Nalan Jie sighed: "Sigh, that child Rongxuan has always been unwell since he was young. I wonder if he will be able to make it out this time."

"Your majesty, don't worry. You've still got it. How could something happen to the King Xuan?" What did the old emperor mean by that, was he reminding her that Nalan Rongxuan didn't have long to live? Why did she sound so angry?

The old emperor was extremely angered by Yue Luoxue's words, but he could only endure it. Waving his hand to let Yue Luoxue leave, Yue Luoxue no longer wanted to stay any longer, she turned and left.

When they arrived at the door, she deliberately took note of it and noticed that Qiu Tang was not waiting outside. Yue Luoxue casually asked the other palace maid who was on duty, but was informed that Qiu Tang was not feeling well, and then went back to rest.

Yue Luoxue naturally did not believe in such an excuse. Regarding where Qiu Tang had gone to, Yue Luoxue already had a rough idea, and was afraid that she had gone to Imperial Concubine Wan's palace.

She had already checked before, and it seemed like the fire lotus grass was showing signs of regaining its life. It seemed that Qiu Tang had put in a lot of effort to take care of it.

He went straight back to his residence, pushed open the door and saw the empty room. Yue Luoxue's heart still skipped a beat because Young Master Rong was not here, although she had thought about it long ago, how could someone like Young Master Rong be waiting for her to return.

Yue Luoxue let out a light sigh and went to rest on the bed. Just as she was about to sit on the bedside, her body was pulled suddenly into a familiar embrace. Complicated emotions quickly spread through Yue Luoxue's heart, making her feel at a loss.

Young Master Rong felt that Yue Luoxue's actions were abnormal, and his tone revealed gentleness. "What, are you unhappy to see me?"

"I just didn't expect you to still be here." Yue Luoxue's tone carried a tinge of sorrow, and somewhat blaming himself for not being able to meet his expectations.

She had always been determined to draw a clear line between her and the Young Master Rong, but the moment he appeared, as long as he treated her tenderly, she would not be able to control herself. This feeling of being unable to control herself was truly too depressing.

When Young Master Rong saw Yue Luoxue's dejected little face, he could not help but be stumped for words. He opened his mouth to ask, "Did the emperor bully you?"

"He doesn't have that ability." As he talked about this topic, Yue Luoxue's tone was filled with grievance.

Don't have that kind of ability? That means... There was action, but no success? Young Master Rong clenched his fist tightly, the veins on the back of his hand bulged. Nalan Jie was really good!

Seeing that Young Master Rong had not spoken for a long time, Yue Luoxue raised her head and saw his pair of beautiful eyes filled with anger and killing intent. Was she angry for herself?

Young Master Rong pulled Yue Luoxue's broken hair to the back of his head, looked straight into her pair of clear black and white eyes, and spoke solemnly: "Luoxue, if you don't like your current life, I'll take you with me!"

"I'll take you with me!" looked at the dark eyes of the Young Master Rong and couldn't help but want to nod in agreement.

However, just as she was about to nod her head, Nalan Rongxuan's face suddenly flashed across her mind. She recalled their agreement and firmly shook her head: "I can't leave!"

The Young Master Rong raised his eyebrows, his pitch black eyes flashed with a strange light, making him confused. "You are not leaving because of Nalan Rongxuan?"

Yue Luoxue nodded her head heavily. To her, Nalan Rongxuan saved her life, and if not for Nalan Rongxuan, she wouldn't be where she is today. She had to live up to the promise she made all those years ago to help him get even, and at the same time take revenge!

All these years, what she had agreed upon with Nalan Rongxuan might not be as simple as mere agreement. She still did not understand what exactly had changed, but she knew very clearly — — Now was not the time for her to leave!

Seeing that Yue Luoxue was so firm, the light in Young Master Rong's eyes became somewhat meaningful. Whether it was happiness or anger, Yue Luoxue could not see through him.

However, on the other hand, when Young Master Rong saw Yue Luoxue's distinct black and white eyes flicker, seemingly carrying a luster that he could not see through, the bottom of his heart inexplicably panicked, as if he had been discovered by the little fox.

"Alright, rest." Young Master Rong reached out and placed his hands on the back of Yue Luoxue's head, pressing her down to his chest.

Yue Luoxue didn't struggle as she laid on his chest, sullenly saying, "Young Master Rong, you and King Xuan really have the same interests."

Nalan Rongxuan also liked to use this kind of posture to press himself in front of his chest. There were many things that looked simple but were difficult to communicate with;

Young Master Rong slightly narrowed his eyes, and said indifferently: "When you are in my embrace, I do not wish for you to think of other men."

Yue Luoxue's eyes flashed, and in the end, she didn't say anything. She didn't know if this hug made her feel at ease, but not long after, she actually fell asleep.

Young Master Rong looked at her face with his dark eyes. He extended his hand and tapped her nose as he said with a trace of love, "This cunning little fox."

When he woke up again, the heavens had already turned white, and the shadow of the Young Master Rong was no longer around him. Yue Luoxue's heart was feeling somewhat empty, he got up and left.

The fresh morning air was the clearest. When Yue Luoxue had nothing better to do, she wanted to go for a walk, but the moment she walked out of the Heart Nurturing Hall, she saw a familiar figure — Geng Qing!

Could it be that something had come up that early to look for the old emperor? Yue Luoxue walked quickly and arrived in front of Geng Qing: "Master Geng, you're early."

"Doctor Luo, this subject has an important matter to report to the emperor." Seeing his savior, Geng Qing respectfully bowed.

Geng Qing's face was still a little pale. It seemed that he had not fully recovered from the injury from that day, but seeing how he was putting in so much effort, he suddenly felt that his master was a pervert like the Nalan Jie, and had wasted such a good seedling.

Looking at the closed doors of the emperor's chambers, Yue Luoxue said, "Master Geng, the emperor has been lethargic lately, why don't you go to the side hall and wait for him?"

"No need, this subject can just wait here." Geng Qing did not waver in the slightest.

Yue Luoxue walked over, thought for a moment, then turned back and took out two pills, and said: Master Geng, this is a Blood Replenishing Pill, Master can take one first, from the doctor's point of view, Luoxue recommends that Master diagnose it as soon as possible.

Geng Qing received the exquisite blue and white porcelain bottle. His eyes flashed, and after thanking Yue Luoxue, he continued to wait at the entrance of the hall. Without saying anything else, Yue Luoxue walked towards the imperial garden.

She needed the morning dew to seep into the flowers and medicine, so it was the most suitable place for her in the Imperial Palace's garden.

In the early morning, the scenery in the imperial garden was extremely beautiful, with sparkling and translucent dew rolling off the delicate petals. Yue Luoxue took out a small bottle from her waist and patiently gathered the morning dew.

It was still early in the morning, and the imperial garden was completely empty and completely quiet. When Yue Luoxue walked to the depths of the flower bush, she suddenly heard faint sounds of conversation, and it was possible that they were too far away.
