An Empire as a Betrothal Gift

Early the next morning, Lin Yan'er yawned and went downstairs slowly: "Good morning."

Xiao Wen sobered up, Wei Lian's added information successfully made his memory confused, he only remembered that he was hurt last night and used alcohol to drown his sorrows, and completely forgot that Wei Lian had come.

He lowered his head and ate without saying a word, with the breath of "I'm sad don't come near me" lingering all over his body.

Ji Yue distributed a steaming meat bun to Wei Lian: "Eat more." Those who traveled all the way lost weight.

Wei Lian put the steamed stuffed bun in a bowl, raised his head and said to Lin Yan'er, "Good morning, Miss Lin."

Lin Yan'er opened the stool and sat down, grabbed a pancake from the table: "I haven't eaten the unique scallion pancake in Liang country for many years."

Ji Yue was not sensitive to the dark dish full of chives, such as scallion pancakes.

Lin Yan'er chewed the scallion pancakes with relish, and said casually: "Now that we have arrived in Liang Kingdom, we can separate. From now on, the road will go to the sky, thank you for your companionship all the way."

Xiao Wen raised his head immediately and asked nervously, "Where are you going?"

Lin Yan'er rolled her eyes: "It's none of your business—"

"I also want to ask." Wei Lian said warmly.

Lin Yan'er changed her words in an instant: "Munch Eumlizi Halbasa City."

Xiao Wen: "What?"

"The city of Monk Eumlizi Harbosa."

Ji Yue: "Say it again."

"Meng Ke Wu Mu Li Zi... Forget it, it's the first city, the capital of the Kingdom of Liang." Lin Yan'er finally realized that the three pure-blood Central Plains people present couldn't understand what she was saying in Southern Xinjiang The name of the city.

Wei Lian said, "Coincidentally, we're going there too."

"Aren't you going out to travel around? If you want to see the scenery of a foreign country, it's enough to play in this border." Lin Yan'er said, "It's better to seldom go to Wangcheng. They very much reject foreigners."

"It's all here, if you don't go to the capital, how can you gain knowledge?" Wei Lian said.

Lin Yan'er thought for a while: "You can go if you want, the servants can't control it. But then you have to change into the clothes of Liang Guo. This is the border, and they won't care much when they see foreigners. Those places don't necessarily Yes. Also, it’s best to wear a mask to cover your face. The girls in Liang Guo are much more unrestrained than the girls in the Central Plains. When they meet a boy they like, they will confess their love in the street and even rush to hug him. Mr. Lang looks so good-looking, If you don't hide your appearance, all the girls in the street will chase you."

Wei Lian nodded, "Thank you for the reminder."

"Also, while you're still in the Seventh City, go to the bank and exchange the money into Liang coins. Copper coins are not common in Liang."

Wei Lian wondered: "...we don't know where the bank is."

"It's the one with this symbol on the door." Lin Yan'er dipped her fingertips in the tea and drew a pattern of Liang coins on the table.

Wei Lian: "Huh?"

Seeing the bewildered look, Lin Yan'er sighed: "Forget it, forget it, you guys don't understand Liang Wen, so it's inconvenient to go all the way. Anyway, we're going the same way, so let's go to Wangcheng with you." Wangcheng is so big. , It's the same when we get there and part ways.

When the time comes, they will go to see their flowers, and she will avenge her.

After that, they went to the bank to exchange coins, and went to the tailor shop to change into Liang Guo's clothes.

Dressing up in an exotic style is also a challenge.Liang Guo's clothing is not as soft and silky as the Central Plains silk and satin, and the styles and patterns are not elegant, mainly animal hair and leather.The same attire looks like a rough guy on an ordinary man, but Wei Lian looks like a gentle and handsome prince of a foreign race.Compared with the original dignified and elegant, it is more heroic.

When she came out from behind the curtain, all the girls in the clothing store looked at her with astonishment.

Originally, this young man dressed in Central Plains was very eye-catching, but unexpectedly changed into Liang Guo's costume, and he was as handsome as a god descending from the earth.

"Could it be that some prince is here?"

"So handsome, I want to marry."

"..."

Even if he couldn't understand the Southern Xinjiang language, the fiery gaze was still real.Ji Yue's face darkened, and he dragged Wei Lian out of the shop, bought a mask on the side of the road and put it on Wei Lian's face.

Wei Lian took off the mask in disgust: "Couldn't it be revenge for the green ghost mask I put on you?"

On the night of Shangyuan, Ji Yue put a white fox mask on Wei Lian, laughed and said that he was a little fox, Wei Lian immediately returned him a ghost mask, saying that he was the King of Hades.

Now the face that Ji Yue gave Wei Lian happened to be a ferocious ghost face.

Ji Yue lowered his head, and only then did he see the mask clearly.He just didn't like Wei Lian being coveted by others, he just wanted to quickly hide his face so that no one could see him, he really didn't pay attention to this.

Ji Yue said, "I'm going to change to a nice one."

"Forget it, don't bother." Wei Lian put on the mask again indifferently, "Let's go."

They continued on their way.

Liang Guo is also very big, and it still takes a month to go from the seventh city to the first city.

Speaking of the three-month period, they have to spend two months on the road, and the real time left for them is only one month.

Wei Lian was not sure whether he could find the person who cast the curse and kill him within a month.

But these worries and heaviness are all in his heart, and he will not show them.

In contrast, Xiao Wen's melancholy was clearly written on his face.Lin Yan'er went all the way to attract bees and butterflies, and if she fell in love with someone, she would go up and invite her openly, and most likely the other party would not refuse.Xiao Wen's heart was bleeding when he saw it, but he didn't have the position to step forward to stop it.

Ji Yue and Wei Lian agreed that he was miserable.

In the blink of an eye, it was July [-]th.

July [-]th is the Ghost Festival, which has a more straightforward name called Ghost Festival.Many people in the Central Plains believe in Taoism, and they regard Tianguan, Diguan and Shuiguan as the three gods.On the [-]th day of the first lunar month, the heavenly official blesses people, the earth official forgives sins on the [-]th day of the seventh month, and the water official relieves people from misfortune on the [-]th day of the October month.These three gods are enshrined with incense and fire in the world, and are extremely revered.

But this has nothing to do with Liang Guo.The whole country of Liang believes in witch gods, and secondly loves flower gods, which is not the same belief as the people of the Central Plains.Therefore, the [-]th day of July is just a very common day in Liang Guo, and there are still people coming and going on the streets at night, and there is no taboo to stay behind closed doors to avoid running into ghosts at night.

Ji Yue and Wei Lian closed the door and went to bed early to rest.Of course, they are not afraid of ghosts, but as strangers, they have nowhere to stay except inns.It takes a lot of energy to just go on the road in a day, so there is no time to hang out outside.

It's been like this every day.I found a place to rest late at night, got up before dawn and continued on my way, without the energy to do anything else.Even the joy of fish and water, they only do it occasionally.Wei Lian felt quite admiration for Lin Yan'er, who was able to live a lively life in the daytime.

... This woman's energy seems to be much better than his.

Once before, Wei Lian was very tired at night, and the next day he rode with Ji Yue, and he really didn't even have the strength to ride a horse.Lin Yan'er's eyes were excited and ambiguous, while Xiao Wen's eyes were clear and envious.

There were four people in a group, one changed men every day, and the other two digested internally, as long as he could see but not eat, it was really a knife to the heart.

Lin Yan'er was different, no matter how crazy she was, the next day she seemed to be fine, refreshed, even better.

On the contrary, when she can't find a man, she will feel depressed.

Wei Lian felt a little strange.

...His physical strength is so abundant, the exhaustion along the road and Ji Yue's occasional demands are a bit unbearable.Lin Yan'er is a woman with mediocre martial arts, why doesn't she feel tired?

But he didn't bother to ask such a thing.

After all, Lin Yan'er could speak out about matters between the beds, but he didn't have the face to mention them.

Tonight, Wei Lian privately shared this doubt with Ji Yue.

Ji Yue thought for a moment, and said, "Perhaps, she has practiced some kind of kung fu. Isn't the Jianghu Saintess Palace just practiced some kind of evil kung fu, relying on picking up yang and nourishing yin to improve the kung fu?"

Wei Lian said: "I think with Lin Yan'er's personality, she shouldn't do things that harm others and benefit herself."

Ji Yue reminded him: "Don't forget, she only has sex with every man once."

"Is it really because you like the new and hate the old and don't turn back?" Ji Yue said calmly, "Maybe it's because too many times will be harmful to men, so she stops in time like this every time."

Wei Lian frowned: "I still feel that she won't do things that rely on this method to practice martial arts. Her martial arts are not high."

"It's not necessarily for improving martial arts." Ji Yue said, "Some martial arts will suffer backlash after practicing, and she may... rely on this to continue her life."

"But she said that she is dissolute by nature, and she doesn't seem reluctant, on the contrary, she enjoys it..." Wei Lian is extremely sensitive to people's emotions, and can tell that Lin Yan'er is not lying.She really doesn't have any difficulties, and really regards bed affairs as fun.

She also really didn't like Xiao Wen.

After Wei Lian finished speaking, he suddenly paused, as if he suddenly understood something.

"It seems that you have also thought of it." Ji Yue saw his expression and smiled, "Ah Lian said that Lin Yan'er suffers from dissociative disease."

Seven years ago, when Xiao Wen first met Lin Yan'er, that Lin Yan'er said that she hated things between men and women very much.

Although I have never experienced it, I just instinctively feel disgusted.

Why does she hate something she has never experienced so much?

She really...hasn't she experienced it?

Wei Lian said slowly: "If a woman is clean and self-sufficient, but her body has to live with different men for some reason, and is controlled by lust, then every day of her life will be a painful thing for her."

But pain doesn't mean she wants to die.

"And when the pain is unbearable, she will split into a new personality to replace her to bear these memories of having fun with others and the longer-lasting pain in the future."

"I've always felt that Lin Yan'er is different from ordinary people." Wei Lian thought, "She used to spy on us... Normal people can't do that."

It is true that there will be people in the world who are obscene and intentionally peeping, but Lin Yan'er is obviously not.

She's just pure...without shame.

This is not derogatory, but an objective fact.

She is just a sub-personality, born to bear the pain of the main personality, her personality is not sound.Compared with a complete normal person, she lacks two very important points - shame and true feelings.

The main character has shame and self-esteem, and she is extremely disgusted with her uncontrollable body, and the intercourse with different men also makes her feel painful and disgusting.In this case, she had a strong fantasy that she could get rid of her shame and feel less uncomfortable.

And so, in response to her needs, a naturally dissolute, sentimental, and most ruthless personality was born to take it all on her behalf.

——This is also in line with one of the dissociative disorders: the appearance of the secondary personality is to protect the main personality.

The real Lin Yaner is from Liang, and her experience in Liang State was not very good, so even after the split personality, the main personality lost that unpleasant memory, but she still resented her hometown very much, subconsciously hated men and women even more Things.

The main personality probably knew the existence of the sub-personality. The phrase "she is coming" she said back then was a premonition that the sub-personality was about to control the body, so she left the valley overnight.She didn't want that dissolute personality to be with Xiao Wen.

"This personality is naturally dissolute, and he needs men very much and enjoys it. It just so happens that this body also needs it, and it fits well enough. Coupled with the main character's evasive psychology, gradually, this Lin Yan'er now occupies the dominance of the body. This Lin Yan'er Yan'er probably didn't know the existence of the main personality, or even knew that she was just a sub-personality." Wei Lian analyzed, "The main personality is unwilling to show up, probably because she now has a sweetheart——Xiao Wen. She has no face For Xiao Wen, I feel that my body is not good enough for him."

"This Lin Yan'er said that she is the daughter of a spice merchant, a native of the Central Plains, and once settled in the Kingdom of Liang. She is not lying. The secondary personality will have a complete memory. What she said is what she thinks is the truth." Wei Lian said, "But Actually not."

The real Lin Yan'er is a native of Liang.

"To untie the bell, you need the person who tied it. If we want to lure out the real Lin Yan'er through hypnosis, we need to grasp her weakness."

"Her weakness is Xiao Wen."
