Happiness Consist in Contentment

The leader of the Royal Dark Guard looked at a woman wearing a black mask and black clothes standing in the courtyard below, and frowned.

The intelligence clearly stated that Liu Jing was already a cripple, how could she still pick up a sword and fight back?

Is the information wrong?

The dark guard commander couldn't figure it out, but he couldn't just retreat like this. He narrowed his eyes slightly, raised his hand, and let everyone shoot arrows: try her first and then talk about it.

In an instant, a dense array of short arrows flew towards Liu Fang, Liu Jing in the room tightened her heart, she couldn't help grasping Liu Yizhen's arm tightly, staring at her sister nervously.

Liu Yizhen's hand hurt when she grabbed her, her brows wrinkled, she endured it, but she didn't say anything because she was worried about her master.

Liu Fang looked at the flying arrows, raised her hand, swung the long sword, and shot all the short arrows back, wounding the defenseless royal guards.

The leader of the dark guard standing on the roof was startled, his eyes widened slightly, and he looked at Liu Fang in disbelief.

At this moment, Liu Fang stepped down a little, and with a long sword in hand, he flew towards the commander of the dark guard!

The dark guard commander sneered, raised his weapon and went up to fight back.

When the other dark guards saw it, they immediately put away their bows and crossbows, and drew their weapons to besiege Liu Fang, but at this moment, a woman dressed in the same clothes appeared behind, holding a long sword and directly killing the other royal family standing on the roof. Dark guard.

The dark guard commander was shocked!

What exactly is going on?

But he didn't have time to think about it. The long sword in Liu Fang's hand attacked extremely fast, and his moves were fatal. He had no time to distract himself, so he could only concentrate on dealing with it.

However, the more he fought against this person, the more frightened he became. This person's inner strength is too deep, right? He was so shocked that his mouth was about to burst!

Seeing that he was lost again, Liu Fang took the opportunity to speed up the attack in his hand, stabbed his shoulder with a sword, quickly pulled it out, and stabbed him in the heart again.

The commander of the dark guard quickly turned over to dodge and almost fell off the roof.

It turned out that before he knew it, he had been forced to the edge of the roof, and when he turned to avoid it, he was hanging by the eaves, clinging to the roof with one hand, and falling off at any time.

Liu Fang's feet were shocked, and the zhenqi directly shattered the tiles and shot at the commander of the dark guard. At the same time, she stabbed him with a long sword.

The dark guard commander couldn't, so he had to let go of his hand, rolled over, landed on the ground, raised his sword in hand, and faced Liu Fang, who was following him.

Liu Fang didn't hold back at all, and slapped the dark guard commander's long sword with his left hand, causing his mouth to burst, the long sword dropped, and the sword in his hand stabbed him directly.

Under his unbelievable gaze, Liu Fang drew out his long sword lightly, flew onto the roof again, and killed the other royal guards.

The commander of the dark guard fell to the ground, staring at Liu Fang with open eyes, unable to rest his eyes.

He could never figure out what was going on.

Liu Fang and another person wearing the same clothes killed all the royal guards on the roof, then jumped down with a long sword, took off the mask, walked to the window in front of Liu Jing's room, and said to her, "Eldest sister. , you see, these are that person's love for you."

Liu Yizhen had already let go of his hand and stood back.

Liu Jing looked at Liu Fang, who was full of vigor and still had a cold face that had not subsided. The luck in her heart was completely shattered, and the once good memories were completely disillusioned by her sister's irony.

She closed her eyes, then opened them, and said with red eyes, "Sister, I have decided, I will kill him myself!"

Liu Fang looked at the firm sadness in Liu Jing's eyes, lowered her eyes, and said, "That's good. Yizhen will stay by your side, she will only protect you. You can rest assured that she will not interfere in any of your affairs."

After that, Liu Fang turned around and left with Bai Zhu, who also took off his mask.

Liu Jing looked at her figure about to walk out of the backyard, and said loudly, "Sister, are we still sisters? In the future, can we meet again?"

Liu Fang stopped, turned her back to her, and said in a distant voice, "Maybe we will see you again."

As soon as she finished speaking, she walked out, Bai Zhu looked back at Liu Jing, sighed, turned her head and quickly followed her master.

Liu Jing stood by the window and wept silently. Father, it turns out that my sister has always been better than me!

...

Liu Fang handed over the follow-up to Liu Yizhen and left with the help of others.

When she returned to Ningzhou Mansion, she happened to hear the news of Li Qinzhi's wedding.

She raised her eyebrows slightly, the speed is really fast enough!

After she rested for two days, she exchanged with the shadow and continued to sit in the Anhe Hall to see a doctor.

One day, a matchmaker came to the pharmacy, and as soon as he entered the door, he told Liu Fang that the second wife of the Fang family in Dongcheng liked her and wanted to hire her as his daughter-in-law.

Liu Fang: …

What the **** is this?

Why did she have so many troubles when she returned from a trip to the frontier?

When she asked Shadow to ask, she realized that it was because of Li Qinzhi's entanglement before, so the people around suddenly found out: Miss Liu, the shopkeeper of An He Tang, Doctor Liu is not too young, she is sixteen years old. You can get married!

Liu Fang: …

damn

, is she still too late to slap the scholar to death now?

However, she also understands that getting married must be done.

Not to mention that if she succeeds in ascending the throne in the future, she also needs an heir, but now, in order to continue a stable life, she still wants to get married, otherwise, in two years, she will be forced to marry by the Ningzhou government. .

Rather than tossing around again when the time comes, she might as well choose an honest person to marry, which is more worry-free.

As for finding someone to like?

Ahem, Liu Fang had been locked in the backyard by the prime minister's father, and had never seen outsiders. When she came out later, everyone she met was scared off by her excessively powerful force.

Therefore, people who knew her were reluctant to marry her. She could only find someone who didn't know her and had a good character to marry.

Besides, she has never been a sentimental person. As long as she can live a stable life, she feels that it is the same as marrying anyone.

Therefore, Liu Fang began to send people to investigate the unmarried men of the same age as her in Ningzhou Mansion, mainly to investigate the other party's character and family.

The simpler the family, the better, and it is enough to be honest and responsible. As for the family background? Not to be hungry.

After a month of investigation, Liu Fang obtained three candidates who had been carefully selected by his subordinates.

One was the son of a wealthy businessman from Ningzhou Prefecture, but this was the only son, so Liu Fang gave up immediately: the only son of a rich man, the family's expectations must be very high, so she should not get involved.

One is the well-known scholarly family in Dongcheng, the son of the Wang family.

This person's family is very simple. There is only one widowed mother and a younger sister. The younger sister is fifteen and will be married soon next year.

As for the prince, he originally planned a marriage, but the woman's family later climbed up the high branches, so she withdrew from the marriage, so that the prince was delayed like this.

As for the other son of Xungui's family, Liu Fang just skipped it: she was about to overthrow Yang Guo, and after marrying Xungui?

Doesn't this obviously leave a handle for the future?

She was too lazy to toss.

Wang Shen's son, Wang Shen, is about the same age as her, his family is good, the population is simple, and the people of the scholarly family still need face.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have allowed Wang Shen's fiancee to climb the high branches, and they didn't say anything about the divorce.

If you change to another family, there is always something to complain about behind your back, but this Wang family has never done that.

Even Mrs. Wang Shen's mother, Mrs. Wang's family, never mentioned it in front of outsiders.

Branch's fiancee, how is it.

It can be seen that the behavior of their family: either they are so generous or careless, or they know how to pretend to the end.

Anyway, no matter which one it is, it is not bad for Liu Fang.

The former is naturally good and worry-free, and the latter, she also has enough confidence to restrain the whole family.

After all, she married, and life would not be too bad.

that's enough.

So Liu Fang waited for the Wang family to send someone to propose marriage.

Now it is not so easy for the prince of the Wang family to find the right family.

Some people think their family is good, and some people think they are too hypocritical.

Moreover, the prince of the Wang family had broken off the marriage, which persuaded some people to quit.

In a word, Wang Shen, the son of the Wang family, is also a big problem in the marriage market in Ningzhou.

Both parents have died, and there is an estate like An Hetang. If you marry, you will directly marry with all your wealth, which is just right for a scholarly family like the Wang family.

The scholarly family said it nicely, but in fact, everyone knew what was inside.

In particular, the Wang family, with orphans and widow mothers, can keep their family property and maintain their dignity. They want to live a very rich life?

That really doesn't exist.

So, just as Liu Fang thought, within a few days, the Wang family sent a matchmaker to propose marriage.

Because Liu Fang had no elders, she asked Dr. Lin's wife, Mrs. Lin, to come forward. According to her intention, she was a little reserved and declined twice, and the third time she agreed.

Bai Shu saw that Mrs. Wang's family brought someone to be hired in person, and the betrothal gift was still decent and thoughtful. Although she felt aggrieved for her master, she didn't show it, but in private, she couldn't help but ask Liu Fang.

"Master, why did you choose this prince of the royal family?"

In terms of talent, the son of the Wang family is not very talented, and this year’s exam was only a middle-ranking place. In terms of money, the Wang family can’t compare to her master at all—just An Hetang, the monthly It's a lot of money, let alone anything else.

She couldn't figure out why the master had to choose him.

Sitting behind the desk in the study, Liu Fang said, "Actually, it's because the Wang family is simple."

She has already understood that the Wang family's wife is a bit rigid, but she is a good person.

Wang Shen, the son of the Wang family, is not very smart, but he is very filial. He grew up in a very simple environment, and his conduct is naturally very simple.

In addition, there is the Wang family girl, also

It was Wang Shen's younger sister, Wang Qing. She was a rather straightforward person.

Moreover, she is about to get married soon, and she will not get along with Liu Fang, the elder sister-in-law, for a long time. In this way, there is no contradiction at all.

Such a simple family environment is the most suitable for Liu Fang now.

In fact, if it wasn't for Li Qinzhi being too ambitious, she might have chosen him too.

After all, his family only had an elderly widowed mother, and his family was still poor. If Liu Fang married him, no matter what, he would have a good life.

However, Liu Fang had no idea of ​​poverty alleviation, let alone the idea of ​​sacrificing himself, so he directly asked Li Qinzhi to change his goal and was too lazy to entangle with him.

Now, Young Master Wang is fine.

Although Liu Fang does not have to get married, she will spend more energy to deal with the government. She really doesn't want to waste time.

Getting married is not a big deal.

Yang Guo doesn't discriminate against women and Li so much here. If it really can't go on, she can just talk to Li directly, and she doesn't need to worry too much at all.

Of course, unless she had to, she was still willing to manage her marriage well, and no one wanted to end up like that.
