0137 Playing dead.
As long as it doesn't speak, the owner won't pursue the matter.
Fengming really had no way to deal with the system that pretended to be dead. Since this annoying thing had been installed, he couldn't beat it or scold it. Forget it, he could only adapt to it.
"Hey, what if I don't investigate this faked death mystery? Will there be any punishment?"
"No, Master, but 0137 will be punished. 0137 will be locked up in a small dark room for 10 days. During these 10 days, he won't be able to chat with Master or act cute, nor will he be able to detect potential lucky people for Master. He'll be so pitiful and cautious, observing Master carefully for fear of getting angry and getting locked up in a small dark room for not completing tasks.jpg."
Fengming “…”
The lengthy description at the end is too unfair, it's just to stimulate her to complete the task.
"Then this Wu Wan must have faked her death. Why did she die so young?"
Fengming decided to ask Zhu Shiqing directly. What if he just happened to know it? That would be perfect.
Zhu Shiqing shook his head, his expression becoming even sadder.
A thought flashed through the minds of the five people: there must be a story between these two people.
Sure enough, this also involves a story of first love that is full of tragic love and deep affection.
Zhu Shiqing and Wu Wan were once lovers, an unforgettable first love!
At that time, Zhu Shiqing was studying at Qingzhou Academy and had a very good relationship with his classmate Wu Tang.
The Wu family was a wealthy family in Qingzhou, their wealth rivaling that of the Xin family, the richest in Dongyao. However, Wu Tang, a talented scholar, was the only one the family had produced in all those years, and his family held him in high regard. Consequently, they also valued scholars, especially his classmate and friend, the scholar Zhu Shiqing. Later, Zhu Shiqing was even allowed to move freely within the Wu family, becoming like a second son.
That's how he met Wu Wan.
Wu Wan is pretty, has a good personality, and is good at studying, but because the Wu family has some patriarchal ideas, they do not want to cultivate Wu Wan's studies. Instead, they train her to do business since she was a child, hoping that when she grows up, she will marry into the family business and help her brother to enter the officialdom with confidence.
But Wu Wan did not like doing business. Her dream was to be a talented woman, marry a talented man, pick lotus flowers at sunrise and compose poems at sunset, and live a leisurely poetic life at the foot of Nanshan Mountain.
Therefore, the handsome, elegant and polite scholar Zhu Shiqing was simply the ideal husband in Wu Wan's dreams. As soon as he appeared, all the businessmen arranged by the Wu family for her to date were compared to dust on the ground.
Zhu Shiqing naturally also likes Wu Wan. Wu Wan is beautiful and gentle, and can talk to him about poetry and songs and life ideals. They are simply perfect soul mates.
He originally thought that their relationship would definitely be supported by the Wu family, so after a long chat while watching the stars and the moon together, Zhu Shiqing happily announced his relationship to Wu Tang.
However, their love was not supported by Wu Tang, but was strongly opposed!
After the Wu family found out about her relationship, Wu Wan was locked up.
In Wu Tang's heart, this sister will be his helper in the future officialdom and a very crucial prop that can be used, but this prop obviously should not be used on Zhu Shiqing.
Zhu Shiqing went to Wu Tang to ask for help from Wu Wan, but he was unexpectedly rejected with a sneer.
The expression on Wu Tang's face was one of indifference and contempt that Zhu Shiqing had never seen before.
Zhu Shiqing will never forget what Wu Tang said.
"I've given you some color, and you really think you're a good material. You're just a country bumpkin from a small town, and you dare to think that a toad can eat swan meat? You don't even take a piss and look at yourself. What ability do you have to want to marry my sister?"
It was then that Zhu Shiqing realized that the people he thought of as "close friends" and "as close as his own children" were just a show.
Even the kindness that the Wu family had shown him in the past was actually just a way to build up their power in advance.
Wu Tang believed that Zhu Shiqing was a good student and would surely enter the military. However, Zhu Shiqing came from an ordinary wealthy family and would not achieve much in the future. He was the perfect candidate for a subordinate.
Because Wu Tang believed that he was bound to make great achievements in the officialdom, he naturally had to make preparations in advance.
Who would have known that the "servant" he had chosen would actually want to get his hands on the sister who was a more important prop? The immature Wu Tang was naturally furious and broke off relations with Zhu Shiqing after making sarcastic remarks to him.
Zhu Shiqing was depressed after this blow and originally thought of going home. The officialdom was so dark and even the students were so scheming. He might as well go back and be a teacher to spend the rest of his life.
Just as he was about to pack his bags to go home, he received a message from Wu Wan's maid who took advantage of the chaos to deliver a suicide note written by Wu Wan before her death. Then he heard the sad news that Miss Wu was seriously ill and died.
It turned out that after the incident with Zhu Shiqing, the Wu family realized that Wu Wan was old after all, and it was normal for her to fall in love. In order to cut off the hidden danger, they quickly arranged a marriage for her that had been planned for a long time and prepared to arrange for her to marry.
Wu Wan naturally refused. Although she looked gentle, she was actually very stubborn. Her ideal husband was Zhu Shiqing, and she didn't want to marry anyone else in her life.
Since the Wu family wants to force her to marry, then let her marry a corpse.
In her last letter, Wu Wan expressed her love for Zhu Shiqing sincerely, but she felt that they were not destined to be together in this life and she hoped that they could continue their relationship in the next life.
"So Wu Wan committed suicide for you, but a year later, you not only got married once, but also fell deeply in love with Ge Wei?"
Feng Yuyun glared at Zhu Shiqing with an accusing look on her face, as if she was looking at a scumbag.
Zhu Shiqing originally thought that he was very tragic, and he felt extremely bitter when he recounted the little details of his love with Wu Wan.
But when Feng Yuyun suddenly interrupted him, it seemed as if he was really sorry for Wu Wan. If they hadn't met today, he would have forgotten about Wu Wan.
"So you don't know how Wu Wan died, and you don't know why she appeared here alive?"
Fengming didn't want to comment on Zhu Shiqing and Wu Wan's relationship. She only cared about her own mission now.
Even if there are only ten whitening pills, it’s not bad. I can take them back to honor the Queen Mother. She will definitely forget about pursuing the matter of her sneaking out of the imperial capital.
At this moment, Zhu Shiqing was deeply trapped in the ideological struggle of thinking that he was a scumbag. He had no time to care about anything else for a while. When he heard Fengming's question, he just nodded.
"Ah, how pitiful Wu Wan is."
Feng Yuyun has the mind of a little girl and completely forgot about Wu Wan's abnormality that Su Wei had mentioned before. She just felt sorry for her for committing suicide for love.
"ah!!!"
Everyone was discussing the story they had just heard, when suddenly a scream came from Feng Heng's direction.
"Go away, go away, who are you? Go away, don't come over here."
"We are the ones who saved you. Don't be afraid and don't move around. Be careful not to open your wound."
It seems that Wu Wan, who faked her death and was reborn, has woken up.
