Immortal of Quick Transmigration, why are you blackened again?

Chapter 25
Back in the mansion, Duan Xiuran did not push Lingyao to her yard, but brought her to his study.

Lingyao was really confused now and said, "If you have to do business, wouldn't I disturb you if I'm around you?"

"It doesn't matter." While speaking, Duan Xiuran placed her by the window, and told her to see the small lake with cicadas singing and carp outside, "You have to be within my line of sight, so that I can feel at ease."

This inexplicably made people feel blushing, Lingyao ignored him, and fiddled with the small objects on the table by herself.

Duan Xiuran smiled softly, bent down slowly, and whispered "Good boy" in her ear. It was originally an act of mutual affection, but to Lingyao's ears, it was no less than a muffled thunder exploding in her ear , She was not lightly surprised.

"The study room has always been an important place, how can people look at it at will!" Lingyao muttered, not knowing what he meant.

Unexpectedly, Duan Xiuran heard it, and he smiled and said: "It's okay, it's just that there is nothing new, Yao'er shouldn't find it boring."

Lingyao ignored him, but played with small things in his study.But this study is really dull and boring. She glanced at it by chance and saw a locked drawer.

"You put the confidential documents in such a lock?" Lingyao said suddenly, "Just this lock, any man with some strength can pull it open. It's better not to lock it, so as not to raise suspicions."

Duan Xiuran put down the pen he was writing on, walked over and took a look at the drawer. He was stunned for a while and then said: "Actually, there are no confidential documents in it, nor anything about the imperial court. There is only a bracelet in it."

"Bracelet?" Lingyao was a little incredulous, "You are a grown man, why do you collect bracelets?"

"It's not a collection either." Duan Xiuran pulled hard, and the decorative lock was unlocked. He opened the drawer, and inside was a finely crafted brocade box inlaid with gold edging.

Duan Xiuran took out the brocade box: "Put it aside, it's only because the grace of saving my life is greater than the sky. When I was eight years old, Bing Ning desperately picked me up from the frozen lake, and I saved my life. Duan Xiuran is what I am today. Afterwards, I found out the pain she suffered from being dependent on others, and I also understood her pursuit of glory, so I complied with her request and married her."

"But as you said, I am marrying not only for myself, but also for the Marquis of Pingyang. Due to many obstructions, this matter has been put aside again and again until His Majesty grants you and me a marriage."

It turned out that it was a life-saving grace, or so long ago, it seems that Wu Bingning is still a good person, at least helped her save Duan Xiuran's life, otherwise, her mission might have ended before it even started.

"This golden jade bracelet belonged to Grandma Bingning. She rescued me that day, and I held on to it because I was afraid, so she gave it to me." Duan Xiuran said, "Now that I think about it, this golden jade bracelet is a gift of friendship. , is also a shackle."

He seemed to sigh: "For so many years, no matter whether she is greedy for vanity or doing all kinds of stupid things, even if she plays tricks and schemes, I have given her a layer of tolerance, just because of kindness, I can't go against my own oath."

He suddenly looked at her: "I even said bad words to you because of this ridiculous oath. Now that I think about it, I'm really naive."

Lingyao didn't answer this, but said: "Can I take a look at that golden jade bracelet? Just one look?"

Duan Xiuran shook his head: "I have promised her that I cannot show it to others."

Lingyao glanced at the brocade box, and simply said: "Okay, I won't make things difficult for you, just put it away."

The box was put back in the drawer, but it was not locked again.

Lingyao returned to her yard after dinner, looked at her ankles which had been wrapped in gauze several times, and suddenly thought of something, said: "Yuqiao!"

Hearing the sound, Yuqiao rushed over and said, "Princess, what's the matter?"

"Let's go, let's go to the Bingyu Building." Lingyao was about to get up, but Yuqiao stopped her and said, "Princess, it's late at night, why should we go and see that annoying person? Why don't we go earlier? Rest, so that you can walk at sunset as soon as possible!"

"No, Duan Xiuran must have something to hide from me." Ling Yao said, "Let's go secretly, so we don't get caught."

Yuqiao couldn't resist her, so he had to say: "Okay, I will dress you right now."

The Bingyu Tower is no longer in the same condition as before. It is just unattended. The flowers and plants in the yard are growing randomly, as if it is deserted. It no longer has that delicate look.

Xu Shi noticed that someone had come in, so Shen Xin hurried out to visit, and when he saw it was Lingyao, he hurriedly saluted: "Servant, please see the princess."

"Where's your master?" Ling Yao asked.

"Back to the princess, it's late at night, and the cousin has already fallen asleep."

"Sleeping?" Lingyao sighed, and just as she was about to leave, she heard Wu Bingning's slightly crazy voice coming from her room: "Zhao Lingyao, you also have today!"

Lingyao was taken aback, looked at Shen Xin, and said in a bad tone, "Didn't you say that Wu Bingning has already rested?"

"Just go to any medical clinic on the street and ask if your feet can still walk! You obviously have everything, but you still want to rob someone else's only one. No wonder, God punished you like this!"

"Shut up!" Yuqiao yelled, "You must be insane. How dare you speak so rudely? Believe it or not, the few words you just said are enough to kill you many times!"

Yuqiao bent down and said softly, "Princess, shall we go back?"

"I can know that Dr. Zhang gave you herbal knee pads, so I know Duan Xiuran is lying to you! Zhao Lingyao, the sky net is restored, and it's not leaking, hahaha!"

Wu Bingning's voice was almost crazy, but Lingyao felt that what she said was true.

"Princess, Cousin girl has made a mistake and has been emotionally unstable for the past few days. The prince locked her in this Bingyu Tower for self-reflection, but she is actually resentful. Please don't take it to heart, princess! "Shen Xin hurriedly knelt down, explaining a little hastily.

"It's okay, Yuqiao, let's go."

"Yes." Seeing that Lingyao had no other expression, Yuqiao replied, and hurriedly pushed Lingyao back.

On the second day, Duan Xiuran felt relieved and went to the court with peace of mind, while Li Taiyi came for a follow-up consultation.

"Doctor Li, are my feet okay?" Lingyao asked tentatively.

Seeing that Imperial Physician Li was silent, she continued: "They all hide it from me, but they can hide it for a while, how can they hide it for a lifetime? I have roughly guessed it a long time ago, and Imperial Physician Li just give me a guess." In other words, instead of letting me hold impossible hopes, it is better to let me accept the reality, if there is a turning point in the future, it may still be a surprise."

Doctor Li lowered his head, thought for a moment, and then said: "The princess is the princess of the Tian family, she should be resilient, and she cannot be easily knocked down. The princess's foot is completely broken, and I am afraid it will be difficult to connect... ..." He didn't pause, and hurriedly continued: "But if the princess is willing to do rehabilitation every day, maybe she can grow up, it's just a matter of time."

"Dare to ask Dr. Li, how long will it take to heal?"

"If you practice martial arts since childhood, it may be a year or two."

"What if not?"

"If it wasn't for..." Imperial Physician Li hesitated for a moment, but finally did not say anything.

"That's all, don't embarrass the imperial physician." Lingyao smiled, "Yuqiao, send imperial physician Li out."

"Yes." Yuqiao just stood beside her sweating all the time, and seeing that there was nothing unusual about her, she led Imperial Physician Li out with peace of mind.

"Congratulations to the host!" Erqi's voice sounded in her mind, "There are still seven days until the capture target Duan Xiuran's 25th birthday, and the host should think of a way to leave this world in advance."

"Didn't you take me away?" Ling Yao asked.

"No, host." Erqi patiently explained, "After the task is completed, the host can stay in this world for up to seven days. If you want more, you need to spend points to redeem it. If the host cannot leave the world with a legitimate reason, then The mission was declared a failure."

"Just cause?"

"That's right. Because the host is a part of this world, everyone in this world who comes into contact with the host has memories of you to varying degrees. If you disappear out of thin air, it may cause panic in the world and lead to chaos in the world order, so the host The main thing is to give yourself a legitimate reason to escape from everyone’s sight, such as death.”

"It's not too difficult." Ling Yao looked at her ankle and murmured.

On the second day Lingyao invited the decree to enter the palace, she and Ruidi hadn't seen each other for a few days, but somehow felt that he seemed a little older.

Emperor Rui didn't ask about her legs and feet, presumably Duan Xiuran had already reported it, and then took Lingyao directly to Concubine Hui's palace.

The palace is still prosperous, and the maids and eunuchs clean it every day. It is as clean as ever, as if it has not experienced the washing of years.As soon as you entered the main hall, you could feel the coldness, which was unbelievable in this hot summer, but when you got closer, you could see a crystal coffin with a large piece of ice under it.

"Mother Concubine..." Lingyao was taken aback for a moment, Ruidi waved his hand to make the maids retreat, and he pushed Lingyao in.

"Hui'er, Yao'er has come to see you." Emperor Rui said softly, fearing that he would wake up the sleeping person.

"She left simply, leaving only a letter to our poor father and daughter, in which she wrote all her regrets, saying that she had no face to see me again... Since ancient times, during the changes of dynasties, thousands of people have been born. Emperor, which wise king is obsessed with the love between children? She is so smart all her life, but she is also stupid about the word love. It is really annoying..."

Ruidi spoke slowly, as if he was narrating a lingering story in a storybook. Although he was emotional, he was not sad, but he paused for a moment, and his voice was extremely sad, like the sound of the last dead leaf falling from a branch in late autumn. Inaudible but sad as a mountain: "But...how could I not forgive her..."

Lingyao turned her head, and the corners of the eyes of that iron-blooded emperor became moist. He looked at the sleeping person in the crystal coffin with complicated eyes.

"Now that you have met Yao'er, I will announce your death to the world." He said softly to Concubine Hui, "It's just that you can't be buried with me. This is my punishment for leaving you without saying goodbye."

He has Concubine Hui in his heart, so he will also have resentment. He hates her even more ruthlessly than an emperor, leaving as soon as she says, leaving behind her lover and children, family and glory.

It was as if he and the whole world were unimportant to her.
