Received an anonymous letter with two lines written on it:
With rain and mist, the willow branches are deep and shallow.
At the hour of the pig, in Baiyan Village.
" Liu Daiyu " (OS): "How is this possible? Wasn't she burned to death? Could it be..."
Liu Daiyu took out the note from last time and compared the handwriting, which was the same. She couldn't help but wonder if anyone else knew that she wasn't the real Liu Daiyu. Regardless, she had to go and see for herself before she could feel at ease.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, Liu Daiyu's carriage stopped at the entrance of Baiyan Village, but the scene in front of her was shocking. Despite it being daytime, there was not a single person in the village, and the disorder of the surroundings indicated that it had been left unattended for several days. She had a gut feeling that something was wrong and turned to leave, only to find that her accompanying servants had already fainted on the ground. At that moment, she heard footsteps on the stone path behind her. As she turned around, she was struck unconscious by a sudden attack of black mist. Before losing consciousness, Liu Daiyu felt herself being caught by someone, someone very familiar.
Sleeping Beauty: "I told you, once she sees Jiang Suifeng's handwriting, she will come."
Jiang Duming is also feeling resentful at this moment. Looking at his wife in his arms, he can't understand. Clearly, he gave her a noble status, unprecedented favor, although he didn't move his true feelings, they could be considered a harmonious couple. Are all these not as good as Jiang Suifeng's elusive love? Thinking of this, the jealousy towards Jiang Suifeng that is no match for his elder brother emerged again, and his hands unconsciously clenched into fists.
Sleeping Beauty: "Reluctant?"
Jiang Duming (coldly): "I'm just doing it for my child."
When Liu Daiyu woke up, Jiang Duming was sitting upright, looking silently at the open door.
Liu Daiyan (tentatively): " Duming?"
Jiang Duming did not respond to her, remaining silent.
Liu Daiyan: " Duming?"
Jiang Duming (indifferently): "Willow, bring the smoke."
Liu Daiyan (flustered): " Duming, what did you say? Are you confused? I am Willow Rain."
Jiang Duming: "Why did you lie to me?"
Liu Daiyan: "What?"
Jiang Duming: "Is all of this for Jiang Suifeng?"
Liu Daiyan didn't know who Jiang Suifeng was, nor did she know why Jiang Duming would say that he had deceived her. She had not fully recovered from her fainting spell, and was caught off guard by this sudden question, unable to react for a moment. But in Jiang Duming's eyes, her lack of response was taken as confirmation, and in anger, he left without saying a word.
Liu Daiyan Only now did she realize where she was. She couldn't have dreamed that she would be back in this nightmarish prison. Escape! That was her only thought. But as soon as she got out of bed, another nightmare walked in.
Liu Daiyan: "Willow... Liu Daiyu!"
Sleeping Beauty: "Little sister, you have a bad memory. You are the Liu Daiyu, aren't you?"
Liu Daiyan: "You didn't die!"
Sleeping Beauty: "As long as my little sister is still alive, how could I bear to die?"
Liu Daiyan: "What do you want to do?"
Sleeping Beauty: "I should be asking you what you want to do? Why bring smoke?"
Liu Daiyan (hoarsely): "Why? You ask me why? Why is it that we are both daughters of the Li's family, you are the cherished daughter, while I am a caged bird? Why can you go wherever you want, while I am trapped in this cursed place? Why can you marry into a noble family, while I am destined to be trapped and lonely for life? You tell me why?"
Sleeping Beauty: (speechless for a moment)
Liu Daiyan: "What's wrong? Can't speak? If you were me, I'm afraid you would make the same decision as me."
Sleeping Beauty: "I won't harm innocent people."
Liu Daiyan: "Innocent? Everyone has the right to claim innocence, except for you!"
Sleeping Beauty (injured): "Do you hate me this much?"
Liu Daiyan: "Yes! I hate you! From the moment I saw you again, I have hated you with all my heart!"
Sleeping Beauty: "Since you hate me so much, I don't mind giving you more reason to hate me."
Liu Daiyan: "What do you mean?"
Sleeping Beauty: "I'm taking back what's mine."
Liu Daiyan: "No! How dare you! I am the Lady of the City of Ming Water City!"
Sleeping Beauty (mocking): "Lady of the City? Who do you think brought you back here?"
Liu Daiyan: "Ming... Duming... you, you and Jiang Duming... you..."
Sleeping Beauty: " Liu Daiyan, you just stay here quietly."
Liu Daiyan (excited): "No! I am not Liu Daiyan! I am Liu Daiyu! I am Liu Daiyu! I am..."
She once again watched the door slam shut in front of her, as if falling into an inescapable yesterday. She pounded, cried out, but there was no response. She was imprisoned again, becoming the neglected Liu Daiyan once more.
Sleeping Beauty: "Aren't you going in to take a look?"
Jiang Duming: "There's nothing worth seeing. I only need to make sure she doesn't starve to death three times a day, and that she gives birth to the child."
Sleeping Beauty: (meaningfully watching Jiang Duming's back, casting a spell)
Jiang Duming (turning around): "You... you've changed quickly, and your belly looks real too."
Sleeping Beauty (touching her prominent belly): "I will nurture the fetus in Li's family, and my husband will understand what needs to be done."
Jiang Duming (smiling): "Madam's orders, I will naturally follow. It seems the servants outside should be awake by now. Madam, please return to the mansion."
Sleeping Beauty (glancing around the room, emitting a black mist): "I sealed her appearance and voice to prevent any unexpected situations. I'm leaving."
On that day, Jiang Duming used the excuse of the Jiang family taking over Baiyan Village to bring in manpower from Black Cloud Manor to restore the livelihood of Baiyan Village, in order to avoid arousing suspicion. He also arranged for two caretaker women, only saying that it was a pregnant woman with some sins, and they only needed to take care of her daily needs. After handling these matters, he drafted a public notice, stating that the previous explosion and serial murders were all committed by a group of witchcraft practitioners, one of whom colluded with former Li's family maid Muxi to poison Mr. Liu and attempt to seize the Li's family property. Currently, these witchcraft practitioners have been arrested and sentenced to death, their bodies to be hung at the city gate for ten days as a deterrent.
The city gate of Ming Water City hasn't been this lively in a long time. The people are in a fervent mood, watching as several bodies are hung high. Instead of showing sympathy, they are throwing rotten vegetables and stinking eggs. The people are furious at the old master Liu, who not only killed and set fires but also harmed the kind-hearted. He deserves to die! No one cares about the identities of the deceased. Since the lord of the city has said they are bad people, then they must be bad people!
【A corner of the city tower, the sun is high】
Jiang Duming: "No one noticed, right?"
River manager: "Don't worry, Lord, they are all people who died in Baiyan Village before, and now they can be considered to have died deservedly."
Jiang Duming: "They also helped the tyrant."
River manager: (Looks suspiciously, but knows it's not their place to inquire)
Jiang Duming: "Over at Black Cloud Manor..."
River manager: "Pillar has reported that everything is in order to welcome guests, but there's still no news of Sleeping Beauty."
Jiang Duming: "Once she's gone, she's gone, just a woman. These days I will go to Li's family to accompany the lady, you should pay more attention."
River manager: "Yes."
Before, in Jiang Duming's eyes, The romantic history of a wretched sea. was just a tool for making money, a reliance on which he grasped the network of human feelings. But now it's different, the real Liu Daiyu has returned, and it's a bloodthirsty killing machine, just right for restraining the various powers that visit The romantic history of a wretched sea.. Why shouldn't the world be under his control? Just thinking about the scene of being worshipped by the world in the future, Jiang Duming felt extremely pleased.
