Xiao Lingling looked at the scales on her hand, frowned slightly, then pinched a piece of fish scale at her wrist, gritted her teeth, and pulled it off with a sudden force.
There was no bleeding, but the pain still made Xiao Lingling sweat profusely.
You have to know that in her current human body, pulling out a wisp of her soul is actually equivalent to pulling out scales. The pain is naturally much more severe than really pulling out scales.
But she didn't have time to think about it, and quickly put the scales close to Pei Huan's eyebrows. The scales flashed red and then disappeared, directly merging into Pei Huan's body.
This will not only improve Pei Huan's luck and turn misfortune into good fortune, but even if he really encounters an irreversible disaster, the little bell will be able to sense it.
However, this will weaken Xiao Lingling's spirit for a period of time, but as long as she does more good deeds, the merits can be slowly made up for.
Little Lingling lay back down on the bed, her face covered in sweat, her mouth opening and closing as she gasped for breath, like a dehydrated fish thrown onto the shore. It took her a long time to recover.
"Huh, if I wasn't worried that there were still bad people trying to harm my mother, father, and the others, I wouldn't have to feel so bad. Humph! When I find out who's behind this evil deed, I'll strip you of all your luck and make you miserable for the rest of your life!"
Little Bell muttered softly, but she was in pain and tired, and fell asleep in a daze before she could say a few words.
But what she didn't know was that in a small courtyard thousands of miles away, a man and a woman were plotting something late at night.
They were talking excitedly when suddenly the man shivered as if he was cold.
"Master, are you cold? Let me get you a cloak!"
The man frowned and raised his hand, "No need, it's probably just the wind. Let's talk about the important business first! The Queen's previous poison was cured, which must be related to Jiang Xinian.
This Divine Doctor Sect is really annoying. With them around, it will be difficult to accomplish anything. So, you take two teams and set off to the Divine Doctor Sect immediately. This time, find a way to eradicate the Divine Doctor Sect completely!
Also, continue to track down Jiang Xinian. It would be best if you could find a way to capture him alive, but if that's not possible, just kill him outright.
You know my habits in employing people. If I fail again, you know what the consequences will be!"
The woman's face turned pale and she immediately knelt on one knee. "Yes! I obey your orders and will not let you down!"
After saying that, the man waved his hand, and the woman didn't dare to stay any longer and immediately turned around and left...
Early in the morning, Pei Huan was woken up by Yuehua. He sat up and saw that it was still not very bright outside. He asked quietly, "What time is it now?"
"Your Majesty, it's three quarters past three in the morning. It would be better for us to leave early to return to the capital. This way, we can avoid crowds and minimize our whereabouts."
Pei Huan nodded, looking at Xiao Lingling who was still sleeping soundly beside him, his eyes full of reluctance.
She bent down and kissed Xiao Lingling lightly on the forehead, then stood up quietly.
"Be quiet and don't wake her. Go get some pen and ink. I'll leave a letter for her."
Yuehua had thought of this a long time ago, so when Pei Huan said it, she immediately brought out the pen, ink, paper and inkstone from the table next to her.
Pei Huan went down barefoot, washed his hands simply, wrote a relatively short letter, and signed it with just the word "Huan".
After writing it, she put it in an envelope and placed it next to Xiao Lingling's pillow.
In order not to wake her up, Pei Huan had asked Yuehua to book an extra room for washing up last night.
So she put down the letter and prepared to leave, and before leaving she did not forget to tidy up the quilt for Xiao Lingling.
Although she was reluctant, she had no choice at the moment, so she turned around and prepared to go downstairs.
She originally thought that no one would come to see her off, but as soon as she came out of the room, Zhao and Huo were already standing at the door.
The two of them just smiled when they saw her.
Pei Huan was a little surprised, "What are you doing..."
Zhao smiled and handed her the bag in her hand, "Child, I know you will definitely get up early to leave for safety, so I specially sent you off.
You've given us so many gifts, I can't let you go back empty-handed, right?
I see that you are always covered with a blanket even in the summer, so I guess your legs are also afraid of the cold.
I don't have anything to give you, the farmer. This year we got two pieces of leather. The fur is very good and shiny.
I just made a fur throw and a set of knee pads, which I probably won't need now, but will be useful when the day breaks.
My cooking skills are not good, please don't despise me, just keep it!"
The bag was quite heavy, and it felt like it was hitting Pei Huan's heart when it was in her hand.
Her mother died early, and she hadn't felt this kind of motherly care for more than ten years. For a moment, her eyes were filled with tears.
Mrs. Huo handed a bundle to Yuehua, "Sister Huan, I don't have anything to give you. I see you like reading in your spare time, so here are a few rare books I collected, most of them are travelogues, I just want to see them for fun.
You can't travel around now, so take a look at this as a solace. Maybe you'll have the chance to see the scenery here in person in the future."
Pei Huan smiled, his eyes very gentle, "Okay, then I'll accept it! Thank you Aunt Zhao, thank you Sister Huo. You don't have to send more, I'll go wash up and leave.
I'll assure you of your safety when I return to Beijing. You must also take good care of yourselves. If anything happens, please let me know at any time!"
The two men nodded hurriedly and wanted to see her off, but there was a child in the room, so they didn't dare to go far.
When Pei Huan got on the carriage and prepared to leave, they could only wave at him through the window.
The carriage gradually moved away until no one could be seen. Only then did Pei Huan retract his hand waving outside the window.
She opened the package sent by Zhao and saw what was inside.
The fur used was snow-white fox skin, which was brought by Dabai when he went hunting. Seeing that the skin was good, Zhao specially tanned it and kept it.
The fox fur is soft and warm. The blanket is not big and hangs down just enough to protect your legs and feet on three sides.
The straps of the knee pads are quite long, making it convenient for her to adjust them herself. They are also double-sided and have a layer of fleece inside. Although she hasn't worn them, she knows they will definitely keep her warm in winter.
Looking at the fine stitches on it, Pei Huan couldn't help but shed tears.
Yuehua knew what she was thinking and quickly handed her a handkerchief. "My Lady, you must be missing the old lady."
Pei Huan nodded without saying anything.
Yuehua could only comfort her, "Don't cry, Madam. The old lady couldn't bear to see you in pain. In fact, it's better for the old lady to be gone. Her condition was so serious at that time that she couldn't even eat. She was only relying on medicine to keep herself going. She must have been in pain."
Rather than enduring like that, this way at least there is no pain. And the Empress is living well now, and the old lady is the happiest and most satisfied. "
This is Pei Huan's maid who came with her during her dowry and has been with her since she was a child. If it were someone else, they wouldn't dare to say this.
Although these words were not so pleasant to hear, Pei Huan knew that she was telling the truth, and the sadness in his heart also eased a little.
