In a vast and desolate land, a woman was lying alone on the ground. The dark sky is like a sign before heavy rain.
"Qing'er, Qing'er, wake up, the ground is cold." A female voice suddenly sounded, gentle and ethereal.
Hearing the sound, the woman lying on the ground slowly stood up and looked around blankly.
"Qing'er." The voice sounded again.
"Mom, is that you? Mom, Qing'er misses you so much." The woman looked around excitedly, trying to find the source of the sound.
"Qing'er, Mom misses you too. It's all my fault that she left you so early, so that now there's no one to speak for you." The female voice sounded again, her words full of self-blame.
"Mom, Qing'er really wants to go to Mom, but Qing'er can't." The woman's tears flowed down uncontrollably.
"Qing'er, in life, there will inevitably be ups and downs and sufferings. You have to believe that no matter how heavy the rain the night before, the sun will still rise the next day. The ups and downs and sufferings are temporary, and the light is ahead and will always exist. You Follow your heart, don't hesitate, don't hesitate. Mom believes that you know what you want, and I also believe that you will definitely get happiness and joy." The gentle female voice sounded again, this time full of encouragement and wishes. .
A beam of light shot from the horizon, and a figure followed the light source. Although I have only seen that handsome face once, it has been deeply engraved in my heart.
"Miss, miss." Lian'er called the sleeping Liu Yunqing over and over again. Lian'er was worried about Liu Yunqing, so she waited beside Liu Yunqing after he fell asleep. In a daze, he heard Liu Yunqing's crying. When he went to check, he found that Liu Yunqing was still sleeping. He thought it was a bad dream.
"Lian'er, I dreamed about my mother's kiss." Liu Yunqing opened her eyes and said with a choked voice.
"Miss, don't cry anymore. Your eyes are swollen from crying. Madam has a spirit in heaven, and she doesn't want to see young lady so sad." Lian'er wiped away Liu Yunqing's tears.
"Well, Lian'er, you go back to your room and sleep. I have something to do tomorrow and I need you to do it." Liu Yunqing stood up and walked to the bed.
"Miss, let Lian'er stay here. Lian'er is worried about Miss." Lian'er hurriedly stepped forward and spread the quilt.
"Don't worry, nothing will happen. Only after you have rest can you help me get things done." Liu Yunqing squeezed out a smile to reassure Lian'er.
"Then Lian'er goes to rest." Lian'er left the room and closed the door for Liu Yunqing.
Liu Yunqing was lying on the bed, thinking about what was going to happen next. "Mother, Qing'er will be fine, don't let mother worry." Liu Yunqing said to himself.
Early the next morning, Lian'er came to Liu Yunqing's room early. After waiting for Liu Yunqing to wash up, he brought breakfast to Liu Yunqing.
"Lian'er, there are three things you need to do today. The first is to go to the drugstore to buy Mongolian sweat medicine, the second is to know the way to the Hou's Mansion, and the third is to inquire about the changing time of the guards at the back door." When Lian'er put down his breakfast, Liu Yunqing Ask Lian'er to close the door, and then give instructions in a low voice.
"Yes, Miss, Lian'er will take care of it." Lian'er promised immediately without asking the reason.
After Liu Yunqing finished breakfast, Lian'er left with peace of mind. Regarding Lian'er leaving the house alone, the servant guarding the door did not question her too much. Lian'er didn't return to the mansion until around noon. After inquiring about the changing time of the guards at the back door, Lian'er came to Liu Yunqing's room.
"Miss, I didn't buy the Mongolian sweat medicine, but I bought a similar medicine, but the onset time is a little later. Lian'er has walked all the roads from Liu Mansion to Hou Mansion. I guarantee you will recognize it. The back door changes the guard. The time is three o'clock." Lian'er came to Liu Yunqing and replied in a low voice.
"Well, okay, put the medicine away and don't let others find it." Liu Yunqing nodded with satisfaction.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, when the changing of the guard was over, Lian'er came to the back door carrying a food box.
"Wang San, Chen Si. You have worked hard during the night vigil. Miss asked Lian'er to make soup. You can drink it to warm your body." Lian'er said as he opened the back door, opened the food box, put the soup in a bowl, and handed it to them respectively. To two servants.
"Thank you, Miss. Thank you, Miss Lian'er." The two of them thanked each other quickly and drank the soup without any doubt. Lian'er was worried about the efficacy of the medicine, so another person filled a bowl for them. After watching them finish drinking, Lian'er left.
"Miss, they have already drank, let's go." Lian'er came to Liu Yunqing's room.
"Then let's go." Liu Yunqing picked up the packed bag and walked out.
The two came to the back door and opened it. The two servants had already fallen asleep. Lian'er gently closed the back door and took Liu Yunqing to the outside of Yong'an Hou Mansion.
"Stop, no one else can get close to the Hou Mansion." The guards of the Hou Mansion stopped Liu Yunqing and Lian'er.
"We are here to redress our grievances,..." Lian'er stepped forward and said.
"Redress your grievances to the Yamen, but the Hou Mansion does not ask any questions and leaves quickly." Before Lian'er could finish speaking, the guard interrupted Lian'er and stepped forward to drive them away.
"Miss, what should I do?" Lian'er asked Liu Yunqing anxiously in a low voice while retreating. Once the servants at the back door are discovered, they will be found to have escaped. Once captured, there is no chance again.
"Xia Jingyao, you are such a heartless man. When you become the Marquis of Yong'an, you don't want me as your fiancée. I will go to the Yamen to sue you. If the Yamen dare not take care of you, I will go to the imperial capital to file a complaint." Liu Yunqing suddenly shouted loudly.
Hearing Liu Yunqing's words, the guard immediately froze. In this era where women value reputation more than their lives, no woman would make fun of her reputation. The guard did not dare to neglect and quickly asked someone to report it. After He Wu got the news, he immediately came to Xia Jingyao's door and knocked on the door.
"What happened?" Xia Jingyao opened the door.
"Young Master, there is a woman in front of the mansion, claiming to be the young master's fiancée, and she also said that she wants to file a complaint against the emperor." He Wu quickly explained the situation.
"Fiancée? Interesting, bring her in. Let her stay in a guest room first, and then bring her to see me tomorrow." Xia Jingyao ordered.
"Yes, young master." He Wu agreed and went to make arrangements. Xia Jingyao didn't take it seriously and went back to his room to sleep.
The housekeeper came to the door of the mansion and took Liu Yunqing and Lian'er into the mansion.
"Miss, it's getting late. The Marquis has asked me to arrange for the young lady to stay first and see her again tomorrow. The girl's room is next door." The housekeeper took Liu Yunqing to a guest room.
"Thank you." Liu Yunqing bowed to the butler to express his gratitude.
"You're welcome, Miss. Please rest first." The housekeeper saluted Liu Yunqing and then left the room.
"Miss, why do you say that? If others find out, how can the lady get married?" After the housekeeper left, Lian'er complained, with worry in her tone.
"There is no other way. Let's take it one step at a time. You go and have a rest. I also have to think about what to do next." Liu Yunqing was also helpless, complaining that he thought too simply.
"That Lian'er retreated first." Lian'er bowed and left the room.
Liu Yunqing didn't expect that he would enter the Hou Mansion like this. Although it was different from what he thought, it was just fine if he came in. Xiao Cheng is the governor of Fuchang County, and he covers the sky with one hand in Fuchang County. Liu Yunqing thought again and again, and only Marquis Yong'an could help him. Although she didn't know Marquis Yong'an, she could only act as a doctor. This was her only chance. As long as Marquis Yong'an is willing to help, even if the engagement cannot be terminated, he will definitely be able to send her out of Fuchang County.
