Frost shines on Qingcheng

"Cough cough cough..." There was a violent coughing sound from Rong Yuexuan.Qiu Rui hurried to Ling Yan's bedside, and before she could do anything, Ling Yan vomited a mouthful of blood.

"Miss!" Qiu Rui exclaimed, looking at the scarlet blood at the corner of Ling Yan's mouth and her pale face, she was burning with anxiety.

Ling Yan was still coughing non-stop, and his whole body was very emaciated due to the pain.Qiu Rui supported her and gently stroked her back: "Miss, what's wrong with you? Why have you been so sick these past few months?"

Ling Yan leaned against the head of the bed, her lips turned white, and her originally beautiful amber eyes became dull.Her eyes were half open, too weak to speak a word.

Qiurui kept crying, and took out a handkerchief to wipe the blood from the corner of her mouth: "Miss, don't talk, I'll get you a glass of water."

Ling Yan stretched out her hand to stop her, but after a while her strength was exhausted, and her outstretched hand dropped again.

Qiu Rui sniffed, trying to restrain her emotions, but no matter how hard she forced herself not to cry, the tears kept falling.The water filled the cup, but she couldn't hold it anymore. The full teacup slipped from her hand and fell to the ground.The water splashed the ground, and her heart and the cup broke into pieces together.

Unable to suppress the suffering and fear she had endured during this time, Qiurui burst into tears.

Ling Yan turned her head, wanting to comfort Qiu Rui, but didn't know what to say.She also seemed to accept her fate, calmly waiting for her end.

Ling Yan is the most important person in Qiurui's life. She has been with her since she was a child, no matter whether she is displaced or trapped in this deep palace. She also has the drive to keep going.But now, Ling Yan's condition is getting worse, if she is gone, everything in the world will lose color and meaning to Qiu Rui.Instead of living alone in pain and loneliness, it is better to go with Ling Yan.

Just when she was tearing up her sleeves, a voice came from outside, saying that Zhao Yueyao had come.Qiu Rui hurriedly wiped away her tears, Zhao Yueyao came in, and she saluted.

Zhao Yueyao went to see Ling Yan, only to see that her face was haggard and thin, and she was in a very bad state.She sighed, since what happened to Shen Shuangzhao a few months ago, Ling Yan woke up with a heart attack and didn't think about eating or drinking.A month ago, she seemed to have contracted a more severe disease, and her body collapsed rapidly.

Zhao Yueyao watched her lose weight day by day, took her with her, and invited many doctors, but the doctors couldn't find out the reason and were helpless.

Half a month ago, Ling Yan asked to return to Rong Yuexuan to rest, and Zhao Yueyao agreed.I come to see her every day, but I see her withering every day.

"I'll ask the doctor to come over, you can't do this."

The doctor took the order and came over carefully to diagnose Ling Yan's pulse.Later, the doctor frowned more and more, and finally shook his head.

Seeing this, Zhao Yueyao sighed: "I shouldn't have forced you like this before."

Ling Yan drank some water, could barely speak, and asked to speak with Zhao Yueyao alone.Zhao Yueyao complied with her, and retreated left and right.

"Yan'er knows that time is short, and there is only one request." Ling Yan said.

"You said."

Ling Yan recalled the past: "After I die, I only hope that the city lord will bury me next to my parents. During my lifetime, our family may have too little fate and we don't get together much. I only hope that after death, we can be reunited as a family."

Zhao Yueyao pursed her lips tightly and nodded with a sigh.

Ling Yan smiled gratifiedly, and said again: "Although I know that the city lord kept me in the city from the beginning just to use me, I am still grateful for the kindness that the city lord has shown me. It is a pity that Yan'er is about to leave, and the city lord failed I wish." Zhao Yueyao's purpose was clear from the very beginning to Ling Yan, but she was cold-tempered, as if she had seen through the world long ago, and did not fight or grab, so she could endure the loneliness in this deserted Rong Yuexuan for so many years.

Zhao Yueyao did not refute, and put her hands under the quilt: "Maybe it's not that bad, maybe tomorrow I can find a miracle doctor to heal you."

Ling Yan closed her eyes: "If the city lord has this kind of thought, it is better to spend some effort to find out the whereabouts of the piano for Yan'er. It is the only thing left to me by my parents. I lost it, and I really blame myself .”

Zhao Yueyao said: "I also know that you have a grudge against me for harming Shen Shuangzhao, but from my point of view, Shen Shuangzhao broke into the inner city many times and plotted against her. I can't tolerate her. Besides, if you say something that Yaner doesn't want to hear, you The qin will be lost, and it must have something to do with her."

Ling Yan breathed with difficulty: "She is pure and kind by nature, I don't believe it. Besides, she has passed away long ago, so the city lord should stop talking about her."

Speaking of Shen Shuangzhao, Zhao Yueyao hated it so much.She kept hiding from Ling Yan that it was not the real Shen Shuangzhao who was executed by her at the beginning, because Shen Shuangzhao had been hidden somewhere by that damned jailer.She tried her best, but she still hasn't found the whereabouts of Shen Shuangzhao.

What made Zhao Yueyao even more intolerable was that Shen Shuangzhao turned out to be the evil seed of Shen Wanrong and Chu Xingzhi.No wonder when Zhao Yueyao saw her for the first time three years ago, she felt familiar. It turned out that it was just because she looked like her father.

As a result, Zhao Yueyao hated Shen Shuangzhao even more.She hated why she had to soften her heart and let her go.

"If you don't like me mentioning her, I don't say it." Zhao Yueyao said to Ling Yan.

Ling Yan nodded, she felt guilty towards Shen Shuangzhao.If she hadn't gone to Shuilan City without permission and met Shen Shuangzhao, the other party would not have been involved in her and Zhao Yueyao's affairs, and finally caused her to lose her life.

But it doesn't matter, she has also been punished, and she will leave this world soon.If he could meet Shen Shuangzhao after death, he would apologize to her.

Zhao Yueyao didn't dare to talk too much to her, for fear that she would run out of strength.He also ordered people to make some light food and corresponding soup so that Ling Yan could maintain his strength.At night, several doctors outside Rong Yuexuan took turns to guard.

It was night, in the bamboo forest behind Rong Yuexuan, a figure was stretched by the moonlight.

"This subordinate has met the young master." Lan Xin bowed.

Lu Qingrong turned her back arrogantly, and her cold voice made people feel unapproachable at night: "How?"

"The subordinates have done everything according to the young master's instructions." Lan Xin said cautiously.She was Lu Qingrong's pawn placed beside Zhao Yueyao, and she provided almost all the information Lu Qingrong obtained before.

Lu Qingrong lowered her eyelashes: "How is Ling Yan doing?"

"Today, my subordinate followed Zhao Yueyao to Rongyuexuan to see her. Ling Yan looked haggard. I'm afraid she will be..."

"Really? You've worked hard this month." Lu Qingrong said.A month ago, she sent a letter to Lan Xin, asking her to add medicine to Ling Yan's meal. As the intake increased, Ling Yan's health became worse day by day.

"The subordinates are loyal to the young master, and they should do all these things, the subordinates..."

Lu Qingrong interrupted her: "Okay, don't say compliments. You should pay attention to Ling Yan these few days, and if there is any change in the situation, please notify me immediately."

"Yes..." Lan Xin said to her.

After getting the information she needed, Lu Qingrong left: "That's all for today, you can go back."

"Then... where is the young master?" Lan Xin asked boldly.

Lu Qingrong's charming eyes looked at her, and the sharp feeling made Lan's heart shudder, and she immediately knelt down: "This subordinate is talking too much."

"It's good to know." Lu Qingrong ignored her and disappeared into the depths of the bamboo forest.

------------------------------------------------------------

On the island in the middle of the lake——

Shen Shuang turned over a page of the book with her fingers, only to realize that this was the last page of the book.

"It's over..." she muttered to herself.Thinking of this, she recalled what Lu Qingrong said a few days ago - "When you finish reading the medical book in your hand, I may come back to see you."

Shen Shuang stared at the book in a daze, obviously not... Lu Qingrong was clearly lying.The originally calm mood was easily broken by the thought of this seemingly unlikely agreement, Shen Shuangzhao closed the book, feeling like a mess.

For no reason, she began to hate Lu Qingrong again.It's fine for her to come to Shuilan City, and she can't bear to break into the island in the middle of the lake, after all, she can't stop Lu Qingrong.But, can't that person stay a little longer?He didn't tell himself the true purpose of coming to Shuilan City, so he just said some nonsense to fool himself.It was so inexplicable that I didn't even have a chance to ask her a proper question!

When Lu Qingrong appeared, she was at a loss, but when Lu Qingrong didn't appear, she felt tormented -- contradictory.

Shen Shuang scratched her heart with her claws, feeling uncomfortable all over because of Lu Qingrong's provocation.She sighed again, she was so poisoned in herself that she fell in love with a woman.

Just thinking about it, a breeze blows, bringing a little taste.Shen Shuangzhao frowned subconsciously, and then realized that the smell was very familiar.When I looked up, I saw the source of my troubles standing at the door.

"You..." Shen Shuangzhao stood up in shock.

"Me? How about me?" Lu Qingrong walked towards her without changing her smile.

"Aren't you making a sound when you walk?" Shen Shuangzhao just straightened her tongue, "It's the same as last time, she appeared in front of me without a sound." After speaking, she actually became annoyed.

Lu Qingrong was like a spring breeze, smug, and her words were extremely frivolous: "It's not because I walk silently, I'm afraid it's because Shuang'er is too absorbed in thinking about other things, and I don't even realize that someone has broken into your place."

Shen Shuangzhao gritted her teeth, and Lu Qingrong's smiling face was reflected in her black and white eyes.

"I don't know what Shuang'er is thinking, so focused..." Lu Qingrong walked to her side, speaking extremely playfully.

How could Shen Shuangzhao tolerate Lu Qingrong's prying into the secrets in her heart?Immediately, he built a defensive wall in his heart, not allowing Lu Qingrong's intrusion, and pretending to be calm, he said: "It has nothing to do with you."

Lu Qingrong didn't continue to explore, but her eyes were attracted by the books spread out on the desk. She picked up the book and said, "Have you finished reading it?"

Shen Shuangzhao realized something, and suddenly snatched the book from her hand: "Give it back to me."

Lu Qingrong slowly took off the veil in front of her, and Shen Shuangzhao clearly watched her playfully curling the corners of her lips. As the red lips opened and closed, Lu Qingrong said: "It seems that Shuang'er still remembers the agreement between you and me." , then - Shuang'er must have been so focused on thinking about me just now..."
