Chapter 235 There are also things he dare not face

Night, Tianqi Palace Changchun Palace.

On the imperial concubine's chair in the sleeping hall, Xue Jieyu was looking down at a book.

After a while, Su Lan, the maidservant, came in, bowed and replied: "Miss, Concubine Su's palace has sent someone to deliver a message. Said that the emperor will not come to the harem tonight."

Lin Xueer smiled and replied, "Well, good."

As she spoke, she continued to look down at the book, Su Lan stepped forward to take a look, and saw Lin Xueer was reading with a book in one hand, while she was holding a jade pendant and rubbing it with the other.

Su Lan smiled, leaned into Lin Xueer's ear, and said softly: "Miss, you can't put it down even when you are reading a book. Do you miss Master Han?"

Lin Xueer was startled for a moment, raised her head hastily, patted Su Lan with the book in her hand, and said softly, "Don't talk nonsense."

Su Lan smiled and replied softly, "Okay, I won't talk nonsense."

"Miss, that's serious. Have you thought about it? Are you really going to do this?"

Lin Xueer nodded and replied: "That's right. Su Lan, we have been staying in the deep palace like this. There is no way. We have to take this step bravely."

"The emperor has not yet established a queen. Although Concubine Su is in charge of the harem, Concubine Su has always been cautious and considerate. Now she is not a queen. She has room for controlling the harem."

"In this case, it will be much easier for me to ask for an imperial order at that time. But if I want to ask for an imperial order after the queen is registered, I must first obtain the queen's consent before I can go."

"At that time, we will really be unable to move an inch."

"If we succeed, we will be free in the future. If we fail, we will lose our lives at worst."

Su Lan nodded, and replied: "Okay, I will listen to Miss."

At this moment, with guilt in Lin Xueer's eyes, she continued, "Su Lan, it's my fault to ask you to accompany me to take risks like this."

Su Lan shook her head and said with a smile: "Miss, don't say that, we have been together since we were young, and we will always be together in the future. Only when Miss is happy, Su Lan will be happy."

Lin Xueer smiled and replied: "Okay, when we walk far away, no one will notice us. After a long time, no one will think of us."

"When the time comes, let's practice medicine and cure diseases together, and be at ease, okay?"

Su Lan smiled, nodded and said, "Well, I'll listen to Miss."

Then he asked: "Miss, you really don't plan to go to Master Han first? It's always good to have one more person to help!"

Lin Xueer shook her head and said, "Wait a minute. I have to find a chance to ask for an order before I have the chance to go out."

"Tell him now, if I can't get the order in the end, wouldn't that just add to my troubles?"

Su Lan smiled, nodded and said, "Okay, I will listen to Miss."

Immediately, she pulled Lin Xueer up and said, "Miss, go to bed early. I have to go to Yonghe Palace tomorrow morning to pay my respects."

Lin Xueer smiled and replied, "Okay."

It's late at night, the Hall of Mental Cultivation in the Apocalypse Palace.

At this moment, on the dragon couch, Mingxi Emperor Murong Xuan was quietly sleeping.

For a long time, for a long time.

Murong Xuan suddenly frowned, and his expression gradually became painful, as if he wanted to cry but there were no tears, he grasped his hands instantly, and murmured: "Mother Concubine...Mother Concubine..."

Time passed little by little.

In the nightmare, Murong Xuan still clenched his hands tightly, his fingers turned white, and his expression was sad.

"Don't..." Suddenly shouted, Murong Xuan sat up instantly.

At this moment, there is helplessness in the eyes...
Li Yue, Eunuch Li, who was outside the hall heard the yelling, ran into the hall in a hurry, and asked anxiously, "Your Majesty, are you alright?"

However, just ran halfway.

"Get out." Murong Xuan growled instantly.

Li Yue stopped in his tracks for a moment, and hurriedly bowed to salute: "Yes, yes, this servant will go out immediately. You, call your servant if you have something to do."

As he said that, he turned his head and hurriedly ran out again, then closed the hall door and guarded outside the hall door.

Li Yue just stood still, and looked at the gate of the palace worriedly again, with doubts in his eyes... Why is the emperor having a nightmare again?

Then I turned my head to look at the empty bedroom, and shook my head helplessly... When our emperor sleeps at night, there is no need for eunuchs or slaves to guard the inside or outside of the bedroom.

For a long time, I was the only one who guarded the door of this sleeping hall.

At the end of the third year of Zongyuan, when Concubine Mei died of illness, he was temporarily sent to Qianxi Palace to help in the mourning hall.

As a son, he should have stayed in the mourning hall.

But at that time, the mourning hall could not see his figure.All the servants searched everywhere, but they couldn't find him.

There was nothing to do later, and the funeral was still going on.

Since the son didn't come to the mourning hall anymore, the servants under him naturally became more lazy.

On the second night, all the servants who were guarding the spirit at that time slacked off and went to sleep.In the end, I was the only one left in the mourning hall.

It was in the middle of the night, and I suddenly heard a weak cry, and I was terrified at the time.

At that time, I was young and bold, and I was scared at the beginning.But later, he boldly followed the sound to find it.In the end, they actually found the sixth prince Murong Xuan in the darkroom.

At that time, he had passed out on the ground, but he kept murmuring, no.

Seeing his dying appearance, I was so scared that I immediately wanted to call for someone.

But at this time, the sixth prince woke up, grabbed himself, and said not to call anyone, just let me help him out.

There is no way, I can only recite the sixth prince out of the dark room.Went to the inner hall, found a place to rest, and fed him something.Only then did the sixth prince slowly regain his strength.

On the second day, after the sixth prince woke up, he went to the mourning hall to keep watch.

After the funeral, he was supposed to return to the House of Internal Affairs.But at that time, the sixth prince asked the Ministry of Internal Affairs to keep him.

Later, the Ministry of Internal Affairs reported to Queen Ren'an.Empress Ren'an agreed, and she has been serving the sixth prince since then.

And after that, the Sixth Prince made a stricter order not to mention what happened that night again.

So up to now, the sixth prince has been confined in the darkroom of Qianxi Palace.Only the attendants around me know.

At this moment, Li Yue just came back to his senses, and looked up again at the inside and outside of the bright bedroom.

Shaking his head helplessly... starting from himself, when the emperor was sleeping at night, the entire sleeping hall was brightly lit all night.

In the eyes of outsiders, the emperor is the ninety-five supreme being, ruling the world.

But even so, there are some high-ranking emperors that he dare not face!
We, the emperor, actually rarely go to the harem.I only go there when I'm in a good mood.

And every time, he would only stay until the first half of the night, and return to the Hall of Mental Cultivation in the second half of the night.Because he only has nightmares in the second half of the night.

Inside the bedroom.

Emperor Ming Xi on the dragon couch stared blankly ahead, with helplessness in his eyes, and smiled wryly.Slowly, there was a dark look in his eyes, and there was a cold smile on his mouth.

For a long time, for a long time.

Outside the palace gate, Li Yue's voice came: "Your Majesty, it's time to go to court."

Hearing the sound, Emperor Mingxi just came back to his senses, and replied: "Come in."

Looking closely at this moment, the gloom in Murong Xuan's eyes has dissipated.There was no wave on the face, everything that night seemed to have never happened.
