In the Immortal Lotus Courtyard.

Qing Dai pushed the door open and hurriedly walked to Lian Ruyue's side. She said in a low voice:

"Eldest Miss really has good foresight, Old Master is indeed monitoring our Immortal Lotus Courtyard." Eldest Miss really good foresight, Old Master is indeed monitoring our Immortal Lotus Courtyard.

Lian Meng Yue wrote a letter and looked straight ahead as she said, "My father is the prime minister, how could he easily believe my words? Naturally, I had to personally see it to feel a heavy weight in my heart."

"But, I have something that I don't understand. I would like to ask First Miss to explain."

Lian Ruyue put down the brush and asked, "What is it?"

"Since First Miss wants to obtain the trust of the old master, why did she go to the old master's study to anger him?" asked Indigo.

"Reality, this is reality. If I didn't resist or fear at all and obediently returned the Ninth Prince's items, then I wouldn't be a fourteen-year-old child." Lian Ruyue said.

"So that's how it is, young miss' thoughts are really thoughtful." It was no wonder that the young miss' meticulous plans were flawless, leaving the Xiao family and the third young miss powerless to resist.

Lian Ruyue said, "Qingdai, you've been paying attention to these things recently."

"The matter of dropping the incense has touched this servant very deeply. This servant is too stupid, I don't know anything other than serving the young miss. This servant also wants to become smarter so that this servant can stay by her side and protect the young miss from unnecessary harm …" As she spoke, her eyes turned red.

"On the day that I first arrived at the Prime Minister's residence, I've already told all of you. Although the intelligence of the people around me is important, the word I value the most is' loyalty '." Lian Ruyue said after she heard this.

"But, this servant does not want only loyal officials. This servant still wants intelligence." "What's the matter?"

"Everyone is good at different things, but if you have the determination, you can still improve." Lian Ruyue's face revealed a satisfied expression.

"Eldest Miss, I will try my best." Qing Dai made up her mind.

Not long later, Leng Mei returned and reported to Lian Xiyue, "We have already sent the cape and golden hairpin back to the Ninth Prince, as instructed by the First Miss."

When Lian Ruyue heard this, her heart slightly trembled. She only said, "Yes." He then got up and went to the inner room.

Qing Dai and Leng Mei looked at each other — —

"Before I left, the Ninth Prince said that the people around the eldest young miss are getting more and more complicated. We have to be fully focused and not let the people with intentions take advantage of them."

"En!" "I'll be more careful."

After saying that, Fairy Qingmei quickly walked into the inner room. She waited for the moon to fall down before covering her with a blanket. As usual, she lit a Calming Incense at the door before leaving.

That night, Lian Yue didn't sleep at all, because the moment she closed her eyes, memories from her past life surged in like floodwaters. Betrayal, bloodshed, hatred, they didn't stop for a moment and pressed down on her until she almost couldn't breathe.

She could vaguely see a man in white robes bathing in a blinding light. He was tall and jade-like, like a tall and straight pine tree, or a cloud of white mist. Occasionally, a breeze would blow past, causing his white robe to flutter as if he were an immortal.

He approached her slowly, bringing the evening breeze with him. The hazy figure became clearer and clearer, until she saw his smile that was like fireworks in the world.

He whispered in her ear, and her body trembled slightly. Tears rolled down her cheeks, and he lifted his hand to wipe them away one by one.

She sat up abruptly and realized that it was already noon. She had just had a dream.

"Young miss, you're finally awake."

"What time is it now?" Lian Ru Yue asked as she rubbed her aching head.

"Shenjun, is Eldest Miss hungry? Your servant has already prepared the food." Qing Dai helped Lian Ru Yue off the bed. The maidservants brought the clothes in and changed into them one by one. After washing up, they began to eat.

"Big sis, big sis …" My sister came to ask for forgiveness. " Just as she was eating, a shout came from outside the courtyard.

Lian Ruyue lightly shook the chopsticks in her hand.

At this moment, the maidservant hurried over and said, "Eldest Miss, it, it's Third Miss. She, she has thorns on her back and wants to apologize to Eldest Miss."

"Eldest Miss understands. Quickly go down and close the door first. Stop disturbing Eldest Miss's interest in eating." Qing Dai instructed the maidservant.

"Yes." The maidservant hurriedly turned around and walked out. After a while, the chirping sound became softer.

"Accept your punishment?" Lian Ruyue continued to eat and snorted, "You think yourself honest, but I'm not Lin Xiangru either."

"Eldest Miss, what do we do now?"

Lame, carrying brambles on his back, coming all the way from Clear Spring Academy to my place, this is purposely causing a ruckus for everyone. If I don't see her, she might call me a coward. Lian Ruyue spoke as she continued to lower her head and leisurely drank the White Fruit Pig Bone Soup in front of her.

Lian Shiya was wearing a green embroidered golden jacket with long thorns on her back. She was kneeling on the ground with an incomparably devout appearance. The eyes of everyone who came and went fell on her body as they whispered to each other.

However, Lian Shiya seemed to not care about the gazes of others as she changed from her usual behavior to her usual one. As she knelt, she sobbed and spasmed towards the tightly shut courtyard door:

"Big sister, it's my fault for making thousands of mistakes. Please be magnanimous. Don't be so fussy with little sister, little sister will apologize to you today."

"Big sister, open the door, little sister has come to ask for forgiveness."

"Big sister, big sister, please …" "I'm begging you …"

At this moment, the door finally slowly opened. She suddenly raised her head, her face full of tears, and quickly crawled over, "Big Sis, you finally opened the door."

Lian Ruyue was standing behind the doorstep. She wore a peach satin darkflower heart-chrysanthemum dress, exuding a noble and elegant aura. She looked down at the person kneeling before her with a condescending and indifferent expression …

Her luxurious clothes had been cut a few times by the thorns, and her hair was a bit messy. Due to her tears having flowed a lot, her makeup had also been cut off. The thorns had pierced her back, leaving behind some bloodstains.

Lian Shiya saw that Lian Xiyue was unmoved and couldn't help but curse in her heart, but she cried even louder, "Big Sis, please forgive me, Big Sis. Everything is my fault. I already know my mistake. I will never go against Big Sis again." As he spoke, he kowtowed three times in front of Lian Ruyue.
