Chapter 230: The Past (2)

Eight years ago, not long after Lan Mingyu took over as the city lord, there was a disaster in the city, the harvest was very poor, and Tianyi City was not rich. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info even if Lan Mingyu took out the food in the house for disaster relief, it was not a long-term solution.

During that time, she watched Lan Mingyu become more and more sad, and her face was full of sadness all day long. He was born as the son-in-law of the city lord's mansion, and he had no worries about food and clothing, and he never encountered difficulties in money. Now that such a big thing has happened, he can't think of a way, so he can only apply to the imperial court for disaster relief food.

But it also takes time to wait for the imperial court's approval, which may not be a month or two months. They can't put all their hopes on relief food. But the food of the City Lord's Mansion could not last long.

The wealthy families closed their doors and refused to produce food, but the price of food in the cities soared. The people's lives are even more difficult, even if the city lord's mansion goes out to buy grain, it can't stand up to such high food prices.

Peony is a flower demon, although she understands some worldliness with Lan Mingyu, but she is still a demon by nature. Although she felt sorry for Lan Mingyu, those people were just ordinary mortals in her eyes. Heaven is like this, this is their fate, and Peony looks on coldly.

Peony has never deceived Lan Mingyu, so when the two of them talk, they always have different ideas. Lan Mingyu doesn't understand why Peony is so indifferent to human life, just like Peony doesn't understand why Lan Mingyu cares about those mortals, this is a destiny set by heaven, just follow it.

Because of the different identities of the two, they thought differently, and in a quarrel, Lan Mingyu, who had drunk too much, even said something like 'not my race, his heart must be different', which made Peony feel particularly cold.

But the next day, Lan Mingyu apologized to Peony, and seeing the various peonies blooming in the garden where Peony lived, Lan Mingyu suddenly had an idea!

Lan Mingyu sold the scarce peonies to the wealthy families in the city, and then earned a large amount of grain from the rich families and squires, so that Lan Mingyu could continue to provide disaster relief.

Peony knew what Lan Mingyu had done, and was in her feelings for him, and Peony acquiesced to Lan Mingyu's behavior. Not only that, but she also differentiated more peony flowers, hoping to help Lan Mingyu.

Peony is the king of flowers, and she is a peony cultivation formation, with her cultivation, it is not difficult to differentiate other peonies. Because plants and trees are living like spirits, the most important thing is the body, and once the body is damaged, it cannot be repaired.

Therefore, the grass and trees that have cultivated to the essence will hide their own essence, and then conjure up hundreds or even thousands of them to hide their own essence. It's just that this kind of behavior and its loss of cultivation, because those peony flowers are all condensed by peony cultivation.

Lan Mingyu didn't know about it, and Peony didn't tell him. In the end, the grain earned from selling peonies still supported the people in the city to rush to the imperial court to provide relief grain.

After solving the problem of disasters, Lan Mingyu's reputation became better and better, and he became more and more prestigious among the people. This made Lan Mingyu, who was a little inferior and helpless at the beginning, instantly full of confidence, and he felt that he had become a good city lord.

Later, seeing the poverty of Baixin in the city, Lan Mingyu decided to change the situation of the people and make the people in the city richer. He thought of the peony flower of the peony and had an idea in his heart.

As the king of flowers, peony flowers are deeply loved by dignitaries and nobles, especially those nobles in Beijing, who are willing to spend thousands of gold for a rare peony flower.

Lan Mingyu told Peony his thoughts, and Peony hesitated. Because she knew in her heart that if she continued like this, she would become weaker and weaker. The differentiated peony is the differentiation of her cultivation, a small part is fine, if there are more, no matter how much she cultivates, I am afraid that she will not be able to survive.

She wanted to explain the reason to Lan Mingyu, but Lan Mingyu mistakenly thought that she despised human life and refused to pay for the people in the city. Immediately, the two fell into a cold war again, and it seemed that as long as Peony didn't agree, he wouldn't be ready to see Peony.

Peony thought a lot, thinking that if it wasn't for him in his previous life who rescued her, she wouldn't have been able to reach her current cultivation, and it was he who helped him get through the catastrophe. Now that Lan Mingyu is in difficulty, she should repay the kindness, and she should repay the original kindness, even if it dissipates in heaven and earth, she should repay it.

Now that she figured it out, Peony told Lan Mingyu that she agreed. Lan Mingyu was naturally very happy when he heard about it, and he was in love with her again. It's just that Peony's heart is a little cold, Lan Mingyu is not only her benefactor, but also her beloved.

If it was just a benefactor, Peony would not have the slightest hesitation, but Lan Mingyu was her lover, but he treated her like this, which was a little chilling.

Lan Mingyu also seemed to understand that he had gone too far, and gave her the identity of a peony fairy, let her enjoy the 'incense offering', and let her dedication and reputation be remembered by the people.

This made Peony's heart feel a little better, and in order to please her, he also changed Tianyi City to Peony City. She said that this was her city, and the people in the city were naturally her people, and she should shelter them.

Peony agreed, and she promised that as long as she was still there, the peony flowers in Peony City would always bloom undefeated, which was the protection she gave to the people.

This is eight years, and in the past eight years, her relationship with Lan Mingyu has become weaker and weaker, perhaps because she is a demon. She didn't give birth to an heir, in fact, she knew in her heart that it wasn't that she couldn't give birth, but that Lan Mingyu didn't let her give birth.

She also agreed, the combination of shemales is intolerable, if she gives birth to an heir, she is afraid that this child will be miserable for a lifetime, which she does not want. So even if she knew what Lan Mingyu was doing, she acquiesced. Until the past two years, she and Lan Mingyu were obviously in the City Lord's Mansion together, but they rarely met.

Lan Mingyu always said that he was very busy, but she could hear the gossip in the mansion, she had married into the city lord's mansion for more than ten years, but nothing came out. If the lord of the city has no heirs, it will cause more and more criticism.

She originally believed in Lan Mingyu, and she believed that even if Lan Mingyu's relationship with her faded, she would not lose her.

It wasn't until a few days ago that she heard Lan Mingyu's nurse say that she had leaked her mouth, and she knew that Lan Mingyu and the nurse's daughter were childhood sweethearts, and now they have a husband and wife, probably after the Peony Festival, they will carry the woman into the house. Because that woman is already pregnant, it must not be long before she gives birth to Lan Mingyu's heir.

But these Lan Mingyu didn't tell her, and even protected the woman to the death, as if he was afraid that she would be unfavorable to the woman.

Peony wants to laugh very much, she is a flower demon, she doesn't like blood the most, how can she stain innocent blood on her hands?! But Lan Mingyu didn't understand her in the end, just like she didn't understand Lan Mingyu now, the relationship between them finally disappeared and became what she is now.
