Ning Dao Covered with Snow

Chapter 164 Parting Gift
Yan Ci Wan helped Ling Niang wipe the tears from her face, then took off his cloak, put it on her, and spoke softly.

"Revenge is only a goal in your life, not the end of your life. Don't let hatred occupy your entire world. Think about your mother and brother, as well as Uncle Shi and Xue. They are all protecting you at all costs. Their love for you is far more precious than hatred. Lingniang, go, leave here, from now on you will only live for yourself."

The warm and thick cloak wrapped Ling Niang completely, and she felt as if all the blood in her body had regained its temperature at this moment.

She looked at Yan Ci Wan with tears in her eyes, and in a trance she seemed to have returned to twenty-five years ago, when someone had encouraged her so gently. She couldn't help but murmur.

"You really look like her, not only in appearance, but also in the tone of your voice."

Yan Ciwan asked who it was?

"A female medical officer named Ning. She saved my life and my mother's life. She is a very good person."

Hearing others praising her mother, Yan Ciwan felt happier than if she were praised herself. She smiled with curved eyebrows and eyes: "What a coincidence, my last name happens to be Ning too. It seems that we are really destined to be together."

Lingniang was infected by her smile, and her tears gradually stopped. She hesitated to speak: "But Axue..."

"I asked A-Lu, and she said that the poison in Fuxue's body has almost dissipated, and she will wake up soon. She has no idea what happened back then, and she didn't participate in your revenge plan. She was innocent from beginning to end, and the Grand Master will not do anything to her."

Ling Niang said softly: "Thank you."

Yan Ciwan looked up at the sky and said with a smile: "Now that the snow has stopped, it's a good time to go down the mountain. It seems that even God thinks that you are not destined to die."

Lingniang looked at the world outside the door. She had never thought that she would have the opportunity to start over after taking revenge.

"By the way, this is for you." Yan Ciwan took out a silver ingot and a dozen copper coins from his purse and stuffed them all into Lingniang's hands.

Lingniang refused to take it, and Yan Ciwan simply held her hand and prevented her from returning the money.

"I am too poor now. I don't have much money on me. This is all I can give you. Please keep it. As for how you will live in the future, it depends on your own ability."

Lingniang held the silver coins that were still warm from her body temperature and felt her nose sore.

She hadn't felt kindness from a stranger in many years.

Finally, she accepted the money, and then she took out a small red purse from her arms.

"this is for you."

Yan Ciwan took the purse, opened it and saw a jade token inside.

She took out the jade token and saw a Buddha statue engraved on the front and densely packed scriptures on the back.

"What is this?" she asked.

Ling Niang said softly: "This is the Buddhist treasure in Lingdie Temple."

Yan Ciwan was greatly surprised: "Is this the legendary Buddha treasure that can make people's wishes come true?"

Ling Niang nodded first, then explained: "Although it is a Buddhist treasure, it is not as magical as the rumors say. In the past, Prince Renxian saved the people of Luzhou and ordered people to build the Lingdie Temple and the Monument of the Soul. The people of Luzhou were grateful for Prince Renxian's kindness and specially presented a pair of Buddha amulets carved from warm jade. One of the Buddha amulets was placed in the Lingdie Temple, and together with Prince Renxian's longevity tablet, it was worshipped and worshipped by the people every day. The other Buddha amulet was sent to Prince Renxian. It is said that Prince Renxian later gave the Buddha amulet to the Crown Princess. Outsiders did not know the inside story and thought that Prince Renxian had placed the treasure in the Lingdie Temple. The rumors became more and more outrageous, and the Buddha amulet was said to be a Buddhist treasure. What's even more outrageous is that many people really believed it."

Speaking of this, Lingniang thought of the Lian brothers and sisters. They had evil intentions towards Lingdie Temple because they believed the rumors about the Buddhist treasure.

Yan Ciwan asked: "This thing should be able to sell for a lot of money, why did you give it to me?"

"I heard that you are going to Chang'an. The mausoleum of Crown Prince Renxian and Crown Princess is near Chang'an. When you go to Chang'an, can you help me return this Buddha amulet to its owner?"

It turned out that this amulet was not given to her. Fortunately, Yan Ciwan was thick-skinned enough and was not embarrassed at all because of her self-conceit. She accepted the amulet and promised, "I will return it to its owner."

Time was running out and there was no time to delay any further. Ling Niang finally said, "Please help me tell Ah Xue to take good care of herself. If I have the chance in the future, I will come back to visit her."

Yan Ciwan nodded and said, "Okay."

Ling Niang took a deep breath and said, "My full name is Ye Lingge, Ning Ci, I hope we can meet again in the future."

After saying this, she turned around, stepped over the threshold, walked out of the villa that had trapped her for many years, and strode forward.

Ahead is a winding and rugged mountain road, but also a free and vast future.

Yan Ciwan’s blessing came from behind.

"Ye Lingge, have a safe journey, and see you again if we are lucky!"

The cold wind blew towards her, but Ye Lingge didn't feel cold at all. Warmth flowed in her heart.

She walked faster and faster, and finally she was running all the way towards an unknown future.

Yan Ciwan closed the side door, then turned around and walked back.

If A Niang were still alive in heaven, she would surely feel relieved knowing that the little girl she once saved had finally gotten rid of the shadow and started a new life.

Yan Ciwan walked briskly all the way back to Shaoguang Courtyard as quickly as possible, but saw an inner guard guarding outside the gate.

She paused, then quietly went around to the back, climbed over the wall and entered the yard.

At this moment, Xiao Wang and Chao Lu were dealing with Fu Bai's interrogation.

Fu Bai asked where Ning Ci was going?
Chaolu said that Ning Ci didn't sleep well last night, and he was still catching up on sleep in the house, so it was inconvenient for him to see outsiders.

Fu Bai didn't believe it and insisted on meeting Ning Ci.

He tried to force his way into the bedroom but was stopped by Xiao Wang and Uncle Jiu.

When the two sides were in a stalemate, the bedroom door was opened and Yan Ciwan, looking sleepy, walked out.

Although her clothes were properly dressed, her hair was all hanging down behind her, and it was obvious that she had just gotten out of bed and had not had time to comb her hair.

She yawned. "What happened?"

Xiao Wang and Chao Lu turned their heads and saw her appear, and they both breathed a sigh of relief.

Fu Bai looked her up and down and asked, "Have you been sleeping in the house all this time?"

"Yes, I had a nightmare last night and slept very uneasily. When I woke up in the morning, I felt very dizzy, so I slept a little longer. Why do you, the Internal Guard, have to ask about such a small matter?" Yan Ciwan looked confused.

"He Chunzhuo and four others were assassinated, and the murderer was Lingniang."

Yan Ciwan was extremely surprised: "Isn't Lingniang dead?"

Fu Bai stared at her: "Don't play dumb anymore, He Chunzhuo has already said that it was you who took Lingniang away, you and Lingniang are in cahoots!"

Yan Ciwan's heart skipped a beat. He Chunzhuo wasn't dead yet? !
