This time, Ning Yue did not dodge.
He let the apple core hit him.
The car sped past Ning Yue.
Ning Yue sneered, her blood-red eyes fixed on that vulgar face.
Without hesitation, she turned around, went upstairs, walked towards the woman's dormitory, kicked open the door, grabbed a stool, and smashed it at the woman.
The woman was knocked to the ground, her nose bleeding profusely.
Ning Yue straddled her and grabbed her, giving her a good beating. "You fucking threw things around like that, you fucking acted like a jerk, you fucking bullied me."
Screams and footsteps echoed from the dormitory building.
Ning Yue looked at the woman who was cowering and trembling after being hit, her eyes filled with fear.
Tears streaming down my face...
No one knows what she went through during those lost times.
In the desolate sea of time, we are all like lone boats, waiting at any moment for a wave to capsize us, to sink us, and to go down!
...
Time flies.
In the blink of an eye, the news that the Ninth Prince was going to marry the Ninth Prince's wife spread throughout the capital.
Everyone says that the Ninth Prince's wife is lucky. She rose from a commoner to become the most favored Ninth Prince's wife.
Her story, like that of Consort Hong, became a favorite tale among ordinary people.
The story of a sparrow turning into a phoenix always gives people hope.
Linghu Lan was married off from the imperial palace, with a magnificent bridal procession stretching for miles. The bridal sedan chair circled the capital, attracting countless onlookers.
Li Ye rode a tall horse, dressed in red. His youthful face was innocent yet proud, radiating a sense of contentment at finally possessing something and having his wish fulfilled.
That evening, when he lifted the veil, he looked at Linghu Lan and exclaimed in admiration, as if Linghu Lan were the most beautiful woman in the world.
A beautiful woman in red candlelight, captivating in her red dress.
Linghu Lan looked at Li Ye with expectant eyes.
With a smile in her bright eyes, Li Ye happily said, "Tonight, we can finally watch the stars without any worries. Just the two of us will watch the stars all night long. No one is allowed to follow us or rush us."
Linghu Lan: "..."
She reached out and touched Li Ye's forehead.
Li Ye looked up at her hand and asked curiously, "What are you doing?"
"Do you think you're an idiot?"
"Even if you're stupid, you can still see the stars."
Linghu Lan: "..."
Even if I were a fool, I would still remember that I liked you.
Linghu Lan: "..." I forgive you.
After their marriage, the two would occasionally visit the emperor and Consort Hong in the palace during the day, and watch the stars and the moon at night, living a very carefree life.
The crown prince gradually lowered his guard.
Occasionally, when they bump into each other in the palace, he can act like an older brother and exchange a few words with Li Ye.
However, sometimes he would stare blankly at Linghu Lan's back. Such a woman was indeed stunningly beautiful and intoxicating.
What's even better is that she comes from a rural background and doesn't have a grand vision, so she won't encourage her husband to fight for power, which is truly reassuring.
What would I do if I were in Li Ye's position?
He felt that he would fight to the end and would never ruin his future for a woman, even if that woman was so beautiful that she could bring ruin to the country.
Days passed by one by one.
Finally, one day, the emperor fell seriously ill.
He fell ill on the emperor's bed and never recovered.
The court officials, the crown prince, and the princes surrounded the emperor, waiting for him to breathe his last before announcing the new emperor's ascension to the throne.
The crown prince was overjoyed, but carefully concealed his emotions.
This was his own father passing away; he should have been saddened, but he couldn't feel any sadness at all.
