This queen is not too curly

He was also unable to determine when this trace of delusion arose.

Maybe it was the moment when he saw her and felt irritable for no reason, or maybe it was the moment when he felt evil when he saw her in comfort... But he really caught that ferocious illusory thought when he first woke up that night.

As night fell, heavy rain fell, and water droplets splashed on the window sill, arousing the old fear in his chest.

He doesn't know where he is.

I only know that when I open my eyes, everything in front of me is not very real.

The man was lying in his arms, his soft hair touched his neck, and his pale face was slightly warm under the candlelight.

He didn't dare to move, and he didn't dare to breathe easily.

Because the cold fragrance lingering in his dreams is really surrounding him at this moment.

Suddenly, he whispered, "... Ning Bai?"

In the darkness, he heard his own voice.

The hoarse voice seemed to come from underground.

The man's brows were wrinkled, and he gave a "hmm" reluctantly.

Just this sound made all the blood in his whole body rush to the top of his head, he couldn't breathe, and he couldn't see her face clearly, his fingertips were as painful and numb as if everything had been pierced by needles.

That trace of delusion was clearly born from that time.

The soul hangs in the void, watching itself doing stupid things calmly and mockingly.

He grabbed her, forced her to look up, and whispered to her sleeping face: "Ning Bai."

This time she didn't respond, but frowned slightly.

So he bent down, bit her neck lightly, and then called out in a low voice: "Ning Bai."

The person seemed to be in a dream, and after being disturbed by his voice, she struggled dissatisfiedly, and because of the small space, she could only change from one uncomfortable position to another in his arms .

Then, obviously, she blew up.

"Shut up, stop screaming, and sleep well."

She buried her head in his chest, not knowing if she was threatening the person in the dream or him: "If you call again, I will hit you."

With her eyes closed, she spoke the most outrageous words in the most confused and soft tone.

At that moment everything was silent.

Chen Ling heard his own heartbeat clearly.

Excited messy heartbeat.

It seems to be reviving after a long absence.

Suddenly there was thunder outside the house.

The person was disturbed and struggled in his arms again, then she rubbed her forehead and opened her eyes with difficulty.

In the dark, dimly lit by candlelight.

Only those eyes were clear and clear, as if they had never been touched by the dirt and pollution of this world.

He had seen eyes like that, in that hopeless, dark cave.

She came with a torch and landed in his world.

But now, it's like in a dream.

When the man came to his senses, his eyes gradually became introverted and vain, turning into the hypocrisy he was familiar with.

"...Your Majesty?" The voice belonged to Yan Yuan.

The cold fragrance is still there, lingering leisurely.

He didn't want to come out of the dream.

So he grabbed her wrist and bit her lip in the most brutal gesture.

……

Chen Ling closed his eyes, his breathing was a little rough.

A part of the crossbow fell on the desk, making a crisp sound.

Chen Ling opened his eyes slowly, and picked up the small part with his slender fingertips. He held it up to his eyes, and his chaotic breathing gradually calmed down.

In the study room, Luo Ziqiu was holding a candle, looking carefully at every part of the documents on the bookshelf.

He has a natural memory for things that fall on the paper, and these things have passed through his hands, so it doesn't take much effort to check them with his eyes.

Each document is placed in a separate category. He starts with the most important documents related to the gray cavalry. Over the years, the gray cavalry has done many things for Chen Lingchen that cannot be recorded in the history books. It is also the most important document in this study. matter of existence.

The result is not unexpected, it is not missing.

Luo Ziqiu breathed a sigh of relief, and secretly laughed in his heart:
Chen Lingchen had been in desperation for a long time, and the driftwood he finally caught was suspicious of the queen. Why did he become suspicious?

Although the queen does seem to have many secrets...

But to say that she is Ning Bai would be too shocking, shouldn't it?

Even so, he did not dare to slack off.

I closed my eyes for a while, cleared my head, and started to check the new area again.

The tip of the candle illuminated more places, as he expected, and there were no unexpected traces. If someone really turned it over, that person must also be a good at concealing it. After all, there is not much dust on these documents. .

until--

He found a trace of dust being wiped in front of another cabinet.

Luo Ziqiu stood in front of the cabinet, startled, and looked intently.

The document over there is... the old case of Kuiyuying?

……

Half an hour later, Luo Ziqiu slowly walked to Chen Lingchen's side.

He was shocked in his heart, hesitated again and again before saying: "Your Majesty, there is indeed a booklet missing."

At that time, Chen Ling was lowering his head, concentrating on dismantling the crossbow.

He was dismantling it to a critical juncture, his thick eyelashes were quietly drooping, and his thin fingertips controlled a small needle, slowly piercing into the most delicate core part of the crossbow.

The next moment, a small part fell down.

Make a crisp sound.

Chen Ling blinked heavily, and said in a low voice, "Say."

Luo Ziqiu didn't know how to judge for a while, so he could only talk about the result first: "There is a document book of Kuiyu camp missing."

Chen Ling took a deep breath, and the fingers holding the needle were extremely stiff.

The Kuiyu camp has been disbanded since the year when the late emperor passed away. Who else in this world would be interested in the Kuiyu camp?
Luo Ziqiu said: "But it seems that this is not enough proof."

Those documents are not checked every day, and it is impossible to confirm that it is the one that is missing today; even if it is missing today, it cannot be proved that it is related to the empress; Thousands of miles away.

But is there really such a coincidence in this world?
Luo Ziqiu's heart was also shaken.

He said softly: "This subordinate will suspend the letter tonight, and order those who go to the northwest to report back immediately no matter what they find."

Chen Ling was noncommittal, bowed his head and remained silent.

He didn't seem to want to check again.

He just lowered his eyes and stared at the crossbow parts scattered on the table.

Although this crossbow is small in size, its power is astonishing, and it can even be filled with poison.And the component that assists it to complete these things is an extremely hard black iron in its inner core.

Black iron is very hard to come by. This piece of black iron is only the size of the fingernail of a little finger. It is not a necessity for the crossbow.

Luo Ziqiu's eyes also fell on the crossbow.

This crossbow was given to Qiu Yu by the empress, but he is already in the imperial hospital and has not yet entered any establishments. He can only be regarded as a patient, so naturally he cannot carry this kind of weapon.

So he asked Qiu Yu to come, nominally to check in temporarily, and by the way, to see what kind of weapon the queen gave him.

I never thought...it was demolished.

I don't know if I can pretend to go back...

"I have long heard that the Marquis of Dingbei is proficient in machine guns. Today, I saw that he is indeed ingenious and has a lot of hard work."

"The queen gave it to Qiu Yu because she really had a heart."

Luo Ziqiu's eyes were tactful, and he reminded him in a roundabout way that the thing was a gift from the queen, and if he couldn't put it together, it would be embarrassing.

Chen Lingchen turned a deaf ear to it.

His face had regained his composure, and he only lowered his eyes when he heard the words "The Empress gave Qiu Yu", and his breathing became longer and longer.

Then, in front of Luo Ziqiu, he stretched out his slender fingers, pinched the piece of black iron in the center of the crossbow, and threw it into the incense burner on the table with a blank expression.

Luo Ziqiu: ……………

There was a dead silence in the study.

Luo Ziqiu raised his numb face: "This subordinate will leave first."

As he said that, he walked towards the door again, but before he reached the door, he was stopped again.

"Ziqiu."

"Yes."

Luo Ziqiu turned his head and saluted.

Chen Lingshen didn't make another sound.

The light from the candle made the expression on his face dark and inexplicable.

Luo Ziqiu waited quietly on the spot.

I don't know how long it took before the cold voice sounded:

"Recall Qin Jianyue."

……

Wangshu palace.

Fu Bai finally completed today's task.

The father-in-law who came to pick up Fubai's eyes widened when he saw its appearance.

It’s only been two hours since I’ve seen him. He was alive and kicking and gnawing on the cage, but now he’s huddled up in fright, shivering in a corner, and there’s still a slight neighing sound from his throat. If you look carefully, it doesn’t even have ears. Bloody.

The father-in-law's face also turned pale: "Your Majesty... Fubai...how is this..."

Yan Yuan said innocently, "I didn't do anything."

She really did nothing.

Of course, he didn't follow Chen Lingshen's stupid suggestion and recite his homework to the stupid rabbit.

She just got sleepy while doing her homework. She saw the vegetables and jerky on the table, so she really tried to feed it. Who knew that it not only refused to die, but was still running around in the cage.

So she reached into the cage and touched its neck.

Really just touch it.

That's it.

Yan Yuan swallowed and sighed: "This rabbit doesn't seem to like Ben Gong very much, maybe Ben Gong looks too fierce."

She was downcast, with an indescribably depressed tone.

The father-in-law hurriedly comforted him: "Hey, everyone in the palace knows that the empress is the most gentle, and Fubai must like the empress."

He didn't dare to put his hand into the cage rashly, he just looked around the cage and said: "The temperature has dropped tonight, maybe it was windy and cold on the road when I brought the cage, so I'll take it there. See Doctor Luo for a look."

Luo Ziqiu?

Yan Yuan blinked: "Isn't Imperial Physician Luo an imperial physician?"

Gonggong said: "Your Majesty doesn't know something, this floating white is the Holy Majesty's favorite pet, so I go to Doctor Luo for every ailment, big or small."

Yan Yuan said: "You can go late at night, doctor Luo may have already fallen asleep, right?"

Gong Gong said: "It's okay, it's okay, as long as His Majesty is still in the Imperial Hospital, Doctor Luo will hold a candle to his knees and won't sleep."

Yan Yuan said: "Oh~"

Yan Yuan has realized it.

A family of three is really harmonious.
