The palace dungeon.

"Didn't you promise to let me see the Second Miss? Are you going to go back on your word?"

With iron chains hanging from his hands, Ji Ruyang raised his head and pulled the chain from his neck. His eyes were creepy in the darkness.

Xuan Ming frowned outside the prison door:

"It's not that we went back on our word, it's that the second young lady suddenly fainted."

"Fainted, why?"

Sensing the anxiety that Ji Ruyang accidentally revealed, Xuan Ming narrowed his eyes and examined him secretly.

"The Second Miss has always been weak, so it's normal for her to faint."

"Really? But my conditions won't change."

Ji Ruyang noticed Xuan Ming's scrutiny and closed his eyes, as if refusing to communicate.

……

The next morning, Lu Ningshuang woke up.

He had breakfast with Lu Yingxue, left the portion he had touched to Fu Nanjia, and then set off for the palace.

"Aren't you going to take a break?"

In the carriage, Lu Yingxue expressed her concern from the bottom of her heart.

Lu Ningshuang shook her head, hugged Lu Yingxue's neck and nestled in her arms, wrapped in a white fox fur cloak that she only wore in winter, and her breathing was a little heavy.

"The more I rest, the more uncomfortable I feel. While my condition is not too serious, I should finish what I promised my sister first. Only then can I lie down in peace."

"Okay," Lu Yingxue leaned over to kiss the top of the girl's head, and with her eyes curved, she thanked her softly, "Thank you for your hard work, Xiaoshuang."

She hugged the person tightly, fearing that he would fall and that he would feel uncomfortable, so she kept telling Liang Ye, who was driving, to drive slower and more steadily.

Both of her hands were occupied, one hand was to hold the girl's back, and the other hand was to help her press the hot water bottle in front of her belly.

because--

"Sister, press harder, it hurts..."

"Okay, I'll press it tighter, you close your eyes first, I'll call you when we're there."

"Ah."

The carriage was moving smoothly, and Lu Yingxue sat with her back against the carriage, like a sculpture.

She held the girl in her arms tightly, their body temperatures blending together, as if they were back in the mother's womb.

She whispered silently:

You are right, Xiaoshuang, we are the closest people in the world. As long as you always treat me as your sister, I will protect you for the rest of my life.

……

The carriage moved very slowly, and it took nearly an hour to travel a distance that should take half an hour.

"You hold it first."

Lu Yingxue handed the sleeping Lu Ningshuang in her arms to Fuling who was riding with her, and got off the carriage first.

Standing next to the car, he bent down slightly, turned his head and called to Fuling:

"Help your young lady onto my back."

With Xiaoshuang’s current physical condition, she can’t even walk a few steps, so it would be better to just carry her in.

Lu Shen, who was accompanying the carriage, came over and said, "Master, can I do it for you?"

Seeing him reaching out to take the girl that Fuling was holding, Lu Yingxue subconsciously frowned and scolded:

"Back off! Xiao Shuang doesn't like strangers touching her!"

Lu Shen was stunned and lowered his head and said:

"I know my mistake."

He retreated back into the team.

Lu Shen is one of Lu Yingxue's confidants. Although his surname is Lu, he actually has little to do with the Lu family.

The name Lu Shen was given to him by Lu Yingxue because she saw that he was serious in his work, loyal and sincere.

Lu Yingxue would not reveal her true thoughts in front of her subordinates, so it was normal for them not to know how much she valued Lu Ningshuang.

Fuling imitated Baizhi's tone and cursed contemptuously:

"You think you can touch my lady?!"

To boost her momentum, she spat fiercely.

Lu Shen, who was standing at the head of the team, wiped his face silently.

I understand, auntie!

"Okay, help her up quickly. What are these people doing at the door?"

"Here it comes. Be careful. Be careful. Hold your back steady."

Fuling ignored the horse stool that Liang Ye put down, jumped off the carriage lightly, and protected Lu Ningshuang as she entered the palace.

Lu Yingxue walked steadily, looking back from time to time to check on her sister's situation.

She was really thin and light, and she weighed very little when she was carried on his back, with her arms and legs swaying slightly in the luxurious satin.

Thinking back to when she was in the princess's mansion, she carried Xiao Churan like a dead pig, and walking those few steps almost exhausted her to death!

"elder sister……"

The soft syllables floated into my ears, making my heart sway.

"woke up?"

Lu Yingxue couldn't help but lower her voice, and those who passed by and were about to salute were driven away by her eyes.

I’m carrying my sister on my back, please don’t disturb me!

Lu Ningshuang rubbed her neck habitually and yawned. Ruifeng's eyes overflowed with physiological tears, like the rippling lake water in spring.

Her voice was a little hoarse, she bit Lu Yingxue's earlobe and said with a smile:

"Sister, did you take the initiative to carry me on your back because you like me?"

Playing with people's feelings is the cornerstone of her way of finding joy in suffering.

Lu Yingxue looked at the road under her feet, which had unknowingly become a bumpy road in life.

She gave a rare candid answer:

"You're my sister, of course I like you."

The heroine actually likes me, the villain?

interesting!

Lu Ningshuang became interested and kissed Lu Yingxue's face and neck while asking questions.

"Do you like other sisters?"

"They are not related to me by blood, why would I like them for no reason?"

"So sister only likes me because of our blood relationship?"

"Yes, but not entirely."

"As long as this body is there, no matter who is inside, I will like him? It turns out that my love is so superficial..."

Lu Ningshuang pretended to cry, but even though it was fake crying, tears flowed from her fragile body due to her emotional fluctuations.

Fuling was beside her and was extremely anxious. "Miss, the doctor said that my young lady cannot be overly happy or sad. Please comfort her!"

Lu Yingxue carried her on her back and walked slowly forward, patiently explaining:

"It was blood that brought us together, and it was our subsequent interactions that made me start to like you. That later time was after you woke up from falling into the water, or maybe later.

It was you who pitifully called me sister, it was you who cried and asked me to love you, it was you who said we were the closest people in the world, it was you who spit blood and lay on my back, telling me to "run fast and don't look back"...

Because those little bits and pieces merged into a big river, which allowed me to let go of the hatred in my heart and like the whole you, not just the you after the age of sixteen and seven months. "

As expected of the heroine, what she said was well-reasoned and touching, leaving her no chance to cause any trouble.

Forget it, let’s deal with Eunuch Ji’s visit first.

When they reached the dungeon entrance, Lu Yingxue reminded worriedly:

"Go in right away. If you're scared, close your eyes and cover your ears. Ji Ruyang is in danger and is imprisoned in the deepest part of the dungeon."

Lu Ningshuang played with her hair and pretended to be strong and replied:

"It's okay, I'm not afraid of anything as long as I'm here!"

Walking into the dungeon, what catches your eye is the dark and damp floor, and the black cloth on both sides.

Xuan Ming ran over to greet him and said to Lu Yingxue:

"Miss, I have done everything according to your instructions, but time is a bit tight, so this is all I can do."

As they walked along, they could not see any criminals. Lu Yingxue nodded and praised:

"well done."

They went straight to the innermost part, where chairs and screens had been placed outside the cell.

With the help of Fuling, Lu Yingxue carefully placed Lu Ningshuang on the chair, and took the hand warmer that Xuanming had prepared in advance and put it in her arms.

"Ji Ruyang, the person you want to see is here, go ahead!"
