Chapter 41 The Daughter of Heaven
Back and forth, there was always that strange voice, neither male nor female, ringing in my ears.
"If I had such an androgynous voice, I would have banged my head against the wall and died. How dare you talk to me in my ear?"
The mist paused noticeably.
Is this what she is focusing on right now?
After a moment, the weird voice sounded again.
"This is the price you pay for your recklessness."
Qiao Wanyan was calm, "You mean, my sudden fainting but being able to hear all the noises outside is the price I paid for hurting Qiao Yihuan?"
The mist did not answer her words, "A green leaf should have the self-awareness of a green leaf. Acting recklessly will only make you pay the price. If you insist on not listening to my advice, you will only sleep longer and longer in the future, until you will never wake up."
Qiao Wanyan lowered her eyes, and a hint of fluctuation finally appeared in her calm expression.
Mist seemed pleased with her reaction, "This is your destiny."
"Fate?" Qiao Wanyan asked back, "Qiao Yihuan is destined to be a red flower with a perfect ending, and I am destined to be the green leaf that sets off him. But I never believe in fate."
The strange voice in the mist sounded again, "Qiao Yihuan is a daughter of the Heavenly Dao who is protected by the Heavenly Dao halo. She is gentle, kind, and has good morals. Even if she suffers great injustice, she will repay evil with virtue. Such a person is destined to have a happy life full of merits and virtues and get the best ending."
Qiao Wanyan paused, and a teasing smile appeared on the corner of her lips. "Being gentle and kind, repaying evil with kindness? As long as you are a human, there will always be a dark side."
"As you said, she has all the good qualities. If she becomes a vicious person like me, will the heaven you mentioned still favor her?"
The mist suddenly stopped floating and stopped talking.
The smile on Qiao Wanyan's lips became even more intense.
She was right.
After a long time, the mist spoke again: "You will never be better than her."
Seems a little frustrated.
Qiao Wanyan was not annoyed, she just smiled and said, "I don't believe it."
Qiao Wanyan clearly saw that the fog seemed to be smoking.
In the second half of the night, Qiao Wanyan suddenly woke up.
Zi Yuan hadn't slept yet. The lights in the warm room were brightly on and she had been guarding by the bed.
"Miss! Are you okay? You scared me to death!"
Zi Yuan cried with tears in her eyes, feeling extremely anxious. But why did the young lady smile when she woke up? Could she have suddenly become stupid?
She stretched out her fingers and said, "Miss, can you see what number this is?"
Qiao Wanyan: “….”
"I'm fine."
Zi Yuan cried with joy, "Miss, you suddenly fainted, and Doctor Liu came but couldn't figure out why. Miss, you don't know how scary you were at that time, otherwise how could you still laugh."
Qiao Wanyan beckoned her over with her finger, and gently touched the top of her head before saying, "Of course I'm happy because I know something worth being happy about."
Zi Yuan was puzzled and tilted her head, "Miss, please don't comfort me. But your sudden fainting, is it related to Qiao Yihuan? Last time you said that you couldn't kill Qiao Yihuan, I always thought you were joking. But........."
But when the young lady fainted, she inexplicably felt that it was related to Qiao Yihuan.
Qiao Wanyan said, "Go get me a bowl of yogurt. I feel like eating something."
Zi Yuan immediately nodded and left.
At the moment, it was absolutely impossible for me to kill Qiao Yihuan. Just by hurting her, I fainted for so long for no reason. If it was as that androgynous thing said, I would faint and not wake up, but I could hear all the sounds from the outside world. Wouldn't it be worse than death?
Qiao Yihuan must not be moved, but what if she changes herself?
Watching the people who are supposed to love and care for her abandon her one by one, will she still be gentle and kind from beginning to end?
Qiao Wanyan suddenly chuckled.
Definitely not.
Before the prince abandoned her, she had already pushed herself out to protect him out of impulsive jealousy.
After half a month, the wounds on Qiao Wanyan's body had scabbed over. The Jin family was a great imperial merchant, so naturally there were many rare medicinal herbs in the mansion.
Piles of them were sent to the warm room, and Qiao Wanyan's complexion became noticeably rosy.
At that time, in the East Palace study
He Zhiyu lowered his eyes and looked at the memorial in his hand, his handsome and noble expression becoming increasingly sinister.
Jing Yuan said: "Your Highness, the Emperor is so unfair. As a prince who controls the military power, the Emperor treated him so lightly when he returned to the capital without permission. He just put him in solitary confinement, and in Prince Jing's mansion. What kind of punishment is this?"
"How outrageous!" He Zhiyu scolded.
Jing Yuan immediately knelt on the ground and said, "I know I was wrong. I was disrespectful to the emperor."
He Zhiyu frowned and looked away, "Father has his own reasons for what he did. If I hear you being so unruly again, you should go to the military camp and have some good training!"
Jing Yuan nodded, "Yes."
Jing Yuan felt sorry for His Highness because He had never been liked by the Emperor since He was a child. Although this was also due to the bad relationship between the Empress and the Emperor.
He once heard from the older generation in the palace that the emperor and Prince Jing's biological mother were childhood sweethearts, but because of her family background, she had to become a concubine.
Later, the emperor ascended the throne and conferred the title of Imperial Concubine on her.
At first, the emperor and empress treated each other with respect, but later the empress schemed to almost cause the imperial concubine to die in childbirth, and the relationship between the emperor and empress reached a freezing point.
Prince Jing is the son of the favorite concubine. Even though the imperial concubine died of illness, the emperor has been extremely fond of Prince Jing for so many years. In fact, if it weren't for the incident with the imperial concubine's mother's family, your highness would not be the master of the Eastern Palace now.
He loved the concubine and her family for so many years. Even though he later lost his position as crown prince due to the influence of the concubine's mother's family, he was still sent to Beiming City to be given military power and a title.
Now, he has left the capital without permission and has only been put in solitary confinement in Prince Jing's mansion. How is this different from no punishment?
Do you blame him for saying that the emperor is partial?
His Highness had obviously handled the Qingzhou refugee issue very well, but because Miss Qiao had sent food to help the country and the emperor, she almost lost her life because she blocked an arrow for His Highness and was reprimanded by the Emperor.
His merits and demerits offset each other, and he gained nothing at all, and was even scolded by the emperor.
Even in front of so many ministers, he really felt sorry for His Highness.
A layer of frost appeared on He Zhiyu's dignified and extraordinary face.
After a long time, he forced himself to calm down.
"Jingyuan, prepare some things and go visit Yihuan's mother."
Jing Yuan nodded. Even though His Highness was in such a bad mood, he still thought of taking care of Miss Qiao's mother. It would be great if Miss Qiao was in the capital now, which would also comfort His Highness.
At this time, a servant came in and reported, "Your Highness, the Queen Mother asks you to enter the palace immediately."
