Chapter 1 The bright moon shines on the ditch 1
In the middle of October in the capital, in the dead of night, the Ningyuan Marquis Mansion was white and quiet. The Rongxuan Courtyard in the middle of the backyard was dark without any lights. This place was the residence of Mrs. Lin who had just died of illness and her granddaughter Li Tian. At this moment
Mrs. Erlin's funeral was laid in the main hall of the front yard. Li Tianshou stayed in front of the funeral without eating or drinking for three days and cried. In the evening, she could no longer hold on and fainted. Two aunts ordered her mother-in-law to carry her into the back garden by the lake.
Rest in Ruiyun Pavilion.
The moon is so beautiful today. Li Tian curled up in the rockery cave in the back garden of Rongxuan Hall. He looked up tiredly at the moon hanging in the sky like a silver plate. The moonlight was cold and the weather was cold. Li Tian tightened the thick linen cloth.
He moved his cloak, changed his posture, turned his head and continued to look at the direction of Ruiyun Pavilion in the back garden.
It was difficult to place her there, so she had to be placed in Ruiyun Pavilion, surrounded by water on three sides and open on all sides. It was further away from the mourning hall than Rongxuan Hall. This Sima Zhao's heart was so naked that the corners of Li Tian's mouth pulled down.
There was a trace of coldness. Grandma said that the two aunts were a pair of idiots. She was absolutely right. These two aunts were chosen by grandma. Li Tian's silent smile was as cold as the moonlight. Grandma is really amazing. Grandma is like this.
Isn't it better to force one's life? After all, grandma didn't get to see her grow up and get married... Li Tian's smile gradually became bitter, and he rested his chin on his knees, feeling another pain and pain in his heart.
Grandma left with her eyes open. She was worried about herself. Li Tian raised his head slightly and looked at the dancing flowers and trees under the moonlight inch by inch. Grandma must be next to him. He couldn't see her. She must be looking at him. Li Tian
Blinking back the tears that welled up in her eyes, she said silently: "Grandma, don't worry, Tian'er will definitely live a good life! Never abuse yourself or take advantage of others!"
A red light suddenly appeared in the back garden, and Li Tian's face suddenly turned pale. He stared straight at the red light in the direction of Ruiyun Pavilion. They... really set a fire!
Li Tian bent down and got out of the rockery cave, running towards Didui Tower as quickly as an elf under the moon.
Grandma was buried, but before she was carried out of Rongxuan Courtyard, her uncle Ningyuan Hou Yan Chengzhi immediately kicked out all the servants in the courtyard and locked the courtyard door with a big lock. Li Tian's lips curled up with a chill, this extremely vicious person
What a fool, she locked it just right! She saved herself the trouble of clearing out the yard. She had no intention of keeping this yard at all. This was her and her grandma's home, and her grandma definitely couldn't tolerate that pair of idiots living in, and she couldn't tolerate it either.
, she had already planned that if grandma left, she would burn down the yard and take her away!
In the shadow under the steps of Didui Tower, Li Tian's confidant Yingluo was looking around anxiously. When she saw Li Tian running over, she hurriedly held up her skirt to greet her. Li Tian asked in a low voice: "Is everything okay?"
"Okay!" Yingluo handed over the fire sickle and velvet she held tightly in her hand and said, "Fifth lady, I'll do it, you..."
"No need." Li Tian refused succinctly. This was her and her grandmother's home, and she must light this fire with her own hands.
Li Tian took the fire sickle from Yingluo's hand and ordered: "Go to the library for a walk and then go to Ruiyun Pavilion." After saying that, he jumped up the steps quickly, squatted down and carefully struck the fire sickle to make fire. Yingluo agreed in a low voice.
With a cry, not daring to delay, I picked up my skirt and ran from the corner door on the side to the library in the northwest corner of the back garden.
Li Tian lit the tinder and shook it gently. When he saw the flames coming up, he raised his hand and threw the tinder into the door of the house. He immediately turned around and jumped down the steps. From the door of Dicui Tower, the floor was covered with oil.
When the tinder fell to the ground, a fire broke out inside the door. Li Tian ran out of the corner door, suddenly stopped, looked back at Rongxuan Courtyard, which was already in flames, with tears on his face, biting his lips that were shaking uncontrollably, and fiercely
He turned his head violently and ran along the secluded path beside the wall, never looking back.
The Ruiyun Pavilion and Didicui Tower were blazing with flames, and the Ningyuan Hou Mansion was in chaos. Li Tian ran all the way into the empty mourning hall, and got under the coffin bed. There was a soft and thick fine cotton mat under the coffin bed. Li Tian took off
He took off his cloak and lay down. He reached out and found the fine cloth quilt from the corner above his head. He pulled it over and kicked it open and closed it. He put his head on the pillow and rubbed it. He turned over, breathed evenly, and listened intently to what was going on outside.
There were loud voices in the distance, but the crackling of lights could be heard in the mourning hall.
Grandma was lying on it, and he was lying on the bottom. Li Tian gently scratched the coffin bed above his head with his fingertips. This was his only relative in this world. Li Tian only felt a heart-wrenching pain, not for himself, but for himself.
I feel pain for my grandma. People have souls. Grandma, you must know now that I am not your Guitiantian. Your Guitiantian left when he fell into the water...
Li Tian pulled the quilt over his face, tears streaming down his face.
Mrs. Lin from the Marquis of Ningyuan, the legitimate daughter of the Prince of Nanning County, grew up in the hands of her parents. When she reached the age of marriage, she chose the talented, handsome and suave Prince Ningyuan, who later became the Marquis of Ningyuan.
Yan Wenzao, who would have known that after ten years of marriage, Mrs. Lin had no results, and on the tenth year, Mrs. Lin burst into tears and took a concubine for her husband. In the month when the concubine became pregnant, Mrs. Lin was pregnant. In ten months, the baby was born.
The concubine gave birth to the eldest son of a concubine of the Marquis of Ningyuan, now Yan Chengzhi, the Marquis of Ningyuan, and Mrs. Lin gave birth to a daughter, Yan Wanfang, Li Tian's mother.
During her confinement, Mrs. Lin had a big quarrel with her husband for some unknown reason. She collapsed that night. Although her life was saved, she could no longer give birth to a child. From then on, according to the words of the nanny Xiong, a loving couple
The husband and wife became enemies, and Yan Wenzao had more and more concubines in his backyard, and concubines and concubines were born one after another. Fortunately, Yan Wenzao's life was short. When he was thirty-eight years old, he fell ill and couldn't afford the funeral. He didn't even have time to establish a son.
, that year, Mrs. Lin was thirty-seven years old, and Yan Wanfang and the eldest son Yan Chengzhi were only eight years old.
After Mrs. Lin forced Yan Chengzhi's biological mother to hang herself with a piece of white silk, her eldest son, Yan Chengzhi, was appointed as the concubine. From that year on, Mrs. Lin was the high-ranking and uncompromising head of the Ningyuan Marquis Mansion.
When Yan Wanfang was nineteen years old, Shili Hongzhuang married Li Zhongxian, the prince of Yongguo. Mrs. Lin almost emptied the entire Ningyuan Marquis Mansion to give her daughter a dowry, but she didn't use any of her own dowry. As soon as Grandma Xiong said
This made him full of admiration: "The old lady is not an ordinary person. It is a matter of course for a woman to leave her dowry to her own child. It is written in black and white in the law. If the old lady leaves this dowry to the madam later, wouldn't the Yan family be the whole family?
Does it belong to the madam? What’s the use of a broken title? A concubine inherits a title without a title, so it’s just a false title. The salary for a month is not even enough for oil and salt..."
Li Tian secretly sighed. Her mother's dowry was even bigger than her grandmother's. She started taking care of her mother and her grandmother three years ago - or rather her own dowry. Her grandmother was very good at taking care of the household affairs. These two dowries
After all these years of living and breathing, when it was handed into my hands, it was already huge and a bit scary.
But does grandma really take the money seriously? How could a person like grandma take the money seriously? Li Tian wiped his tears with his sleeves, turned over, and looked at the space between the curtain of the coffin bed and the ground.
The bright thread, grandpa's love, her daughter, and her granddaughter were probably the things that she really cared about, but each of these things were gone.
Grandma loved grandpa. Li Tian closed his eyes sadly. Grandma often looked through grandpa's poetry book alone. She could see the magic in her eyes as she looked at her. She was almost sixty, and she smiled as if she was seventeen or eighteen years old.
A shy girl who loves him so much that she hates him so much that she wants to kill his heir...
Li Tian subconsciously tightened the quilt. The year after Yan Wanfang got married, she gave birth to her daughter Li Tian. On the day of the full moon, she and her husband Li Zhongxian went to the Puji Temple outside the city to offer incense and fulfill their vows. On the way back, they encountered robbers. They were only a few meters away from the capital.
There were actually robbers twenty or thirty miles away, and they were able to kill the Crown Prince Yong and his wife with dozens of strong servants. No one was left alive, and none of the property was touched. Li Tian raised his hand and gently stroked the coffin bed board.
, she asked her grandma, her face was very gloomy, and she said that she had paid back everything that should be paid, and asked her not to mention it again. Grandma was never willing to say more about the Li family's affairs in the Duke Yong's mansion, and she never asked too much.
, she originally thought that she was just getting married from Duke Yong's mansion on the day of her wedding. Who knew...
Li Tian pressed the coffin bed board sadly. Grandma must have gone. She must know that she is no longer her little Tiantian. Poor little Tiantian, with so much money, how could the two concubines of Ningyuan Houfu be so poor?
Unable to tempt them, they turned to evil. Grandma looked at her so closely that they still found an opportunity to push Xiao Tiantian into the lake. This kind of evil hand has never been broken since then, but first of all, she is not a young and innocent little girl.
Tiantian, secondly, grandma invited Yue Niang for her.
It's good that grandma knows, so that she can leave without worries. Grandma leaves with peace of mind, and she has no worries anymore. Li Tian felt sad for a while. Today is the fourth day after grandma left. In these four days, she has been
