Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace: Fawning

But because of Ruyi's illness, he had to catch mice and occasionally make soup for Ruyi.

The moment she saw Ling Yunche again, Hailan's eyebrows were raised, and her eyes seemed to be spitting fire. She didn't believe it before, but now that she saw Ling Yunche appear here, wearing a eunuch's uniform, she believed that everything Jing Se said was true.

She'd abandoned Yongqi for Ruyi, but what about Ruyi? She'd warned her long ago to stay away from Ling Yunche, but Ruyi hadn't listened and had even played a good hand to pieces. Hailan knew she wasn't smart, but what about Ruyi? With a noble family background and loyal servants, she'd been sent to the cold palace for the second time. Hailan was overwhelmed with disappointment. She regretted it so much. She truly regretted it.

Ling Yunche didn't seem to expect to see Hailan again in this way. But the Hailan in front of him had lost her former beauty. Her face was already replaced by wrinkles, and even her black hair had turned white.

But Ling Yunche was still very excited. Ruyi had been ill for so long, and finally she could see her old friend again. Maybe her condition would improve immediately.

The idea in his mind was very beautiful. Ling Yunche hurried to Hai Lan and asked excitedly: "Hai promised, why are you here?"

Hai Lan sneered and said sinisterly, "I should be the one asking Guard Ling this question. Why are you here?"

Ling Yunche's smile froze. He lowered his head and rubbed the back of his head, then slowly said, "This is a long story, and it can't be explained in just a few words. My dear, are you here to see the Empress? How about I take you in?"

Hailan nodded slightly.

He hid the knife under his sleeve and followed Ling Yunche into the main hall.

"Cough...cough..."

The further they walked, the heavier Ruyi's cough became. Her cough was like the sound of wind blowing through dead branches in autumn, with a hint of desolation.

After not seeing each other for many years, no one expected that the scene would be like this when they met again.

Ruyi lay on the bed, curled up in pain, her mouth involuntarily opened, revealing her chattering teeth. Her teeth were clenched tightly, and painful moans squeezed out from between her teeth. Her whole face became distorted, the veins on her forehead bulged, her eyes widened unconsciously, and she looked at people with panic and helplessness, as if revealing a desperate sense of dying struggle.

When Ruyi saw Hailan's face clearly, she couldn't believe that the old woman in front of her was her good sister Hailan.

She arched her body, slowly extended her hand to Hailan and said, "Hailan? Is that you, Hailan?"

Hai Lan ignored her hand and asked Ling Yunche, "Didn't you ask the imperial physician to come and see the queen?"

Ling Yunche shook his head. Jiang Yubin was dead, Li Yu and惢心 had left the palace. He had also fallen from being a guard to a eunuch. Who else in the palace could help them now?

Hailan sighed, realizing that so many things had happened while she was confined to the harem.

But what did her Yongqi do wrong? Why did Ruyi treat him like this?

Ruyi didn't seem to realize the seriousness of the matter. She thought Ruyi would still treat her as a good sister, listen to her complaints, and find a way to rescue her. But to her surprise, Hailan came to kill her today.

When Hailan pulled out the dagger from under her sleeve, Ling Yunche noticed it immediately. He pushed Hailan away, grabbed Ruyi's hand and ran out. Hailan missed and fell heavily to the ground. Seeing Ruyi running away, she quickly grabbed the dagger and immediately chased after her.

"Ulanara, you have harmed Yongqi, I want you to pay with your life."

The door of Yiku Palace was not closed, Ling Yunche took Ruyi's hand and ran out.

The disheveled Ruyi, Ling Yunche who was still walking briskly while holding Ruyi's hand, and Hai Lan who was chasing after her relentlessly, this scene looked like a farce in the eyes of the palace people.

Ruyi was in poor health and couldn't hold on for long before she tripped and fell to the ground.

Ling Yunche turned around and wanted to help Ruyi up, but she twisted her ankle unexpectedly. Seeing the dagger in Hailan's hand about to stab him, Ling Yunche used his body to protect Ruyi in a hurry. The dagger in Hailan's hand went straight into Ling Yunche's back.

Only a muffled groan was heard.

Ruyi looked back at Ling Yunche and shouted, "Ling Yunche, are you okay?"

Ling Yunche shook his head and said, "It's okay." Then he turned his head to look at Hai Lan and said, "Hai promised. Are you calm now?"

cool down?

That is impossible.

Hailan used a little more strength and inserted the dagger deeper. Seeing that Ling Yunche was about to die, Ruyi frowned and shouted: "Hailan, what are you doing? Are you crazy? This is Ling Yunche..."

"I'm crazy. You've driven me mad. Ulanara, I, Keliyete Hailan, once treated you like a real sister. To save you from the cold palace, I took mercury during my pregnancy. To ensure you became empress, I used words to stimulate Empress Xiaoxian, causing her to fall into icy water in a trance. For you, I taught Yongqi to always put you first. You caused the Emperor to misunderstand the eldest and third princes, believing they were plotting to seize the throne. I thought you would take good care of Yongqi for me even if I was sent to the cold palace, but you treated Yongqi badly. You were even afraid that he would bring trouble to you, so you tried every possible means to drive him out of the Yikun Palace..."

"How can I not hate you?"

"I...I..." Ruyi lowered her head in shame.

Hai Lan: "Ulanara, you really make me sick. You keep saying you love the emperor, but the next moment you're entangled with this man."

Ruyi: "Hai Lan, why do you think so?"

Seeing Hailan's aggressiveness, Ruyi could no longer tolerate it.

Ruyi: "Help me? Do you think I don't know what you're planning? You know the Emperor loves me, but after Empress Xiaoxian passed away, you gambled that the Emperor would make me Empress and give Yongqi to me to raise. You just wanted to use me to help Yongqi ascend the throne. You said I'm cruel, but aren't you cruel too?"

Hai Lan widened her eyes. She didn't expect that this was the image of herself in Ruyi's mind.

All these years were wasted.

Hai Lan didn't want to say any more to Ruyi, so she pulled out her dagger and stabbed Ruyi again.

"Ah~" Ruyi roared, and just as the dagger was about to fall, a group of guards jumped out from nowhere, raised their swords and stabbed towards Hailan's abdomen.

Instantly, a faint stream of bloody foam escaped from Hailan's mouth, flowing down and staining her clothes. The air was filled with the smell of blood, and the breath of death hung heavy on the scene. Unable to kill Ruyi with her own hands, Hailan felt deep despair and fell to the ground, her whole body convulsing unconsciously, and blood flowed from all seven orifices, a chilling sight.

Hai Lan never closed her eyes until her death, and her eyes were fixed on Ruyi.

"Ling Yunche——"

After escaping danger, Ruyi hurriedly helped Ling Yunche up and let him lean on her arms. Over the years, she had never given Ling Yunche a good face, but Ling Yunche had never thought of giving up on her.
