Chapter 76: Concubine Xian is ill again
"Princess, are you okay?"
Siyu had been standing here for a long time. Seeing that Rongyu was twisted and had no intention of sitting up for a long time, she was really worried that he might not be able to get up.
"It's okay, it's okay," Rong Yu said stubbornly.
He supported himself on the bed and slowly sat up. As soon as he sat down hard, he trembled in pain.
I gritted my teeth and pretended nothing was wrong, getting out of bed with difficulty.
I found that my legs were shaking and I almost fell down.
Siyu took a step forward to help him, but when she saw that he had stood firm, she withdrew her hand in time.
"Who did you say was looking for me?" Rong Yu asked.
"Yang Lin, I've been waiting for a long time."
Yes, Yang Lin must want to find out whether he is Eleven and get an answer.
But how could he go to see him like this now? It completely destroyed the image of Eleven in his mind.
It wouldn't be right not to meet after waiting for so long.
Rongyu found a sky blue dress to put on, found some gauze to wrap around his neck, and then went to the front yard under Siyu's guidance.
When Yang Lin saw Rong Yu coming out, the first thing he noticed was the white gauze on his neck and the way he walked.
"Are you hurt?"
"No, there were just a lot of mosquitoes last night and I got bitten a lot. I scratched them." Rong Yu said without forgetting to glare at Ye Chenyin.
A barely perceptible trace of loneliness flashed across Yang Lin's eyes, but he said nothing more.
"This king still has things to deal with, you two can chat first."
After Ye Chenyin left, both sides fell into silence.
But Yang Lin stared at him intently, as if he wanted to see through him and see into his soul.
Rongyu felt a little embarrassed being looked at and smiled awkwardly.
"Where...did he go?" Yang Lin asked.
Finally confirmed that he is not Eleven.
Rong Yu put away his smile and looked back seriously: "Sorry, I didn't mean to lie to you."
Yang Lin smiled and shook his head: "You didn't lie to me. Your every move tells me that you are not him. It's just that I don't want to believe it."
Yang Lin looked at those identical eyes and identical appearance. How could he believe that this was not him?
Is there really someone in this world who looks so similar?
Even if I want to remove the mole, the position should be exactly right, right?
He couldn't figure out what went wrong. How could he be him and not be him?
Rong Yu pursed his lips and said, "You may not believe this, but this body is indeed Eleven's, but the soul is not his. I am just borrowing a corpse to revive the soul."
Yang Lin looked at him indifferently with an expressionless face.
Rong Yu also felt that if it were him, he would not believe it easily, and he should be given some time to accept it.
"It wasn't him the last time we met, right?"
During the last spring hunt in the woods, Rongyu had indeed pretended to be Eleven and deceived him.
Rong Yu looked at him embarrassedly and pursed her lips and said, "When Eleven failed his third mission, he was whipped a hundred times and couldn't survive. That's when I entered his body."
"Survived in his place."
He did come at that time. He woke up in a mass grave and was almost scared to death.
Rong Yu was afraid Yang Lin wouldn't believe her, so she added, "It's true."
Yang Lin didn't disbelieve it, but he just didn't understand. He had clearly given Eleven life-saving medicine before torturing him. Eleven had good internal strength, so it was impossible for him to die as long as nothing went wrong.
Can the soul be resurrected even if it is not dead? Or is it one corpse with two souls?
"Can he come back?" Yang Lin asked.
Probably not. If he could come back, wouldn't he have come back five months after his death?
"Zao Zao, is there any hope for Eleven to come back?" Rong Yu asked again uncertainly.
"I'm sorry, host, but Eleven is dead and there's no chance of him coming back."
When Rongyu entered his body, Eleven had indeed died. If it weren't for Rongyu, the body would have rotted away long ago.
"cannot."
Rong Yu's words did not make Yang Lin feel much emotion. His expression remained unchanged, but there was a little more sadness in his eyes.
He lowered his eyes, then looked back into the courtyard, a wry smile appearing at the corners of his lips.
From the moment they entered the Rakshasa Hall, he had been thinking about how to leave. After trying for so long, he finally found an opportunity to help Eleven get rid of that half-human, half-ghost life.
I never thought that it would be just a false alarm.
Once Luosha Hall was destroyed, they were just one step away from the life they wanted, really just one step away.
Tears slid down my eyes, dripped down my cheeks and landed on the back of my hands, feeling warm.
"Don't say the peach blossoms are still smiling, life is like a dream with empty joy."
Fantasy is nothing but illusion.
Man proposes...God disposes.
"Is he really not coming back?"
It sounded like a rhetorical question, but it didn't sound real to Rong Yu, and it sounded like he was mumbling to himself.
"Rakshasa Hall is gone. When Eleven finds out, he will definitely hope that you can live the life you like."
"Yang Lin, when I came here, Eleven was really gone. I'm not lying to you."
No one feels good when a close friend passes away.
This is Eleven's body, which has not been buried yet. Yanglin wanted to go burn some paper but couldn't find the grave.
China values resting in peace, and this is what Yang Lin feels most sad about.
Yang Lin said nothing and walked out slowly.
"Host, Yang Lin's departure this time should be for seclusion. If nothing unexpected happens, he won't have a role in the future."
It’s better this way, at least I can live a simple life.
Eleven’s death was a huge blow to him, and this injury will take him a long time to recover from.
"I always feel like I've done something wrong and can't make up for it. The damn system is clearly the culprit, so why am I the one taking the blame?"
If it weren't for this broken system, he would have come to this place and Eleven wouldn't have died so soon.
"Host, you should think that if the system had not been broken, Eleven would have died by now."
That’s right, he was killed by Ye Chenyin.
Forget it, there are pros and cons.
"By the way, according to this plot, is Concubine Xian going to be offline?"
Concubine Xian will fall ill, and then her secret meeting with Song Mei'an will be discovered by the dog emperor, and both of them will commit suicide for love.
Go tell Ye Chenyin quickly that Xianpin's evil value is about to explode again after his death.
Rong Yu quickly ran to the study, and as soon as he reached the door, he saw Ye Chenyin and Butler Cai coming out one after another.
Both of them looked very anxious.
"Your Highness." Rong Yu shouted.
Ye Chenyin stopped and walked up to him and said, "My mother is in trouble. I need to go to the palace."
Speak of the devil and he will appear.
As soon as one thing is finished, the next one comes.
"I'll go with you." Rong Yu said.
"good."
Ye Chenyin did not dare to delay, and the two of them rode on one horse and galloped towards the palace.
"Zao Zao, is Concubine Xian sick or poisoned this time?"
"Concubine Xian is ill this time because of an epidemic, and it was Concubine Wu who did it."
Ye Chenming was imprisoned in the Heavenly Prison by commoners, which was equivalent to being killed. Concubine Wu's favor was not as good as before, so it was normal for her to feel resentful.
But these things have nothing to do with Concubine Xian, so why should she be targeted?
Xianpin was even tired of getting involved in these things, let alone fighting in the palace to defeat the emperor.
Shouldn’t Concubine Wu’s resentment towards Concubine Xian be directed at Empress Xu and Ye Chenyuan?
Ye Chenyin's face was ashen, he must be very anxious. However, repeated disappointments still failed to extinguish his hope for Xianpin.
Quickly arriving at Chaoyun Palace, the palace maids and eunuchs were kneeling on the ground.
The emperor and empress also looked very unhappy.
"Your son pays homage to the Emperor and the Empress. How is my mother?" Ye Chenyin asked anxiously.
"Doctor Shen and Doctor Zhang have finished their diagnosis and are about to report back. Please listen." Xu Yingying said.
"Doctor Zhang, you say." Emperor Gan said
"Your Majesty, Concubine Xian has contracted the plague."
Emperor Gan's expression turned even uglier. He sternly said, "Hasn't the plague been brought under control? Why is it still in the palace?"
"The plague has indeed been brought under control, but... Concubine Xian did contract the plague." Imperial Physician Zhang said nervously.
He couldn't figure out how he got infected.
"Did Concubine Xian offend someone and is being deliberately retaliated against?" Rong Yu asked.
Give them some clues so that they can guess that it was a deliberate revenge.
Emperor Gan looked at Xu Yingying calmly, and Xu Yingying immediately looked back at him, revealing an unhappy expression very directly.
Is Empress Xu so arrogant that she dares to look at the emperor like that?
Rongyu gave Xu Yingying a big thumbs up in his heart.
"I do not like Concubine Xian, but I disdain to use despicable means against her." Xu Yingying directly retorted.
That’s right, if the queen was someone who knew how to use tricks, the harem wouldn’t be so peaceful.
Normally, he only bullied Concubine Xian with words and never did anything excessive.
Only Concubine Wu would occasionally show some temper, but every time the Queen would calmly resolve it, so he would just turn a blind eye.
The others had no chance to play any tricks at all, as everyone was suppressed by the queen.
Concubine Xian never interacts with those people. She doesn't take them seriously at all. How could she make enemies with them?
"Infection with the epidemic requires contact with things used by the infected person. Has anyone sent anything here recently, or has Your Majesty come into contact with strangers or living things?" Ye Chenyin asked coldly.
Pei'er thought about it carefully and shook her head: "Your Majesty rarely goes out and has almost no contact with the people in the palace. Her things are all her usual things. There is nothing suspicious."
"Have you eaten anything?" Rong Yu asked.
It's impossible not to have that. Since Concubine Wu wanted to harm Concubine Xian, she must have done something.
Pei'er thought about it carefully again: "The morning before yesterday, I accompanied the Majesty to the Imperial Garden to collect dew. I was bumped into by a little palace maid I didn't see. The Majesty was kind enough to help her up. She thanked the Majesty and gave her a velvet flower hairpin, saying that it was made by her mother and was not worth much. The Majesty accepted it because of her sincerity. However, she wore the hairpin for a while, took it off when she returned to the palace, and placed it in the box."
"Where is the hairpin?" Ye Chenyin asked.
"Oh, why are you asking about the hairpin? Go find that palace maid and ask her if she was instructed by someone." Rong Yu said.
He is usually very smart, but why does he fail at the critical moment?
"Come here, call all the palace maids who went to the Imperial Garden the morning before yesterday." Emperor Gan said.
As long as there is movement, there will be loopholes. Just call the palace maid and ask her and you will find out.
Worry makes one confused. Ye Chenyin must be very nervous now.
"It's okay. Knowing it's an epidemic will make it easier to deal with. Doctor Shen has already prepared some medicine. Your Majesty will be fine after taking it for a few days. Don't worry too much."
Ye Chenyin held Rongyu's hand and smiled faintly.
"I shouldn't have let you come."
The palace is a den of dragons and tigers, full of dangers, but he was brought into the palace twice because of his mother's affairs.
Rong Yu smiled and said, "Xianpin is my mother-in-law. How could I not come to see her when she is sick?"
Ye Chenyin was amused and rubbed his head.
The two of them were being so affectionate with each other, which made Emperor Gan feel annoyed.
