The county magistrate's daughter wanted to enter the palace, become a concubine, fly on a tree, and become a master, but she was born ugly and could not meet the conditions for election.
Therefore, the county magistrate's daughter felt very jealous that Mingjuan could enter the palace.
Jealousy of the elegant and beautiful Mingjuan led the county magistrate's daughter to team up with her father to commit a heinous thing.
They repeatedly inquired about Mingjuan's adoption of Dahuai Shu as her godfather. They used this matter as a reason for impeachment and wrote a letter of report to the official responsible for selecting the concubine.
He distorted the facts and labeled Mingjuan as an alien related to the tree demon, and said a lot of bad things about Mingjuan, and forcibly packaged a good-looking, well-informed and well-educated girl into a charming witch who was good at disguise.
When choosing a concubine for the emperor, in addition to appearance, moral character is naturally also a very important criterion.
After receiving this anonymous report letter, the official responsible for selecting the concubine dared to let Mingjuan enter the palace to accompany the king.
Not only did he withdraw Mingjuan's qualification to enter the palace, but he also came to Huaishu Village specifically to set up an execution ground here and burn Mingjuan to death, using this so-called "act of justice" to help the world's right path.
What's more, such acts of supporting justice will not only make him famous in front of the people, but also improve his political performance, allowing him to win the reputation of being a clean king and eliminating evil concubines for the king.
Not only can he be promoted and make a fortune, but he may also be famous for generations to come.
Just as the officials were preparing to lead a large group of people to Huaishu Village, heavy rain suddenly fell from the sky, blocking the officials' progress.
When the official saw this, he became even more convinced that Mingjuan from Huaishu Village was a demon girl who could control the wind and rain, and became even more determined to go to Huaishu Village to eliminate demons (to get promoted and make a fortune).
Also on this night when it rained heavily, an uninvited guest suddenly came to Mingjuan's home.
It was a handsome young man wearing green clothes.
As soon as he saw Mingjuan and her parents, the young man quickly told them anxiously that their family was about to be in disaster!
Naturally, the Mingjuan family refused to believe it.
The beautiful young man had no choice but to blush, grit his teeth, and reveal his identity.
It turns out that he is Mingjuan's "godfather", the big locust tree at the entrance of the village!
Dahuaishu told Mingjuan's family that since Miss Mingjuan recognized him as her godfather, it was impossible for him to watch something happen to his goddaughter.
This "godfather" told the Mingjuan family everything about what the county magistrate and his daughter had done, as well as the high-ranking official's decision.
And that heavy rain was caused by the big locust tree's spell to create an opportunity for Mingjuan's family to escape.
In order to help Mingjuan avoid this disaster, the big locust tree hid Mingjuan's family in a stone room opened in the well by a family hundreds of years ago to avoid the war.
In this way, when officials and county magistrates came to Huaishu Village, Mingjuan and her parents had already taken their belongings and hid in the stone room.
The officials and the county magistrate each had their own hidden agendas, so naturally they were not willing to let the matter go to waste.
Unable to find Mingjuan's family, they began to visit the village and posted wanted notices offering rewards everywhere...
It's a coincidence.
Three days after Mingjuan's family hid in the well, a child was playing by the well and accidentally fell into the well. He was rescued by the kind-hearted Mingjuan, but Mingjuan also exposed herself...
