When I opened my eyes, it was pitch black.

The pain in my body has not gone away.

"Someone, someone......" His voice was hoarse, and no one answered when he opened his mouth to call the maid.

The satin quilt on my body was very rough and uncomfortable, but it was clear that it was the best in the world. It was not quiet outside, but no one answered my call, and the maids of the night watch were asleep? I serve my mother-in-law at home alone, and I don't have my husband's support, so I don't think it's easy for me to live in this house.

The room is very luxuriously furnished, the bed painted with gold and sandalwood still exudes a faint woody fragrance, and the head of the bed is lit with an unknown variety of spices, smelling and feeling warm and ironing.

Trying to raise my hand, the aftertaste of pain is still there, and now my consciousness and soul are on Zhen's body, using other people's bodies, and I am not very used to it. However, although Zhen's body is weak and sickly, it has not been punished by the thunder, and it is dozens of times healthier and more complete than my crippled body, which is already a luxury that I dare not even think of.

Ninety-nine eighty-one heavenly thunder I was carried down from the dragon platform before I received it, the Jade Emperor was merciful, and asked me to go down in time to remedy the loopholes of the Zhen clan in the world, and the unfinished punishment will be carried out after the reincarnation of the sixth generation.

Legend has it that after the gods used the ancient artifacts, they would leave corresponding marks on their bodies, which were indelible. I didn't believe this rumor before, but now, there is a small red mark in the shape of a bronze mirror on the palm of my left hand, which is faintly hot in the palm of my hand. It shows that I have traveled against the sky, ignoring time and space, and passing through the past and the present.

Close your eyes.

My head hurts, I just woke up, my mind is not clear, and I am vaguely affected by the confusion of time.

After falling from Zhuxiantai, not only my body but also my soul was injured, and I seemed to have forgotten a lot of things from the past. Now the most profound thing is that I fell to Zhuxiantai with bruises all over my body, screaming hoarsely, being scraped by the anger from below, scraping through my throat and cutting my eyes, alone in a desperate situation, such endless pain and despair, such pain and despair that I dare not forget in this life.

If it weren't for the Father's quiet healing and divine protection for me before, I am afraid that half of the three souls and seven spirits will be lost. Desperately struggling, trying my best, and going through how difficult it was to protect a sane and soul-conscious me.

I don't dare to think about it anymore.

I lay on the soft bed and turned my head to see that it was still dawn outside, but I could faintly hear the noise outside. frowned, wanting to recall what would happen now in the chronology of the Si Ming Xing Monarch's life book, but he felt that he couldn't remember anything, about this year, the Cao family's father and son were going to attack the city...... I only know Zhen's life, that is, the record of major events, and I don't know any details of the small things. Therefore, although I have the bottom in my heart, I am still worried.

"Second lady! Second lady! Wake up! "Suddenly, a maid broke into the door, and before I could take a closer look at her, and I didn't look for who she was from Zhen's remaining memories, I was dragged up by her, and this rough action pulled my nerves, and I was completely awake all of a sudden, "Cao Sikong came with the army!" The city has been breached! The city lords have surrendered! Run! ”

So fast?

"Run? Yecheng has been broken, and the Yuan Mansion bears the brunt, where should I flee? I got up quickly, and regardless of whether the order was right or not, I hastily put on my clothes and ran straight out with the flow of people. The servants and women in the house were all running, all of them were flustered and anxious, and they fled with gold and silver and wrapped themselves in a soft bag.

Besides, if I escape, what will happen to the mother-in-law who protects me everywhere and depends on me for her life?

I can't take care of it, I don't know where I'm coming from, let alone where I'm going, but I can't sit still, so I casually pulled a maid with a hurried look and said loudly: "Where is Madame?" What about Mrs. Liu? ”

"The old lady is still in the room......" Before the words were finished, she broke away from my hand and hurried away.

Fortunately, the layout of this mansion was not complicated, and I quickly found the main hall where Mrs. Liu lived, and the house was in a mess, and it was obvious that the valuable ornaments had been looted by the servants of the house. I walked quickly into the hall, knelt down, held the old man's hand, and comforted, "Mother-in-law, how are you?" ”

"What's going on?" The old woman in front of me held my hand tightly with trembling hands, and it seemed that she was frightened, "They say the city is broken? ”

"Yes, mother-in-law, I am afraid that as soon as they enter the city, they will go directly to our house, and now there is nowhere to escape......" I tried my best to comfort the panicked woman, and I could not bear it. She is very good to Zhen, there is no man in the house, only me and her, a mother-in-law and a daughter-in-law depend on each other. Now I really want to be with her.

"What a good thing this is! How can this be born? The old woman was so anxious that tears had fallen, and her wrinkled face was full of worry and panic, and she couldn't hide her panic.

They know what is about to happen, but they can't reveal the heavens. It is written in the book of fate that Mrs. Liu will not die, as long as she sacrifices me...... I took a deep breath and comforted me again and again: "Mother-in-law, mother-in-law, I go and beg them to spare our lives!" ”

"Originally, how could the original let the thieves break through Yecheng!" She was old, had a bad memory, and was already a little delirious. Originally, it was the name of my father-in-law Yuan Shao, but Yuan Shao had passed away the year before last, and now she has been chanting the name of her dead husband, "And Xi'er, why hasn't he come yet!" Is he just leaving us here to face those tiger and wolf gangsters! ”

I couldn't bear it in my heart, so I waited for her to get dressed hastily and carry her out: "Mother-in-law, isn't there still me?" ”

"Child, child...... It's our Yuan family who is sorry for you! Mrs. Liu said and shed tears again, "You don't care about me!" Run away with them! ”

"I can't escape," I shook my head helplessly, the Cao family coveted my beauty, and it was not my fault for attacking the city, but now that the city has been broken, the mountains and rivers are still there, and I am still there, they didn't kidnap me, "Mother-in-law, I will protect you when the time comes, you must do what I say, you know?" ”

"You? ......" Mrs. Liu's expression was complicated, and the surrounding atmosphere was full of sadness. She married Yuan Shao when she was young, and after so many years of vicissitudes, she looked at me as if she had anticipated what was about to happen, "Xi'er is a good boy, and so are you, but you are not each other's lovers......"

"Don't talk about mother-in-law." I looked firm, stroked her gray hair that was not tied up, and now it reached the ground, barely looked decent, slowly shoulder-to-shoulder with her, helped her to the front yard of Yuan's mansion, and patted her hand gently, "Mother-in-law, I protect you." ”

The servants in the family have fled much, the streets after the war are even more depressed, the door of Yuan's mansion is wide open, I help Mrs. Liu and the two kneel together, quietly waiting for fate, waiting for the upcoming verdict.

I knew that it was Cao Pi who was about to enter the door, I knew that he would fall in love with me at first sight, and I knew that I would be coerced by the Cao family to marry him. Everything will go according to the order of the book of orders.

I know when someone who matters dies, and I know how a loved one leaves.

I know my fate, but I can't change it.

I know my sin and pain, but I can't redeem myself.
