Ming Lanruo stood quietly outside the residence of Lu Meng, Minister of War, with a nine-month-old belly.
The originally bustling high-ranking official's residence was surrounded by guards from the East and West factories armed with swords and uniforms, and was heavily guarded.
There were bursts of shrill screams and a strong smell of blood inside, making people frightened and afraid to get close.
Ming Lanruo's bright and cold big eyes were looking straight at the red painted door.
She tightened her skirt and took a deep breath to calm her nervous heartbeat.
She has already died once, and she is back again, so what is there to be afraid of?
There is nothing better than watching your child being hung upside down and having his limbs cut off in his previous life, screaming and dying.
And is it more terrifying and painful for her to be tortured and killed by her lover with arrow after arrow?
She must meet that person today and change her destiny in her previous life!
Ming Lanruo held up her skirt and stepped forward.
She just came closer, and the cold long sword in Jin Yiwei's hand suddenly unsheathed and pointed directly at the tip of her nose: "Jin Yiwei is ordered to handle the case, and no one else can get close!"
Ming Lanruo raised her bright eyes: "Ming Lanruo, the eldest daughter of the Ming family of the Duke of Ming Dynasty, would like to see my father-in-law and pass the news on!"
The cold gazes of the imperial guards made people shudder.
But because she told her father-in-law's name, someone still came in to report her.
Not long after, Ming Lanruo heard a sharp voice coming from the door: "Hey, isn't this the eldest lady of the Ming family? What kind of wind has brought you here?"
A middle-aged eunuch in his forties, with a pale face and a gloomy face came out.
Ming Lan immediately made a blessing ceremony: "I have met Mr. He, Lan Ruo wants to meet Mr. Qian Sui."
He and the father-in-law sneered, took a look at her tall belly, and flicked the whisk: "If you are not afraid of scaring your precious fetus, just come in with me."
Ming Lanruo followed him through the door.
There were bloodstains along the way and corpses lying in the courtyard corridor.
Ming Lanruo clenched her whitened knuckles, stiffened her body and lowered her eyes around the broken corpse.
He and his father-in-law stopped, stepped aside, and said in a sharp voice: "Master Governor, the eldest lady of the Ming family has arrived."
Ming Lanruo resisted not looking at the bloody human bodies and stepped forward to salute——
"Ming Lanruo, the eldest daughter of the Ming family, has met Mr. Qiantui."
On the blood-stained snow, a tall figure in a scarlet flying fish suit looked like a ball of gorgeous and rampant fire.
The man pulled out the long knife covered with blood, wiped it slowly on the corpse's clothes, and turned to stare at her.
Cang Qiao's face is snow-white, her eyebrows are more delicate than those of a woman, and the corners of her upturned eyes are stained with sickly scarlet: "Tsk, rare visitor!"
The strong contrast makes Cang Qiao look like the noisy and violent King Asura in hell, with a strong and sinister aura.
Ming Lanruo shrank instinctively and took a step back: "Uncle......"
He and his father-in-law looked at Ming Lanruo mockingly.
Ming Lanruo's late mother Xiao and Qian Suiye both recognized the swordsman master Cen Sanniang as their adopted mother and adopted sibling.
Chitose is her real elder, and she should indeed be called uncle.
However, the Ming family was a faction of the Qing Dynasty, and they had never dealt with them in the East and West factories.
When Mrs. Xiao passed away, Ming Lanruo was still young, but she always disliked Master Qiansui for being an eunuch and embarrassing her.
Qian Suiye has always been moody, but for Mrs. Xiao's sake, he was very tolerant of her.
But this woman is quite ignorant, and she often confronts Mr. Chitose in private.
"Why didn't you say anything? The dog caught your tongue?" Cang Qiao looked at her frightened look, his eyes becoming colder and unpredictable.
Ming Lanruo smelled the strong smell of blood on the tip of her nose and suddenly said: "I... am pregnant with your child."
The air was suffocating for a moment, and everyone gasped.
Even a human Shura like Cang Qiao, whose hands were full of blood, was stunned for a moment.
"Ming Lanruo!!!" He and his father-in-law screamed with a stern expression.
Cang Qiao regained her composure, stood up and waved her hands lightly.
He and his father-in-law frowned and bowed, then led the others out of the courtyard.
In the huge courtyard, there was only blood on the ground and two people standing there.
Cang Qiao looked at her condescendingly, with a layer of morbid gloominess on her handsome face: "Ming Lanruo, do you know what you are talking about?"
Ming Lanruo looked at Cang Qiao, who had a gloomy expression in front of her.
In her previous life, she loved King Qin so much that she thought she was pregnant with his child.
After some coaxing by King Qin, she gave up the idea of marrying him and willingly entered the East Palace to become the crown prince's concubine.
She planned everything as a spy for King Qin.
Finally, the King of Qin forced her into the palace, and the prince hung her and the child in front of the palace, and chopped off the child's limbs one by one, thinking that he could threaten the King of Qin.
But King Qin sneered and shot her into a target with arrow after arrow.
She fell without a good piece of flesh under the dilapidated tower, and her brain collapsed.
The soul that left her body saw Cang Qiao coming with thousands of troops and horses with extraordinary momentum, killing those who harmed her with swords and horses.
But in the final scuffle, he went straight to her and the child's bodies, hugging them and laughing miserably and painfully.
She had never seen Cang Qiao in such a miserable state.
She used to hate him so much.
I hate his despicable status as a eunuch, I hate his appearance that is more beautiful than a woman, and I hate his mean temperament.
I hate him even more for taking advantage of his little relationship with his mother to lecture her everywhere.
But in order to make Cang Qiao useful to King Qin, she approached and used him again and again.
To this day, the nine-thousand-year-old who is inferior to one person and superior to ten thousand people has forgotten the tragic battlefield behind him.
He just held her body and whispered in her ear...the truths she didn't know, and the shocking secrets hidden in him.
Only then did she realize how much this man, whom everyone feared, had done for her and how much he had borne.
She was so shocked by the sight of the ghost that had left her body that she burst into tears.
He was still in a state of confusion and disbelief when he saw a heavy arrow shooting towards him with a heavy murderous intent.
She knew that Cang Qiao could avoid it, he was the number one master in the inner court.
Can......
But he closed his eyes indifferently and calmly allowed the arrow to pierce his throat.
The moment Cang Qiao's hot blood was sprinkled on her corpse's face, she could actually feel his blood being hot and sweet.
It was so hot that her soul was trembling.
And then......
When she opened her eyes, she went back to when the child was still in her belly.
Everything seemed to be a nightmare, but she also proved that it was not a dream.
So after she was reborn, she came to her door. In this life, she will never miss the person who is true to her!
Ming Lanruo pulled down her veil, revealing her bright and unparalleled face: "Why, you don't want to admit your fault?"
Cang Qiao looked at the girl in front of him, her eyes were staring straight at him.
The girl's face is fresh and tender, which is in sharp contrast to her high and bulging belly.
He looked at her and suddenly remembered another face from long ago. His pupils shrank and were stained with a layer of blood-red sinisterness.
Cang Qiao suddenly raised his head and laughed wildly: "Hahahaha..."
The voice is sharp and cold, and the laughter is filled with inner strength, which makes people feel chills on their backs and a sudden pressure on their faces.
Ming Lanruo pursed her lips, endured the pain in her throat and heart, and stood looking at him steadily.
The next moment, Cang Qiao suddenly raised his hand and pressed her roughly against the pillar with a bang, and licked the corners of his scarlet lips——
"Come on, good boy, tell me how a eunuch got you pregnant with a child, or did you know some secret that you shouldn't know, eh?"
The vicious murderous look in his eyes seemed to tear her into countless pieces in the next second.
Ming Lanruo froze.
This development is different from what she thought. Is there something wrong?
The murderous intent in Cang Qiao's eyes actually seemed like he wanted to kill people and silence them?! This chapter has been completed!
