After His Majesty's rebirth, he personally taught the queen to abuse the scumbag

His hand gently stroked the scars on Cheng Mingran's body: "I'll ask someone to help you remove these scars." He said softly.

Cheng Mingran looked back at the scar on her shoulder: "It doesn't hurt anymore."

"It may not hurt, but these scars are an eyesore. It's better to remove them. Didn't you love beauty the most before? Leaving these will affect your mood when you look at them." Ji Lingzhou said.

After hearing this, Cheng Mingran lowered her eyes and said, "It's an eyesore. Your Majesty, do you think it's ugly?" Her voice sounded much lower than before.

Ji Lingzhou's heart tightened when he heard her tone: "No, I don't think it's ugly, but I'm afraid... these scars will affect you."

Seeing these scars on your body every day will inevitably remind her of some unpleasant experiences, so it would be best if they could be removed.

But Cheng Mingran refused again.

"I appreciate your majesty's kindness, but it's not necessary. Some things must have a meaning of existence. Since they are left, let them stay. They will disappear when they should. Things that cannot disappear... can be made to disappear, but it doesn't mean they never existed." Cheng Mingran hinted at something.

Ji Lingzhou felt inexplicably uncomfortable when he heard her words. How could he not hear the other meanings contained in these words? Some things can never be forgotten and can never be passed.

The past never represents the past. It is just a scab that has formed, but it doesn’t mean it won’t hurt anymore.

Perhaps because of what happened, Ji Lingzhou no longer had the interest he had just now, and now he only felt heartache.

Without Ji Lingzhou's disturbance, Cheng Mingran quickly finished washing and was wearing gauze and waiting to change clothes. The palace maid was supposed to come in to help her dress, but as soon as she came in, this job was taken over by Ji Lingzhou.

"No need for them, let me help you?" Ji Lingzhou said seriously, holding the gorgeous dress tightly in her hands, looking as if she really knew how to do it.

Cheng Mingran stood aside, with a hint of hesitation on his face, and then asked: "Your Majesty, do you really know how to wear this?"

"What's there to not be able to do?" Ji Lingzhou obviously believed in himself.

Okay... Cheng Mingran stopped asking questions after hearing this.

Ji Lingzhou clumsily untied the gauze that Cheng Mingran had just put on. Her skin exuded a faint fragrance in the slightly moist air, like a mixture of morning dew and wild flowers.

Water drops slid down her neck and collarbone, dripping onto the ground with a crisp sound. Cheng Mingran turned around gently, and the gauze she was wearing, as transparent as a cicada's wing, gently slid down her shoulders.

Ji Lingzhou pulled off the gauze, which gently fell with a trace of water vapor and body temperature, and finally spread out on the ground, like a carefully painted hazy moonlit quicksand, which contrasted with the delicate luster of Cheng Mingran's skin, forming an indescribable beauty.

The gauze on the ground looked like a light cloud, or condensed from the night mist, enveloping Cheng Mingran's figure in a mysterious and elegant atmosphere.

Ji Lingzhou's Adam's apple moved slightly, and then he put the lining in his hand on her. But when he touched the complicated laces of the dress, Ji Lingzhou's movements became extremely stiff, as if he was frozen.

"This... why are there so many laces?" Ji Lingzhou frowned, looking a little at a loss, with a rare look of embarrassment on his face.

Seeing this, Cheng Mingran wanted to do it herself: "I'll do it myself."

But Ji Lingzhou refused to let go and insisted on changing her clothes: "I can do it, you don't have to do it yourself." Emperor Ji Lingzhou emphasized again, with a look of unwillingness to admit defeat on his face. It's just a few pieces of clothes, how could he not understand?

Cheng Mingran: “…” Forget it, let her be.

Under Cheng Mingran's gaze, Ji Lingzhou began to think carefully again. He untied a strap, then tied it back again. There were more than one strap, so it took a lot of effort.

Finally, after some "twists and turns", Ji Lingzhou finally put on Cheng Mingran's dress. Although it was a little crooked and wrinkled, he finally completed his "feat".

"There shouldn't be anything wrong, right?" Ji Lingzhou himself wasn't very sure. It was crooked, so there shouldn't be any problem, right?

Cheng Mingran looked at the crooked and wrinkled dress that Ji Lingzhou had put on her. Although she felt a little helpless, she still said in agreement: "That's right."

After hearing this, Ji Lingzhou felt relieved. As long as she didn't wear it wrong, it would be fine. He looked at Cheng Mingran's wrinkled skirt and helped her to tidy it up until he liked it.

This was the first time he helped someone get dressed. If he told others about it directly, I'm afraid no one would believe it, right?

"Palace dresses are complicated. If you feel uncomfortable, there is no need to make them so complicated." Ji Lingzhou said.

Cheng Mingran actually also found it troublesome. When she was alone in the palace before, she focused on making everything light for the sake of convenience.

But she still had to abide by the palace rules, and now that Ji Lingzhou was here, she couldn't act casually. But... now that Ji Lingzhou said so himself, it was different.

"Yeah," Cheng Mingran agreed.

"Before, out of consideration for your health, I didn't let you go to pay your respects to the Queen. Just now I heard that you went back to pay your respects on your own?" Ji Lingzhou suddenly asked again.

Cheng Mingran nodded: "This is the rule. I can't not go all the time. It would be disrespectful to the Queen." She said.

"It's not a big deal. If you don't want to go, then don't go. The Queen should understand." Ji Lingzhou said.

Although he didn't know what the specific situation was, he knew what those people would say when they got together. Cheng Mingran was in a bad mood right now, and staying with those people would only affect his mood further.

"I'm fine." Cheng Mingran refused again. Since she was the one who wanted to pay her respects to the Queen again, she certainly couldn't give up again.

Now that she had made the decision, she had to do something while staying in the palace. Otherwise, she would just hide in Lianyi Palace every day? Or would she live under the protection of Ji Lingzhou and the Queen Mother every day?

This is of course unrealistic, and even if you don't want to contact those people, there will always be someone who will come to you. So, in the end, it's better to be proactive, at least it's not passive, right?

She has now gradually figured out the ways to survive in the palace. When she was in the cold palace, she also saw it almost clearly. There is no point in retreating now.
