"Could it be that in your heart, I am so wretched and want these things so much?" Qian Ruming questioned Qing Lan in a tone he had never used before. There was no doubt that he was hurt.

"Then what do you want? That's all I can give you." Qing Lan spoke coldly, not moved by the change in Qian Ru's expression.

"I want your heart! As long as we get rid of Gui Luosha, I hope that you can follow me out of the Imperial City and stay by my side for the rest of your life. " Qian Ruming believed that one day, Qing Lan would find out how good she was and sincerely fall in love with him.

"I can't leave with you right now. Duan Zitong still has something that she hasn't done yet." Qing Lan was prepared to perish together with Qian Ru. However, she couldn't bear to part with the figure of Huang Baixue. If she could make him happy, she would feel at ease even if she died.

"But for a time." Qian Ru Ming's gaze turned slightly cold as the scene of Qing Lan secretly kissing Xiao Yuxuan surfaced in his mind. His heart suddenly hurt.

"Three months. If we are still alive after taking revenge, I, Qing Lan, will definitely leave with you after three months. No matter where you want to go, I will accompany you. "If you don't agree, I don't need you to interfere," Qing Lan said firmly.

"It's a deal, but I want to remind you, I love you, wholeheartedly. If I see you tangled up with that man, you know my punishment, I won't let you go if I beat you and scold you, but if I make you unable to get out of bed for three days, I still have the strength to do so!" Qian Ru Ming said in a ruthless tone.

"Speak, what is this?" The coldness in Qing Lan's disrespectful eyes was clear as she asked doubtfully.

"This is only a Gu worm, it's called 'Hei Hei' is the treasure my master passed down to me. This Gu worm contains a thousand poisons, if Hei Hei is placed on Gui Luosha's body, even if it doesn't touch his skin, Gui Luosha will still die from the poison, and there's no cure. Master said that this thing is for our survival. Today, I will pass it to you so that it can become familiar with your aura. This way, when you release it, it won't hurt you. " As Qian Ruming spoke, he passed the glass bottle to Qing Lan.

"Really?" Qing Lan suspiciously looked at the glass bottle in her hand, it was hard to imagine that such a small Gu worm could kill Gui Luosha.

"Even if I do not take responsibility for you, I will not use my life to joke around. At that time, I will take Gui Luosha's life with you." Qian Ru Ming said firmly.

"In that case, we'll meet in two days at the Spring Festival. You can leave now." As Qing Lan spoke, she kept the glass bottle in her bosom, and continued to look at Qian Ruming with an icy gaze.

"You want me to leave just like that? Forget it, we will have more than enough time in the future. " Even though she was reluctant to part with him, Qian Ruming still turned around and left. As she watched that petite figure suddenly disappear into the night, Qing Lan couldn't help but smile foolishly as she walked towards the imperial hospital.

After about an hour, Qing Lan finally returned to the Phoenix Storage Pavilion.

"What took you so long?" Duan Zitong was obviously rather impatient.

"Reporting to the princess, after I took the Five Rock Powder, I went to the imperial kitchens and prepared some food and wine. This kind of thing can only have the best effect if placed in wine." Qing Lan placed the tray on the table and took out a paper bag from her bosom. She placed the medicinal foam in the paper bag in front of Duan Zitong and mixed it with the wine pot.

"Well done! This is a mistake on my part. " Duan Zitong's eyes lit up. When Qinglan was done preparing everything, she personally carried the tray towards the Tutor Hall.

Qing Lan quietly stood at the entrance of the Phoenix Storage Pavilion and watched Duan Zitong walk into the Tutor Manor. It would take at least an hour before the medicinal effects of the pill would take effect. She could only wait for now.

"Yuxuan?" Duan Zitong lightly pushed open the door and stepped into the Tutor Manor. Wherever her gaze passed, she couldn't see Xiao Yuxuan. Her heart trembled as she quickly entered the inner chamber with a tray in her hand. Only when she saw her tall figure leaning against the window did she feel at ease.

"Yu Xuan, why are you here?" "It's so easy for me to find her …" Duan Zitong pouted coquettishly as she placed the tray on the table and walked over to Xiao Yuxuan.

The night sky was clear, and the moon was quietly suspended in the sky, emitting a gentle light. Perhaps in this world, the only thing that he and Duan Mu Yan had in common was the moon.

"This moon is so beautiful. Yuxuan, it's rare for people to be together like this. Why don't we drink a few cups?" "How about it?" A greedy light shone in Duan Zitong's eyes. As long as she could become husband and wife with Xiao Yuxuan, she would accept it no matter how despicable her methods were.

"It's already so late. Princess, you should go back." "Yuxuan really isn't in the mood to drink with the princess." Xiao Yuxuan refused without even glancing at Duan Zitong.

Suddenly, her heart felt like it was being viciously tugged at by someone. Duan Zitong was about to get angry, but she managed to suppress her rage. As long as Xiao Yuxuan drank the wine in the pot, even one sip, her goal would be achieved.

"Don't worry, since you like to admire the moon, then let me accompany you. It has been a long time since I have admired the moon since I have been in the palace, and in fact, before royal father found us, my brother and I went to the dock to find work for the mufei. I remember one time, in order to earn more money, my brother and I carried a bag that was much heavier than ours onto the boat." Unfortunately, after falling down a few times, the bag was cut open and all the food spilled out. "Until mufei comes to find us …" Her clear eyes sparkled with a sparkling light. In the days before the Empress Dowager passed away, Qin Yu Die did indeed bring along Duan Zitong and Duan Xingyi to lead a tragic and miserable life.

Xiao Yuxuan subconsciously looked at Duan Zitong's tearful eyes. At least for now, he didn't feel that Duan Zitong was lying.

"Is this the reason why you are jealous of Mu Yan?" As soon as Xiao Yuxuan finished speaking, he realized that he had misspoken. Just as he was about to shift his gaze, he heard Duan Zitong admitting it.

"That's right, but I'm not doing it for myself. Those hardships mean nothing to me, as long as we are able to reunite. No matter how much pain I suffer, I can endure it, even if the reunion doesn't include my father. But just because of a single sentence from Ling Ziyan, mufei was unable to fulfill her wish to meet her father even in death! "That's why I hate you!" Duan Zitong was willing to pick out the scars herself, so she wanted to win Xiao Yuxuan's sympathy.

"Mu Yan told me about this matter. Riko did not inform me at all, and no one knows the truth about what happened back then. It's unfair for you to hate her blindly like this." Xiao Yuxuan's sword-like eyebrows creased, but her opinion of Duan Zitong had changed.

"Perhaps. On the day of my marriage with you, all my hatred had disappeared like smoke into thin air. Although I no longer have any enmity towards Third Sister, I am unable to live in peace with her. "Yu Xuan …" Duan Zitong's tears flickered as she turned to look at Xiao Yuxuan.

"You … What are you thinking of? " Xiao Yuxuan felt the fire in Duan Zitong's eyes and immediately retracted his gaze, continuing to gaze at the bright moon in the distance.

"I know, your relationship with Third Sister isn't like one or two years, so it's much more difficult to make you forget about her than it is to make you live, so I won't force you, no matter how long it takes, I'm willing to wait, I just hope that you won't reject my good intentions, I just want to drink with you, of course, if you don't want to return to the Phoenix Storage Pavilion it's fine, but it's best if you don't let others know, otherwise I won't be able to explain it to my royal father." As she spoke, Duan Zitong returned to the square table and filled up the wine cup. She was well aware of the effects of the Five Rock Powder, so she poured a cup for herself as well before walking over to Xiao Yuxuan's side.

"Yuxuan, I understand what you're thinking, but I hope you can give me some warmth. Even if we don't have any feelings for each other, we're still friends, right?" Duan Zitong looked at Xiao Yuxuan devoutly and passed the wine cup over.

Speechless, Xiao Yuxuan looked at the wine cup that Duan Zitong handed over and pondered for a long time before finally accepting it.

"Thank you …" A drop of sparkling liquid fell from the corner of her eye. Before Xiao Yuxuan could reply, Duan Zitong had already finished the wine in his cup. When Xiao Yuxuan saw this, he inwardly sighed and drank the wine from her wine cup into his stomach.

"Yuxuan, let's sit over here and drink …" Even though Duan Zitong wanted to reach out to pull Xiao Yuxuan away, Xiao Yuxuan avoided him skillfully. Even so, Xiao Yuxuan followed Duan Zitong's instructions and sat down at the table. Xiao Yuxuan remained silent, while Duan Zitong continued to pour wine for him.

"Princess... "I'm sorry, but the amount of wine Yuxuan has is lacking, so I can't keep you company any longer." Xiao Yuxuan hadn't forgotten the reason for their relationship that night. Only after Xiao Yuxuan finished speaking did Duan Zitong suddenly crawl onto the table and fall asleep.

"Princess... Clear Orchid... "Qingqing …" Xiao Yuxuan had originally wanted Qing Lan to help Duan Zitong into the room, but before she could finish, she fell down as well.

After about an hour, Qing Lan lightly knocked on the door, but no one answered. Qing Lan knew that the medicine had worked, so she looked around to make sure no one was around before suddenly opening the door and entering. In the inner room, Duan Zitong and Xiao Yuxuan had long since gone to sleep and were unconscious. For the sake of not arousing suspicion, Qinglan immediately helped Duan Ziteng onto the bed and took off her outer garment. Although she didn't want to see any relationship between Xiao Yuxuan and Duan Zitong, she was still his servant girl. In the next three months, she would have to rely on Duan Zitong to get close to Xiao Yuxuan so that they wouldn't have to marry each other.

After settling Duan Ziteng down, Qinglan slowly walked to Xiao Yuxuan's side. Seeing her snow-white clothes, Qinglan felt her heart quicken. The moment her hands made contact with Xiao Yuxuan's body, she felt an unprecedented throbbing sensation wrap around her. Qing Lan carefully helped Xiao Yuxuan onto the bed and gently untied the belt at her waist. At this moment, Qing Lan's face was as red as a persimmon.

"I'm sorry, this is all I can do for you …" Qing Lan lightly pulled Xiao Yuxuan's hand onto Duan Zitong's waist before she reluctantly left the Tutor Hall.
