Chapter 14
Qianru rushed out of the house and saw a dead dog in the yard, with blood, intestines, and brains scattered all over the ground, which was very frightening.

Zhixuan huddled under the eaves in horror, and faltered and told her that these were all done by two masked men with fierce eyes.

She thought it must be that King Gui was unwilling to suffer from being dumb and sent someone to take revenge.

Now that Shangguan Yuan is here, they are just throwing dead dogs and blood.

One day he is not here, the consequences are hard to imagine.

She was terrified.

Shangguan Yuan looked calm, and even cooked the bloody dog.

Thinking about that situation, Qianru felt her scalp go numb and even woke up from her dream.

The next day, Shangguan Yuan went to the court early, leaving her and Zhixuan to stay in the empty house tremblingly.

In order to make the little guy feel more at ease, she pretended to be calm and swept the room as if nothing had happened, and accidentally found a rosewood box with a familiar pattern beside Shangguan Yuan's bed.

In her previous life, she also had a box exactly the same, which was specially used to store her favorite works, and she liked to put it beside her pillow.

Seeing that he also had the habit of putting boxes beside his pillow, she was very curious about what was inside.

But the box was locked and couldn't be opened for a while.

Just when she was about to contain her curiosity, a bunch of keys emerged from under the mattress.

She tried it one by one, but she didn't expect it to open.

"My God, it's not."

She was surprised and delighted that the box turned out to be her poems and prose manuscripts from her previous life.

How can this be?

He obviously divorced her in disgust, how could he take her things from Anhou Mansion and put them beside his pillow?What kind of thoughts does he have?Could it be that he later regretted it?

She reckoned it should be so, otherwise how could he want to ask to marry a woman with the same name and surname?
Once happy, the sense of fear is greatly reduced, and it is even more enjoyable to work.

At this time, Zhixuan excitedly ran towards her and dragged her out of a locked room.

Through the crack of the door, you can vaguely see that it is filled with all kinds of weapons.

Zhixuan was so excited that he even encouraged her to break open the door.

It's not good to do this under the fence, right?
While persuading Zhixuan, he couldn't help being curious.

She only knew that he was good at using long spears, but she didn't know that he secretly kept so many weapons.

So, she took out the key chain under his mattress and tried one by one.

Wow!opened again.

There are dozens of kinds of swords, guns and halberds inside, which is dazzling.

There is not much dust accumulated on the weapon, it can be seen that the owner is often wiping it.

Qianru admired everything carefully like a treasure.

Suddenly, Zhixuan accidentally knocked down a shelf, and fell to the ground with him.

She went over to hug him distressedly, and unexpectedly discovered that there was still a space hidden in the curtain covering the wall.

The siblings excitedly went over to unveil the curtain, but unexpectedly they were taken aback!

There are dozens of god's cards enshrined inside, and the wall is engraved with the word "kill" in various sizes, each stroke expressing boundless hatred.

Who is he trying to kill?
She walked to the altar, and found that the tablet in front of the altar belonged to Shangguan Yuan's father, Shangguan Bo, and there were some old scratches on the bottom of the incense burner on the altar.

She removed the incense burner, wiped off the ashes on it, and found that it turned out to be the word "安".

"This?"

She was suddenly horrified, remembering that her father, An Xingdao, had talked about the past before she got married in her previous life.

Twenty years ago, An Xingdao and Shangguan Bo were trapped in Gucheng, waiting for the reinforcements from King Gui, Changsun Ji, but for some reason, Changsun Ji's reinforcements were delayed.

In order to break out of the siege, An Xingdao and Shangguan Bo divided their troops into two groups and forced their way out from the east and west gates.

On the side of Anxing Road, the wind and water flowed smoothly, but Shangguan Bo was completely wiped out.

Mrs. Shangguan asked the first emperor for a thorough investigation many times, but nothing happened.

Because of her resentment, Mrs. Shangguan declined all the posthumous titles granted by the late emperor to Shangguan Bo.

Thinking about it now, in the previous life, the Shangguan family asked her to marry her, and then humiliated her in various ways until she gave up, all of which were out of revenge.

Anhou's mansion suffered from the catastrophe of ransacking the family and exterminating the entire family, and everyone who was involved with it was decapitated. Who would dare to hide the manuscripts of poems and prose in her boudoir?

Unless he is the one who ransacked the house, he would have the opportunity to steal the sheep and take away one or two inconspicuous things without anyone noticing.

Thinking that she had fallen in love with her enemy, An Qianru felt hatred, regret and pain in her heart.

She could no longer live here, and she couldn't pretend to face Shangguan Yuan as if nothing had happened.

But where can we go if we leave here?

Penniless, how to support Xiao Zhixuan?

The entanglement doubled the pain in her heart.

At this moment, Mrs. Shangguan came.

She clearly remembered that she had locked the door and added a stick, but the old lady came in unexpectedly, followed by several familiar nuns.

Looking at each other, she turned her head, pretended to be nervous and dropped the key chain on the ground, then picked it up again.

I wanted to imply to the old lady that she didn't come in by prying the door, but came in openly with a key.

Moreover, with her innocent family background, most of the old lady would not have thought that her keys were stolen.

Sure enough, as she thought, Mrs. Shangguan thought it was given to her by her son.

Seeing that she didn't make a fuss, she led Zhixuan out in an orderly manner.

Unexpectedly, as soon as they stepped out of the door, several nuns blocked them.

Although they looked like a few elderly women on the outside, but they were quite skillful at hand, and they were captured in two strokes.

She gradually remembered that two of the nuns were the old lady's dowry maids, who had been with her for decades and had even been on the battlefield.

When they married into Shangguan's family in the previous life, they often helped the old lady bully her.

Only Aunt Zi Ning, who was not doing anything, was a little kinder, and she clicked every time.

But so what, she is not in charge, and the master is still here.

And Qianru didn't expect that the act of dropping the key and picking it up just now had already provoked the old lady Shangguan.

She had originally brought someone to clean them up, but now that this happened again, the pain came in an instant, but there was no slap in the face.

She gritted her teeth and kept silent, not wanting to be looked down upon by this hateful old woman.

But they just wanted to see her subdued, the more she stopped yelling, the more they beat her, until she vomited blood, and wanted to stomp her again.

Fortunately, at the critical moment, Aunt Zi Ning stopped her, "Miss, after all, she is the son's favorite person. If you continue to fight, I'm afraid it will hurt the harmony of your mother and son."

The old lady thought for a moment, then gave up the idea of ​​continuing to bully her, and coldly threw a few banknotes in front of her.

She dismissed it at first, but when she thought about her future livelihood, she had to hold back the arrogance in her heart and picked it up.

300 taels, although not much, was enough for her to live frugally to raise Zhixuan.

"Miss An, take it and go. Even if my lady nods and tells you to follow the son, with your background, you can't be the wife of the wife. You might as well leave this right and wrong place and find an ordinary family to marry and live the rest of your life in peace. .”

Aunt Zi Ning set up the ladder for her, but if she accepts the 300 taels, can she still be An Qianru?
Just when she was about to throw it away, the old lady's words made her change her mind.

"In the Battle of Gucheng, your father, An Tai, was entrusted by An Xingdao to send a letter of help, but he did not bring the letter with him. As a result, Yuan'er's father and all his cronies died. The enshrined in that house is all because of you The person who died because of his father. He approached you and Antai just to find out the truth of the year, to take down King Gui and avenge his father. If you don’t believe me, you can wait for him to come back and confront him.”

If An Tai really harmed Shangguan Bo, with the temperament of an old lady, can they let their siblings live?
It is clearly lying.

But everything does not come out of nowhere, and there must be some unknown reasons behind it.

No matter what it is, she is a weak girl who has nothing to rely on, is teased and applauded without knowing it, and she has no way to seek revenge from the Shangguan family.

If you still pretend to be arrogant and give up the compensation given by your enemies, you will have to live an extremely difficult life.

Stupid, stupid, and heartless people would choose that.

But 300 taels is really less.

So, she gritted her teeth and paid back the price, "1000 taels."

"Okay, but I want you to write a receipt and sign it."

How difficult is that?

She didn't procrastinate at all, and wrote it as soon as the pen and ink were delivered.

Seeing the paperwork, the old lady readily gave her an extra 200 taels, ordering her to get in the carriage she had prepared and leave the capital immediately.

She ignored it and only took 1000 taels.

With this money, he can buy a house and land, and really take root in the capital. Who would foolishly go elsewhere?
During the days of earning a living independently, she has gained some knowledge, knowing that money is yours if you keep it.

So, as soon as she left the house, she found a deserted alley, hid most of the banknotes in the soles of her and Zhixuan's shoes, and then pitifully led Zhixuan to the spacious street.

"Sister, I will fight hard. Sooner or later, I will get back all the grievances I suffered today."

She didn't want Zhixuan to live with hatred, so she gently pinched his serious face, telling him not to take the old lady's untruthful words to heart.

But the little guy thought more than she thought, "If brother Shangguan came into contact with our family with ulterior motives, then he might be the murderer who killed my father."

"Zhixuan, you can't just listen to everything, you have to see it. What you hear is not what you see. If you really want to tell right from wrong, you must work hard to develop your skills, strive for fame, and let the wicked come to justice."

"How many years will it take? Can't we treat this person in the same way? Sister, you didn't teach this way before. Why do I feel that you have completely changed since you drowned?"

She smiled softly, "Then do you like the current sister or the former sister?"

"Aren't they all sisters?" The little guy hesitated for a moment, then grabbed her hand and snuggled up intimately, "My sister is getting better and better, I like them all."

At this time, a luxuriously decorated carriage stopped beside them,
The small curtain was lifted by a few snow-white slender fingers, revealing Zhao Xian'er's pretty face.

"It's a god-sent fate that I met you, my sister, by accident."
