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

In order to avoid gossip, Su Su rarely went out and stayed at the Li Mansion with Li Xinglan and Shang Shiyu.

In a few days, Li Jinxiao was about to pass away. There were still many patients in the world waiting for him to save. Before leaving, he went to the palace to report his life and came back sighing.

Shangguan Xiaoxiao was the girl he had watched grow up. Living in the deep palace, her mental state was very bad, but he could do nothing except prescribe a prescription to calm her nerves.

She has always longed for freedom, thinking that if she left Jiangnan, she would be able to see more scenery. Unexpectedly, she stepped into an even more oppressive cage and met Han Mingxiu, which was her doom.

"Please take care of Xiaoxiao. I'm very worried about her." Li Jinxiao said this several times with concern. Li Xinglan and Su Su nodded solemnly in agreement every time. Only then did he feel a little relieved and left with the big medicine box on his back.

Li Erdie passed away, and in two days, Shang Shiyu would also be gone.

He should have left a long time ago. Not to mention that Wuzhao had stayed in the imperial city for so long, Liu Ye had urged him several times, and each time he did so with tears in his eyes.

Come back soon, I can’t bear it alone!

Early winter was already bleak, and Su Su felt uncomfortable having to say goodbye to relatives one after another. Before dawn, she accompanied Shang Shiyu for a long walk.

The long and silent street was filled with only the rustling of their footsteps and the clatter of horses' hooves.

The wind was quite strong today, so Li Xinglan just said goodbye at the door and went back home. His eyes couldn't stand the cold.

Shang Shiyu held the horse in one hand and Su Su in the other, walking very slowly. They both wished the street could be longer and longer.

"Okay, just send it here. Don't go too far."

After walking along Qintai Road, Shang Shiyu hugged Su Su. His chest was hot, warming her. The elegant scent of jasmine remained unchanged, somewhat intoxicating.

As soon as he bent down, before he took the next step, Su Su stood on tiptoe tacitly and took the initiative to kiss his equally hot lips.

Their breaths intertwined, inseparable. Fuling, who was escorting not far away, could hear the ambiguous voice even with her eyes closed.

Sometimes, she was really worried about Su Xiaozhu, wondering how she would be able to bear it in the future...

"I'll wait for news of you and Brother Gou coming to Yongzhou. When the time comes, I'll definitely come to pick you up!"

No matter how reluctant he was, he had to leave. Shang Shiyu straightened Su Su's collar, called Fuling, and got on the horse with his back straight.

Even in the dim environment, he was still dazzling and full of the vigor that his age should have. "I will miss you, miss you the most, and only think of you!"

After saying this, he squeezed his legs against the horse's belly. With the regular sound of horse hooves, his tall figure gradually turned into a small black dot until it disappeared.

Fuling led the horse over, helped Su Su onto it, and walked towards home. Suddenly, she heard her say, "Let's go to the palace and see Xiaoxiao."

When she came out, she had specially brought the goddess's token. She didn't know if it was because she was too sad to say goodbye to Ergou, or for some other reason, but she felt a little panicked for no reason.

Halfway through the walk, a small drop of water suddenly fell on her face. Was it raining? Su Su reached out to catch it, but it wasn't rain, it was snow.

Fuling said that the first snow this year fell particularly early.

The snow was not heavy and melted as soon as it fell on the ground, like rain. Afraid that Su Su would get wet, Fuling suggested going back to Li's house first and changing to a carriage.

Su Su nodded. It was time for her to change her clothes. Her hair was a little wet.

I was a little worried about Ergou. It started snowing as soon as we set out on the road. It must be so tiring for him to travel such a long distance.

As soon as she arrived at Li's Mansion, she saw a carriage parked at the door. It seemed to be from the palace. Her bad premonition became even stronger. Su Su hurriedly dismounted and ran into Li's Mansion.

Li Xinglan sat in the reception room. Aunt Wang added charcoal to the brazier and covered him with a thick cloak. This was the critical period of recovery and he couldn't be allowed to get sick.

The chief eunuch, De Gonggong, who was the little Dezi who had always followed Yu Yan, saw Su Su coming and hurried to greet her, "Your Highness the Goddess, please come back to the palace with me!"

"What happened?" Su Su recognized him, her voice trembling unnoticed by herself. Did something happen to Yu Yan? Did he hurt himself again?

"Something big has happened!" Xiao Dezi originally came to ask Li Xinglan for help, but when he saw his eyes, he was in trouble. Then he thought, the goddess is the same, she has a good relationship with Concubine Rou.

Something happened to Xiaoxiao. When Su Su heard the news, although she was extremely worried, she couldn't help but feel a little relieved.

Fortunately it's not Yu Yan...

"Xiaoxiao, no, what happened to Concubine Rou?" She felt guilty for her momentary laxity and hurriedly cared about Xiaoxiao's situation.

"The imperial concubine committed suicide!" Xiao Dezi was shocked when he said this. The emperor was furious now, and the entire palace was in panic. It was feared that the situation was about to change!

Because the one who helped Concubine Rou commit suicide was the Ninth Thousand Year Old!

He didn't even know why the Ninth Prince did this. Everyone knew that Concubine Rou was the emperor's most beloved woman. Helping her commit suicide was simply courting death.

Su Su's heart sank again after hearing this. This was worse than self-harm! How was Yu Yan's behavior any different from suicide?!

There was no time to change clothes, and she was about to leave with Xiao Dezi, but Li Xinglan stopped her.

He stood up and took off his cloak, covered her with it, and rubbed her slightly wet hair. "I'll go with you."

"No! Second Dad said that you can't mess with your eyes anymore!" Su Su refused without thinking. She knew that Gou Ge was worried about Xiao Xiao, and was also worried that she couldn't handle this alone.

She assured: "Don't worry, I will take care of it, just wait for me at home."

Unable to persuade her, Li Xinglan sighed helplessly and held her hand tightly. "No matter what, you must ensure your own safety first. I can't lose you again."

Even though he couldn't see, Li Xinglan could still imagine Su Su holding up her skirt and striding forward with her head held high. The little girl who once hid behind him had grown up.

The snow fell strangely but appropriately. From the time it hit the ground and turned into water to the time it turned into heavy snow flying all over the sky, it took only an hour.

Rushing to the palace in a hurry, Su Su could feel the depressing atmosphere even at the palace gate.

On the way, she also asked about Yu Yan's situation. Xiao Dezi wiped her tears and said, "I don't know how the emperor will punish Jiu Qiansui. When I came out, Jiu Qiansui was still kneeling in Zhaohua Palace."

Zhaohua Palace was a small sleeping hall, and Su Su went straight there.

After stepping over the high threshold of the palace gate, she saw a person kneeling on the wet ground from a distance.

Yu Yan. She had never seen him kneel before. He was extremely powerful and had the emperor's special permission, so it was obvious that the emperor did not kneel. But now he was kneeling on the dirty and wet ground, and his back looked much thinner.

He knelt straight in front of the hall, with fallen snow covering his hair and shoulders. In front of him was a warm and bright bedroom, with imperial physicians rushing in and out.

Their foreheads were covered with sweat, and they were trembling with fear, as if they were about to die. If Concubine Rou died, they were afraid they would die with her.

Feeling someone standing beside him, Yu Yan raised his stiff chin. His eyelashes were dyed white by the snow, and he looked like a fragile glass statue.

Su Su held an umbrella for him. Seeing him like this, she felt so suffocated that she could hardly breathe.

Even the question was trembling, "Why? Yu Yan, why are you doing this? Is it fun to torture yourself?"
