Chapter 1: ridiculous reunion
Chapter 1 The Ridiculous Reunion
On the Gobi Desert outside Changzhou City, a group of people and horses are walking slowly.
The sky is full of yellow sand and gravel, people who are already fascinated can't see clearly, and Ruan Youqing is blind in his right eye, so walking is naturally difficult. While staggering, she only felt that someone grabbed her.
But she looked cold, without even a thank you.
Just because... after the other party's hand grabbed her wrist, he touched her waist lewdly.
It has been more than two months since she was subjected to such humiliation.
If it weren't for being able to reunite with his parents, Ruan Youqing would definitely try his best to commit suicide. How could the much-loved young lady of the General Protector's family endure such humiliation.
But…
Taking a deep breath, Ruan Youqing looked in the direction of Changzhou City in a trance.
There... there are father, mother, brother and sister.
Although they may be disappointed in themselves...but in the end...the ones who love her the most.
I think back then, because I was disturbed by Li Yi, who was still the crown prince, I almost wanted to break up with my family and marry him.
I thought it was her lover.
But that person's heart...it's so dark that it's frightening!
Used her and her family to the fullest, after successfully ascending the throne, she revealed her true colors, and together with the woman she hated most, Rong Yan, dragged her into the boundless hell!
The grandfather who raised her committed suicide because he was getting old and couldn't stand the torture. I originally wanted to go with my grandfather, but the man suddenly kindly said that he would send her to Changzhou to reunite with her imprisoned family...
Although he was skeptical, Ruan Youqing agreed.
Although she was humiliated along the way, she desperately held back the thought of seeing her family.
Already lost my grandfather, I must not lose anyone else.
Even... even if the Ruan family was charged with treason...
Ruan Youqing stretched out his hand to touch the right eye that was stabbed blind by that woman, and smiled coolly.
In the past, the best friend she thought was her heart-to-heart friend had never been sincere to her, and everything was just to get close to the man she once loved deeply. The two colluded together for some unknown time, and even... conspired to kill her own flesh and blood together!
If she were to start over from the beginning, she would never be disturbed by Li Yi's sweet words again!
She, Ruan Youqing, will never step into the cold-blooded and ruthless royal family again!
Endless resentment and remorse tugged at her heart. When Li Yi ascended the throne, she should have thought of how cruel, despicable and shameless a person who could kill the king... who could kill his own father for the sake of the throne would be!
"Hurry up!" Seeing that Ruan Youqing's pace had slowed down after taking advantage of it, the messenger at the side pushed her vigorously, and scolded her, "Go to Changzhou before dark! You look like a sick child, Don’t you want Grandpa to carry you on your back?”
The other person listened, sneered and took the words: "Aren't you afraid of putting you down?"
「Doesn’t she still have some meat on her chest?」
The words in his ears became more and more unbearable, but Ruan Youqing seemed to be unable to hear them, and continued to walk forward quietly.
A wind passed by her ear, and a strand of broken hair happened to block her eyes.
In the deep-set eye sockets is the ultimate patience.
Hold on...
Seeing Daddy and the others, she can relax.
Even though she might spend time in prison, it's better than being alone.
…
The sky was gradually covered with a layer of yellow, and the group finally arrived at Changzhou City before dark.
Ruan Youqing, who was quite complicated in his heart, hadn't even looked up when he heard Xie Er behind him and took a breath at the same time.
Turning around in doubt, she saw a group of people looking towards the tower with pale faces.
A wave of uneasiness suddenly filled his heart, Ruan Youqing trembled and looked towards the direction of the tower.
Damaged by the wind and the sun, the four heads that began to rot... were hanging high on the city gate tower.
Ruan Youqing opened his eyes wide, his body seemed to be drained instantly and limp on the ground.
This time, there was no one around her to help her.
Those four appalling heads...
It is the father, mother, brother, and sister she is looking forward to...
What a reunion...
Although I had planned for the worst, I was afraid that I would come here after traveling through mountains and rivers, but what I saw were only four corpses...
But this kind of naked humiliation and stinging pain was something she never expected.
The man who had promised her at the beginning, after giving her hope of life, threw her into the abyss of despair!
Someone walked over slowly at the gate of the city, condescendingly looking down at Ruan Youqing who was limp on the ground.
"Mr. Ruan, this is a big gift that the empress personally ordered to give you. Are you satisfied?" With a hint of jokes, she said it from the other party's mouth, and pulled Ruan Youqing out of disbelief.
People walked by the gate of the city. Seeing the situation here, one or two bold people came forward.
"This is... the last lady left in the Ruan family?"
"Bah! Miss! The Ruan family did such a shameless thing! Our Changzhou City almost fell! The death of the Ruan family is not a pity! How can she still have the face to live!"
Like the last straw that broke the camel's back, Ruan Youqing finally couldn't help screaming.
All this looks like a joke! !
Their Ruan family is full of loyalty! Guarding the most barren land in Ningguo without complaint!
The people they protected with their lives were deceived by Li Yi, and the words they spoke were like extremely sharp knives, and the people who cut them couldn't breathe.
The person she fell in love with with all her heart and soul, squeezed out all her value for her own benefit.
In the end, he pretended to give her a... so-called reunion...
The shrill scream made the people present quiet down. Someone tried to accuse him, but seeing Ruan Youqing's current state, he still kept his mouth shut.
"Mr. Ruan, your Ruan family colluded with the enemy and treasoned the country. The emperor kindly allowed your family to reunite. You are still so out of control."
Ruan Youqing's eyes were a little dull after screaming. After a while, she slowly raised her head.
With blood and tears all over her face, she suddenly smiled softly, with a low and hoarse voice:
「Benevolence and kindness? What a kindness and kindness.」
The messenger shook his body, bit the bullet and threw the prepared dagger in front of Ruan Youqing.
「Since... since you have nothing to say...let’s go on the road and reunite with your family!」
Ruan Youqing tilted his head to look at the coldly shining dagger, then reached out and took it in his hand.
"Looking back, you or any of you, if you have a chance, please tell Li Yi and Rong Yan a word for me. When they hug each other to sleep at night, see if our Ruan family is watching them by the window."
Before everyone could react, the corners of Ruan Youqing's mouth curled up slightly, and the dagger he held tightly pierced straight to the heart.
…
Seven days later, Li Yi, Emperor of Ningguo, summoned the world:
"The Ruan family colluded with the enemy and treasoned the country, and brought disaster to the government. I have beheaded all of them for public display. Ruan Youqing, the sinful daughter of the Ruan family, committed suicide seven days ago."
