On the hill behind the small town in the south of the Yangtze River, the sky was faint, and in a small hidden cave halfway up the mountain, a beautiful and thin woman dressed as a farmer suddenly opened her eyes.

Those eyes, very inappropriate for her age, showed a monstrous hatred and despair that only a dying person would have.

Liu Ruoxin sat up from the ground, looked at her rough palms, and looked down at the dark coarse cloth clothes on her body to see that a piece was missing from the corner of the clothes, and after looking back and forth a few times, she accepted this fact with an unbelievable face.

She seems, not dead?

Looking around through the faint daylight, I found that it was a small cave.

Cave?

Something flashed through her mind, and she wanted to stand up, but suddenly she felt some pain in her calf.

She looked down and saw that her calf had been injured and that she was now wrapped in a cloth.

She was stunned for a moment, and suddenly, she understood.

At this time, it was she who had not yet entered the palace and did not know Nalan Zhi, she was lost picking herbs on the hill behind her home, and her calf was injured, and she happened to save an injured man.

I heard that there was a intention to marry her, but how could the family disagree.

However, there is no married life she yearns for, the palace gate is like the sea, it is difficult to withdraw as soon as she enters, there is no maternal family to rely on, and there is no skill to be around, and she is helpless all day long, just looking forward to seeing him.

But in the end, he died under the calculations of the group of women in the harem.

Liu Ruoxin sat on the grass, staring at her rough hands, laughing with tears in her eyes.

"Nalan Zhi, I'm alive, living before I met you."

These hands are no longer slender and tender when they were in the palace, and their clothes are not as gorgeous and comfortable as they were in the palace, but she would rather live the life of the moment, as she wished before she died.

Liu Ruoxin stood up and walked out of the cave, her calf throbbed from time to time, she looked down, and the corners of her mouth hooked up a sarcastic smile.

There are many rules in the palace, and Nalan Zhi may like her so much, but what's the use! A small scar on her calf can be a reason to be laughed at and humiliated by the whole palace.

She is just a peasant girl, with no mother's support, no skills, and in that big cage made of gold, she is out of place, and the only thing to rely on is Nalan Zhi.

It's a pity that he finally lost her!

The hatred of killing her son and destroying her family, she will never forget it for the rest of her life.

Liu Ruoxin tried hard to recall the bits and pieces of his previous life, staggering, and deliberately walked in the opposite direction from his previous life.

She doesn't want to meet the man who made her miserable all her life and die sadly.

The most vivid memories in her mind are the bloody scenes before she died, and the current hill is incomprehensible to her, and she has long been unable to distinguish the direction.

Walking and walking, I don't know where I was, I don't know what I tripped under my feet, but fortunately, she didn't fall by holding on to a tree next to her.

It's just that when she stood up straight and looked around, her heart sank.

She took every precaution, and did not hesitate to get lost and chose the opposite way, but she still met Nalan Zhi, who was injured and unconscious.

With her palms clenched and her eyes trembling, she turned and left.

As long as she doesn't meet this person, she won't enter the palace, her life won't be so miserable and short, she will be like her grandmother, although her life is hard, but at least the family is safe and happy, so it's great.

One foot stepped out, but the other was caught by something.

She looked down and saw a dazzling smile on Nalan Zhi's stained and bloodstained face, the eyes that attracted her the most, as clear as the shallow stream in front of her door.

Hurriedly turned his eyes away, "Let go, I'm going home." ”

Liu Ruoxin pulled her steps a few times, but was stopped by Nalan and held her ankles, and she couldn't take a step.

Nalan Zhi grabbed the last straw in front of him and didn't let go, "I've never heard that Jiangnan girls are gentle and petty, and they are the most soft-hearted, why is it that the girl can't be saved when she sees death, so different?" ”

Nalan Zhi's words made Liu Ruoxin look down at him, and his eyes showed unconcealed hatred, which was unprovoked and distinct, which made Nalan Zhi very confused.

"Did the girl have a grudge with me?"

Liu Ruoxin turned her head with a cold face, and wanted to leave when she raised her feet, but as soon as she lowered her head, that hand still grabbed her ankle and didn't let go.

His face became colder and colder, "I have never seen the young master before, where is the grudge from?" ”

Nalan Zhi took a rough breath, sat up a little, and the hand that grabbed her ankle still didn't let go, "In that case, why did the girl look at me like that?" ”

At this moment, his face was covered with smudges, and he couldn't see the original appearance at all, but Liu Ruoxin knew what kind of bewildering face was under those smudges, and at this moment, his bright phoenix eyes just stared at her, which made her chest full of bitterness.

Don't look away, Liu Ruoxin's voice trembled a little.

"I look at you like that, but I look at you as a person who is about to die, and I don't feel a little sorry."

Nalan stopped his eyes and chuckled twice, leading the wounds in his body, gasping weakly, and the look of pain between his eyebrows could not be hidden.

"If the girl saves me, she will naturally get a lot of benefits."

Liu Ruoxin looked condescendingly at the weak Nalan Zhi on the ground, and his tone was cold.

"If I don't save you, I won't have anything to lose."

These words made Nalan stunned for a moment, and his eyes changed slightly when he looked at Liu Ruoxin, but it was difficult for people to notice.

After a moment of silence, Nalan Zhi let go of the hand that was gripping her ankle, his eyes full of confidence.

"If the girl is willing to come to the rescue, I can ensure that the girl's family has no worries about food and clothing for the rest of their lives."

Nalan Zhi's hand had clearly let go of her, but Liu Ruoxin seemed to be forcibly fixed in place by something, and her feet couldn't take half a step.

She hated those who had mutilated her and her relatives in her heart, but she resented the man in front of her, how cold he was at the time, and how distrustful he was later.

Liu Ruoxin knows very well how much she resents this man now, so how much she loves this man.

Even if a stranger was injured and fell in front of her at the moment, she couldn't do anything about it, let alone the man she loved so much.

She couldn't let him go, and she couldn't see him die here!

In this case, if it was not a transaction, she was just a peasant girl who did not know his identity, and she would not have to go to the cage again until the money and goods were separated.

His hands tightened and loosened, he took a deep breath, and lowered his head to look at Nalan Zhi.

"I hope Childe keeps his promise."

Nalan Zhi is already at the end of the strong crossbow, and it is very rare to hold on to it at this time.

He stroked his chest and coughed lightly twice, "Don't worry, girl. ”
