When she first saw him, she was happy, apprehensive, and uneasy. Fortunately, he appeared in time to save Qian Peony and Mr. Zheng, so that she would not wander in the dilemma of saving people or hiding her strength, and also saved her from the danger of being entangled by several male students who went into the water. Of course, she was most glad that he was there when she missed and needed him the most.

A few days ago, Cicada Yi accidentally wet the portrait of the young lady left by Zhu Quan three years ago, and Cicada Yi wanted to quietly take it out to dry, but collided with Brother Zhu who was playing with bamboo dragonflies, and tore the painting in half on the spot.

Cicada Yi can't hide it, and occasionally sees the young lady staring at this painting in a daze, as if no one calls her to hear the lost soul, presumably very precious to this painting, so she held the broken painting to find the young lady to take the blame. Unexpectedly, the young lady learned of this with a faint face, as if she didn't care, just asked herself to remove the scroll, the young lady said that she went back to imitate a similar one, took it to the outside shop and framed it with this scroll, and hung it on the wall to fool Mama Tang and others who often came to the door.

Who knew that this dismantling would reveal the problem, it turned out that the cicada found that the beware of the painting shaft was hollow, and there was a hidden cover that could be unscrewed, and a letter was poured out from it after unscrewing the lid. Cicada Yi showed the letter to He Angelica, who only glanced at it a few times and threw it away with a disgusted face.

Ning Yuan in the letter said in a smug tone that he had a noble identity that she could not imagine, and in time, his status would not stop there. The letter said that he admired her very much, and felt that she was a woman worthy of him, except that her status was too low, although he wanted to marry her as a wife, but unfortunately she would be ridiculed by others even as his concubine. Then he comforted her and said that he would take the matter to heart, and plan well for her, and when he found the right time, he would give her a noble identity unknowingly, and marry her as his wife, so that she could wait patiently, cherish herself, eat more and sleep more to gain a little more weight.

After a while, He Angelica breathed a sigh of relief, picked up the letter from the ground and read it again, still having a feeling of swallowing a fly, and couldn't help but throw the letter away again. From the sense of superiority between the lines, she seemed to be able to see Zhu Quan's high-minded face of charity, and told her to "wait patiently"? Hehe, do you think she can't wait after reading this letter? "Eat more, sleep more, and gain weight"? Sure enough, she didn't guess wrong, he treated her as a little fat sheep in Luofu, and pulled her to slaughter when she was fattened.

According to He Angelica's knowledge, not long after Zhu Quan left Yangzhou last time, he married Xie Qiaofeng as the princess, although the time of marriage was delayed by a few months compared with the previous life, but he married the sister-in-law of King Jin, a real proud daughter of the sky, and she didn't need to fabricate any identity to be already expensive.

This was originally good news for her, but on this side, Zhu Quan still did not give up on her, and probably planned to persuade her to retreat to the second, and getting a side concubine or concubine would be regarded as her climbing him. Every year during the New Year's Festival, he would always send Feng Yang to send all kinds of rare treasures to her, which was called "love tokens", so that she could feel his "sincerity" to her. Oh, how could she get the heart of His Royal Highness King Ning, her own heart was swallowed up by a group of wild wolves and dogs. I didn't expect Zhu Quan to be so naïve in love when he was a teenager, compared with the flower hunting master Ning Wang many years later, he was so naïve that he equated treasures with feelings, isn't a penniless person worthy of feelings.

And every time, after Feng Yang forced her to accept the "token" with grace and might, Feng Yang would instantly transform into the face of his confidant brother, persuading her to cherish King Ning's heart, and with gratitude and admiration, waiting for King Ning to take time out of his busy schedule to marry her.

Feng Yang looked up to the sky and sighed, it is easy to ask for priceless treasures, it is rare to have a lover, as a woman, the place where she can move freely is just a mansion, even if the mansion is as big as a city, it is still a mansion, and the owner of this mansion is the husband of all the women in the courtyard - he seems to know women better than women, and sympathize with them more than the gods and Buddhas of the heavens.

Feng Yang waved a folding fan with splashed ink and said impassionedly, many women will not get the love of their husbands in their lives, such as Xie Qiaofeng, who can't get the favor of King Ning with all her efforts. And she is a little woman who is trying to survive in the cracks of the door of the mansion, and she has already made King Ning worry before she has passed the door, and you can imagine how many honors and favors she has married in the past. Coupled with King Ning's status and character and talent, he is the object of admiration of women all over the world, and there is no woman in the world who he is not worthy, and there is no woman he can't get. Now he just wants to get such a humble woman as her, so she should be full of honor waiting for the sedan chair brought by the palace, and when she is married, she will naturally be carefree and honored all her life - this is King Ning's solemn promise to her, and she will never break her word.

Now, after opening such a letter, she was secretly relieved that she had not seen anyone for nearly a year, but once again she was like a frightened bird, and even the small burden of running away from home was laid. She has Quanjitang and Yihong Courtyard, a silver ticket worth 15,000 taels and a field deed, which has caught up with the amount of dowry brought by the old lady when she married into the Luo family, if she didn't want to see the fate of the people in the second room with her own eyes, if she didn't want to follow the Luo family close to the heavenly family, and seek a glorious identity for herself that is not looked down upon, so that her mother can also straighten her waist and come out of the Taoist temple to bask in the sun, she could have left early and drew a clear line with the past.

Several times she really wanted to throw her hands and leave, but as long as she saw Sun Meiniang still happily being the housewife of Luofu, saw her skillful ability to accept everyone in the mansion, and saw the spring breeze in front of her, she could immediately think of the smiling face that was cut into several pieces by the well fence when she looked up in that dark water prison. Every time I saw that scene, my internal organs seemed to have been soaked in spirits, and I gained the courage to continue to stay in Luofu.

She absolutely can't forgive Zhu Quan, who chooses to stand by and watch, let alone Sun Meiniang's mother and daughter, who threw poisonous snakes into the water prison and bit her sister and son alive. As long as she doesn't take revenge, her life will never be complete, and only when these two people get their due retribution, can she start a new life in the true sense, she silently tells herself in her heart, revenge, revenge, this is righteous revenge......

But she was really worried that before she could achieve her goal, the ill-intentioned Zhu Quan would really give her a decent fake identity and transplant her into the soil of the palace as his letter said. Although there were a bunch of her old people living there, she didn't want to meet them, it would remind her that she was one of them, one of the women who "loved" Zhu Quan deeply. As long as she has no worries about food and clothing, and the silver ticket comes to the door every day, and then thinks about the scene of those women breaking their heads and scratching their faces in order to fight for a Zhu power, she is already happy enough, and she really doesn't want to take the happiness of her life to watch a live version of the wife and concubine husband war.

Therefore, since Cicada Yi's mistake this time, and then helped her discover this letter left by Ning Yuan, what she missed the most in the past few days was Meng Xuan. Now it seems that even if she can command Bai Yangbai to persuade Zhu Quan, Zhu Quan is likely to coax Bai Yangbai away first, and then turn her head and attack her unexpectedly, leaving her in a dark prison.

Before He Angelica met Meng Xuan, she felt that Meng Xuan was the only person who could save her now, and the most suitable person to save her. She even thought that he must have been very happy to save her, after all, every time she closed her eyes and recalled his appearance, it was his inexplicable friendly smile and his selfless help to her. Although she didn't say this point, she also deeply understood in her heart that she had learned his mental method, and let him refine his true qi and return it to herself, she really took a big advantage.

As for why he helped her so much, in addition to the fact that his true qi passed through his meridians once and gave him a reason to benefit, she understood this "selfless help" as "mutual assistance of the same kind". God testifies that she really thought so before she met him.

After He Angelica saw Meng Xuan, she felt that he seemed to be a lot farther away from her, after two years of training in the army, his facial contours were much tougher, and he took off the fat powder beauty that made her secretly jealous three years ago, and now he will no longer be mistaken for a girl. Such Meng Xuan is like a piece of jade in the rain, clear without a trace of flaws, and like a peerless sword in the sword box, quiet as the eternal Xuan Ice Iron, moving like the peak of the Wuyue Pagoda, Bai Lian is invincible wherever he goes. Such Meng Xuan, does he still recognize her?

This young man who once hugged her on a lonely night, and whispered his deepest secret when she was sleeping, after three years, is he still her "kind"? Is he still willing to offer her selfless help? Let her justifiably escape into the safe haven of the Meng family, and wait for Zhu Quan to give up before returning to the Luo family and continuing her first mission - revenge.

Although it doesn't sound like much of a loss to him, because the Meng family is the hard bone that Zhu Quan is most reluctant to gnaw, Meng Xuan only needs to act in two scenes to take her away from the Luo family, but, looking at that outstanding young man, will he be willing to let her be his "nominal concubine"?

So the first time I saw him, she seemed to have a disobedient rabbit on her chest, and she panicked when she kicked and scratched. Thinking about it, she didn't see his farewell letter, and she didn't see him off; Later, when she received a letter from him saying that he had received "two hundred rods, his muscles and bones were broken, and his organs were broken, and his life was short", she studied his handwriting, and found that it was still vigorous and powerful, so she suspected that he had used exaggerated rhetoric, and finally did not look at him. He had helped her so many times, and she had done nothing for him, could she still ask him for help under the guise of a "kind", and would he be willing to help her after experiencing her coldness.

In this way, she reunited with him in the bustling crowd of people, with three points of joy and seven points of anxiety in her heart. Although she hung her head and did not look at him, she knew exactly where he stood; Although he never turned his head to look at her, she seemed to feel a pair of eyes on the back of his head, which looked at her from a distance without emotion.

The more time passed, the more uneasy she felt, and she couldn't help but think that he was really annoyed with her, and he probably refused to admit himself as a conscienceless apprentice for the rest of his life, and even ignored the master's blood-vomiting suicide note, and even the master's last face was troublesome and refused to go to see him.

There was an empty place in her chest, and the sourness made her uncomfortable, and her hands and feet, which had not been warmed up since she came ashore, became more and more cold. Where does this sad feeling come from, after three years of adapting to this "new world", hasn't she already armed herself with hard armor, or is she feeling weak and feels that she owes that young man a lot? He told her about his mysterious life like a night pearl buried in the deep sea, but she guarded her night pearl and told him that she was too hypocritical because she had stones in her box.

Although when he told his secret, he thought that she was already asleep, and she could not bear to sleep for a long time because of her attachment to such snuggles and precious warmth. When he had finished speaking, he was alarmed to notice that she was awake, and he repeatedly begged and told her to keep his secret. In fact, he didn't have to be so low-voiced, his skills were so strong that he could easily make her shut her mouth forever - she knew that if she replaced him with someone like Zhu Quan, she would immediately turn into a cold corpse.

Thinking like this, she felt even more guilty about him, feeling the alienated temperament that he exuded only for her, she began to secretly regret that she had sent more than a dozen letters greeting her well-being and the progress of her martial arts, why didn't she choose one of them? The hollow in her chest was getting bigger and bigger, and it was stuffed with snow, had she lost his friend? Did he deny her?

The symptoms of cold, stuffy, and sour chests were all healed in an instant—just as he buried his forehead on her shoulder to "smell".

He didn't have to get so close, because he knew exactly what she smelled like, and if it was a routine inspection, he only had to smell it symbolically, and he didn't need to snuggle so tightly at all. Is he willing to lean on her like this and warm her, does it mean that he is not angry with her?

At that time, a small joy welled up in her heart, and she motionlessly let him "smell", and the more leaky "tick-tock" flow in her heart accumulated to a wonderful moment into an eternal point in time. When he retreated, she saw a long-lost smile in his eyes, not the alienated arc on his lips, his smile, spring blossoms, she finally believed that her little master was really back, she was saved! She's got a shield!

After Meng Xuan said a word to let everyone wait for the official errand in place and witness together, she suddenly fell into his arms, and the faint green tea fragrance on his clothes hit the tip of her nose.

She knew they were flying, she knew they were away from the crowd, she knew that there was an uproar in the crowd, but at this moment she didn't want to think about whether it was appropriate to leave like this, she really missed the embrace of this green tea taste. It's been three years, every time she thinks of this embrace, her heart is grateful and sour, he is like a comet across her life, taking away her loneliness and fear at that time, and also letting her learn "dependence" for the first time in her life.

Before I met him, she was a lonely hero, and when she was forced to the extreme, the most she could do was to follow Jing Ke's example and assassinate Qin, carrying a knife in her arms to kill Zhu Quan. After getting to know him, she learned to draw energy from her surroundings and ask for help, and when she was haunted by old dreams, she drew happiness from Qing'er and Cicada Yi and others; When she met Zhu Quan, who she didn't want to face, she couldn't help but want to borrow his body as a shield...... He'll say yes, right?

Thinking like this, the two of them flew into the depths of the bamboo forest, landed on the tip of a green bamboo, swayed up and down with the wind, and in the afterglow of the setting sun, he told the same sunset three years ago, in the grass of an ancient path deep in the mountains, she had saved his life. She was surprised at the same time, but she was slightly happy in her heart, it turned out that he knew! Then there is another layer of bonds between them, kindred, friends, confidants, mentors and apprentices, and benefactors...... She is now forced to drown by Zhu Quan, is he willing to be her "lifebuoy"? Qing'er said that when people have a "lifebuoy", they are no longer afraid of being drowned.

Without waiting for her to ask, he suddenly pressed his lips to hers.

Although her first instinct was to push him away, but a flash of tears in his eyes made her hand stop in mid-air, and he cried? Is it because I miss it too much? Then why didn't he come to her? Didn't he ever think that maybe she was waiting for him? The taste of having a "lifebuoy", after only tasting it once, she no longer likes to be alone in the empty water.

He was crying, he was kissing her on the lips, but she didn't feel angry, she just wanted to know what her place was in his heart. Like he said three years ago, he's really a good person, not as good as ...... She grabbed this "lifebuoy" to make a home on the cold and helpless sea, right? Simply...... She really followed him as a concubine, right? That way, she would no longer have to fear the great storms at sea all year round.

His temperament was so gentle and kind, and he was so considerate and thoughtful to her, that he knew that after she went ashore, she was blown cold by the wind, so he deliberately took her to no one and helped her to dry her clothes. He must be a good man and a good husband if he is so considerate...... It's a pity that her identity is not enough to be his wife, and being a concubine still depends on the old relationship between the two, seeing that she is pitiful, half sold and half sent, and forced to be him.

Although she has many ways to change her identity, so that she can marry several times as much, but her time is not enough, and Zhu Quan's hidden sword is already hanging above her head.
