The Evil Emperor's Favorite: The Sickly and Poisonous Concubine Goes Crazy

In the backyard of the Duke Zhenguo's Mansion, the Lan Ya Pavilion is exquisite and elegant, with a faint fragrance.

The golden charcoal in the room burned vigorously, isolating the cold outside. The warm room was filled with all kinds of famous paintings, ancient books, and rare items.

These were all found by the Duke and several young masters from various places for the young lady.

A maid dressed in pink came in from outside, warmed herself in front of the stove to get rid of the cold before going into the inner room, for fear of passing the cold to the sleeping girl.

"Yunqing, has the young lady woken up today?"

"No, it's already the third day, and the young lady has a high fever that won't go away. She finally recovered from the cold, but now it's back. I don't know when she'll wake up."

The maid named Yunqing in green had just fed medicine to the sleeping girl on the bed. She replied softly.

Looking at the pale girl on the ancient bed, he looked worried.

Two days ago, at the old lady's birthday party, the young lady suddenly slipped and fell into the water. She has been unconscious for two days and has not yet woken up.

It was deep winter, and the weather was freezing cold. When the young lady was rescued, she had fainted. That was fine, but after the young lady fell into the water, rumors were spreading in the palace that she wanted to marry Prince Ling, but the Duke disagreed, so she jumped into the lake to threaten him with death.

Before this, the young lady did like the talented Prince Ling, and had a conflict with the master and the lady because of this. But the young lady has always been calm and composed, so how could she do such a rude thing.

In the past few days, because of this incident, the entire Zhenguo Mansion was shrouded in a cold and gloomy mood. Everyone was on high alert, fearing that they would do something wrong and be punished.

"Ugh... No! Don't!"

Su Jingning suddenly sat up on the bed in shock, his body covered in cold sweat, his heart aching, and his head groggy from sleeping for too long.

"Miss, you are awake!"

Yun Ya came up to Su Jingning in surprise and said to Yun Qing,

"Go and get the court doctor. Tell him that the young lady has woken up. Ask him to come and see her."

"I'll go right away!" Yun Qing turned around and ran out with a happy look on his face.

"Miss, are you feeling unwell?" Yun Ya looked at the confused girl on the bed with concern.

"Yun Ya? Am I dead?" Su Jingning said to himself.

"Miss? What nonsense are you talking about? Are you confused due to the fever?" After saying that, he hurriedly touched Su Jingning's forehead.

The fever is gone!

"I'm not dead?" Su Jingning looked at her white and tender hands. No, her hands had become rough because she had been holding swords for too long in the past five years. How could they be so soft? These were obviously her hands when she was sixteen or seventeen years old!

Could it be that she was reborn!

"Yun Ya, what year is it now?" she asked hurriedly.

"It's been sixteen years since Long An! Miss, what's wrong with you?"

Long An Sixteen! She was reborn! God felt her unwillingness and hatred, and gave her another new life!

She went back to the fifth year before her death! Now she was only sixteen years old, and all the tragedies hadn't happened yet!

"Ning'er! Ning'er!" A gentle and worried voice and hurried footsteps came from outside the house.

Su Jingning paused when she heard the familiar voice. It was A Niang! She looked up at the person who came.

A beautiful woman wearing a gorgeous dress embroidered with light purple basil and with simple and elegant hair combed, walked towards her with an elegant temperament, and there was unconcealable worry in her beautiful eyes.

"Mother!" Su Jingning couldn't help but choke up.

"It's good that you woke up! It's good that you woke up! Are you feeling unwell?" Madam Su Jiang stared at her daughter closely, and the worry that had been hanging in the air for the past few days was finally put at ease.

"I'm sorry, mother." Su Jingning looked at her mother's worried face and red eyes. Thinking of all the wrong things she had done in her previous life and her mother who had died in front of her, she felt a pain in her heart.

She couldn't help but throw herself into her mother's arms, saying sorry over and over again, apologizing for her past life.

Mrs. Su hugged her daughter, feeling very distressed. Her daughter had not been in good health since she was a child, and this time she slipped and fell into the water in the cold winter. The cold that she had finally recovered from had recurred.

"It's okay! It's okay! Mother is here! If you really like Prince Ling so much, Mother will ask for him on your behalf. As long as our Ning'er likes it."

Mrs. Su listened to her daughter's choked voice saying sorry, and finally gave in. Forget it, if her daughter really likes it, then let her do it.

"No, mother, I don't like Prince Ling anymore! It was my daughter's fault before. I was wrong." Su Jingning withdrew from Madam Su's arms, tears still hanging in her beautiful almond eyes. Her expression was firm and unwavering.

Madam Su was puzzled as to why the person who had insisted on marrying Prince Ling a few days ago had suddenly changed.

"really!"

"Mother, after falling into the water this time, I have figured out many things. Prince Ling is not a good man." Su Jingning said to Madam Su with a serious look.

When Mrs. Su heard this, she felt a little pain in her heart. Her daughter really had thought it through.

"Good! Good girl! Mother will find a better husband for you in the future." Mrs. Su looked at her daughter with a moved face.

"My daughter wants to stay with her father and mother and won't go anywhere."

"Okay, as long as Ning'er likes it. You should thank Afu for being rescued from the water this time. If she hadn't called for help, you would have been in danger. You have always been smart, but why are you so stubborn about this matter and want to threaten her with your life?" Mrs. Su looked at her pale daughter and was glad that she was rescued in time.

"Threatening my life? What do you mean, mother?" Su Jingning pretended to be confused.

In her previous life, Su Ruofu plotted to make herself fall into the water at her grandmother's birthday party, and then spread rumors while she was unconscious, saying that she was craving for Prince Ling and threatened to die to ask her father to ask His Majesty for a marriage. After that, she was asked about her well-being every day in the name of Prince Ling, so she played along and pretended that she was really threatening to die to marry Prince Ling. But later, her father became even more angry and locked her up for two months. She also became a laughing stock in the capital because of this incident and lost face.

"Didn't you come up with the idea of ​​jumping into the lake because your father and I disagree with you marrying Prince Ling? Didn't you want your father to agree that you and Prince Ling should be together?" Madam Su asked curiously.

"I have a cold, how could I risk my life to jump into the Chenxin Lake which is covered with a thin layer of ice for a man. I fell off the bridge accidentally. Where did you hear such ridiculous words, mother?" Su Jingning's voice was soft and a little hoarse.

"It's strange, the bridge deck was as slippery as if it was greased that day, and my daughter slipped and fell down." Su Jingning frowned, recalling the details of the sunset.

"Now that you mention it, I also find it strange. Everyone was in the banquet hall that day and there was no one in the garden. I also suppressed the fact that you fell into the lake, so how could outsiders know about it? Where did the news come from?" Madam Su had been panicking for the past two days because her daughter was in a coma. Now that she thought about it carefully, she always felt that there was something fishy about the matter, as if someone deliberately wanted to make the matter of Ning'er and Prince Ling known to everyone.

Thinking of this, Mrs. Su's face darkened, as if she understood something.

"Don't worry, Ning'er. Mother will investigate this matter thoroughly. I want to find out who wants to harm my daughter." Mrs. Su touched Su Jingning's head, her expression gloomy and her heart filled with anger.

Madam Su stayed with Su Jingning until the court doctor came and examined her. Only after he confirmed that she would be fine as long as she rested well did she feel relieved. She gave Su Jingning many instructions before leaving.

After she left, Su Jingning dismissed everyone and slowly sorted out his confused thoughts by himself.

Looking at the young girl in the bronze mirror, with a fair face, delicate and bright features, and a refined and elegant temperament, a bloodthirsty smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

She is only sixteen years old now, and everything that happened in her previous life has not yet begun!

Su Ruofu! Mu Ling! Since God has given me a chance to start over again, I will definitely cherish this opportunity and play with you. I will make you go to hell step by step, and you will never be able to turn over!

I will take back from you a thousand times the pain you made me endure in my last life!

"Miss Third, you're here." Yun Qing's voice came from outside the house.

"Well, I came to see my second sister. I heard that she woke up?" Su Ruofu was wearing a lake blue fairy dress, with beautiful long hair and a pretty face. She looked very worried when she talked about Su Jingning.

"Miss Third, please wait a moment. The young lady is resting and has instructed that no one should disturb her." Yun Qingwan rejected Su Ruofu.

"Yunqing, let her in." A weak and soft voice came from the inner room.

"Yes, Miss San, please."

Su Ruofu lifted the door curtain and walked in.

"Sister, you finally woke up? I was so anxious these past few days. You don't know how worried His Royal Highness Prince Ling is about you!"

Looking at Su Ruofu, who had a beautiful face and a very worried expression, her acting was really great.

In the previous life, he was deceived by her little by little, and treated her as a close sister, but who knew that the person in front of him was a venomous snake that could not be tamed. Su Jingning suppressed his hatred, fearing that he would not be able to help but tear her to pieces.

Su Ruofu was startled by the way Su Jingning looked at her. His dark and cold eyes were filled with bloodthirsty murderous intent. But when she looked at him again, he had returned to his usual gentle and cold self. Was she seeing things?

"Sister, it's great that you're awake now. His Royal Highness Prince Ling has lost a lot of weight these days because he was worried about you being in a coma. I don't know how heartbroken you must be when you see this."

Su Jingning watched her talking to herself without replying until he heard very light footsteps outside the house, then he replied indifferently:

"I'm sorry for making you worry. I've figured it out. My father didn't let me marry Prince Ling for his own reasons. Don't mention him in front of me in the future." Her voice was soft, with a hint of alienation.

"Ah, sister, why? Prince Ling is such a good man, and he treats you so well. You have been in a coma for so many days, and father is very worried. If you beg father again, he will definitely agree to ask for this marriage on your behalf."

"Also, the day after tomorrow will be the Imperial Capital Hanshu Banquet. We will go together then. His Royal Highness Prince Ling specifically asked me to take you with him!" Su Ruofu looked sincere as she continued to brainwash Su Jingning. However, the calculation in her eyes could not be concealed no matter how hard she tried.

Su Jingning sneered in her heart. In her previous life, she believed her words and dragged her sick body to beg her father, threatening to die. Her father was angry and anxious, but still did not agree to her marrying Prince Ling. Later, she went to the Hanshu Banquet before she recovered from her illness and was discovered meeting Prince Ling, which brought shame to the Zhenguo Mansion. This also broke the relationship between her and her family, and things got out of control from then on.

"Sister seems to be very familiar with Prince Ling?" Su Jingning did not answer her, but raised his eyebrows slightly, staring at her with his dark and cold eyes, and asked in confusion.

"Sister..." She wanted to continue persuading but was interrupted.

"Sister, are you awake? Afu is here too." A clear and gentle voice came. Su Jingchen, dressed in a blue-gray brocade robe, looked gentle and elegant, tall and slender. He opened the curtain and walked in. He looked at Su Ruofu, who had a nervous expression, with sharp eyes and a smile.

Behind him stood the Duke of Zhenguo, who was dressed in a purple official robe, with handsome and resolute features. Having been in a high position for many years, he had an aura that made people feel intimidated without even getting angry.

"Father, elder brother." Su Jingning called softly. As the New Year was approaching, father and elder brother returned to Beijing to report on their work and celebrate grandmother's birthday. Unexpectedly, a scandal broke out in the family because of him.

"Dad, big brother, are you here to see my second sister?" Su Ruofu suppressed the nervousness in her heart and asked with a smile. She thought that they would not hear what she just said.

"Yes, I heard that Ning'er woke up, so my father and I came to see her." Su Jingchen said with a smile.

Su Ruofu looked at the court robes that the Duke of Zhenguo had not had time to change out of, and couldn't help feeling jealous. Her father was really worried about Su Jingning.

"Then I won't disturb my sister. Dad, big brother and second sister can chat slowly." Seeing that her big brother and dad looked the same as usual, she breathed a sigh of relief.

"Okay, the road is slippery in the snow, be careful on your way back and don't fall." The Duke of Zhenguo said kindly and concernedly.

"Well, second sister, I'll leave first." Su Ruofu bowed to the three people and left.

Su Jingchen looked at her leaving back, his expression seemed to darken.

"You! You're finally awake. You have no idea how worried your family has been about you these days. You're always so willful. You must have suffered this time." Su Jingchen looked at the pale girl and said lovingly.

"I'm sorry for making you worry, brother."

Su Jingning lowered her head and did not dare to look at the Duke of Zhenguo, fearing that if she raised her head they would notice her red eyes.

"The one you should say sorry to is not me, but Dad."

Su Jingchen looked at his sister with a complicated expression. It would be fine for his sister to like anyone else, but she had to like Prince Ling. Prince Ling looked cowardly and incompetent, and had accomplished nothing. But he was born in an imperial family and had survived in the turbulent and treacherous palace until now. How could he be a simple person? The royal family was complicated, and he didn't want his sister to be involved.

Su Jingning was silent as she pouted her head, which gave the Duke of Zhenguo a headache. He thought she was still in a bad mood. He didn't know who she resembled with this stubborn character since childhood.

Seeing my daughter, who I have pampered since childhood, treating herself so badly for a man, I feel heartbroken and helpless.

"Hey... Prince Ling. Do you know why your father doesn't agree with you and Prince Ling being together? Although Prince Ling is not valued by His Majesty, he is the emperor's son after all. My Su family is in charge of hundreds of thousands of soldiers in the Great Zhou, and your father only has you as his legitimate daughter. If you are with him, do you know how big the involvement behind it is? If you are not careful, it will bring disaster to the whole family..." The Duke of Zhenguo wanted to persuade his daughter earnestly, but was interrupted by Su Jingning's action.

Su Jingning propped himself up, knelt on the bed in front of the Duke of Zhenguo, and bowed to him.

"Father, I'm sorry for making you worry. It's Ning'er who is ignorant. I don't like Prince Ling anymore. From now on, I will never mention this matter again."

This action scared the Duke of Zhenguo, and he looked at Su Jingchen with suspicion in his eyes.

He walked forward to help Su Jingning up, held his daughter's shoulders, and looked at her seriously.

"Really?"

"Well, my daughter doesn't like him anymore." Su Jingning replied pretending to be sad.

"Okay! If you don't like him, then don't like him. There are many good men in the world. Prince Ling is not worthy of my precious daughter." The Duke of Zhenguo didn't dare to ask more, for fear that his daughter would change her mind again.

Well, I guess my father is the only one in this world who dares to say that the emperor’s son is not worthy of him.

"Dad, my sister just woke up. Let her have a good rest first." Seeing his sister's tired face, Su Jingchen didn't want to disturb her anymore and pulled his father to leave.

"Well, Ningning, have a good rest. You have to take care of your body first before anything else."

"Okay." Su Jingning watched the two of them leave before lying down again. She was really tired. Everything about her body was fine except that it was too weak. She had a cold since she was a child and it couldn't be cured.

She did not mention what happened just now because she knew that her elder brother had become suspicious of Su Ruofu. Her elder brother looked gentle and friendly, but no one knew that the Prince of Zhenguo was a man who hid a knife behind his smile and was extremely protective of his only sister.

Su Ruofu, don't you always pretend to be well-educated, well-behaved and kind? Then I will tear your disguise apart bit by bit.
