"She must be feeling really disappointed right now. I knew she had me in her heart!"
In this way, Ling Yuxuan gradually lost himself in self-pity.
Just then, Shangguan Qiuyue's voice came from beside him: "Young Master Ling, I'm so sorry..."
Because the wedding has been cancelled, in accordance with royal protocol, the young master cannot reside in the palace for the time being. We apologize for any inconvenience.
Upon hearing this, Ling Yuxuan's mind went completely blank.
But he quickly realized, "My junior sister is thinking about my reputation, so that people won't gossip and think I'm staying in the palace. She's so good to me."
So he smiled and said to Shangguan Qiuyue, "Okay, I'll leave the palace now. Please tell my junior sister that she doesn't need to worry about me and can just focus on her own business."
After saying that, he left the palace with a smile, without taking anything with him.
This scene left Shangguan Qiuyue completely dumbfounded.
...
In a wealthy manor on the outskirts of Chang'an, Xu Suiyan lay on a bed, his face deathly pale, his body covered with silver needles.
Standing next to him were two people, one of whom was Uncle Sun Yu.
Another one is Ruan Lingyue, who is known in the Holy Land for her ability to bring the dead back to life.
Not only is Ruan Lingyue's medical skill extremely high, but she can also bring you back to life as long as you have even a breath left.
However, her fees are extremely high; an ordinary person would almost go bankrupt if they asked her to perform a single treatment.
For example, there was once a man surnamed Wang who came to her for a checkup because of a back problem. After a quarter of an hour of discussing his condition, Ruan Lingyue asked him to go home and wait.
About half a month later, Mr. Wang's back was still not healed, but the consultation fee booklet arrived, requiring him to pay a consultation fee of 5,670 spirit stones.
The man surnamed Wang couldn't understand why talk therapy would cost so much, and immediately argued with Ruan Lingyue.
As a result, the next day, he was met with the forced demolition by the Western Shu army.
His wife was captured and forced into prostitution, his son was sent to the palace to become a eunuch, and his thirteen-year-old daughter was sold into prostitution. In an instant, his family was destroyed and his family was wiped out.
The reason for this is that, in addition to her superb medical skills, Ruan Lingyue is also quite beautiful.
Rumor has it that she is privately the mistress of Xu Rong, the Prince of Western Shu, and also Xu Suiyan's confidante. Their relationship is extremely complicated and definitely not something an ordinary person should provoke.
Outside the courtyard gate, the manor owner's family was neatly tied to wooden stakes, awaiting Xu Suiyan's judgment.
Only their sixteen-year-old daughter, under Uncle Sun Yu's threat, stood cautiously outside the door, waiting to be summoned at any time.
"Cough cough... Pfft..."
After a series of treatments, Xu Suiyan coughed twice and then suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.
The next moment, his complexion gradually became rosy, and his breathing became much smoother.
"Young Master, who injured you like this?"
Putting away the silver needles, Ruan Lingyue tenderly took out a damp towel and personally wiped the cold sweat from Xu Suiyan's forehead.
"After the examination just now, I found that you have many hidden injuries in your body. The person who did this used a very strange method that I can't figure out."
Xu Suiyan shook her head: "I don't know who this person is either. He attacked me right away when we first met, and I was completely caught off guard."
Sun Yushu's hoarse voice rang out from the side: "Pei Xingnan and Huang Gandang died at this man's hands in one move. I have never seen such a powerful person."
Xu Suiyan sighed, "Uncle Huang and Uncle Pei died because of me. I have wronged them both in this life."
Sun Yushu: "Your Highness, please don't say that. They should feel honored to die for you."
Xu Suiyan said with annoyance, "But I don't remember when I offended this person. You should know that I, Xu Suiyan, have always liked to make friends with heroes from all walks of life and rarely make enemies with anyone."
Ruan Lingyue said, "Fortunately, the person who made the move was extremely exhausted, and it seems that he transferred some kind of internal energy to the other person, otherwise you and the young master would not have been able to escape this person's clutches at all."
Xu Suiyan was startled upon hearing this: "You mean, this person wasn't in a good state at all when he attacked me?"
Ruan Lingyue nodded, then suggested, "Young Master, you should return to the Holy Domain as soon as possible. The outer domains are not safe at all now."
Xu Suiyan shook his head: "No, there's still no satisfactory outcome regarding Jiang Qingluan's matter. If I go back like this, that deadbeat old man will definitely not let me off the hook."
Ruan Lingyue: "What exactly is the grudge between Jiang Qingluan and the Xu family?"
"It's a long story, let's not go into it." Xu Suiyan stretched and yawned. "I'm hungry, is there anything to eat?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Uncle Sun Yu immediately pulled the manor owner's daughter inside.
"My young master is hungry, hurry up and cook!"
"But I...can't cook..."
The girl was trembling with fear.
These guys stormed into their own estate and took over like cuckoos, kidnapping the whole family like bandits.
But the young master on the bed clearly had a kind face; he didn't look like a bad person at all.
"If you can't cook, what use are you!"
Enraged, Sun Yushu planned to kill the girl with a single blow.
"Uncle Sun, stop."
Xu Suiyan stopped him.
"Don't frighten this beautiful young lady. Let me talk to her. Don't be afraid, young lady. Come here to me."
The girl timidly walked to Xu Suiyan's side, her eyes filled with fear and apprehension as she looked at him.
"Sit down, don't be afraid, I won't hurt you."
By the time the girl sat down on the bed, Ruan Lingyue and Uncle Sun Yu had already retreated to the guest table, both revealing a playful smile.
