Reborn into Young Master Huo’s Little Fairy - Chapter 538

Chapter 538: The Reason for Infertility

Wen Ruan raised her head and looked at the man’s ordinary face. She was stunned for a moment.

“Young Master Leng?”

The man tightened his grip on her fingers and his dark eyes darkened.” Who else did you think it was?”

He was wearing a guard uniform and disguised himself as a guard of Fairspring Palace.

Wen Ruan’s long eyelashes trembled slightly. Just as she was about to say something, the man’s deep and cold voice sounded again.” How did your fingers become like this?”

Her fair and slender fingers were as delicate as jade onions, and the marks on her fingertips that had been stabbed by the crab shell were unusually obvious.

He pulled her finger and sucked on it.

His actions stunned her.

The warm touch made her feel numb. She wanted to pull her hand back, but he kept sucking on the balls.

“This is the palace, don’t be like this.”

Huo Hannian glared at Wen Ruan coldly.” Who hurt you?”

“It’s just a small injury. Don’t worry about it.”

He knew her temper. If she didn’t want to say it, no one could force her to say it.

He handed her the things he had brought.” I’ll stay and protect you for the time being.”

Wen Ruan grabbed Huo Hannian’s arm.” Will it be dangerous?””

“You don’t have to worry about my safety. On the other hand, your hand is already injured like this when you just came in.”

As he spoke, he took out a bracelet from his pocket, took her hand, and slipped it around her slender wrist.

“There is an anesthetic needle in the bracelet. The dosage is enough to knock out an elephant. When you encounter danger, press this switch.”

Although he had tried his best to come to Splendid Spring Palace as a guard, he could not always protect her. This bracelet could protect her in an emergency.

Wen Ruan looked at the man in front of her, her eyes watery.

She threw herself into his arms and sniffed the familiar scent on his body. Her nose felt sour.

Although he had not recalled the past, she could feel that he was becoming more and more interested in her.

Huo Hannian returned Wen Ruan’s embrace. For a moment, he wished he could strangle her into his own flesh and blood.

His slender hand gently patted her slender back.” I can’t stay here for too long. I have to leave immediately.””

Wen Ruan gave a soft hum.

He lowered his head and planted a kiss on the corner of her lips.” There are many dangers in the palace. You must take good care of yourself.”

..

The news of Wen Ruan being put in a spot by Princess Ya quickly spread to Princess Li.

Princess Li and Princess Bea entered the palace first. She was the distant niece of the deposed Empress Dowager and had been doted on for a while back then. However, because the current Empress Dowager and the deposed Empress Dowager were sworn enemies, Nangong Xiao did not dare to make his mother unhappy, so he slowly gave Princess Li the cold shoulder.

Princess Li sent someone to invite Wen Ruan to her palace.

Compared to Princess Ya’s elegance, Princess Li was much more elegant.

Princess Li had an oriental appearance and had the charm of an oriental classic beauty.

When she saw Wen Ruan coming over, she smiled warmly and invited her to take a seat.

Her every action and smile revealed the temperament of a young lady from a wealthy family.

She was a completely different type from the arrogant and domineering Princess Ya.

Seeing Wen Ruan’s injured finger, Princess Princess Li held her hand and shook her head with a pained expression.” Such a beautiful hand, it’s a pity to get hurt.””

Princess Li sent a maid to bring the ointment.” Take this back. You’ll be fine soon.””

“Thank you, Princess Li.”

Wen Ruan chatted with Princess Li for a while and was about to leave when a broken jade pendant fell out.

Wen Ruan’s long eyelashes fluttered. Just as she was about to pick up the jade pendant, Consort Li was one step ahead of her and picked it up.

Her gentle gaze suddenly turned sharp.” Where did you get this?”

“Replying to Princess Li, this was given to me by your aunt.”

What was that?

Princess Princess Li’s expression changed.” What happened?”

Wen Ruan told him about the night he saw the deposed Empress Dowager.

Princess Li held the jade pendant tightly in her palm and was silent for a long time.”No wonder you looked familiar when I first saw you. You really look like my aunt when she was young.”

Princess Li returned the jade pendant to Wen Ruan.” Princess Ya asked you to peel the crab with your bare hands. Your fingers are injured like this. You must have done it on purpose, right? You know that I don’t get along with Princess Ya. If she doesn’t like someone, I will definitely call them to the palace to comfort them. When the jade pendant fell out just now, you deliberately let me see it, right?”

Wen Ruan’s lips curled up slightly.” Princess Li is right.”

Princess Li narrowed her beautiful eyes.” I don’t like girls who are too scheming.”

“But without a bit of scheming, I’m afraid it’s difficult to move an inch in this palace.”

Princess Li leaned against the soft couch and looked at Wen Ruan thoughtfully.” Tell me, what do you want me to help you with?”

“I want to see the old king, the Noodle of the Ream.”

“I’m afraid that won’t be easy. The old king rarely shows his face in recent years.”Princess Li supported her chin with her fingers and said after a while,” The old king’s seventieth birthday is in two months. If you want to see him, that’s the only time.”

Two months later?

It took longer than Wen Ruan had expected.

During this period of time, he couldn’t pretend to be sick every time or use the aphrodisiac to fool them.

However, if he wanted to see the old king, he could only stay.

Wen Ruan looked at the bracelet on Consort Li’s jade wrist and frowned.

Princess Li noticed that Wen Ruan was staring at her bracelet and her eyes revealed a hint of confusion.” What are you looking at?”

“I see that Princess Ya has the same bracelet.”

Princess Li nodded.” When Princess Ya and I were conferred the title of Princess Consort, the Queen gave it to us.”

Wen Ruan pursed her lips.” Can I take a look?”

Princess Li took off the bracelet and handed it to Wen Ruan. Wen Ruan took it and looked at it carefully before putting it to his nose to sniff.

A faint fragrance drifted into his nose.

Wen Ruan’s sense of smell was better than the average person’s. She could even distinguish the smell of a very faint fragrance.

Wen Ruan’s expression changed when she smelled the fragrance in the bracelet.” Princess Li, forgive me for being presumptuous, but have you had a child with the King all these years?”

The maid beside Princess Li scolded angrily,” How dare you? Who allowed you to ask about Princess Li’s private matters?”

Princess Li raised her hand.” It’s alright. It’s been so many years. I’ve already thought it through. Children and parents need fate.”

“I was pregnant in the first year after I entered the palace, but I miscarried in less than three months. I sympathize with Princess Ya in this regard.”

Wen Ruan pursed her lips and lowered her long eyelashes. She broke the bracelet and one end of the bracelet was broken.” Princess Li, the bracelet contains muskiness. This fragrance is mixed with other frafragrances and is not easy to detect. However, if you wear it for a long time, it will cause infertility.”

What was that?

Princess Li walked over and took the bracelet. She took a closer look at it, and her pupils contracted slightly. She took a few steps back unsteadily.

“I see. What a vicious woman!”Princess Li’s face was twisted with hatred.” She can’t bear any more children, and she wants us to be like her!”
