Mo Lingchen's face turned pale, and his heart pounded like thunder. He knew it was impossible, but he still couldn't help but feel excited and overjoyed, and even hoped that what she said was true.
"Does this mean the young lady wants to reconcile?"
Su Yujiao asked with a serious expression, "Have you ever heard of reincarnation?"
Mo Lingchen's eyes widened suddenly, staring at her in shock, and he even forgot to breathe.
Reincarnation?
Does she intend to let Peony's soul possess someone else?
Mo Lingchen's first reaction was just that, after all, Peony's body had already been buried.
If her soul enters her own body, then it's not called possession.
Seeing that he still looked confused and disbelieving, Su Yujiao spoke again: "Don't you think it's strange that Chu Qinghe woke up after falling from the high platform?"
"Didn't you notice at all that Chu Qinghe looked a lot like a peony after waking up?"
Mo Lingchen's pupils widened suddenly upon hearing Su Yujiao's words. His facial muscles tensed with surprise, and his chapped lips trembled slightly. He couldn't utter a word for a long time.
Su Yujiao knew he was reacting this way when she saw him frozen in place; otherwise, she wouldn't have come all this way in person.
Are you feeling better?
"I'll continue after you've calmed down."
Mo Lingchen realized what was happening and suddenly grabbed Su Yujiao's shoulders, his emotions more intense than ever before.
"You mean Chu Qinghe fell from the high platform and was actually dead, but Peony's soul entered her body and woke her up?"
"Chu Qinghe suddenly became like Mudan, able to sing and dance, gentle in nature, considerate and filial, and even in the end, she forged an imperial edict to save me. Was all of this done by Mudan?"
Su Yujiao nodded: "It seems that Peony's efforts were not in vain. You have felt everything she did."
Mo Lingchen couldn't forgive himself for his cold and hostile attitude towards Mudan, and for Mudan kneeling down to beg Xiao Bei to accept the money in order to save him, and for falsely conveying the imperial decree, which resulted in her being left to rot in the wilderness.
The man was on the verge of a breakdown, his eyes bloodshot, his voice choked with emotion: "Why didn't she tell me?"
"Does she think I won't believe her?"
“As long as she tells me, I will believe her and won’t treat her like Chu Qinghe, and I won’t treat her that way…”
Seeing his emotional breakdown, Su Yujiao sighed helplessly: "She originally wanted to tell you."
"But at the time he was in the palace, surrounded by secret guards and spies, so she dared not tell you easily."
"If anyone hears this, Consort Jing and the Emperor will definitely not let her off the hook."
"She barely survived, so of course we should cherish her."
"So, Peony wants to find an opportunity to tell you after she leaves the palace."
"But she learned from Consort Jing that Chu Zhongyuan was going to kidnap An'an to threaten me."
"There are priorities, so she pretended to have a woman's illness, the kind that requires taking off her pants for examination, and only dared to tell me the truth after Consort Jing sent away all the secret guards."
"When I learned the truth, I was initially happy, but then I became worried about her health."
"Peony knew that Chu Qinghe's body was deeply poisoned and her illness was terminal, so she decided not to tell you."
"After all, Chu Qinghe doesn't have many days left to live, so why make you suffer the pain of losing her again?"
"Just pretend nothing happened. She was already content to be by your side every moment in the last part of her life."
"She said that during her time as a ghost, she saw the future of many people."
"She saw soldiers going to war, facing freezing temperatures, lack of food and water, and dying tragically on the battlefield."
"Therefore, she worked hard to earn money, hoping to leave you as much money as possible so that you could save your life in times of crisis."
"Falsifying the imperial edict was the last thing she could do for you on her deathbed."
Mo Lingchen was already sobbing uncontrollably as he listened to Su Yujiao's words.
He deeply regretted not discovering the peony's secret sooner.
In fact, when Chu Qinghe danced the familiar dances of Peony, cooked meals to his liking, and undressed him every night with such tenderness, he should have realized that she was Peony.
He's so stupid, so stupid!
Mo Lingchen angrily pounded his head, hating himself for being so stupid!
"Calm down first."
"I came to you this time to save Mudan. Master Xuanqing said that as long as there is enough willpower, there is still a glimmer of hope."
Mo Lingchen suddenly looked up: "What should I do?"
How can I collect enough willpower?
"Can the peony be resurrected once again?"
"This time, no matter who she possesses, I will definitely be able to find out."
Su Yujiao shook her head: "This time it's not a case of being resurrected, but of coming back to life."
"I have preserved her body very well."
"Her soul doesn't need to borrow another person's body; it can return to its own body on its own."
"Really?" Mo Lingchen's body trembled with excitement.
"nature."
"However, whether you succeed or not depends entirely on your sincerity."
As the saying goes, saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda.
"And how many people did Peony save before she died by using Chu Qinghe's identity?"
"Such great merit has not been rewarded, you must help correct this."
"You need to make everyone grateful to Peony, not Chu Qinghe."
"As long as you all sincerely pray that the peony comes back to life, each prayer is a blessing."
As Su Yujiao spoke, she handed Mo Lingchen a talisman: "The moment this talisman flashes with golden light, the wish will be fulfilled."
"At that time, Master Xuanqing will use his magic again to bring the peony back to life."
Mo Lingchen suddenly stood up: "I'll make it clear to everyone right now, it was Mudan who saved them, not Chu Qinghe."
"Even if we have to ask for a prayer, we should ask everyone to pray for the peony together."
Su Yujiao thought for a moment and said, "Let's not do it. It's not good for the peony."
"It's always a bit scary when someone who's already dead comes back to life."
"If someone with ulterior motives makes a fuss and demonizes the peony, even if the peony comes back to life, it will be plagued with troubles."
Mo Lingchen frowned: "Since the truth cannot be revealed, how can you sincerely plead, sir?"
Su Yujiao suddenly asked, "Do you still have enough food supplies?"
Mo Lingchen was taken aback, not understanding why she suddenly brought up the matter of provisions again.
"There's not much left, at most we can hold on for another seven or eight days."
"That's perfect. I brought a batch of grain and fodder, which is hidden in a dilapidated temple outside the city. It should be enough for you to eat for a month or two."
"Later, I will continue to send you food and weapons. You must return alive; this is Peony's hope."
“I don’t want her to be crying all the time after she comes back to life.”
“You send someone to bring the grain over, and then I will gather everyone together and tell you a story.”
"If everyone has food to eat and knows that there are other people who are helping them, they will definitely pray sincerely."
"Oh, by the way, where is Chu Qinghe's body?"
Mo Lingchen replied, "It's preserved in the igloo."
