Chapter 3: Rebirth and the System
"No!"
A sudden cry of fear pierced through the layers of curtains, through the winding vestibules and corridors, startling Lingyu, who was sitting in front of the door to take a nap.
She shook her head slightly, quickly stood up, and walked into the room.
The smoker in the room smoked Sanyun incense, and the aroma was cold with a hint of sweetness. Lingyu walked through the corridor in the room, stepped into the back room, lifted the silk curtain with intricate patterns, and shouted softly, "County Lord? ”
Ruan Qingge woke up suddenly, only to realize that the cry just now came from his own mouth.
She lay on the bed and stared distractedly at the pearl tassels hanging from the top, the cold sweat on her forehead reminding her of the nightmare she had just experienced.
Is it really just a nightmare?
Ruan Tingge looked at the familiar pearl spike and was stunned for a long time, and only then did he stand up and sit up when he heard Lingyu shouting a few more times outside the door.
Outside, the sun shines through the curtain on the precious sideboard, and the brown-red vase reflects the warm light. It seemed that she had been in the dark cold palace for a long time, and she was not used to such a strong light, and squinted slightly at the room.
Looking at the familiar furnishings in the house, Ruan Tingge was in a trance again.
This is actually the dormitory where she has been in the palace since she was a child, it is actually the palace of Fenyang, and it is the place where she wants to go back to the cold palace for countless days and nights.
She's back?
A complicated expression slowly appeared on her face, and the previous scene seemed to have only happened recently, and it was extremely clear in her mind.
The heart-wrenching pain of hearing the death of his father and brother, the pain after the onset of poison, and the heart-rending deep hatred in his heart.
How did the painful and long torture before death suddenly turn into the quiet appearance of the years?
Ruan Tingge smelled the smell of Sanyun incense, which he loved most before, and couldn't help but take a deep breath.
She shook her slightly swollen head, lifted the brocade quilt and got out of bed, stepped barefoot on the ground covered with fox fur, walked to the mirror, and looked at herself in the mirror.
The person in the mirror has snow-white skin, thin eyebrows and apricot eyes, and a beautiful face with a hint of immaturity, which is exactly Ruan Tingge when he was fourteen or fifteen years old.
How can it just be a nightmare? She was twenty-two before she died, and she still remembers all the experiences of the past seven or eight years clearly, how could it be that it was just a dream to experience?
Is she back to when she was fourteen or fifteen years old?
Ruan Qingge stretched out her hand to caress herself in the mirror in a daze, and couldn't help but touch her face anxiously, after feeling the slippery touch, she couldn't help but take a long breath, forcing herself to stop thinking about the picture of her face rotting and suppurating before.
"The opening conditions have been met, and the peerless water system is on..."
Suddenly, a neutral mechanical voice sounded in Ruan Qinge's head, startling her to take a small step back.
"Who is it?" Ruan Tingge shouted in a low voice and looked around.
The voice never rang out again, as if it had just been her hallucination.
Although the voice never sounded again, a translucent light screen suddenly appeared in front of Ruan Tingge's eyes, and there were many lines of words densely packed on it.
After such a painful death and a bizarre rebirth, Ruan Tingge was much calmer, although she was shocked by this strange thing, she still settled down and was not frightened to call out again.
She looked at the light screen, wondering what was written on it:

Although many words and sentences on the light screen made Ruan Tingge a little confused, she also roughly understood some of the meanings.
Even if Ruan Qingge had just experienced such a painful past life, she called the nightmare like a real experience "past life" in her heart, and she couldn't help frowning when she saw those sharp and ugly comments on the light screen.
However, Ruan Tingge didn't get too entangled in the matter of the light screen, and her mind was now full of shock and disbelief that she was back at the age of fourteen.
She slowly realized that since she had returned, it didn't mean that everything before could be restarted, and her loved ones would not be tortured and die because of their stupidity.
So, can all the regrets be irreparable?
The more Ruan Qinge thought about it, the more he became distracted, and he couldn't help but stand in front of the mirror for a long time, until he was brought back to reality by Lingyu's incessant call.
"My county lord, why are you standing barefoot on the ground, careful of catching a cold." Lingyu passed through the door curtain and saw Ruan Tingge standing in front of the dresser in a daze, and couldn't help but walk forward quickly, while worrying about it, while helping Ruan Tingge back to the bedside.
Seeing that his former closest personal maid was standing in front of him, looking at her big round eyes and neatly combed sideburns, Ruan Tingge really had a feeling of coming back to life.
She couldn't suppress the joy and gratitude in her heart, and suddenly hugged Lingyu, and shouted in a trembling voice, "Lingyu." ”
Lingyu was stunned, she didn't dare to break free from Ruan Qingge's embrace, she just blushed and whispered, "County Lord, what's wrong?" Just had a nightmare? ”
Ruan Qingge's head rested on Lingyu's shoulder, and he said sullenly, "I had a terrible nightmare. ”
She adjusted her mood, let go of Lingyu, and said with a smile, "But it's much better now." ”
Lingyu smiled, "The county lord scared Lingyu." She felt that today's county lord seemed to be a little different, and her eyes were especially emotional.
However, she thought it was because of a nightmare, so she didn't think too much about it, and asked, "County Lord, it's already a moment of time, do you want to change your clothes?" ”
Ruan Tingge nodded.
Lingyu went out and gave a few orders, and called in the maidservants who were waiting for the washing.
