The first thing Cheng Lingyu did when she returned to the second prince's residence was to find out how to take the pill and what preparations she needed to make.
Fortunately, the second prince didn't care about her at all. The servants in the residence also knew that this master wasn't favored and didn't have any hobbies other than reading books. Therefore, no one cared about her.
Cheng Lingyu flipped through several ancient books, which all said that the pill could be taken directly.
And the effect was very fast. The result could be seen in one night, whether it was a success or a failure.
However, the effect of the pill was very strong. When it took effect, it would be very painful. Moreover, it couldn't be disturbed, so it was best to find a quiet environment.
A quiet environment? Then it was impossible to go to the second prince's residence.
Cheng Lingyu found a time and told the housekeeper that she wanted to go to a villa on the outskirts of the city to relax for a while.
When she said this, her tone was very sad. The housekeeper remembered that the second prince had taken a fancy to a flower girl in Zuiyue Brothel.
It seemed that she was unhappy.
Previously, the second prince had told the housekeeper to take care of everything in the backyard if it wasn't important. The housekeeper didn't inform the second prince and only ordered a few good guards to follow her to the villa to protect Cheng Lingyu's safety.
Cheng Lingyu successfully made her way to the secluded courtyard.
Because she was a female, the guards only waited outside the courtyard and didn't come in. It was very convenient.
She told them in advance that she would wake up late in the morning and asked them not to disturb her. The guards all said they understood.
That night, Cheng Lingyu sat on the bed and looked at the jade bottle for a long time. Finally, she pulled out the jade stopper and took out a round, jade-colored pill.
After looking at it for a while, she put it into her mouth without hesitation.
At first, she didn't feel anything. Slowly, from her dantian, it began to heat up. The heat wasn't obvious at first, but then it became heavier and heavier. It even reached the point of burning, and then it spread throughout her body.
There seemed to be a "boom" sound, as if some switch had been turned on in her body. Her entire body, from head to toe, whether it was her internal organs, skin, or even a strand of hair, she felt as if she had been scalded.
Pain.
The extreme pain spread throughout her body, as if there were countless blades cutting her body under her skin.
Cheng Lingyu knew that this was the process of reshaping her bone structure.
She couldn't help but groan. Back when she was still the Queen of Mercenaries, she had been plotted against and hunted down for seven days and seven nights. The gunshot wound on her calf hadn't been treated in time, and she hadn't even frowned when it was red and swollen.
That little bit of pain was nothing compared to what he was feeling now.
Her consciousness was already a little dizzy from the pain …
Realizing this, she suddenly gathered her remaining strength without hesitation and fiercely bit the tip of her tongue.
It was just an increase in pain, but this action allowed her to regain a trace of clarity.
He couldn't fall asleep. Otherwise, he might fall asleep forever.
She secretly cheered herself on. She had sacrificed so much, planned for so long, and finally saw a little hope of success. How could she allow herself to kneel at this last step?
