The Second Life of Hu Liena
1. Early Stories.

"Tyddaaakkk!" There was a hysterical scream in a very dark room.

"Miss, no! please ... hang in there!"

Seen someone who was struggling with both hands hugging a girl covered in blood, his appearance was very alarming and many lashes wounds all over his body.

"uhuk ... uhuk ..," The girl coughed and spewed blood from her mouth, her body was getting weaker, it seemed like she would not live any longer.

"Miss, hang! I'll ask for help, please hold on, miss." After saying that, he got up and approached the wall and started shouting.

"Tolloong .. help us!"

"I beg .. have mercy on us, miss innocent, she should not be treated like this. huhu ... Tollong!" He kept screaming for help, but no one would listen. Because the location where they are currently is very quiet and rarely visited by people.

At the same time, Hu Boqin was walking towards Gerha Rongyu with her personal guards. After some time earlier, he had to attend the trial that was in the palace today. However, there was chaos there and the trial was forced to be dissolved.

While in the middle of the journey, there was a sound of people asking for help.

"Tolloong .. help us!"

Hu Boqin moved her head left and right, then glanced towards her bodyguards. "Did you hear that?"

"Hamba heard it, sir. It seemed, that voice came from the back shed!" Answer Changing.

"Come, investigate!" Hu Boqin's Order.

"Good, Master! The answer. Then he moved as fast as lightning towards the back shed. Once there, Changing went through every corner of the page.

Inside the warehouse, Luqiu felt increasingly desperate for help. How not, Hu Liena's current condition was getting worse and repeatedly she vomited fresh blood. And his consciousness is declining.

"Miss ... wake up miss!" Said Luqiu while hugging Hu Liena's body. His two eyes swelled up due to the unceasing crying.

BRAAKKK

Amidst the screams of his cries, someone came and kicked the door of the barn hard until it shattered.

Luqiu turned her head and looked at the nanar of a man who was now starting to approach her.

"What's going on here?" Asked Changing to Luqiu.

"Please save us, sir!"

"Save us!" Said Luqiu slowly.

Changing crouched down trying to pay attention from a close direction, as soon as his eyes were fixed on Hu Liena, he shouted in shock.

"Miss Hu!"

"Come fast! We have to save him!" Changing said as he directly ran carrying Hu Liena out followed by Luqiu from behind.

Meanwhile, Hu Boqin who was waiting for the arrival of Changing also looked uneasy, she was curious about the voice of the person she heard.

After a while had passed, Hu Boqin finally saw the shadow of Changing from a distance. But, what made him feel astonished was the existence of a girl who was now in his arms.

Changing was getting closer and Hu Boqin felt more and more unease in her heart.

"Master! The master! We better hurry." Changing panicked. "Miss Hu is in danger!"

"What's going on?" Shouted Hu Boqin.

Changing immediately brought Hu Liena back to the flowerbed, then laid her on the bed.

Shortly after, Hu Boqin arrived at the flowerbed with a healer and Liqiu following behind her.

"Quick! Check him out, Doctor!" Hu Boqin's orders to healer Hong.

Physician Hong immediately examined Hu Liena's condition very carefully, occasionally shaking his head.

After Physician Hong finished examining and providing treatment, Hu Boqin walked up to him.

"What's going on?" Ask.

"I'm sorry, Sir!" He said, then went back to saying. "It's unlikely that Miss Hu could be saved, her injuries were left too long to cause swelling in some parts and it affected the damage to other vital organs."

"What do you mean, Doctor?" Hu Boqin.

"I mean, we can only hope for a miracle, Miss Hu's current condition is already very concerning. In addition, he had lost a lot of blood and it triggered the spread of poison within his body." Physician Hong.

"Poisons?" Hu Boqin was shocked to hear the words of Physician Hong.

"Yes, Sir." Physician Hong replied.

"How can there be poison in my daughter's body?"

"The poison is likely to have been in Miss Hu's body long enough, this is also what causes her endurance to weaken further and will take her life slowly. Had he not been hurt today, I might not have noticed the poison." The Physician Hong.

"So you're saying, there's been someone who's been intentionally giving him poison?"

"Yes!" Physician Hong replied briefly.

Once again, Hu Boqin felt in a slap by reality. All this time, he only knew that Hu Liena was extremely untalented in every way. Therefore she was more affectionate towards the daughter of Yueqin who could always make her feel proud, even everyone acknowledged that Xiulin was the most genius woman in the Zhou dynasty. As it turned out, all of her thoughts were wrong, Hu Liena was weak from the poison that was eating away at her body and depriving her of her ability.

Hu Boqin stared blankly in the distance, her memory retreated to a few years back. At that time his first wife, Lilian was often sickly after giving birth to Hu Liena. Until in the end Lilian died of an illness that was getting worse.

Hu Boqin was deeply hurt by his wife's death and he always felt that what happened in his life was not a coincidence but a misfortune and all his misfortune came from his daughter, Hu Liena. Since then, Hu Boqin has never once cared about her biological daughter. Even to this day, he had always ignored Hu Liena's existence.

"Master! Master!"

Changing's cry seemed to disperse his daydream, Hu Boqin then raised his head and turned towards Changing. It was clear that both of his eyes were emitting sadness and helplessness.

"Explain!" Said slowly.

"Tabib Hong said, if we have to get some herbs quickly to neutralize the poison in Miss's body. He also said it was likely that the plant would be found in the southern part of the forbidden forest."

"Alright, tell some people to look for him. If needed, we can hire paid people to get the plant found immediately." Hu Boqin.

"Good, Master!"

Hu Boqin took a heavy breath, then began to speak.

"Changing! Have you done what I told you to do?"

"Already, Master!"

"Quick, Say!" Said firmly.

"I've interrogated several people and the results show that Mrs Yueqin and her daughter are involved in the case today. And it seems, they are the brains behind the persecution that Miss Hu has endured."

"Allah ... Get them here!" Shouted Hu Boqin while clenching both hands tightly. He felt angry at the treatment of his wife and child.
