Stand-in beauty favors the Sixth Palace

Chu Qing squinted at Chu Tingyue, not sure what he meant.Their eyes met, and Chu Qingyue looked at him, his body and limbs became stiffer.

Lingyin and Liuying extinguished the candles, leaving only two lights, and the small world enclosed by the curtain suddenly became dark.

Chu Qing could only vaguely distinguish Chu Tingyue's facial features, but couldn't see his expression clearly.Chu Qing felt guilty in his heart, and was on guard against Chu Tingyue.

The waiter retreated, and when the door closed, there was a soft sound, which seemed very abrupt in the silent night.

Yu Chuqing said, it was like a thunderbolt exploding in his ears, he suddenly pulled away from all kinds of guesses, stiffened his neck and looked away, watching the carved eyelashes trembling on the top of the bed, and then suddenly closed his eyes.

"Your Majesty, I'm asleep."

Chu Qing said quickly, even his breathing became longer, as if he was really asleep.

Chu Tingyue: "..."

Chu Tingyue turned his head, rolled over and fell asleep with his back to Chu Qing.

Chu Qing was always on guard, and when he heard the sound of Jin being rubbed by his clothes, his heart rose in his throat.After a while, the sound stopped, Chu Qing quietly opened one eye, and glanced at it from the corner of his eye, only to see the back of a dark head.

Chu Tingyue finally fell asleep.

Chu Qing breathed a sigh of relief, and by turning over, moved his position inward again, against the wall.

Facing the wall, Chu Qing let out a breath, stretched out his palm and put it against it, touching the cold wall with his fingertips, his complicated thoughts calmed down.

Chu Qing rested for most of the afternoon, but he was still sleepy at this time, and couldn't fall asleep, not to mention there was a strange breath beside him, even if Chu Qing felt sleepy, he had to fight hard not to fall asleep.

The breathing of the person beside him became long, unlike what he pretended, Chu Qing was completely relieved and closed his eyes to rest his mind.

Looks like I won't be able to sleep tonight.Chu Qing thought, but fell asleep unknowingly.

Chu Qing didn't sleep well, and was trapped by the nightmare again.

Scarlet flames swept across the magnificent palace, and the red curtains in the palace suddenly ignited raging flames, sweeping across the upper beams, and soon the flames engulfed the magnificent palace.

Chu Qing stood in the hall, unable to move, unable to make a sound with his mouth, and could not even breathe.

His lungs seemed to be pressed by a heavy stone, and seemed to be wrapped in billowing smoke, leaving no room for him to breathe.

The scorching air waves rushed over her body and hit her face. The scorching temperature caused the skin on Chu Qing's face to blister instantly, and her clothes were also burned.

Severe pain spread from the face to the whole body, every muscle and vein of Chu Qing screamed for pain.He trembled from the pain, and his imprisoned and immobile body seemed to be bent.

The fire is getting bigger and bigger, the tongue of fire licks, burns on the hem of Chu Qing's clothes, and climbs up——

"Don't...no...don't come here..."

Beads of sweat slipped from the corners of Chu Qing's forehead to his temples, his face was pale, and he muttered words on his faded lips. He clenched the brocade quilt tightly, fearful and uneasy.

Chu Tingyue woke up at some point, dressed neatly, sitting by the bed and looking down at him with thoughtful eyes.

Tongues of fire swept across his body, and Chu Qing screamed.

"what--!"

Chu Qing opened his eyes suddenly, watching the dark square surrounded by the bed curtain panting, his chest rising and falling rapidly.

"Have a nightmare?"

Chu Tingyue's indifferent voice seemed to be cool, which brought Chu Qing back to his senses from the scorching nightmare.

Chu Qing turned his head slightly, with the horror in his eyes remaining in his eyes, and looked at Chu Tingyue dumbly, "Your Majesty..."

"What kind of nightmare are you so afraid of?" Now is the perfect time to talk, Chu Tingyue's voice softened a little, "It's just a dream, what are you afraid of? I also had nightmares a few years ago, and I fell into it every time I fell asleep. In the end, I didn’t even want to go to sleep. Later, someone told me that often nightmares are caused by a knot in my heart, and it will be fine if I let go of it.”

Chu Qing blinked, "Really?"

"Of course it's true, I also came out like this." Chu Tingyue said slowly.

Chu Qing looked sad, "... Those who can't get out, can't get out..."

"How do you know you won't get out if you don't say it?" Chu Tingyue asked, guiding Chu Qing to speak, telling him intuitively that he could get many things beyond his expectations this time.

"me……"

"Master! Are you having nightmares again?" Lingyin heard his cry just now, put on his clothes and stood outside the door, and asked loudly in worry.

Chu Qing paused, looked outside the door, then looked at Chu Tingyue's complexion, his voice became a little hoarse, and he raised his volume and said, "It's nothing, you just step back."

Chu Tingyue's complexion was not very good, it would be bad if she was sent off.

Lingyin was probably struggling, estimating whether he was all right as he said, and after a while he said: "Yes, master."

Chu Tingyue's face was gloomy, and Liu Ying reported that Chu Qing might have something unusual in the night, but because Rongyin and Lingyin were there, she didn't have the opportunity to serve her personally, so she couldn't observe more.

In order to investigate the anomaly, Chu Tingyue and Chu Qing slept on the same bed, and the sacrifice was not insignificant, even though he and Chu Qing were separated by the Chu River-Han border, even though he got out of bed after Chu Qing fell asleep.

He personally stared at it for nearly a whole night, seeing that his hard work would be rewarded, but was ruined by a little maid.

"I was frightened during the day. I dreamed that a group of dogs were chasing me. I picked up stones to frighten them. They were not afraid at all. Instead, they all rushed forward, frightening me...that disturbed the emperor in my dream. .”

Chu Qing came as soon as he opened his mouth, with mixed truths and falsehoods, but he just said that the tongue of fire was a dog.

What Chu Tingyue wanted to hear was not this, what he wanted to hear was the true words that Chu Qing said just now when he was weak and dazed, not the lies he mouthed after putting on his armor.

"Oh? If that's the case..." Chu Tingyue ordered, "Zhou Porridge, light the Ningshen incense."

Zhou Porridge should go down to light incense, Chu Tingyue looked at Chu Qing, "It's still early, servant king, let's continue to rest."

Chu Qing nodded, half propped up his body and looked at Chu Tingyue, scanning his ironed clothes without a trace of wrinkle, "Your Majesty, you got up so early...don't you want to rest?"

"Don't rest." Chu Tingyue said coldly, wearing stars and wearing moons, he left Qingyan Palace.

"Your Majesty, it's still early, there is still an hour before the morning court starts, Your Majesty..." Zhou Porridge whispered, the Emperor never got up so early on weekdays.

Chu Tingyue turned his head and glanced at Zhou Congee, interrupting him, "Don't meddle in your own business."

"Yes, yes, Your Majesty." Zhou Porridge lowered his head and swallowed, because he was talking too much.

Chu Tingyue strode back to Qinghuai Hall, the more he thought about it, the more he felt something strange, he tapped the knuckles of his index finger on the desk three times, and a black shadow appeared out of thin air.

"My lord, please give me your instructions."

Chu Tingyue said: "Go and find out the two maids next to Shijun, and at the same time... people are also watching closely."

"Yes."

"By the way, send a message to Liuying. If there is any news, I will report it when I understand it. If today's incident happens again... deal with it according to the rules of the shadow guard." Wei, "Go down."

"Yes."

When Chu Tingyue left, he asked Chu Qing to continue to rest, but he was not polite, watching Chu Tingyue leave the room, and immediately lay down on the bed.

Fortunately, let Lingyin leave first, otherwise...

Chu Qing sighed, the tone of the bell was steady, and it was more troublesome to be rash than Rongyin.

But... Chu Tingyue... Chu Qing pondered, and reached out to touch the place where Chu Tingyue had been lying. It was cold and there was no warmth left.I don't know how long it has been since Chu Tingyue got up, but I guess the time is not short.

Chu Qing withdrew his hand, wrapped the brocade quilt tightly, didn't intend to continue thinking, and lay down to sleep.

"Master, the emperor is gone?" Lingyin waited for Chu Tingyue to leave, expecting that he would not come back again, so he dared to enter the side hall lightly, "He didn't like you, did he?"

"No." Chu Qing closed his eyes and said weakly.

He didn't want to have anything to do with Chu Tingyue, and Chu Tingyue might refuse to have anything to do with him even more than he did.

It was only then that Lingyin breathed a sigh of relief, but after being happy for a while, she couldn't help worrying.The emperor now only has the master as a servant, no matter what, it is the only grace. In the future, the master will have a good life when he invites new people into the palace.

Lingyin became more scruples, and did not dare to speak to Chu Qing one by one, for fear that he would be annoyed.

Chu Qing's breathing became steady, and Lingyin tucked up the quilt for him before going outside to watch, sleepless until dawn.

Chu Qing slept until the sun was up, and the first thing he did when he got out of bed was to go to the bronze mirror to see if there was any forsythia in a hidden place on the table.

He searched around, but didn't see any change in Chu Qing's complexion.

"Master, what are you looking at?" Lingyin held up the clothes and asked casually.

"I didn't see anything, I was just thinking about where to go next."

Chu Qing finished grooming and was served by Lingyin. He finished his breakfast absent-mindedly, feeling uncomfortable in his stomach, "Lingyin, come out for a walk with me."

Chu Qing often had to digest food after eating, and he already had a regular way to walk around, and he walked every day.

Walking slowly on the middle path of the imperial garden, Chu Qing occasionally stopped to look at the blooming flowers.

"Master, let's go back." Lingyin said, the master had already turned around for half an hour and went back to rest.

Chu Qing nodded, and returned the way he came.

The breeze blew by, and the leaves of shrubs and flowers rustled. Chu Qing paused suddenly, "Lingyin, can you hear something?"

Lingyin listened attentively, "There is no sound, master, what did you hear?"

Chu Qing paused and looked back at the thick bushes. Could it be that he heard it wrong?

"Let's go, go back to master."

Chu Qing looked away and left with Lingyin.

But Chu Qing still had a sense of crisis, so he turned around instinctively.Suddenly, a big black snake passed by his side and landed on the ground. If he hadn't turned around, the big snake would have jumped on him.

When Chu Qing thought about it, cold sweat broke out on his back.

The big snake was in an attacking posture, and Chu Qing didn't dare to move, for fear of becoming the snake's target.

However, even if he didn't move, the big snake locked on to him and came straight towards him.

Chu Qing secretly thought it was unlucky, how could there be snakes in this imperial garden, and they still chased him...

Chu Qing let Lingyin hide and leave, while avoiding the sudden attack of the snake with his hands and feet.

"Hiss..."

Chu Qing's hands and feet are sharp, but his body is too weak, and avoidance is not a long-term solution.Chu Qing stepped on the high ground to buy time for himself.

The big snake raised its head and spit out the letter, suddenly flapped the tip of its tail, and attacked Chu Qing.

The height where Chu Qing hides is narrow, and he can't avoid it!
