Marriage was a woman's second life. In this world where men were revered, a woman was too weak and powerless, and the only thing she hoped for was for her husband to cherish her. However, this marriage had become a bargaining chip for many people's scheme, pushing the innocent girl into a bottomless abyss.

Lin Ruyi was also on the same side as Huo Zhengde. To be able to frame her by the side of the Emperor Tian You and become Baili Zonglv's scapegoat for usurping his position, he could naturally send Yu Tong in front of a young master who was obsessed with Long Yang, using her appearance and family background to ruin her life.

"That Young Master Xu has an extremely good family background and is his only son. In the future, he will definitely inherit his family's property, no matter where you go, he will always be a good match, worthy of the Miss Yu. Even if the old lady sees him, she will definitely praise him."

Huo Mingzhu felt that even though she did understand Lin Ruyi, she just didn't have a thorough understanding of him. Lin Ruyi's methods had always been so brilliant, even when it came to scheming and scheming, she would still kill without a trace. If Yu Tong were to meet the Young Master Xu face to face, then the culprit would be buried several years later, and Yu Tong's remaining life would indeed be brilliant.

Look, after angering Lin Ruyi, the person inside the trap, do you understand?

"Su Lv, if it's as you said, mother is indeed scheming." Huo Mingzhu raised her head and looked at Su Lv, as though she had thought of something, and said, as though she knew the whole story.

"Miss, we should think of a way to help Miss Yu." Su Lv said.

Huo Mingzhu's eyes were very calm: "But if mother knew that we were doing this, with our methods, would you and I be mother's match? "Hrm?"

She caused Su Lv to shiver: "That's right, if Madam knows that Miss destroyed her business, she would definitely do it to Miss. After all, Miss is a girl, how could she be a match for Madam? "Miss, if you get punished by Madam, I won't get any benefits either!"

Su Lv bit her lips in pain, her eyes filled with unease.

Seeing that the time had come, Huo Mingzhu took the chance and spoke to Su Lv: Su Lv, since we have no other choice and can't let mother decide our future, why not take the risk and find a way out of this General's House, what about it?

"Miss, what method have you thought of?" Su Lv had absolute faith in Huo Mingzhu, after hearing her words, she immediately turned to look at Huo Mingzhu.

Huo Mingzhu smiled with a fiery gaze: "Many times I have been disappointed, which allowed me to see Mother a little clearly, that Mother may be my aunt, but in the end, she is not my biological mother. In her eyes, I am just a burden that can take care of my ancestor and uncle's face, it doesn't matter. My entire life cannot be buried in the hands of my mother. If she wants me to live, then I will live. If she wants me to die, then I will die. Thus, from today onwards, everything will be up to me. No matter how many layers there are in the Azure Sky, I will slowly climb upwards, all the way until I reach a safe place. Su Lv, are you willing to accompany me? "

Su Lv didn't understand what Huo Mingzhu was saying. She was a happy girl and wholeheartedly followed Huo Mingzhu. She never thought that she would encounter such traps that she had never thought of before. She looked at Huo Mingzhu for a while, her gaze slowly becoming resolute, "Miss, ever since you went to Fringe City, I have followed you. At that time, I was only a few years old back then, and during these ten years, we have been together everyday. Although Su Lv doesn't understand your intentions, Su Lv is willing to listen to you. If Miss wants to go up to the Nine Layer Jade Sky Tower, Su Lv will follow you and share the hardships with you. In the end, people always live for themselves, Miss, Su Lv is the best. "

As expected, Su Lv did not disappoint him. Su Lv had to tell Huo Mingzhu that she and him were grasshoppers on the same string, and with Huo Mingzhu's current worries and worries, she would be at ease.

Therefore, Huo Mingzhu extended her hand and caressed Su Lv's face, wiping the tears that she had been forced to shed due to shock, and said with a smile: "Su Lv, it's a promise. From today onwards, the only person your young miss can rely on and trust is you."

The master and servant sighed for a while, then Su Lv finally thought of the main topic, and asked: "Miss, what are you planning to do about the Miss Yu and that Young Master Xu?"

Huo Mingzhu looked out of the window and laughed: "Don't be anxious, even if mother wanted to marry my aunt again, she would not immediately agree to marry her. Furthermore, I do not know what my cousin thinks, but perhaps she does not have good feelings for Young Master Xu. And you, now listen to me, secretly go see what my cousin and Young Master Xu are doing. "We haven't had lunch yet. If you're interested, we should still be chatting."

Huo Mingzhu did not go anywhere, and did not reveal herself, as if she was planning her strategy. Through the incident with Lin Ruyi, Su Lv had no doubts about Huo Mingzhu's judgement, and without a word, went back to the flower garden.

In this side room, he said that Yu Tong and Xu Junru had indeed progressed a lot. Initially, Yu Tong had not been able to arouse any interest in Xu Junru due to him connecting the strings. No matter how good-looking he looked, she merely glanced at him once and did not give him a deeper thought. Even if she led Xu Junru around the garden, Yu Tong would unwillingly accompany him and would not look at him closely.

As for Xu Junru, although he did not like women, he was not a complete slut. His greatest hobby was to go to the Southern Wind Hall to drink and drink with the other footman s. He originally wanted to live a carefree life, but as his only son, his parents forced him, and the eyes of outsiders, he could not let him go. This time, after Lin Ruyi linked the dots, he wanted to look for a marriage, and it didn't matter if it was good or bad.

As the young master of a noble family, Xu Junru could be considered to have a good background.

Yu Tong's mind was not here, and she did not have much energy to walk, she suddenly stumbled on the stairs, and when she saw that she was about to fall miserably, Xu Junru quickly supported her, causing Yu Tong's body to fall into Xu Junru's embrace.

The story of the talented girl that was sung in the script mostly originated from the story of a hero saving a beauty or falling in love at first sight. It was probably because of panic, but when Yu Tong fell into Xu Junru's embrace, he immediately raised his head and saw her bright eyes.

"Miss Yu, how is it? Scared? Did you fall anywhere? " Xu Junru asked worriedly.

Yu Tong quickly retreated out of his embrace, tidied up her own clothes, and stuttered: "Oh, there's nothing there to thank Young Master Xu for saving me."

Xu Junru politely took half a step back. He was not as greedy as the other party, "It's good that Miss Yu is fine."

stole a glance at him, but he only looked at her gently. He seemed to be like a young noble who was a good match for her in a play. Yu Tong's heart was in a mess, he did not dare to keep looking, and hurriedly looked away to find words to talk. "Young Master Xu, the lotus leaves in the lotus pond actually grew a lot, but the lotus flower will only bloom after a few more days."

Xu Junru followed her gaze and saw that the lotus leaf in the lotus pond had appeared. It had already covered more than half of the water surface and had grown quite well, as though everything was ready, and was only waiting for the lotus flower to bloom. He waved the folding fan in his hand and said with a sigh, "Lotus leaves do suit the occasion, but lotus flowers are the best in my heart. They can be seen from afar but not scoffed at!"

Yu Tong thought that he was lamenting about her poetry for a moment, but didn't expect that Xu Junru's next sentence would be directed at her: "This humble one thought that Miss Yu's temperament would be similar to that late arriving lotus flower. Even after waiting for a long time and seeing her elegance blossom, I felt that this life was not in vain."

Since ancient times, beautiful men were easily able to get on the girls' good opinion. If this beautiful man was more proficient in zither, chess, calligraphy, art, and art, then he would have an extraordinary temperament.

Yu Tong's heart skipped a beat, her face flushed red, her eyes dodging as well. She did not dare look straight at Xu Junru, and frowned: "Young Master Xu is too kind, how can I compare to that lotus flower?"

Since Xu Junru dared to compete with Yu Tong using a lotus, it naturally made sense and hurriedly said in a serious tone, "Miss Yu, please don't think that I'm spouting nonsense. Before I even arrived at the General's Estate, I had already heard that Miss Yu came from the Southern Qingcheng. I heard that the people there are simple and honest, and are not as flourishing as Shang Jing, but Miss Yu can actually produce such a calm and refined temperament, with a beautiful face, wouldn't it be similar to a lotus flower? The same innocence, unassuming. "

Most of the men who had countless female friends would talk sweetly to each other, and women's ears were more useful than their eyes, especially for their daughters in the pavilion. They were trapped deep in the courtyard, and most of the time they were only listening with their ears shut, unable to see their eyes.

How could Yu Tong not be moved when he met a Young Master who made her ears and eyes feel comfortable?

She received Xu Junru's praise, so she could not directly reply, and bit her lips: "Young Master Xu, don't say it again, I am not as good as you make me out to be."

With these words, she lowered her head and ran up to the pavilion by the lakeside.

Xu Junru laughed and followed along. He had been searching for a long time just to find a suitable candidate to get married, and his family background did not need to be that outstanding. As a relative of the general's house, although it was weaker than their Xu family, because of the girl's family background, they would be able to get married without a lot of trouble.

If he had to find a girl to marry into his family, then he had to find a pretty and stupid one. What were flowery words worth? There was no need to waste any strength. No matter how much she wanted, he would give her as much as he could.

"What kind of books do you like to read? Or like what? " Xu Junru chased after Yu Tong, and in the pavilion, he still politely smiled and asked, taking the initiative to converse with Yu Tong.
