Ruyi's Rebirth: Ruyi's Disease Retreat Retreat

Chapter 114 Hengti becomes a nun; Yuan Che, disheartened, requests to be transferred to the border

After Gao Xiyue sent Yonghuang to Xiefang Palace, she went to Yongshou Palace without stopping.

As she expected, Wei Yanwan was in very bad condition. Looking at the dark circles under her eyes, it was clear that she had not rested well.

Wei Yanwan stood up to greet her, but was stopped by Gao Xiyue: "Yanwan, you are always so depressed. When will this end?"

Wei Yanwan shed two lines of tears and was speechless.

"Never mind. It's my fault that I can't bear to leave you. Come in with me. He has a letter for you."

Gao Xiyue pulled her into the inner hall.

"I came in after seeing the emperor leave." As she said this, she took out a letter and handed it to Wei Yanwan.

"I hope this letter can give you hope to live."

Wei Yanwan took the letter and opened it with trembling hands. The familiar handwriting on the letter made her feel at ease.

"My wife, Yanwan, I'm writing to you. My life is safe and you don't need to worry. I wanted to meet you to say goodbye, but you and I are both in danger, and we can't let others get hurt. By the time you see this letter, I will have left the palace. I know your feelings and I will never forget you. From now on, we will never meet again, no matter how far apart we are."

Wei Yanwan held the letter to her chest, as if she was holding Ling Yunche. Fortunately, he was not dead.

"Thank you, Empress Huifei, for your help."

Gao Xiyue shook her head: "You still have to thank the Imperial Noble Consort, I don't have that much courage."

"Alright, I can't keep this letter to you."

Wei Yanwan stroked the letter reluctantly. Gao Xiyue gestured to Moxin to take the letter. In front of both of them, Moxin took out a fire starter and set the letter on fire.

Gao Xiyue stood up and left. When she reached the door, she stopped and turned back to Wei Yanwan and said, "Yanwan, I'll remind you again that women in the harem can't survive a single day without favor."

Wei Yanwan nodded: "I will remember everything that Concubine Hui teaches me."

"That's good."

For three consecutive days, Hengti locked himself in the room, refusing to eat, drink or see anyone.

Until the fourth day, her door was finally opened. Hengti decided to shave her head and become a nun, and from then on she would spend the rest of her life in seclusion.

She knelt in front of the Buddha statue and stared at it blankly, without a single tear.

Yuan Che came running over but was stopped at the door: "Donor, you can't go in anymore. There is a difference between men and women, so please go back."

"Master, I must see her."

"That person has made up her mind to leave the world and become a nun. Please return, benefactor."

Yuan Che shouted, "Are you really going to become a monk? What about me? Can we ever completely break off our past affection?"

Hengti closed her eyes. She was in great pain inside, but she had to harden her heart. In the end, she still did not meet Yuan Che.

Yuan Che knelt in front of the nunnery and refused to leave, so Hengchu took him back.

After returning, Yuan Che fell ill and had a burning fever late at night. Even so, Hengti still did not come.

Half a month later, in the Yangxin Palace, Yuan Che asked Hongli to let him guard the border.

Everyone tried to dissuade him, but Yunxi said, "Your Majesty, please let him go. He will only cause more trouble if he stays here. It would be better for him to go to the border to defend the country."

Hongli asked, "Are you willing to give it up?"

Yunxi sighed: "The child has grown up and has his own ideas. Besides, there is nothing wrong with a man joining the army and fighting in the war."

"Okay, I agree."

After receiving the imperial edict, Yu Rao burst into tears. She treated Yuan Che as her own son and taught him carefully without any harshness.

"The place you are going to is extremely cold now, so you must take good care of yourself."

Yuan Che nodded: "Mother, you must take good care of yourself after your son leaves."
