Chapter 22 Chapter 22 You guys love to watch the red eyes...
Chen Ling was kicked unexpectedly and fell to the ground. The wound on her palm that had not healed completely opened again, and dark red immediately spread from the gauze on her palm. Chen Ling's hair was disheveled, and there was an abrupt black footprint on her spotless white dress. She looked so miserable and pitiful.
Cui Ya pretended to kick her, raising her foot high. Chen Ling screamed "Ah" and hid her head in her shoulder, but after waiting for a long time, the expected pain did not come. She raised her eyes and saw that Cui Ya had returned to Chen Qing's side without her knowing when, with a sarcastic look on her face. Her face turned pale and blue in an instant.
Chen Qing's eyes were dark and uncertain as she looked at the woman lying on the ground. She waved her hand and dismissed the servants around her.
In the empty courtyard, only Chen Qing, Shen Ling and Cui Ya were left.
Cui Ya couldn't stand this evil spirit and blew cold air at her with her nostrils turned up to the sky.
Chen Qing put on a new smile. She took a few steps forward and walked to Chen Ling leisurely. She leaned over slightly, pinched her jaw, and forced her head to face herself.
She leaned close to Shen Ling's ear and whispered in a whisper that only the two of them could hear: "If I had to do it again, you would still be so stupid."
Shen Ling's pupils shrank drastically, and her lips trembled as she looked at her.
"What did you say?!" Her voice was even a little sharp.
How is it possible? How is it possible that she was also reborn?!
Chen Qing tilted his head innocently, bewildered, "What did I say? I told you to do it all over again, and you're still so stupid. Last time in Mount Li, you tried to use Qingnv to harm Lady Zhao, and this time you're trying to use an evil cat to harm me."
"Chen Ling, what hatred or resentment do I have against you that would make you treat me like this?" It was like this in the last life, and it is also like this in this life.
Fortunately, although Madam Zhao was delirious when she was unconscious, she was fine after waking up. The only problem was that she had lost some of her memory, which was about what happened when she and Shen Ling fell into the crevice space.
Although I don’t know what exactly happened between the two of them, Shen Qingguang can guess it. It’s nothing more than failing to harm others and having to cover his mouth.
As for why Shen Ling didn't try to erase her memory? Of course she did, but Shen Qing was sharp-eyed and smart, and saw through her tricks.
However, the poisonous insect that could erase people's memories turned into water upon death, so Chen Qing couldn't make use of it without any evidence. Now he could make use of it just because he had the "stolen goods".
Shen Ling widened her eyes and looked carefully at the expression of the girl in front of her. Seeing that there was nothing unusual, she reluctantly breathed a sigh of relief. "I don't want to harm Madam Zhao, nor do I want to harm my sister. Sister, you think too much." She said with a pale face.
She felt a little relieved in her heart, and she said, how is it possible, how could Chen Qing be reborn, she is still the same arrogant and vicious, and still as brainless, how could she be reborn.
She subconsciously didn't want to believe that there were other people who were reborn like herself. Even though so many unexpected changes had happened today, she was only willing to believe that they were caused by her own rebirth.
But soon Shen Ling's heart began to lift again. Seeing that Shen Qing had not told anyone about her attempt to harm Madam Zhao that day for such a long time, Shen Ling thought that the insect had taken effect. But now that she actually mentioned this matter, it was obvious that she had not lost that memory!
"I'm overthinking it." Chen Qing slowly repeated these four words, saying with an ambiguous meaning, "Am I really overthinking it? But what's going on with this cat?"
Shen Ling didn't have time to think about it. She felt a numbness on her back. She suddenly turned around and saw that a black cat covered in blood had limped out of the house with difficulty. Behind it, a long blood mark was left on the ground.
There was a silver hairpin stuck on the black cat's spine. The hairpin was completely embedded in the cat's body, leaving only a part of the head with tassels outside.
Cui Ya's eyes widened, and she glared at Shen Lingzu, wanting to spit at him, "Bah! What kind of person is this? He doesn't even let his own cat go? I'm afraid my heart is bleeding! My wife! Get this guy out quickly! It's terrible!"
Chen Qing touched Cui Ya's angry face. The black cat had already crawled behind Chen Ling, and its thin claws were about to touch her. This time, Chen Ling had the strength to say, "Don't touch me!" She quickly got up from the ground and retreated three feet away.
I don't know if there was fear or disgust in that voice.
Chen Qing smiled, "You're already thinking about dealing with the 'stolen goods'. It's a pity you don't have enough brains. If it were me, I would just stab it in the neck. That way, it would die quickly without making a sound."
She tapped Shen Ling's drooping hand and asked, "Does your hand still hurt? Being scratched and bitten by a raccoon must be unpleasant, right?"
Upon hearing this, Shen Ling subconsciously put her hands behind her back. On the back of her fair hands, several scratches were particularly eye-catching, and there were also a few bite marks.
Even so, Shen Ling still refused to give in, "Sister, you're joking. The cat suddenly broke in and bumped into my hairpin. This is not my cat." As long as she didn't admit it, what could they do to her without any concrete evidence?
Shen Qing: “Oh.”
Facts have proven that even if a fool lives two lives, he will still be a fool. He won't suddenly become smarter just because he has a second chance. This is her territory. If she wants to make trouble, why does she need any evidence?
"You'an, what happened?" A Niang's voice suddenly came.
As soon as Chen Qing turned around, he smelled a soothing fragrance and saw a woman in gorgeous clothes and several servants.
Shen's mother got wind of the news from somewhere and rushed to Yunshui Garden where Shen Ling was.
Chen Qing's eyes suddenly turned red, and she threw herself into A Niang's arms, "A Niang, someone is bullying me!"
Mother Shen's usually gentle and calm face now darkened slightly. She said slowly, "Cui Ya, what happened?"
Cui Ya's eyes also turned red, and she said aggrievedly: "Madam, you don't know, my wife was bullied terribly by an outsider!"
Cui Ya described in an exaggerated way what happened to Chen Qing when she was sitting on the swing today, and how Shen Ling was caught while selling stolen goods.
Chen Qing felt very angry after hearing about his own experience, and could not help but admire Cui Ya's eloquence.
After listening to this, Mother Shen's gentle expression remained the same. She looked at the disheveled Shen Ling, then looked at her clean and delicate daughter, and touched Shen Qing's head distressedly, "Good child, you have suffered."
Seeing that only A Niang came, Chen Qing asked, "A Niang, where is Aye?"
Mother Shen said, "It is said that Army Lin, who was supposed to have died in the battle a few days ago, has suddenly returned, and your father is so happy to come to visit him."
Shen Qing was obviously stunned, "General Lin..."
When Shen's mother mentioned Lin Canjun, she was obviously in a good mood, "That's right, it's really a great joy that this child can return safely."
She continued, "The imperial edict from the Saint is about to arrive. You should go to the palace gate and wait. Mother will be here later."
Mother Shen always has a decent smile on her lips, and this smile will only become more tender when she sees her daughter.
Shen Qing still understood the truth that old ginger is especially spicy. Moreover, although Shen's mother looked gentle and kind, she was the one who had gone through the ups and downs with Shen's father.
Shen Qing felt particularly relieved to hand over the matter of dealing with Shen Ling to Shen's mother. She had something more important to do right now and had no time to bother with Shen Ling, this idiot.
If she stayed with idiots for too long, she would be afraid that she would become an idiot herself.
Shen Qing responded: “Okay, my daughter will leave first.”
Before leaving, Chen Qing asked Cui Ya to pick up the black cat that was hanging on to its last breath.
She could be of great use to this cat.
Soon, there was a bloodstain on Cui Ya's chest. She looked at the dying black cat in her arms, feeling both hatred and pity for it.
He hated it for daring to plot against his wife, frightening her and almost hurting her; on the other hand, he felt pity for it because it was a guy who obeyed his master. His master was ruthless and wanted to silence it, but he hit the wrong place, leaving it hanging on to its last breath and suffering so much.
Cui Ya took the cat to find a doctor, while Chen Qing went alone to receive the order.
Since the person before him was the future Princess Cang, and also the daughter of the powerful General of the Cavalry, the eunuch who announced the decree saw that only Chen Qing came with her servants to listen to the decree, so he did not ask any more questions and read out the decree in a shrill voice as usual.
"By the providence of Heaven, the Sage declares:
My beloved son, the Fourth Prince, Li Daoxuan, Prince of Cang, is valiant and intelligent, and I love him dearly. Now there is the daughter of the General of the Cavalry, Chen Qing, styled You'an. She is gentle and graceful. Considering her both virtuous and talented, and a perfect match for my son, I have granted you a marriage with the Fourth Prince.
From now on, you and the Fourth Prince shall love each other, observe the virtues of a wife, and build a happy marriage. Wait for an auspicious time to perform the ceremony, so that it may become a beautiful story. I decree it!"
"Your humble servant accepts the order." Chen Qing accepted the order in a proper manner, and her behavior was beyond reproach.
The eunuch who announced the decree received the reward from the Shen family and left with a smile as beautiful as a flower. Before leaving, he did not forget to say: "Madam Shen is so lucky!"
Chen Qing twitched the corner of his mouth and thought to himself: Would you like this "good fortune"?
She wrapped up the imperial edict and closed the door of her mansion, isolating herself from the uproar outside caused by the granted marriage.
Chen Qing returned to the house, put on the light blue cross-collared right-fronted robe that he had prepared, and found a green lotus jade crown to tie up all his black hair.
In an instant, the delicate young lady in the mirror turned into a handsome young man with a clear face and elegant features, about fourteen or fifteen years old.
The young man had red lips and white teeth, and his eyebrows were slightly curved, and countless emotions overflowed from his eyes. When Cui Ya saw it, her face turned red and her heart beat faster.
She only knew that the lady was extremely beautiful and the most beautiful lady she had ever seen. She never imagined that the lady in men's clothes could be so eye-catching and become a "troublemaker".
Seeing that Cui Ya was about to drool, Chen Qing smiled and pinched her soft face. Sure enough, Cui Ya's cheeks turned red like peaches.
After the master and servant changed their clothes, they went out through the side door of the mansion.
Looking down the street, I saw a young man with picturesque features followed by a fair-skinned servant dressed as a little book boy. No one knew where they came from or where they were going.
Cui Ya asked this question: "Mother, husband, where are we going?"
Shen Qing walked leisurely and said, "Go meet your future son-in-law."
Cui Ya: “Ah?”
Chen Qing patted the hat on her head, "Ah what? Hurry up and go."
"oh--"
We will get married in early October, which is neither fast nor slow.
During the preparation for the wedding, in order to prevent the big monsters from coming to her, Chen Qing felt that it was necessary for her to prepare in advance, such as doing more good deeds, or killing a few evil monsters, in order to eliminate some of the cause and effect of her own rebirth and avoid more monsters from actively looking for her.
Dealing with demons and evil spirits inevitably involves fighting. If Chen Qing encounters one that he cannot defeat, he will definitely need a helper because he is not good at fighting.
Isn't there a free labor force available for her to use right now?
Now the first case that Chen Qing is going to investigate is the case of Lin Canjun murdering his mother.
In the previous life, before the Shen family was wiped out, the hot discussions in Chang'an City were not only about Aye's successful fight against the barbarians who had been lingering on the border for many years, but also about the fact that General Lin, who was supposed to have died in the battle, suddenly returned safely ten days ago.
General Lin, as everyone calls him, is indeed a remarkable man.
General Lin's real name is Lin Yuanjiu. He is from Chang'an. His father was an ordinary soldier under General Shen. He died while participating in a battle at Guisoupo ten years ago.
Lin Yuanjiu lost his biological father when he was twelve years old. Heartbroken, he said goodbye to his mother and dressed as a man to join the army. He followed General Shen to guard the border and defend his country.
During this period, she participated in many battles, large and small, and was appreciated by General Shen for her many military achievements. She was gradually promoted to the position of military officer.
Lin's mother always claimed to the outside world that her daughter died young and she was alone. When Lin Yuanjiu visited his mother, he often braved the curfew to go home, and he had never been seen by anyone in all these years.
However, an accident happened in an instant. Her daughter's identity was discovered by her neighbors when she returned home to visit her relatives three years ago.
Because of the victory on the border, the sage was overjoyed and granted a three-day feast. The curfew in Chang'an was also lifted for three days.
At that time, the garrison troops passed by the military training ground in the western suburbs of Chang'an. After asking General Shen for instructions, Lin Yuanjiu hurried home to see his mother. Unexpectedly, he met an old lady from the neighborhood who was returning home late. Lin Yuanjiu, who had not yet taken off his armor, bumped into her head-on.
Even though Lin Yuanjiu had chosen a very late time, the curfew was rarely lifted. The old lady next door was having so much fun that she came home very late.
The old lady was also a gossip. When she saw Lin Yuanjiu's familiar face and saw that he was wearing a military uniform, it took only half a day for the news that the Lin family's wife had gone to fight in the war to spread throughout the entire Chang'an City.
The next day, upon hearing the news that the woman had joined the army to fight, the sage summoned her to the palace.
The impeachment memorials from the Censorate were like floating dust in the air, nothing more than the words of a hen crowing at dawn.
The saint did not punish him immediately, but asked him some questions. It is unknown what he asked specifically.
Secondly, Shen's father, who got the news, went to the palace overnight and tried his best to save this rare military talent against all odds.
Perhaps it was because Lin Yuanjiu had followed his father's wishes for seven years, worked diligently for the country, and made many contributions, and General Shen had tried his best to protect the girl, so the saint finally chose to pardon Lin Yuanjiu's crime and allow him to continue marching and fighting.
However, his merits and demerits offset each other, and as a punishment, Lin Yuanjiu's promotion space in this life will end here.
For this, she had no complaints and continued to fulfill her duties. She was brave and skilled in fighting, and wielded a spear more fiercely than a man.
However, something unexpected happened. Just a month ago, at a critical moment in a war, a group of soldiers were surrounded by barbarians in a deserted city. The rest of the people were fighting fiercely with the barbarians and had no time to take care of them.
When Lin Yuanjiu, who was recuperating in the army at the time, heard this, she immediately ignored her old injuries and rushed into the enemy camp alone, snatching the leader's head with one shot. The other barbarians were enraged and surrounded and chased her.
Lin Yuanjiu took this opportunity to ride in the opposite direction to divert part of the enemy troops, and it was because of this that he was able to gain a glimmer of hope for his companions.
Later, the rest of the victorious companions also rushed over, killed the barbarians around the deserted city, and rescued their companions in the city.
Later, when his companions followed the messy horse hoof prints to look for Lin Yuanjiu, they passed through a desolate forest and finally followed the traces to a cliff. Below the cliff was a turbulent river. If someone fell down, there would be no possibility of survival.
In front of the cliff, Lin Yuanjiu's gun was stuck.
Everyone knew that Lin Yuanjiu had died and sacrificed herself for her companions.
After this incident came to light, the imperial censors and officials who had originally been critical of women joining the army quietly put aside their grudges and prejudices and began to admire her.
Everyone thought that Lin Yuanjiu was dead, but only Lin's mother didn't believe it. She insisted that since she hadn't seen her daughter's body, she must still be alive.
I was even afraid that my daughter might still be unconscious in some corner, and if I went too late, she would really be beyond saving.
So Lin's mother set out for the border alone and went to the forest where her daughter fell off the cliff. She searched for two days and two nights and finally found her wounded and dying daughter in a cave somewhere in the forest.
The old woman, who was over 50 years old, supported her daughter and walked out of the wilderness step by step, found help and rescued her daughter.
In the past, when Shen Qing was at home, she had often heard about this person's deeds. Whenever Shen's father mentioned her, he praised her highly and often said that after the war was completely won, he would definitely adopt this girl as his adopted daughter and let her have another sister.
At that time, Chen Qing felt that she had to share her parents' love with one more person, and she felt jealous in her heart. Later, when she heard Lin Yuanjiu's obituary, she felt regretful and hoped that this future "sister" would return safely.
In her previous life, Lin Yuanjiu did return safely, but because of her disfigurement, she refused to see anyone since she returned home, whether it was General Shen or her former comrades.
She locked herself in the room for several months, and she never came out to express her gratitude until General Shen, who had helped her, passed away.
In the end, when Chen Qing heard from her again, Lin Yuanjiu had already been disfigured and fled after killing her mother. Overnight, she went from being a heroine admired by everyone to an ungrateful villain who murdered her mother and fled.
In the previous life, due to the loss of both parents and the shock brought by Shen Ling, Shen Qing did not pay much attention to this news, and did not know why Lin Yuanjiu wanted to kill his mother.
But if you think about it carefully, there are quite a few strange things about it.
How could Lin's mother, a weak woman barely able to even tie a chicken, have found her daughter in a forest rife with dangers and demons? Even if she had luckily found her, how could a half-blind woman in her fifties have the strength to carry a seriously injured and dying adult woman out of the forest?
Chen Qing guessed that maybe Shen's mother had died in the forest and was possessed by the evil spirit. As for why she brought Lin Yuanjiu back, it was most likely to use his identity to hide herself and make it easier for her to commit crimes.
There have indeed been several murders near the Lin family in the past few months, and the murderers have never been caught, so this just happens to be the right person.
After spending every day with the evil spirit, Lin Yuanjiu realized that her mother was the evil spirit, and she stabbed the evil spirit in anger.
The evil spirit left Lin's mother's body in pain, and in extreme anger ate Lin Yuanjiu in one gulp. Then he took the opportunity to escape before the people from Xuanji Pavilion arrived. This confirmed the fact that "Lin Yuanjiu killed his mother and fled for fear of punishment."
This can explain why Lin Yuanjiu suddenly changed his temperament and killed the mother who raised him for many years.
Now Lin Yuanjiu has returned home with his mother and refuses all favors and visits.
Therefore, the first thing she had to do was to find Li Daoxuan and ask him to take her to the Lin family. In case that Shen's mother was really an evil spirit, there would be someone to help her capture it.
Prince Cang's Mansion was very large. Fortunately, Chen Qing had been to Prince Cang's Mansion in her previous life, and she was very familiar with the path to the courtyard where Li Daoxuan lived. She also naturally knew where to climb the wall to enter the courtyard where he lived.
Cui Ya looked at the towering courtyard wall, swallowed her saliva, and said with wide eyes, "My dear, are you sure you want to climb the wall of Prince Cang's house? Won't the guards mistake us for thieves and beat us to death?"
Chen Qing said, "What are you afraid of? I'm the one climbing the wall, not you. Just listen carefully. After I climb in, you will wait for me in the teahouse opposite, drinking tea. Got it?"
Cui Ya: “Ah——”
"No, go quickly." Chen Qing pushed the man out of the dead end, then clapped his hands and prepared to climb the wall.
Li Daoxuan's courtyard was empty, with only Qiu Ren lazily sitting on the spear rack under the corridor. He seemed to have left for a short time, and even his sword was still placed on the stone table.
Chen Qing took great pains to climb up the wall, and when she saw that there was no one in the yard, she frowned.
During this time, this person always likes to practice shooting and swordplay in his yard. The sword is still on the stone table, but the person is nowhere to be seen. Could he be resting in the house?
With a doubtful attitude, Chen Qing climbed down the courtyard wall, patted the hem of her robe, and walked towards the door without hesitation.
Qiu Ren, who was taking a nap by the door, raised his eyelids and glanced at the person who came. When he smelled a familiar scent, he closed his eyes sleepily again, only his tail swinging leisurely.
Shen Qing touched the guy's head, and Qiu Ren cooperated by rubbing it against her palm.
Soon she came to the door and knocked.
After a moment, the other party's lazy voice came from the room: "Come in."
Hearing this, Shen Qing gently opened the door and closed it again.
A gust of hot, wet air hit her face, and in an instant, a thin layer of sweat appeared on the tip of Chen Qing's nose. She wiped her nose with her sleeve and looked for the source of the sound.
Li Daoxuan's bedroom is not as cold and solemn as his father's bedroom.
My father has been stationed at the border for many years, and he always exudes a calm and solemn aura. His bedroom is also decorated simply and neatly like his master, demonstrating his rigor and self-discipline.
Li Daoxuan's bedroom was the exact opposite of his flamboyant personality. The layout of the room was quiet and elegant, without any piles of gold, silver, and jewelry, nor any decorations of silk and satin. There were also unfinished calligraphy and paintings on the table. There were not many items, but they were simple and generous.
She had been to this room several times in her previous life, but those were all times when she was angry with him and wanted to settle a score with him. Chen Qing felt that she rarely came here with such calmness.
With a feeling in her heart, she walked to a room that was particularly foggy. Because several layers of white gauze were hung on the beams, the bright light blocked people's sight. In addition, there were no windows opened and no lights on in the room, so Shen Qing could not see the figures inside for a while.
She walked around a layer of gauze, and a screen suddenly appeared in front of her. The dark shadow behind the screen was the source of the fog, Yu Hu.
Chen Qing was shocked to realize that she had accidentally stepped into the other person's bathing place. She immediately raised her foot to leave. Just as she was about to call for help, she felt a chill on her back.
She looked back and saw Li Daoxuan, who had appeared out of nowhere, appearing silently behind her. There was a clear dripping sound coming from his feet, as if water was dripping from his wet hair.
The mist swayed gently with white gauze, and the white gauze swept across Li Daoxuan's slightly moist eyelashes. Before Li Daoxuan could see the person clearly, he took action the next moment.
Before Chen Qing could even utter a word, someone grabbed her neck and pulled her back. She felt a pain in her shoulder blades and a suffocating feeling that instantly made her face flush. The water rushing in from all directions couldn't stop trying to get into her mouth and nose.
She desperately slapped the hands on her neck, and in a panic, she reached for her head. She pulled out the hairpin and roughly calculated the distance in her mind, but because the feeling of suffocation became more and more serious, she had no time to think anymore. She just pinched the head of the hairpin by feeling and stabbed the other person with the tail end.
Maybe the person on the other side was in pain, or maybe it was for some other reason, but the big hand that was pinching Chen Qing's neck finally loosened its grip. The other party also broke his usual habit of showing mercy and pinched her weak shoulders to help her up from the bathtub.
Chen Qing coughed so hard that her throat was sore and her lungs hurt. Fortunately, she reacted quickly and breathed in time when she just touched the water surface, so she didn't choke on the water. But even so, it was not very comfortable.
The skin on the woman's back was already delicate, and it had been rubbed so hard against the edge of the bathtub just now that it was already burning and probably had broken.
She wiped the excess water off her face expressionlessly and looked at the culprit.
This guy seemed to have hurriedly put on a pajamas and came out of the bathtub. His black hair was wet and draped behind him, and there were tiny water droplets hanging on his long eyelashes. Against the backdrop of the water, his pair of dark pupils seemed to have tears in the corners of his eyes, about to fall.
Perhaps it was because he had been soaking for too long, or perhaps because of the large movements, his lips were rosy red from the heat, and his neck, including the large area of exposed collarbone, was covered in patches of light pink.
The beauty comes out of the bath, breathtaking.
If Chen Qing had time to appreciate it at this moment, seeing this white with pink skin, she would definitely think of the Xing kiln white glaze pot placed in the house, which was like silver and snow, with a soft luster. She always loved to hold this pot in her hands and play with it.
Li Daoxuan glanced at the familiar hairpin on his arm, then looked at Chen Qing in men's clothing, and felt silent for the first time.
He pulled out his hairpin, ignoring the bleeding on his arm, and approached the person leaning against the bathtub barefoot. "Madam Shen is so elegant that she sneaked into my bedroom in broad daylight to assassinate me."
He was bathing in the house when he heard a knock on the door and thought it was a servant coming to bring water. However, the person's footsteps were light, and it didn't sound like he was carrying anything heavy. From the sound of the footsteps, it seemed more like the person was a woman or a martial artist.
There were no women in the house, and the other party went straight to where he was bathing. Li Daoxuan vaguely saw through the white gauze that the man was dressed like a young man, and subconsciously thought he was an assassin, so he acted rashly.
But when the man pulled out the hairpin from his crown and tried to stab him, he saw the familiar hairpin and instantly thought of the young lady who broke into the house looking for the hairpin in the past, so he stopped.
Sure enough, when he saw the other person's face clearly, Li Daoxuan knew that his guess was correct.
He frowned and threw the magnolia hairpin heavily to the ground.
Chen Qing's breathing had just evened out, and seeing this, a big smile appeared on her lips. The corners of the girl's eyes were curved, but there was no smile in them at all. There was a loud "pop!", and Li Daoxuan's fair face soon had several red marks.
Li Daoxuan seemed to have not expected the other party to have such a move. He was stunned for a moment, and anger surged in his heart. He pursed his lips to restrain the urge to attack, "What is Madam Shen doing?"
Chen Qing faced the other party's anger without any fear, and said with his usual polite smile: "I'm sorry, Your Highness, I saw you suddenly dropped my hairpin, and I couldn't control my hands."
She bent down, picked up the hairpin, and put it back into her sleeve. The process was smooth and effortless, without any trace of guilt.
This was the coming-of-age gift her mother gave her. The material was the Run Sui jade that Aye specially sent back from the top of Tianshan Mountain. The texture of Run Sui jade was as hard as black iron, and the Run Sui jade with high color and texture was even rarer. Aye had spent several years looking for this palm-sized piece of material.
Later, A'niang spent a full four months and used several tools to carve it into the style of Shen Qing's favorite magnolia flower, and gave it to her personally on the day of Shen Qing's coming-of-age ceremony.
Chen Qing never expected that the hairpin that she loved to wear the most would become her weapon several times. Fortunately, the material of Run Sui jade was hard enough, otherwise this hairpin would have been broken countless times.
At this moment, Chen Qing had already started thinking about finding a weapon for self-defense. He was afraid that he would be in danger often in the future, so it was really not appropriate to wear this magnolia hairpin often.
Li Daoxuan sneered and suggested, "Since you can't control your hands, why not chop them off?"
Chen Qing frowned and shrank his neck, "Forget it, I'm afraid it hurts."
Li Daoxuan didn't want to waste time talking to her. He reached out and grabbed the bath towel hanging beside the screen. He wiped his still dripping hair with a few strokes. As he moved, the wide collar of his black nightgown opened a little more.
Chen Qing silently thought in his heart: I’m going to get a stye.
She stared at the ground and reached out to Li Daoxuan.
Li Daoxuan instantly understood what she meant and curled his lips, "There is only this one, Madam Shen, please bear with me." The implication was that there were no extra bath towels, so please help yourself.
How could the Cang Palace, which is so huge, not have an extra bath towel? You're kidding me. Chen Qing puffed out his cheeks and walked out of the bathroom, waiting for Li Daoxuan to clean himself up.
On the way, Chen Qing did not forget to hook out the Liuli Heart hanging around her neck and dangle it in front of him. When this man saw the Liuli Heart, he really became obedient, just like Qiu Ren who had retracted his fangs.
He gritted his teeth and threw the bath towel in his hand onto Shen Qing's head.
Chen Qing hooked one end of the bath towel with one finger, and threw it into the bathtub with a look of disgust on her face. The dark water stains instantly covered the entire bath towel.
Li Daoxuan frowned, opened the cabinet door on one side, and took out a new bath towel from it.
Only then did Chen Qing accept the towel and walked out with satisfaction, "I came here to discuss something. I hope Your Highness will move quickly and not keep me waiting any longer."
Li Daoxuan stared at her back for a long time, with mixed emotions in his heart. In other words, he was very angry.
He moved quickly. Chen Qing was playing with the chessboard on his desk. In just half an incense stick of time, he came out neatly dressed.
Li Daoxuan was still wearing the red clothes and black boots, but his ponytail, which was usually tied up high, was now draped behind his head. He also didn't wear his silver elbow bracelet. He looked less youthful and more charming, almost beautiful. A pair of deep and seductive eyes looked over, and his snake-like gaze was extremely evil.
Every time Chen Qing looked into his eyes, he felt that this person was extremely weird and looked like a villain no matter how he looked at him.
She began to doubt in her heart that this person came to Dongshan Temple to learn skills just to harm people, not to save the world.
But over the years, this man has been a little rebellious and casual, at most pinching people's necks and scaring others. It seems that he has not done anything bad. The people he kills are those who deserve to be killed, and even the people he kills are those who take the initiative to come and cause trouble.
The book described him as so vicious and evil, completely different from the dull and almost quiet boy in front of him.
But when Chen Qing thought of the cruel methods he used to deal with the big monster, and the sword that pierced her heart without mercy in her previous life, her mood instantly sank.
Be quiet ass.
Don't judge a book by its cover. Li Daoxuan is a dog.
