After His Majesty's rebirth, he personally taught the queen to abuse the scumbag

Cheng Mingran just sat quietly beside the bed. Ji Lingzhou felt inexplicably uneasy. If he really misunderstood just now, then...

The imperial physician quickly rushed to the Zichen Palace, but no matter how many people checked, they all said that the medicine was just an ordinary nourishing medicine.

Ji Lingzhou's heart sank a little bit. He looked at the palace maid and said, "You just said that this medicine was the contraceptive medicine that Concubine Shu asked you to prepare."

When the maid heard this, she was so scared that she fell to the ground: "Your Majesty! I dare not lie. I... maybe I brought the wrong thing. I..." The maid said without thinking. It's impossible. This is obviously a contraceptive soup...

Cheng Mingran's eyes also fell on this palace maid. It was undeniable that she did have someone prepare contraceptive medicine. But this palace maid... she had never seen her before, and she had specifically instructed that if Ji Lingzhou was around, she should not bring the medicine over.

There is something wrong with this maid...

Ji Lingzhou's face became even more unhappy after listening to the palace maid's words, but he did not make a conclusion immediately. Instead, he looked at Cheng Mingran: "What do you want to say?" he asked.

Cheng Mingran looked sad: "Since Your Majesty doesn't believe it, what else do you want me to say now?"

She looked at Ji Lingzhou: "Your Majesty, do you want to kill me?" she asked again.

Ji Lingzhou paused slightly. The marks on Cheng Mingran's neck were particularly obvious. He had indeed lost control a little. The regret in his heart was getting stronger and stronger. He...

Cheng Mingran ignored Ji Lingzhou, and didn't care what he was thinking at the moment. Her eyes fell on the broken ceramic doll on the ground.

Ji Lingzhou also saw that after the doll broke, many small pieces of paper fell out of it. Under Cheng Mingran's gaze, he slowly approached the fragments on the ground.

After all, it was Ji Lingzhou who broke the doll himself...

Ji Lingzhou picked up a note, opened it, and his body stiffened instantly.

The first note had the simplest words written on it: "Hello, Brother Lingzhou."

Ji Lingzhou looked at the other notes on the ground, and suddenly an idea popped up in his mind. These... He didn't hesitate too much and immediately picked up the second one. The words written on the second piece of paper were also very simple - there was a small "Zhou" written in the corner of the "Xinyue" note.

The girl had no one to vent her worries, and this porcelain doll became her only hope. All her worries were put into the doll's belly.

Ji Lingzhou put away the paper in his hand. He really didn't know...

"Your Majesty..." Li Sheng, who was watching from the side, was also worried.

Ji Lingzhou felt a pain in his heart. He looked at Cheng Mingran, but Cheng Mingran's face was expressionless. He always gave him the impression that she didn't care about anything.

This realization made Ji Lingzhou feel panicky, as if he had suddenly lost something very important to him. He wanted to grab it, but he couldn't.

"I……"

"It's good that Your Majesty smashed this thing. It's not a bad thing that things from the past are shattered today." Cheng Mingran said.

Ji Lingzhou frowned. What did it mean that the past was shattered? Did she want to write off all the things that happened in the past?

He would never allow it!

"I was too impatient today. This ceramic doll... I will have someone make one exactly the same for you." Ji Lingzhou said.

"The Empress Dowager once said the same thing to me, but where can I find an identical doll? Besides, I don't need such a doll now," said Cheng Mingran.

"Are you blaming me?" Ji Lingzhou suddenly asked.

Cheng Mingran looked at the ceramics on the ground: "I am not qualified. But... some things are too fragile, just like this ceramic. It will shatter into pieces with just a slight touch or a slight fall."

"What do you want to say?" Ji Lingzhou asked very directly.

"A complete piece of ceramic becomes like this after being dropped like this. Wouldn't a doll that was originally broken but then patched up and put together many times be even more fragile?" Cheng Mingran added.

Ji Lingzhou did not answer immediately, but just looked at the fragments scattered on the ground.

"If in the end we can't even piece it together, then is it really over?" Every word Cheng Mingran said made Ji Lingzhou frown a little deeper.

Ji Lingzhou suddenly felt that the person in front of him seemed very strange. She was definitely not like this before. Cheng Mingran was always lifeless now, as if she had lost interest in everything and lost hope.

"Cheng Mingran" Ji Lingzhou called her name.

Cheng Mingran looked blank and didn't answer. Ji Lingzhou sat down next to her: "Do you really have to do this to me?"

Is this the case? Cheng Mingran felt bitter: "Between me and Your Majesty, Your Majesty always comes first, isn't it?"

Between the two of them, Ji Lingzhou always did whatever he wanted. In the past, he hated me getting close to him, so no matter how hard I tried, he was unwilling to look at me more.

Now, because he hates his alienation, I can only cater to him, please him, and even be forced to endure his plunder.

Ji Lingzhou choked, he... had nothing to say.

The atmosphere between the two of them became tense again, and the atmosphere in the room froze instantly. In the end, Ji Lingzhou sighed.

"Forget it...you have a good rest, I'll have someone send you back later." As soon as Ji Lingzhou finished speaking, Cheng Mingran's calm eyes seemed to show a slight fluctuation.

He said he would send himself back?

Before Cheng Mingran could confirm whether she had heard it wrong, Ji Lingzhou had already stood up and left Zichen Palace without looking back.

Cheng Mingran stared blankly at the direction he had left, all the emotions in her heart surged up and down, and because they were all mixed together, even she herself didn't know what mood she was in.

She looked at the ceramic doll on the ground again. Did he...really not remember anything? Cheng Mingran's eyes turned red. It was obviously the first ceramic doll he gave her...

Was she only five years old at that time? During the Lantern Festival, she insisted on pestering Ji Lingzhou to accompany her to the night market. At that time, they happened to pass by a small stall with many cute ceramic dolls on display.

She was young at the time, so she insisted that Ji Lingzhou buy them for her, and Ji Lingzhou really bought them, a pair. Then she gave one of them to Ji Lingzhou, saying it was for him...

After returning home, she put her porcelain doll on display and looked at it countless times every day, as if it were some rare treasure.
