Changsun Lingyue, who was originally immersed in her own world and felt abandoned, despised and disgusted by everyone, became more angry when she heard Caiyue's words.
"Miss, please don't be like this! Listen to what this servant is telling you."
Caiyue's voice became lower and lower, and the hostility on Changsun Lingyue's face slowly dissipated.
She hugged her knees and thought seriously about what Caiyue said.
There is some truth to that.
She is now hated by everyone, and if she wants to fight for everything, she can only rely on herself.
No matter what she became, Changsun Li never abandoned her. Even after she lost the competition, he still stayed with her. In fact, she should not be dissatisfied.
If I follow his advice and go to Hanshan Temple to practice asceticism, it will only benefit me.
Thinking of this, she said in a weak voice, "Go tell Dad that I agree."
"Okay." Caiyue walked out of the room briskly. When she reached the door, she stopped and looked back at her.
She was also worried about whether there would be any retribution for betraying Changsun Lingyue, but she wanted to live well more!
That day, she watched the disgusting insects bite through her flesh and slowly wriggle into her blood vessels...
She would wake up from nightmares every night and stare at her arms in disgust and fear.
She didn't know where the disgusting worm had crawled to along her blood vessels, and she really just wanted to survive.
Changsun Lingyue did not notice anything unusual about Caiyue. She just stared at a corner with hatred in her eyes, her mind completely blank.
Hearing that Changsun Lingyue had agreed to go to Hanshan Temple for meditation, Changsun Li breathed a sigh of relief.
He knew that Ling Yue was still the obedient and sensible Ling Yue.
She has been stuck in a rut recently, but when she figures it out, she is still the gentle and generous Ling Yue.
Changsun Lingyue set off for Hanshan Temple around noon.
It was already afternoon when Qu Li received the news.
It was beyond her expectation that Changsun Lingyue agreed to go to Hanshan Temple so readily.
She touched the sandalwood hairpin again, wondering where Feng Yi might be now.
As she expected, before the imperial edict conferring the title of empress arrived at the Minister of War's residence, many people handed in visiting cards, wanting to visit Ayi Na. Harley followed Qu Li's instructions and rejected all the visiting cards. He also asked the housekeeper to say that a banquet would be held in a while.
At night, Qu Li was feeding the little bug with the little emperor's blood, and Lao Mo passed the message to her.
Changsun Chi was escorting Changsun Lingsi and was almost reaching the imperial city. They hadn't encountered any ambushes along the way, which made her feel at ease.
Qu Li now regretted not letting Hu Dan follow Feng Yi when he left.
Two days later, Changsun Lingsi finally returned to the imperial city.
The boy's eyes were as sharp as a hawk, and his face was dark from having been in exile for so long.
On the way, Chang Sun Chi had already told him what had happened recently.
When he saw Qu Li for the first time, although he did not talk to her incessantly like others did, he still gave her a faint smile.
"Cousin, don't mind it. This kid is just like that! Cold on the outside but kind on the inside." Chang Sun Wu explained to her embarrassedly.
"nothing."
Although Changsun Lingsi had a cold expression on his face, Qu Li could see that his eyes were very clear.
"Why can't I see Lingyue?" Changsun Lingsi looked around and asked.
On the way back with Changsun Chi, he also heard people talking about Changsun Lingyue.
Unlike before when they were all praising her, he could sense the contempt in their words.
If it weren't for Chang Sun Chi's pressure, and he knew that he could come back only because of Qu Li, he would have rushed up and blown their heads off long ago.
"I sent Lingyue to Hanshan Temple for meditation." Changsun Li said.
Changsun Lingsi lowered the corners of his lips and looked at him deeply.
"What are you looking at?" Chang Sun Wu said in a cold voice.
"Nothing." Changsun Lingsi said in a hoarse voice.
Chang Sun Wu said again, "Go take a bath. I'll take you to pay your respects to your grandfather later."
"Grandfather doesn't live here?"
A trace of unnaturalness flashed across the faces of Changsun Lingrui and others.
"What's wrong?"
Not only Changsun Lingsi, but even the rough man Changsun Chi noticed something was wrong.
"Go to the bathroom first, you'll know in a moment." Chang Sun Wu's tone left no room for negotiation.
Zhang Sunchi frowned, "Old Three, what on earth happened?"
Zhang Sunli's face was filled with guilt, "Brother, it's all my fault for not teaching Lingyue well."
Changsun Lingsi, who had returned, looked at me with a deep expression when he heard this.
He went to the bathroom again in silence.
After hearing everything that had happened, Chang Sun Chi slammed his palm on the table and said, "Dad loves Ling Yue the most. How could she do this? Is this something a human could do?"
Chang Sun Wu clenched his fist, placed it against his lips and coughed lightly.
Chang Sun Chi glanced at the uneasy Chang Sun Li and opened his mouth: "Second brother, this matter is not your fault! Forget it, let's talk about it after we see Dad."
Chang Sun Wu whispered, "Are you planning to go see Dad like this, exhausted and exhausted?"
"Just wipe it off. It's not like Dad hasn't seen me come back from the martial arts arena covered in sweat!"
Chang Sun Wu: “…”
If you don't care about your appearance, just say that you don't care about your appearance. Why do you have to use your dad as a shield?
Changsun Lingsi came to the front hall, "Uncle, Second Uncle, Dad, I'm fine now."
Chang Sun Wu nodded: "Brother, Ling Si, let's go!"
Along the way, everyone tacitly kept silent. The carriage wheels rolled over the bluestone slabs, making a rumbling sound.
After leaving the city gate, the road began to bumpy.
Changsun Lingsi's eyes were always on Qu Li's face.
Noticing that he was secretly observing her, Qu Li looked over indifferently.
Their eyes met, and Changsun Lingsi quickly looked away.
"You kid, even though you know your cousin is beautiful, you can't look at her so presumptuously." Chang Sun Chi reminded.
"My cousin looks quite similar to Lingyue." Changsun Lingsi said something with a profound meaning, and then kept silent.
A strange atmosphere spread in the carriage.
Qu Li always felt that the look Changsun Lingsi gave him just now seemed full of hostility.
She didn't want to think too badly of others, and she always believed in fighting against enemies with soldiers and covering up the damage with earth, so she didn't think about it anymore.
Changsun Lingsi didn't look at Qu Li again along the way, but just lowered his head and looked at his fist.
Because he is a relatively introverted person, no one thinks there is anything wrong with him being like this.
The carriage stopped, Changsun Chi jumped out and was about to help Qu Li get off the carriage, but Changsun Wu slapped his hand away.
Zhang Sun Chi glared at me with a pair of eyes as bright as copper bells, and shouted angrily, "Old Third, why did you slap my hand away?"
"You stink so much. My cousin is a fairy. Aren't you afraid of making her faint from the stench?"
"I wiped my hands!"
"That doesn't change the fact that you're smelly and dirty." Chang Sun Wu didn't give Chang Sun Chi any face at all. After saying that, he looked at Qu Li with a smile and said, "Cousin, I'll help you get off the carriage."
