After the marriage was severed, I fled with my golden finger to protect my mother

So Xu Qingrong and his family found Xu Qinghe and told him how Yuxiu and her daughter were beaten to death by the Xu family in exchange for food. He also said that it was he, the village chief, who stood up for justice, drove away those people, and finally buried the mother and daughter.

With such a favor in mind, Xu Qinghe was unable to say no when Xu Linzhi wanted to recognize him as her godfather.

Not only did he adopt Xu Linzhi as his adopted daughter, he also treated Xu Qingrong's family as his benefactors.

As Xu Qinghe's adopted daughter, Xu Linzhi naturally got what she wished for and married into the prince's mansion in a grand manner.

However, Crown Prince Qi Siyu also said that although he loved her the most, as a person who was about to sit in that position, he had to balance the forces in the court, so he soon married several concubines into the palace.

These concubines were either the daughters of the prime minister or the talented ladies from noble families. They were all beauties with both literary talent and proficiency in music, chess, calligraphy and painting. How could they take a dry country bumpkin like Xu Linzhi, who knew nothing, seriously?

Either this concubine would trip her up today, or she would be framed by another concubine tomorrow. Xu Linzhi had originally thought that as long as Qi Siyu ascended the throne, she, the Crown Princess, would be able to become the Queen. By that time, she would be second only to the Emperor and above everyone else, and would naturally be able to deal with these coquettish and slutty women.

But she didn't know that her dream of becoming the queen would last long before the great general Xu Qinghe was poisoned to death.

So Xu Linzhi's beautiful dream was completely shattered. On the night of Xu Qinghe's death, she was pushed into the lotus pond in the mansion and ended her life hastily.

No one knew what was going on, but Xu Linzhi soon returned to her childhood. Although she no longer remembered what happened in her previous life, she would occasionally dream about some major events that happened in her previous life.

Although many things in this life are different from those in the previous life, Xu Linzhi still firmly believes that those things in the previous life really happened.

"Sister... please stop talking nonsense. I'm really worried..."

Boss Xu rubbed the goose bumps on his arms and stammered:

"Otherwise, go call the old doctor in and he'll give you a few injections..."

"Yes, you little kid, don't talk nonsense. Although we have never seen His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, we have never heard of his death. If someone..."

After all, Xu Qingrong had been the village chief for so many years, so he was naturally more cautious than his children. He immediately glared at Xu Linzhi, signaling her not to talk nonsense.

If other people heard this, they would suffer the consequences if they dared to curse the prince openly.

Besides, how could Xu Qinghe become a great general? He saw with his own eyes that he was knocked off the cliff. Falling from such a high place, he would be crippled if not dead. Even if he was really rescued, it was impossible for him to be so lucky as to be adopted as the son of an old princess, right?

Xu Qingrong shook his head in amusement. If this was some trivial matter in the past, he would definitely believe that what Xu Linzhi said was true. However, this matter was too unbelievable, and there were several important points that did not match up.

For example, Yuxiu and Cui, these two people were not dead at the beginning, and they caused such a big incident of splitting up the family and severing the relationship.

"Dad, I'm not talking nonsense!"

Xu Linzhi's tears fell even harder, and she firmly believed that everything she didn't say was true.

Thinking that Xu Linzhi had suffered a great deal this time, it was very likely that her brain was damaged by the carriage, so she started talking nonsense.

"Okay, okay, you're not talking nonsense. Now that you've woken up, why don't we go back now?"

Xu Qingrong coaxed helplessly, planning to take the person back first. It was not a good idea for him to live in the clinic all the time. Besides, it was too expensive. It was not as comfortable as being at home and saving money.

The brothers of the Xu family also agreed with their father's words and began to pack up and prepare to take their people home.

"No! Don't go back..."

When she heard that they had to go back, Xu Linzhi started screaming.

"I can't go back, I can't go back..."

Her eyes were filled with fear, and when she saw her father and brothers looking over, she grabbed Brother Xu, who was closest to her, and clenched her fingers tightly around the hem of his clothes. Just as she was about to speak, she heard footsteps outside.

"Oh, girl, you finally woke up. Your father and brothers were scared these past two days... Why are you crying? Is your wound still hurting..."

As the door was pushed open, a clinic clerk walked in from outside. He was a young man wearing a half-worn cotton coat.

"Haha, this kid was also frightened. He started talking nonsense as soon as he woke up. Don't mind it, little brother."

Xu Qingrong was afraid that Xu Linzhi would say something inappropriate in front of outsiders, so he quickly walked over to greet her and gave his sons a look, asking them to help keep an eye on the situation.

The clinic clerk came to deliver medicine, but was quickly sent away by Xu Qingrong with a few words.

In just a short while, Xu Linzhi wiped away her tears with the help of her eldest brother, took a few long breaths, and calmed herself down.

"Dad, brothers, do you know why I woke up so quickly?"

Xu Linzhi was shocked and frightened, and tears burst out of her eyes again, forcing several members of the Xu family who originally did not believe her to rethink what she had just said.

"Because in the dream, there were many men in black chasing us and killing my mother..."

When she finished telling the rest of the story while sobbing again, the people in the Xu family were so frightened that they turned pale.

"So, those people are still hiding in our yard, just waiting for us to return and fall into their trap?"

Xu Qingrong's face turned very pale. Logically speaking, their family had only just arrived in the capital for a few days. They were not very familiar with the capital and usually stayed at home. It shouldn't be possible for someone to put their family to death, right?

Could it be that Xu Linzhi is talking nonsense again?

But seeing how sadly she was crying, she shouldn't be willing to joke about her mother's life, right?

"They killed people and didn't leave just to wait for us to return and then wipe out our family."

Xu Linzhi gritted her teeth. At the end of this dream, when the family returned from the clinic and discovered their mother Huang’s tragic death, those men in black jumped out from the inner room and started hacking with knives without saying a word.

They are all very skilled killers, and ordinary people like them are not likely to be able to resist them.

Several people fled in panic, but before they ran out of the yard, Xu Linzhi watched his father and brothers die miserably in front of his eyes.

Finally, when the man in black raised the knife and slashed at her, she finally woke up in extreme fear.
