Quick Wear: The Wronged One Becomes Rebellious

It was obvious that the collapse was caused by problems in the construction of the Great Wall, which could not withstand the vibration of the earth's turning over. However, the police did not dare to admit it and pinned such a serious crime on a woman.

It must be said that the Great Wall was collapsed by her crying.

Cai Qing now felt so aggrieved that she burst into tears.

In order to report to their superiors, the officers did not kill Cai Qing. Instead, they tied her up next to a big pit and asked her to accompany her deceased husband for the last time while waiting for their superiors to send someone to make the final decision.

Anyway, the Great Wall was knocked down by Fan Xiliang’s wife crying, and it has nothing to do with them.

Only one day later, the border guard sent by the higher authorities arrived. Facing the culprit pushed in front of him by the officer, the border guard took a few more glances and did not immediately make a conclusion.

Cai Qing had almost cried all her life, but she still couldn't explain this huge injustice. However, her originally dirty face was washed clean by her tears.

The dejected and tearful woman sat on the ground. There was a unique kind of broken beauty in her, which made Bian Hu feel warm in his heart.

He had Cai Qing released first and gave her a chance to tell her story.

Cai Qing told her story in a hoarse voice, hoping that this fat old man who looked to be almost fifty years old could clear her name.

The fat old border guard was very proud to fulfill Caiqing's wish. He said that the wife of the Fan family moved the gods, who could not bear to see Fan Xiliang buried alone in the borderland, and granted Caiqing permission to collect Fan Xiliang's body and find another precious place to bury her late husband.

Fan Xiliang's household registration was here, and Cai Qing did not dare to use her own name to claim to be Fan Xiliang's wife. She had to reluctantly erect a monument for Fan Xiliang in the identity of Meng Jiangnu. This matter immediately spread in the border area.

Many people have visited Fan Xiliang's tomb and learned that he had a weak but strong wife named Meng Jiangnu.

The entertainment during the hard labor turned around again. It turned out that Meng Jiangnu, who came thousands of miles to find her husband, missed her husband so much that the God was moved. He sent a dragon to push down the Great Wall so that Meng Jiangnu could see Fan Xiliang for the last time.

Wow, this is so touching!

However, before Cai Qing's tears had dried, the Border Guard revealed his true face and tried to take Cai Qing by force.

Cai Qing looked at the border guard who could be her grandfather, and she endured it again and again.

But the border guard wanted to transfer her household registration, and he even wanted to take her as a concubine.

Cai Qing was trapped in her own lies one after another.

As soon as the household registration was adjusted, her identity as not Meng Jiangnu would be exposed, and even her identity as a slave would be exposed. The most terrifying thing was that her name was Cai Qing.

Cai Qing lowered her head and followed the border guard back to the inn where he was staying, washed up, and changed into a new dress.

The newly washed Cai Qing made the fat border guard's eyes light up. He held the person and fumbled around with his hands and feet.

Cai Qing gave Bian Hushi some sweet treats and stopped him from taking any further actions. She said she wanted to go to the river to burn paper money for her deceased husband for the last time.

The border guard agreed and went with her.

After burning a piece of yellow paper, Cai Qing's two strings of tears also fell into the fire. Fan Xiliang still had people to collect his body and burn paper for him, but what about her?

What should she do?

She stared at the frozen river surface in a daze. Not far away, someone had punched a hole in the river, and small splashes of water were coming out from time to time, probably used for fishing.

From the carriage behind him came the impatient and elderly voice of the border guard, "Are you okay? Go back quickly. It's freezing outside!"

Cai Qing forced a slow smile, but rushed towards the river quickly and dived into the ice cave.

Cai Qing thought that she could swim, and as long as she swam to the other side, she could sneak away from the river, and then she could start over. She didn't want the identity of Meng Jiangnu, nor did she want the identity of Cai Qing. She wanted to start over.

But does she still have a chance to start over?

As her consciousness was sinking, she remembered what the border guard had just said: it was terribly cold outside.

But the water under the ice is even colder.

The water-soaked cotton jacket wrapped around her, making her limbs stiff and unable to paddling, and dragged her to the dark bottom of the river.

The border guard who came out from the carriage looked at the ice hole without even a splash of water. After waiting for a long time but seeing no one climbing out, he wrapped his cloak tightly, cursed something inwardly, and turned to walk towards the carriage.

Not long after, a short story spread among the corvée team repairing the Great Wall of Shanhaiguan.

Meng Jiangnu, who came all the way from Gusu City to find her husband, finally walked to Shanhaiguan, only to learn that her husband had died. Sitting under the city, she was filled with grief and indignation: she had traveled thousands of miles to find her husband and give him winter clothes, having gone through countless hardships and dangers, but in the end she couldn't even find her husband's body. How could this not break her heart.

The more he thought about it, the sadder he became. He cried towards the Great Wall day and night, refusing to eat or drink, like a cuckoo crying blood or a cuckoo looking at the moon. His cry moved heaven and earth, and the white clouds stopped moving and the birds fell silent. He cried for ten days and ten nights, and suddenly he heard a rumbling sound from the mountains. The ground shook, sand and rocks flew, and eight hundred miles of the Great Wall collapsed, revealing Fan Xiliang's body.

Originally, this should have been a touching ending, but the beautiful Meng Jiangnu was spotted by the border guard who was sent by the superiors to patrol, and he wanted to take her away by force.

In order to comfort her deceased husband, Meng Jiangnu endured humiliation and worked hard beside the border guard. After burying her deceased husband and burning paper money, she jumped into the river to commit suicide!

For a time, the collapsed Great Wall gave way to Meng Jiangnu's moving love story. Who still remembered why the Great Wall collapsed? All they knew was the plundering border guard.

Rumors spread, and all the pressure was put on the border guard who not only failed to eat the fox but also got into trouble.

Huaping was so angry that her cheeks puffed up. "I didn't expect Caiqing to impersonate you, Madam, and call Fan Xiliang husband and wife. She is ruining your reputation!"

Gu Li didn't care. "My husband's name is Jiang Zhuo, so I took his last name. My name is Jiang Mengnu."

Gu Li and his servants also heard several versions of his suicide for love in the town, but they all ended up being basically the same.

Everything was settled. Gu Li was very interested in hearing the story that was becoming more and more similar to the legend. Such a difficult task could be accomplished!

Holding the letter Jiang Zhuo wrote to her in her hand, she smiled and said, "For this matter, we are just about to set off to Taiyin. If the journey is fast, we can still meet up with your General Jiang before the New Year and celebrate the New Year together!"

Huaping curled her lips, but didn't say anything else to upset the lady.

Outside the carriage, a crisp whip sound was heard, and the carriage slowly accelerated and moved forward.

Gu Li lifted the carriage curtain and looked at the towering Great Wall that was getting farther and farther away, muttering softly, "So that's it!"
