Chapter 112 Between life and death
Liu Anyang stared at the jade pendant in his hand motionless, as if time was still. Chen Wanxin had been used to waiting since she was with Yan Jinfei in her previous life. She did not show any impatient expression and just looked at Liu Anyang quietly.
After a long time, Wan Xin wondered if Liu Anyang was already asleep. Liu Anyang showed a shocking smile to Wan Xin. This smile was beautiful, but there was a hint of tragic. She stretched out her hand, grabbed Wan Xin's right hand, opened her palm, and put the jade pendant in her hand into Wan Xin's palm.
Wan Xin looked at the jade pendant in shock and looked at Liu Anyang incredibly.
"Wanxin, you will keep this jade pendant from now on."
"How can this... be it? Sister Liu, I know how important this jade pendant is to you. Did you ask me to hand it over to Manager Meng?" Chen Wanxin did not expect that Liu Anyang would hand such an important object to a irrelevant person.
"Don't let him give it to him." Liu Anyang looked at Wan Xin's hand, turned his gaze firmly, and looked out the window, "His place is not very safe now. I think I will be discovered in a short time. If this thing is placed here, it will sooner or later fall into the hands of the evil people. Neither I nor my parents want to see this situation. I try my best to protect the jade pendant, but I don't want it to fall into the hands of the person who has evil thoughts in my heart. And you are the only person I trust."
"Sister Liu, you, this is your token, and I..." Chen Wanxin encountered a silly voice for the first time since she was reborn. She didn't know what to say. The weight of this jade pendant was too heavy and the responsibility was so heavy. And she hasn't even handled her own affairs, how can she carry such a deep and long-distance thing?
"I believe you can do it. If I am lucky enough to get nothing wrong this time, what if you give me the jade jue back?" Liu Anyang deliberately made a relaxed expression. Wan Xin knew that this was just her pretending. If he could escape so easily, Liu Anyang would not let Yu Jue stay away from her side.
"Sister Liu, this jade pendant, I..." Chen Wanxin still felt that it was inappropriate to put such an important object here.
A sad expression appeared in Liu Anyang's eyes, "Wanxin, are you afraid that Yujue will cause you trouble?"
Wan Xin denied, "How could it be? I just feel that I am not qualified to have a jade pendant."
"I am the former master of Yu Jue. Now I believe that you have the ability and qualifications to become the new master of Yu Jue. If I say you have it, you have it." Liu Anyang's eyes showed no reservations about his complete trust in Wan Xin.
"Then, what should I do next?" Wan Xin also had only a slight understanding of the matter of Yu Jue.
"My mother once told me that Jade Jue has its own strength. As long as someone who is pure and has no distracting thoughts, Jade Jue will lead you."
Pure and good nature? No distracting thoughts? Both of these two descriptions of Chen Wanxin feel that they have nothing to do with her. If she could barely be considered qualified in her previous life, but now she is sometimes frightened by her own determination and ruthlessness.
Wan Xin talked to Liu Anyang again about some details about the jade pendant. The sun slowly sets. Chen Wanxin looked at it late and stood up to say goodbye, "Sister Liu, I'll go back first. If there is no accident, I will leave here tomorrow. After the matter is over, you will go back to Beijing with Manager Meng and you will definitely come to find me."
Liu Anyang sent Wan Xin out of the door and nodded, "If I return to Beijing safely, I will go to find you if you don't say it."
Liu Anyang looked at Wan Xin's back as she felt a little sorry for this girl. She pulled Wan Xin into one complex event. But now that things have come to this, whether it is for herself, for her parents, for her parents' wishes, and for the people of the world, she has no choice but to do it...
"Young Master, Chen Wanxin returned to the countryside and did go to deliver items to Liu Anyang, and now he has returned to the yard." Lu Yue reported to the young man sitting at the table in detail what he had watched today.
"You mean, she is really just going to deliver goods?" Liu Fanchen, who had a cold face, raised his eyes and stared at Lu Yue. His eyes were shining brightly by candlelight, but there was no trace of warmth.
"Yes, she is holding the embroidery..." Lu Yue answered firmly. He watched Chen Wanxin take the embroidery to Liu Anyang's residence. When he came out, he was empty-handed and naturally went to deliver the goods. Why did the young master still have questions?
Liu Fanchen chuckled, "Then do you think I should thank Chen Wanxin or kill her?"
Lu Yue was stunned, why was his young master so clueless? "Young master, you just said you wanted to kill Chen Wanxin?"
Liu Fanchen picked up the jade pendant on his waist with one hand. The word Liu was engraved on it. This was the only relic left to him by his mother. "Yes, she completely destroyed our plan. I even regretted why didn't I get rid of her long ago?"
Lu Yue was speechless. He knew why his young master had become a murderer now. He instantly shrank his neck, for fear that the young master would be very angry and would cut himself off.
"This important person seems to be the fifth concubine." Liu Fanchen asked. The pattern of jade pendant appeared beside Chen Wanxin. She must have seen it somewhere. The people sent by Liu Fanchen have not found any useful information in the countryside. He had to do it and see if he knew anything. Unexpectedly, this Landlord Liu looked fierce on the surface, but was actually a bag of wine. After a few tortures, he was already dying and was dying to take everything, and even the matter of his own bed was said in detail.
"Young Master, according to what Landlord Liu said, the fifth concubine was bought by him from human traffickers..." Lu Yue refined the information of Landlord Liu and told the young master that if the young master wanted to let the young master know what Landlord Liu said every day, I'm afraid Landlord Liu would have come downstairs to see the King of Hell long ago.
"Human trafficker, that means the identity of the fifth concubine is unknown." Liu Fanchen instantly extracted useful information, "Then the person we are looking for is likely to be her."
"Then, young master, let's tie her up now?" Lu Yue asked tentatively.
Liu Fanchen picked up the fan beside him and knocked Lu Yue hard on the head, "After so many years, why are you still so stupid? If the fifth concubine is really the one we are looking for, since she can compromise here and endure humiliation and live a life of silence, it proves that she is not an ordinary person. Are you tying her now to force her to death?"
"Then what should we do?" Lu Yue was completely confused by the young master.
"Let's go home..." Liu Fanchen thought for a while, got up and walked out.
Lu Yue looked at the completely dark weather outside, sighed, and walked out of the room with the young master, "Young master, it's too late now, what are we going back now?"
"kill."
"What? Who is killed? Chen Wanxin? The young master cannot do it. After all, she is the legitimate lady of the Shen family." Lu Yue hurriedly stopped Liu Fanchen. The eldest lady of the Shen family's Shuiyun died bizarrely. The government must investigate carefully. Now they are better at least doing more than doing more. There is really no need to get rid of Chen Wanxin.
Liu Fanchen gave Lu Yue a faint look, "Lord Liu's life is meaningless. Now this fish has emerged. Now it's our turn to give the fish a little, and it's up to her to see if she can show up..."
Since the target has been fixed on the fifth concubine, if Landlord Liu is to be released, he will definitely have to escape with his family after he comes back. How can the little fish he finally found be put into the sea?
"Then... Chen Wanxin is still..."
"Since Chen Wanxin helped us find the fish pond, I will also reciprocate and let her live for a while." No one in the capital had ever seen Liu Fanchen's ruthless side, but now he is his true character. Only when it gets dark can Liu Fanchen show his other side, perhaps because of the night as a protective umbrella, and he has always been a gentle and elegant young man.
Lu Yue looked at his young master and thought to himself that if the girls in the capital who care about the young master knew the young master's true character, they would not know how many people would cry, how many people would scare away, and how many hearts would be broken.
"Ah snee..." Chen Wanxin sneezes hard in his room.
Why did the room suddenly feel a little cold? Chen Wanxin looked around strangely and found that there was nothing unusual, so she continued to lower her head and embroider the purse. The purse was used to hold the jade pendant. She thought about it and felt that it was not safe to put the jade pendant on her body. It would be better to find a hidden place to hide it. She thought about it and felt that it was safer in the Chen Mansion. But now she would have to wait a while before she returned to the mansion, so she had to carry the jade pendant with her.
Wan Xin looked at the jade pendant that was only half the size of her palm, and was crystal clear. She didn't expect that her trajectory would change direction because of such a small thing. The things that countless people outside were looking for could not be expected to lie in her palm.
The next day, Wan Xin did not get up early and was about to set off until noon. She did not go to meet Liu Anyang again. She knew that it would be dangerous to meet once more.
Xia Tian strangely discovered that the carriage was not heading towards the capital, "Miss, where are we going?"
"Now, Taiqingzhuang is suffering from frequent floods near the capital, and many victims have fled. Let's go and see..." Wan Xin explained to Xia Tian. She couldn't say that she was looking for her sister-in-law. If she said this, it would seem too strange. She had never been to Taiqingzhuang in her past or in this life, and she had no chance of knowing anyone there.
Xia Tian was also very puzzled, "Miss, what are we going to Taiqingzhuang for? Are we going to provide disaster relief?"
"Why not? My brother has not returned home for several days because of flooding. Let's see what the current situation is. If you are in the best position, you might as well help." Wan Xin has prepared some silver coins for disaster relief this time. Although the number is not large, it is enough to be convincing. She is really going to rescue the disaster.
After hearing this, Xia Tian admired the lady's heart even more. If there was a good reputation after the disaster relief, it would be possible to help the eldest young master's official career, and his own lady's reputation would be higher, so he would definitely marry a good family in the future. It would definitely be several times better than that rigorous. Xia Tian had already had a good heart. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that the lady was too smart.
Wan Xin didn't know what Xia Tian was thinking. She was a little excited and thought that she would soon meet her sister-in-law, and helped him with his brother's original marriage.
The distance to Taiqingzhuang was not very close. At noon the next day, they found that more and more victims were fleeing on the road. Chen Wanxin knew that she was getting closer and closer to Taiqingzhuang. She racked her brains to think about her sister-in-law's background, but no matter how she thought about it, she had no idea. She was very upset that she didn't care enough about her sister-in-law in her previous life. At that time, she only had the Yan family escort agency in her heart, and Yan Jinfei, so how could she let go of others?
She only knew that the eldest sister-in-law's surname was Xue and her boudoir name was Lan Feng. All the relatives in the family were gone due to flooding, and she was the only one left. When the eldest brother met her, the eldest sister-in-law was already dying and had no strength to leave her hometown with the villagers. She was ready to meet her relatives. Thinking of this, Wan Xin thought of a place where she might find her eldest sister-in-law.
She was not staring at the refugees outside. If the sister-in-law had been seriously ill at that time, she would not be able to leave her hometown with everyone. Chen Wanxin ordered the coachman to go to the largest clinic in Taiqingzhuang. She felt that the sister-in-law was there.
The carriage slowly stopped at the entrance of the clinic. Chen Wanxin got off the carriage and was jumped by the scene in front of him. The clinic could no longer carry the local patients, and the entrance of the clinic was filled with sick victims. Some of them could not even sit up and lay on the ground dyingly, waiting for the arrival of death. When the victims saw Chen Wanxin's bright clothes, their eyelids did not lift up. They were no longer interested in anything outside. Most of the people here have not eaten for three days.
At this time, a young doctor came out of the clinic. Seeing Chen Wanxin standing at the door, he was stunned, "Miss, how dare you ask if you are? Do you see a doctor or find someone?"
Chen Wanxin looked at the young man in front of him, and the man looked tired. Wuqing's eyes revealed the current situation that he had not closed his eyes for several nights, "Brother, are you a doctor here?"
The young man nodded, "I am the doctor from Taiqingzhuang. I can call me Doctor Qin. Now we are flooded here and there are disasters everywhere. It seems that the girl is not a local. It is dangerous to come here. Girls should go back quickly."
Dr. Qin looked at Chen Wanxin and saw that he was a lady from a big family. I wonder if he came here by playing here. Now this place is not their lady in the capital, and he is here to visit.
"Why are you talking to my lady?" Xia Tian was also very rude to Dr. Qin and immediately responded.
"Xia Tian." Wan Xin scolded Xia Tian gently and saluted Doctor Qin, "Doctor Qin, you may have misunderstood. I didn't come here to play. I heard that Taiqingzhuang has a very serious flood, so I wanted to come and see what the situation is like now. I dare to ask the doctor, why do these people let them stay outside the door?"
