Ma Guilan told a secret, a secret that she only knew about her and Cai Xiaoqian. It turned out that Cai Xiaoqian and Ma Guilan were cousins, and the two were cousins. Cai Xiaoqian's biological parents were Ma Guilan's aunt and uncle, and Ma Guilan's aunt married a man who was poorer than the Ma family. Of course, Ma Guilan's father and two brothers looked down on this poor brother-in-law, so they did not let this sister and brother-in-law go home, and they were even more worried that their sister and brother-in-law would divide the family property. Ma Guilan's aunt gave birth to four children in a row, all of whom were girls, and the girls were not worth much at that time, so her mother-in-law was unhappy. In order to live so that the family would not starve to death in the future, Ma Guilan's aunt gave three of her daughters to others, but she actually sold her own daughters. The youngest child is Cai Xiaoqian, she was sold to a family surnamed Cai in the city, so her name is Cai Xiaoqian. After Cai Xiaoqian's adoptive father and adoptive mother passed away, her nominal uncle was the one who wanted to return the child to Ma Guilan's aunt and uncle, but Ma Guilan's aunt's family couldn't afford to raise it. Ma Guilan's father once mentioned this incident during a private complaint, and Ma Guilan remembered the secret. I forgot to tell Cai Xiaoqian at that time, and later after entering the palace, it became the secret of Ma Guilan and Cai Xiaoqian. Cai Xiaoqian also heard her aunt talk about it, saying that she was someone else's child and brought it, but she didn't know who the other party was. After Ma Guilan told Cai Xiaoqian the secret, Cai Xiaoqian immediately accepted it, because Ma Guilan was so young that it was impossible to lie, and besides, Cai Xiaoqian and Ma Guilan were really a bit alike. Ma Guilan's grandfather is Cai Xiaoqian's grandfather, and the two are related by blood, so they look like sisters. Ma Guilan and Cai Xiaoqian decided not to tell it, and this secret became the biggest secret between the two of them.

After Cai Xiaoqian and Ma Guilan escaped from the palace, they once planned to go home together. But later, after Cai Xiaoqian learned about Ning'er, she was worried that it would be dangerous for Ma Guilan to go home, so she persuaded Ma Guilan not to go home. After Ning'er disappeared that night, everyone was even more worried that something would go wrong, so everyone dispersed and decided not to contact each other anymore. Cai Xiaoqian secretly told Ma Guilan that she wanted Ma Guilan to return to her hometown and wait for the news, and the two sisters would have a chance to reunite in the future. The reason why Ma Guilan stayed in the county near her hometown was because she made an appointment with Cai Xiaoqian. Cai Xiaoqian once discussed with Ma Guilan that if their family didn't recognize them when they went home, they would live in the county seat, and the two sisters would rely on each other for a lifetime. According to Cai Xiaoqian's memory, Ma Guilan found Cai Xiaoqian's home in the city, bought the house of Cai Xiaoqian's adoptive father and mother, and waited for Cai Xiaoqian to come back. Because Cai Xiaoqian used to live in this house, Cai Xiaoqian knew some places where things were hidden, and according to Cai Xiaoqian's memory, Ma Guilan hid some evidence separately in these places. While patiently waiting for Cai Xiaoqian's return, Ma Guilan began to prepare for life here, and Ma Guilan even thought that the two sisters would open a shop and be the proprietress herself.

Ma Guilan waited for Cai Xiaoqian for several years, but Cai Xiaoqian just didn't appear, which made Ma Guilan very anxious. Ma Guilan is really good to Cai Xiaoqian, because they are not only cousins, but also because they share weal and woe in the palace. Ma Guilan has already lost a good sister Ning'er, and she is unwilling to lose another good sister Cai Xiaoqian. Ma Guilan was not a person who believed in Buddhism, she always thought that the gods and Buddhas gave up on her, so she would live so painfully. But in order to pray for Cai Xiaoqian, a good sister, to come back, Ma Guilan often went to worship the Buddha and donate money, and made a big wish that as long as Cai Xiaoqian came back, Ma Guilan would make a great merit. But Cai Xiaoqian seemed to have disappeared from the world, and there was no clue at all.

Just because she often goes to the temple, Ma Guilan learned a small news, it is said that the gods of a place are very effective, not only curing all diseases but also having great magical powers. Ma Guilan has a lot of diseases, most of which are lumbar muscle strain, all of which are left over from working in the Huanyi Bureau. Although Ma Guilan is not very old, these old injuries are already very serious, and what makes Ma Guilan most excited is that this person has great magical powers and may help Ma Guilan find Cai Xiaoqian. Ma Guilan thought about it for a long time and finally agreed to take a look, hoping to find her good sister Cai Xiaoqian while treating her illness.

I don't know if Ma Guilan is lucky, or Ma Guilan's luck is not good, Ma Guilan just arrived at this so-called reincarnated heavenly master's place, and saw Cai Xiaoqian, a good sister she couldn't dream of. Ma Guilan was just about to come forward to recognize each other, but was frightened by the appearance of several other people. There are not only Ma Guilan's good sister Cai Xiaoqian, but also five or six Ma Guilan's former good sisters and brothers. Their appearance here together made Ma Guilan suspicious, could it be that they were together on purpose? Aren't they afraid of being discovered? Or do they have to rely on for such blatant appearance? Just when Ma Guilan was suspicious, Ma Guilan unexpectedly saw a person who shocked her, she was the original Ning'er. Although this Ning Er is now dressed in men's clothes and looks like a man, Ma Guilan and Ning Er are too familiar and can see through Ning Er's disguise almost at a glance.

Cai Xiaoqian and the others are here, and Ning Er is here dressed as a man again, there must be something wrong here. By the way, everyone said that the archmage here is a child who is only a few years old, what is the name of the reincarnated heavenly master. Could it be that this child is Ning'er's child? These people are Ning'er's subordinates, the people who helped Ning'er deceive everyone? Ma Guilan didn't have time to think about it, her only plan was to leave here as soon as possible, it was very unfavorable to her.

Ma Guilan turned over and left the temple, but it was too late. Ma Guilan's appearance had already been notified to Ning'er, and Ning'er also recognized who Ma Guilan was for the first time. Ning'er's people scattered to guard the various exits of the temple, and Ma Guilan entered Ning'er's territory by throwing herself into the net. In order not to attract the attention of outsiders, in order not to turn his face directly with Ma Guilan, several people who knew Ma Guilan approached Ma Guilan. approached Ma Guilan as an unexpected meeting, and then pushed Ma Guilan into a room. Ning'er wanted to use her relationship with Ma Guilan to persuade Ma Guilan to be tempted, but Ma Guilan was a little moved at first.

At this time, Ma Guilan only felt a pain in her right waist, as if someone was pinching herself. Ma Guilan immediately came to her senses and realized that she was almost fooled. Ma Guilan saw through Ning'er's conspiracy and was even more convinced that Ning'er had become scared to Ma Guilan. Ma Guilan immediately thought of the consequences of handing over the evidence, these people would definitely kill themselves. Ma Guilan was glad that she woke up in time and did not tell the location of the secret, while secretly guessing who the person who reminded her was. There are two people standing on Ma Guilan's right hand, one is the dog baby in Ma Guilan's village, and the other is Ma Guilan's cousin Cai Xiaoqian. Ma Guilan immediately realized that the person who reminded her might be Cai Xiaoqian. Although the relationship between the dog baby and Ma Guilan is good, so many years have passed, and it is impossible for the dog baby to betray Ning'er in order to remind herself. People like Ning'er treat traitors very cruelly, and no one dares to do this. Only Cai Xiaoqian, who has a little blood relationship and sisterhood with Ma Guilan, would do this, she didn't want to see Ma Guilan die like this, so she took the risk to remind Ma Guilan.

Ma Guilan was not at all moved by everyone's persuasion, and Ning Er gave up the use of Ma Guilan when she saw that the use of drugs was useless. Ma Guilan refused to eat, forcing Ning'er to prepare for execution, and wanted to use torture tools to force Ma Guilan to tell the secret. But Ma Guilan warned Ning'er that if Ning'er dared to do this, this secret would become Ning'er's life-threatening talisman. Ma Guilan said that if she died, the secret would be known by the people of the yamen, and Ning'er would be secretly disposed of by the imperial court, and there would be no other way to live. Ning'er really didn't dare to joke with everyone and her own life, so she had to lock up Ma Guilan. Ma Guilan reminded Ning'er that if she didn't go back for a long time, her people would think that she was dead and would report Ning'er anyway. Ning Er had no choice but to listen to everyone's persuasion and let Ma Guilan return to the county seat, but sent someone to supervise Ma Guilan. Ma Guilan also knew that if she didn't hand over the evidence one day, she would be safe, so she simply lived a peaceful life. Cai Xiaoqian has written many times to persuade Ma Guilan on the surface, but in fact, she is reminding Ma Guilan not to hand over the evidence, she will find a way to protect Ma Guilan at the general altar.

Ma Guilan told a secret, and the method of writing the letter was told to Ma Guilan by Cai Xiaoqian. When Ma Guilan was imprisoned by Ning Er in the main altar, Cai Xiaoqian "persuaded" Ma Guilan in person many times. Because there were other people around her, Cai Xiaoqian didn't dare to explain the truth of the matter to Ma Guilan. Cai Xiaoqian pretended to persuade Ma Guilan, and after Ma Guilan did not agree, Cai Xiaoqian "scolded" Ma Guilan. When Cai Xiaoqian was leaving, she suddenly said something inexplicable, asking Ma Guilan to pay attention to keeping warm, and if it was really cold, he would roast the fire to keep warm. Ma Guilan's own physique is hot, and Sichuan is relatively warm here, why does Cai Xiaoqian want Ma Guilan to keep warm? Ma Guilan didn't know, but later Cai Xiaoqian almost mentioned the roasting fire every time, and Ma Guilan began to understand. After returning to the county seat, Ma Guilan began to live a peaceful life while being monitored, and Cai Xiaoqian's letters were almost the same, all of which persuaded Ma Guilan to cooperate with Ning'er. Ma Guilan read the letter in front of the caretaker, and then threw the letter aside casually. After the caretaker left, Ma Guilan tried to take the letter and roast it on the fire, and finally knew Cai Xiaoqian's true intentions.
