Chapter 1979: Expelled from the Valley
said to Mo Yun Jing, "Where is A Tang going You should send her back to the tent to rest. On a bride's wedding day, there's no reason for her to run around."Mo Yunjing gave him a faint glance. "Do y...Of course Ning'er could understand what Shou'er meant by that.
Shou'er was probably just afraid. Yunliu had gotten ideas she shouldn't have, and if their sect leader found out, her personality wouldn't allow for it.
Shou'er was just worried that she would be driven out of Xintang Valley like Fu'er.
After Shouer finished speaking, Ning'er didn't answer right away. Her stiff body stood there, silent for a long while.
Seeing Shour's worried expression grow, her eyes became resolute as she said to him, "Don't worry, when the Valley Master and the Princess return, if Yunliu is still so stubborn, I will leave the capital on my own accord."
Upon receiving Ning'er's response, Shou'er finally breathed a sigh of relief.
In her eyes, these little things between men and women are nothing compared to life and the nurturing grace she'd received over the years.
Xun Tang Gu is their home. Ning'er can live without a man, but not without a home.
Back then, if it hadn't been for their guild leader extending a helping hand and saving the lives of all these people, none of the brothers in Xuntang Valley would have survived.
So they can betray anyone in the world, but they cannot betray the Valley Master, nor the Princess.
After Ninger finished speaking, Shou'er didn't say anything more. The two sisters stood by the lake in silence for a long while.
I don't know how long it took, until the sky gradually brightened. Shou'er suddenly sighed and turned to Ning'er, patting her shoulder. "No matter what, you still have us."
She truly doesn't understand Ning'er's state of mind at this moment. She has lived her life until now, fundamentally not knowing what love is.
also never cares about things like love.
From the moment she decided to enter Xintang Valley and made up her mind to stay there, her life was destined to be isolated from what is called love.
So she doesn't understand what it's like to fall in love, nor does she comprehend the pain of unrequited love.
Because she didn't understand, she couldn't easily comment on Ning'er's affairs, let alone blame Ning'er for going against their valley master's principles and falling in love with Yunliu.
Right now, the only thing she could do was try her best to persuade Ning'er not to make mistakes and not to walk down that road of no return.
They have already lost a child, they absolutely cannot lose anyone else.
Ning'er's deep eyes slowly turned to Shou'er, her gaze firm. "Don't worry about me, rest assured, I always remember who I am and what my mission is. It's impossible for me to follow Fu'er's path."
After Ning'er finished speaking, Shou'er gently patted her shoulder and turned to walk ahead.
Ning'er stood alone by the lake, her eyes, which betrayed no emotion, fixed on the still surface of the water until the sun rose. Only then did she turn and return to Jingchen Courtyard.

Palace
It's unknown what Zhi'er did to the Emperor, but he really went out of his way to trouble the Empress for her.
The Empress resided in the Kunning Palace and had never been particularly interested in matters of state.
Because the Empress was intelligent, she knew that the Emperor would never accept a concubine from the harem to become Regent.
So she lived her life according to the emperor's wishes, becoming a queen who only cared about matters of the harem and knew her place.
Over the years, the concubines in the harem have rarely caused any trouble under her management.
The most important reason is that none of these concubines, including her, have given birth to a prince.
It has no right to play the role of a demon.
It's strange, I wonder if it's just a coincidence or something more sinister, that all the princes who have been granted the title of prince consort are now orphans.
The remaining concubines either had no children or only bore one or two princesses.
That's also why the Harem has been able to remain relatively peaceful over the years.
Without a prince, what use is all this fighting
It's better to live a peaceful life, trembling under the rule of the Empress, the mistress of the six palaces.
As long as she doesn't cause trouble, she, as the Empress, would absolutely never take the initiative to find those concubines.
Unbeknownst to us, she had already been living according to the emperor's wishes. Who would have thought that she could still encounter trouble today
Seeing the emperor's health declining day by day, knowing that a change in dynasty was just around the corner, she only wished to live until the emperor abdicated. Then she could become an empress dowager, living a carefree and unrestrained life, beyond the reach of anyone.
Now even the inner palace doesn't know where this little fox spirit came from, yet it has completely captivated the Emperor.
Even allowed the Emperor to have thoughts of a deposed empress.
For the Emperor to ask his Empress to move out of the Kunning Palace, what a joke that would be!
The Empress can't actually live in the Kunning Palace
This is going to be such a shocking thing to spread.
So, after the Emperor and Concubine Zhi left Kunning Palace, the Empress was so angry that she smashed all the vases in Kunning Palace that could be broken.
She trembled with anger, utterly baffled by what the little demon had possibly put into the emperor's mind to make him so foolish.
To know that being deposed is no small matter.
The Emperor couldn't even figure out the origins of that little fox, yet he was willing to depose his Empress for her To offend the powerful Hu family she was connected to
After the empress had smashed every breakable thing in her private chambers, she gritted her teeth and glared in the direction where Chi Guifei now resided. Her eyes were bloodshot, and she stared at that place with venomous hatred.
Moments later, she clenched her fists and let out a cold snort, "For all these years, this palace hasn't fought or competed, not wanting anything because no one dared to challenge the position of the empress."
"But now someone wants to run wild on top of this palace They'd better look in the mirror and pee themselves, see if they're worthy and if they have the ability"
Gritting her teeth, she finished her words and immediately turned to the maid beside her. "Go, quickly summon Concubine Wu and Concubine Zhao."
The palace maid hastily bowed. "Yes, My Lady,"
……
After Chi'er led the emperor out of Kunning Palace, she had wanted to have him return to her bedchamber with her.
On the road, she saw a familiar face. Her eyes sharpened, and then she appeased the Emperor, causing him to return to his study.
And she returned to her chambers with a sullen face.
As soon as she entered the palace, she scanned her surroundings but didn't see the person she wanted to meet. Zhi'er's face immediately darkened.
After she sat down at the head of the table, she glared immediately at the two subordinates standing before her, suppressing her anger, "Where is she"
These two failed to bring Shuangshuang over. Knowing they hadn't completed their task, they immediately knelt on the ground with both knees and said in unison, "We are guilty for failing to bring the young master here."
Zha'er knew this would be the result. She clenched her fists, her face contorted with anger, and gritted out, “What did that wretch say Knowing I wanted to see her, he still refuses to come willingly”
Feeling Zhi'er's wrath, the two subordinates kneeling on the ground felt a chill run down their spines. They could sense the breath of death hanging in the air.
But now he had to grit his teeth and speak, "My lord, the young master… she still insists that you leave the palace to see her. And… and the young master also said that she already has what you have always wanted in her hand."is words through clenched teeth:"Begging alms, this portrait, are you giving it to me today or not""The Abbot He Yuan looked placid, a faint smile touched his lips as he shook his head and said, 'We'v...
