My cold sweat suddenly emerged.

Originally, when I woke up in the morning, I was covered in cold sweat, completely wet my close-fitting clothes because I didn't care about taking care of Miaoyan, but at this time, there was another cold sweat, soaking the clothes that had not been dry before, I felt a cold all over my body, as if my skin was covered with ice.

I shivered for a moment.

When he raised his head, his face was already pale. Chang Qing had asked that sentence carefully. When she looked down at me, she was shocked and immediately stared at me with wide eyes.

It seemed that even she believed it.

Pei Yuanhao was still sitting there without moving, his two powerful fingers slowly stroked the warm jade cicada in his hand, and there was a faint smile on the corner of his mouth: "The Queen asked this is-"

Chang Qing looked back at him, hurriedly cleaned up his panic-looking eyes and said, "After all, this is a matter in the harem."

“…”

"The emperor ordered me to lead the harem. If - if Yan Qingying accepts kindness again, I will naturally make an arrangement for Yan Qingying."

"Then, what are you going to make arrangements?"

The more I said this, the more I felt the real one. The sweat beads on my forehead had condensed, dripping down one by one, and one fell right on the back of Miaoyan's hand that was placed on her knees. She raised her head and looked at me with her eyes.

She was so quiet, probably no matter what kind of torment her mother was experiencing now.

Pei Yuanhao's words were almost showing something. Yang Jinqiao, who had been covering his lower abdomen and standing next to him with a pale face, couldn't help but feel a little relieved at this time. He raised his head to look at me, with a shocked expression on his face, and his eyes seemed to be asking - why are you?

Yes, how could I?

However, if Pei Yuanhao continues to talk, even she thinks that I am really good.

Thinking of this, my scalp numbed, I suddenly stood up and said to Chang Qing: "By the way, I heard that the Prince of the Crown Prince has arrived in Lanyang and is managing the river embankment. His Prince of the Crown Prince has such achievements at such a young age. It is really gratifying. The Queen has taught her well."

Just as all the women were staring, watching, caring about the honor and favor in the harem, I suddenly said something like a spear suddenly plunged into the imperial garden with blooming flowers. It not only despised the scenery, but also scared people. The concubines next to me looked at me, and their eyes looked like they were looking at monsters.

My cold sweat was also rising on my back, but there was no drop of sweat on my face except for the sweat stains I just now.

Chang Qing was stunned for a moment and turned around to look at me.

"How did you know? I haven't known the whereabouts of the prince yet."

"Ah, it was the one who had completely reviewed the memorial last night. When talking about this, the young woman accidentally heard it while accompanying the princess."

...

Suddenly, the entire bedroom became quiet.

All eyes suddenly looked at the desk placed on the other side of the bedroom, with a large stack of memorials on it, which were reviewed by Pei Yuanhao last night.

Although I was devoted to Miaoyan last night and didn't care about what memorials Pei Yuanhao had reviewed outside, I was just hearing his relieved laughter when I was sleeping hazy. Eunuch Yu took the opportunity to come up and talk for a few words, and Pei Yuanhao told the story on the memorial.

Just so happened that I heard it all.

At that time, I was also half-awake, so I didn’t care, but at this moment, this incident helped me a lot.

When Chang Qing saw the mountains of memorials on the table, she immediately said, "It turns out that the emperor reviewed memorials all night last night."

As soon as he finished speaking, he could clearly hear the sound of several sighs in relief in the crowd.

I also breathed a sigh of relief in my heart.

Although—I did wake up in his arms this morning, and I don’t know what he did to me when he climbed into bed, at least, for the sake of face, this matter must be overwhelmed!

Pei Yuanhao's face sank slightly. I don't know if it was because he saw the stack of memorials that reminded him of the difficult government affairs he was facing, or the night I denied it now, but only glanced at his sudden dark eyes, I also knew that I had annoyed him.

But now, it’s not about whether to annoy him or not.

No matter what my current identity is or whoever I am, I don’t want to be dragged into this harem again, and I don’t want to be one of the most beautiful people in front of me one day.

So I said again: "It is very hard for His Majesty the Emperor to review memorials all night, and the people of the people should not disturb His Majesty the Emperor and all the ladies here."

After saying that, I reached out to hold Miaoyan's hand.

"Miaoyan, we--"

Before I could finish my words, a cold voice interrupted me: "You finish the meal first."

“…”

My heart leaped and I looked up at him.

Pei Yuanhao was still sitting there, his posture did not change for a moment, but the two fingers that were stroking Yu Chan were pinching the sunken place of Yu Chan with force, and his joints turned white, as if he was constantly exerting force.

If it weren't for the hard Jade Cicada, I'm afraid that everything in his hand would be crushed.

For some reason, I suddenly remembered the wine glass he had crushed in front of us.

At this moment, I don't even doubt that he might want to pinch my throat in his hand.

Chang Qing and the others didn't know what to say for a moment, and stood there blankly.

Pei Yuanhao lowered his head, didn't look at me, and just said coldly: "Didn't you hear what I said?"

“…”

There was another silence. I held Miaoyan's hand, my palm was covered in cold sweat, and I didn't even know what to do next. Eunuch Yu outside walked in at this time and said with a smile: "Miss Yan guarded His Highness the Princess for a night last night. Even if it was a person who was beaten, I couldn't stand it. The emperor felt sorry for you, sit down quickly."

After saying that, he pulled a brocade stool in front of me and dusted it with the whisk in his hand.

In fact, it was very inappropriate for him to do this. After all, there was still a table of food in front of him, but when he was doing this, he raised his head and looked at me and frowned vigorously.

...

I was silent for a moment, finally let go of Miaoyan's hand, walked over, nodded and accused the empresses, and then sat down.

When I sat down, some people breathed a sigh of relief.

Pei Yuanhao continued: "Supply her rice."

Eunuch Yu came up in person, served me a bowl of porridge and put it carefully in my hand, and said with a smile: "Miss Yan, please use it."

I held the bowls and chopsticks, but my fingers seemed to be frozen. I didn't know how to use them. I said to the group of concubines who were still at a loss in front of me, "You, and those who have not used breakfast, should you sit down?"

“…”

This is said calmly, but who dares to sit down?

Concubine Ning Yang Jinqiao was the first to say: "The emperor forgives the crime. I am a little uncomfortable, so I will take the blame first."

After saying that, he turned around and took Xiaojia away.

Immediately afterwards, some people made excuses about their own palace and some were unwell. Several concubines took their leave one after another. Finally, Chang Qing also walked to Pei Yuanhao and quietly fell to the ground, saying, "Your Majesty, it is a great joy to have improved the princess's condition, but please take care of it and don't waste your dragon body for the sake of state affairs. I will leave first."

Pei Yuanhao finally gave her some face and nodded: "Go back. Your health is not good either. Don't run around so early in the morning."

"I understand."

After saying that, she left too.

Nangong Lizhu is still left.

Just now, when the concubines were already in a mess, she, who was the first to come, became quiet and stood by her, like an outsider watching coldly. But now, everyone has left, so she, an outsider, will naturally be involved.

Pei Yuanhao finally raised his head and looked at her.

A faint smile appeared on Nangong Lizhu's face, and then said, "Don't blame me, I'm not going to rely on the emperor for breakfast."

Pei Yuanhao looked at her, and there was a hint of softening in his angered eyebrows: "What are you talking about?"

"I am joking with the emperor," she smiled, her smile full of obedience and considerateness, as if it was driven by her virtuousness and kindness when she arrived early in the morning. She smiled and said, "I just want to see the princess again."

"oh?"

"Speaking of this, I have never seen what the normal princess looks like?"

“…”

"I guess, I must be very well-behaved?"

Pei Yuanhao's originally cold face softened a little more at this moment, as if it was blown by a warm wind, and there was a little more tenderness in his eyebrows and eyes.

He was silent for a moment and said, "Yes."

"I really hope that His Highness the Princess can recover soon and become the lively and cute little girl the emperor said."

She said, taking a step toward Miaoyan.

I immediately put the bowls and chopsticks in my hand on the table.

However, she only took one step.

That step was just a distance that would not anger me. Then, Nangong Lizhu bent down and said with a smile: "Your Highness, do you know that many people in this palace are hoping that you can get better. If you get better, the emperor's heart disease will be cured."

“…”

"And I, I..."

As she said, her eyes suddenly turned red and her voice choked. She couldn't speak and stood up as if she was unable to speak, rubbing her red nose with her fingertips.

Pei Yuanhao looked at her and suddenly his voice softened: "Zhu'er..."

Nangong Lizhu hurriedly reached out to cover my own mouth, took a deep breath, and then forced a smile and said, "I'm fine."

“…”

"Your Majesty, you have to have a meal with Your Highness the Princess, so I will take my leave first."

After saying that, she turned around and walked out.

Ruizhu, who had been waiting by the side, hurriedly stepped forward to support her arm. When the master and servant were about to step out, Nangong Lizhu suddenly stopped, looked back at me, and said, "Your Majesty, I have something to say."

"……you say."
