Quickly wear a life of peace

Bai Lian looked at the ghost woman in front of her quietly, her heart full of curiosity. She should have been born in a wealthy family, which could be seen from her manners and clothes.

But now, she appeared in the form of an evil spirit, disturbing the county magistrate and his family.

The woman had a good impression of Bai Lian and did not hide it. She told Bai Lian all about her experiences.

It turned out that the woman's real name was Gu Qingqing, and she was the eldest daughter of the Minister of Revenue, Gu Changping.

However, the national treasury was robbed overnight, and the emperor was furious. He imprisoned all the officials of the Ministry of Revenue, from the minister to the minor clerks.

He ordered the Ministry of Justice, Dali Temple and other departments to thoroughly investigate the matter, but this matter was too strange to be easily investigated.

But the imperial court needed money everywhere, and when the treasury was robbed, the emperor raided the homes of officials in the Ministry of Revenue and exiled their entire families.

Gu Qingqing was originally engaged to the eldest son of the Minister of Rites and was going to get married soon. But after this incident, the engagement was also cancelled.

It was nothing at first, it was human nature, and Gu Qingqing was willing to be exiled with her family.

But the bad thing was that Gu Qingqing was too beautiful and accidentally caught the eye of the current county magistrate, the second son of the then Marquis of Cheng'en, the playboy Feng Ershao.

But the Gu family was at its peak at that time, and the eldest daughter of the Gu family was not something a mere playboy like him could dream of, not to mention that Gu Qingqing was already engaged at that time.

But once the Gu family fell into decline, the situation reversed, and Gu Qingqing, the daughter of a guilty minister, was no longer worthy of the son of the Cheng'en Marquis' family.

The second young master Feng devised a plan to get Gu Qingqing out and secretly placed her in one of his private residences.

Gu Qingqing wanted to die to show her loyalty at first, but Feng Ershao threatened her that if she dared to commit suicide, her whole family would be killed. Gu Qingqing had no choice but to compromise for the sake of her family.

The second Young Master Feng probably really fell in love with Gu Qingqing. He treated her very well and took good care of the exiled Gu family. Gu Qingqing even received news from her family from time to time.

Unfortunately, the good times did not last long. Young Master Feng was soon arranged to get married. For the sake of his family, he married Princess Le Yao, the daughter of Prince Changping, who was a famous shrew in the capital.

Young Master Feng was naturally dissatisfied, but he still had to rely on his family, so he had no choice but to compromise.

However, he used this as a condition to find himself a job. However, his notoriety was too great, so he was definitely not eligible for a job in the capital, so he had to be sent to another place to be a minor official.

Although his official position was not high, the emperor was far away and he had the support of the royal and marquisate, so he could naturally live a carefree life.

Unfortunately, although he was satisfied, Princess Le Yao was not.

Although there is no one to control us here, it is still inferior to the capital in many ways. The clothes are not as exquisite and beautiful as those in the capital, and the materials are not as fashionable and comfortable as those in the capital.

The food is not as delicious as that in the capital, and the snacks are not as exquisite and tasty as those in the capital.

The most hateful thing is that Young Master Feng’s heart is not with her. He even brought Gu Qingqing here and only stayed with her every day.

Princess Le Yao naturally knew Gu Qingqing, a famous lady from a noble family in the capital, and she had once been extremely jealous of her.

When the Gu family fell into decline, Princess Le Yao once openly gloated over their misfortune, but now the person who once made her jealous and looked down on has snatched her husband away.

How could Princess Le Yao, who had always gotten whatever she wanted, bear this?

In a rage, he took advantage of the fact that Young Master Feng was not at home and captured Gu Qingqing and tortured her.

Young Master Feng rushed over after hearing the news, but was unable to save her, and instead angered Princess Le Yao even more.

The angry Princess Le Yao immediately ordered people to kill the entire Gu family.

Gu Qingqing did not give herself to Young Master Feng willingly because he threatened her with her family. Now her family was going to be killed because of them and her husband. How could she bear it?

He immediately pleaded for mercy to Princess Le Yao and committed suicide, but he was worried that his family would be implicated by her, and he could not let it go, so he did not want to reincarnate.

Princess Le Yao was indeed unwilling to let her family go, so she sent people to harm the Gu family. She also took the Gu family's personal belongings and placed them in front of Gu Qingqing's corpse to provoke and insult her.

Gu Qingqing couldn't bear it anymore and was finally provoked into turning into a fierce ghost, torturing them every day.

After listening to Gu Qingqing's story, Bai Lian felt so distressed for her. Although she was talking nonsense, as the successor of orthodox Taoism, Bai Lian could naturally see that what she said was true.

This made Bai Lian at a loss as to how to comfort her. It seemed that all the words could not soothe her inner pain and self-blame, and she could only accompany her in silence.

In silence, Bai Lian seemed to be able to feel the pain and obsession in Gu Qingqing's heart. Her existence seemed to be a complaint, a dissatisfaction and anger towards the world.

Bai Lian sighed inwardly, life is unpredictable, who can predict the direction of fate?

However, Bai Lian still thought of a way that might be able to help her a little.

Bai Lian looked at Gu Qingqing and asked softly, "Do you need me to use the tracking and spirit-finding techniques to help you check on the current situation of your family members?"

When Gu Qingqing heard this, a hint of excitement flashed in her eyes, and her voice trembled slightly: "Really? Can you really help me?" She grasped Bai Lian's sleeve tightly, as if she had grabbed a life-saving straw.

Bai Lian smiled and nodded, signaling Gu Qingqing to relax. Gu Qingqing took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down, but her eyes were still full of earnestness and expectation.

She bent her legs and knelt down. Bai Lian was shocked and hurried to help her. Gu Qingqing refused to get up. Tears welled up in her eyes and she said in a choked voice, "Please, help me! I haven't seen them for a long time. I'm really worried about them."

Bai Lian's heart softened, and she quickly agreed: "Okay, I promise you, I will do my best to help you."

Gu Qingqing then stood up, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and thanked Bai Lian repeatedly.

Bai Lian smiled and comforted her: "You're welcome, I will do my best to help you."

Afterwards, Bai Lian began to use the tracking technique, hoping that the Gu family was still alive!

When Bai Lian cast the tracking spell, a faint light filled the room. She stared at Gu Qingqing's bloodstain intently, muttering something and casting a spell.

The light gradually gathered into a flashing point, and then evolved into a clear image. Bai Lian was surprised to find that all twelve members of the Gu family were still alive, and their figures were clearly visible in the image.

A happy smile immediately appeared on Bai Lian's face. She turned to Gu Qingqing excitedly, with joy shining in her eyes.

"Ms. Gu, I found your family! They are all still alive!" Bai Lian said excitedly, his voice full of joy.

When Gu Qingqing heard the news, her worried expression was instantly replaced by surprise. She widened her eyes, tears welling up in her eyes.

"Really? Are they really still alive?" Gu Qingqing asked anxiously, her voice trembling slightly.

Bai Lian hurriedly told Gu Qingqing the information in the image, describing her family's situation in detail.
