"Which official is he? He's so impressive!"
Amidst all the discussions, a luxurious carriage sped into the city.
Someone who knew the situation covered his mouth and whispered, "I heard that it was the Imperial Censor Shen. When he saw the lady's body, he was so angry that he vomited blood and fainted."
"Madam? How did she die..."
"Just like those women in previous years, the evil done by bandits..."
"First rape... then kill..."
"What a pity, beautiful lady..."
"Dashan, let's go." Du Yaoyao urged among the crowd.
She calmed herself down in the car. Shen Jie was so angry that he vomited blood. His credibility needs to be verified. There are too many true and false officialdoms, and there are too many dramas put on for outsiders to see.
They had had a lot of sweetness and happiness together, and he had been loyal to her alone, but Du Yaoyao could not find any reason to forgive him.
Apart from Chen Jie, she couldn't think of a second person who would dare to give her such an order and kill her.
Even if vomiting blood is true, the belated affection is cheaper than grass.
She is not a woman who can be summoned and dismissed at will.
A stud is a stud, and a ruthless person is a ruthless person. His temporary tenderness and concentration cannot conceal his heartless and ungrateful nature.
When they reached the sparsely populated official road, Du Yaoyao lifted the curtain and asked nonchalantly, "Brother Dashan, why did you want to be my groom?"
Dashan was the elder brother who saved Du Yaoyao that night. He smiled shyly, "The little gold you gave us is enough for an ordinary family to live on for several years. Qingzhou is a thousand miles away, and it is not safe for a weak woman like you to take a car. At least I have some martial arts skills, so I can protect you on the way."
Du Yaoyao is not a girl who is ignorant of the ways of the world. With Song Xingkai, and Shen Jie...she understands the attraction a man feels for a woman.
Maybe it's for beauty, maybe it's for money, or maybe it's for something else...
Dashan was a simple man. During the days when she was sick, he went hunting to earn money and persuaded his mother to stew chicken, duck and goose for her to nourish her.
He looks okay, with regular features and dark skin.
It can't compare to the appearance of Shen Jie, the chosen one.
He is not as cruel as the officials.
Du Yaoyao thought: To survive in a new place, it is inevitable to need help. It would be okay to take him to the mountain for the time being, and she would not reduce his wages.
As for feelings, I don’t want to talk about it for now.
She told Dashan the real route, "I thought about it and decided that going north is not a good idea. Let's go south to Wuxing instead."
Dashan was surprised and nodded honestly.
Du Yaoyao frowned and thought deeply. Ren Chenjie racked his brains, but he could not imagine that she would go to his hometown.
Maybe he would never think of marrying another beautiful wife half a year later.
The most powerful official under the prince is single, and the capital is bustling with activity. Those who want to cling to him, those who want to win him over... I wonder which one is so "lucky" to be his wife Shen.
Or the plot of the original book may be repeated, with the male protagonist not having a legitimate wife and having a harem full of concubines.
