The Cold-blooded Emperor's Vengeful Concubine

Chapter 76 Life-Sustaining Pill

I vaguely saw your anxious face in my dream, I vaguely saw your gentle face in my dream, I vaguely dreamed that we returned to the beautiful sweetness of the past, I vaguely dreamed...

In a daze, she vaguely heard someone whisper in her ear, "Get well, I'll give you a lifetime of honor and favor." That voice was the one she missed the most in her heart.

Another cold voice said in her ear, if you regret it, I will take you away.

It was a hot summer day. After an unknown amount of time had passed, Yun Jingman, who had been lying in a coma for many days, finally woke up one day.

It hurts, my whole body aches. I pried open my eyelids to adjust to the strong light, then turned around and saw a figure on the bed. I looked closely and said in a fiery voice with a dry and burning throat, "Why is it you?" The distance and unkindness in his tone were not concealed at all.

"Hehe, it's not that person. You are disappointed, aren't you?" The cold eyes did not miss the fleeting disappointment in Yun Jingman's eyes, and she mocked her coldly.

"Are you disappointed to see that I'm not dead?" Yun Jingman retorted coldly.

"Yes, I came here just to see if you were dead. In the end, you were still fine, I was really disappointed. I am much more honest than you." She spoke sweetly and glanced at Yun Jingman with cold eyes.

"If I die, who will kill the dog emperor? You? Zi Yan." Yun Jingman said coldly with a frown.

Zi Yan was speechless for a moment. She glanced straight at Yun Jingman, lifted her skirt, stood up, walked to the table and poured a glass of water.

Zi Yan knew that the woman in front of her was no longer the person who allowed herself to be bullied. She knew how to fight back. She was like a hedgehog covered with thorns. Anyone who approached her would be hurt and stabbed.

"Drink some water." Zi Yan handed the cup to Yun Jingman.

Yun Jingman's throat was indeed burning, but she didn't act pretentiously. She propped up her injured body, took the cup and drank it down with "gulps". She was probably in the same situation as when a long drought finally came.

Soon the cup was empty, and he handed it to Zi Yan who was standing beside the bed. Zi Yan picked up the cup without saying a word and poured another glass of water. After pouring several cups, Yun Jingman felt that it was enough.

"Thank you." Yun Jingman greeted lightly. She was a person who clearly distinguished between gratitude and resentment. She would repay a grudge and thank a favor.

"I do this only for my master. You don't have to thank me."

"I should thank him. How many days have I been unconscious?" Yun Jingman saw that her whole body was wrapped in thick gauze, and she remembered that devil who beat her violently in the dark cell, and kept asking, "Tell me, who is that man?"

He never believed her. When he thought about it, his heart ached, more painful than the pain in his body...

"Not much, just ten days or so." Zi Yan said with a relaxed and sarcastic tone.

"Ten days?" Yun Jingman asked in surprise. Is her body so fragile? Hasn't she been through a lot of trials and tribulations? How could she still be in a coma for ten days?

"The wounds on your body were inflamed and oozing pus, and you had a high fever that wouldn't go away. I almost thought you were going to die. Thanks to that dog emperor, he gave you a life-extending pill that kept you half alive. You finally came back from the gates of hell." Zi Yan said as she paid attention to the changes in Yun Jingman's facial expression, not missing any sign of abnormality on her face.

"Life-extending pill?" She had studied medicine with Gu Yue in Butterfly Valley for three years. Of course, she knew how precious the life-extending pill was. The ghost doctor made a pill to extend life, and there were only three of them in the world. She actually ate one.

She was not surprised at this moment how Baili Haoxuan had the life-extending pill. What she could not believe was that he actually gave her such a precious life-extending pill. Was this...

There are thousands of thoughts in my heart, sweet and honey, rippling in my heart...

"Even if that dog emperor gave you a life-extending pill, so what? Don't forget who caused you to almost die!" Zi Yan said harshly when she saw Yun Jingman's sweet smile. If Yun Jingman was distracted, it would affect this plan, especially...

After hearing Zi Yan's words, Yun Jingman's heart, which had not yet been stirred, instantly became as stagnant as water; his heart, which had not yet ignited a spark, was instantly extinguished by a basin of chilling water.

"I know. You don't need to remind me. One hundred life-extending pills can't bring back my life that didn't even have the chance to call me mother. They can't bring back the lives of all the people of Cangming. They can't bring back the humiliation I've suffered!" He gritted his teeth, refusing to forget the hatred deep in his heart.

"Just remember it." Zi Yan turned and left...

Only Yun Jingman was left...

There is really no going back between them, even if it is that sweet lie, there is no going back, there is no going back...

The sun is shining brightly, and the sultry summer is emitting the hottest light, baking the earth.

"It's so cold." Leng Ruoning, wearing the queen's orthodox palace dress, leaned on the phoenix couch with a blank look in her eyes and said softly.

"Your Majesty, how can it be cold in such a hot day? I will go get some clothes for you to cover yourself with." Zui Lu, Leng Ruoning's personal maid, said.

"The Fengsheng Palace, which has no grace or favor and receives no rain or dew, is cold, gloomy and cold. Clothes can warm the body, but can they warm the heart?" The stunning face was full of worry.

Zui Lu looked at her young lady, and a trace of sadness on her beautiful face spread across her heart. When Leng Ruoning was still the daughter of the general of the Leng family, Zui Lu had already been serving Leng Ruoning. She was originally an orphan beggar wandering on the street, but fortunately Leng Ruoning took pity on her and took her in.

Although she was the daughter of a general who held most of the military power in the Xuanhuang Dynasty and held such a respected status, she never put on airs and was a gentle and kind woman.

She had been with Leng Ruoning since she was a child, so she naturally knew what was going on between the young lady and the emperor, and even between her and Yan Zinuo.

"Zuilu, do you still remember that when we were little, the emperor and Zinuo often came to the general's mansion. At that time, the emperor, Zinuo and I would sing, play the piano, or play chess? I really miss the carefree childhood." There was a hint of sadness between his brows, but there was a smile on his lips, and his eyes were full of nostalgia...

Without giving Zui Lu a chance to get a word in, Leng Ruoning spoke again: "The innocent childhood of the three of us is gone forever. Since when can I no longer see my shadow in his eyes?" He seemed to be thinking seriously, with a serious expression.

"Was it that night when I was outside the Fengsheng Palace, looking at the silhouettes of the couple on the window? Was it on the night of the Emperor and Empress' wedding? Or was it a long time ago?" He muttered to himself.

"But, I don't remember anything, I don't remember anything..." Leng Ruoning seemed to be in pain, holding her head with both hands and muttering.

Zui Lu knelt on the ground, holding Leng Ruoning's hands with both hands, and paused for a moment. The lady's hands were icy cold. She passed the warmth of her hands to Leng Ruoning, and looked up at the increasingly haggard Leng Ruoning. In the past three years, although the lady was the queen, she was less happy than before, because the emperor rarely came to Fengsheng Palace.

"Your Majesty, please don't be like this, okay? Didn't you promise Lord Yan that you would get over it and not do this again?" Zui Lu said with concern. The taciturn young lady was always unhappy.

"I thought I could let it go. He kept his promise, made me queen and treated me as his wife. However, he did not treat me as the love of his life as he said. To him, I was just a queen and a wife, in name only." It's so sad. The man's heart is as thin as paper, and I hate to fall in love with him.

"No, Your Majesty, it's not like that. Your Majesty, Your Majesty loves Your Majesty. Yes, He loves you." She said these trembling words, and she didn't even believe them herself.

"He loves Sang Yu Hanyan." Leng Ruoning broke away from Zui Lu's hand and walked towards the bedroom exhausted, tears falling silently drop by drop.

When he made love with her, he always called her "Yan'er." His infatuation and deep affection were all for Sang Yu Hanyan.

Three years ago, Baili Haoxuan destroyed the entire Cangming Kingdom and killed the entire Cangming royal family, but spared Sang Yu Hanyan and imprisoned her in the cold palace. Later, she died because the whole cold palace was burned down by heavenly fire.

At that time, she should have known that Baili Haoxuan's attitude towards Sang Yu Hanyan would never be as simple as Yan Zinuo said, that she was just a pawn to paralyze King Cangming.

Later, although she became the queen, it was not because of Baili Haoxuan's sincere reward. It was just that the ministers in the court repeatedly exerted pressure, saying that the country cannot be without a king for a day, the harem cannot be without a queen for a day, and the world must be united and follow the lead of the royal family.

Baili Haoxuan agreed to make her his queen because of a joke he made in his childhood: "When he becomes emperor one day, Ning'er will definitely be his queen."

She thought that after enduring those two years of loneliness, after Sang Yu Hanyan left, she finally endured and saw the light, and could spend her life with the man she loved. Even if this man was the master of overthrowing the world and had a harem of three thousand concubines, but only his heart was with her, so she accepted it all without regrets.

She was crowned as the queen and sat in the harem, but she did not receive his favor. She waited for a year before the rain and dew finally came. On that day, when she was in a frenzy, he actually muttered: "Yan'er, Yan'er, I miss you so much..."

She was already confused and distracted, but suddenly she heard the man's whispers, her body stiffened, and she couldn't believe it at all. After that, the result of their lovemaking was the same, he called someone else's name while making love with her...

At that time, she wanted to die. Although she was weak, she had her pride. She actually fell into the situation of being someone else's substitute. From then on, she knew Baili Haoxuan's secrets that perhaps even she herself didn't know.

He was such a proud and conceited emperor, but he actually fell in love with the woman he had always regarded as a chess piece. I'm afraid he himself could not have imagined it...

Things in the world are so wonderful that you can't imagine...

Step by step, she slowly moved her body, draining all her strength, and her tears flowed quickly. She really loved Baili Haoxuan very much, but she didn't expect that she couldn't even compare to a dead person...

Zui Lu looked at Leng Ruoning's lonely and thin back and felt very sad. The young lady, who had been feeling a little better, became depressed again these days.

It must be the Concubine Qing in the Qingyue Palace. During the time when the Concubine Qing was in a coma, she went to visit her in the Qingyue Palace every day and gave the woman the most precious life-extending pill, of which there are only three in the world. That's why the young lady became even more sad.

Looking at Leng Ruoning's back, she made a decision...

The more I walk, the more my steps become more and more floating, the more I walk on the road, the more confused I become. I hope that there will always be no end...

She is not the old one, and that she is not the new one either. She is the only one who has left a mark in his heart...
