took a breath, and was about to jump down, but suddenly a rope was tied around her waist, and she pulled back abruptly, she was anxious Taking a few steps back, he fell to the ground, and the doll in his hand rolled down into the grass beside him!
She was so shocked that she couldn't speak, and looked back with her small mouth slightly open, and suddenly found a man with a smiling face hidden in a big tree, and he was showing a strange expression.
"who are you?"
Lan Qin hurriedly tore off the rope tied around her waist, but she didn't know that the knot was loosened, and the rope returned to the man on the tree as if knowing the way!
"You are young, why can't you think about it? Even if you don't want to live, don't look for this kind of place. Jumping from here will definitely change your face, and to put it more tragically, you will be dead. Why bother?"
The man sitting on the top of the tree smiled coldly. Through the moonlight, she could clearly see that he had neat white teeth, and he was dressed in high-quality silk and satin, which showed that his status was not low.
But where does he not sleep, actually sleeps on a tree?! However, he looks comfortable and at ease, and the corners of his grinning mouth are more like making fun of her timid behavior of not daring to face the future.
"It's none of your business, you don't need to meddle in your own business."
Lan Qin never had a good impression of this kind of flirtatious man, even if he saved her life just now, she couldn't put on a good face towards him.
She had already seen through the ugly face of a man, who looked at her without lust or slyness?It is conceivable that the reason why this man saved her must have no good intentions, so that she would not be deceived again!
Especially when she thought of Li Shun's disgusting eyes with color, she couldn't help but feel hairy all over her body, and she no longer had any feelings for men.
"You are such a vicious woman. I saved you with good intentions. It's fine if you don't appreciate it, but you even uttered evil words... Sigh! Count my efforts as wasted!"
The man closed his eyes and pointed to the bottom of the valley, "Go jump! Don't worry, I will never meddle in my own business this time."
Lan Qin was stunned for a moment, stared at him in disbelief, then turned to look at the edge of the cliff... To tell the truth, if she were to dance again, she might not have the courage just now.
"Why do you want me to dance? I just don't want to dance!" She stamped her feet, shaking off all etiquette, and shouted at the man in the tree.
At this time, her heart was very happy. Since she was a child, her parents have educated her with etiquette, so that she always speaks softly and softly, and has never yelled at people so loudly. Pass.Now, since she is not even afraid of death, how can she not dare to spoil others?
Unexpectedly, the feeling of crying out is really comfortable, the feeling of expressing and releasing is something she has never experienced before.
"Huh? You are the one who wants to commit suicide, and you are the one who doesn't want to live. I just followed your wishes. Why are you angry with me?"
The man showed an innocent expression, then folded his arms around his chest and closed his eyes, "You can jump or not, if you didn't come here out of nowhere, I wouldn't have been woken up by your sobbing, and I would have given you to you by accident. Saved. You don’t appreciate me, and I don’t blame you, so please do me a favor and shut your mouth!”
"I--"
Lan Qin was about to refute, but she didn't expect to hear Li Shun's calling from afar——
"Lan Qin, are you here? Quickly answer me—someone saw you coming here, it's pitch black, what are you doing here on the mountain?"
She tensed up all over, and faintly trembled, this look of fear did not escape the eyes of the man in the tree.
"It's over, how did he find it?" Lan Qin stared at the darkness in the distance at a loss, fearing that Li Shun would come here in the dark, and she would be hard-pressed to fly!
Does she really have to choose death to escape?
She shook her head weakly, and walked towards the edge of the cliff again exhausted, and at the same time she was about to jump off, her waist tightened again, but this time she was not bound by a rope, but was held by a strong arm. Lock it up!
Before Lan Qin could react, the man had already held her and jumped up, sitting on the top of a tree.
"Ah—" Lan Qin screamed in fright, and the next moment, the other party covered her mouth, signaling her not to move!
She froze and didn't even dare to move. The close distance made it impossible for her to smell his rough man's body odor, and her face became hotter!
"I..." She deliberately avoided him.
"Don't move, or I don't care if it falls and hits someone else's head." The man put aside the corners of his mouth and teased her, but his hands around her waist were tightened even more.
Before Lan Qin understood what he meant, she heard the sound of footsteps coming from below. Under the weak light, she saw that the leader was Li Shun!Unexpectedly, it was so late, and someone saw her climbing this mountain?
"Lanqin... where are you? Come out!" Li Shun climbed the mountain, already tired and thirsty, and his voice was even more impatient and rude.
Lan Qin, who was sitting on the tree, kept her whole body still, with cold sweat constantly breaking out from her back, afraid of being discovered by Li Shun.
"You are really too, why bother to guard your body for my cousin? How nice it is to marry me again! You can eat, drink, and wear whatever you want, and there are many other houses for you to live in. I don't even want I despise your bastard... bah bah bah! Why do you still hide?" Li Shun raised his voice and seemed to have reached the edge of the flames.
Not only Lan Qin was shocked, even the man next to her seemed to be stunned for a moment, and the arm that locked her waist was obviously loose, as if to keep a distance from her.
Lan Qin shook, and almost shouted, the man suddenly tightened his arms again, causing Lan Qin to fall into his arms unbalanced, and his small mouth stuck to the artery on the side of his manly neck!
"Everyone look for me, I don't believe she has grown wings and flew away. Find it quickly! Don't let go of every corner." Li Shun gave the order coldly, and the group of men he brought immediately separated to search.
Lan Qin was held by that man's side, not only unable to move, but also trembling frequently, he could no longer imagine what fate he would fall into?
If she is captured by Li Shun, she is destined to be his concubine, and she will get an ugly name of remarriage. If she is lucky not to be discovered, and at this moment she is skin-to-skin with this strange man, wouldn't it be clear that her chastity is gone? Defiled?
No matter how she walked, it seemed to be wrong, and suddenly, a feeling of bewilderment hit her heart, which made her shed tears no longer.
After a while, Li Shun's subordinates came back to report. "Sir, Uncle Li, we searched through every plant of grass and every inch of land here, but we didn't even see a single person."
"Hmph! I don't believe that woman is so good at running away, go and find me again!" Li Shun refused to give up, and the anger in his eyes burned even hotter.
"Yes."
After a while, another group of people came back, "Master Li, we searched the other end, but we still didn't see Miss Lan."
Li Shun clenched his fists, "What a rotten bitch!" He had a fierce look in his eyes, "When I find her, I have to teach her a lesson."
Upon hearing this, Lan Qin shivered violently, and unconsciously snuggled into the man's arms.
"Look, here is a broken doll with embroidery on it!" The illiterate servant immediately handed the doll to Li Shun.
Li Shun's eyes widened immediately when he saw it, the embroidered characters on it were "Qin"!
"She...couldn't she have jumped off a cliff?" He murmured to himself.
"Then shall we continue to search?" one of the men asked.
"Forget it, let's go! Let's go down to the valley to have a look after dawn. Even if she dies, I still want to see the corpse!"
He growled angrily.
Sitting high on the top of the tree, Lan Qin was relieved to watch Li Shun leave with a large group of people, and hung on the strange man weakly.
"Hey! Are you sticking to me too tightly? Aren't you afraid that I will lose control?"
The man's magnetic voice suddenly rang in her ears, making her tense again after she had finally relaxed.
Lan Qin pushed him away and muttered, "I didn't mean it, why are you uttering obscene words?"
"I utter obscenity?"
The man rolled his eyes and said quite innocently: "Girl, I saved you again, you still scold me for being troublesome, don't you? I think those people have gone away, and you should go home and find a husband."
Nephrite and Wenxiang are hugging, although the concave and convex lines that cling to him stimulate his senses all the time, but he, Shuo Aoshu, is not a man who likes to flirt with married women!
"I don't have a husband anymore..." She sighed faintly.
"No more?" Shuo Aoshu suddenly remembered that the man called "Uncle Li" had said the word "guard his body" just now! "Oh! So you're a widow?"
"No..." Lan Qin wept bitterly, "That's right!"
He frowned slightly, unable to understand her confused words; he simply hugged her waist and jumped down——
"Ah——" Lan Qin was startled, still in shock, her feet had already stepped on the ground.
"Stop barking. It's getting late, I should leave, and I don't have time to do anything to you."
Shuo Aoshu flicked the dust off his body, "From now on, you have to rely on yourself, beware of those people just now, understand?"
He reminded her blankly, and left without looking back.
It was because they were too close just now, and he still had the scent of her fragrance in his nostrils. He was afraid that he would not be able to control the original needs in his body, and would do something that he regretted.Besides, he still has a lot of things to do, and he doesn't want to cause trouble when he is free!
The moonlight elongated his figure, Lan Qin stared blankly at his slender body, thinking, is it because he knew her identity that his attitude towards her changed?Why does everyone hate her for being a widow?
But the world is so big, where is her shelter?
??
"Grandpa, you are back."
In the first-class room of "Lailai Inn", a man about 40 years old, Yu Kai, immediately stepped forward to greet Shuo Aoshu when he saw him, with a relaxed expression on his face.
Prince Shuo of "Zhenshuo Prince's Mansion" has disappeared since he came to Hangzhou. He sent a lot of guards to look for him, but there was still no news after searching for a whole day, which made him worry all night.
Thinking of Yu Kai, who killed countless enemies on the battlefield, and never blinked an eye when encountering many crises, only meeting this young master took him a lot of effort.However, this does not mean that Shuo Aoshu is not capable enough, on the contrary, he is more courageous and farsighted than his father, and he is a rare and rare genius.
But Shuo Ao wrote to the current emperor, Yu Gong was his assistant, and in private, the two were in harmony with each other, and they had the status of cousins, and they treated each other with sincerity.
At only 23 years old, he is not only a prince, but also specially named Qilin Gong by the emperor, which is equivalent to a high-ranking official who is under one person and above ten thousand people.Because of this, his safety is more valued, but he just doesn't like to be restrained, and hates the feeling of being followed, so he often slips out of everyone's sight when the guards are not paying attention, and wants to go sightseeing.
For the prince's sudden disappearance, Yu Kai had been busy for most of the night, and now that the prince finally showed up, he was also relieved.
"Look at your haggard face, are you up for sleep?" Shuo Aoshu smiled casually.
"It's not just that I didn't sleep well alone." Yu Kai couldn't help shaking his head and sighing.
"What a fuss!" He snorted coldly, "Since I came here to buy the empress dowager's hair embroidery products by the emperor's order, why don't I visit the famous places along the way!"
"You can let me know if you want to visit, and I can go with you!" Yu Kai said disapprovingly.
"Oh! You won't understand the joy of being alone." Just like just now, didn't he just meet that heart-warming woman?
"I don't understand, but the safety of the Lord—"
"Okay! Yu Kai, it's not that I don't know martial arts, and you know my skills very well. Even you, a general, can only draw with me. Why do you bother with mediocrity?"
He smiled handsomely, waved off his gown, sat on a chair, and was about to pour tea for himself, but was snatched by Yu Kai to do it.
"It's true, but it's important to be on guard against others, so it's better to be on guard." Yu Kai put hot tea on the table in front of Shuo Aoshu.
"You mean those who covet my position?" Shuo Aoshu curled his lips indifferently.
"Some people have always disliked you, I'm worried..."
"Don't worry, I have my own plans in mind." He frowned.
"By the way, everything that needs to be done has been done, and it's time for us to return to Beijing." Yu Kai reminded him, thinking that it would be safer to return home as soon as possible, at least the prince would not run around.
"Alright, then let's set off tomorrow!" Shuo Aoshu rarely complied with Yu Kai's wishes.
"Yes, this subordinate will prepare now." Yu Kai said happily.
"Wait, I heard that the beauties in Jiangnan are so beautiful. Before I leave, I want to go to the Red Chamber." Shuo Aoshu smiled, and suddenly felt the urge to bury his head in the gentle village to vent his desire.
This urge seemed to have arisen suddenly after touching that strange woman just now... Damn, it was so dark just now, he didn't even see the woman's face clearly.
He fell in love with a woman who didn't know her face, did he, Shuo Shuao, recover from life?
When Yu Kai heard it, he hesitated for a moment...
"Ha... Since you're feeling itchy, let's go together! Don't wrong yourself." Shuo Aoshu laughed loudly, making Yu Kai's face blush.
He scratched his head and had to obey.
In particular, Hangzhou has beautiful scenery, and the tranquility of West Lake is famous all over the world.
Of course, there are many wealthy businessmen and high-ranking officials who settled here, and among them, Li Feng, the former Shangshu, is the most eye-catching.

After being scouted by a matchmaker, she fell in love with Lan Qin, the only daughter of the Lan family who lives in Dongxiang.
It is rumored that Lan Qin has the appearance of a closed moon and shameful flowers, and I still feel pity for her delicate posture. If she were to marry Li Yun, it would be a perfect fit.In this way, the prestige of the Li Mansion will not be insulted, and it will not make people laugh at Li Yun, who is lingering and sick, destined to marry a woman without salt.
However, looking at it from another angle, this is very unfair to Lan Qin.
Lan Qin's father, Lan Tianmu, was originally a well-known figure in Hangzhou, but later he failed in business and his family fell into ruin.
When Lan Tianmu was at a loss, he learned the news that Li's mansion took a fancy to his daughter, but he was unhappy and worried.

But Lan Qin was naturally filial and understood that her father was in trouble, and Li Feng also promised them that if she married into Li's mansion, she would guarantee to solve their debt problem.After finally getting such an opportunity, how could she refuse it?
Perhaps, she may not be able to find happiness by marrying into the Li Mansion, but she is used to being self-reliant, and has already developed a reclusive personality. It may not be difficult for her to be the daughter-in-law of the Li family, but the living environment and identity have changed. ,that is it.

"You woman, you actually killed my Yun'er. I thought that marrying you into the mansion would help Yun'er's condition. Who would have known... who would have known that you are the real broom star!"
Lan Qin kept her face down in silence, bearing the pressure from all directions, not because she was unmoved, but because her heart and body were already paralyzed by the pain...
On the day she married into Li Mansion, she discovered that Li Yun's condition was not as simple as the outside world imagined.His complexion was sallow, his figure was emaciated, and he could not speak at all. The only thing that proved that he was still alive was his shallow breath and the occasional cough of blood.
Can such a body really get better because of her entrance?
She didn't believe it... Especially on the day of the wedding, the gongs, drums and pipes were blowing loudly, which would only disturb the patient's rest and make his condition worse.
Sure enough, something was wrong with him the next day, and he dragged on until the third day before he swallowed his last breath.
This incident shocked everyone in Li's house, Master Li fainted because of it, seeing that the red light in his house was hung up three days ago, but now he has to pull up the white curtain, this is indeed a major blow.
After Li Feng fell ill, Madam Li became even more angry and blamed Lan Qin for all her crimes, not only accusing her of being a broom star, but also saying that she was born with a restraint, which was the reason for the decline of the Lan family.
Not only that, but she also forcibly took back a large sum of dowry to Lan Tianmu, and called them the broom family, and Lan Tianmu couldn't bear such insults anymore, so he hanged himself.
After Lan Qin heard the news, she was heartbroken and sad. She never thought that her father would do such a stupid thing, so wouldn't her sacrifice be in vain?
Now, she has become the target of public criticism, she has been rejected by everyone in the Li Mansion, and she is also a girl with a restraint in the mouth of the people in Hangzhou City. How can she be embarrassed by this?
She couldn't help thinking, should she go with her father?
But God was extremely unfair to her, not to mention making her a kefu, and she didn't even have the right to seek death.
Li Yun's death was less than seventy-seven and forty-nine days old, and they used various reasons to drive Lan Qin away. Lan Qin insisted on refusing, thinking that if she left, she would not only be called an abandoned wife, but how could she be worthy of her father's spirit in heaven?
"You go back with Li Shun tomorrow, don't come back again." Madam Li pointed at Lan Qin who was kneeling on the ground, her eyes were as sharp as a knife.
"What?" Lan Qin was bewildered.
"I will treat you kindly." The instigator, Li Shun, is Li Yun's cousin, who has always coveted the wealth and power of the Li family.Ever since Lan Qin got married, he was even more greedy for her beauty.
This is great, Li Yun's life has passed away, as long as he snatches Lan Qin away again, everything in the Li family will belong to him.
"Mother, what do you mean..." Lan Qin's eyes widened suddenly.
"Auntie means to remarry you to me." Li Shun said proudly.
"Ah? No... I will never—" Lan Qin roared out, her expression full of determination and stubbornness without hesitation.
"You are so stupid, it's rare that Li Shun doesn't dislike you, you'd better remarry early, so as not to make me feel bad by staying here." Mother Li snorted coldly.
"Yes, Lan Qin, marry me, and I will love you."
Of course Li Shun understood that Lan Qin was still a piece of white jade, and it was impossible for his ailing cousin to fulfill his husband and wife obligations to her.
Such a beautiful and touching flower, no matter if she is a broom star or a nemesis, he will definitely marry her!When he thought of her naked body being locked under him, his whole body was itchy and hot.
"Stop dreaming, even if I die, I will not remarry you!" She said in a serious voice, her body trembling violently...
Why?Why can't they tolerate her?And make such a cruel decision to her!
"Lan Qin!" Madam Li frowned.
"Mother, how could you do this, do you feel sorry for Li Yun?" Lan Qin's pupils were soaked with tears, showing her tenderness and beauty even more.
"Your temper is really tough, no wonder even your life is so hard. Marrying Li Shun is a redemption for Li Yun. In the future, if you have a son and a half daughter, you can be adopted under Yun'er's knees logically. This is considered a treat for Yun'er." There is an explanation."
Madam Li stared at her without any pretense, not giving her the slightest chance to refute or refuse.
Lan Qin was stunned, not knowing how to refute——
"You mean...I have to remarry?" She asked hoarsely.
"That's right, if you're obedient, you're still from the Li family." Seeing that the plan was about to succeed, Li Shun proudly showed a treacherous smile.
Lan Qin looked up and stared at him for a while, then said: "I don't know when to leave?"
"Auntie, what do you think?" Li Shun pretended to be polite and asked Madam Li's opinion.
"If you want to hurry up, you will set off early tomorrow morning to leave here with Shun'er. It is best to go far away, lest I be swept by the tail of your broom again!" Madam Li said mercilessly.
"In that case, can you let me go back to my mother's house?" She said blankly, as if she had seen everything through and didn't care about any decision.
"It's getting late, okay?" Li Shun hesitated for a while.
"She will soon be yours, and it's up to you to decide." Madam Li couldn't wait to draw a line with Lan Qin.
"I'm just going back to have a look. If you don't let me go, I will never go with you willingly." Lan Qin narrowed his eyes and said.
Seeing her beauty, Li Shun's heart?
He threatened Lan Qin, so that she would know that it was more difficult to escape from his palm than climbing to the sky.
Lan Qin just stared straight ahead in a daze, circling her "way" in her mind.
??
Lan Qin raised her head, looked at the plaque with gold rims hanging high on the door panel, and the four big characters on it that symbolized Deze Yongbei and descendants' prosperity - Lan Xun Guifu, she was really moved Qian, as soon as she recalled the brilliance and glory of the past, everything seemed like yesterday, but now she has fallen to this point.
Her surname is Lan, and her parents have taught her to have a chaste sentiment like Lan Yu since she was a child, but now... Alas!The past is unbearable!
"Lan Qin, hurry up, I'll wait for you outside the house." Li Shun was afraid that the duck would fly away, so he insisted on following him.
She didn't refuse, just nodded silently.
Stepping into the house, she walked straight to the back of the house without hesitation.She first went to her parents' room to have a look, and then went back to her own room to find the doll that had been with her for more than ten years. She still remembered that when she was three years old, her father specially bought it from the capital for her birthday. Gift.
She hugged it, walked out from the back door, and quickly walked through several streets. At night, almost no one noticed her as a woman walking in a hurry.
On the other hand, because she wanted to go where she wanted to go, and she was worried that Li Shun would find out in advance, so she didn't dare to stop at all.When she walked all the way to the foot of He Leng Mountain on the northern edge of Hangzhou, she finally slowed down, thinking that it would be okay even if Li Shun found out that she had escaped, because she was about to leave...
She finally climbed to the top of the mountain, already dripping with sweat and out of breath, but her mood is very calm, because she is about to get rid of the spell of "Broom Star"!
Lan Qin looked at the bottom of the valley. Although it was dark, she knew that the bottom of the valley was full of huge rocks. If she jumped off, she would definitely die on the spot, perhaps without even feeling a little pain.
That's fine, so she won't feel heartache anymore...
Staring at the bottom of the deep valley, she took another step forward, then closed her eyes, took a breath, and was about to jump down, but suddenly a rope was tied around her waist, and she pulled back abruptly, she was anxious Taking a few steps back, he fell to the ground, and the doll in his hand rolled down into the grass beside him!
She was so shocked that she couldn't speak, and looked back with her small mouth slightly open, and suddenly found a man with a smiling face hidden in a big tree, and he was showing a strange expression.
"who are you?"
Lan Qin hurriedly tore off the rope tied around her waist, but she didn't know that the knot was loosened, and the rope returned to the man on the tree as if knowing the way!
"You are young, why can't you think about it? Even if you don't want to live, don't look for this kind of place. Jumping from here will definitely change your face, and to put it more tragically, you will be dead. Why bother?"
The man sitting on the top of the tree smiled coldly. Through the moonlight, she could clearly see that he had neat white teeth, and he was dressed in high-quality silk and satin, which showed that his status was not low.
But where does he not sleep, actually sleeps on a tree?! However, he looks comfortable and at ease, and the corners of his grinning mouth are more like making fun of her timid behavior of not daring to face the future.
"It's none of your business, you don't need to meddle in your own business."
Lan Qin never had a good impression of this kind of flirtatious man, even if he saved her life just now, she couldn't put on a good face towards him.
She had already seen through the ugly face of a man, who looked at her without lust or slyness?It is conceivable that the reason why this man saved her must have no good intentions, so that she would not be deceived again!
Especially when she thought of Li Shun's disgusting eyes with color, she couldn't help but feel hairy all over her body, and she no longer had any feelings for men.
"You are such a vicious woman. I saved you with good intentions. It's fine if you don't appreciate it, but you even uttered evil words... Sigh! Count my efforts as wasted!"
The man closed his eyes and pointed to the bottom of the valley, "Go jump! Don't worry, I will never meddle in my own business this time."
Lan Qin was stunned for a moment, stared at him in disbelief, then turned to look at the edge of the cliff... To tell the truth, if she were to dance again, she might not have the courage just now.
"Why do you want me to dance? I just don't want to dance!" She stamped her feet, shaking off all etiquette, and shouted at the man in the tree.
At this time, her heart was very happy. Since she was a child, her parents have educated her with etiquette, so that she always speaks softly and softly, and has never yelled at people so loudly. Pass.Now, since she is not even afraid of death, how can she not dare to spoil others?
Unexpectedly, the feeling of crying out is really comfortable, the feeling of expressing and releasing is something she has never experienced before.
"Huh? You are the one who wants to commit suicide, and you are the one who doesn't want to live. I just followed your wishes. Why are you angry with me?"
The man showed an innocent expression, then folded his arms around his chest and closed his eyes, "You can jump or not, if you didn't come here out of nowhere, I wouldn't have been woken up by your sobbing, and I would have given you to you by accident. Saved. You don’t appreciate me, and I don’t blame you, so please do me a favor and shut your mouth!”
"I--"
Lan Qin was about to refute, but she didn't expect to hear Li Shun's calling from afar——
"Lan Qin, are you here? Quickly answer me—someone saw you coming here, it's pitch black, what are you doing here on the mountain?"
She tensed up all over, and faintly trembled, this look of fear did not escape the eyes of the man in the tree.
"It's over, how did he find it?" Lan Qin stared at the darkness in the distance at a loss, fearing that Li Shun would come here in the dark, and she would be hard-pressed to fly!
Does she really have to choose death to escape?
She shook her head weakly, and walked towards the edge of the cliff again exhausted, and at the same time she was about to jump off, her waist tightened again, but this time she was not bound by a rope, but was held by a strong arm. Lock it up!
Before Lan Qin could react, the man had already held her and jumped up, sitting on the top of a tree.
"Ah—" Lan Qin screamed in fright, and the next moment, the other party covered her mouth, signaling her not to move!
She froze and didn't even dare to move. The close distance made it impossible for her to smell his rough man's body odor, and her face became hotter!
"I..." She deliberately avoided him.
"Don't move, or I don't care if it falls and hits someone else's head." The man put aside the corners of his mouth and teased her, but his hands around her waist were tightened even more.
Before Lan Qin understood what he meant, she heard the sound of footsteps coming from below. Under the weak light, she saw that the leader was Li Shun!Unexpectedly, it was so late, and someone saw her climbing this mountain?
"Lanqin... where are you? Come out!" Li Shun climbed the mountain, already tired and thirsty, and his voice was even more impatient and rude.
Lan Qin, who was sitting on the tree, kept her whole body still, with cold sweat constantly breaking out from her back, afraid of being discovered by Li Shun.
"You are really too, why bother to guard your body for my cousin? How nice it is to marry me again! You can eat, drink, and wear whatever you want, and there are many other houses for you to live in. I don't even want I despise your bastard... bah bah bah! Why do you still hide?" Li Shun raised his voice and seemed to have reached the edge of the flames.
Not only Lan Qin was shocked, even the man next to her seemed to be stunned for a moment, and the arm that locked her waist was obviously loose, as if to keep a distance from her.
Lan Qin shook, and almost shouted, the man suddenly tightened his arms again, causing Lan Qin to fall into his arms unbalanced, and his small mouth stuck to the artery on the side of his manly neck!
"Everyone look for me, I don't believe she has grown wings and flew away. Find it quickly! Don't let go of every corner." Li Shun gave the order coldly, and the group of men he brought immediately separated to search.
Lan Qin was held by that man's side, not only unable to move, but also trembling frequently, he could no longer imagine what fate he would fall into?
If she is captured by Li Shun, she is destined to be his concubine, and she will get an ugly name of remarriage. If she is lucky not to be discovered, and at this moment she is skin-to-skin with this strange man, wouldn't it be clear that her chastity is gone? Defiled?
No matter how she walked, it seemed to be wrong, and suddenly, a feeling of bewilderment hit her heart, which made her shed tears no longer.
After a while, Li Shun's subordinates came back to report. "Sir, Uncle Li, we searched through every plant of grass and every inch of land here, but we didn't even see a single person."
"Hmph! I don't believe that woman is so good at running away, go and find me again!" Li Shun refused to give up, and the anger in his eyes burned even hotter.
"Yes."
After a while, another group of people came back, "Master Li, we searched the other end, but we still didn't see Miss Lan."
Li Shun clenched his fists, "What a rotten bitch!" He had a fierce look in his eyes, "When I find her, I have to teach her a lesson."
Upon hearing this, Lan Qin shivered violently, and unconsciously snuggled into the man's arms.
"Look, here is a broken doll with embroidery on it!" The illiterate servant immediately handed the doll to Li Shun.
Li Shun's eyes widened immediately when he saw it, the embroidered characters on it were "Qin"!
"She...couldn't she have jumped off a cliff?" He murmured to himself.
"Then shall we continue to search?" one of the men asked.
"Forget it, let's go! Let's go down to the valley to have a look after dawn. Even if she dies, I still want to see the corpse!"
He growled angrily.
Sitting high on the top of the tree, Lan Qin was relieved to watch Li Shun leave with a large group of people, and hung on the strange man weakly.
"Hey! Are you sticking to me too tightly? Aren't you afraid that I will lose control?"
The man's magnetic voice suddenly rang in her ears, making her tense again after she had finally relaxed.
Lan Qin pushed him away and muttered, "I didn't mean it, why are you uttering obscene words?"
"I utter obscenity?"
The man rolled his eyes and said quite innocently: "Girl, I saved you again, you still scold me for being troublesome, don't you? I think those people have gone away, and you should go home and find a husband."
Nephrite and Wenxiang are hugging, although the concave and convex lines that cling to him stimulate his senses all the time, but he, Shuo Aoshu, is not a man who likes to flirt with married women!
"I don't have a husband anymore..." She sighed faintly.
"No more?" Shuo Aoshu suddenly remembered that the man called "Uncle Li" had said the word "guard his body" just now! "Oh! So you're a widow?"
"No..." Lan Qin wept bitterly, "That's right!"
He frowned slightly, unable to understand her confused words; he simply hugged her waist and jumped down——
"Ah——" Lan Qin was startled, still in shock, her feet had already stepped on the ground.
"Stop barking. It's getting late, I should leave, and I don't have time to do anything to you."
Shuo Aoshu flicked the dust off his body, "From now on, you have to rely on yourself, beware of those people just now, understand?"
He reminded her blankly, and left without looking back.
It was because they were too close just now, and he still had the scent of her fragrance in his nostrils. He was afraid that he would not be able to control the original needs in his body, and would do something that he regretted.Besides, he still has a lot of things to do, and he doesn't want to cause trouble when he is free!
The moonlight elongated his figure, Lan Qin stared blankly at his slender body, thinking, is it because he knew her identity that his attitude towards her changed?Why does everyone hate her for being a widow?
But the world is so big, where is her shelter?
??
"Grandpa, you are back."
In the first-class room of "Lailai Inn", a man about 40 years old, Yu Kai, immediately stepped forward to greet Shuo Aoshu when he saw him, with a relaxed expression on his face.
Prince Shuo of "Zhenshuo Prince's Mansion" has disappeared since he came to Hangzhou. He sent a lot of guards to look for him, but there was still no news after searching for a whole day, which made him worry all night.
Thinking of Yu Kai, who killed countless enemies on the battlefield, and never blinked an eye when encountering many crises, only meeting this young master took him a lot of effort.However, this does not mean that Shuo Aoshu is not capable enough, on the contrary, he is more courageous and farsighted than his father, and he is a rare and rare genius.
But Shuo Ao wrote to the current emperor, Yu Gong was his assistant, and in private, the two were in harmony with each other, and they had the status of cousins, and they treated each other with sincerity.
At only 23 years old, he is not only a prince, but also specially named Qilin Gong by the emperor, which is equivalent to a high-ranking official who is under one person and above ten thousand people.Because of this, his safety is more valued, but he just doesn't like to be restrained, and hates the feeling of being followed, so he often slips out of everyone's sight when the guards are not paying attention, and wants to go sightseeing.
For the prince's sudden disappearance, Yu Kai had been busy for most of the night, and now that the prince finally showed up, he was also relieved.
"Look at your haggard face, are you up for sleep?" Shuo Aoshu smiled casually.
"It's not just that I didn't sleep well alone." Yu Kai couldn't help shaking his head and sighing.
"What a fuss!" He snorted coldly, "Since I came here to buy the empress dowager's hair embroidery products by the emperor's order, why don't I visit the famous places along the way!"
"You can let me know if you want to visit, and I can go with you!" Yu Kai said disapprovingly.
"Oh! You won't understand the joy of being alone." Just like just now, didn't he just meet that heart-warming woman?
"I don't understand, but the safety of the Lord—"
"Okay! Yu Kai, it's not that I don't know martial arts, and you know my skills very well. Even you, a general, can only draw with me. Why do you bother with mediocrity?"
He smiled handsomely, waved off his gown, sat on a chair, and was about to pour tea for himself, but was snatched by Yu Kai to do it.
"It's true, but it's important to be on guard against others, so it's better to be on guard." Yu Kai put hot tea on the table in front of Shuo Aoshu.
"You mean those who covet my position?" Shuo Aoshu curled his lips indifferently.
"Some people have always disliked you, I'm worried..."
"Don't worry, I have my own plans in mind." He frowned.
"By the way, everything that needs to be done has been done, and it's time for us to return to Beijing." Yu Kai reminded him, thinking that it would be safer to return home as soon as possible, at least the prince would not run around.
"Alright, then let's set off tomorrow!" Shuo Aoshu rarely complied with Yu Kai's wishes.
"Yes, this subordinate will prepare now." Yu Kai said happily.
"Wait, I heard that the beauties in Jiangnan are so beautiful. Before I leave, I want to go to the Red Chamber." Shuo Aoshu smiled, and suddenly felt the urge to bury his head in the gentle village to vent his desire.
This urge seemed to have arisen suddenly after touching that strange woman just now... Damn, it was so dark just now, he didn't even see the woman's face clearly.
He fell in love with a woman who didn't know her face, did he, Shuo Shuao, recover from life?
When Yu Kai heard it, he hesitated for a moment...
"Ha... Since you're feeling itchy, let's go together! Don't wrong yourself." Shuo Aoshu laughed loudly, making Yu Kai's face blush.
He scratched his head and had to obey.
