Chapter 192: Extra Chapter 10: The Destruction of Lingyuan (Pei Ji and Jiang Rou)
Boom——
Some people's sanity is rapidly collapsing.
Pei Ji stood there stiffly, looking at her, his eyes dim and his voice hoarse, "Rou'er, I..."
He was interrupted by a long, lingering kiss.
Hot hands held her up.
At the turn of day and night, when all things first wake up, they rise and fall, making love with each other.
——
Pei Ji did not keep his word.
The peach blossoms bloomed twice, but he didn't come back.
Not long after Pei Ji left, Jiang Rou returned to Lingyuan.
When Zhou Dian was around, she studied medicine with him. When Zhou Dian was not around, she made cakes and carved wood carvings.
Two years later, she was able to make peach blossom cakes quite well, and her carving skills were so proficient that no one could detect her carving radish seals.
Two years was a long time, so long that Pei Ji's face began to blur in his memory.
Pei Ji still didn't come back, but Xiao Yuli came over often.
Yes, the terrain at the entrance to Lingyuan is complex and ordinary people cannot enter.
But Xiao Yuli followed Jiang Rou all the way, made marks along the way, and memorized the route in and out of Lingyuan very well.
"Come with me, Rourou."
He said this while holding the same white jade dog as before.
Jiang Rou took the white jade dog and threw it into the lake.
"Get lost!"
This time, Xiao Yuli was angry, contrary to his usual behavior. "What's so good about Pei Ji?"
"What's so wrong with Pei Ji that he has to deal with someone as heartless as you?"
Jiang Rou didn't give him any face at all, which made him so angry that his eyebrows flew up.
"You should have been alone. If he hadn't insisted on saving me, the person who fell into the Lingyuan and lived with you day and night would have been alone!"
"Just you?" Jiang Rou looked at him coldly, "I'm not interested in old men."
"you!"
Xiao Yuli glared at her, then suddenly burst into laughter.
"Rou Rou, stop being so persistent. I have plenty of ways to get you!"
After saying that, he suddenly raised his hand and sent a flare into the sky.
Within the time it took to stick up an incense stick, tens of thousands of soldiers surrounded the peach forest, making it impossible for anyone to get in or out.
Jiang Rouhun was so scared that she almost fainted. "What are you going to do?"
"do what?"
Xiao Yuli narrowed his eyes, "I'm not afraid to tell you, Pei Ji will be back in Beijing in half a month, and I don't have the patience to wait any longer."
——
A huge fire burned down the peach forest.
The wooden puppy in Jiang Rou's hand was also snatched away by Xiao Yuli and thrown into the raging fire.
More than a thousand people from the Lingyuan tribe were captured by Xiao Yuli, and Uncle Li's family was brutally murdered.
Uncle Li vowed to defend the peach forest to the death and remained in the fire forever.
Li Chuan was stabbed through the heart by Xiao Yuli because he said "Don't touch my Rourou".
Before committing suicide, Aunt Li shouted helplessly to Jiang Rou:
"The Lingyuan clan possesses no rare treasures and has never provoked outsiders, so why did they suffer such a disaster? Does the Saint know what the term "clan leader" actually means?!"
Yes, the Lingyuan clan is a small clan with nothing, but Li Er is rushing to be the acting clan leader.
He got nothing but a disobedient child and an inescapable responsibility.
"As the patriarch, I should protect my people." He often said this.
But Jiang Rou, the tribe leader, caused the tribe members to lose their lives and their homes.
"I'll go with you."
She raised her eyes and looked at Xiao Yuli, "But, I want to decide where my people will go."
After returning to the capital, she secretly arranged for her clansmen to live in a house that Pei Ji had bought to please her.
At that time, Pei Ji even joked that if they had a quarrel one day, she would ask for separation so that she would have a place to go.
But this house was not a place to stay for long. After a few days, the clansmen used the money left by Pei Ji and Jiang Rou to move to other places in batches.
Soon, Pei Ji led the Black Hawk Army into Beijing.
Jiang Rou was delighted.
The tribesmen had already settled down, and Pei Ji had also returned. If she didn't run away now, when would she?
While Xiao Yuli was away from the East Palace, she bribed the guards and sneaked out disguised as a eunuch.
At this time, Xiao Yuli was serving as a representative of the royal family to welcome Pei Ji who had returned triumphantly.
"Where are you going? Come here."
When passing through the palace gate during the chaos, Xiao Yuli recognized Jiang Rou at a glance.
He took her into his arms and said to Pei Ji, who was standing opposite him, "My beloved concubine is a little shy!"
Pei Ji finally saw the face of his beloved concubine. He was extremely shocked. "Rou'er?"
Didn't she go back to Lingyuan? How could this happen?
Jiang Rou didn't want to pretend anymore, so she bit Xiao Yuli's arm hard and tried to break free.
Xiao Yuli leaned close to her ear at the right moment and said, "Rou Rou, do you really think I can't find your clansmen? They're all staying in the Dali Temple prison. If you don't believe me, you can just run back to Pei Ji and see if you can bear the consequences!"
Jiang Rou's heart skipped a beat, and she said angrily, "Despicable!"
"Oh, if I wasn't a little humble, how could I sit in this position?"
"General Pei, Rourou and I promised to spend our lives together several years ago. I'm sorry."
Pei Ji's eyes were bloodshot, and his brows were tightly knitted together. "Rou'er, I want to hear you say it."
Jiang Rou took a deep breath, quickly held back her tears, and forced a smile.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince is a man of great stature and elegance, and he's the future ruler of a nation. Rou'er has no reason to refuse. Isn't that right, General Pei?"
As he finished speaking, he clearly saw Pei Ji's palms clenched tightly, and a pair of fine Hetian jade Pisces pendants were crushed.
Threads of blood seeped out from between his fingers and dripped onto the bluestone ground in front of the palace gate, like dots of red plum blossoms.
"As long as Rou'er likes it."
With tears in his eyes, he glanced at Xiao Yuli's white brocade robe with a five-clawed python pattern and suddenly laughed at himself.
Wearing a white robe and being taciturn, this is the style that sister Rouer likes.
"I am tired from the journey and feel unwell. Please allow me to go home and rest."
"allow."
Pei Ji did not hesitate, turned his horse around and galloped away.
At this moment, Jiang Rou trembled and shed tears, gritted her teeth and said:
"Are you satisfied? I want to see my people, right now!"
"No problem."
For the next period of time, Jiang Rou stayed in the East Palace obediently and did not cause any trouble.
Xiao Yuli also followed the agreement and did not touch her. He was busy dealing with his own affairs and preparing to take a concubine.
Yes, he already has a Crown Princess and two concubines. If Jiang Rou marries them, she will be the fourth son.
The two concubines disliked her, but they couldn't do anything to her. To be more precise, they didn't dare to do anything to her, after all, the prince doted on her very much.
Only the little grandson of the emperor, Xiao Ye, who was only a few years old, dared to come over and call her a vixen and a stinky bitch.
Jiang Rou was just feeling angry and had no place to vent it, so she went up to him and slapped him twice, kicked him a few more times, and pulled out a few clumps of his hair before she let it go.
Anyway, it has come to this, she has nothing to be afraid of, just die.
Xiao Yuli naturally didn't want her to die, so not only did he not do anything to her, he also put Xiao Ye in solitary confinement.
He stood behind Jiang Rou, looking at her in the bronze mirror, sitting in front of the dressing table, with a smile on his face.
"From tomorrow on, you will be my concubine. Are you happy, Rourou?"
"Happy." Jiang Rou pursed her lips and dressed herself up to look bright and beautiful.
"Before that, I want to go out for a while and not let anyone follow me."
"Where are you going?"
"Jewelry shop."
Jiang Rou really went to the jewelry store, but Xiao Yuli broke his promise.
He sent several men to follow her.
But Jiang Rou learned her lesson this time. After leaving the jewelry shop, she went to several shops, changed her clothes and makeup, and tried to shake people off.
She went to the house that Pei Ji bought for her, but unexpectedly, he was there too.
He sat on the floor in the hall with drooping eyebrows and a decadent look on his face, surrounded by a pile of empty wine jugs.
Even so, he was still numbly pouring wine into his mouth without any restraint.
He tilted his head back, leaning against the wall, and suddenly saw that familiar figure.
"Rou'er?"
