Returning after a three-year escape from death, the tyrant has turned evil.

Chapter 244 Seeing Xie Ling Again
After realizing what had happened, Song Yi immediately clenched one hand into a fist, her gentle demeanor completely gone: "I knew it, you're too improper."

"Is it me who's being improper?"

He raised an eyebrow and asked a question, his gaze falling downwards.

Song Yi followed his gaze downwards. She wasn't wearing shoes or socks. She had been snuggling into Jiang Lanye's arms, and only then did she realize that she was stepping on Jiang Lanye's dragon robe, and the front of her clothes had been rubbed loose.

She quickly retreated, saying irritably, "Anyway, I'm going to the Imperial Hospital tomorrow."

Actually, Jiang Lanye didn't stop her from going. It just so happened that he needed to meet someone the next day and didn't have much time to spend with Song Yi.

"You may go, but you can have Eunuch Cao accompany you."

"it is good."

Day two.

Song Yi was ready to go to the Imperial Hospital and work hard with the imperial physicians. Even though it was only a short separation, Jiang Lanye seemed worried and had Eunuch Cao carry a food box for her.

It contained some of Song Yi's favorite snacks and some sweet soup.

Jiang Lanye looked at her earnestly and instructed, "Come back for lunch around noon."

"Oh."

"If you're tired, take a break. Don't push yourself. The imperial physicians have been searching for a solution for so many days but haven't been able to come up with one. You're only going for half a day, so don't try to be a hero."

".oh."

"Don't wander off. Eunuch Cao is with you. If you go anywhere other than the Imperial Hospital, he will stop you."

Song Yi couldn't go on.

Jiang Lanye stared at her, waiting for her answer.

Song Yi gave a forced smile: "Jiang Lanye, after I leave, no matter who you meet, you must not get tired, and the time spent together should not exceed one hour."

"it is good."

"Also, you must take your medicine on time and drink plenty of hot water."

Jiang Lanye's eyes revealed tenderness: "Okay."

Song Yi couldn't continue speaking and left with a stern face.

This guy is so annoying.

The key point is that when we use his own words against him, he actually seems quite pleased with it.

Eunuch Cao followed her cautiously the whole way, and couldn't help but ask, "Your Majesty, how is His Majesty now?"

"Much better. Didn't you see how he was deliberately trying to annoy me just now?"

"But what about Gu poison?"

Song Yi sighed helplessly: "Eunuch Cao, you can trust everyone. It's only a matter of time before we find a way to cure the curse."

He had no choice but to agree and follow Song Yi into the Imperial Hospital.

This wasn't her first time there. As soon as she entered, she found a corner spot with ease, picked up a few medical books, and began to patiently read through them, inhaling the bitter smell of the Chinese herbs.

It must be said that Jiang Lanye truly understands her well.

She usually keeps talking while reading, and her eyes lit up when Eunuch Cao brought out some snacks.

After watching for two hours straight, Song Yi felt that her head was filled with far too much information, making her dizzy, lightheaded, and extremely confused. She walked out in a daze.

No, she had to go back and see Jiang Lanye, and seek some solace.

Now, when I close my eyes, all I see are those words floating around in front of me.

As Song Yi entered the hall, he heard a familiar voice.

She narrowed her eyes, strode inside, and immediately saw that familiar, tall figure kneeling respectfully on one knee. Hearing footsteps, he turned his head, and Song Yi exclaimed in surprise, "Xie Ling?!"

Xie Ling was taken aback, then smiled and said, "Greetings, Your Highness. It has truly been a long time since we last met."

Song Yi hadn't expected that Jiang Lanye would be meeting him today. She had a very good impression of General Xie, and the memory of his time fighting abroad was too unforgettable. It would be a lie to say she wasn't happy to suddenly see an old friend from the past in the palace.

She walked up to Xie Ling and asked with a smile, "How have you been lately? I remember you were also injured. Have you recovered yet?"

"It's all healed. His Majesty has already ordered someone to bestow wound medicine upon us."

"Your Majesty, I have not come with bad news, so Your Majesty need not worry too much."

Song Yi chuckled: "That's not what I thought."

"That's good. Actually, I'm not very willing to face Your Majesty right now, considering what happened before."

His expression turned somewhat serious when he said this.

Song Yi had initially thought that he had lost some of the fierce aura of a general without his armor, but now that he showed this expression, it suddenly felt strangely familiar.

"No, no one is at fault in this matter; it's just fate playing tricks on us."

She didn't really want to talk about the past anymore, because whenever she did, she would uncontrollably recall Wolf Owl's final expression.

Xie Ling took a deep breath: "Your Majesty is right, let bygones be bygones."

Jiang Lanye glanced at the two of them, but hadn't given Song Yi a single look since Song Yi came in.

Xie Ling suddenly felt Jiang Lanye's chilly gaze and immediately said, "Um, Your Highness, His Majesty was just looking for you."

Song Yi was taken aback, then ran over cheerfully: "What's wrong? What happened?"

Xie Ling was not an outsider, so Song Yi could talk to Jiang Lanye without worry.

Jiang Lanye didn't say anything, but simply pointed to the person next to him, indicating that she should sit down.

When Song Yi arrived, the two had already said almost everything they needed to say. Just now, Jiang Lanye saw how the two were talking and said coldly, "Xie Ling, you should go back first today."

"Wei Chen retire."

After he left, he thoughtfully closed the gates of the Golden Palace.

Song Yi knew nothing about it. Leaning on his shoulder, she told him about the medical books she had seen in the Imperial Hospital.

Jiang Lanye's arm was around her waist. After listening to her finish speaking casually, he suddenly changed the subject: "Why were you so happy when you saw him just now?"

"what?"

Song Yi was momentarily stunned, then realized that Jiang Lanye was jealous, and quickly explained, "Well, General Xie is no outsider. We haven't seen each other for a long time, so it's only natural to exchange a few pleasantries when we meet again. Besides, I saw the genuine respect he showed me back then."

Although her explanation was reasonable, Jiang Lanye was clearly dissatisfied with the answer.

Song Yi said decisively, "I was wrong. I should have spoken to you as soon as I came in, and I should have only looked at you. I shouldn't have looked at him. After all, you are so beautiful, I can never get enough of looking at you."

After saying that, she raised her hand with a grin and cupped Jiang Lanye's face: "Give me a kiss, my mind is full of the contents of those books right now, use your beauty to drive them all away."

Jiang Lanye was very pleased with her statement and generously allowed Song Yi to kiss him.

Inside Yiyue Palace.

Consort Shen drank the tea from Consort Ning's palace, looking absent-minded.

Consort Ning glanced at her, knowing that she was probably thinking about His Majesty again.

"Your Highness, I went to the Imperial Household Department and found that all the nameplates were covered in dust."

Consort Ning hadn't expected her to make a special trip to the Imperial Household Department. Recalling the lie she had told, her hand trembled, but she forced herself to remain calm.
