The Supreme God Yuanbi and the Twelve Golden Winged Phoenix Girl are the immortals of the God Realm. Ever since the bird tribe and the God Tribe got married, the Phoenix Girl followed her husband to the battlefield as Yuanbi's wife, fighting against demons and monsters.
While she had made great achievements in battle, the Phoenix Girl not only had her appearance destroyed in a sudden attack by demons, but was also exposed to frost, snow, rain and scorching sun for ten days and nights because she was trapped in the Chaos Yin-Yang Formation.
In that battle, Yuanbi fought the Sixth Heaven Demon King, causing the wind and clouds to change color and the mountains and rivers to break. When he sealed the Demon King in the Ruoshui River and rushed to the Bubi Mountain covered by the Chaos Yin-Yang Formation, the Phoenix Girl had already destroyed her immortal spirit and broke the Chaos Yin-Yang Formation, leaving only the last bit of breath.
The Supreme God Yuanbi hung up his seal and became the commander. In the earth-shaking battle between gods and demons, the battle was won and he made great achievements, but he lost his only beloved wife.
No one knew where her two souls and six spirits had gone, and only a trace of her soul had gone to the underworld.
In order to find the last trace of his wife's soul, Yuan Bi jumped into the abyss of the river of oblivion, and spent half of his spiritual power to fish out the trace of his wife's soul, and put it into the soul-gathering pot to let her recuperate.
In order to not know when the Phoenix Girl would wake up, he nourished the Soul-gathering Pot with spiritual power every day, without interruption for a thousand years, just hoping that she would come back one day.
Thousands of years later, although the Phoenix Girl, who had condensed her soul, had a human form, she had lost all her cultivation and no memory of the immortal family.
She was confused and ignorant, and even as the most humble maid sweeping the floor, she could not live in the divine world, so she could only go down to the mortal world. If the fate was not destroyed, she might still have a day of ascension, but if she sank into the turbid world, she could only reincarnate forever.
Yuan Bi could not lose her, and did not want her to forget Him after falling into the human world.
He will never forget her promise before she died: Our fate began in the peach forest. We parted ways in this life, but we will meet again in the next life.
He gave her half of his heart, hoping that she would never forget that his heart was with her, and that the red thread between them would be guided by half of his heart to the day when they would be connected again.
In the yard, light and dark pink and purple flower spikes hang on the vine frame, beautiful like clouds and mist. Colorful butterflies and bees come to smell the fragrance and buzz around. Under the curved bridge under the corridor is a green lotus pond. The dead leaves have not been salvaged, the new leaves have not bloomed, and there are no flower buds. Only two mallards are resting and playing in the water, swimming leisurely.
"Miss, something bad has happened. The wife of the Duke's son has come to cancel the engagement!"
The maid shouted from the moon gate into the yard, startling the green-headed ducks in the lotus pond and Bai Lu, the maid who was busy packing up the pets in the east room. She raised her head slightly and made a hush sign with her finger between her lips, indicating that she should not wake up the girl who seemed to be resting with her eyes closed.
The sixteen-year-old girl leaning on the beauty couch raised her eyes. Her eyebrows and eyes were picturesque, and her pupils were black, like a spring stream. This glance back only added a touch of fireworks. She was wearing a soft and close-fitting purple dress, without makeup, beautiful but not ostentatious, like a stream of water.
The maid with thick eyebrows and big eyes was called Meimiao, with a thick nose and a big mouth. When she saw the girl open her eyes, she immediately said like a bamboo tube pouring beans: "Miss, the fifth wife asks you to go to Shixin Hall." And she emphasized the word "please" in a special tone.
There is no other way. The girl is notorious in the eyes of those people. Usually, the second wife in the mansion makes the decision, so she dare not disturb the girl casually, because if she is not careful, the girl will make trouble in front of her. You know, the girl speaks directly, and even the marquis has to stand aside when she gets angry.
However, judging from the first-class maids in front of her, her girl seems to be too quiet recently, and she feels very wrong.
In fact, she just had a fight with the Princess of Xiangyang on the street, broke her head, and woke up after being in a coma for three days. The whole person is like a fish in a pond. No one can disturb it. She can stay there all the time. She is so quiet. She has not seen the girl who is no longer jumping up and down and getting angry for a long time.
It is said that people may change their temperament when they are stimulated. The stimulation that day was not small. In addition, the mansion has been in trouble recently. It would be strange if her temperament did not change.
"Why is it the Fifth Madam who is entertaining the guests?" Unlike Meirong's plain appearance, Bailu is the most outstanding among the four maids in Sizhenyuan. She has willow-shaped eyebrows, bright eyes, and a graceful figure. If she stands in the crowd, she is definitely no worse than a rich girl. However, she doesn't go out easily. She would rather stay in the yard to look after the house, leaving the opportunity to go out to Meirong.
No wonder Bailu asked, the Fifth Madam has always been the most timid, and she and the Fifth Master are like air in the Marquis' Mansion.
Meirong looked down on her, thinking that Bailu only had a face but no brains. "Have you forgotten that since the decree of demotion came down, the people from the second, third, and fourth rooms have moved out one after another. Aren't our first and fifth rooms the only ones left in the empty mansion? The wife of the prince is a female guest, and the Marquis and the young master are not convenient to entertain guests. The fifth master is also ill, so isn't there only the fifth wife?"
Yes, the Marquis has been widowed for a long time, and has never intended to remarry, but he has many concubines in the backyard, as many as eight at most, but unfortunately he only has one illegitimate son.
Almost all the people in the Marquis's mansion who can leave have left, even the four big maids who served the Marquis's daughter have left, leaving Bai Lu, who has nowhere to go and vowed to follow her even if she has to eat coarse food.
Xiao Xingxing originally wanted Meimao to go with the other two big maids. She signed a living contract and had family in the countryside, but she refused to die, saying that when her family sold her and thought she was too ugly to sell to a brothel for a lot of money, she had no home. It would be better not to go back to such a home, because she would be sold again if she went back, so she stayed.
In addition to these people, there is also the sickly Fifth Master who can't run. He is so stupid that he wants to follow the eldest wife. The Changping Marquis's Mansion, which was originally full of people, is now empty.
The eldest and second wives of the Marquis' Mansion are legitimate, and the rest are illegitimate sons.
Meimei looked at the girl who had no reaction at all and seemed a little sluggish, and she couldn't help but stamp her feet to defend the injustice. "Miss, it's just a son of the Duke's Mansion. It's okay for you to fight for him with the Princess of Xiangyang, but it's not worth it for you to be so desperate-"
Meimei's voice was like a devil's sound filling her ears, and she was angry and jumping, so Xiaoxingxing, who had not paid attention to this, finally came back to her senses.
She is the daughter of Marquis Changping. She first met Luo Yi, the eldest son of the Duke's Mansion, at a flower-viewing party for noble ladies in Beijing. The young girl was in love with Luo Yi at first sight. No one thought that she would go to extremes and design herself to fall into the water with him. Both families were well-known people, and she got the dream marriage as she wished.
Little did she know that Luo Yi already had a lover. When he heard that he was going to marry Xiao Xingxing to show his responsibility, he was not only extremely resistant to this marriage, but also disgusted with Xiao Xingxing. He threatened that he would rather marry a plain girl than a girl from the Xiao family. Whether in public or in private, he would definitely turn his head and leave without giving her any face. This made Xiao Xingxing, who was devoted to Luo Yi, very sad.
When a girl likes someone, in addition to wanting to take out everything about herself, she also wants to know everything about the other person, whether he snores when sleeping, whether he is ugly when picking his teeth, and the best and the worst.
Xiao Xingxing is a spoiled girl. She wants everything she wants, so she spent a lot of money to find out Luo Yi's whereabouts.
Unfortunately, she also found out that Luo Yi had a lover living in Yanzhi Lane. The house was bought by Luo Yi to hide his lover.
Xiao Xingxing decided to meet "her" without saying anything. In terms of appearance, status and family background, she was not inferior to anyone else. Why would that bitch compete with her for a man? So she went to Yanzhi Lane with a proud attitude.
As a result, she was caught in bed with a very shocking scene. This was not enough. What hit her even more was that she, a beautiful girl, was not as good as a young man.
This is too unfair! No, Luo Yi is blind! He actually likes a boy of the same sex.
This was not the end. Xiao Xingxing, who rushed out of the door, bumped into Princess Xiangyang. It turned out that Princess Xiangyang used her cousin Luo Yi as a fig leaf, and secretly met with her beloved man while Luo Yi was dating his lover.
Princess Xiangyang fell in love for the first time, and fell headfirst into love. The man was just a poor scholar, and was not worthy of the princess's family. One day, she met her cousin who had the same troubles at a family banquet.
The men and women who were also troubled by love came up with a perfect plan, which was to let Luo Yi rent a house outside as a place for a private meeting. She could also take the opportunity to say that she wanted to go to her cousin to play. The two of them were aligned and covered each other, and they really succeeded.
But they walked too much on the night road, and Xiao Xingxing, who was crazy about love, came out and ruined the good things of the two.
At first, the two groups of people just talked to each other, and later, no one knew who started the fight first, and they started to tear each other apart.
One is the daughter of the Marquis, the other is the princess of the royal family. Both of them know some martial arts. They fought back and forth, and they were even more angry. They didn't care about the severity of their attacks. At that moment, they just wanted to fight to the death and scratch each other's heads and bleed. They didn't care about much else. In the chaos, Luo Yi, who was biased, pushed Xiao Xingxing.
His move made Xiao Xingxing sad and angry. How could she care about herself? As a result, she was pushed by Xiangyang Princess and hit her head against a tree. Blood flowed and a big hole was broken in her head.
Afterwards, let alone the polite inquiries from the Princess's Mansion, there was not even a word from the Duke's Mansion.
Yes, the victim wanted Xiao Xingxing to die so that they could cut off all ties from then on. How could they think of visiting her?
Besides, the news that the son of the Duke of Jin's mansion had a mistress outside was like a thunderbolt that shocked the entire upper class circle of the capital. The Duke of Jin's mansion was busy covering up the scandal. After all, people wanted to tear apart your bones and drink your blood, so how could they come to visit you?
Meimei was still vigorously criticizing Luo Yi, "He is a man with no eyes. I don't know what the lady likes about him? I thought the lady's vision has always been very high."
In her opinion, the young master Luo, who looks like Pan An and Song Yu, is simply a piece of shit.
Xiaoxingxing's eyes moved a little bit, and she didn't scold Meimei for her rude words, but even teased herself. "Am I blind?"
When these words came out, the two maids pouted, and no one dared to respond.
In fact, when Xiao Xingxing hit her head against a tree, her soul had gone to the Heaven of Separation. Now, she is the only legitimate daughter of the Marquis's family. She is a scourge in the eyes of outsiders and a person who makes people's teeth ache when her family mentions her. But what is the reality?
Who is she? She doesn't know who she is either. She only knows that she becomes someone else as soon as she opens her eyes, but there seems to be a "her" in her bones, and that "her" is the real her.
It's just that it's been so many days, and as long as she touches this part, it's a cloud of fog and blurry. She simply doesn't care. Xiao Xingxing, right? Then Xiao Xingxing. Anyway, she inherited all of Xiao Xingxing's memories and what she knows.
"Since the Fifth Madam asked you to call her, let's go and see." She was a little unmotivated.
Xiao Xingxing stood up like a boneless person, and didn't need the support of the maid. She walked out of the Four Precepts Courtyard leisurely, and Meimiao naturally followed her out.
Bai Lu would not compete with beauty. They would move out of the Marquis' Mansion in two days. Although the girl told her not to pack up, there were good things in the Four Precepts Courtyard, and she was reluctant to part with any of them.
At this time, the Fifth Madam Jiang and the wife of the current Duke's son were not the only ones in the Shixin Hall, but also the Marquis Xiao Xiuluo who stepped into the hall before Xiao Xingxing.
Xiao Xiuluo was a handsome middle-aged uncle with a slender figure, and his eyebrows, nose, and mouth were all very good-looking. The two small mustaches added a mature flavor. Although he was old, he had a calmness that had been tempered by the years. Even at this most miserable moment of the Marquis' Mansion, his face was a little haggard, but he still stood up straight and tried to maintain the last dignity of the Marquis' Mansion.
He knew from the time he was the prince that the glory of the Marquis' Mansion ended with him. When the knife fell, he couldn't explain to anyone that he felt relieved at that time.
He failed to preserve the Marquis' Mansion's property in the capital, but he saved the lives of the entire family.
In addition to notifying Xiao Xingxing, Jiang also invited the Marquis. She really couldn't make the decision on such a big matter, but there was no reason not to let the Marquis know. After all, Xingxing was the apple of the Marquis' eye, and it would be more appropriate for her biological father to deal with any problems.
