The door was closed, and there was almost no wind coming through the open window. Hot and dry at night. Xueyun threw and turned her body on the bed and found it hard to fall asleep.
There were many images that appeared in his mind, both in his previous life and in this life, both from himself and from the owner of his original body, which were mixed up and haunted him.
Finally, she sat on the bed, unconscious for a while before she opened the secret locker by the bedside and took out a medical book.
With the moonlight coming inside through the window, Bai Xueyun opened the medical book.
Under the dim moonlight, the text in the book was not clear enough to read. Xueyun struggled to read the book for a long time but could not understand it, so she lay down again, covering her face with the book.
He fell asleep somehow not long after, and when he woke up, the darkness around everything had faded away.
The open book lay beside Xueyun's pillow, and the characters in the courtyard glittered in the morning sun.
Xueyun set her sights on the medical book for a long time before finally picking it up. As he was about to put it in a secret locker, a paper fell from the book.
The paper had changed color over the years, but the writing remained different to read:
I have been practicing medicine for decades, but no one has inherited my medical skills. Now I hid this book in Lian's residence and hoped that it would be found by someone who could pass it on.
After so many years, the writing on the note was still strong and unrestrained, yet from there, he could vaguely feel the regret of the author.
Clearly, this record had been hidden in the medical book by Lian Yaoping. Judging from the moment, when he handed this book to Lian Yue, he was still alive, and even in his prime.
At that time, it shouldn't be difficult for him to recruit a disciple with prestige as a miracle-making physician.
Why did Lian Yaoping hide a note that looked like her last words in Yuan Shu's medical book a few years before her death? And why would he give the book to his only daughter?
Bai Xueyun made a wild guess and believed Lian Yaoping might have predicted that her family would face disaster.
This could explain the sudden disappearance of the Lian family overnight. Perhaps, after he foresaw the disaster, Lian Yaoping planned all of this secretly to protect his family from it.
Bai Xueyun put the note back into the medical book, and stuffed the book into a secret locker.
Bai Xueyun walked over to the Chen residence casually, but as she approached Chen's bedroom door, she heard a coquettish sound, which gave her goosebumps.
“prince, this is the chicken soup I made specially for you. It is cooked with a thousand-year-old wild ginseng, which is good for your health. " Gu Yun took out the chicken soup from the basket and directed his teasing gaze at Chen, who had just woken up.
Dressed in a thin white shirt, Chen sat down, took water from the servant's hand, rinsed his mouth, and spat water into the basin.
He looks much better now. At least his face was no longer pale.
Gu Yun approached Chen with chicken soup in his hand, bowed to approach him, and said, “prince Chen, please try. I spent the whole night cooking this for you. "
Before Chen said anything, Bai Xueyun stepped in, saying, “How attentive is Miss Yun. Prince, you better take it. " While his tone seemed pleased, the smile on his face did not reach the bottom of his eyes, which were dark and unfathomable, showing no sign of the generosity he showed.
Chen squinted at Xueyun, knowing Bai Xueyun was jealous.
He pushed Gu Yun's hand and said emotionlessly, “This is too oily. You can go. ”
"Pa-Prince." Gu Yun suddenly raised his extremely sweet and high-pitched voice.
Chen ignored her and said to Bai Xueyun, "Empress Bai came and help me get dressed."
He got up and turned to face Bai Xueyun, stretching his arms.
Chen wanted to spoil Xueyun's eyes but when he saw Bai Xueyun not moving, he urged, "consort Bai, what are you still waiting for?"
Bai Xueyun remained silent, saying with a smile, "prince, did I get rewarded for helping you get dressed?"
"Pick me another set of clothes." He did not respond, but ordered the waiter to bring another outfit instead.
That's not necessary. Bai Xueyun stopped her servant to pick up the clothes, and stepped forward to put the clothes on Chen, complaining, “I just want to benefit from this. Why can't Prince Chen just be funny? "
“You can say what you want.” Chen squinted at Bai Xueyun and said, ignoring Bai Xueyun's hand that was caressing her body.
Bai Xueyun tied the golden jade belt to Chen. "Are you going to agree on something?"
Chen remained silent, but a smile appeared on his lips.
"Alright, then I'll be frank." Bai Xueyun stood up straight, approached Chen and said in her ear with a gentle warm breath, "prince, may I serve you in bed tonight?"
Here is the temptation again.
Although Bai Xueyun was talking in Chen's ear, her voice was not too low. At least, it was loud enough for everyone in the room to hear clearly.
All the maidservants blushed, but the seductive and ridiculed person remained calm.
“Does empress Bai really want to?” said Chen.
"Of course." Bai Xueyun smiled bluntly. She wrapped Chen in her arms, and her tapering hand held on to Chen's waist for a while before gently stroking. “With good looks in my arms, there are many reasons to be tempted.”
Bai Xueyun naturally had a sense of modesty. After silencing his hand on Chen's waist for a while, he immediately pulled his hand back.
With her feather-like eyelashes twitching slightly, Chen blinked to hide the secret luster in his eyes, and said, "Since you want to sleep with me, you can come tonight."
Bai Xueyun was a little surprised, then she chuckled. "Good."
One night is not enough. All he wants is every night.
They had been talking to each other, ignoring Gu Yun the entire time, who had almost dropped the bowl of chicken soup in his hand. His fingers squeezed the bowl so tightly that his nails were already crooked, but he didn't seem to notice it.
Bai Xueyun turned to look at him and said in surprise, "Yo, Miss Yun, you're still here?"
His seemingly mediocre speech became the final blow to Gu Yun. “Sial!” The chicken soup in his hand fell to the ground.
Out of his thoughts, Gu Yun hid the inappropriate expression on his face in haste and apologized in a low voice, “permaisuri , sorry. I'm just a little dazed, probably because I didn't sleep well last night. ”
"Forgetit." Chen cut off Gu Yun's remark. “You can go. The waiter will clean up the mess. "
“Ya, prince.” Gu Yun immediately walked towards the door. But his facial expression became fierce and distorted as he turned around.
However, before Gu Yun exited the door, Bai Xueyun's voice sounded from behind, "Miss Yun, have you forgotten something?"
The basket is still on the table. Bai Xueyun lifted the basket and placed it in her hand, "Don't waste such nourishing soup, miss Yun."
Gu Yun looked at Bai Xueyun angrily before he left in annoyance.
