After Wang An fell into coma, he had a lengthy dream.
In the dream, he took Shi Tong to play in the countryside. Unexpectedly, there was a heavy downpour. Just as he and Shi Tong were hiding under the cliff in embarrassment, a girl came from the forest and handed them a handful of
Umbrella.
That girl was Wang Xiu. She stood in the rain and handed over the umbrella she was holding. He also saw her appearance clearly. She was a very beautiful woman, plump and charming.
Just when he was stunned, Shitong had already taken the umbrella.
He looked at Wang Xiu standing in the rain and asked quickly: "What about you?"
Wang Xiu pointed not far away and said, "I live over there and will be home soon."
After saying that, he turned around and left.
But when he saw her leaving like this, he was very unwilling to do so. He always felt that it shouldn't end like this. So he stopped her and said, "Wait a minute."
Wang Xiu turned around and said calmly: "What?"
He grabbed the umbrella, rushed into the rain, and handed it out.
That was perhaps the most correct decision he had ever made in his life. Even in his dream, he still remembered the excitement and trembling mood as fresh as ever.
"You'll get wet if you walk back like this, so you'd better bring your umbrella."
The moment Wang Xiu took the umbrella, he smiled.
That smile was like a mandala blooming in the rain. He was so fascinated and couldn't extricate himself.
Then Wang Xiu invited them to the villa to take shelter from the rain, and asked his servants to make ginger tea for them.
He lied that his surname was Chen and his name was Chen An.
Wang Xiuze said that his surname was Yang and his name was Yang Si.
He still clearly remembered that it was sunny after the rain and the sun was shining in the yard.
She was wearing a plain green dress, her hair was pulled up casually, and she didn't even wear a hairpin. She only had pearl earrings with pendants the size of lotus rice, and a pearl bracelet on her wrist.
The servants set up a desk for her, and she painted in the courtyard, her eyes as calm as water, and her expression as calm as the moon. It seemed that this was just a dispensable pastime.
And when he looked at it from a distance, the red lanterns under the eaves, the green radish hanging from the bonsai, and the winding grape trellis behind her all seemed to be the foil. In his eyes, she was so carelessly beautiful, yet vivid.
It must be so bright and moving.
So after leaving the villa, he did not return to Beijing. Instead, he bought a small courtyard nearby and lived there.
Shitong saw that he was distracted and secretly brought two women back to him, but he was very disgusted and beat and scolded Shitong for this.
It was not until three days later that Shitong brought her.
After he was knocked unconscious with poison, he wrapped him in a blanket and put it on his bed.
When he found out, he immediately wanted to settle the score with Shitong, but because he was worried about her health, he suppressed it.
But just as he untied the rope from her body, he saw her turning over and sitting up, looking at him sharply.
Her eyes were as sharp as a knife, and her tightly pursed lips showed her anger. He tried to explain, but unexpectedly she said: "Even if you didn't mean to kidnap her, but your subordinate acted like this without reporting it to you first, then
It proves that he has done it many times and you have accepted it."
After she finished speaking, she pushed him away in disgust.
He was shocked at first, but then he felt ashamed. In front of the woman he liked, he didn't want her to know the unbearable side of himself, and even wished he could erase it all.
So he quickly said: "It's okay, I have never forced myself on any girl, I swear!"
But she sneered: "Really? How about you let me go now?"
He saw the anger in her eyes, mixed with deep disgust. He knew that he couldn't let her go. If he did, he would never be able to explain it in his life.
So he confessed his identity and said: "As long as I want to, they will throw themselves into their arms, so why should I bother?"
"Believe me, I really don't."
But Wang Xiu just looked at him calmly and sneered: "So what? What does it have to do with me? I only know that your people are so disgusting, including you!"
Then she clapped her hands, and soon someone escorted Shitong in.
In front of him, she beat Shitong half to death with an inkstone and ordered the guards to take him to the government.
It was also at that time that he learned that Shitong had previously arrested a nearby farm girl, and she had pretended to be captured in order to lure out the murderer behind the scenes.
But in fact, she had already arranged for him, and she was just waiting for an order to arrest him and bring him before the officials.
But she didn't expect that he would be King An.
They broke up unhappy like this, and when he went to the prison to redeem Shitong, he found out that she was actually Wang Shaofu's daughter, the daughter of the Wang family who was in the prison and was rescued by the Wang family at all costs.
She was married before and abandoned her husband's family when their family was in trouble.
How could a woman like this deserve his attention?
He tried hard to convince himself to sneer, but he couldn't help but secretly pay attention to her news.
She knew that she ordered her personal servant to deliver banknotes to Lu Yunhong thousands of miles away, that she had been secretly investigating the case of the Yellow River bursting its banks, and that there was a scholar who often went to look for her, but she avoided seeing him...
In the end, he couldn't help but win over the scholar, and then because of jealousy, he turned the scholar into a plaything that he could control at will.
In the palace, the prince became more and more violent and got angry at every turn.
The princess took advantage of the fact that she had a son and didn't care about the prince's affairs at all. At this moment, his father brought back a woman.
He knew that his opportunity had come, but Wang Xiu left Beijing at this time and went to Wuxi.
He chased after him regardless, but for the first time he saw Wang Xiu's cruelty. She could walk two streets with Lu Yunhong, but she was unwilling to have a meal with him.
She could incite the people to write a joint letter to Zhou Xu and recommend Lu Yunhong to be the head of the academy, but she was unwilling to read the letter he wrote.
He finally couldn't help but laugh at her. If he was so reluctant to leave, why did he leave in the first place?
Wang Xiu smiled and said, "Does coming out mean abandonment?"
Then he watched her cry and walk into the rain, feeling so distressed that he couldn't let it go for a long time?
From then on, he refused to ask about her past and deceived her back to the capital on the grounds that there was progress in the Yellow River bursting case.
After returning to Beijing, he knew that Hui Concubine wanted to find cooperation with ministers in the court, so he took the bait. And he got a very shocking news, that is, the prince was traumatized when he was young, which led to frequent attacks of madness, and the reason turned out to be
Afraid of snakes.
No one knows better than him why the prince is afraid of snakes, and he has completely found a way to deal with the prince.
If anything, he later understood that Lu Shouchang's death was a hurdle that Lu Yunhong and Wang Xiu could never overcome.
So from the moment he plotted against the Wang family, he and Wang Xiu also decided that there would be no possibility. Unfortunately, all he wanted at that time was to imprison her and cut off her arms so that she could only rely on him.
But she forgot that she was such an independent person, and she never thought of relying on anyone. When he used the death of the prince to plot against the Wang family, making her father angry and angry with the Wang family, she had actually noticed it.
That's why when he went to pick her up at the village, she seemed so calm and followed him without saying anything.
In his dream, King An laughed unconsciously.
Look, how stupid he used to be, as long as she was willing to lie, he was willing to believe her.
So when he was defeated later and was beheaded in the palace, there was nothing surprising.
It's just a pity that when his consciousness fell into darkness and he felt like he was falling into a bottomless abyss...she shouldn't have come.
How could he let such a good opportunity pass?
But when he was dragging her, desperately trying to pull her to be buried with him, he only felt a light touch on his hand, and the person he was holding tightly was only a pair of hands...
"Wang Xiu!" he roared angrily, looking unwillingly at her face that was gradually moving away.
She also looked at him, the corners of her mouth slightly pursed, with a sarcastic expression of coldness and hatred.
It turns out...she has never loved him!
In the darkness, a pair of big hands clasped her waist firmly, and the man's entire face was in shadow. He couldn't see clearly, but he knew someone was going to take her away.
King An kept struggling and roared at the top of his lungs until he suddenly woke up.
At that time, his breathing was rapid, and his eyes were full of resentment and pain. How could she dare to leave him like this?
Wang Xiu?
How dare you?
An Wang clenched his fists, tears poured out of his eyes. He thought angrily, the pain was difficult to relieve, and he even wanted to kill everyone related to her because he couldn't think of the man who took her away.
