When Jiu Ranling woke up, there was only a man beside her bed. When she saw the person clearly, the corners of her lips curled up weakly."It's really strange that you're alone.”
"I didn't know when you would wake up, so I advised the others to go back and rest.”Jiu Ranqing passed a glass of water to Jiu Ranling." How do you feel now? The commotion today had scared everyone.”
"Where's Lan Yu?" Jiu Ran Ling asked.
"Revocation of the position and expulsion from the palace."
"It seems that for Lan Mu's sake, Imperial Father has been lenient.”Jiu Ranling smiled faintly." But it's fine. This is enough.”
"If I didn't know some clues beforehand, I'm afraid I would have been fooled by you.”Jiu Ranqing sighed helplessly." Why are you playing with your own life?”
"There's Weishi, isn't there? I know I won't die." Jiu Ranling smiled, but her smile did not reach her eyes." Besides, I promised him to help Fourth Brother get rid of this marriage. Just take it as me…returning the favor.”
"This is clearly not the only way.”Jiu Ranqing frowned disapprovingly." Wait a little longer. Maybe there will be a better time."”
"Lan Yu is still a problem. If you can solve it early, don't delay it. Moreover, after all these things, Concubine Li could restrain herself a little. Wasn't it killing two birds with one stone?”
"Because of this, Concubine Li was almost banished to the Cold Palace by Father.”
"It seems that my father treats me very well." Jiu Ranling chuckled.”
"If Fourth Brother knew that you were the one who planned this, even if it was for him, he would definitely not agree.”Jiu Ranqing shook her head." You're seriously injured, and his mother and uncle were reprimanded. I'm afraid he's not feeling good either.”
" Of course I know." Jiuran Ling hid her smile. However, the heavens have destined us to stand against Concubine Li. No matter what, we will hurt the innocent him. If only we weren't children of the royal family, how good would that be…"
"Don't think too much." Jiuran brushed away the hair on her forehead and changed the topic." Let's take a look at this matter first. I'm not sure how much my father and ancestor have guessed. Fourth Brother is just worried and confused. The other younger brothers might also have bright eyes.”
"So what?" Jiu Ranling pursed her lips." Those smart guys, it's none of their business. They definitely won't do anything unnecessary."”
"How can you be so heartless? After all, our brothers are really worried about you.”Jiu Ranqing turned around and waved." Before Father left, he instructed that if you woke up, he would send someone to inform them immediately.”
"Wait a minute." Jiu Ranqing was just about to say "someone" when Jiu Ranling's lips stopped. He turned around and looked at her in confusion.
Jiu Ran Ling smiled and half-closed her eyes." Let me enjoy this rare moment of peace."”
Seeing this, Jiu Ranqing tucked her in and whispered,""Alright, I'll do it. I'll stay here with you."
"... Yeah." There was a faint voice, and a trace of tiredness climbed onto Jiuran Ling's weak face. Her long eyelashes trembled slightly with her breathing, and every movement seemed to be telling her fatigue. Jiu Ranqing saw it with her eyes and felt pain in her heart.
The peaceful atmosphere did not last long. After a while, someone rushed to Jiu Ran Ling's bed and said angrily,""Stop pretending! I know you're awake!"
Jiu Ranling looked up and smiled sweetly.""Sister Yu, you saved Ling-er's life. I don't know how to thank you for such a great kindness…"
"Stop pretending! I really misjudged you!"
Jiu Ranqing stared at Wei Shi warily, afraid that she would send Jiu Ranling to the King of Hell on impulse. At this moment, Wei Shi seemed to be shrouded in anger. Her hands were clenched tightly, but her delicate face exuded a coldness that did not belong to her.
" Sister Wei," Jiu Ran Ling frowned in confusion," I don't know what you're talking about."”
"Ha! You don't know? You clearly know my family's teachings! The Wei Family has been helping the world for generations, but you've made me fall into such an unkind, unjust, and unfilial situation! " I gave you Dark Star because you promised me that you wouldn't harm anyone, but you…" The calmness and gentleness on Wei Shi's body had all turned into trembling at this moment. She pointed at Jiu Ran Ling and said,""Jiu Ran Ling, you really have the heart of a snake and a scorpion!”
Jiu Ran Ling's eyes dimmed, but she smiled again,""Sister Wei, you've misunderstood. I didn't harm anyone else. I took the Dark Star Powder and consumed it myself. In the end, I only harmed myself.”
"But you let Lan Yu take the blame!”" No matter what, you still harmed her!" Weishi scolded sternly.”
"If Lan Yu didn't have any improper thoughts towards fourth brother, she wouldn't have used the Star Darkness Scattering and wouldn't have fallen into my trap. Karma, she had it coming.”
Wei Shi looked at Jiu Ran Ling's 'innocent' face and said hatefully after a while,""You always have an excuse, no matter if it's unreasonable or not. I can't win against your glib tongue, but your sins won't disappear because of this!”
"Shut up!" Jiu Ranqing finally couldn't help but speak. The anger that she had been suppressing for a long time seemed to have been ignited at this moment." Weishi, what do you know?”
How could she understand? How could she understand his younger sister? She bore the blood grudge of killing her mother and had the halo of being favored in the palace, but it was difficult for her to move forward. How could she understand that every time that child hurt someone else, the one who felt the most pain was herself? How could she understand? Ling-er hated it when others saw the wound in her heart. Every time she wanted to cry, she would smile even brighter.
She did not know anything, so how could she judge his sister, who was so heart-wrenching, to have the heart of a snake?!
Wei Shi looked at Jiu Ranqing. This man was as gentle as water, but when he was angry, he was like ice. She smiled coldly. It's your business how you want to play tricks. I never want to understand such a dirty and filthy royal family!”
Then, Weishi turned around and left. The raised hem of her dress seemed to be the note of her anger.
"Brother Qing, how could you bear to bring such a person to the Imperial Palace?”Jiu Ran Ling looked at the figure and spoke softly.
Jiu Ranqing did not say anything and stared at her deeply.
After a while, Jiu Ranling finally stopped smiling as if she had been seen through. She helplessly reached out to Jiu Ranqing,""Brother Qing, can you hug me?”
Jiu Ranqing supported her as she struggled to get up and let her lean into his arms.
"Brother Qing, actually…I don't want to understand the royal family. I also want to live peacefully with you in Jinzhou.”Jiu Ran Ling's voice seemed to shatter upon contact." These are all my sins. I understand."
His tears almost collapsed. He could only hug her tightly.
" Ling-er," he said slowly, his voice hoarse." In my arms, cry if you want to.”
Jiu Ran Ling did not answer. After a while, Jiu Ranqing felt that her neck was wet.

"Master." Someone appeared beside Jiu Ranqing not long after. The person from the Qing Dynasty made a shushing gesture and asked very softly,"What's wrong?"
"Miss Yu met the Empress in the Imperial Garden, and then followed the Empress to the Phoenix Rites Palace.”
"I understand." There was no emotion on Jiu Ranqing's face." You can leave first." Continue to follow and report back immediately if anything happens.”
"Yes." The person disappeared instantly.
Jiu Ranqing lowered her head and looked at the person in her arms. Thinking that she had fallen asleep, she sighed softly. That sigh was like a chain that turned a hundred times and a thousand times, but it was also like a lock that locked people's hearts.
"It was expected that she was taken away by the Empress.”However, Jiu Ranling suddenly spoke. She looked up, her eyes clear as if they had been washed." The Empress has been acting for her entire life. It's easy to fool Weishi."”
" You…" Jiu Ranqing's voice lingered in the Phoenix Plume Palace, but there was nothing else.
