The host and the protagonist had a happy ending again [Quick Transmigration]

Before Yu Ying could explain things to Yue Hua, she thoroughly searched the entire Yu Hua Palace and finally found an old, outdated book.

Her veil fell to the ground, and before she could pick it up, she hurriedly headed towards Ninghui Palace with her face, which was badly scratched by the hairpin, and the book in her hand.

The woman in her thirties ran all the way through the palace, frightening the young palace maids along the way. She was then repeatedly told by Eunuch Zhao Fu in Ninghui Hall to keep quiet.

Pei Guan was still asleep, so Yu Ying handed the booklet to Xu Ran.

"The booklet that the late emperor used to record the elixirs he took," she gasped for breath. "The Regent is a good man; he has been kind to me, and I have no intention of harming him."

She didn't mean to harm Pei Guan. Pei Guan saved her, her child, and Tian Qi.

Xu Ran nodded. "I know."

He hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Madam, would you like to become Empress Dowager?"

Yu Ying's eyes first showed panic, then glistened with tears, "What does Your Majesty want me to answer?"

Xu Ran said gently, "Any answer is fine. If you wish to ascend to a higher position, please take up residence in the Ning Shou Palace. If you do not wish to do so, you may go out for a walk and take a look."

Yu Ying's tears fell to the ground. She whispered, "What will His Majesty and the Regent do?"

Xu Ran looked at the person on the bed and wondered what to do. He could save Pei Guan.

He came here to save Pei Guan.

Yu Ying handed over all the Reincarnation Pills in her hand to Xu Ran, and even the one that Pei Guan had dropped on the ground was confiscated by Xu Ran.

The system worked overtime and finally analyzed a feasible treatment method.

"You'll just have to suffer a bit," the system told Xu Ran.

Pei Guan couldn't take any more Reincarnation Pills; the pain from the attack was unbearable, and he had to rely on Xu Ran.

Xu Ran didn't take this offense to heart.

The system whispered, "I'll secretly bring in a little bit of your data; it'll make you feel better."

Xu Ran was surprised, "Does the main system allow this kind of cheating?"

The system clenched its fist. "Sneak it away, keep it from it."

Xu Ran smiled; how could this be hidden from the main system?

When Pei Guan woke up, it was already completely dark, but a candle was still burning on the table, and a figure sat there quietly, with memorials piled up like a small mountain.

"Why are there so many?"

  Updates take time and effort, so please remember to share 101kanshu.com.

The person's voice was still a little hoarse after the illness, but the guardedness and aloofness had faded, replaced by a rare relaxed smile, which, if listened to closely, even contained a hint of teasing.

Xu Ran suddenly turned around, and the person on the bed was already half-sitting up, looking at him gently with misty gray eyes.

"Because the Regent did not approve my memorial today."

The man was somewhat surprised, but immediately admitted the crime, saying, "It was my fault, Your Majesty, that caused you trouble."

Xu Ran's anger immediately dissipated; he had no way to deal with this person.

Xu Ran walked to the bedside and gently pressed her hand against Pei Guan's chest. The silk undergarment was thin, and Xu Ran's palm could feel an uneven mark beneath it.

There was a deep knife wound there, almost tearing open the man's chest. The wound had long since healed, but the scar was still shocking to behold.

"When did you get injured?"

Pei Guan was taken aback. "Your Majesty... changed my nightgown?"

"Don't worry, I just changed my clothes."

Pei Guan: "That's not what I meant."

Xu Ran chuckled lightly, "That's what I meant."

His Majesty's hand was still on his chest, and the emperor's thin lips parted slightly above him, enunciating clearly, "I do indeed harbor ill intentions towards you."

Pei Guan hastily avoided his gaze, "It was that year when I returned to the capital, I didn't bring too many people to avoid alerting the enemy, and we were ambushed on the way."

Xu Ran paused, then lowered his hand. He had rushed back to the capital to protect the emperor before his injuries had healed, and was then forced to take the Reincarnation Pill, and then took over a chaotic court.

The others, however, only said that Pei Guan was young and successful, held a high position, was invincible on the battlefield, and stirred up trouble in the court.

Little did he know that the seventeen-year-old boy carried a heavy responsibility, and one wrong move could lead to utter ruin.

Xu Ran felt some resentment, but couldn't quite put her finger on what it was.

He spoke slowly, "Pei Guan, do you hate the late emperor?"

Upon hearing this, Pei Guan immediately understood that Xu Ran knew everything. He remained silent for a long time before saying, "I don't hate her."

When he received the secret summons, he thought His Majesty trusted him. He was full of ambition on his way back from the northern frontier. After learning the truth, he was only disappointed, but he did not hate him.

Looking at Pei Guanping's peaceful expression, Xu Ran knew he had long since let go of his resentment.

"And what about me? Have you ever complained?"

Pei Guan was surprised, but nodded honestly.

He had resented it, but the young emperor was different from the late emperor. He had truly devoted himself to protecting and teaching him, and he genuinely held a glimmer of hope in his heart.

Xu Ran fell silent.

What should he do? Tell Pei Guan that he wasn't the same emperor as before, that Tianqi didn't believe in ghosts and gods, and that such an absurd thing as the emperor being switched would never happen in the palace.

Pei Guan suddenly tugged at Xu Ran's sleeve. "Is His Majesty's name Xu Ran?"

Xu Ran was slightly taken aback.

The man then asked tentatively with a smile, "Xu Ran."

"Mmm," Xu Ran replied subconsciously.

Pei Guan spoke again: "Why does Your Majesty care? Your Majesty has never harmed me."

Xu Ran was immediately exasperated. This person was the type to forget what he had been taught a lesson. Just as he was about to give him a lecture, a thought suddenly flashed through his mind. Once the thought came to him, he couldn't stop thinking about it, and it made his heart burn.

"Are you...?"

"Xu Ran," Pei Guan said, a slight smile playing on his lips, a glint of light in his eyes, "Your Majesty seemed pleased when I called your name."

I didn't think he was being rude or presumptuous; on the contrary, I was very happy.

The former young emperor disliked this name, finding it too casual. He resented the second prince, born to the imperial concubine, whose name was Xu Jing, which sounded much more imposing than his own.

The emperor's gloom vanished completely, and he nodded earnestly, "I like it very much."

This level of suggestion is permitted.

Pei Guan asked, "Is there anything else? Can't you tell me?"

Xu Ran nodded, "I can't say." Feeling that wasn't enough, she added, "It won't hurt anyone."

"Oh." That's alright then.

Pei Guan thought for a moment and felt it necessary to explain, "In the past, I only had reverence for Your Majesty and a desire to protect the young."

Xu Ran leaned back on the tatami mat, arms crossed. "And now?"

"I do not know."

Pei Guan felt extremely annoyed that his words sounded like those of a playboy in a brothel, manipulating people's hearts.

The emperor smiled reassuringly and said, "No rush."

Pei Guan pursed his lips: "Your Majesty should not waste your time on me."

Wasted on a dying person.

"I have a particular fondness for doing things that defy fate."

Xu Ran took out a set of silver needles from his sleeve. "I have a way to cure you. Trust me."

The emperor had studied many things, but medicine was definitely not among them.

Pei Guan slowly looked away and softly hummed in agreement.

He trusted Xu Ran, and most importantly, he wanted Xu Ran to do whatever he wanted.
