Splendid Twins

Si Yao looked at the familiar bayonet, which she gave to Lu Yuan.

"Is he... busy?"

Come to think of it, the last time Lu Yuan left, he said he would write a letter, but she hasn’t received a single one during this period of time!

When it comes to love, she always lets things take their course. If she has feelings, she enjoys the moment. If they break up, they will just go about their own business. If she is asked to think about a man all day long, that would be too unmotivated.

Lan Ying paused after hearing this and said softly:

"The master has written you a letter."

Then, Si Yao fell silent as she looked at the pile of letters on the table. Yes, a pile of letters, with a few large characters written in a flamboyant style on the envelopes:

Written by the little fairy.

Tsk, how long will she have to wait to see this...

"Get up. I don't need anyone to serve me. Go back."

Upon hearing this, Lan Ying's knees, which had just straightened up, bent again and he knelt down again, saying sincerely:

"Princess, I have already passed the clear path. If I go back, I will die."

Si Yao stared at the top of Lan Ying's head and said slowly:

"What does it have to do with me if you die?"

Lan Ying was stunned. Why was it different from what Lord Ying Ren said?

His original words: The princess is a very kind, considerate and gentle master. Serve her carefully. Your blessings are yet to come...

Si Yao saw her staring at him with eyes wide open, with a "why are you like that" expression on her face, and smiled:

"Get up, do you really want to follow me?"

The blue shadow is like a head pounding garlic:

"think."

She had the intention of testing the princess, but she did not exaggerate. Once a secret guard who had passed the open road in the secret guard station was abandoned by his master, he would be regarded as useless, and useless people did not need to live in the world...

"Okay, from now on, if I have a bite to eat, you will have to wash the dishes."

Blue Shadow: “…”

"Just kidding, what are you good at?"

Si Yao asked the person to get up and poured a cup of tea for him.

Lan Ying was flattered and said quickly:

"kill."

Si Yao: “…”

This does not quite meet her employment standards. After thinking for a while, she said softly:

"If you follow me, you must follow my rules. Don't ask questions about what you see, and don't spread it. Just do whatever you are told to do."

"I obey my orders!"

"Let's make do with this tonight and show up another day when we have a clear path."

"Yes, princess."

Si Yao raised her hand to stop him:

"Call me sister, so as not to scare people."

"Yes, ma'am."

Si Yao originally wanted her to call him Sister Yao, but the two words kept turning on his tongue and he just couldn't say them. Sister Yao, Sister Yao...

Lan Ying leaped directly onto the beam, adjusted his posture and prepared to close his eyes to rest, but Si Yao couldn't bear it. No matter how he lived in the past, now that he followed her, he had to do what he wanted.

"Come down and sleep here. No one comes into my room."

Si Yao moved the couch next to the bed to the desk, and found some bedding from the cupboard. She also took out a set of clothes she had never worn and handed them to her, pointing to the bathroom next door.

Lan Ying was a little at a loss, but kept Si Yao's words in mind, took it obediently and left the house.

The room was quiet, the candlelight flickered, and the air was filled with a faint fragrance. Si Yao sat on the other side reading the letter Lu Yuan wrote to her.

In the first letter, he said that he encountered an assassination on his way back, and a traitor leaked his itinerary to his opponent, so he didn't dare to write to him during this period, for fear that someone would find out about Sijia Village. At the end of the letter, he wrote: One day without seeing you feels like three autumns...

In the second letter, he returned to the palace to meet the young emperor. He did not do any of the assigned homework, but followed the eunuchs to fight crickets. He was punished to write and copy articles, and he also punished several dishonest ministers. The last sentence of the letter was: My thoughts of you are like the full moon, which loses its brightness every night...

The third letter said that he had found out who betrayed him, and he was playing the long game to catch a bigger fish. After catching the opponent's handle, he fought back fiercely... The last sentence: The exquisite dice are filled with red beans, and I miss you deeply, do you know...

In the fourth letter, someone in the court suggested that he marry a concubine, so he issued an edict to grant these officials several beautiful concubines. After that, no one dared to make such a heart-breaking statement... The last sentence: I have someone I miss, who is far away...

The fifth letter tells him about his day's schedule. In the morning, he led the little emperor to attend court, and after the court he handled state affairs. In addition to issuing decrees, he also had to win over some old ministers, get rid of parasites, and support new nobles... The last sentence: My thoughts of you are like flowing water, there is no end to it...

The sixth letter: Lan Ying was sent to run errands for her. Together with her indenture, there is no such thing as a servant with two masters. From now on, Lan Ying belongs to her... The last sentence: The flowers are blooming on the roadside, you can return slowly...

.........

Si Yao's heart was moved when she saw the end. Lu Yuan's consideration made her happy, especially the last letter, which contained more than ten silver bills of various denominations, totaling several thousand taels. Lu Yuan told her to spend the money as she pleased, and if anyone upset him, he would let Lan Ying deal with them. She didn't need to worry about anyone, because he had people in the capital...

To be honest, Si Yao was deeply moved. The temptation was too great. A man with money, power and good looks, she couldn't resist...

She just likes to have money to spend and spend it freely...

The faint candlelight flickered, and Si Yao's lips curled up, outlining a sweet arc. When she was done, she would go to see Lu Yuan...

When Si Yao got up in the morning, Lan Ying was gone, but she didn't care. When she left the house, Liu Niang had just prepared breakfast, a plate of steamed dumplings and a bowl of egg soup. Liu Niang looked at Si Yao and hesitated to speak. Si Yao pretended not to see it. When she finished breakfast and was about to leave, Liu Niang called her:

"Yaoyao, where are you going?"

Si Yao turned around and looked at her, raising his eyebrows:

"Go out and see what's going on?"

Somehow, Liu Niang suddenly couldn't speak, and could only say awkwardly:

"It's okay, be safe."

Si Yao nodded and left. She knew that Liu Niang wanted to plead for Si Lao Er, but she saw through it but didn't say anything. Since they couldn't live together, then they shouldn't. It was sticky and no one would be happy.

Early in the morning, the village chief led people to carry the corpse to the county government office. Along the way, more and more people came to watch the excitement, and when they arrived at the county government office, it was already crowded.

When Magistrate Li heard that someone was killed, he immediately went to the court for interrogation. The village chief and the villagers had their own oral statements, as well as evidence and witnesses. Mrs. Si was so crazy that she could not answer any questions. Now all that was left was Liu Daoba's background.

Coincidentally, there were villagers from Shuangxi Village outside. When they saw that it was the bully from their village, they immediately stood up and listed the man's evil deeds.

One person led several others, and finally people from nearby villages pointed out:

Liu Daoba relied on his strength to bully men and women and do evil things all year round. He often used despicable means to harm girls and young wives in the village.

Now, evil will be punished by evil, a big scourge in the village has been eliminated, and the villagers of Shuangxi Village are relieved of the huge mountain that was weighing on their heads.

In the end, Magistrate Li ruled that Si Yao and Liu Daoba had brought it upon themselves, and although Si Pozi could be spared the death penalty for manslaughter, she could not escape punishment for her crime of living death, and was exiled 600 miles away to serve in a gravel pit for five years.

The village chief thought it would be better to sentence her to death. A crazy woman who is almost sixty years old should be exiled six hundred miles away. She would probably be dead by the time she gets there...
