Chapter 36 Seriously ill
Chapter 36 Seriously ill
Zhou Shiya turned her head and looked at Nanny Zhou: "You should train her well these few days. After my birthday banquet, when Zhou Lingge is left out, let her appear at the right time and replace Zhou Lingge..."
Nanny Zhou also thought this was a good plan, and she nodded in agreement.
Zhou Lingge had no idea that Zhou Shiya had already formulated a plan that would doom her.
She was so tormented by the pain that she barely slept well that night.
She regretted it countless times in her heart.
If she had known it would hurt so much, she would not have blocked the blow for Qin Feiling.
However, when she saw the imperial edict Qin Feiling drafted to confer the title of consort on her, she no longer regretted it.
She suffered a minor skin injury and was awarded the position of a concubine.
She didn't lose out either.
Qin Feiling even became more tolerant of her.
No matter how she behaves and refuses to sleep with him, he will not be angry.
Zhou Lingge stayed in Wolong Palace for three days until her wounds healed and scabbed over, then she returned to her Yuanchen Palace.
These past few days, Qin Feiling had been refraining from touching her.
She was deliberately using the wound to test his patience.
Unexpectedly, he actually endured it.
It's not that I just want to have sex with her.
They played chess, read books, and painted together... and spent a few days living a simple and pure life.
When Qin Feiling went to court that morning, he bit her viciously a few times and panted in her ear, "This is the first time I've ever shared a bed with a concubine, just chatting under the covers."
"Jia Fei, no matter what, you have to compensate me tonight."
Thinking of Qin Feiling's lustful and suffocated look, Zhou Lingge couldn't help but smile.
This bastard...deserves it!
As soon as she returned to Yuanchen Palace in a sedan chair, Qingying knelt in front of her with red eyes.
"Your Majesty...I received a letter from Li Qing, saying that Young Master Han is dying."
With shaking hands, she held the letter in front of Zhou Lingge.
"This is Young Master Han's handwritten letter, and it's stained with his blood. Your Majesty, I haven't forged it this time."
Zhou Lingge's heart suddenly sank.
She tried her best to control her emotions and appear calm.
She took the envelope calmly and unfolded it slowly.
Familiar handwriting, with a smell of blood, rushed towards her.
Zhou Lingge's pupils trembled slightly.
There was nothing superfluous in the letter, only one sentence: Morning and evening, evening and morning.
Zhou Lingge closed her eyes and took a deep breath.
She raised her eyes and looked at Qingying: "Don't you like Han Mubai? Then I will send you out of the palace and send you to him."
"If he can't make it, then you will be buried with him... I will have fulfilled your infatuation with him."
Qingying was stunned and looked at Zhou Lingge in disbelief.
"Your Majesty...you...you're not worried about Young Master Han at all?"
"He suddenly became seriously ill because of you."
Zhou Lingge looked around the empty hall. She couldn't help but curl her lips slightly: "For me?"
"Oh, you really think highly of me. Is his serious illness really because he can't get the love he wants and is living a life worse than death? In this world, everyone puts their own interests first. No one will lose their life for another person."
She didn't believe that Han Mubai was seriously ill because of her.
He is now suffering from illness, and it is very likely that someone has plotted against him!
He can't even protect himself, so what's the point of loving her?
In her previous life, she was imprisoned and she had placed all her hopes on Han Mubai.
But since she entered the palace until her death... she had never seen him!
Later, Zhou Shiya told her that Han Mubai had died a long time ago... After she was reborn, she knew very clearly that even if they were in love... what was the use?
He couldn't even protect himself, how could he protect her?
What is love in the face of life and death, wealth and honor, and high status?
In this life, she doesn't want to be involved in the word love again.
Where was her beloved when she was in despair and pain?
Haha... She won't be stupid again, nor will she fall in love easily for anyone again!
Qingying's eyes were filled with tears, her eyes full of pain and despair: "Your Majesty... I don't ask you to visit Master Han, I just ask you to write him a letter..."
"Young Master Han truly loves you... He's now bedridden, calling out your name day and night. Madam Han originally disliked you, but now she's relented. She wants you to write back, just as a way to give Young Master Han a thought... a motivation to keep him alive."
Zhou Lingge sneered and said, with Han Mubai's ability, how could he possibly deliver the letter to her so smoothly?
It turns out that Mrs. Han helped in this.
Mrs. Han used to dislike her the most and strongly opposed her having any contact with Han Mubai.
She even talked to her in private, humiliating and trampling on her... She still couldn't forget the look in Madam Han's eyes when she looked at her, which was full of contempt and hatred.
Mrs. Han felt that this flower covered in mud would defile her pure and elegant son!
In her eyes, it seemed that no woman in this world was worthy of her son.
Zhou Lingge's originally cheerful mood gradually faded.
She gently stroked the delicately embroidered palace dress. "Mrs. Han is truly bold. For the sake of her son, she actually dared to deliver a letter to me so blatantly. Is she trying to drag the entire Han family down with her to hell?"
Qingying was very afraid of Zhou Lingge. She trembled slightly as she cautiously defended Madam Han: "Madam Han said that she had offended Your Majesty many times in the past. I hope you will be magnanimous and not hold it against her. She was wrong... I hope Your Majesty will give her a chance to atone for her sins..."
"She said that Young Master Han's heart towards the Queen is sincere. She hopes that the Queen can put aside the past grudges and forgive her for Young Master Han's sake."
Zhou Lingge no longer had any patience to discuss Han Mubai's affairs with Qingying.
Concubines in the palace are not allowed to have any relationship with men outside the palace. Once someone finds out about it, it will be a serious crime and the entire family will be executed.
She wouldn't be so stupid as to put herself in a deadly situation again.
Without any hesitation, Zhou Lingge immediately brought the letter to the candle and slowly lit it.
The light of the flame danced on her beautiful face.
Her eyes were deep, like a river frozen for a thousand years. "Forgive? Haha...if she dies to atone for her sins, perhaps I will forgive her."
Qingying became anxious and rushed over to stop it.
"Your Majesty, please don't. This was written by Young Master Han despite his illness, struggling to get up... This is a token of his love. How could you... How could you just... destroy it like this?"
Zhou Lingge's eyes were like knives, stabbing straight at Qingying.
"I am now Consort Jia... I am the Emperor's woman... Whether Young Master Han is dead or alive, what does it have to do with me?"
