"Ru'er!"
"Look at me..."
"Ru'er!"
The heart-wrenching sound brought everyone outside inside.
They ran in in terror!
Then they saw Wu Ling, his eyes bloodshot, holding Lin Ru, who was barely breathing, on the bed!
Everyone rushed over to check.
But they were all knocked to the ground by the crazed Wu Ling!
"No one can take her away from me. I don't believe it. You're still here, aren't you? You were just lying to me, weren't you?"
"Ru'er! I knew you wouldn't leave."
"You won't leave..."
He rubbed his face against Lin Ru's face; he had gone mad!
Everyone thought that when Wu Ling said "leave," he meant "die!"
They felt like they were going to die of fright.
They split into several groups, all in a panic, and rushed off to find the person!
When the Bai family and Quan Jinyu rushed over, they saw Wu Ling, who was already somewhat mentally impaired, holding Lin Ru with her eyes closed!
He was talking nonsense.
No one can go over there.
"No! You don't understand her, and that's not what you want!"
"She's the only one I want!"
"Only I know she's different..."
Looking at the scene before them, Wu Juan and Wu Fei thought to themselves, "This is very similar to how I went into a state of demonic possession before."
"It seems their young clan leader has suffered a relapse of his old illness due to some kind of shock!"
"They tentatively stepped forward, but were thrown away by a tremendous force."
Finally, Quan Jinyu cautiously said, "Wu Ling! Release His Majesty first, and let the imperial physician come and see what's wrong with him?"
"Perhaps His Majesty never left at all!"
"I just drank too much and felt unwell, so I passed out."
The Bai family members quickly echoed this sentiment.
"Wu Ling! We know you're worried, but we, as His Majesty's family, are even more worried. So let's have the imperial physician come and take a look. Holding His Majesty like this won't make him better."
Wu Ling glared fiercely at the Bai family members, "No! The person you're worried about isn't her!"
"You're only worried about this body! Just this physical form..."
The Bai family was somewhat confused by what he said, but they knew that Wu Ling was just worried and didn't take it to heart. They simply offered him gentle words of comfort.
In the end, he let go and allowed them to conduct various checks; he was gambling on a possibility...
But the imperial physicians couldn't figure out the cause of His Majesty's continued coma.
Moreover, those people outside are eyeing us covetously.
I don't know what schemes they were plotting.
In their eyes, Empress Lin Ru was not just an emperor, but also a god of death. If this god of death fell, Fengtian was not so invincible after all!
Quan Jinyu quickly instructed everyone to keep the news under wraps.
Those kings and their envoys must stay for three more days and pretend that nothing has happened during these three days, otherwise His Majesty's painstaking efforts will be in vain.
So, although everyone was worried, they could only pretend that nothing was wrong and stay at their posts.
Except for Wu Ling!
He stayed by Lin Ru's side day and night, speaking in languages they couldn't understand at all.
When the envoys left, everyone mustered their spirits and went to see them off.
Only Xu Yixuan sensed something was wrong with this group of people; Lin Ru couldn't possibly not show up at such a crucial moment.
Moreover, although these people seem to be doing nothing wrong on the surface, there is always a sense that they are trying to cover something up.
Especially Wu Ling, who had an ambiguous relationship with Lin Ru, he hadn't seen him since the day of the coronation ceremony.
I'm afraid something has happened to Lin Ru.
He knew he had no right to ask, and even if he did, no one would give him an answer. But he was worried, worried that something had happened to the person he had been thinking about day and night. Even though that person already had someone else in their heart, he still wanted to see him one more time. So, while everyone was seeing off the envoy, he broke away from the main group and quietly sneaked into the imperial city.
Just as he arrived at Lin Ru's palace without any major incident, he carefully climbed the wall, looking around cautiously, and then began to sprinkle sleeping potions on the heads of the maids and servants!
After watching those people collapse to the ground, he climbed up the wall, intending to use it as leverage to jump down.
Then I saw my eyes meet a pair of beautiful eyes!
It was Lin Ru, who ran out wearing her pajamas and barefoot!
She looked at Xu Yixuan on the wall, her eyes filled with terror!
Especially when you see the maids lying haphazardly on the ground!
He just ran barefoot into the yard.
He picked up the broom next to him and held it across his chest.
His eyes were full of vigilance.
"Who are you? I'm telling you, don't come any closer. I know martial arts. If you come any closer, don't blame me for being ruthless."
Xu Yixuan was somewhat surprised. This person in front of him didn't recognize him? And judging from his expression, he wasn't faking it, especially the fear in his eyes and his feigned composure!
He quickly jumped in, "Your Majesty, please listen to me, I'm not a bad person, we're friends."
"I don't know what happened to you?"
"But please believe me, I would never hurt you."
Lin Ru tilted her head in confusion. "What nonsense are you talking about? What Empress?"
"You are a truly wicked person. You not only want to harm me, but also the lives of my entire family. If others find out, they will think I am some kind of traitor!"
Xu Yixuan watched as she, though trembling with fear, still bravely held the broom, her eyes filled with vigilance, as if she wanted to beat him to death!
For some reason, the empress in front of him miraculously overlapped with the empress in his dreams!
It's as if it were a single person.
The person in his dream was the same; although she was very weak and repeatedly found herself in danger, she never gave up and always tried to find a solution.
If the previous emperor was like a god, looking down from above at all the ants below!
The Emperor before me is like a weed, tenacious and unyielding. No matter how much wind and rain he endures, or how many people he suffers, he can always rise again with perseverance.
He smiled!
That smile was so warm and welcoming that Lin Ru couldn't help but lower her guard.
She had always lived in the village and had never seen such a handsome man before. His smile, in particular, was like a gentle breeze, soothing her anxiety and making her feel inexplicably at ease.
Xu Yixuan continued to explain, "I really am your friend, and you really are Her Majesty the Empress. By the way, I also know that your mother's name is Bai Wanrong, and your younger brother was previously named Lin Bai, Lin Mo, and Lin Qing, but now he has taken his mother's surname and changed his name to Bai Youyang, Bai Youmo, and Bai Youqing. Your previous name was Lin Ru, but a few days ago at the coronation ceremony, you personally changed your name to Bai Youru!"
Bai Youru's current memory is still stuck when her grandparents drove her family into a thatched hut, and her mother was about to die!
