The wedding date was set, and the wedding invitation card was changed.
Ding Mujie thought he could marry Lin Wan and spend the rest of his life with her.
But three days later, his mother suddenly came and looked for him and said with a gloomy face, “Dear son, I just asked someone to check on the marriage astrology between you and Lin Wan.
You are the fire in the sword, and she is the water in the sky.
You two are incompatible as fire and water, and your lives are incompatible.
If you insist on being together, I’m sure you’ll make a scene in the future.

“How is that possible?” Ding Mujie denied subconsciously.

His sister, Ding Xiang, immediately agreed, “Mom, who is that fortune teller who said so? How could he get such an outrageous conclusion? Brother and Lin Wan sis are a perfect match! “

Ding’s mom knocked her forehead and scolded, “What fortune teller? Don’t talk nonsense! I consulted a grand preceptor about their marriage astrology.
How can that be inaccurate?” The grand preceptor is a well-known virtuous woman in the Wei dynasty.
She was very proficient in metaphysics.
All the rich families in Beijing liked to consult her for fortune-telling, and they were almost accurate.
If it weren’t for the help of the Lin family, she wouldn’t have the right to meet the grand preceptor.

When Ding Xiang heard that the grand preceptor calculated the Ba-Zi, she immediately went quiet.
She glanced carefully at her brother with full of sympathy.

For some reason, Ding Mujie suddenly remembered that the grand preceptor had taken Lin Wan as her apprentice in his previous life and helped her gain a firm foothold in the backyard of King Kang.
Otherwise, after the Lin family was destroyed, Lin Wan would not be able to live well.
Ding Mujie didn’t know how and when she got the favor of the grand preceptor.
He only knew that the grand preceptor treated her as her own daughter.

Now that something was wrong with the Ba-Zi, advised by the grand preceptor, Ding Mujie couldn’t help overthink.
Still, he blamed himself for being too suspicious.

He said gently, “Mom, please consult more people to check on our marriage astrology.
What if the grand preceptor miscalculated?”

However, Ding’s mom shook her head and said, “The grand preceptor said, if I don’t believe in what she said, I can place your wedding invitation card in front of the Stove Lord Statue to trail the God’s will.
If within three days, there are people or animals who were restless and broken bowls or lanterns in the house, there is no need to calculate anymore.
Both of you are certainly incompatible with each other.”

It is a tradition to place the wedding invitation card under the statue, and Ding Mujie had no reason to stop it.
He nodded and said, “Okay, let’s test God’s will.” After saying goodbye to his mother, he immediately called in the servants at home.
He repeatedly urged them to be careful and not to be careless.
He believed that as long as everything went fine, his mother would not stop his marriage with Lin Wan.

At present, he was only a civilian.
He could only enter the imperial palace after the imperial examination.
At the same time, Lin Wan was the daughter of the general’s house.
If it weren’t for the fact that the Ding family engaged the daughter of the Lin Family in their heyday, he might not have been able to marry Lin Wan.
To put it bluntly, even if there was really something wrong with the marriage astrology between the two of them, for the sake of the power and influence of the Lin family, her mother would at most feel uncomfortable, but she would not cancel the marriage.

Ding Mujie believed that everything was under his control, so he didn’t worry at all.
But what bothered him was that many strange things had happened in the Ding family in the past three days.
First, the cats and dogs had become eccentric and irritable, often bark and bite, and then the fish in the pond had turned over overnight and died.

Ding’s mother was scared out of her wits, so she was even more convinced of what the grand preceptor said.
If it weren’t for the fact that Lin Wan was the daughter of the general’s house and she couldn’t afford to offend her, Ding’s mother would call off the engagement immediately.
But after careful consideration that her son’s future was more important.
She gritted her teeth and concealed the fact that the Ba-Zi between the two of them conflict.

The Lin family also sent people to combine their Ba-Zi, but General Lin tried to save face.
He did it with a former officer of the imperial astronomer and didn’t take it to the temple outside.
The result was definitely good, and he even said they were a perfect match.

Ding Mujie was shocked by the conflict Ba-Zi crisis, and Ding’s mother also felt terrible.
She had been delayed for a long time and hadn’t presented the bride price to the Lin mansion.

One day, it was said that Princess Ming Zhu would hold a flower party in the countryside village.
She invited all the ladies and young talents from the well-known families in Beijing to attend the party.
Finally, Ding Mujie could leave his books aside and participate in the party.
He knew that Lin Wan must be invited.
If he participated in the party, he might have the chance to meet her.
The two of them had wasted their lives with hatred.
They must be together for the rest of their lives.

Lin Dan also got the invitation, but she didn’t want to go, but her wound had already healed.
Mrs.
Lin was afraid that she would be bored at home, so she would force her to attend.

Princess Ming Zhu had always been at odds with Lin Dan.
She disliked her for her rudeness and ignorance, but because of the power of the Lin family, she had no choice but to date with her.
When the two of them get together, they would be like a diamond cut diamond.
However, this time, Lin Dan was quiet.
She just sat aside and ate cakes, ignoring the spies of Princess Ming Zhu.

Princess Ming Zhu took out a whip and flaunted, “This is a whip given to me by His Majesty.
He used it when he was young.
It’s terrific.”

“Oh my God! This is what His Majesty used!” The young ladies who were still touching the whip quickly withdrew their hands from it and praised, “No wonder the handle is inlaid with many rubies, and the tassels at the top are so smooth.
Normal craftsmen can’t make such a wonderful thing.”

“Oh?” Lin Wan said bluntly, “My sister also got a royal whip.
It’s better than this.”

Upon hearing this, Princess Ming Zhu was so angry and said aggressively, “My whip is the one and only in the world.
How can it be better than mine! I don’t believe it.
Why don’t y’all show it to me?”

Lin Dan said slowly, “Does my whip have anything to do with you? Why should I show it to you?” It took more than an hour to walk back and forth from the Lin mansion to this countryside village.
Who had the patience to get it for her?

Princess Ming Zhu waved her whip and stepped forward.
“Are you going to bring it? If you don’t get it, that means you are lying! “[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]

Lin Dan took a few steps back to avoid being hit by the tail of the whip.
Unexpectedly, Lin Wan suddenly pounced over and said anxiously, “Don’t hit my sister.
The wound on her leg has just healed…”

“When did I hit her?” Princess Ming Zhu unintentionally pushed Lin Wan away.
It was unexpected that Lin Wan took a few steps back and fell into the lake.
She couldn’t swim and just raised her hands and shouted for help.
The more she struggled, the more she moves to the center of the lake.

To increase the fun of the banquet, Princess Ming Zhu arranged the male guests and female guests on both sides of the lake.
It was fascinating to see each other across the sparkling lake.
As a result, the male guests on the other side of the lake immediately noticed the movement at this side and looked over.

She quickly took off her heavy robe and was about to jump into the lake to save her sister, but she suddenly stopped.
She squinted at Lin Wan with an unpredictable expression.
After a while, she put on her coat again.

A man ran out from the other side of the lake, jumped into the lake without taking off his clothes, and swam towards Lin Wan.
Then another man appeared and swam even faster.
The first man had already held Lin Wan in his arms and was about to drag her to the shore, but the later man grabbed her over and said in a deep voice, “Thank you, King Kang, but she is my fiancée.
I’d better carry her, or it will ruin her reputation.”

His reason was so convincing that King Kang couldn’t refuse.
He had to let go of the woman and swam ashore alone.

Ding Mujie looked at his back and then at Lin Wan, who was pale in his arms and swam towards the female guests.
After the two of them reached the shore, Lin Dan handed over her coat and said, “Her clothes are stuck to her body, prevent her from being exposed, you cover her with this.
I’ll inform my mother that you take her and wait at the carriage outside.
We’ll be out soon.

Ding Mujie quickly took her coat and covered Lin Wan tightly.
When he left the lake, he heard Princess Ming Zhu questioned, “Lin Dan, why didn’t you jump into the lake and save your sister just now? She defended you, but you stood on the shore and watched the fun! “

Lin Dan said in a calm tone, “How do you know she needs me to save her?”

Upon hearing this, Ding Mujie paused for a while and then continued to walk forward.
Lin Wan seemed to be frightened and embarrassed.
She only covered her face in his arms and refused to say a word.
Ding Mujie carefully put her into the carriage and stood outside comforted her softly.
Not long after that, Lin Dan and Mrs.
Lin came in a hurry to prevent Lin Wan from catching a cold.
The two didn’t say much to Ding Mujie.
They thanked him and left.

Ding Mujie stood by the road and gazed at their carriage.
His eyes darkened.
After a long time, he rolled up his sleeves to check the bleeding wounds on his arm caused by Lin Wan.
In her previous life, Lin Wan was saved by King Kang after falling into the water.
To maintain her reputation, she had to marry King Kang as a concubine.
In this life, although it was not the right time, he would not let her end up in the same way.
But he didn’t expect that when he swam to her side and tried to grab her over, she would resist him.

At that time, her eyes were opened, and she could recognize clearly who the person was, but why… as soon as Ding Mujie had the thought of it, it was quickly suppressed by him.
After returning home, he urged his mother to go to the Lin mansion to propose marriage and set the wedding date.
Ding’s mother was delayed for more than a month until it couldn’t be delay further.
She then only brought the gifts to the Lin mansion.

The wedding date was finally set in the early spring of the following year, and there were still eight to nine months left, which was enough for Ding Mujie to prepare.
But even so, he still felt insecure, so he instructed his sister to go to the Lin mansion more often and help him take care of Lin Wan.

Ding Xiang liked Lin Wan very much, so she agreed without hesitation.
But she didn’t expect that one day she would come back crying as if she had suffered a great grievance.
Ding’s mother had lost her husband in her early years.
She had worked hard to raise her son and daughter, so she couldn’t bear to see them being bullied.
She immediately held her daughter and asked, “Tell me, did Lin Dan bully you again?”

“No, it’s not Lin Dan,” Ding Xiang burped and blamed herself.
“It’s all my fault! I have made a big mistake!”

“What? What mistake did you make? Ding’s mother’s heart skipped a beat.

Ding Mujie, who had just entered the door and said with a long face, “Don’t worry.
Tell us slowly.
I’ll help you solve the problem.”

“Brother, I really didn’t mean to do that.
Today I wanted to see the headpiece that was placed at Aunt Shi’s by the great emperor.
But I didn’t expect that my hand exerted too much force to it and broke the Phoenix’s wing.
That’s the dowry of the great empress, which is very precious.
When the great empress knew about it, she was furious.
No matter how I apologized to her, she ignored me.
Brother, I didn’t mean it.
I didn’t expect it either!” 

Upon hearing this, Ding’s mother was so angry that she beat her daughter repeatedly.
It was her fault for being careless.
However, Ding Mujie’s eyes darkened, and it reminded him of a past that was ages ago.

In her previous life, Lin Wan was seriously ill and abandoned by King Kang in the countryside village.
He went and visit her secretly and listened to her recalling the past.
She held his hand and sighed, “If back then, I didn’t act tough and took the blame for my sister.
Now I wouldn’t have been detected by my ancestors.
I was so sick, but I couldn’t even go back home.
If I am given another chance, I would have told my ancestor bravely that my sister broke the headpiece, not me.
I miss my ancestors.
I miss my parents.
I want to go home… “

She was so pitiful, weak, and eager to miss her family and their loves, which deepened Ding Mujie’s disgust on Lin Dan.
But now, why did his sister break it?
