Dark Moon Fairy suddenly felt a pang of sadness, but she quickly suppressed the strange emotion. Her voice was slightly erratic, "Since you already have someone you love, why don't you tell Emperor Wen? With how much he loves you, if you ask, maybe he won't reject you?"
Xiao Jinghan pursed his lips and said after a moment of silence: "How can you, a man who travels around the world, understand the complicated situation in the court and the heart of the emperor? It's already very late, please take care of yourself, Master of Dark Moon Pavilion!" After that, he turned around and prepared to leave.
Dark Moon Fairy naturally understood that Xiao Jinghan was ordering him to leave, and her eyes gradually turned cold. Well, after all, they were from two different worlds. What did his thoughts have to do with her?
Thinking of this, Dark Moon Fairy said no more, turned around and left, disappearing into the vast night. Xiao Jinghan, who was left behind, stood quietly in the same place, looking in the direction of her departure, as if thinking about something...
Luo Lingyue dragged her exhausted body slowly into the general's mansion, as if the whole world was pressing down on her thin shoulders.
She sat silently in her deserted and lonely boudoir, her eyes empty and confused, staring straight at the bright moon hanging high in the sky outside the window, her whole body motionless like a sculpture.
Time slipped by quietly, and in the blink of an eye, it was already the next morning. Sunlight streamed through the windows, but it failed to dispel the gloom and sorrow that enveloped Luo Lingyue. At this moment, Concubine An sent someone to invite Luo Lingyue to the palace for an audience. When Linglong opened the door and saw her young lady, she shuddered with fear.
Luo Lingyue, standing before him, looked extremely haggard, with thick dark circles around her eyes, resembling a panda. Her once beautiful face was now filled with weariness and fatigue, devoid of any color.
Linglong felt deeply distressed and gently consoled her, "Miss, there's no need to worry too much. The poison in Prince Xiao's body has been lifted. All he needs to do now is recuperate and he'll be back to normal. You should take good care of yourself!"
However, Luo Lingyue didn't seem to have taken Linglong's words to heart. She continued to stare blankly into the distance, her thoughts already drifting into the endless void...
Luo Lingyue sat quietly in the bumpy carriage, a cacophony of noise emanating from outside the window—the enthusiastic cries of merchants lining the streets. These familiar yet unfamiliar sounds brought her back to reality from her reverie, and her gaze gradually regained focus.
Luo Lingyue chuckled bitterly inwardly: After two lifetimes, could it be that I still couldn't escape fate's tricks? Why was I always attracted to those seemingly weak and aloof men?
Looking back on the past, Cheng Li was also like this, which makes people feel pity. At that time, I was innocent and wanted to protect this fragile life, grow up with him, and go through the ups and downs together.
However, the truth dealt her a heavy blow! It turned out that the seemingly pitiful person was not truly weak and powerless, but a ferocious and cunning wolf! When facing her, he was even more ruthless and resolute, with no intention of showing any mercy!
Luo Lingyue took a deep breath, trying to calm the turbulent emotions within her. She told herself: That's it! Love, men, all to hell! From now on, revenge is my only priority! When I have my revenge, I will be free and unfettered, enjoying life to the fullest!
At this point, Luo Lingyue completely let go of the entanglement in her heart and regained her spirit...
After coming out of Yihuan Palace, Concubine An asked her to go to Haoxue Palace to see Prince Xiao. Luo Lingyue thought that since she had entered the palace, she should go and see Prince Xiao.
The young eunuch bowed his body and respectfully led Luo Lingyue slowly towards the Haoxue Palace. Along the way, the two were silent, with only the soft sound of footsteps echoing in the air.
As they passed by Snow Moon Lake, Luo Lingyue caught a glimpse of the Crown Prince standing quietly by the lake. Her heart tightened, and she quickly lowered her gaze, her steps becoming even lighter, as if she was afraid of attracting the Crown Prince's attention.
However, things didn't go as planned. Just as Luo Lingyue was about to pass by the Crown Prince, he suddenly stepped to the right, blocking her path. He smiled, but his eyes revealed a deeper meaning that was difficult to fathom.
Luo Lingyue was startled and quickly lowered her head, not daring to meet the Crown Prince's gaze. She silently prayed that she could escape this awkward situation as quickly as possible.
At this time, the prince broke the silence and said, "You should go back first. I have something to ask the Princess Luo."
Upon hearing this, the young eunuch was stunned for a moment, then responded respectfully, "Yes!" Then he turned and left towards Haoxue Palace, leaving Luo Lingyue and the prince alone.
At this moment, Luo Lingyue felt her heartbeat quicken and her cheeks flushed slightly. Facing the Crown Prince, she couldn't help but want to kill him!
But in the prince's opinion, Luo Lingyue's performance still showed that she admired him.
The Crown Prince stood by the Snow Moon Lake, gazing at the water. He spoke in a low voice, "This beautiful Snow Moon Lake was built specifically for Xiao He by my father. The magnificent Snow Palace was also built for her. Oh, perhaps you don't know who Xiao He is. She is Xiao Jinghan's biological mother! She is also the woman my father longs for and yearns for!"
Hearing this, Luo Lingyue's expression gradually grew stern, her voice carrying a hint of chill: "Your Highness, please be careful with your words! Such remarks are truly disrespectful to His Majesty!"
However, the Crown Prince's face was gloomy, his eyes dark and unsettling. He sneered and said sarcastically, "We're the only two here. Even if you spread this, everyone will think you're deliberately framing me to protect your cousin Chengjin! Haha!"
