Reborn, I am doing involution on Jinshan

Dongfang Ran's neck stiffened as he suddenly thought of something. He lowered his eyes to look at the tip of his shoe. Uncomfortable under Ji Guanyuan's gaze, he growled softly, "You know I'm a prince, yet you still dare to disobey me? How many heads do you have?"

Ji Guanyuan sneered disdainfully, "Every prince is planning for his own future, why don't you plan for your own future as soon as possible? You are not a child anymore, don't get angry at every little thing, your enemy is not me. Wake up!"

Dongfang Ran, who had been looking silly, immediately straightened up, his eyes flashing with shrewdness. He said indignantly, "If I hadn't pretended to be a little stupid, a little dumber, I would have died hundreds of times already."

"Then try to live longer and outlast them." Ji Guanyuan said heartlessly.

Dongfang Ran suddenly stood up and hugged Ji Guanzhong. Seeing that he didn't react, he felt bored and let go of him. He said with difficulty, "Although I don't know why you are so keen on mixing with us princes, and what hidden secrets you have, I am still very happy that you are the first person who wants me to live."

Ji Guanyuan said: "Actually, this sentence was not said by me, but by Li Ge."

Dongfang Ran was stunned for a moment, a flicker of surprise and disappointment flashing across his eyes. Then he resumed his innocent demeanor, but with a different mix of emotions in his eyes. "So it was Li Ge who said that... He's been gone for so long, do you still remember what he said?" He muttered to himself, feeling a strange pang of bitterness in his heart.

Ji Guanyuan looked at him and couldn't help but teasingly asked, "Why, are you disappointed?"

Dongfang Ran blushed slightly, turned his head away, and said stubbornly, "Who's disappointed? I'm just a little surprised."

Ji Guanyuan's eyes dimmed slightly, and he said firmly: "When you meet him, you will definitely like him. He is a very wise man."

"I hope so!" Dongfang Ran said sourly.

Ji Guanyuan's eyes were clear as he whispered, "I'm visiting Prince Gong's residence tonight. I just want to see if the tunnel I walked through as a child is still there. Everything else is just an accident!"

"So, do you hope he comes back?" Dongfang Ran drank a cup of strong tea and was about to burst.

"Now, those princes are all afraid that he will come back to fight for the throne! They hope that something bad will happen to him soon and he won't be able to come back!"

Dongfang Ran just wanted to poke his heart

Ji Guanyuan was silent for a moment, then slowly spoke, "Of course I hope he comes back. If he comes back, perhaps there will be less conflict in this country."

Dongfang Ran sneered, "You are naive, even more foolish than me. If he comes back, those people will never give up so easily. It will be another bloody storm."

No one in the imperial city could stay out of this. This killer god, like the judge of hell, might be going mad with rage.

Ji Guanyuan's eyes were firm: "I believe he is capable of dealing with it, and he should get back what belongs to him."

"Believe it, believe it. Do you have any special hobbies? Do you like men?" Dongfang Ran looked at Ji Guanyuan with mixed feelings. He didn't know whether he should be jealous of Ji Guanyuan's trust in Li Ge, or admire his persistence.

Ji Guanzhong's eyes widened in anger: "Put away your dirty and terrible thoughts. I am a normal man who only likes beautiful women."

He is very confident when it comes to flirting with girls, otherwise he wouldn't be the top playboy.

He was only eighteen, not eighty-one, and he just didn't have a fiancée, so why did everyone think there was something wrong with his sexual orientation? They approached the prince for their own careers.

He worked so hard to serve a group of dog princes, but they were ungrateful and were plotting against him behind his back. He was so angry that he was bleeding from internal injuries.

"Ran'er, don't read those cheap little storybooks. Study more and practice martial arts more. Don't always ask me, the young master, to save you." After saying this, he sneered to express his inner dissatisfaction.

Dongfang Ran was furious after being scolded by Ji Guanyuan. Just as he was about to retort, Ji Guanyuan pointed out the window, signaling him to shut up. He hunched over, standing by the window, waiting for his chance to strike.

"Meow meow meow" turned out to be a wild cat. The two looked at each other, speechless and helpless. The difference was that Dongfang extinguished the fire in his heart.

"This is not a good place to talk, Fourth Prince. It's getting late and the dew is heavy. You should go back and rest early." Ji Guanyuan ordered him to leave in a cold voice.

Dongfang Ran was indeed tired, and said in frustration, "Brother Ji, I was wrong just now. I shouldn't have doubted you."

"Get out!" Ji Guanyuan suppressed the urge to beat someone up and shouted angrily.

Dongfang Ran was choked by the word "get out," his face turning red and white. He gritted his teeth and was about to explode, but when he saw Ji Guanzhong's poker face, he retreated guiltily.

As they were leaving, Ji Guanyuan's cold voice drifted over: "Don't tell anyone about what you heard at Prince Gong's mansion tonight, lest you alert the enemy."

"Well, I'm not a fool." Dongfang Ran paused after saying this. Seeing that he didn't want to talk anymore, he closed the door and returned to his room.

He tried hard to recall the conversation between Cui and her lover, but still couldn't grasp the key point, so he stopped studying and fell asleep as sleepiness came over him.

Meanwhile, in Prince Gong's mansion, Xiao Ruiyue was still unconscious in the hospital bed, and Dongfang Huang stood by, worried. Unbeknownst to them, a conspiracy against Prince Gong's mansion was quietly brewing in the dark...

The next day, dawn broke.

At Prince Gong's residence, the housekeeper Zhao Ran already knew that the court physician had come, so he sent a confidant to get the prescription and buy medicine early in the morning.

Xiaomei, the kitchen steward, also came to help with the decoction. She and the housekeeper, Zhao Ran, were childhood sweethearts and already had a son and daughter. Their wedding had been delayed repeatedly due to the disappearance of Prince Gong's wife. When she heard the prince say he would personally arrange their wedding, she was so excited she began to suffer from insomnia.

She just wanted to show off herself and repay the host's kindness. After the medicine was boiled, Caihong said carefully: "Miss, wake up, it's time to drink the medicine."

Little Ruiyue slowly opened her eyes. The fever had subsided, but her eyesight was vacant and she was very weak. This time, the illness had come on with a vengeance.

She had been dreaming about the dancers coming to take her life all night. She was truly frightened to the point of falling ill. It was the first time she had seen someone die in front of her, their faces horrible, and even in her dreams. Who could stand it?

With Caihong's help, he sat up. Caihong blew on the medicine soup and fed it to little Ruiyue spoonful by spoonful. The medicine was extremely bitter, but little Ruiyue forced herself to swallow it. Her little face wrinkled into a monkey's face.

"Eat a piece of honey and your mouth will be sweet." Xiaomei coaxed her with a smile.

"Thank you, Aunt Mei, you still have a solution." Caihong raised her eyebrows.

Xiaomei said softly, "I am afraid of taking bitter medicine myself, so I thought of this trick of pairing it with something sweet, and then I forget the bitterness."

She looked at the sky. The sun was rising from the horizon, shining brightly.

"Oh, while we were talking, the prince is about to get up. I'll go to the kitchen to see what delicious food the cooks have prepared. I'll bring it to you later." After saying that, Xiaomei left in a hurry.

After eating the candied fruit, Xiao Ruiyue calmed down and asked Sima Xiaotao softly, "Did you find anything last night?" Sima Xiaotao hurried forward and told her everything about what she saw Cui having a tryst with the strange man and what she heard about the conversation.

Xiao Ruiyue frowned, wondering what "things have been arranged properly" meant. She knew that Cui had ulterior motives and that this must be related to a conspiracy.

After drinking the medicine, Xiao Ruiyue fell into a deep sleep again. Caihong stayed by her bedside, not daring to leave for a moment, her eyes fixed on Xiao Ruiyue, fearing that she would feel any more discomfort. She prayed silently in her heart: "Oh God, please bless Xiao Ruiyue to get better soon. Xiao Ruiyue still has to find her biological mother, and there are still many things to do..."

At the same time, Dongfang Hao and Dongfang Huang were very worried when they learned that Xiao Ruiyue was ill.
