The afternoon sun shone warmly on the earth, but Murong Jingwan's bedroom was still shrouded in a faint layer of darkness.
A lazy murmur was heard particularly clearly in the silent palace.
The person on the bed couldn't help but move, and a cry of pain was heard immediately.
Murong Jingwan opened her sour eyes, her whole body ached, and the embarrassing scenes from yesterday flashed through her mind one by one. She was so... under Xuan Ningxuan's body...
Tears fell from the corners of his eyes, staining the hair scattered on the pillow.
Chills welled up from the bottom of her heart, and Murong Jingwan couldn't help but hug her body tightly. Xuan Ningxuan was so despicable.
The door of the palace was pushed open, and a group of palace maids walked in. Two palace maids were carrying a bathtub in their hands. The leading palace maid lowered her head slightly and said respectfully: "Queen, let the slaves take care of you to bathe."
"Go away." Murong Jingwan's voice became hoarse because of yesterday. She only said one word, but her throat felt like tearing pain.
The leading maid was extremely clever and immediately poured a glass of water and quickly fed Murong Jingwan to drink it.
Murong Jingwan greedily drank the cool water in the cup, the pain in her throat gradually eased, and the forgotten memories emerged in front of her eyes.
Murong Jingwan recalled her promise to Xuan Ningyi that she would drop everything and leave with her.
Murong Jingwan opened the brocade quilt and ran out of bed eagerly, but fell to the ground in embarrassment.
Is it too late to go see him now? Will he still be waiting for her in Lingyin Temple?
"Queen, let the slaves help you get on the bed." The maids standing on both sides said in a neither humble nor overbearing tone.
"I told you to get lost, don't you understand?" Murong Jingwan said bitterly with tears streaming down her face.
The maids were silent and respectfully exited Murong Jingwan's bedroom.
After struggling to stand up from the ground, Murong Jingwan slowly sat in the tub. She couldn't go to see Xuan Ningyi now, she couldn't go see Xuan Ningyi with this dirty body.
After bathing, Murong Jingwan chose a plain dress and put it on. She thought about the most serious problem, how should she leave the palace, and would Xuan Ningxuan let her leave the palace?
"Queen, are you awake?" Xuan Ningxuan's joyful voice sounded from behind, interrupting Murong Jingwan's thoughts.
Murong Jingwan slowly turned around, stared into Xuan Ningxuan's smiling eyes, and said word by word: "Your Majesty, I want to leave the palace."
"Where do you want the Queen to go?" Xuan Ningxuan sat down next to Murong Jingwan and asked with a smile.
"Lingyin Temple." Murong Jingwan said expressionlessly, but her eyes kept checking Xuan Ningxuan's expression.
"The queen wants to go to worship Buddha. I will immediately send a few guards to go with you." Xuan Ningxuan agreed, unable to hide his smile.
Murong Jingwan looked at Xuan Ningxuan suspiciously. She didn't expect that he would agree so readily. Could this be a trap?
But Murong Jingwan couldn't care anymore, she just wanted to see Xuan Ningyi quickly and explain to him. Even if this was a trap, she would die in the worst case.
"Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty." Murong Jingwan said respectfully.
Xuan Ningxuan stood up slowly and said softly: "Queen, go early and come back early."
Murong Jingwan nodded gently, but did not dare to look at Xuan Ningxuan, fearing that he would see the flaw.
Accompanied by the guards, Murong Jingwan left the palace and went straight to Lingyin Temple.
"You guys stay here and don't follow me." Murong Jingwan ordered coldly.
After getting rid of the guards, Murong Jingwan walked directly to the abbot's residence.
"Donor, you are finally here." The abbot seemed to have been waiting for Murong Jingwan to arrive.
"Abbott, may I ask, is fourth brother still in the temple?" Murong Jingwan asked worriedly, fearing that Xuan Ningyi had already left.
"Donor, please follow me." The abbot said slowly, with a hint of helplessness in his eyes.
In a secluded courtyard, the abbot stopped and said, "The person the donor is looking for is inside."
"Thank you, Abbot!" Murong Jingwan said gratefully and quickly walked towards Xuan Ningyi's residence.
Murong Jingwan knocked on the door gently, but no one answered after waiting for a long time.
Murong Jingwan frowned slightly, wondering if Xuan Ningyi had already left.
He opened the door anxiously, only to see Xuan Ningyi's desperate look.
"Yi, I'm sorry, I'm late." Murong Jingwan slowly walked towards Xuan Ningyi and said guiltily.
Xuan Ningyi looked at Murong Jingwan disdainfully, with a painful look on her face.
"Wan'er, why are you still here? How many more dreams do you want to give me?" As soon as he saw Murong Jingwan, Xuan Ningyi thought of Murong Jingwan's moaning under Xuan Ningxuan yesterday.
"Yi, I don't understand what you are talking about? I didn't lie to you, I really want to leave with you." Xuan Ningyi's eyes frightened her. She didn't want to lose her fourth brother too.
"Wan'er, why didn't you come last night? Do you know how worried I was about you?" Xuan Ningyi's voice became hoarse and she looked at Murong Jingwan in pain.
Last night? How could she say what happened last night? She didn't mean not to come, it was just that she was drugged by Xuan Ningxuan.
"Why don't you say anything? You still want to lie to me. I went to the palace last night, but I saw your despicable look, the way you were having fun under Xuan Ningxuan." Xuan Ningyi cruelly tore Murong Jingwan apart.
The wound in the heart.
Murong Jingwan's figure swayed, and it turned out that Xuan Ningyi went to the palace yesterday.
Murong Jingwan cried and shook her head, don't look at her like that. She didn't do it voluntarily, she was forced.
"Yi, you don't believe me." Murong Jingwan looked at Xuan Ningyi with tearful eyes. If Xuan Ningyi believed her, she would tell him everything.
"Having seen it with my own eyes and heard it with my own ears, how do you want me to believe you? I am just a pawn in your hands. I lost everything for you." Xuan Ningyi suddenly laughed, but tears kept coming from the corners of his eyes.
slide.
"Yi, you believe me after all." Murong Jingwan slowly turned around. When she turned to look at him, what she got was an absolutely stunning back view. It was because her hands were stained with too much blood, so
This is her retribution, being unable to get love for the rest of her life. She doesn't want much, she just wants someone who truly loves her.
Looking at Murong Jingwan's lonely back, Xuan Ningyi wanted to persuade him to stay, but as long as he thought of Murong Jingwan's appearance last night, he could not remain indifferent.
Murong Jingwan gently wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes. She would never believe in love again. The word love was too heavy, and all she had was endless sadness.
She walked out of Lingyin Temple in despair. She could not hear the voices of the guards.
Back in the palace, Murong Jingwan met Xuan Ningxuan and that despicable man.
"Queen, are you back? Have you met my fourth brother?" There was a smile on Xuan Ningxuan's lips, and Murong Jingwan's lonely expression told him everything.
Murong Jingwan wanted to leave, so he cut off all her escape routes. Xuan Ningxuan gently held Murong Jingwan into his arms and said silently in his heart: "Jingwan, live well, I still have many things to learn."
Let me show you. I will break all your flying wings."
