Chapter 23: Goodbye Xuanyuanlin

The night is as cool as water, and the night disguises a woman to shuttle quickly in the dark. The vast luxury villa is quietly uninhabited in the night, and everything is sleeping and breathing at night.

The picture is constantly changing, and some scenes appear violently in the mind and switch. Many things accumulated in an instant, and the figures who fell to the ground after being shot were confused, overwhelmed, surprised, and all kinds of expressions kept changing in their dreams...

Lan Ruoyan slept uneasily, as if something gathered to tear her nerves, shouting and complaining in her mind. A figure who slowly fell to the ground stood up, with strong dissatisfaction and anger.

"Ah!" Lan Ruoyan woke up from her dream, gasped, grabbed the quilt tightly, and her joints unconsciously turned white. The sweat moistened her black hair, and part of it stuck to both sides of her cheeks. The bean-sized beads of sweat rolled down from her forehead, and the moonlight inadvertently penetrated on her pale face, thin shoulders, and her whole body collapsed **, speechless for a long time.

She didn't know why she had such a dream, dreaming of the memory of her previous life. She thought that after having Lan Ruoyan's memory, those things that had long gone would weather with time. She dreamed that the murderous and unkind self ended in her hands. At that time, she did not have any pity. Oh, what's ridiculous is that she scolded Xuanyuanchen for being human and murderous before today. What right does she have to say that? She is not much better herself...

Lan Ruoyan buried her head in the quilt. In the face of such Xuanyuanchen, she hooked out her long-forgotten previous life bit by bit. She is escaping from that kind of self, from those painful memories, thinking that she can escape in this way. After all, she is the same kind of person as him. Xuanyuanchen showed her side in front of her without concealment, and she had been pretending.

Suddenly, an idea flashed in her mind. She found that even if she had the opportunity to return to modern times, she would not hesitate to stay. She treats everything here as a new self, and she treats everything with her heart.

She is no longer the one who doesn't care about anything. She will have people who are worried and miss people here. She has hurt and hurt here, but she has never loved. People here who care about her have a heart for her. She is no longer alone. She has family and friends. Her life is not complete, and she has not found the happiness she wants.

Xuanyuanchen's words were straightforward, but it was the same thing. She can't say who is right and who is wrong, but people forced by the environment have to do so. She and Xuanyuan have already stood in the same boat. If the boat is overturned, she can't be better.

She thought about the most tragic consequences in the end, but as long as she was here, everything might turn around. She wants to live according to her ideas, and she has to do her best to change something. She believes that people will win the sky. As long as she acts by herself, she will not be influenced by other people's words.

When she figured it out, Lan Ruoyan gradually relaxed her body and fell asleep, her eyebrows stretched, and there was a smile on the corners of her mouth.

"Princess, get up." Outside the door, the maid of honor whispered.

As soon as the door opened, Lan Ruoyan appeared at the door in a simple and refreshing outfit. "I'm ready. Let's go." Lan Ruoyan smiled at the corners of her eyes, and her whole body exuded charming charm.

I have seen a lot of beautiful women in the palace, but Lan Ruoyan still dazzle her eyes at this moment. Princess, you look very different today. You are so beautiful. She hasn't read many books and can't describe it. She just feels that today's princess smiles beautifully, just like flowers blooming.

"Isn't it the same as before? No matter how beautiful it is, it can't be as beautiful as your queen, can it?" Lan Ruoyan said with a smile.

"This..." The maid didn't know what to answer and smiled.

Lan Ruoyan had no intention to embarrass her, "Okay, let's go." After saying that, he took the lead in leaving the door.

The maid of honor said nothing more and followed Lan Ruoyan.

After Lan Xiang was taken away by Xuan Yuanchen, Lan Ruoyan did not put a close maid beside him. Usually, there are people waiting for you. Without Lanxiang, you will not get used to it. But she is not an official lady who has been served by others since she was a child. She can do anything by herself.

She was in a good mood today. Yesterday's haze was swept away, and she got up early to simply dress up. It's not that she gets up early, but that she has never been as early as in the palace. In Chen's mansion, she is the boss of the backyard. Others have to get up early to say hi to her, but here, she has to get up early to say hi to the empress dowager, known as "talk to the old woman".

When she heard this sentence, Lan Ruoyan was speechless. The empress dowager was an old woman at her age. Isn't those 70 or 80 years old?! She is really willing to say that she is old, and she doesn't rely on her skills to look old.

When he reached the door of Changle Palace, Lan Ruoyan heard a different sound as usual. She filtered all the voices she had heard here in her mind and couldn't help wondering. Who is this? Why don't you usually see this person? But she was sure that she must have seen it before, but she just listened to the voice, and she couldn't guess who it was for a moment.

"After mother, don't keep asking. Don't you think I'm back well? You won't be interested in those things. I will tell you something when the time comes." There is an unconcealed shame in the words.

"The queen mother let you play outside, and you treat the queen like this? The mother asked you if you didn't tell me. Do you dislike me as an old woman? There was a smile in the voice of the Empress Dowager. Lan Ruoyan suddenly became enlightened by listening to the mystery in her heart. I'm afraid that only Xuanyuanlin, who often wanders outside, can make the Empress Dowager like this.

"How can I dislike you, Queen Mother? You also said too seriously, but you have lived in the deep palace for a long time. You won't like to listen to those things. Isn't it bad to sweep your interest at that time..." Xuanyuanlin said as she acted coquettishly.

"Yes, Queen, Lin'er finally came back. The more you ask her about the things she is hiding, the more you won't say it. When you don't want to know, I'm afraid she will pester you to tell you." Murong Qingqing joked.

"Oh, you guys bullied me as soon as I came back!" Xuanyuanlin said coquettishly, as if she had suffered a lot.

As soon as Lan Ruoyan entered the door, she saw such a scene. The empress dowager's face was full of hidden smiles. Murong Qingqing swept away the dark clouds piled between her eyebrows in the past few days and smiled happily; Xuanyuanlin turned around the ground without doing nothing below, but the big cunning eyes carried Full of smiles.

"It's so lively here. I think I'm late. The empress dowager is a thousand years old, and the empress is a thousand years old. Lan Ruoyan said his words to the two of them.

"It's better to come early than to come by coincidence. This time is just right." Murong Qingqing laughed on the side.

"This sentence is good. Yan'er and Chen'er are also here now. Our family is finally here now. On this day, I am looking forward to it every day, and today I have always looked forward to it. The face with a slight trace due to the passage of time deepened the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes because of laughter.

Lan Ruoyan stood still and looked at the happy scene that the empress dowager was looking forward to. If it's true, then all this is really beautiful. But once these appearances take off their gorgeous coats, what will be left...

"Your sister-in-law, you came just in time. They all bullied me one by one. If you want to help me, you can't unite to bully me like them!" Xuanyuanlin rushed over as soon as she saw Lan Ruoyan, took Lan Ruoyan's arm and said, her big eyes were full of desire. But in Lan Ruoyan's opinion, how can this look like a pet dog that is having fun...

She can't say that she is very familiar with Xuan Yuanlin. After all, she has only met her once, but for her too enthusiastic way, there was Murong Qingqing, but she still can't get used to it here. He secretly pulled his arm hard, but he didn't move a little bit.

Lan Ruoyan's mind is full of black lines. What does this mean by her arm? Where's the dog bone? Hold it so tightly. She just thought about this in her heart and didn't have to say it face to face.

"What does the princess want me to help? How dare anyone bully the princess?" Lan Ruoyan can't smoke her hand, and she can't work hard anymore. Anyway, she can't hurt in public. Just think of herself as a pet dog. Well, it's quite... cute when you look carefully. Thinking about other things, the expression is indescribably innocent.

"Ah, you are all racuses. I'll ignore you..." Xuanyuanlin let go of Lan Ruoyan's hand and shouted.

Lan Ruoyan was speechless. She didn't do anything. How could she react like this? She stood there for a moment and said it or not.

"All right, all right. Such a big man, like a child who doesn't grow up, Sheng'er will come to laugh at you later. The Empress Dowager couldn't stop laughing and said.

After hearing what the Empress Dowager said, Xuanyuanlin did not mess around. He came to the Empress Dowager with a smile and sat down and said, "It's not been a long time since I've seen my mother. I'm thinking about panicking. Now that I'm so happy to be so happy that I can't help but want to make so much noise. Let's see if the Queen Mother still loves me as before!"

"I haven't thought of me for so long, and I haven't seen you take the initiative to come back to see me. It wasn't me that I urged you to come back to think of me. Is the world really so good, better than in the palace? She loved the daughter in her heart and didn't want to restrain her. Unexpectedly, as soon as she was released, her heart was like water spilled out and could not be taken back.

"Yes? Last time, er, no, I came back by myself last time. Oh, no..." I was embarrassed to pull the hem of the Empress Dowager's clothes.
