Chapter 162: Fortune and misfortune depend on each other.
As they were talking, there was a knock on the door. It was Dongfang Ruoxue when opened. She was holding cakes in her hands. When she saw An Qingran, she smiled and said, "I thought it was time for you to wake up, so I brought something for you..."
"Ren Dong, come on, please ask Princess Ruoxue to sit down!" An Qingran took the cakes and asked Ren Dong to bring a chair.
Rendong spread the soft brocade cushion on the chair, just let the Dongfang Ruoxue to sit.
Dongfang Ruoxue doesn’t care about this. She sits smiling and looks at An Qingran: “well, you’re alright!”
“Thank you for county master’s concern. I just didn’t expect that the county master would come here, but also saved Rendong. I don’t know how to thank you!” An Qingran said sincerely.
She couldn’t believe what she would do if Rendong was killed.
If you say thank you, it’s my elder brother who saved Rendong! “
“Oh, Dongfang Shizi have a good Kung Fu. I haven’t heard of it before. I think Dongfang Shizi is too low-key!”
An Qingran said with emotion.
She didn’t even have any impression of Dongfang Gongzi who saved people. This is really a sin.
“My brother is really like this, just like the cloud and wild crane*!” Dongfang Ruoxue smiled. It is actually her pride to have such a elder brother.
[the solitary cloud and the wild crane — to have no fixed place of abode]
An Qingran wants to say something more. Dongfang Ruoxue says, “Do you know who attacked you? The two groups fought fiercely, but they didn’t dare to go up. Later, one group took the other with them… “
In fact, one group was killed by the other and the corpses were taken away. But Dongfang Ruoxue didn’t see it.
An Qingran shook her head: “There is no clue, one group of people are the dark guards of Crown Prince, then the masked people don’t know. Maybe when I offend people don’t know it!”
An Qingran laughed angrily at herself.
“If you say that you offend people, it’s those young people who offend. It’s not offensive!” Dongfang Ruoxue sneered.
An Qingran’s heart was moved, obviously she was also a person of justice.
“Thank you, county master. If ordinary people can see it think how many evil things I have done!” An Qingran chuckled.
“In a word, the General is too relieved, but only brings such a small number of servants…” Dongfang Rouxue said with fear, “if you don’t met the Taizi, I don’t know what would’ve happened, I really don’t dare to think about it.”
“Yes, it’s my intention! father had don’t know about. I really envy the county master’s good brother. Dongfang Shizi escorts the county master himself. ” An Qingran said.
Who would have thought that a random pilgrim would meet such a fierce bandit.
“It’s true that you don’t have a elder brother. So don’t know the benefits of elder brother. He is more nervous than my father Wang. By the way, doesn’t your cousin often walk around with the General’s Mansion? Why didn’t he send you? ” Dongfang Ruoxue changed the topic.
“I don’t know which cousin the county master is referring to? ” An Qingran said.
“Naturally, it's Lian Muhan!” Dongfang Ruoxue said, “It's not Kang Wang, right? Where does he have time to spare, besides, you guys are rather cornered cousins!”
An Qingran suddenly heard Dongfang Ruoxue mention that Lian Muhan didn't take it personally, but just smiled and said, “My cousin, but Shenlong(Dragon) sees the head and doesn't see the tail*, but it's not easy to see it!”
[The person is quite mysterious at his whereabouts, appearing at one moment and disappearing the next]
Dongfang Ruoxue nodded: “Yes, Lian Gongzi ...... I saw the crown prince, but thought that Lian Gongzi would also follow him around!”
If Dongfang Ruoxue hadn't explained, An Qingran wouldn't have thought of anything. But her explanation made An Qingran understand something. How could a girl like her casually mention another man's name?
Could it be that she is interested in her mediocre cousin?
Although my cousin seems to be nonchalant, I know him well. He is just the same type as the Crown prince. When the two of them hang out together, neither of them is serious. But when they are serious, this cousin is extremely talented! And they are upright people. Sometimes she just doesn't understand why these two people would hide their extraordinary elegance and would rather let the world throw dirty water on them?
Or is this a strategy?
But she couldn’t understand.
When An Qingran saw Dongfang Ruoxue mention the name of Lian Muhan, she said: “My cousin probably has business to do. He is smiling and grinning on weekdays, but he is not vague at all. He knows the big things and the small things in his heart!"”
An Qingran was very smart. When she heard Dongfang Ruoxue say this, she naturally said something good about her cousin. Dongfang Ruoxue's face turned red when she heard it: "Well... you should eat first. You have slept for so long and it is so late. You must be hungry!"
Seeing the panic on Dongfang Ruoxue's face, An Qingran stopped talking and stopped as soon as she was ready.
It's just that she was faintly worried in her heart. Dongfang Ruoxue is the Princess of Shou Wang, and Lian Mansion is at most a wealthy family. Even if her uncle is a four-rank official Yuanwailang, the gap with Dongfang Ruoxue is really too big. The two households are not comparable, which is really problematic.
In her previous life, Dongfang Ruoxue was sent to marry off as a political marriage* to a small tribe in cold and bitter land. Although she was a royal consort (wangfei), she was only a concubine of a small tribe. The tribe was backward and uneducated, so she died of depression. There is no need to elaborate.
T N note: some feudal dynasties attempt to cement relations with rulers of ethnic groups in the border areas by marrying daughters of the imperial family to them.
She felt sorry for her. An Qingran then realized that a large part of the tragedy in her previous life was due to herself. She did not make friends with good girls like Lou Wanyue and Dongfang Ruoxue in her previous life, but she brought Qin Xiangning to her side. It seemed that she could not distinguish between good and bad and her vision was very problematic.
In this life, after being reborn, she decided to help these good people!
Let those wicked ones not succeed!
Of course, her main concern now was who was that person who was going to rob and kill her?
The Crown Prince said that he had sent secret guards, and Dongfang Ruoxue also said that one group had defeated the other group, so naturally the Crown Prince was victorious, otherwise there would be no peace here, so he must know who those masked men were!
She must find a chance to ask.
She knew all the enemies from her previous life clearly, but she had no idea how many new enemies she had made in this life.
After Dongfang Ruoxue left, An Qingran began to eat her vegetarian meal. She had mixed feelings in her heart. It was not a pleasant feeling to have survived this calamity. She was really not that strong.

The next day, she met Master Kong. The master looked at An Qingran with a kind face and said, "Donor, this tribulation is inevitable. Blessing and misfortune depend on each other. so this tribulation is not really a tribulation!"
An Qingran didn't understand. She was almost killed. Is it a blessing or a misfortune?
She really couldn't imagine how this could be a blessing!
An Qingran filled the blessing box with silver and put dozens of catties of lamp oil on it. She made a wish for her mother in front of the Bodhisattva, as well as the kind people in the entire General's mansion. Finally, she got up and realized that she had forgotten to make a wish for herself. Maybe everything in this life depends on herself to fight for it, and others can't help it.
An Qingran was supposed to return to the mansion the next day, but she and Dongfang Ruoxue became friends soon. The two of them travelled the back mountains together. The mountains already had the meaning of autumn, and the fallen leaves continued to fall one after another, but there was also the aroma of fruit.
An Qingran remembered that when she and the Crown prince encountered the attack time, this mountain just beginning to show signs of spring, and now that it had already reached autumn. The time was passing really fast.
