Realizing Feng Yunzheng's intention, Lian Yue's heartbeat suddenly became extremely rapid. Her face was about to burn up as she involuntarily pursed her lips and tightened her grip — —
She had never been so nervous, had never thought of this step, and her breathing quickened.
Feng Yunzheng felt Lian Yue's nervousness. Finally, when there was only a small distance between their lips, he opened his eyes and stopped. Looking at her ear which was so red that it was about to drip blood, he looked at her for a long time — —
He finally slowly stepped back and gently caressed the hair on her forehead. Then, with his back leaning against the carriage, he placed his hands on his chest and closed his eyes, saying:
"I'll sleep here for a while. I'll come back to the manor later."
Lian Ruyue saw that he closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep. She quietly let out a sigh of relief while covering her chest with her hands —
What happened to her? She should have pushed him away without hesitation and kicked him out of the carriage. She should have been scolding him for being a retainer. Why did she … He was actually foolishly waiting to not move at all!
What was the difference between her and an ordinary girl?
She had come back to live her life for revenge. She had said before that she would not be moved in this life. She would not be moved in this one, she would not love, she would not love, she would live this lonely life, and it would be enough to see her enemies go to hell one by one.
How could she …
"In this life, there is no hope for the crown prince to reestablish his position." Lian Ruyue was in the midst of indulging in her fantasies, blushing from not knowing what to do. Suddenly, Feng Yunzheng spoke. When he spoke, his eyes were still closed, and his thick eyelashes formed a fan-shaped shadow under his eyelids.
In this life? Lian Yue's heart skipped a beat when she heard those three words. She opened her eyes wide and raised her head to look at the man in front of her in surprise. Her palms started to heat up and her mouth opened slightly, but no words came out.
"Since the re-establishment of the crown prince has already changed, I wonder if the fate of Eleven will change in this life. I still don't know how she died in her previous life, and furthermore, there is no memorial tablet for her in Supreme Harmony Hall." Feng Yunzheng continued to speak with his eyes closed. His voice was occasionally calm, as if he was narrating an extremely ordinary matter.
"Fourth Royal Brother must not understand why we know so many secrets. In this lifetime, it will be too difficult for him to ascend to the throne …" Feng Yunzheng continued.
Even Moon's heartbeat suddenly accelerated. The blood in his entire body seemed to boil as the hairs on his body stood up!
"Your Highness, you, how did you know this? How did you know …" The crown prince, Feng Ming, had been reinstated while the eleventh princess had passed away at a young age. All of this happened in her previous life, and only a reincarnated person like her would know about this.
Could it be that Ninth Prince also …
In her mind, she recalled the scene of Lian Shiya carrying a human head in front of her in her previous life.
Her whole body was burning hot, and her heart felt as if it was being stabbed by a sharp weapon. Her breathing became more and more rapid, and she was almost unable to breathe.
"Ninth Prince, is that you?" Finally, she asked. Two streams of cold tears flowed down her pure white face. She looked deeply at the man before her through her misty eyes …
His tears also slowly rolled down from his tightly shut eyes.
Hearing her words, he slowly opened his eyes and looked at her. It was as if he had seen his entire past life. He choked with sobs as he said, "Your red veil has fallen."
Lian Ru Yue's heart shook violently. These were the words he had said to her the day she married Feng Qianyue, when her red hair was blown away by the wind and landed in his hands.
He remembered the day she got married, he was dressed in a white brocade robe and his sleeves were fluttering in the wind. He had a purple and gold crown on his head and his whole body was emitting a cold and noble aura.
She was so nervous that she almost stopped breathing. Her face was red and hot, and her earlobes seemed to be about to drip with blood. This was the first time she was so close to a man other than Feng Qianyue, and for a moment, she forgot to take back her lost head.
He smiled and slowly lifted the hood back over her head. When the red cap was slowly lowered, his face slowly disappeared from her sight, so she didn't know what expression he had on his face. She seemed to hear a soft sigh from him, but it didn't seem to be there.
"After we go back, ask the imperial physician to make you some ointment and apply it. Don't touch the water, don't take things, ask the palace maid to help while we eat …"
"This handkerchief can be used to wipe away tears, but it's better to use it to wipe away blood. No one will ever be able to see your tears. And blood will hurt, won't it?"
Feng Yunzheng continued to speak. As Lian Ruyue listened, her cheeks streamed with tears. Her hands tightly covered her mouth; she was afraid that she would cry …
This was what he had told her in his previous life! She still remembered it clearly.
After that battle with Lian Shiya, she suddenly felt both physically and mentally exhausted. She became dispirited and even developed the thought of giving up the throne, staying away from the Imperial Palace, and staying away from all that was going on.
She ordered the palace maids and eunuchs by her side to withdraw as she slowly walked along the imperial garden's least visited pathway. A light breeze blew, and pieces of peach blossoms floated down from the roadside as she thought back to her grudge with Feng Qianyue, including Shiya. Her heart ached to the point that she almost couldn't breathe.
Normally, she would not show any signs of weakness in front of others, because she was the Empress and the master of the Six Palaces.
But at this moment, when there was no one by her side, she could no longer control her emotions. She stopped walking, leaned her back against the rock garden, and closed her eyes. Tears of exhaustion and sadness rolled down her ice-cold face.
Right at this moment, the Ninth Prince appeared in front of her, bandaged her wounds in panic, and told her not to be weak or cower, that she would rather let the enemy see her blood than let the enemy see her tears.
It's him! It's him! It really was him!
"Ninth Prince, it's you, it's you, it's you right? You didn't die, right?" Lian Ru Yue finally cried out. Her tears wet her face and also wet Feng Yunzheng's heart.
Although, in the past, there were many times she suspected that the Ninth Prince had some clever plans, she never thought that he would be reborn along with her!
The miracle of rebirth had not only happened to her, but also to him.
"It's me, Yue Er. I'm here too. You're not alone." Feng Yunzheng raised his hand and wiped away the tears on her face bit by bit.
Lian Ruyue could no longer control herself as she laid in his embrace, crying out loud.
Her heart clenched in pain, but she was also very happy.
Feng Yunzheng closed his eyes and tightly embraced the person in his embrace. He used his strength to almost massage her into his body. Tears fell from his face onto her hair.
