After Jiu Ranling left the imperial prison, she did not return to the Phoenix Feather Palace.
"Your Highness, where are we going?”Pin 'er asked in confusion.
"Go to the Rising Dragon Hall. Father must be there handling official business.”
" Your Highness," Pin 'er was a little anxious," must you interfere in the affairs of the Tenth Prince?”
"I didn't expect Xu Shuangwei to be so fierce and determined even though she usually looks gentle and weak.”Jiu Ran Ling chuckled." Maybe they will live a good life if they get together."”
The moment Jiu Ran Ling stepped into the Rising Dragon Hall, she was so shocked by the scene in front of her that she almost forgot to bow.
Concubine Mirror knelt in the hall, her face pale. Half of her face was covered in blood, and there were pieces of broken celadon by her feet. The Emperor sat at the head of the table with a dark face, dealing with official business. He didn't even look at Lady Mirror.
"Your son pays his respects to Imperial Father."
Hearing Jiu Ran Ling's voice, the Emperor finally stopped what he was doing. He glanced at his daughter and said lightly,""Girl, you came at the right time. Send Concubine Mirror back to me.”He didn't ask why Jiu Ran Ling was here.
Jiu Ran Ling rolled her eyes and finally agreed. She walked up to Lady Mirror and said gently,""Lady Mirror, Ling-er will take you back to the palace.”
Lady Mirror ignored him and continued to kneel, as if no one could attract her attention.
Jiu Ranling smiled, as if she knew that Lady Mirror wouldn't react, so she reached out to pull her. Lady Mirror finally regained her senses and struggled to break free from Jiuran Feather's grip.
However, Lady Mirror was a weak woman. She was no match for Jiuran Ling, who had practiced her skills. She was dragged up by her in an instant. Lady Mirror saw that she couldn't move at all, and she glared at Jiu Ran Ling angrily.
Jiu Ran Ling glanced at Lady Mirror, and the cold smile on her lips made Lady Mirror unable to move. Lady Mirror looked at Jiuran Ling as if she wanted to see through her disguise and see the deepest part of her.
Jiu Ran Ling turned to the Emperor and smiled sweetly,""Father, I'll take my leave with Concubine Mirror.”
The Emperor waved his hand and flipped a page of the memorial, not even raising his head.
After Jiu Ran Ling knelt down, she dragged Lady Mirror out with her.
"Your Highness, what are you doing?!" After leaving the Rising Dragon Hall, Lady Mirror shook off Jiu Ran Ling's hand.
Jiu Ranling did not stop her and tidied her sleeves.""Let's go back. Even if you kneel to death in front of Imperial Father, you won't be able to save Tenth Brother.”
" Thank you, Your Highness," Lady Mirror said coldly." It's my business anyway."”
"You are a smart person, how could you not understand?”Jiu Ran Ling's expression was indifferent." I wanted to go to the Rising Dragon Hall to plead for mercy, but the moment I stepped into the hall, I knew that pleading would not work.”
Lady Mirror didn't say anything. She was obviously surprised by Jiuran Ling's plea.
"I just came from the imperial prison."
" What happened to Xun Er and Shuang Er?" Lady Mirror mumbled.”
Jiu Ran Ling was good at using useful elements. She smiled and said,""If you want to know, how about I send you back to bandage your wound first?”
This time, Lady Mirror didn't refuse.
"Alright." Jiu Ran Ling tied a knot at the end of the gauze." Although Father hit you in anger, the wound is not deep. If you take good care of it, there should not be a scar." Tomorrow I'll send some medicine.”
Lady Mirror touched her wound, and her expression returned to nothingness.""There is no need to trouble Your Highness.”
"I know that you're not the kind of person who pays special attention to appearance.”Jiu Ran Ling put away the medicine box and handed it to Pin 'er." Aren't you in a hurry to cut ties with me?"”
Lady Mirror's eyes flashed.
"You've been living in this northernmost palace with Tenth Brother for so long, and you don't want to step into the palace's struggles. Naturally, you don't want to involve a troublesome person like me. After all, no matter what, I'm still at the center of this harem. I understand your mentality, so I only secretly brought you back to treat your wound. I didn't make a big fuss about bringing the imperial physician. However, if you want to save your son, I hope you will listen to me this time.”
Lady Mirror finally looked at Jiu Ran Ling and narrowed her eyes.""What ability does Xun 'er have to be able to invite the princess?”
"Because their persistence touched me.”
Lady Mirror raised her head. Jiuran Ling stood in front of her with her back against the light. The smile on her face was no longer ostentatious. Her lips were quietly curved, and her glass-like eyes were filled with sorrow.
Lady Mirror held her breath. She saw her own reflection in Jiuran Ling's dark and pure eyes, and she almost burst into tears.

"Pin 'er, go get two sets of eunuch clothes.”It was evening when they returned to the Phoenix Feather Palace. Jiu Ran Ling leaned against the soft couch and instructed.
"Your Highness, you have been running around for the whole day and have not eaten yet. This servant will serve you dinner first.”
"Yes, I am. This matter had to be planned properly and could not be rushed.”Jiu Ran Ling responded faintly, her gaze falling on the vase on the small table beside the soft couch. He took out the most dark-red one and sniffed it lightly.
"Looks like that matter has to be postponed…"
Two days later, late at night.
She put the two sets of eunuch uniforms that she had prepared in advance into the food box, then carried the food box and walked out of the Phoenix Feather Palace. She gave Pin 'er one last warning,""Stay in the palace and don't go anywhere. If anyone asks where I went, just say that I left you behind for fun and you don't know anything. Do you remember it clearly?"
" Your Highness," Pin 'er looked worried." Do you really want to go alone? Why don't you tell the Second Prince and the others to think of a solution together?"”
"If they find out about this, please pack your luggage and leave the Phoenix Feather Palace.”Jiu Ran Ling's face sank and she left quietly without looking back.
