Her grandfather was particularly strict with her education, not only invited famous people in Jiankang City to teach her, but even personally supervised her to practice calligraphy and the six arts of a gentleman, since the age of three, her entire childhood was spent in a sea of books and whipping, sometimes a little distracted, will be severely punished by her grandfather.

But after each punishment, she could see the love and distress in her grandfather's eyes, until she was eight years old, her grandfather personally sent her to Luofu Mountain, worshiped a hermit master as a teacher, and learned the art of Zhuzi Baijia and Qihuang Xuanyi.

At the age of thirteen, he was driven down the mountain by his master and returned to the Xie family from Luofu Mountain.

Naturally, there is also a reason for her eldest sister Xie Hanyun's gift.

In her previous life, she appeared for the first time in front of many guests and celebrities as the eldest son of the Xie family's hairpin banquet at the eldest sister's hairpin banquet, and since then she has become famous as Xie Ling and among the celebrities, and later won the attention of Emperor Wu of Liang with her own original calligraphy and stargazing and fortune measurement skills, and has since entered the court of Southern Liang.

For the country's auspicious and auspicious people, for the people to pray for rain, Emperor Wu of Liang trusted her for several years, did not want to be old and deaf, listened to the words of the villain, and was suspicious of her and even the Xie family, until her prophecy came true, Hou Jing really took soldiers and horses to attack Taicheng, those people believed her advice, but because she knew that the catastrophe was approaching and did not have time to stop it, and the fate of the collapse of the Southern Liang of Jiankang was attributed to her, and she was compiled as a minister who brought disaster to the country and the people.

When I think about it now, I still feel ridiculous.

However, she really didn't expect that she was obviously dead, and when she opened her eyes again, she actually returned to her youth, if she remembered correctly, she was now on her way back to the Xie family, and at this time, everything in her previous life had not happened.

My grandfather is still alive.

The eldest sister is still alive.

Hou Jingying has not yet come to Nanliang, and the princes of the Xiao family have not yet started to play the game of winning the heir.

What's more, she hasn't met Liancheng yet, so can the regrets left in her previous life be remedied, and whether the mistakes she made can be reversed.

Thinking like this, there was a sudden cry of a night bird in his ears, Xie Ling mourned in his heart, and suddenly remembered something, he couldn't help but push open the doors and windows, looked at Chunhua, and said with a smile: "The moonlight is extremely beautiful tonight, the good night is short, I feel deeply lonely, the moonlit night is sleepless, I wish Xiuyan is good, yes?" ”

Chunhua's face suddenly turned red, and she couldn't help but say in disgust: "Girl, what are you talking nonsense?" ”

Xie Ling smiled brightly, when she smiled, the corners of her lips were slightly curved, and her eyes were full of banter, as if she was boundless autumn water, quite cynical and romantic.

Especially at the moment, he is still dressed in men's clothes, because he is born in a nobleman, even if he only wears the simplest sleeved clothes, he has a kind of outstanding elegance and unattainable luxury that is naturally carved and decorated.

Chunhua couldn't help but feel in turmoil, thinking that she had been attracted by her demeanor, even if she went to Luofu Mountain to accompany her to endure hardships and learn arts, she had no regrets, but one day......

"Really? Then, the cold birds are on the high branches, and the dead forests are singing sad winds. For the joy of haggard, how can you have a good face? Do you know what that means? ”

Chunhua seemed to hear something extraneous at this time, her shyness faded, she hurriedly lowered her eyes, and replied: "No, I don't know what this poem means?" Is this a girl's new work? ”

Xie Ling laughed in his heart, this is not her new work, in the previous life Liang Yuan Emperor Xiao Yi's wife Concubine Xu had an affair with someone, and it was rumored that not only Xiao Yi wrote romantic verses for his wife to show irony, but even many people in the folk wrote articles with this, leaving a lot of "splendid poems", this midnight Wu song is a true portrayal of Concubine Xu's bold courtship, but unfortunately after this poem spread in Jiankang City, those young sisters-in-law not only did not take it as a warning, but regarded it as a kind of natural indulgence beauty advocated in Zhuang Lao's metaphysics.

At the time of turmoil, etiquette and religion were abolished, the north and south were still the style of metaphysics since the Wei and Jin dynasties, advocating natural indulgence, and being ambitious, the sisters-in-law took off the shackles of etiquette and religion, and even learned the indulgent behavior of those celebrities, boldly pursuing beauty and beauty, and some even disregarded the name and festival in order to get a night of joy.

And this Chunhua has become one of the festivals that disregard the name.

The Xie family is not like the wanton absurdity in the royal family, although they have learned the mysterious style of the world, but the accumulated heritage of generations of scholars has not made them forget the etiquette, righteousness and shame in Confucianism, and my grandfather often used Confucianism to educate his sons and nephews, so that they should not forget the foundation of human nature and morality.

A debauchery like Concubine Xu is naturally subject to contempt and criticism.

"There's nothing wrong with liking someone, but if the goddess has a heart, and King Xiang has no intention of ......" Halfway through speaking, seeing Chunhua's face slightly pale, Xie Ling paused again, "Since you have been with me for so long, if you want to marry someone in the future, I will prepare a dowry for you, but I don't like people sneaking behind my back to do ghost worship, can you remember?" ”

Chunhua's face turned paler, and he replied respectfully: "Yes." He said with a smile, "However, Chunhua has to serve girls all her life, and Chunhua is unwilling to marry." ”

Xie Ling smiled, stopped talking, and only raised his hand to signal: "Go down!" It's late at night, you can sleep well, and tomorrow morning, we will set off back to Jiankang. ”

"Yes."

Chunhua bent her knees again, and Yu Guang glanced at the blue-glazed porcelain bowl on the desk intentionally or unintentionally, as if she wanted to bring it over, but seeing that Xie Ling's eyes were dignified and seemed to be staring at her, she hurriedly retreated.

The pretty back was soon drowned in the twilight.

Xie Ling glanced back at the tea bowl on the table, then walked up to Qiu Shi, who was lying on the ground and was asleep behind the screen, and patted Qiu Shi's cheek with his hand dipped in cold water until he woke her up.

Qiu Shi opened her sleepy eyes, and the face that caught her eye at first glance was her master Xie Ling, and she hurriedly stood up and said, "I'm sorry, Lang Jun, I'm ...... Eh, how did I fall asleep? ”

"I don't blame you, the wine you drank was drugged, and if no one called you, you might sleep for two days and two nights without waking up."

Qiu Shi's expression tightened: "Drug, when did I drink alcohol?" Who drugged me? After this series of self-questions, her eyes suddenly flashed, as if she had just remembered something, but she couldn't believe it, "Is it Chunhua?" But she ...... Why did she drug me? ”

Xie Ling didn't answer her, but walked to the desk, sprinkled some powder into the blue-glazed porcelain bowl, and said, "Come and see." ”

Qiu Shi didn't know why, so he walked a few fronts, but saw a transparent worm floating in the bowl, and the worm was still wriggling, looking like his scalp was numb.

"Lang Jun, what is this?" Qiu Shi's expression couldn't help but change greatly, and he asked in horror.

When he saw this Gu worm with his own eyes, Xie Ling was also a little stunned, frowning and pondering for a while before replying: "This is a love Gu, which Chunhua prepared to drink for me after you fell asleep." ”

"Love Gu?"

"Yes, love Gu, it is said that if someone feeds this Gu worm with his own blood, and then resides this Gu worm in the heart of the lover he loves, he can make that person can't help but fall in love with himself, so those Miao people call it a love Gu."

Qiu Shi's face changed greatly: "There are such harmful things in this world? …… But why did she want to give Lang Jun a love Gu in this Chunhua, could she ...... This little girl is really ridiculous. ”

Thinking that Chunhua wanted to use this Gu worm to get Xie Ling's heart, Qiu Shi stomped his feet a little ridiculously, others didn't know that Lang Jun was actually a girl, but the two of them knew.

"It's not her ......"

Xie Ling muttered, Qiu Shi looked at her puzzled, and listened to her say, "It's someone else." ”

In her previous life, she had seen the introduction of "Love Gu" in the "Treatise on Miscellaneous Diseases" left by her master, and she thought that this kind of statement of using Gu worms to control people's emotions was ridiculous.

But now that I think about it, there are no strange things in the world, and this kind of thing is probably possible, because in her previous life, that is, after she returned to the Xie family when she was thirteen years old, it didn't take long for her to inexplicably suffer from heart palpitations, she always thought that she was just inheriting her father's short life, but Chen Shuo found her, saying that he had found a strange prescription, and was willing to use the blood of his heart to cure her illness.

It is also strange to say that every time her heart is like an ant and an insect bites and the pain is unbearable, the pain will be alleviated when she sees Chen Shuo.

Grandfather also thought that she was in love with Chen Shuo and suffered from lovesickness, although he did not like Chen Shuo, who was born in a poor family, but still promised to set her marriage with Chen Shuo after she recovered as a daughter.

If it weren't for the fact that she met Liancheng later, and Liancheng discovered the strangeness on her body, and Liancheng used her own blood to lure out the Gu worms in her body, she wouldn't have believed it.

I don't believe that Chen Shuo offered her affection in every possible way, and did not hesitate to harm himself repeatedly, just to offer her a good medicine that could cure her heartache, but in fact, it was just a trap he had set for her a long time ago.

She didn't even expect that in fact, this trap had already been set on her way back to the Xie family.

"Someone else?" At this time, Qiu Shi was still muttering incomprehensibly.

Xie Ling asked: "Qiu Shi, why did I settle here, why did I sleep here for three days?" I don't remember what happened, so tell me about it. ”

Qiu Shi said: "A few days ago, there was a spring rain, the road was muddy, Lang Jun's carriage was passing by a mountain stream, unexpectedly a wheel skidped, the carriage overturned, Lang Jun threw out of the carriage, fell down the hill, fortunately a Lang Jun happened to pass by and saved the girl, otherwise ......" Speaking of this, Qiu Shi's face showed guilt, "It's all because we didn't take care of Lang Jun." ”

Xie Ling shook his head and smiled: "The wheels slipped, the carriage overturned, and it happened that a Lang Jun passed by, which sounds like an extremely coincidental thing." ”

Qiu Shi seemed to understand something, and said in astonishment: "Could it be that Lang Jun suspects that someone specially arranged this?" ”

Xie Ling looked at her: "You have called me Langjun since you were a child, and you have already called me very smoothly, if you call a girl for a while, you are still a little unaccustomed, right?" ”

Qiu Shi nodded: "Yes." ”

"But Chunhua is different from you, she keeps calling me a girl......"

Qiu Shi suddenly realized: "What Lang Jun means is that Chunhua often mentions Lang Jun's true identity in front of others, so he ...... Why did she betray Lang Jun? At this point, he was a little indignant, "I'll call her to ask ......."

After saying that, he was about to walk out the door, but he heard Xie Ling say again: "No need." I've reminded her. ”

Turning around, I saw Xie Ling recovering the bowl of tea on the table, and there was thoughtfulness in his bright eyes covered by long eyelashes.

Suddenly understood something, and asked again: "What does Lang Jun plan to do with Chunhua?" She and I have followed Lang Jun for many years, and we have always been like sisters, I really didn't expect ......"

"This is the last chance I can give her. If she leaves the room tonight, let her drink this bowl of tea, and tell her that we don't have to see each other again. ”

After saying this, Xie Ling seemed to be sleepy, so he turned around and returned to the bed, and motioned for Qiu Shi to take the bowl of tea out.
