Chapter 21
Duan Xiuran lifted his foot and walked in, Yuqiao saluted him when he saw him: "Your Excellency."

"En." He replied, sat down as if nothing had happened, and looked at Lingyao, who was still a little pale, still eating the porridge in the bowl, as if he didn't notice him, Yuqiao looked at her, still Duan Xiuran coughed twice before he spoke to remind him.

"Your Majesty's body is precious, so be careful not to catch the cold from Lingyao. If he bites you back, Lingyao will have nothing to do."

The moment she opened her mouth, she was ridiculed, but Duan Xiuran was not angry, she just asked: "You have an old leg disease, but... are you okay?"

"It can't be discarded, don't worry." Lingyao put down the spoon, "I have no appetite, Yuqiao, take it."

"Yes." Yuqiao packed up the leftovers, saluted and went down.

"Father and emperor summoned the son today, what are you talking about?" Perhaps because the atmosphere was too embarrassing, Ling Yao took the lead to break the silence and asked.

"It's just some state affairs. If you want to hear it, I..."

"No need," Lingyao interrupted him, "Women are not allowed to interfere in politics, unless forced by circumstances, they must not violate the laws of the country."

Although Duan Xiuran's words were retorted, he didn't feel annoyed.Looking at Lingyao, although she was a little sick, she was almost completely recovered. He stood up and put his hand on her forehead. It was a normal temperature.

Xu didn't expect him to act like this, Lingyao was taken aback, blushed slightly, and stammered: "You... what are you doing!"

"Just to see if Yao'er is cured." His voice was so close, right next to her ear, but it was scorching hot.

She pushed him away: "Dengtuzi!"

"You and I are already husband and wife, how can we become disciples?" Duan Xiuran looked at her, Ruyu's cheeks were slightly rouge, looking like a ripe cherry, very attractive.

He approached her step by step, trapped her in a small area of ​​​​the world, looked directly into her eyes, and said word by word: "I have been thinking about it, but I really can't figure out why Yao'er risked his life to save me many times. Now, If you think about it carefully, it's probably because your status as a princess makes you awkward and makes you feel that you shouldn't be the one to speak out about this joy, right?"

Lingyao doesn't know what he's thinking, Duan Xiuran is simply a complex of contradictions, while saying that he likes to marry Mingmei, but at the same time humiliating and sneering at each other many times. I remembered Erqi's voice: "Congratulations to the host, you have unlocked the target's love value!"

"What?" Lingyao asked.

"The target of the attack has love for the host for the love value. When the task is completed, the higher the love value, the higher the points you will get!"

"I don't..." Need it!

"The host still owes money, please think carefully!" Er Qi interrupted her, and then disconnected, quite a bit like "you can do whatever you like after I've said this".

Alright, this Erqi is taking her to death!
Lingyao came back to her senses and looked at him, with shyness and affection in her clear eyes: "If it wasn't for righteousness, I wouldn't give up my life; if it wasn't for kindness, I wouldn't forget my life. You have no righteousness for me, There is no great kindness, and some are just the joy that can be seen vaguely since I was young and ignorant."

He was a little ecstatic: "Yao'er, you really..."

"Your Majesty, Miss Bingning invites you to come over." Duan Xiuran was taken aback by the servant's voice from outside.

"Yao'er, Bingning is kind to me, you..."

"Whether it's a noble concubine or an ordinary wife, a gentleman must be able to repay a drop of water from the spring, not to mention a word that is hard to follow, and a promise that has been made, why can't it be hard to keep it? It's just that the emperor dotes on me, so I have to wait for a while. good."

He looked into her eyes, which were filled with sincerity and simplicity.He smiled softly and kissed her forehead: "Wait for me." Then he stood up and left.

As soon as Duan Xiuran left, Lingyao immediately woke up Erqi: "Erqi! Has your value increased?"

Erqi quickly replied: "It was 80.00% just now, and now it's 90.00%! The host continues to work hard!"

"Can you pay back the money I owe?"

Erqi didn't answer, it must have turned off automatically.

Lingyao was lying on the bed in a daze, she had no memory, the word "Yueheng" was the only thing in her mind, but who was Yueheng?For some reason, she always felt that Duan Xiuran had some connection with Yue Heng, but what was that connection?

Thinking about it, I felt drowsy, the illness came like a mountain, and the illness went like a thread, but this serious illness really made me feel sleepy, and I fell into a deep sleep not long after.

Bingyu Building.

As soon as Duan Xiuran came in, she saw Wu Bingning who was covering her face and weeping softly. When she saw him coming, she turned her head away, as if losing her temper.

But he didn't seem to see it, and asked: "What's the matter, why do you have to find me at such a late hour?"

Wu Bingning didn't speak, Shen Xin had no choice but to explain: "Hui Shizi, the girl said that her leg suddenly hurt badly, but she couldn't help it." She hesitated for a while, caught Wu Bingning's hinting eyes, and then gritted her teeth and continued: "I heard that the princess There is a new herbal knee pad that is effective for leg diseases, so I thought... can I borrow it?"

Seeing that Duan Xiuran didn't respond, and it was difficult to distinguish between happiness and anger, Shen Xin didn't dare to speak anymore. No matter how Wu Bingning winked, she pretended not to see it, cowering aside and lowering her head.

Wu Bingning was so angry that she took a deep breath and said: "The princess is domineering and domineering. Bingning has already annoyed the princess. If she goes, won't it cause trouble to Xiu Ran disciples? But she probably never thought about what she has now." , whose original one it belongs to!”

"Enough." Duan Xiuran said lightly, but he could already feel his displeasure, "Just now Yao'er said that she doesn't mind a noble concubine or a flat wife, how about you? I always thought you were frank, but now It seems that she is just a woman with no pattern!"

"Yaoer?!" Wu Bingning looked at him incredulously, "You call her Yaoer?!"

Duan Xiuran glanced at her face and didn't look at her again.

But Wu Bingning kept asking like she lost her mind: "Why do you call her Yao'er? Are you happy with her?! I knew it, I should have known it a long time ago! The vixen and charming people in the storybook are all true Yes, with her appearance, she looks like a monster who seduces people and hooks up with men!"

"Shut up!" Duan Xiuran got up angrily, frowned and said, "I'm so disappointed in you. Are the things you said should be said by a lady of a big family? How are you different from a shrew in the market! Yes, I would like to know, how did you find out that Yao'er got a pair of knee pads."

His voice was calm, but it was like a heavy stone falling into the water, causing turbulent waves in Wu Bingning's new lake, she tried to calm down, tears almost gushed out of her eyes, and said in a crying voice: "Xiu Ran thought I just wanted the princess's things? I was just probing, now it seems that it is better to pretend to be stupid and not to know, instead of proving that you have changed your mind, it is better to be stupid and deceive yourself that you still have me in your heart!"

This is to skip Duan Xiuran's questioning indiscriminately. I don't know if he noticed it, but he flicked his sleeves, said "rest early", and went out.

Wu Bingning watched his leaving back, gritted her teeth, and heard a "stab" sound, and the handkerchief in her hand became two halves.

"Zhao Lingyao, you are not a good princess, why do you insist on robbing me?! If this is the case, don't blame me for being rude!"

——Boundary——

When Lingyao woke up, it was just dawn, and she was sleepy last night, so she slept surprisingly well. When Yuqiao outside heard the movement, she hurried in and said, "The princess is awake, it's still early, why don't you sleep a little longer?" ?”

"Serve me to wash up, don't sleep anymore." Lingyao said, "Although I was seriously ill yesterday, it made me see clearly what kind of person Wu Bingning is."

Lingyao chatted with Yuqiao, looking at herself in the bronze mirror, while Yuqiao was combing her hair.

"What? Did the princess find anything?"

"Do you still remember that day when she was riding a horse? She said she went into the pouring rain to save a flower and fell down as a result?"

"Of course I remember, this servant only thinks this kind of behavior is very hypocritical, it's just a flower, if it's a true flower lover, why are the flowers and plants in her yard cleaned up by servants?"

"Imagine that if a flower is worthy of her pity, she will not hesitate to save it in the rain. You know that when I was in front of the Bingyu Tower yesterday, the rain was as heavy as a pillar, and she stood in front of the window watching coldly, and she didn't even lend me an umbrella. .”

"It's really hypocritical—Princess, what did you just say?!" Yuqiao suddenly said excitedly.

"What's the matter? I said, I got caught in the rain, and she didn't even lend me an umbrella." Although Ling Yao was puzzled, she still asked.

Yuqiao shook her head: "No, princess, if you think about it carefully, Wu Bingning really was 'standing' in front of the window and looking at you?"

She deliberately bit down on the word "look".

Lingyao immediately understood what Yuqiao was concerned about. After thinking about it carefully, the master and servant looked at each other, and Lingyao confirmed: "It is indeed standing, I am sure."

But Duan Xiuran clearly said that Wu Bingning's legs were disabled because of the Qiqiao Festival that day.

Everything is self-evident, and it happened that Wu Bingning's voice came from outside: "Sister Lingyao, do you have time today? I heard that a new storyteller has come to Hongrui Restaurant in recent days. It's very interesting. Sister Lingyao wants to go and see it together." See?"

I wanted to find out the truth, but in the end she came to the door herself!
Yuqiao and Lingyao looked at each other, walked to the door and said: "It's so early in the morning, the girl can have breakfast? I heard that the breakfast in Hongrui Restaurant is exquisite and delicious, plus the interesting thing that the cousin said Storyteller, why don't you go and see it with my princess?"

Yuqiao smiled and said, "I heard that the Jinyu Pavilion has rushed to make a batch of beautiful hairpins. If Miss Biao likes them, let's go and have a look together. It's okay to come back after lunch."

Sure enough, Wu Bingning's eyes lit up a little, and she hurriedly said: "Of course it's possible, but...it's not convenient for me to go out. Why don't sister Lingyao go to Hongrui Restaurant and wait for me first, how about I arrive later?"

Yuqiao simply responded, "Naturally."

Wu Bingning thanked her and went back to her yard happily. Yuqiao looked at her back and sneered, and reported to Lingyao when she went back.

"It's probably because I'm afraid that if something happens to me when I go out with her, I won't be able to pick it off cleanly." Lingyao said, "It's okay, she designed to harm me, why don't I want her to show her original shape?"
