In 1035 AD, during EastHan Kingdom's Hongde era, Clear Water Prefecture's Mang Shan.

The sun had just set and the sky had gradually darkened. There were no longer any pedestrians on the official road. Soon, a group of people and horses came from afar. Three horses were leading the group, and behind them were three ordinary looking oily carriages. However, from the minute details, the polishing and polishing of the wood, it was clear that every carriage had excellent craftsmanship, and their craftsmanship could be said to be at the pinnacle.

Those who knew how to look at it would know that this was an aura only the rich and powerful families had.

"Second Brother, can you enter Clear Water Prefecture tonight?"

From the first carriage, a small hand that was as white as jade gently opened the bamboo curtain and asked.

"Fifth Sister, don't worry. We are only a few miles away from Clear Water County. We can definitely make it in front of the city gates."

The handsome teenager sitting on a handsome horse in the middle replied.

This young man was around seventeen or eighteen years old. His face was as white as jade, and his eyes were as bright as stars. His black hair swept across his smooth forehead, adding a sense of elegance to this young man. He was wearing a soft silver plum, bamboo, water and cyan colored gown with golden threads at the cuffs. Just this outfit alone was worth quite a bit.

"Yes." The person in the car gently put down the embroidered bamboo curtain.

"Are the five girls tired? Let this servant pinch the young lady. " Yan Luo had long noticed that something was wrong with Li Die.

Although they were both young girls, Li Die was the direct descendant of a proper official family. How could a servant girl like her be as coarse as Li Die? Even the carriage that she had been sitting in for so long was a little too much for her.

"It's fine." Li Die waved her hand.

Yan Luo could only sit back down. Looking at Li Die's fading face, she sighed and said, "Fifth Miss, forgive this servant for talking too much. You haven't had much to eat and drink these days. You can't go on like this."

Li Die closed her beautiful eyes. She did not comment.

Yan Luo continued, "It's not like my uncle's wife is sick. It's only a matter of time before she gets overjoyed. Even if the fifth lady disregards me like this, my uncle's wife will still be alive, so she won't feel at ease."

Li Die raised her eyebrows slightly.

"Don't worry, Yoluo. I understand." It's just that Aunt just passed away, so the pain in my heart is still there. After patting Yan Luo's hand a few times, Li Die forced a wry smile and comforted it.

"Yes."

Yan Luo nodded, and suddenly thought of something, "Oh right, I don't know what happened to the fourth lady. Ever since we returned from the General's Mansion, the fourth lady seemed to have changed. She no longer rode in the same carriage as us. She insisted that the General's Estate send out a carriage for her to sit in alone. This servant has privately asked Jadeite, she doesn't know anything, and only knows that the Fourth Miss hasn't been thinking about food and tea for the past few days. "

"Oh?" Originally, Li Die only thought that Fourth Sister Li Rou had a temper and didn't know how she had offended her. Who would have thought that there would be such a thing?

Yan Luo nodded its head, indicating that it was true.

Li Die murmured, "Sister Four can't even think about food. If it's just because Aunt died, then it's impossible."

Li Die, the daughter of Li Xiangnan, a Scholar of Han Lin Dynasty, ranked fifth. She was from the same family as Li Rou Ping, and the two of them were even rarely seen twins.

For some unknown reason, when Li Die was three years old, her mother sent someone to her uncle's house, which was the residence of General Zhong Wu.

General Zhong Wu had lost his son at an early age and had no children. He treated Li Die like his own daughter, loving her dearly. Especially her aunt. She was even more afraid of falling down while holding her in her hands, afraid of melting in her mouth. It really hurt so much.

At the age of twelve, when his aunt's cough became worse, Li Die was brought back to the Li Residence to live.

Li Die treated her own uncle and aunt as if they were her own parents. Half a month ago, my aunt was unable to endure it and passed away.

The Li family head mother, who was also Li Die's mother and the sister of the General Zhong Wu, Wang Yuyue, dispatched her second son, Li Xiao Yuan, the fourth lady, Li Rou Ping, and the fifth lady, Li Die, all to the General's House to pay their respects.

The pain in Li Die's heart was obvious. Her nine years in the General's Estate had been her happiest days. Although she was not accompanied by her biological parents or siblings, she had an uncle and aunt.

In Li Die's heart, the favor of raising her uncle and aunt was greater than that of giving birth.

As for Second Brother and Fourth Sister, Aunt was only a closer relative. They had seen Aunt many times, and could count it with their fingers. How could they feel heartache and not think about food and tea?

When they were in the General's Estate, Li Die could not see any sadness in Li Rou Ping's heart.

"Maybe it's love at the moment of truth." Li Die stirred her handkerchief and said softly, "Life is short, life and death are up to fate. Sister Four has always been a delicate person, so it's natural for her to feel sad for a few days. "

Yan Luo didn't say anything. She suddenly looked at Li Die and smiled. "But I still like women like the Fifth Miss."

"Why?"

"The five ladies are generous, understanding, and understanding. The most important thing is how beautiful she is. This servant has never seen a woman with a more beautiful appearance than the five ladies. "All the girls in our Scholar's Manor are not as beautiful as the five ladies."

Yan Luo began counting its fingers in an attempt to make Li Die happy.

"Come on, you. You've seen quite a few women in the past ten years, how could I not know?" Li Die cackled at the flesh on Yan Luo's waist. The master and servant duo immediately burst into laughter.

The heavy atmosphere had dissipated a bit.

When she entered the General's Estate at the age of three, her aunt deliberately picked out a son from the family to be with Li Die, to play and grow up with her.

At the age of twelve, Li Die was brought back to the Li Residence. Her aunt gave her the marriage contract with Yan Luo, and together they went to the Li Residence to become Li Die's first-class maidservant.

Li Die and Yan Luo could be said to have a deep master-servant relationship. She was more like a sister than a brother.

The sounds of laughter coming from within the carriage became clearer and clearer to everyone on the official road.

Li Xiao Yuan looked back and smiled as he thought to himself, "Perhaps it is because Fifth Sister grew up in the House of the Great General Zhong Wu. She has a natural sense of freedom and agility when compared to the other noble ladies in the capital."

She was as calm as a virgin, moving like a rabbit. This was probably the description for this kind of woman.

Within the second carriage, a strange atmosphere was being suppressed.

"Fourth Miss, your servant will pour you a cup of water." Jadeite was trembling with fear as it tried to reduce the pressure in the carriage.

Li Rou Ping glared and coldly said, "Scram! Do you also want to be as frivolous as them?"

Walking outside, how could he open the bamboo curtain and laugh wantonly like a brothel girl? It was simply preposterous, how unreasonable was this?

"Yes." Jadeite hurriedly replied. He gently put down the cup and automatically hid himself in a corner of the car.
