Chapter 140 Dream Talk
After Mei Dai served the drunk Emperor Yongde to sleep, she lowered the curtain.Putting on a robe, she walked to the window on the second floor and looked at the bright moon in the night sky.

The moonlight shines on the surface of the exquisite railings of Yusheng Building, like flowing water in a trance.In the cold air, there was the sound of iron armor when the imperial guards patrolled in the distance.

Emperor Yongde moved to the Changchun Palace for a banquet today, and was drunk with her company, so she could be herself in this short period of time without having to watch her words and demeanor.

Since entering the palace, she has positioned herself very accurately.She did not enter the palace to curry favor with Emperor Yongde, all the flattery was a play on the spot, all for the ultimate goal of saving Xiliang's foundation.

Emperor Yongde was not stupid, and he knew all of this, but he couldn't resist her beauty.

A hero is sad for a beauty pass, not to mention Emperor Yongde.

She still remembers what her grandfather said to her two years ago when he was seriously ill.

"Granddaughter, it's grandpa's fault for letting you take on such a big responsibility," the old Xiliang king reluctantly looked at her with his cloudy eyes. In the end, the rise and fall of our Mei family depends on you alone."

She was only 16 years old at the time, but she already understood a lot of truths.

Some people are born to enjoy blessings, while others are born to bear heavy responsibilities.Although she belongs to the latter, she has no complaints.All this has long been preordained.

Grandpa began to cultivate her royal etiquette when she was very young. At that time, her elder brother, Maple, could be said to be like a father like a son. He behaved mischievously all day long and had no hope in sight like his father.

Perhaps the grandfather at that time had already planned for a rainy day and began to think about the future of the Mei family.

As a daughter, she can neither accuse her father of incompetence.He was also unable to save his brother's worsening condition.The only thing she can do is obey her grandfather's arrangement and enter the palace to serve a man she doesn't like, who is old enough to be her father.

This is not all, she also needs to show her admiration and reverence for this man, and she must not show any indifference towards him.

One day is easy, even one month is fine... But people have to reveal their true side after all.

She held the railing with both hands, feeling the coldness in her palms.

I don't know why, my brother has not sent a messenger to deliver the letter during this time.The only news she knew was that her father, Mei Cheng, was first besieged by the Xirong army in Leshan City, and then the Xirong army broke away from the siege.But I don't know if it was Xiao Zhuo's help.

It is good news to know that my father is safe.

No matter how incompetent Mei Cheng is, he is also her father.Just like her brother, no matter what Mip becomes, she won't feel disgusted at all.Without them, she would not know the meaning of her life.

She lives for the Mei family, and to keep the Mei family's foundation.

A voice from behind suddenly interrupted her thoughts, Emperor Yongde seemed to wake up.

Mei Dai calmed down, and Yingying turned around.Her face has returned to her usual expression, charming and dignified, quiet and provocative.

Even a momentary look of real eyes might make her lose Emperor Yongde's favor.She always told herself in her heart that she must not make mistakes.

Inside the curtain, Emperor Yongde didn't call her, but another person's name.

"Zhuo'er...hehe...my son."

It turned out that Emperor Yongde was talking in his sleep.

Ever since she served Emperor Yongde, it was the first time that Emperor Yongde talked in his sleep, could it be caused by being drunk.

The Zhuoer he mentioned can only be Xiao Zhuo.But Emperor Yongde deposed him and wanted to hunt him down, yet he was so kind in his dream.

Why is he so conflicted?
Mei Dai was puzzled, she moved her footsteps lightly to approach the dragon bed, and at the same time took a cup of fragrant tea from the table next to her.In case Emperor Yongde woke up suddenly, she could use an excuse to pour tea for him to hangover.

"Zhuo'er...after a hundred years, this thousand miles of land...will be yours." Emperor Yongde murmured vaguely in his sleep.

Mei Dai suddenly realized that Emperor Yongde must have dreamed about the past.

At that time, he should still love Xiao Zhuo a lot.

When she entered the palace two years ago, Xiao Zhuo had already fought against foreigners in Beidi.At that time, Empress Pei was still alive, and this was the only person she was afraid of in the entire harem.

Empress Pei is not only graceful, but also the mother of the world.It seems that there is also a pair of wise eyes, which can see what each concubine is thinking.Out of guilty conscience, she tried her best to avoid meeting Empress Pei.She really couldn't avoid it, she would rather let other concubines show off than fight for it.Among the concubines in the harem, she was almost invisible.

At that time, she understood that it would be difficult for her to confuse Emperor Yongde with Empress Pei, who is perceptive.Forbearance is the most important thing.

Later, the situation changed suddenly, and Emperor Yongde recruited Xiao Zhuo back by bestowing a marriage. Suddenly, he deposed Xiao Zhuo and exiled him for thousands of miles.It is said that someone exposed Xiao Zhuo secretly using witchcraft to murder Emperor Yongde.

From Mei Dai's point of view at the time, this was simply impossible.

Xiao Zhuo has been established as the crown prince for many years, he is the next emperor, there is absolutely no need to murder his father to fight for a position that already belonged to him.

Next, Emperor Yongde gave the queen to death on the grounds that the mother and son were accomplices.

Mei Dai had no time to pay attention to the inside story of these incidents, and she finally got the chance to be in charge.The person she feared was gone.

"Bitch! You're acting well."

Emperor Yongde suddenly yelled bitterly.

Mei Dai was startled, thinking that Emperor Yongde was talking about her, she was about to kneel down to plead guilty in panic, when she noticed that Emperor Yongde still had his eyes closed.Only then did I know that he was still talking in his sleep.

It was too late to think about the meaning of Emperor Yongde's words, she knew that if this continued, Emperor Yongde would definitely wake up.She can no longer wait passively.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty." Mei Dai sat on the side of the bed, put her hand on Emperor Yongde's forehead and called softly.

A lot of sweat oozed from Emperor Yongde's forehead, this dream seemed to make him very excited.

Emperor Yongde suddenly opened his eyes and looked around nervously. When he saw that the woman beside him was Mei Dai, Fang heaved a sigh of relief, put his hand on the back of Mei Dai's hand and said:
"My concubine, my head hurts so much."

Mei Dai took a veil from the side to wipe off his sweat, and said softly: "Your Majesty has drunk a lot, so naturally he will have a headache when he wakes up."

"I... have you been talking in your sleep just now?" Emperor Yongde closed his eyes and asked seemingly casually.

Mei Dai's heart tightened.

She didn't know whether she should tell Emperor Yongde the truth.

If Emperor Yongde wakes up, remember what he said in his dream.She can't make it up.But if you tell Emperor Yongde what he was talking about in his sleep, what if these things are things she shouldn't know.

After several battles in her mind, Mei Dai still made a decision.If he hesitated any longer, Emperor Yongde would notice her abnormality.

"The concubine was by His Majesty's side, and when she heard His Majesty's repeated thirst, she immediately stood up and poured tea for His Majesty." She handed over the fragrant tea she had already held in her hand, "Your Majesty just woke up, please use it."

"Oh, my beloved concubine really knows my heart." Emperor Yongde glanced at the teacup in her hand, took it and drank it down in one gulp.

Seeing that Emperor Yongde didn't see through her lie, Mei Dai was relieved, knowing that this matter had been concealed.She put the teacup back, got on the bed, tucked up the curtain, and lay down beside Emperor Yongde.Just as he was about to say a few words to Emperor Yongde, he found that Emperor Yongde had fallen asleep again.

Mei Dai observed carefully, saw that his breathing was even, not like he was pretending to be asleep, so she felt relieved.After all, Emperor Yongde drank so much wine that he couldn't wake up quickly.

But who is the "slut" in his mouth talking about?Are you talking about her?

If you're talking about her, it's serious.She thinks she has been favored by Emperor Yongde, but she doesn't know what Emperor Yongde really thinks. This will probably push the Mei family into the abyss.

This matter may seem small, but it cannot be easily let go.
