Even though I was dressed as an ugly woman, I was still forced to love by all kinds of big guys

No way! Yu Yan met Yu Zhaoyi's eyes without any fear.

"My heart is drawn to Xuejian. I just want to stand higher so that I can give her more."

Yu Zhaoyi snorted, "A man's mouth..."

That's not right. Yu Yan can only be considered half a man now? Yu Zhaoyi thought for a moment, "Today, you should express your feelings in front of me, so that I can ask the emperor to grant you a marriage."

Yu Zhaoyi is a good person and truly treats Lin Xuejian as her sister. She wants her to live a good life in this strange world.

With her as witness, the two exchanged tokens of love. Yu Yan had been holding the earrings he bought for Lin Xuejian in his arms. He hadn't given them to her because he had only just remembered she didn't have pierced ears...

The incident happened suddenly. Lin Xuejian searched all over her body but couldn't find anything meaningful to exchange. Seeing her embarrassment, Yu Yan smiled and pulled her over, "I have received your token."

ah? What?

Looking at her puzzled expression, Yu Yan pointed at her heart and said, "Here."

There were also countless things she gave to herself. She gave him everything she could afford.

The sweet words came out of her mouth, and in front of Yu Zhaoyi, Lin Xue's face turned red. "Wait, wait until you come back, I will give it to you."

When Yu Yan set out on the road to disaster relief, Lin Xuejian did not have the chance to see him off. She stood outside the emperor's bedroom, waiting for Yu Zhaoyi's call.

There was still a drizzle in the sky, and she thought, Yu Yan should be about to leave the city by now, right?

There was a bird flying high in the sky without fear of wind and rain. She looked at the bird in a trance, hoping that Yu Yan could ride the wind and waves and fly higher and higher.

What about her? Can she escape from this deep palace and become a free bird? It seems a bit difficult.

In this era, women could not accumulate fame and become officials. Perhaps when Yu Zhaoyi became a noble concubine, she would have the right to let her leave the palace and become an ordinary citizen.

She believed that the kind-hearted Concubine Yu would definitely let her go.

After a long time, good news about Yu Yan came frequently. Yu Zhaoyi happily called Lin Xuejian over. She said that the next time the emperor favored her, she would have a reason to say more good things about Yu Yan.

She thought that if Yu Yan lived well, Xue Jian would also be able to live a better life in the future.

Just when everyone thought everything was going well, God played a huge joke on them.

God took Xuejian back, and just as she came, she suddenly left in a hurry. The incident happened suddenly. When Yu Zhaoyi sent someone to inform Yu Yan, it was too late. She had already closed her eyes.

She will always remember that night when Xuejian helped her to bed, said "good night" to her as usual, and left with the small palace lantern. Today was the night duty of the other palace maids.

Before she fell asleep, she heard the little palace maid knocking on the door urgently, shouting, "Madam! Something happened to Miss Xuejian!"

She suddenly jumped up from the bed, losing all the graceful manners that were ingrained in her bones. She hurriedly put on her coat and ran to the place where the little palace maid said without even having time to put on her shoes.

In the quiet and dim eaves corridor, from a distance, she saw Xuejian, who usually had a smiling face, lying on the ground without a sound. A large pool of dark red had wet the ground, and a small palace lantern had rolled to the side, emitting a faint light.

"How could this happen?!" She didn't even dare to step forward to take a closer look. She broke down and cried, "Imperial Physician! Call the Imperial Physician!!!"

The young palace maid who was on good terms with Lin Xuejian also burst into tears, "Your Majesty, we've already gone to get the imperial physician, don't worry..."

How could she not be anxious?! Yu Zhaoyi was so anxious that she almost died. She couldn't understand why she would go to so much trouble to deal with a little palace maid?!

The imperial physician arrived and found that the patient had been poisoned and his internal organs had been damaged, and there was no way to save him.

Lin Xuejian used all her strength to describe to Yu Zhaoyi that the person who forced the poison into her was a petite person in black, who looked like a woman.

Yu Zhaoyi was stunned for a long time before she finally came to her senses. Listening to Xuejian's description, why did she look so much like the person who hurt the Sixth Prince's biological mother?

The emperor conducted a thorough investigation for a long time but still could not find out who it was. From then on, it became an unsolved case in the palace and remains unsolved to this day.

What should I do? If it really is the same person, revenge will be difficult.

Perhaps because she had lost all her strength due to the pain, Lin Xuejian no longer cried out in pain. She just shed tears and kept calling out "Yu Yan".

Her voice grew weaker and weaker, and Yu Zhaoyi couldn't stop crying. She squatted beside the bed, holding her hand, and tremblingly comforted her: "Yu Yan will be back soon, you have to hold on, Xuejian!"

Lin Xuejian's pupils had begun to dilate, and she thought that she could no longer wait for Yu Yan.

"Sister Yu Lian..." This was the first time she broke the rules and addressed Concubine Yu by her name, but she knew she wouldn't be angry.

"I'm here! Sister Xuejian, I'm here!" Yu Lian leaned closer to listen to what she wanted to say.

Her tears dripped onto Lin Xuejian's face, and the two girls' tears mixed together and dripped onto the pillow.

"Thank you, Sister Yu Lian..." If there was anyone in the palace who she was most worried about, besides Yu Yan, it was Yu Zhaoyi.

She is too kind. In this palace full of dangers, I am really afraid that she will not live to the end. After all, in TV dramas, only the extremely smart and ruthless heroine can survive to the end.

"Sister should thank you. Thank you for teaching me to fight for it. My dear Xuejian..."

"Please, sister... leave a suicide note for me... for Yu Yan..."

The content of the letter was only a few short lines. Lin Xuejian spoke in a halting and trembling voice for a long time before she slowly finished it.

She understood Yu Yan. He would definitely blame her for lying to him and not waiting for him as agreed.

She also knew Yu Yan's temper. If she didn't leave him a suicide note about "love", he would follow her.

She wanted him to live well.

In Yu Zhaoyi's arms, Lin Xuejian closed her eyes forever. Yu Zhaoyi hugged her and cried bitterly. Even the emperor outside the house was moved. In the deep palace, this true love is really precious.

When Yu Yan rushed back day and night, it was already three days later.

Yu Zhaoyi's head was broken, and she begged the emperor for a jade pendant, which could temporarily keep her body from decaying.

When Yu Yan came back, they buried Lin Xuejian together, which was also a deception to the emperor. They buried her secretly in a plantation in the palace, which was full of snow primrose.

This was the boldest thing Yu Zhaoyi had ever done in her life. She really wanted Xuejian to continue staying in the palace to accompany her. She and Yu Yan had a common secret, and once it was exposed, they would both be doomed.

She handed the suicide letter to Yu Yan, and tears couldn't stop flowing.

At the end of the letter, her silly sister asked Yu Yan to protect her well and help her become a noble concubine, saying that this was something she had not accomplished.

She knew that Lin Xuejian wanted to leave a memory for Yu Yan and wanted him to live well.

Yu Yan tore up the letter in front of her, his face expressionless, as if he had returned to the time when the sky was covered with heavy snow and he was tired of the world.

He will help Concubine Yu get promoted as she wishes.

From then on, there was no Lin Xuejian in this world anymore.
