She coughed lightly, her cheeks flushed with a sickly red. She stroked her forehead and said with a smile, "Then I woke up."
Lan Ye: “…”
He stared at Lan Shuang with a serious look, as if trying to determine whether her words were true or false.
Lan Shuang also looked at him with a complicated look in her eyes, "Sir, don't let hatred blind your eyes and play with fire."
"What did you say?!"
This sentence suddenly touched Lan Ye's reverse scale. His expression changed instantly, his eyes were sinister, and his invisible aura was fully released. Yueying was shocked: "Sir!"
"Get out!" Lan Ye shouted without even turning his head. Yueying looked at Lan Shuang with concern and hesitantly advised, "The young lady is still very weak. My Lord, please don't get carried away and do something you'll regret."
Upon hearing this, Lan Shuang couldn't help but give Yueying a thumbs up, "Young man, you are a true warrior!"
"Get out!" Lan Ye didn't want to hear anything and raised his hand to push Yueying away.
Although he showed mercy in this palm strike, Yueying was completely defenseless and her martial arts skills were not as good as his. "Puff——"
He took a few steps back, hit the table and knelt down, unable to hold back a mouthful of blood.
"Yueying, just go out. There's no need to persuade her anymore." Lan Shuang couldn't bear it.
Yueying frowned, wiped the blood from the corner of her lips with the back of her hand, looked at Lan Shuang with pity, stood up and walked out.
As soon as the door closed, Lan Ye approached step by step. Lan Shuang leaned weakly against the head of the bed and looked at him.
The next moment, Lan Ye's hand suddenly grabbed Lan Shuang's neck with such force that Lan Shuang's face turned red instantly.
Ke Lan Shuang didn't resist, and instead complained to 888 in a humorous way, "What kind of neck-strangling buff did I get in this life?"
Why do all of you like to pinch me so much?
888 said helplessly: "Host, your life is already gone, so why don't you think about these nonsense?"
Lan Shuang chuckled: "Really?"
She neither resisted nor spoke, her dark eyes gradually filled with mist, but even so, her gaze never left Lan Ye for a moment.
Lan Ye was silent for a moment, the veins on his forehead rising and falling. Finally, he suddenly loosened his hand and threw Lan Shuang to the inside of the bed. Fortunately, the bedding was soft and thick enough, so it didn't hurt after the fall.
Lan Shuang leaned over the quilt and coughed heart-wrenchingly.
Lan Ye asked in a hoarse voice: "What did you know?"
Lan Shuang didn't even turn her head. "You don't know anything. You're just feeling guilty."
"Say that again?!" The anger was rekindling. To outsiders, Lan Shuang was simply courting death.
But Lan Shuang wanted to add fuel to the fire. She turned around and sneered, "I've lived with you for over ten years. Do you think there's anything you can hide from me? Have I ever betrayed you? I've been playing dumb for so many years. What do you think it's for?"
Lan Ye's fingertips trembled, and his heart felt like it was being pinched, "You..."
Lan Shuang lowered her eyes. "Even if you don't like to hear it, I still have to say these words. Believe it or not, my dream is real, and what I said is true. If you insist on supporting the Fifth Prince, you will be doomed."
Lan Ye stood up and looked at her sinisterly, not knowing what he was thinking.
Lan Shuang slowly lay back down, pulled up the quilt, closed her eyes, and said directly: "It's getting late, please go back, sir."
Lan Ye turned and left. When he reached the door, Lan Shuang said in a deep voice, "Tomorrow I will move to the prayer platform to reflect on myself. Let's all calm down."
Lan Ye paused slightly, "As you wish."
Only after his footsteps disappeared outside the door did Lan Shuang open her eyes and press her chest. There was still some of the original owner's emotions lingering there, making her feel a little uncomfortable.
Lan Shuang couldn't help but sigh, "You can't warm up a person like this, and he won't listen to others' advice. He won't regret it until he hits a wall. In that case, let's wait and see. I promised you that I would spare his life, and I will definitely not break my promise, don't worry."
As soon as he finished speaking, the depression in his heart dissipated a lot.
Lan Shuang sighed deeply and finally fell asleep peacefully.
Before going to bed, 888 notified: "Dear host, the female supporting character's resentment value has been reduced by ten. Good night~"
…
When Lan Shuang woke up again, it was bright outside and no one called her. She stretched, but still felt pain all over, the pain coming from the gaps between her bones.
"Can you find out what kind of poison this is?"
Lan Shuang sat on the edge of the bed in a daze.
888: "It's quite complicated. It's made by the Imperial Master. It takes a lot of time to test. How about exchanging it for a detoxification pill and try it?"
Lan Shuang thought about how few points she had and shook her head: "Forget it, I'll get it out of the Imperial Master sooner or later."
888: "The host's points are still sufficient. Are you really not going to consider it?"
Lan Shuang decisively refused: "No."
"Okay." 888 felt quite regretful.
She stood up and called the maid to help her pack her things. She packed two boxes and had them loaded onto the carriage. After breakfast, Lan Shuang asked, "Is the Imperial Master here?"
The maid shook her head: "My lord has gone to the palace early in the morning and has not yet returned home."
"Well, go tell the housekeeper, I'm leaving."
"yes."
…
The prayer platform is located in the east of the city, a bit remote, with no people living nearby and it is very quiet. It is only opened during major festivals in spring and autumn for sacrifices and prayers.
Normally, as a saint, Lan Shuang should live here, but the current emperor, thinking that the national teacher has no children and sympathizing with his loneliness, often grants Lan Shuang the grace to return to live in the national teacher's mansion.
Lan Shuang will not be forced to return to the prayer platform, but she can go back at any time.
The prayer platform is cleaned daily and is very spotless, so Lan Shuang can move in directly. Her room is spacious and bright, with elegant furnishings. It is not much different from the Imperial Master's Mansion, except that there are not as many spies as in the Imperial Master's Mansion, and the guards only guard outside and dare not walk around in the backyard.
The maid thought that Lan Shuang had moved out because she had quarreled with the Imperial Master, and that she must be in a bad mood. After putting down her things, she was about to comfort Lan Shuang when she saw Lan Shuang picking flowers in the yard with a smile on her face.
maid:"……"
Why does something seem wrong?
Lan Shuang picked some wild flowers and put them in a vase, then walked out without stopping for a moment. The backyard was connected to the back mountain, where there was a large maple forest. At a glance, the maple forest looked like fire, which was very pleasing to the eye.
She stood there and watched for a while, then suddenly she understood. She said something to the guard and went up the mountain.
The mountain behind this side is a low mountain where people hunt regularly. There are no wild animals there, so it is very safe and the mountain road is very smooth, so the guards let her play by herself without worry.
It's impossible for a living person to roll down the stairs, right?
Lan Shuang walked up along the bluestone slabs and found a delicate pavilion halfway up the mountain. She was in poor health and weak after her illness, so she wanted to go in and rest.
As soon as she turned the corner, she saw someone standing in the pavilion with his back to her, looking at something.
The sound of Lan Shuang stepping on fallen leaves also reached the man's ears. He turned around and was stunned. "It's you?"
