The two sat in the pavilion and chatted for a while.

Wan Siyu also didn't expect that one day he would be able to chat calmly with Shen Ruoxi, and the more they talked, the more congenial they became.

She thought that if Su Tianling hadn't caused what happened, maybe she would have become friends with Shen Ruoxi very early.

After sitting in the pavilion for more than an hour, Wan Siyu was called away by Wan Gan.

Shen Ruoxi sent her to the door.

Wan Siyu was in a good mood.

"Shen Ruoxi, if you get bored in the future, you can come to see me in Shangshu Mansion. My father has collected a lot of interesting things. If you like them, pick out a few."

"I will definitely go when I have time."

After Shen Ruoxi said goodbye to her, she was about to return home when she suddenly saw a sneaky figure passing behind a pillar.

Leng Shuang whispered.

"Miss, this is Chen Shuangshuang. She has been secretly watching you for a long time today."

"Don't worry about her. If she behaves abnormally, just report it to me."

"Yes."

……

backyard.

Chen Shuangshuang rushed into his room angrily and knocked over all the cups on the table.

He Rong heard the sound and rushed over. When she saw the mess in the house, she slapped her thigh.

"Shuangshuang, what are you doing!?"

"Mom, didn't you see? There's a lot of people outside. They're all here to congratulate Shen Ruoxi on becoming Princess Ling!"

She stamped her feet in anger.

"Now that we are divorced, she will stay in the General's Mansion honestly and just be an old girl. She even goes out to hook up with other people! How long has it been since she was married to His Highness Ling Wang again?"

"Okay, if you feel unhappy, just yell a few words, why are you throwing things? Everything is broken, who will buy more for you!"

Hearing this, Chen Shuangshuang became even more angry.

Originally, He Rong and she had the final say on matters in the general's palace. Since Shen Ruoxi came back, she first took away the power from them, and then sent them to the courtyard where people lived.

After all, they were relatives of the General's Mansion, and they were kind to Shen Tianrong, so he treated them like this!

There is simply no sense of gratitude!

"Mom, I can't survive this useless life! Originally, I wanted to marry King Ling, but now that Shen Ruoxi is engaged to King Ling, what should I do?"

He Rong also frowned.

"I don't know what His Highness Ling Wang sees in her. A second-hand woman has long since lost her virginity. Shuangshuang, you are still a young lady, but... this matter is not completely hopeless."

"Mom, what do you mean?"

"My mother has been in Kyoto for so many years, and she has figured out the temperament of these officials and nobles. What they care about most is their face. Mother has a way to help you become the Ling King."

After saying that, He Rong leaned into Chen Shuangshuang's ear and whispered to her for a while.

Chen Shuangshuang hesitated.

"Mom, if you do this...will you be beheaded?"

"As the saying goes, wealth can be gained through danger. Since you want to be Ling Wang's woman, you have to take some risks. Besides, we are relatives of the General's Mansion. When the time comes, let the General say a few good words to us, won't you? What’s the big problem!”

Hearing this, Chen Shuangshuang's eyes also lit up.

"Okay, mother, let's find an opportunity and do what you say!"

*

At the same time, the atmosphere in Murong Yu's mansion was very bad.

Ning Lanxue has been dying and has been sleeping since she was carried back yesterday. .

Murong Yu found a new doctor and kept going in and out of Lanyuan, bringing out basin after basin of blood.

Ning Lanxue lay on the couch, her face bloodless.

His eyes were closed and his breathing was weak.

Murong Yu frowned and asked.

"Why aren't you awake yet?"

"Your Highness, Miss Ning just had a miscarriage and suffered such a heavy blow. It is a miracle that she has survived now. But even after she recovers, the root of the disease will remain in her body. I'm afraid..."

"I'm afraid what?"

The doctor hesitated for a moment: "I'm afraid I won't be able to have children again."

Murong Yu was stunned for a moment, then quickly calmed down.

He looked at Ning Lanxue's neck.

There is a triangular imprint there.

It was after she fainted after being hit with thirty boards that she was scalded.

Emperor Renjing ordered Ning Lanxue to be demoted to a slave, and she was naturally branded as a slave.

Now she is not even a commoner. Even if she can have children, she will never have children with him in the future.

"I understand, you should treat her injuries first."

Murong Yu gave instructions.

The doctor said slowly.

"Your Highness, the common people have tried their best. When she wakes up next depends on Miss Ning's own destiny."

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly heard a faint murmur.

"water……"

Ning Lanxue lay on the bed and spoke intermittently.

"Water...give me water..."

The maid next to her hurried over, supported Ning Lanxue, and fed her some warm water with a spoon.

Ning Lanxue drank a little hastily and accidentally choked.

She coughed violently.

Then he slowly opened his eyes.

Seeing the maid in front of her, she frowned in dissatisfaction and was about to scold her when she suddenly caught a glimpse of Murong Yu next to her.

"Your Highness..."

Ning Lanxue's expression calmed down and she immediately showed a pitiful and weak look.

Her eyes were red and tears fell easily.

"Your Highness, my body hurts so much..."

However, faced with her show of weakness, Murong Yu did not embrace her as before.

Instead, he stood there, looking at her with his hands behind his hands.

His eyes were terrifyingly calm.

Ning Lanxue was flustered by his look.

"Your Highness, you...why are you looking at me like this?"

"Lan Xue, do you still remember what happened yesterday?"

"Of course I remember, Your Highness, those words... are not entirely true. I do have a temper, but I am definitely not that vicious person. I..."

"Are you still lying? Do you really think of me as a brainless idiot!" A trace of anger flashed in Murong Yu's eyes, "Lan Xue, don't waste away the last bit of my goodwill towards you!"

Ning Lanxue paused for a moment, feeling a little frightened.

After a while, she bit her lip and sobbed softly.

"I was really spoiled and had a bad temper while I was in the house. Now I know I was wrong."

"What about Shen Ruoxi?"

Murong Yu asked: "Every time you had a dispute with Shen Ruoxi before, were you really innocent, or as Ding Lexian said, did you deliberately design it to make my relationship with Shen Ruoxi even worse?"

Hearing this, Ning Lanxue stopped crying.

She lay on the soft couch, her eyes flashing slightly, and she said nothing.

After a long while, he said slowly.

"I am sincere to Your Highness, and everything I do is because I love Your Highness so much."

This sentence is considered acquiescence.

Murong Yu looked startled.

The position of the heart also suddenly tightened.

In fact, when he waited for Ning Lan to wake up today, what he wanted to ask the most was this.

Now that the answer was confirmed, he had mixed feelings in his heart.

Countless emotions came to my mind, and the last thing that stayed in my mind was Shen Ruoxi's stunning face.

Murong Yu clenched his fingers and looked at Ning Lanxue on the couch. An unprecedented boredom suddenly came to his heart.

He turned and left.
