Don't panic if your home is confiscated or you are exiled, just empty the warehouse and stock u

Yuwen Long moved swiftly, grabbed the man's collar and yanked him back with a sudden tug. Suddenly, there was only an inch of space between the two men, and the atmosphere was tense.

"My dear brother, I...I don't think I have done anything offensive, right?"

Yan Laosi was in tears. He originally just wanted to find out the time when Hu Lianxue would leave the house so that he could take the opportunity to stop her and extort some money from her. He was also fascinated by such a beautiful woman.

Yuwen Long's eyes were as cold as ice, and the corners of his mouth curled up into an ambiguous smile: "You didn't provoke me, but you provoked others."

Yan Laosi was born a bandit after all, so he took advantage of the other party's inattention, prepared to attack, and took the opportunity to escape.

Before he could react, Yuwen Long came around behind him with a smile and hit him directly on the neck.

Yan Laosi rolled his eyes and fainted. His so-called "three-legged cat" kung fu seemed so vulnerable in front of Yuwen Long.

Yuwen Long put him directly into a sack and carried him back without changing his expression.

When Yan Laosi opened his eyes again, he was surrounded by an unfamiliar environment.

He found himself in a narrow earth pit, and the man who had knocked him unconscious was now humming an unknown tune leisurely, with a shovel in his hand flying, covering himself with shovelful of dirt.

Yan Laosi's body was stiff, and he didn't dare to move at all, for fear that the other party would find out that he wanted to come.

But Yuwen Long seemed to have noticed it. "If you don't tell the truth, I will bury you alive. I wonder how it feels to be buried in the soil?"

Upon hearing this, Yan Laosi turned pale and begged for mercy in a trembling voice: "My Lord, I am just an insignificant person. How could I have ever done anything that would harm others? You are so persistent in pursuing me, even wanting to take my life, which really makes me puzzled."

Yuwen Long's mouth curled up into a cold smile, and the shovel in his hand did not stop for the slightest. Instead, he dug even harder. "Oh? Really? Do you think that since you came to the capital, no one knows what you did before? What do you want to do now?"

After Yan Laosi's body was completely buried in the soil, his head was exposed. "If you don't admit it, I'm done."

"No, no, please don't, I admit it, I admit it now... To be honest, I was just attracted by the stunning appearance of the Marquis' daughter, and in a moment of confusion, I ordered those children to help... Other than that, I have no ill intentions at all!"

Seeing that he was not telling the truth, Yuwenlong shoveled a shovel of dirt on his face.

“There’s really nothing else.”

"It seems that you really are unrepentant and will not turn back until you see the King of Hell, Yan Lao Si, is that right?"

Fearing that he would be buried alive, Yan Lao Si said hastily, "Sir, I am willing to confess and only beg for your life. I do know a little-known past of the daughter of the Marquis's Mansion, and I wanted to use it as a bargaining chip to gain some personal gain, but I went astray."

"Besides you, does anyone else know about her?"

"No more." Yan Laosi seemed a little guilty.

Yuwen Long obviously didn't buy it, "Hurry up and tell me!"

"There is another person. If anything happens to me, that person will spread the news. Even if I die, the news will still be known to everyone. So...so you can't kill me."

Yuwen Long then stopped what he was doing and asked, "Can't die?"

Then let him live a life worse than death.

Yan Laosi originally wanted to save his life, but he didn't expect to accept something more painful than death.

All kinds of harsh punishments will not leave any marks on people's bodies, but will make people unable to live or die.

After receiving this kind of punishment, he realized that the other party already had all the information on him. It was useless for him to hide it, so he had to tell everything, even revealing the names of his accomplices.

Yuwenlong led his men to capture all his accomplices, and all the bandits were finally arrested.

Without going through the Ministry of Justice, several people were directly sentenced to death by hanging and executed immediately.

As an official of the Ministry of Justice, Fu Rongxuan also felt very strange about this. Could there be some fishy thing going on?

But his intuition told him not to worry about these things. They were all criminals who had committed crimes and they deserved the punishment they received.

But he still found a way to take over the task and personally escorted them to the execution.

Perhaps knowing that their death was approaching, several people began to discuss without any scruples.

"It's all your fault for coming up with such a bad idea. Now we're all going to die."

"You died peacefully. Do you know how much I suffered? Who knew that woman's subordinates were so powerful?"

"They are now the daughters of a marquisate. Who are we? How can we defeat them?"

"I heard that the damn girl is going to get married. I don't know what kind of sucker she is. Does she know what she got?"

Fu Rongxuan heard all these discussions. He seemed to be aware of them, but he didn't dare to believe that what they said was true.

Fu Rongxuan couldn't hold back any longer and said in a deep voice, "No noise allowed!"

"Sir, we are all going to die, why are we not even allowed to talk? Didn't we agree that we would have a final meal?"

Fu Rongxuan clenched his fists, his knuckles turned white, as if he had expended a huge amount of energy.

"Why? Are you also in awe of that Marquis' daughter? I advise you to be more sober! Do you know her past?"

Thinking that he was about to die, Yan Laosi became more outspoken and began to speak foul language.

"Shut up!"

Fu Rongxuan looked around. He was the only one near the prison van, and he was the only one who could hear clearly what the others were saying.

When they arrived at the execution site, Fu Rongxuan drew out his sword and slapped them in the face, "Don't say anything you shouldn't say."

When he was executing several people, he deliberately loosened the ropes, leaving them hanging in the air, allowing them to experience the feeling of being about to die.

"How is it? Do you still think that death is such an easy thing?"

In the past, he would have handled every matter impartially and with an iron face. However, things are different now. An unstoppable flame of revenge is burning in his chest, devouring his former calmness and rationality.

These people suffered great pain before their death and only died half a quarter of an hour later.

According to the rules, the bodies of several people would be handed over to their families for burial, but Fu Rongxuan did not do that. Instead, he threw them directly into a mass grave and whipped them a few times before he felt relieved.

After a long time, Jiang Nianwei stepped lightly into Hu Lianxue's residence. She saw the soft light and shadow in the house, reflecting her face which was gradually recovering.

Hu Lianxue was sitting by the window at this moment, stirring a bowl of warm porridge in her hands, with a faint smile on her face.

"I came here to tell you a good news. That person has been eliminated. You don't need to worry about those things happening anymore."

Hu Lianxue heard this, a trace of relief flashed in her eyes, and she gently put down the spoon in her hand, "Miss Jiang, after this incident, I have realized that if I don't want others to know, I'd better not do it myself. They will know about this sooner or later. Therefore, I decided to tell my parents everything first, and then explain the whole story to Master Fu, so that I can feel at ease."

"As long as you have made up your mind, I will support you."

It must have taken a lot of courage for her to say this.

"Thank you, Miss Jiang."

She prepared dinner herself that day, and the whole family gathered together to eat.

The old lady had a kind look in her eyes, as if she could see into people's hearts. She waved her hand gently, asking the servants who were serving beside them to quietly withdraw, leaving only their family of four.

"Lianxue, do you have something to tell us?" Leng Shiyun was sharp-minded and noticed something unusual.

"Yes, I want to tell my parents and grandmother about the days I lived after we were separated."

Although her life was poor, at least her adoptive parents taught her to read and write, so she lived a happy and fulfilling life in the first ten years.

At that time, people in the village often came to propose marriage, but my adoptive parents always refused.

"My family loves Xue, she has lofty ambitions, and she is not a match for an ordinary family. Her destined partner should be a scholar who is well-read and has great ambitions. You are not a good match."

Hu Lianxue does not seek passionate love, nor does she envy the wealth and glory within the high walls and deep courtyards. She only wishes for a peaceful life, to stroll leisurely on the country roads, and to share simple meals with her adoptive parents.

Under the foothills dappled by the afterglow of the setting sun, the quiet village was suddenly shrouded in an ominous cloud.

A group of bandits, like wolves escaped from hell, roared out from the mountains and forests, tearing this peaceful place into pieces.

Their arrival not only brought fear and despair, but also turned the past peace into ashes.

This group of bandits kidnapped all the girls who were slightly pretty.

Her adoptive parents asked her to hide, so she hid in a rice jar.

However, she witnessed with her own eyes that the bandits killed her adoptive parents, and she was completely powerless. In the end, even though they protected her with their lives, Hu Lianxue was still taken to the bandit camp.

In this troubled world, beauty without strength becomes a sin, making people covetous.

She sobbed as she recounted the painful past.

When Leng Shiyun heard this, her heart was torn as if by a knife. The pain as if thousands of arrows pierced her heart surged into her heart. Her tears burst out and she could no longer hold them back. She could only sob.

"My son, my poor daughter..."

No wonder she said she didn't want to get married, this was the reason.

Nan Rongyi, a marquis and a man of iron and blood, was also touched by this scene and his eyes were slightly wet.

"Dad and Mom, Lianxue has found a peaceful place now. Whatever my heart desires, I am happy. I don't seek wealth and honor, and I don't think about the past. I just want a peaceful home. If you think my behavior is a disgrace to the family and want to drive me out of the house, Lianxue will not have the slightest resentment. I just hope that my parents are healthy and have no regrets in this life."

"Don't talk nonsense. How much my mother loves you can't be expressed in words. If it weren't for that unintentional mistake that year that caused you to wander outside, how could you have experienced so many twists and turns..."

Leng Shiyun's thoughts surged like a tide, every drop of which was a deep regret for the past. The eyes of both mother and daughter instantly turned red, and they could no longer suppress their emotions. They hugged each other tightly, tears intertwined, as if to wash away all the missed time.

Nan Rongyi had a solemn look on her face. Although she was heartbroken, she had never thought of giving up her daughter.

"It doesn't matter. You are our Fei'er. It doesn't matter if you don't get married. Your parents will protect you for the rest of your life."

Her biological parents were not indifferent. Instead, they kept blaming themselves for not taking good care of her and not discovering all this earlier.

"Now, the bandit camp has been razed to the ground, and the bandits have been beheaded. They are gone, but the nightmare remains. When I think of those things in the past, I often feel palpitations..."

Now that she had spoken out, she finally felt relieved and no longer had to hide it.

That night, Leng Shiyun stayed with her and held her daughter in her arms like she did when she was a child. However, she couldn't help crying softly, and her tears soaked Hu Lianxue's inner clothes.

"Mom, don't be sad, it's all over." Lianxue's voice was gentle, trying to soothe the sadness in her mother's heart.

Leng Shiyun's eyes inadvertently fell on the faint scar on her daughter's delicate arm, and her heart ached again.

“Is this scar also left at that time?

"I escaped a few times and was caught and brought back."

Leng Shiyun gently lifted her sleeves, revealing shocking scars underneath, like marks left by time, silently telling of past hardships, making her heart tighten and the pain indescribable.

"Lianxue, mother will love you forever."

"Mom, please stop crying. You're making me want to cry too."

Leng Shiyun wiped the tears from her face and said, "Mom, don't cry anymore, don't cry anymore, I won't cry anymore in the future. Your suffering is over, and everything will be smooth sailing in the future. Mom will help you postpone the marriage tomorrow, and you will stay with your parents."

Hu Lianxue shook her head and said, "I will explain this to Master Fu."

Leng Shiyun was afraid that if the other party knew about this, they would humiliate her daughter. She couldn't bear to see her daughter fall into pain again.

"Mother wants to protect you. The Fu family is also a wealthy family. If they find out, mother is afraid that you..."

"I have already thought about it. If Lord Fu dislikes me, I will take the initiative to cancel the engagement. Although my daughter is weak, she knows when to advance and when to retreat, and is sensible." She said it calmly, but in fact she was very nervous.

But this time, she wanted to be frank and give both sides a chance.

Leng Shiyun hesitated for a while, and finally nodded.

If her daughters couldn't fit here, they could go somewhere else, somewhere without gossip.

That night, the mother and daughter snuggled together.

The next day, Hu Lianxue dressed up a little. She was naturally beautiful, and with a little makeup, she was already stunningly stunning.

Fu Rongxuan had originally agreed to keep the appointment, but suddenly had official business and did not show up.

Hu Lianxue felt lost. She had clearly mustered up her courage, but she didn't know if she would have it again next time.

After that, Fu Rongxuan didn't come to visit her for several days, and she couldn't find where he was.

I had a vague feeling that he might know the truth.

Fu Rongxuan should be avoiding all this, or maybe she should give up.

Hu Lianxue was ready to cancel the engagement. Her mother was right. Rather than bringing shame upon herself, it would be better to sever all ties with her.
