When Cheng Yang arrived, the side door of the general's mansion had been broken.
After a fight, the guards of the house were restrained by the intruders. The leading woman, dressed in neat clothes, stood with her hands behind her back, admiring the plantains on the wall.
Hearing the footsteps, she turned her head and said, "Sanlang."
Xie Xian didn't apply makeup, and her eyebrows had a cold beauty.
But this didn't catch Cheng Yang's eyes. He frowned and asked, "What are you doing here?"
Xie Xian's eyes turned to him, "I heard that you were poisoned, so I came back to save you. You refused to see me, so I had no other choice but to force my way in."
She looked into Cheng Yang's eyes, "You want revenge, but you can't die. I can save you."
Cheng Yang looked cold.
Mahabodhi Temple is famous for its efficacious works, and Master Fazang is even more of a generation of eminent monks.
Seventeen years ago, Master Fazang came to the palace and said that he was inspired by destiny and that auspiciousness would come to the world. If he got this auspicious body, he could ensure the prosperity of the country for hundreds of years.
There were hundreds of children born in Suidu that year, and the master couldn't tell who they were.
Xie Xian, who was the first to turn one year old, entered the palace with her parents, causing colorful carps to jump up in the pond, and it became a good story for a while.
Everyone knows that Xie Xian is an auspicious person.
Later, Xie Xian entered the military camp and led the troops as a woman, which was probably due to this status.
Now Xie Xian has taken it for granted that she is the only one who can save Cheng Yang.
"It's just that," Xie Xian changed her tone, "If you want me to save you, you must agree to my conditions."
She took a step forward: "You must divorce Qing Lingyi and marry me."
Cheng Yang had a cold face and a sarcastic tone: "Have you shut down your mind? Think about it for yourself, is this possible?"
Xie Xian was also a little unhappy: "Why is it impossible? Compared to her, I am more suitable for you! I am already General Yunhui! Your Majesty promoted me and transferred me back to Suidu. Soon I will be able to serve as the right guard. ,with you!"
Cheng Yang raised his eyebrows.
"And my father, he will succeed Shangshu Ling. Wouldn't this be a better help for your great cause of revenge?"
Cheng Yang sneered, "How can Xie Jianzhi still be an official with that old bone?"
"Tsk!"
Xie Xian suddenly moved, with lightning speed, she pulled out the dagger from her waist and took the head out of Cheng Yang's heart.
Cheng Yang reacted very quickly, avoiding the attack and at the same time grabbed her wrist and snatched the dagger away, then put it against her throat.
Other soldiers behind him also appeared, bringing Xie Xian with them to counterattack.
Xie Xian stared at him seductively, "Sanlang, you haven't replied to my letters since you got married. Is it because your new wife is too strict with you, or are you satisfied with her enough?"
Cheng Yang looked disgusted, "Don't disgust me."
"Is it disgusting?" Xie Xian murmured, "I'm curious, if Qing Lingyi learns about the past between you and me, who will be more disgusting?"

Yanshanju.
Qing Lingyi sat down in front of the dressing table, took a quick look and saw a black rectangular wooden box on the table. She had never seen it before.
"What is this?" Qing Lingyi asked.
Bi Wei also looked over.
"This is prepared by General Cheng."
It was the maid on the side who spoke first and replied with a smile, "The general said this is a surprise for Madam."
Qing Lingyi looked at her and said, "You are very unfamiliar."
"I just entered the General's Mansion recently," the maid said with a smile, "Won't Madam open the box and take a look?"
Qing Lingyi said nothing.
Bi Wei said lukewarmly: "Madam, it's not your turn to give orders yet. I don't need you to serve me here, go out."
The maid responded.
After she went out, Bi Wei frowned and said, "The house has not hired any new people at all recently."
Qing Lingyi nodded, "I also feel something is wrong. Go tell Rong He and arrest him."
"yes."
After Biwei left, Qing Lingyi stared at the wooden box for a long time.
First, I leaned over and sniffed the smell. Apart from the light fragrance of wood and paper, there was nothing else.
He carefully opened the lid of the wooden box just a crack, but there was nothing unusual.
She finally felt relieved and opened the box completely.
There are many letters inside, some new and some old, all well preserved.
What is a letter?
Qing Lingyi took out a letter and opened it.
He took out the second letter and opened it to read it.
Then the third seal, the west seal...
By the end, with a calm expression on her face, she put all the letters back into the box.
Looking at herself in the Linghua Mirror, she saw the kiss marks left by Cheng Yang on her neck and frowned.

the other side.
Cheng Yang pressed the dagger in his hand closer and pierced Xie Xian's skin, "You dare!"
Xie Xian smiled instead: "You have the courage to act, Sanlang. You have lied to me for so long, and you have lied to me so much. Isn't this the consequence you should bear?"
Cheng Yang narrowed his eyes dangerously, "Don't think I dare not kill you."
"I know you dare, but you can't," Xie Xian calmly pressed her finger on the blade, "His Majesty has begun to doubt you. He speculates that all the chaos in Suidu is related to you. He summoned my father back to Sui All, just to deal with your revenge."
Cheng Yang's expression was a little complicated.
Xie Xian moved closer to him, "So, Sanlang, you need me. I am the only one in the world who can help you. You should continue to lie to me, divorce your wife and marry another as I said."
Cheng Yang pushed her away.
Xie Xian raised her lips and smiled, "I'll give you three days to think about it."
After saying that, he set off and left.
Halfway through, she turned around and said, "Oh, by the way, I almost forgot to mention it. I also prepared a gift for Qing Lingyi, she should have received it."
Cheng Yang looked grim and strode back.
When she returned to the main room, Qing Lingyi had just finished dressing up.
She turned her head and looked out the door, "Husband?"
Cheng Yang stepped inside, fixed his gaze on her face, and observed her expression nervously, "Hmm, are you okay?"
Qing Lingyi was surprised, "What will happen to me?"
Cheng Yang carefully checked her whole body and made sure that she was fine. Then he relaxed and took Qing Lingyi into his arms.
"Is it because of that?" Qing Lingyi said softly.
"Um?"
"There was an unfamiliar maid in the yard. I asked Rong He to arrest her," Qing Lingyi said.
Cheng Yang breathed a sigh of relief, "I already knew that hmm is the smartest."
"besides."
Qing Lingyi raised her face and looked at him, "I'm going to find Yun Ling later."
Cheng Yang was not at ease, "I'll go with you."
Qing Lingyi snorted softly, "Didn't you say that you want to make fish soup for me? If you have such free time, can't you go to Tianxing Tower to learn the skills from shopkeeper Xi?"
Cheng Yang laughed and said, "Yes."
He lowered his head and kissed her forehead, "Then when I learn how to do it, I will pick you up in the evening."
"good."
Cheng Yang spent the whole afternoon learning to make fish soup.
He is indeed talented and has been personally recognized by Shopkeeper Xi.
It was getting dark, Cheng Yang was carrying the freshly made fish soup, and motioned to the driver, "Go to Yu Garden."
The carriage arrived outside the door, but the guard refused to pass through.
Cheng Yang lifted the curtain, revealing his complete face, and reminded him: "I am Cheng Yang, I'm here to pick up my wife."
The guard said in vain: "This is exactly what Miss Qing means. She doesn't want to see you, and she won't go back with you again."
