The Host in Quick Transmigration Always Wants to Break Her Character

Chapter 143 The Divine Physician and the Regent's Wife (5)

Huangfu Yaoyu originally intended to go to the palace to see Nalan Zhimeng, but before he even reached Nalan Zhimeng's bedroom, his men came to report that Xie Yuan had been summoned to the imperial study by the emperor.

He didn't care about Xie Yuan's life or death, but Xie Yuan was still useful now, and he couldn't let the emperor ruin his plans.

Upon hearing the report, he hurriedly headed towards the Imperial Study.

Just as he was about to push the door open, he heard the emperor asking Xie Yuan if he was in love with him. Although he had a feeling about it, hearing it in person made him feel even more at ease.

Seeing Huangfu Yaoyu's feigned concern, Lin Jingyi pursed his lips.

"The Emperor only asked me if I was in love with you, and then you came."

Lin Jingyi looked at Huangfu Yaoyu with eyes full of admiration, but couldn't help feeling disgusted.

Seeing Lin Jingyi's gaze, Huangfu Yaoyu's eyes flickered slightly, as if he remembered something, and he moved a little further away from Lin Jingyi.

"Hmm... I also have feelings for you."

Lin Jingyi: ...

She lowered her head, feigning shyness, making it impossible to discern her expression.

"Yuan Yuan, we will be parting ways tomorrow. I have ordered some of your favorite dishes to be prepared. Let me dine with you." With that, Huangfu Yaoyu took Lin Jingyi's hand and walked towards the palace where Lin Jingyi lived.

"Okay." Lin Jingyi replied in a low voice without raising his head, following Huangfu Yaoyu's lead.

Huangfu Yaoyu never spoke during his meal with Xie Yuan, so the two of them didn't exchange a single word.

Lin Jing could also sense Huangfu Yaoyu's faint resistance towards her.

If Xie Yuan could focus a little more, he might have noticed Huangfu Yaoyu's unusual behavior. When Lin Jingyi deliberately approached Huangfu Yaoyu, his body would jerk uncomfortably.

The two lingered for a while, each lost in their own thoughts, before Huangfu Yaoyu finally left.

Seeing that no one was around, Lin Jingyi cast a cleansing spell on himself to get rid of bad luck.

As soon as Huangfu Yaoyu stepped out of Lin Jingyi's room, his gentle and warm expression instantly turned gloomy, and he walked towards Nalan Zhimeng's palace.

At that time, Nalan Zhimeng was sitting on a swing in the courtyard, with her personal maid slowly pushing her from behind, enjoying herself immensely.

As soon as Huangfu Yaoyu entered, he was greeted by this serene and beautiful scene.

The bad mood I had felt at Xie Yuan's place dissipated somewhat, and my heart was filled with the image of the person sitting on the swing.

When the palace maid saw Huangfu Yaoyu arrive, Huangfu Yaoyu gestured for her to be quiet and then signaled her to leave.

The palace maid curtsied and then left.

Huangfu Yaoyu took over the position of palace maid.

As the regent, Huangfu Yaoyu wields immense power, and most of the people in the palace are his men. That's why he dares to openly enter Nalan Zhimeng's bedchamber.

Huangfu Yaoyu pushed Nalan Zhimeng, and as she swayed toward him, he embraced her tightly from behind.

Only in this way can his heart be completely filled.

Nalan Zhimeng was startled, but upon sensing the familiar presence, a sweet feeling welled up inside her.

She immediately recalled Xie Yuan's earlier statement about how the two were deeply in love, and felt a slight pang of sadness.

"Yaoyu..." Nalan Zhimeng twisted her body, trying to break free from Huangfu Yaoyu's embrace. Seeing that she couldn't break free, she could only call out to him in a low voice.

Huangfu Yaoyu released her hastily and quickly walked up to Nalan Zhimeng:

"Is Zhimeng feeling unwell?"

Knowing that Nalan Zhimeng was still under the influence of the poison and was out in the wind, he couldn't help but ask her with some concern.

Nalan Zhimeng felt comforted by the care shown to her beloved.

"No." She just wanted all of Yaoyu's love.

"That's good, that's good." Huangfu Yaoyu felt relieved and hugged Nalan Zhizhimeng in his arms.

Nalan Zhimeng's nose twitched, and in Huangfu Yaoyu's arms... there was a faint scent of a woman's perfume.

She had recently been poisoned and hadn't been dressing up. Besides, the scent of this cosmetic wasn't the one she usually used.

The thought that he had embraced other women before embracing her filled Nalan Zhimeng with a pang of bitterness.

Huangfu Yaoyu has always favored Nalan Zhimeng. Nalan Zhimeng has realized their current relationship and that he may have to lead Xie Yuan to call her "Mother Empress" in the future.

With all her might, she pushed Huangfu Yaoyu away, tears streaming down her face. She quickly ran back to her bedchamber, closed the door, leaned against it, and slid down to the ground.

Huangfu Yaoyu was holding Nalan Zhimeng tightly when he was suddenly pushed away. Before he could even ask why, Nalan Zhimeng ran inside.

"Zhimeng, what's wrong with you?" Huangfu Yaoyu stepped forward in confusion to ask, but when he felt the door was blocked, he could only stand outside the door and ask.

Whenever Nalan Zhimeng thought about those possibilities coming true, she couldn't help but want to escape and didn't want to face Huangfu Yaoyu.

Faced with Huangfu Yaoyu's concerned inquiry, tears streamed down her face uncontrollably.

"I'm sorry..." she was already sobbing uncontrollably.

"Zhimeng, let's talk things over together. Don't shut me out, okay?" Huangfu Yaoyu said softly, feeling sorry for her.

"Yaoyu, you should go and find Miss Xie." Whenever Nalan Zhimeng heard Huangfu Yaoyu's voice, she couldn't help but want to cry.

"Why? Why did you push me away?" Huangfu Yaoyu was very puzzled.

Seeing that the main entrance was blocked by her, Huangfu Yaoyu thought of the side entrance and quickly went in through it.

As soon as he entered, he saw his beloved girl sitting on the ground, her face buried between her legs, her shoulders shaking.

Huangfu Yaoyu had no idea what she was thinking, but he still held her in his arms with a tender heart.

“Zhi Meng… I don’t know why you’re pushing me to Xie Yuan. I’ve said it before, everything between me and her is fake.”

Smelling the increasingly pungent scent of rouge emanating from his arms, Nalan Zhimeng voiced the question that had been nagging at her.

"Your plan is to first have Miss Xie help me detoxify, and then have me marry you in her place."

"Then why do you have to pretend you like her? We could have paid her to treat my illness, and then paid her to let me marry you in her name. Why did you do that? Why did you have to kill her..."

Nalan Zhimeng couldn't understand why Xie Yuan, a good girl, would die like this...

Huangfu Yaoyu wiped away her tears.

“Zhimeng, Miss Xie developed feelings for me back then. If she knew that I loved you, she wouldn’t have agreed to save you. I have no choice but to deal with her.”

Huangfu Yaoyu would not have told Nalan Zhimeng about his relationship with Xie Yuan if he hadn't wanted to explain it to her.

"Only the dead can shut up forever, and I can't gamble with your kindness."

If anyone's to blame, it's Xie Yuan for falling for him.

"Yaoyu, you've changed so much I don't recognize you anymore."

Nalan Zhimeng suddenly felt very cold. The person she had always loved had suddenly become so indifferent to life that she no longer recognized him.

"Zhimeng, everything I've done is so that I can be with you. I don't want to... lose you again."

As he spoke, Huangfu Yaoyu buried his face in Nalan Zhimeng's neck, his voice muffled.

Hearing Huangfu Yaoyu say this, Nalan Zhimeng's heart softened.

"But I don't like the smell of other girls on you."

Upon hearing this, Huangfu Yaoyu understood that Zhimeng was jealous.

"Zhimeng, I promise to keep my distance from Xie Yuan from now on." He then picked her up and placed her on the bed.

"She will set off tomorrow to find a cure. Once she has cured you, I can marry you."

Upon hearing this, Nalan Zhimeng lowered her eyes in embarrassment.

After a while, Nalan Zhimeng asked.

"Yaoyu, we can just use Miss Xie's identity, can we please let her go?"

Nalan Zhimeng still felt that killing someone after using them was a bad thing.

"Okay." Huangfu Yaoyu smiled and patted Nalan Zhimeng's head in response.

But in his heart he thought that Nalan Zhimeng was kind-hearted, and if he insisted on his idea, the two of them would definitely continue to argue.

So, to avoid Nalan Zhimeng's sudden outburst of kindness, Huangfu Yaoyu smiled and gave a perfunctory reply.

If it weren't for the scent of perfume on Xie Yuan, Zhi Meng wouldn't be so heartbroken today. If the two of them get together in the future, it won't be good if Zhi Meng keeps thinking about it.

All he needs to do is keep it from Zhimeng and get rid of the person.

At this moment, Lin Jingyi was still cultivating, preparing to improve his cultivation level and escape control.

She had no idea that someone had already set their sights on her life.

Even after a night of cultivation, Lin Jingyi was still full of energy.

As dawn was breaking, Lin Jingyi finally crawled into bed to sleep.

She was awakened by a palace maid who said that the regent had arrived.

Lin Jingyi tidied up briefly and put the gold and silver given to him by Nalan Zhimeng into his spatial storage.

Upon exiting, he saw Huangfu Yaoyu sitting in the central hall, occasionally sipping tea, as if he had been waiting for a long time.

"Yaoyu".

Lin Jingyi smiled and approached Huangfu Yaoyu.

Huangfu Yaoyu smiled and nodded: "Is everything ready?"

"Okay, we can set off now." Lin Jingyi nodded.

"I'll escort you out of the city."

"it is good."

The two chatted awkwardly for a while before boarding the carriage that left the palace.

As soon as they left the palace, the carriage suddenly stopped, and two tall men in plain clothes got out.

Huangfu Yaoyu stepped out of the sedan chair to check.

The two men looked at Huangfu Yaoyu and nodded to each other. The original driver got out of the car and was replaced by the two men.

Seeing Lin Jingyi pop his head out, Huangfu Yaoyu went in and said to Lin Jingyi with concern:

“Yuan Yuan, these two are my capable subordinates. I trust them to protect you.”

Lin Jingyi chuckled softly.

"I'm going back to my own home; there won't be any danger."

“I feel more at ease knowing someone is with you.” Huangfu Yaoyu gestured for the two men driving the carriage to leave, then turned to Lin Jingyi and said softly.

Lin Jingyi feigned a touched expression: "I have martial arts skills, unlike those weak housekeepers."

Although Lin Jingyi thought the same thing, in order to avoid wasting time talking to Huangfu Yaoyu, he pretended to have a sweet expression and said:

"However, I am very happy that Yaoyu treats me this way."

Huangfu Yaoyu curled the corners of his mouth.

The carriage traveled smoothly to the city gate.

Huangfu Yaoyu got out of the carriage and looked at Lin Jingyi, who was peeking out of the carriage window, with a look of reluctance on his face.

"Yuan Yuan, take good care of yourself."

"I will." Lin Jingyi nodded.

Huangfu Yaoyu originally wanted her to bring a maid to take care of her, but Lin Jingyi thought that she might leave at any time and might have a conflict with the driver and the people in the shadows.

Bring along a maid; if it were just someone who couldn't even kill a chicken, Lin Jingyi wouldn't know who would take care of whom.

If someone is skilled in martial arts, then you'll have one more enemy.

Why bother.

After a moment of reluctant parting with Huangfu Yaoyu, Lin Jingyi closed the carriage curtain.

"You must protect Yuan Yuan well." Before leaving, Lin Jingyi heard Huangfu Yaoyu instructing his two subordinates.
