Fan Xing remained silent for a moment.
"Luo Luo, I want to wait for someone here. He said he likes to stay here with me, and even if he dies one day, his soul will return here!"
She sighed.
"After I died, my soul slept for a long time. When I woke up, I searched the entire city but couldn't find him. It seemed he had left, but I believe he will definitely come back to find me..."
Qin Luo recalled the story the aunt had told him.
I asked her, "Is the person you're talking about your good friend? The one who was captured and taken to the palace, and whose intestines were ripped out?"
Fan Xing thought for a moment: "Whose intestines were cut out?"
Qin Luo was also confused.
"The auntie outside said it's a story passed down from generation to generation. It's about your good friend being captured by the emperor and taken to the palace. Then his stomach was cut open, and his intestines spilled out all over the ground!"
"Nonsense, isn't this a rumor? He did disguise himself as a eunuch to enter the palace, hoping to take the opportunity to rescue me, but in the end, he not only failed to rescue me!"
"Then what?"
"Then, the emperor bestowed him upon me to be his personal eunuch. The two of us ate, drank, and had fun in the palace. Apart from not being able to leave the palace, we lived a pretty comfortable life!"
Qin Luo was completely stunned.
"Didn't they say that the emperor forced you to demonstrate the art of plant growth to princes and nobles? He even deliberately injured people and made you heal them, and asked a high monk to trap you. In the end, your friend's stomach was cut open, and in a fit of rage, you killed all the imperial guards and attendants before escaping the palace?"
Fan Xing was baffled.
"What is all this nonsense? It's true that the emperor summoned me to the palace, but he wanted me to be his concubine. I refused! So he hired many skilled fighters to prevent me from escaping!"
She suddenly felt a little embarrassed as she spoke.
"Once, he asked me to help save someone. After I brought the person back to life, I returned to my lodgings and found no guards, so I thought I'd take the opportunity to escape!"
I even turned around a bit embarrassed.
"As a result, I exhausted my energy, fell off the wall, and passed out. I didn't wake up for several days, so he invited many eminent monks to the palace to pray for my recovery!"
"Huh? What about performances for nobles? Are those fake too?"
"There's no such thing as performing plant growth techniques. I just let the plants grow in my yard when I had nothing better to do. Cutting them open is utter nonsense!"
Qin Luo felt like she was about to crash.
"Then what about the killings you mentioned? And what about how your hair turned from black to white and you lost most of your vitality when you left the palace?"
"Hey, it's all because that emperor wasn't ruthless enough. Every prince wanted to usurp the throne. His brothers wanted to kill him, and his sons wanted to kill him too!"
"Wow, that's terrible!"
"The worst part is that his empress almost stabbed him to death. If it weren't for me, he would have died long ago!"
She boasted arrogantly.
"I only saved him by using most of my life force because he had treated me and Xia Beinian well, helping him purge the palace and eliminate the traitors!"
Then, as if remembering something, she chuckled twice.
"Hehe! In the end, he gave me a lot of money and let Xia Beinian and me leave the palace. Then I died!"
Then paused
"But I never regretted saving that emperor. He was a bit unreasonable, but kind-hearted. During my time in the palace, he provided me with the best food and drink, and except for not letting me leave the palace, he listened to everything I said!"
"You're quite proud of yourself!"
"Of course, he knew I knew Xia Beinian, and he also knew he wasn't a eunuch. He still asked him to take care of me. Actually, his decision not to let me leave the palace was a way of protecting me!"
Looking back, she also felt a little regretful.
"Back then, I was too reckless and went around saving people, making the common people praise me to the skies. If I hadn't stayed in the palace, I would definitely have been captured by another country, and things might have really turned out very badly!"
Qin Luo touched the scar on his face and sighed.
"That's for sure!"
Fan Xing also sighed.
"Later, I left the palace and went into hiding. He helped me cover up my identity in many ways so that no one could find me. So I don't regret giving up most of my life to save him."
Qin Luo compared her words with those of the older woman.
"Oh my god! You're wrong, completely wrong. What's being said outside is completely different from what you're saying. They all say that emperor was cruel and heartless, the culprit who killed you. It's so unfair! A kind-hearted emperor has been called a demon and cursed for nearly a thousand years. Who can we complain to?"
Fan Xing also stuttered.
"This...this...I didn't expect this either! Who was this idiot who spread this?"
Qin Luo then remembered what the aunt had mentioned about her friend who committed suicide.
"By the way, your friend didn't leave this city. He made arrangements for your funeral and then took his own life at your grave. As for where his soul went, I have no idea."
Fan Xing was shocked
"Suicide? Didn't he say he had a beloved girl? He even said he would go find her after I left, and promised to bring his girl to live here and never leave!"
"Um... is it possible that you're that girl? He really didn't leave. He even died at your grave. That guy's a good one! He keeps his word!"
Qin Luo waited for a long time, but Fan Xing did not reply.
Looking up at the altar, the solitary little crystal core was trembling slightly.
As she approached, she heard Fan Xing shout loudly.
"Xia Beinian, you big idiot, waaaaah~"
The two people outside the door were completely confused.
Then I was suddenly startled by that roar.
Qin Yunning asked Qin Yunyuan
"Big cousin, who is Xia Beinian?"
Qin Yunyuan was also confused.
"I don't know, but he sounds like a complete idiot!"
