Chapter 5 The tragic general Jin in Long Ao Tianwen (5)
When Cui Zhenyi woke up again, she found herself in a strange house.
A little maid next to her was brewing medicine. She looked very familiar. She was the maid who sent her back to Cen's house that day.
"Miss Cui, wake up. I'll go get the doctor."
Cui Zhenyi felt that she was still a little faint and nauseated, and there was a pain in the back of her head that could not be ignored.
She wanted to reach out and touch it, but was stopped by the maid.
"Miss Cui, don't touch it yet. The injury on the back of your head is very serious. The doctor has given you some medicine to bandage it, but it may take more than a month for the wound to heal."
Only then did Cui Zhenyi recall what happened before she fell into coma.
That's a bronze incense burner, it can kill people.
He actually took action without mercy.
"I want to meet your lady."
After a long silence, Cui Zhenyi spoke.
She wanted to know what Shi Ran wanted to do.
Now, she has confirmed that Shi Ran is not the kind of young lady who is led by love as she thought.
But why did she save herself?
Also, who is the mysterious time-travelling compatriot of unknown origin next to her? How much modern information did he reveal to her?
Cui Zhenyi met Shi Ran three days later.
During these three days, she was extremely anxious every minute and every second.
The moment she saw Shi Ran, she even felt relieved.
Shi Ran sat leisurely on a chair. The maid beside her poured hot tea for her. She picked up the tea cup and spoke calmly.
"Do you know where I rescued you from?"
Shi Ran didn't hesitate and directly accepted this life-saving grace.
Cui Zhenyi slowly shook her head.
In the past few days, she had also wondered.
She didn't think Cen Jing would stop after knocking her unconscious.
So, how did Shi Ran bring herself out?
She also asked the maid who was serving her, but the maid was very strict and could not say a word.
"I dug you out of the earth."
Shi Ran smiled brightly, as if he was telling a joke.
But Cui Zhenyi felt as if the blood all over her body had gone cold, and she shivered unconsciously.
"He wants to bury me alive?!"
Even if I don’t have the friendship of fellow travelers, I am still a living person!
Cen Jing also comes from modern society, how could he do such a cold-blooded disregard for the law?
Cui Zhenyi suddenly discovered that no matter how highly educated she was, she was not even as good as a child when it came to recognizing people.
He actually cared about such a beast who couldn't even be considered a human being for so long. Even for the sake of his reputation as a genius, he, a science student, still tried his best to help him recall the poems and lyrics he remembered.
I believe what he said, he is not plagiarizing, he is just using the works of his ancestors to gain a foothold in this dynasty.
"Miss Shi, there must be some use for you to save my life. How can I repay you for saving my life?"
Cui Zhenyi slowly walked to Shi Ran.
She solemnly knelt down and saluted Shi Ran.
This was not that she was kneeling to the nobles of feudal society, but that she was kneeling to her savior.
Shi Ran, she not only saved his life, but also pulled him back from his foolish path.
Shi Ran slowly put down the tea cup in her hand, and her eyes fell on the white gauze wrapped around Cui Zhenyi's head.
In the novel, Cui Zhenyi is an indispensable right-hand man for Cen Jing to expand his power in the middle and later stages.
Cement, gunpowder, salt production...
Compared with Cen Jing, who only knows poetry, Cui Zhenyi obviously has more modern and sophisticated knowledge reserves.
It's a pity that such a woman was trapped and died in the harem in the name of a good concubine.
No one remembers what a stunningly talented and beautiful woman she once was.
When Shi Ran died, were her tears shed for Shi Ran or for herself?
At that time, the face of Cui Zhenyi, who came from modern times, had become blurred. She became a virtuous concubine and was completely assimilated into this ancient time.
The ideas she once shouted have been lost in the long river of time.
No one remembers, no one cares.
Gently leaning down, Shi Ran whispered, "I want you to be the sharpest sword hidden in the dark in the Shi family."
Cui Zhenyi looked up suddenly.
Shi family, what do you want with your sword?
She had a very bold guess in her mind.
Shi Ran gently lifted Cui Zhenyi's chin and looked at her seriously, looking at the ambition and integrity in her eyes that had not been crushed by this era.
"Since ancient times, women have to stay in the boudoir. When they go out to do business, they are exposed to the public. When they study literature and martial arts, they are unruly. It is unethical to overpower men. But Cui Zhenyi, you are very lucky. You have seen boys and girls. As for equality, I have seen that women can choose their future as they please. So, do you want to fight for a future for today's women?"
Cui Zhenyi felt her heart skip a beat.
Does she want to?
She wanted it too much!
She hated this era.
When she first came to this era, she was almost sold as a concubine. Later, she was pointed out and gossiped about many times on the way to escape. Later, when she met Cen Jing, she could only appear in front of others as her cousin.
She clearly could not lose to Cen Jing in any aspect, but she could only slowly become the shadow behind him.
She hates this era, but is slowly assimilating to it.
"Is it possible? Just rely on us?"
Cui Zhenyi asked in a low voice.
There are so many outstanding women in history books, but their achievements always seem to be accompanied by stigma.
Shi Ran smiled freely.
"Maybe our generation can't do it, but at least we can leave hope for future generations of women. No matter how bad it is, will it be worse than now?"
Not anymore.
Even if women's status can improve a little bit, it will be their victory.
After a while, Cui Zhenyi straightened her hair and folded her sleeves, then she knelt down again towards Shi Ran.
"You will live up to your trust."
This time, what she kneeled on was her own ideals and beliefs.
Once, she had the ability to overpower so many men, and she walked into the research institute through many obstacles.
Even if so many people dislike me, they still can't kill me.
Now, you can do it yourself!
Cui Zhenyi no longer wanted to ask Shi Ran if there was another time traveler under his command.
She was almost certain.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for Shi Ran, a woman who grew up in the discipline of an aristocratic family, to know so much about modern times.
Shi Ran smiled with satisfaction.
In the novel, Cui Zhenyi, the biggest internal helper around Cen Jing in the middle and later stages, has been instigated by himself to rebel.
Then, it’s time to focus on Cen Jing’s biggest boost in the early stage.
Today’s Holy Lord.
He is also the biggest enemy that has always wanted to eradicate the Shi family.
So, Cen Jing got the news the next day.
The wedding scheduled for next spring, Shi Ran requested, must be held in his house.
Cen Jing looked at the small courtyard that he was now in, which was only two meters in. He suddenly felt worried.
How can we get rid of this stretched house?
But if he were to buy another mansion, where would he spend so much money?
