His only daughter and granddaughter died, and his most beloved grandson died under his arrow. Although the war with the Northern Zhou was won, Shen Chengzhou was left alone, with nothing left.
At that time, Ling Qingwan had become a wandering soul, wandering in Shen Chengzhou's room with her remaining consciousness.
After her death, the only person in this world worth her remembering was her grandfather.
Shen Chengzhou, who was in very good health and had never been seriously ill, was bedridden overnight. The general's mansion, which was once famous and crowded with people, became more and more deserted day by day.
Ling Qingwan saw this and felt her heart aching as if it was being stabbed by thousands of needles.
All she could do was pray for Shen Chengzhou to get better. At the very least, she hoped that Shen Chengzhou would not continue to suffer like this.
Until one night, a mysterious man dressed in black and wearing a cloak entered Shen Chengzhou's room.
While Shen Chengzhou was sleeping, he grabbed Shen Chengzhou's neck fiercely.
"ah… "
Shen Chengzhou woke up with a start and subconsciously made a sound in his throat.
When Shen Chengzhou saw the man's eyes, his eyes widened.
"Shen Chengzhou, you never thought that one day you would fall into my hands." The man chuckled, looking particularly creepy in this empty night.
Ling Qingwan saw with her own eyes that the man strangled Shen Chengzhou to death. She was angry and hated him, but it was useless. She was already dead.
She couldn't even cry.
In a trance, Ling Qingwan only remembered that the man uttered the name of Li Gu and then left the room.
I didn't expect that after my rebirth, the next time I heard someone mention Lixin Valley was from Yun Gui's mouth.
In her previous life, Ling Qingwan didn't know Yun Gui, nor did she know whether he was a good person or a bad person. But when she heard him say that he was the young master of Lixin Valley, Ling Qingwan decided that no matter what Yun Gui was thinking, she had to stay away from him.
only…
There is still a deadly poison in Wei Xun's body. Now half a year has passed since he left the capital. By the time Wei Xun returns, it will be almost the time when he died in his previous life.
Ling Qingwan couldn't waste any more time.
She didn't want Wei Xun to die.
One is the enemy who killed her loved ones, Ling Qingwan does not want to accept the help of Li Li Valley at all. The other is the man she holds in her heart, Ling Qingwan is willing to travel through mountains and rivers to find a way to save him, and even pay the price of her life.
Ling Qingwan was in a dilemma.
It was late at night and Yun Gui was still not asleep.
Sui'an brought the tea, put it on the table, poured it and handed it to Yungui.
Ever since Yun Gui came back from Ling Qingwan's yard, he has never been in good spirits.
Seeing that Yun Gui ignored him, Sui An had to put down the tea in the cup reluctantly.
"Young Master, why don't you listen to my advice and let's go back." Sui'an's tone was sincere, and he almost knelt down to beg Yungui to go back.
Yun Gui's brows were furrowed.
"So what do you think?" Sui An asked again.
It was obvious that Yun Gui didn't want to go back now. Sui An originally thought that after the quarrel with Ling Qingwan, Yun Gui would let it go.
"Stay for three more days. After three days, if she really doesn't need me, I will return to Li Valley." Yun Gui solemnly promised Sui'an.
Since Yun Gui has said this, Sui An will not try to persuade him any further.
He left the room with a long sigh.
Sui'an has also been with Yungui since childhood. As far as he can remember, Yungui has never been so attentive to a woman before.
But Ling Qingwan was a person who could not be warmed up. Not only did she not appreciate Yun Gui's kindness, she also repeatedly spoke harshly to him.
Sui An became angrier the more he thought about it.
If he wasn't just a servant, Sui'an would have scolded Ling Qingwan.
The next day.
Early in the morning, An Yi got up and ran to the next room to find Ling Qingwan.
At that time, Ling Qingwan was having breakfast.
In order not to disturb An Yi, she specially changed her room to sleep last night.
"Is Wanwan awake?" An Yi rushed in and asked Mingyue who was guarding outside the door.
"To reply to the princess, my lady has been awake for almost half an hour." Mingyue said with a smile.
Mingyue often served Ling Qingwan, so how could she not know that Ling Qingwan and An Yi had a very good relationship. So when An Yi rushed into the room, Mingyue did not stop her.
"Why are you up so early?"
Ling Qingwan had already heard the noise when An Yi was still outside.
"I wanted to come and play with you." An Yi smiled. "And I know you must be awake."
An Yi came to her right after she had packed up, so she definitely hadn't had breakfast yet. Ling Qingwan raised her lips slightly and asked Qiao'er to add a set of bowls and chopsticks for An Yi.
"Wanwan, how about I take you to a nice place later?" An Yi blinked her almond-shaped eyes, looking very playful and cute.
Ling Qingwan's heart melted when she saw An Yi like this.
I have to say, she really can't be strict in front of An Yi.
"Where are you going?" Ling Qingwan asked.
"Down the mountain! There is a small town down the mountain. I heard that it is winter and the town is very lively!" An Yi was very excited. When describing this, she couldn't stop rubbing her hands. She almost stood up and dragged Ling Qingwan down the mountain.
Ling Qingwan knew that since An Yi came to see her so early in the morning, things must not be that simple.
"Why do I remember that although the princess allowed you to come to Tingxue Mountain Villa, she did not allow you to go down the mountain privately?"
As expected, Ling Qingwan would definitely bring up this matter. An Yi thought she could fool Ling Qingwan.
"If I'm with you, it's not private!" An Yi rolled her eyes and changed her words. "Wan Wan, my mother likes you very much. When she heard me say that I want to come here to accompany you, she agreed without hesitation. If you go to the town at the foot of the mountain with me, my mother will definitely not say anything."
An Yi blinked as she spoke and looked at Ling Qingwan pitifully.
"Come to think of it, did Yun Gui come with you yesterday?" Ling Qingwan suddenly asked a question that had nothing to do with what she had just talked about.
"What Yun Gui?" An Yi was puzzled. "Oh, I remember now, it's that handsome man, right?"
Ling Qingwan didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
That day on the street, when she was talking with Yun Gui, An Yi was also beside them. As a result, she only remembered that he was handsome, but she had completely forgotten his name.
"You don't even know his name, and you dare to bring him here?"
"Because he's a good man!" An Yi said to Ling Qingwan solemnly. "The day before yesterday, I was strolling on the street and was accidentally intercepted by some bad guys. He rescued me and beat up those who had touched me."
Could it be that I really misunderstood Yun Gui? Ling Qingwan secretly wondered in her heart.
"Then we chatted for a while, and he told me that he was not from Beijing, but came to Beijing for sightseeing. Now that he had enough fun, he planned to move to another place, but he didn't know where to go. I thought, I just happened to be going to Tingxue Villa, so I invited him to come with me."
An Yi's next words successfully overturned Ling Qingwan's previous guess.
Only An Yi could not see through such blatant seduction and exploitation.
