Chapter 258 Jiangnan: Concealing the truth and crossing the sea

Can you imagine? I never dared to go out because rocks could fly from the sky, a hole could suddenly break on the road, and even if I sat in a room carved from a whole stone, a thunderbolt could strike from the sky, knocking the house down. Several times, I almost died because of it. It wasn't until I was eighteen that the curse suddenly stopped, as if all the nightmares had passed

I came to Nanzhou and started a life of studying like an ordinary girl. But I was too naive. When I was unprepared, my very close female classmate suddenly went crazy and chased after me with a knife. It was this time that I met your father and Xiao Peng. At this moment, the crazy classmate suddenly woke up, and I felt the power of the curse really disappear. From an unprecedented ease, I realized that Xiao Teng and Xiao Peng could change my fate

She returned to her youthful days. 'I got close to them and learned from Xiao Peng that someone in the Xiao family had been an emperor in ancient times, and they also had a jade seal that passed down the country.'

Speaking of the imperial jade seal, her eyes showed a domineering determination to win, as if she were not a weak woman, but a great general vying for the world.

I think that jade seal can restrain curses, so I saved my senior. It turns out that the Xiao family has a strong aura of Ziwei, which is very bright, indicating that someone in the Xiao family will definitely ascend to the throne in modern times. And the person who is illuminated by the Ziwei Star is Xiao Teng. Every time the Ziwei Emperor Star comes, a disaster star is also born, and this person is Xiao Peng. He is naturally rebellious and can disrupt the natural order when he is with Xiao Teng

Her eyes showed a strong desire, as if a prisoner had seen the dawn of freedom, and she exclaimed excitedly, "In the next three years, we studied together and had emotional entanglements. Our destinies were connected, and we finally completely eliminated the curse power on our bodies

Lin Keqing's hands felt a bit cold, tightly stirring together, afraid of hearing her marry Xiao Teng, just using his words.

Lin Yuying did not disappoint her. Her voice became dreamy and ethereal, like that of a first love girl, with a light pink color on her face, shining brightly: "I am free now, I am in love with Xiao Teng

After saying these words, she completely withdrew from her excited emotions and became the "Mrs. Xiao" that Lin Keqing first met.

Who knew that Master Xiao Er had engaged him to Miss He Xiaodie of the He family in order to balance him? "Her eyes showed excitement and contempt for her failed rival." She loved Xiao Teng, exhausted all her scheming, but still lost to me

She smiled happily on her face and said, "I married your father. Soon after, I had you, and those days were the happiest in my life. But the good times didn't last long, and the heavens couldn't get by with me. After I became pregnant with you, the power of the curse returned. I was worried about something going wrong and closed my door under the guise of raising a child. A few months later, I received a message that someone had kidnapped your father

She took a deep breath and spoke in a slightly deep voice, "This time is different from before. The other party is a cultivator, and at that time, the senior happened to be in seclusion, so I had to go alone

I have mediocre qualifications and only learned some basic Taoist techniques. I was seriously injured by the other party, who was about to take my life. You, who had only been in my womb for seven months, suddenly erupted and attracted a divine thunder, which killed him alive. Then, a heavenly vision came down, and I gave birth to you in the sky full of divine light

Lin Keqing's eyes were as bright as stars, his hands resting on his cheeks, listening with great interest.

She never knew she was born, it was so convoluted. Like Xu Shilin from the Bai Niangzi family, he can protect his mother from the womb.

But after the vision, what awaited us was an even more terrifying curse than before. It didn't seem to have any reservations like before, and could only act in the dark. This time, it disregarded everything and wanted to erase us mother and daughter. I realized that you might be the key to lifting the curse, so it couldn't tolerate your existence. So I summoned Xiao Peng and used hypnosis on him, making him think you were his daughter and taking you away. Your father and I returned to the Xiao family, declared that you were stillborn, and issued a proclamation to the world

Lin Yuying proudly said, "I deduced from the star chart and indeed discovered that your father's daughter and I have died. This is my first victory, and I have also found a way to deal with it

Lin Keqing was as nervous as listening to a story. Although he knew he was ultimately safe, he was still worried and relieved to hear this.

Lin Yuying's expression remained stern, indicating that the matter was not over yet. She continued, "I don't know if it was because of that incident that your father seems to have been cursed and has become very unlucky. His career has suffered setbacks, and those who supported him in the family have also switched sides. It can be said that he is surrounded by enemies and unable to move forward. Therefore, he secretly sent me to Hangzhou

You were taken home by Xiao Peng and often frightened at midnight. The doctors said it was very likely that you wouldn't be able to take care of yourself. I suspected that the curse's power was only weakened, not disappeared. I was worried that it would come to you. So I pretended to marry Xiao Peng under a false name. After I married Xiao Teng, Xiao Peng gave up on himself and had many lovers outside, among whom He Yuan was the most arrogant. On the day of our wedding, she brought her daughter to the wedding

I found out that she was born on the same year, month, and day as me, and her daughter Xiao Wanshu happens to be three months younger than you. If it weren't for your premature birth, her birth date would have been very close to yours. What's even more amazing is that when you were with her, you were suffering from illness as if you had been separated in half. So I used this as an excuse to divorce Xiao Peng, and he soon married He Yuan

After speaking of the past, she sadly picked up Lin Keqing's hand and rubbed it on her face. Tears dripped onto Lin Keqing's hand, with a hint of coldness. Lin Keqing patted her hand, indicating that the matter was already over and she didn't mind.

Lin Yuying said with hatred, "Xiao Peng is an extremely selfish person. She hates me, so she blames you. I know you're not happy in their house, but there's nothing I can do about it. I can only let my seniors guard you and make you less tortured

At this point, the cause and effect were already clear. Lin Keqing once again realized the horror of the curse and admired Lin Yuying for only relying on a strong motherly love heart to keep her safe and strict, and even resist.

What about strictness

Lin Yuying said, "When I was pregnant with strictness, I was worried that he would repeat your fate, so I searched for women in hospitals across the country with birthdates and birthdates similar to mine, and their pregnancy time was also similar to mine. I found four pregnant women who met the conditions. This time, I gave birth at Putuo Temple, and the curse came again. Fortunately, with the protection of the Mountain Protection Formation, I was able to give birth to him with great difficulty. At the same time, my women also gave birth to four children at the same time

Upon hearing this, Lin Keqing felt a chill in his hands and feet. He hesitated and said, "Are the other three children who were brought back to the Xiao family by you and drowned in the lotus pond pushed by Xiao Tong? Are they Zhao Yulong, Cheng Wen, and Liu Xin

She had already vowed to train herself into a heart of stone. She can be ruthless when dealing with enemies, save trouble, and ignore the pain of others. However, in order to save her own child, she will do whatever it takes to use pregnant women and babies. She thinks she cannot do it.

When Lin Yuying talked about these children, her expression was very lonely, but she had no remorse.

She was so shrewd that she could accomplish these great things. Seeing what her daughter was thinking, she said sorrowfully, "I know you won't agree with my actions, but I have no choice. I have to let you live, even if I have to go to hell after death. I have done my best to protect that child and treat him as my own, but like Xiao Peng, Xiao Tong carries a rebellious spirit. When she met that child, it was like encountering a mortal enemy, and suddenly her potential exploded into tragedy

There was a hint of exhaustion and guilt in her eyes, as she thought of the well behaved and pitiful child, but this emotion only lasted for a moment. She continued to tell, "After this child died, I had Xiao Tong keep watch for him in the small black room, becoming a nightmare that Xiao Tong couldn't bear and enduring for the rest of his life." Because she knew that the person Xiao Tong actually wanted to kill was strict, and if it weren't for the Xiao family's disapproval, she would have made Xiao Tong pay for that innocent child's life long ago.

Do not do to others what you do not want done to yourself.

Although Lin Keqing does not agree with her approach, he understands her. Because if it were her, she might have made the same choice. Nowadays, there is no other way except for the deceased child. She will try her best to make up for Zhao Yulong, Cheng Wen, and Liu Xin.

She remembered when she was a child, although she was often bullied by classmates and was known as a disaster star, no matter what accidents happened, it was always her classmates around her who got injured or sick. She grew up safely and unharmed.

There is only one thing, she has a knot in her heart.

Lin Yuying is incredibly resourceful. Not only was she able to change her life, but she also arranged for an old monk to protect her. So how could that happen on her 18th birthday

She asked this question.

Lin Yuying fell silent, and the old monk let out a long sigh, pointing at her and saying, "It's all your fault

Lin Keqing was greatly surprised. Could this matter be related to his own mother

Lin Yuying dared not look directly at her daughter, closed her eyes with guilt, and finally gathered the courage to look at her, saying, "This matter is indeed related to me, but please believe me, the final result was not my intention

Lin Keqing knew her love for her son, so of course she wouldn't think she was intentionally harming herself, but this matter was a nightmare for her two lifetimes and couldn't be understood.

The old monk saw that she dared not speak and took over the conversation, saying, "About sixty years ago, a strange thing happened to a family surnamed Qin in the capital. His young master suddenly fell ill with a serious illness, and many large hospitals could not find the cause. He had no choice but to seek help from the Putuo Temple. I saw that he clearly had the appearance of an emperor, but his purple aura declined greatly. In order to save him, I rushed to the Qin family in the capital and found that everyone in their family had purple aura. According to the Qin family, there must be one person in each generation of their family who suffers from a strange illness. It seems that one person's sacrifice was exchanged for the safety and prosperity of the whole clan

I couldn't lift this curse either. I had to use the dead horse as a live horse doctor, and let them buy a corpse that died of a serious illness. I performed a ritual in the name of that young master and announced it to the world. Later, I brought him back to Mount Putuo as a disciple, and from then on, he became nameless. Unexpectedly, he recovered from his illness without any medicine

Your mother discovered that the aura of Ziwei can restrain curses, so she came up with the idea of the Qin family. After investigation, she found out that the Qin family has a son named Qin Lang, who is handsome, elegant, and upright. He is the most powerful person with Ziwei aura in the Qin family's generation, and she wants to attract him to meet you

Lin Keqing did not expect that there was such a causal relationship behind what she thought was just an accident. Thinking that Qin Lang was once her blind date, she felt a wave of disgust and her face showed it.

The old monk once witnessed Lin Keqing's breakdown with his own eyes and looked at Lin Yuying reproachfully. However, he ultimately felt sorry for her and loved her deeply. He couldn't bear to be harshly criticized and said, "For this, she even used me to coax her disciple back to confront Tie Tou. Tie Tou took the opportunity to pretend to be sick and pointed out that he was going to come to Nanzhou for treatment. My disciple caused a big disaster. The person from the Qin family is Qin Lang. On your birthday, there was supposed to be a perfect encounter, but who knew that something unexpected happened halfway

At this point, Lin Yuying continued, "The Qin family is the most prosperous family in the capital, and many people are watching closely. Therefore, the news of Qin Lang coming to Nanzhou has leaked. At the same time, the He family received the news. It is He Xiaodie, who was engaged to your father by your second grandfather. She is still unmarried, but has an illegitimate daughter named Ye Mei. She wants Ye Mei to seduce Qin Lang and bribed the hotel staff. She drugged Qin Lang in his drink, but he did not fall into the trap and left the hotel
