Chapter 1 Tragic death and ruined temple
Suburban Beijing, the backyard of Longyue Nunnery.
The howling cold wind blew through the cracks in the window, chilling people's bones.
Su Leyun, dressed in gray plain clothes, knelt on the futon, twirling Buddhist beads in his hand and reciting scriptures silently.
She was expelled from her husband's family and spent half a year in Longyue Temple introspection. The hysteria when I first came here is gone, and I feel calm now.
All things are determined by fate, and you cannot blame others.
Only for her mother, brother, and grandfather, she felt guilty.
She was already married when her mother was seriously ill. She was trapped in the small space of the Li family. She was unable to serve the soup at the bedside, and she did not even see her mother for the last time.
My grandfather was framed and dragged his old body to the battlefield. He died on the battlefield together with his brother. His body has not yet been recovered...
In this world, all the people who truly loved her are gone.
The door opened with a creak from the outside.
A proud female voice sounded along with the sound of soft footsteps.
"The dignified daughter-in-law of the Marquis was reduced to the countryside, and I was forced to occupy this beautiful family background for fourteen years. Now she is in such a situation, being controlled by others. It's really ridiculous..."
Su Leyun paused slightly with the Buddhist beads on his fingertips.
Su Waner raised her hand and asked the guards to bring the person up.
“Let me go! Let me go!”
Two girls, also dressed in gray plain clothes, struggled, and the guards grabbed their arms and forced them into the door.
“Lotus heart! Green willow.”
Su Leyun's eyes were shocked: "If you have any big reason, come to me, so there is no need to embarrass these two girls."
Su Wan'er pinched her chin and looked bitterly at this face that was bright and moving even without makeup. A sinister smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he ordered the guards in a cold voice.
"kill!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the long sword pierced his chest, and the blood fell to the ground along the gray coarse cloth. In a moment, it gathered in a small pool, and the green willow lost its life before his eyes.
Su Leyun's hands were powerless, so the guards cut her hands behind her back and pressed them together with Lian Xin.
Su Leyun's eyes were full of sadness, but also had a bit of determination that would destroy both the jade and the stone.
"Su Wan'er, although I was expelled to Longyue Nunnery by the Li family, Li Rui did not divorce his wife. I am still the wife of a Hanlin bachelor. I will make you pay for what you have done today."
Su Waner laughed loudly with contemptuous eyes.
“Mrs. Bachelor? Do you think the Li family will stand up for you?”
"Do you know why Brother Rui suddenly agreed to marry you? Because I complained to him that you were bullying me at home every day because of your status as my legitimate daughter. He married you into the Li Mansion just to make my life easy."
Su Leyun was stunned, so that's it. No wonder he has never been willing to touch her since they got married, and even found unfounded charges to expel her from the Li Mansion.
Looking at Su Leyun's shocked look, Su Waner's smile became even brighter. She took out a dagger from her sleeve and slowly pierced the lotus heart.
"Well…"
Lian Xin gritted her teeth and refused to cry out in pain.
Su Leyun was stunned, but he was held tightly by the guards.
“Good sister, don't worry, I'll be with you soon.”
Su Wan'er pulled out the dagger, and the cold blade fell on Su Leyun's face, sliding thinly, and blood streaks slid down the fair skin. Su Leyun seemed to feel no pain, and just stared at Su Wan'er.
"You are the last member of the Sun family. Only if you die can we feel at ease."
Su Leyun forced himself to calm down, his thoughts turning quickly.
Grandfather Sun Shao was a dignified general who protected the country, he was upright, honest and courageous, so how could he be framed for no reason?
My elder brother is a straightforward man and is well versed in the art of war. At the age of thirteen, he went to the frontier with his grandfather to practice. He has rich experience. How could he be greedy for merit and rush forward, leading to the annihilation of the entire army?
Now that I think about it, the death of my grandfather and brother is full of weirdness...
“Is your grandfather's death related to you?”
Su Leyun asked Su Waner with cold eyes.
"I'm not that capable. It's just that he was on the wrong team and took care of things he shouldn't have."
Su Waner smiled sinisterly and spoke proudly.
"Oh, considering that you are about to die, I can't help but say a few more words. Although Sun Shao's matter has nothing to do with me, your mother's death was my own fault."
“I feel sorry for her lingering on the sick bed, waiting to see you for the last time.”
"Su Wan'er, she is also your mother after all, how could you do it!"
Su Leyun's eyes were so wide open that his face was covered with bloodstains. He looked very horrifying.
“Who told you that she only has eyes for you? You can't blame me for this. If you want to blame me, I blame you for not coming back. You should have died in Lijia Village!”
Su Wan'er gritted her teeth and stabbed the dagger into Su Leyun's chest with her backhand.
Severe pain bloomed, and Su Leyun was thrown to the ground like a rag by the guard. With strong hatred in his eyes, he looked in the direction Su Wan'er left.
She hates it! She hates it!
With blood loss and his body getting colder, Su Leyun became drowsy. When he was dying, his eyes fell on the Buddha statue on the case.
Jingzhou City, inn, room No. 1, Tianzi.
“Cold, so cold.”
The candlelight was flickering, and the bath water with rose petals floating in it had cooled down. A girl with a gloomy face and a thin body was leaning naked against the wall of the barrel, her eyes closed tightly, and she hugged her shoulders shiveringly.
Su Leyun shivered in a daze, and two female voices, deliberately lowered, could be heard vaguely in his ears.
“The legitimate daughter is back, what will the family do?”
"Didn't the old lady say that everything will remain as usual, except that there is an extra second lady in the family."
"Obviously she is her biological legitimate daughter, but now she has to be the second young lady after her adopted daughter. The old lady is really partial."
“Why is the old lady so partial? Look at this person inside. In terms of conversation and grooming, she can't even compare to us high-ranking maids, let alone Miss Wan'er!”
The long eyelashes like butterfly wings fluttered and slowly opened, and the eyes changed from confusion to clarity.
Looking around at the simple furnishings of the inn, Su Leyun raised a sneer on his lips.
God was merciful and gave her a chance to start over!
