After a night, Ji Xingyao was so anxious that he got several blisters in his mouth.
When she accidentally hit her teeth while eating, the pain made her grimace and she couldn't speak clearly.
She didn't dare look at Wen Yuan.
She usually liked to touch Wen Yuan's round belly, but today she didn't touch it once.
While going to the small kitchen, Ji Xingyao squatted by the door and sighed, with a small hill rising between her beautiful eyebrows.
Xingyao, who was always smiling, lowered her head with a gloomy look on her face, and even Nanny Li noticed something was wrong.
"Ling'er? Why are you sighing?"
Nanny Li has been feeling both happy and nervous lately, like the koi fish in the pond of Yonghe Palace, jumping and leaping high from time to time.
Seeing that the Imperial Concubine is about to give birth, the relationship between the Imperial Concubine and the Emperor will surely improve after the little prince is born.
Things are clearly getting better, so why does Ling'er look so worried?
"Madam Li, I just feel useless."
How could that be? Nanny Li was puzzled. "Since you came, the Queen has been much happier. You are a very popular person in our Yonghe Palace."
In Yonghe Palace, Ling'er is the only one who has the merit of winning the favor of the Imperial Concubine.
Ji Xingyao twitched the corners of his mouth.
She just said it casually, how could she expect Li Ma to understand.
She raised her head and looked at the sky.
The sky after the rain was incredibly blue. From time to time, black swallows flew across the sky, cutting the entire blue sky into two halves.
Ji Xingyao wiped his face and forced himself to dispel the irritability in his heart.
Wen Yuan's hopes weigh on her, and she cannot collapse before Wen Yuan.
In the afternoon, she went to see Eunuch Zhou again, trying to find hope, but the answer she got was the same as before.
The only way out is blocked.
Ji Xingyao pinched her palms. She didn't want to go back and didn't dare to look at Wen Yuan's disappointed eyes.
There were red marks on her palms, almost bleeding, but she felt nothing.
I just feel incompetent.
Walking numbly, Ji Xingyao unknowingly came to the vicinity of Mingyue Palace.
Because she was distracted, she had been standing at the gate of Mingyue Palace for a while when she realized it.
"What are you doing here?" The poor Taifeng pronunciation sounded very questioning.
Ji Xingyao looked up and saw that it was Amire.
After not seeing him for a few days, Amire seemed like a completely different person. He had two big dark circles under his eyes, which made him look like a national treasure, the panda.
Before Ji Xingyao could make up an excuse, Amire suddenly pulled out a whip and swung it at Ji Xingyao.
I go!
Ji Xingyao dodged nimbly.
However, the second whip followed closely.
Fortunately, Ji Xingyao is an athlete with excellent physical fitness. With her flexible movements, she avoided several fatal whips.
As she hid, she wondered why Amire suddenly went crazy.
After all, she was a first-class maid in the imperial concubine's palace. How dare she attack without saying a word?
Amire swung the whip frantically. Ji Xingyao managed to dodge the first few blows, but when his luck ran out, he was still whipped.
A burning pain came over her instantly, and she broke out in a sweat.
No wonder Xueyan couldn't even walk after being whipped by her.
This whip is different from ordinary whips. It must have been made with special craftsmanship. Once it is touched, the skin and flesh will be torn apart.
Ji Xingyao covered the wound on his arm and stared at Amire's whip.
It would be better if the target of the whip was Wen Yuan.
At the beginning, Wen Yuan used the [Space Teleport] function in order to see her for the last time. If this function was still retained, it would be easy to teleport into Amire's room in the middle of the night and kill someone with a borrowed knife.
Ji Xingyao: [System, system, are you there? ]
System: [Hello, the most expensive VIP private guest, I am here.]
Ji Xingyao: [Can I purchase the "Space Teleport" function? ]
System: [Of course you can, but sorry, your balance cannot be paid.]
All of Ji Xingyao's rewards were awarded by the system, which knew Ji Xingyao's financial situation better than she did herself.
Ji Xingyao gritted his teeth: [Can I exchange it for something else? ]
System: [Okay. 】
Ji Xingyao: [What?]
System: [Your lifespan.]
Ji Xingyao: [......]
System: [You can redeem ten years of your real-world lifespan for the "Space Teleport" function. Once redeemed, it cannot be returned or exchanged.]
Ji Xingyao had plenty of time to think, and she asked without hesitation: "Can I give this function to Wen Yuan for free?"
System: [Yes. However, this system would like to remind you that ten years of life is a very high price to pay. Please consider this carefully.]
Ten years of life.
Ji Xingyao smiled without any reluctance.
If her normal lifespan was a hundred, it would seem acceptable for her to die at ninety. Ten years of life in exchange for the rest of Wen Yuan's life would be a good deal.
The smile on Ji Xingyao's face directly stimulated Amire.
"How dare you laugh, bitch."
The whip was swung by Amire, leaving an afterimage.
Ji Xingyao was already injured, and the pain made her not as flexible as before.
The second whip landed on her calf, and Ji Xingyao's legs suddenly went limp, and she half-knelt on the ground.
However, at this time, most of her energy was focused on redeeming system rewards.
Ji Xingyao: [I am willing to exchange ten years of my life for "space teleportation."]
System: [Please confirm, VIP, ten years of lifespan exchanged for "Space Teleportation."]
Ji Xingyao: [Indeed...]
Before she could finish her words, she was suddenly hugged by someone, and a familiar scent touched her nose.
At the same time, Amire's pupils contracted violently, and he swung the whip without having time to retract it, and it hit Li Heng hard.
"Your Highness..." Amire threw the whip away helplessly, and the ferocity in his eyes turned into fear.
A muffled groan sounded in my ears.
Ji Xingyao turned around in surprise and saw Li Heng's profile, which showed him enduring pain.
"Ling'er, how are you?"
Li Heng held her shoulders carefully, as if she were a precious piece of porcelain, afraid that he would accidentally bump into her.
Suddenly, the blood on Ji Xingyao's arm stung Li Heng's eyes.
"You are most afraid of pain." Li Heng murmured.
His eyes were bloodshot. After slowly putting Ji Xingyao down, he stood up and walked towards Amire.
Amir backed away in fear until his back hit the wall and he had nowhere to go.
The big palm pinched Amire's slender neck.
"Cough cough..."
Li Heng almost killed her. Amire's eyes bulged out of their sockets and she felt that her neck would be strangled by Li Heng in the next second.
The situation changed drastically in an instant.
"Your Highness, Your Highness." Ji Xingyao ignored his injuries, struggled to get up and held his arm.
The veins on the arm under the palm were bulging, like a solid wall that could not be shaken at all.
"Prince, let go." Ji Xingyao shouted loudly.
"She is the Princess of Southern Xinjiang. Your Majesty, please wake up."
In a hurry, Ji Xingyao forgot to switch his voice and shouted directly in his natural voice.
Li Heng's heart was gently squeezed by someone.
His anger gradually dissipated, he loosened his hands, and looked at Ling'er with tears in his eyes.
Ji Xingyao didn't realize at this moment that she had made a mistake. Her attention was all on Amire.
Amire collapsed on the ground with his eyes rolled back.
She...isn't going to die.
