Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace: Jia Ling's Double Rebirth, Creates a Great Success

After finishing the wedding at the Wei Mansion, Yan Wan thought that it was time to discuss the marriage for Lan Cui and Zhao Jiuxiao. After all, the big house bought for them outside the palace had already been decorated.

But in the past few days, she found that Lan Cui seemed a little absent-minded.

She was distracted when doing things, spoke incoherently, and was listless all day long. Even Lan Cui skipped her monthly date with Zhao Jiuxiao.

Yan Wan saw it and was worried. One day, she sent everyone away and asked Lan Cui in detail.

Lan Cui was reluctant to say anything at first, and only said that she would no longer associate with Zhao Jiuxiao, let alone marry her.

Yanwan looked at Lan Cui, and it was clear that she still had Zhao Jiuxiao in her heart. When she said she would not marry, there were tears in her eyes.

She slammed the table, her eyes already showing murderous intent: "Lan Cui, everything has a reason. Did Zhao Jiuxiao betray you? Tell me, I will make him pay the price."

Seeing that Yanwan was anxious, Lan Cui was afraid that she had a miscarriage, so she quickly told her the truth.

It turned out that after Lan Cui returned to the palace, she learned that it was Zhao Jiuxiao who helped Ling Yunche join the southern tour team.

She knew that Ling Yunche had evil intentions and coveted their Empress Consort Ling, who was also the person recommended by Concubine Xian. Concubine Xian had spoken rudely to their master many times, so it was not an exaggeration to say that she was an enemy.

She wanted to question Zhao Jiuxiao why he was helping this useless guy, but then she thought that they hadn't gotten married yet and it was not legal and proper, so asking would only add to her troubles, so it was better to end it there.

Lan Cui had a pretty good relationship with Zhao Jiuxiao before. The friendship that had grown up between them was naturally not so easy to give up.

It’s okay when I can’t see each other, but when I’m busy I don’t think about it anymore.

But in recent days, for the sake of Lord Zuolu's marriage, Lan Cui often went out of the palace with a sign, and met Zhao Jiuxiao every time she went there.

The two looked at each other from a distance, and could feel each other's reluctance to leave.

But Zhao Jiuxiao didn't come over to ask, but no matter how late Lan Cui returned to the palace, she could always see him patrolling with a lantern at the palace gate.

He followed not far behind Lan Cui and accompanied her to the official road. Only when Lan Cui was about to reach Yongshou Palace did Zhao Jiuxiao turn around and leave.

As a result, Lan Cui felt a little uncomfortable.

After listening to this, Yan Wan sighed. She didn't expect that the root of the matter was actually related to her. She asked Lan Cui to sit down, touched Lan Cui's hand and said:

"Lan Cui, I'm very happy that you protect me like this, but you can't torture yourself. I also know Zhao Jiuxiao. He's not a bad person, but he's a little confused sometimes."

Yan Wan tapped the table lightly with her other hand: "I will arrange for you to meet and talk it out. Let him know why you ignored him. Let's see his attitude and then we can make plans."

On this day, Zhao Jiuxiao, who was on patrol, was invited to Yongshou Palace by Wang Chan.

Wang Chan was surprised to find that the once brave and burly guard Zhao was actually showing signs of weight loss, and even his bearded face had become somewhat delicate.

When Zhao Jiuxiao heard the news that he was summoned to Yongshou Palace, he felt happy and scared. After returning from the southern tour, he felt that Lan Cui was deliberately distancing herself from him.

He thought about it and realized that Lan Cui was now the head maid serving Empress Ling Fei. Empress Ling Fei had always been very good to her and might have arranged a better marriage for her.

My family is not well off, and I have not been promoted in all these years. I am really not worthy of Lan Cui.

It seems that Lan Cui is embarrassed to break up with him, so why not let them fade away slowly? As long as Lan Cui is doing well, he will be happy.

So these days, he didn't dare to come to see Lan Cui.

But he overestimated his self-control, and his longing for Lan Cui grew wildly in his heart like a willow branch after the first spring rain.

When Zhao Jiuxiao followed Wang Chan to the gate of Yongshou Palace, he suddenly felt more timid and uncomfortable.

Wang Chan took Zhao Jiuxiao to a side hall to wait. With a creak, the hall door opened, and his Lan Cui came dancing in along with the sunlight.

Today, Lan Cui wore a light green palace dress, which made her face look beautiful. Zhao Jiuxiao saw that Lan Cui was also wearing a pair of hibiscus earrings that he had once given her.

Zhao Jiuxiao couldn't help but feel his eyes well up. Lan Cui was willing to wear the things he gave her. Did it mean that Lan Cui was also thinking about him?

Lan Cui saw Zhao Jiuxiao staring at her infatuatedly, her face became hot, and she said:

"Guard Zhao, please take a seat."

The two sat opposite each other at a round table. On the table was hot tea and a fruit plate that Chunchan had prepared long ago, but neither of them was in the mood to eat.

Lan Cui's eyes were red: "Guard Zhao, you don't even want to talk to me?"

When Zhao Jiuxiao heard this, he felt a pain in his heart. He was afraid that Lan Cui would misunderstand that he didn't like her, so he quickly said:

"Lan Cui, I want to explain to you that I didn't mean to avoid you. I thought you had someone you liked more, so I..."

Lan Cui denied: "I didn't, I only liked you from the beginning to the end."

When Zhao Jiuxiao heard this, his heart, which had been hanging in the air for many days, finally settled down. He couldn't help crying and actually started crying.

A grown man, with a pursed mouth, raised his broad hand to wipe away his tears, then wiped away his tears with his other hand. When he spoke, he began to cry with a choked voice:

“Woo~ Then why didn’t you pay attention to me, woooo~, do you know how scared I was, woooooooooooooo.”

Lan Cui and Zhao Jiuxiao had known each other for so many years, and it was the first time she saw him cry. She was a little flustered and quickly took out her handkerchief and stuffed it into his hand:

"Wipe it off quickly, stop crying, or the people in our palace will know and think I bullied you."

Zhao Jiuxiao cried like a flute with its hole blocked, sobbing inconsolably. Lan Cui could only accompany Zhao Jiuxiao and wait until he calmed down before speaking.

A quarter of an hour later, Zhao Jiuxiao finally stopped sobbing. The two of them sat closer than before, and the atmosphere became harmonious.

"Lan Cui, just tell me what I did wrong. I will definitely change it. Please don't ignore me in the future."

Lan Cui looked at Zhao Jiuxiao's resentful expression and finally couldn't help but said:

"I'm angry that you helped Ling Yunche. You know that Ling Yunche has always coveted our queen. During this southern tour, our queen fell into the water, and he deliberately came to disgust us. If you help him, you are harming our queen. I will definitely not be on good terms with you."

When Zhao Jiuxiao heard it, it was Ling Yunche again.

He just felt sorry for Ling Yunche because he had a lame leg, and because of their old friendship, he helped him.

I didn't expect that he would dare to covet Concubine Ling. If this were discovered, we would all be dead.

He still wants to have children with Lan Cui and cannot be implicated by Ling Yunche.

"Lan Cui, let me explain to you, I did help Ling Yunche's team on the southern tour. This is my fault, and I will never shirk my responsibility. But after listening to you today, I promise you that I will never help him again. Can you forgive me this time?"

Lan Cui heard the sincerity in Zhao Jiuxiao's tone, and also appreciated the fact that he didn't get stuck in a rut or cowardly shirk responsibility, so she didn't act pretentiously.

"Jiuxiao, if you say so today, I will definitely believe you."

Zhao Jiuxiao touched Lan Cui's little hand, and a simple smile appeared on his face, which had just cried.

Outside the window, Wang Chan chuckled. It turned out that Guard Zhao was so funny when he cried.

Chunchan slapped his hat and said, "Keep your voice down! They can hear you!"

Wang Chan covered his mouth, and the two of them bent over and sneaked into the main hall to report what had just happened to Yan Wan.
