The next day, at the hour of the hour.

It was already three poles high in the sun, and the Changle Palace was brightly lit everywhere. The candles were removed by the palace people early on, but the dragon bed was dark, and the bed curtain embroidered with two dragons grabbing pearls was hanging down. There were fist-sized, round and translucent pearls hanging from each corner. The bed was tightly wrapped, and the bed curtains were all made of Sichuan brocade, which was impermeable to light. Even though the sky was bright, it was still like night inside the tent.

It has long been commonplace for the little emperor to stay in bed and people in Changle Palace. It has been like this almost every day for two months. Waking up early is the rarest thing in the world.

Besides, he has a bad temper and can't listen to persuasion. Naturally, no palace official dared to risk the Sacred Heart's displeasure to wake the emperor up.

Qing Ai stood nervously by the bed, raised her hand several times to the bed and put it down again.

Today is different from the past, that gentleman has such outstanding demeanor, but he doesn't appear to be domineering at all, looking all over the court, Xie Mingyue is the only one.

It's nothing more than the little emperor's temper with the gentlemen on weekdays. How can Xie Mingyue be someone who can offend easily?

Qing Ai hesitated again and again, and finally said cautiously: "Your Majesty, it's already a moment."

Li Chengqi didn't like the palace guards when sleeping, he didn't get up at the moment, most of the palace people were in the courtyard, only a few close attendants followed, waiting in the palace for the little emperor to wake up and order.

He buried his head deep in the quilt, and said vaguely: "I know."

Li Chengqi never slept late and woke up very early, today she opened her eyes before the cock crowed, wanted to call someone, but stopped after thinking about it, and lay back on the bed again.

His voice was not sleepy at all, "Qing Mi, I have nothing to do, food and clothing, what are you doing calling Gu so early?" These words seemed to be complaining, but also seemed to be a joke, I wonder if Qing Mi was thinking too much, but He felt that there was a lot of meaning in it, as if he was secretly expressing his dissatisfaction with Xie Mingyue's control of power.

Qing Ai was startled, and said bravely, "Your Majesty, you still have to go to the Imperial Study to attend lectures today."

Li Chengqi raised her head, reached out and pressed her swollen forehead, "I don't want to go today."

Qing Ai was anxious in her heart, but she had no reason to persuade Li Chengqi, let alone her identity to persuade Li Chengqi, and she was afraid of directly telling who this gentleman was, which would even cause the little emperor to rebel, and was in a dilemma for a while.

"You find someone to pass on to Mr. Gu..." Li Chengqi said casually: "Just say that Gu is not feeling well today, and I really can't move, but please rest assured, sir, Gu can read all the books that should be read, and I won't waste a day of my studies .”

Qing Ai could only say: "Yes."

The footsteps faded away.

Li Chengqi was lying on her back, half of the quilt was draped over her lower abdomen.

As soon as she opened her eyes, Li Chengqi couldn't help reaching out to touch the memorial on the bed table, and only found a pair of chopsticks that she had forgotten to clean up.

He picked it up and flashed it in front of his eyes.

The shiny silver chopsticks are inlaid with ivory at the end, and the ivory has not yet turned yellow due to a short period of time.

Li Chengqi lost her spirits and threw the chopsticks back on the table.

There was still a script book sent by the young master Xie Che under the pillow. Li Chengqi felt that reading in the tent was hurting his eyes, so he didn't open it when he touched it, and lay upright, very boring and uninterested.

Seeing that Qing Mi led the order to go out, Xiao Xiao knew that the little emperor had woken up, walked to the bed and asked softly: "Your Majesty, do you want to wash up?"

"No need." The tent replied.

Although there were footsteps outside from time to time, there was no rush at all. Li Chengqi was lying on the bed bored, playing with her hair just like the female official that day. He woke up for more than an hour without breakfast, and his stomach was already a little sour. It hurts, but I don't want to eat without washing.

Xiao Xiao's voice sounded from outside the tent, somewhat hesitant, "Your Majesty, there is... an imperial doctor is here to diagnose your pulse." She glanced at this handsome man with gentle and soft eyes without any trace. Official clothes, without a medicine box, but asked about the emperor's physical condition, entering and exiting the inner palace as freely as entering and exiting his own house.

Li Chengqi raised her eyebrows, the corners of her lips curled up slightly, and she didn't know whether it was a wry smile or a sneer. In the end, like a child who lost his temper, he sent his wrist out of the tent and muttered: "Who is going to tell the Queen Mother again?" ?”

A hand rustled out from under the tent.

This hand is as delicate and white as cream, and has never experienced the pain of frost and snow. There is still a light powder on the fingertips, and the nails are round and neatly trimmed, revealing some pearl-like luster.

The wrist is thin and white, and the blood vessels are particularly green, and the blue and white are handed over, so fragile that it is almost pitiful.

The child has not yet grown up, it seems that it is very easy to wrap his wrists and imprison him.

Li Chengqi lay on the bed, let the people outside to check her pulse, deliberately lowered her voice, and asked weakly; "How is Gu's health? No matter whether there is any obstacle or not, there is no need to tell the Queen Mother and uncle. My mother has already worried about the loneliness, and I can't bear it." Let the Empress Dowager and Uncle worry about trivial matters."

Fingers slid across his wrist lightly.

The cold touch made Li Chengqi tremble. It didn't look like someone had touched his skin, but rather like a snake swimming close to his body. The subtle temperature made his scalp numb, so cold that he almost retracted his hand.

He was terribly afraid of the cold, and before he retracted his wrist, he was held by that man.

It was just a touch at first, but it became more and more tightly wrapped around the entire wrist, slowly tightening like a snake.

The gentleman has slender fingers, and he easily grasped the young emperor's wrist in his hands without much force.

But it was very tricky and weird, and he couldn't break free for a moment, his knuckle fingers were around his wrists, his flesh and bones were tightly attached, it was so strange that Xiao Xiao who was standing beside him blushed.

Li Chengqi didn't drag her back for a while, "Presumptuous!" He blurted out, not because the latter was impolite, but the intolerance of resistance in his actions made Li Chengqi very uncomfortable.

No resistance, no rejection, and insistence on going her own way made Li Chengqi helpless.

A person who has been an emperor for a long time has always been arrogant and domineering, but now that he is alive again, few people dare to force him to act.

only……

The boy's voice was immature, not lower than that of an adult man, but for no reason it made people feel the threat of the emperor. Xiao Xiao shuddered, only feeling that the little emperor's tyrannical appearance today was more terrifying than when he kicked and beat the palace servants at will.

The other party's movements didn't stop following his scolding, he turned sideways, held Cheng Qi's wrist with one hand, and took his pulse with the other.

"Sir," Xiao Xiao turned pale, and before he could say anything to stop him, the bed curtain was suddenly lifted from the inside.

The little emperor sat expressionless, with anger in his eyes.

It's over.she thought in horror.

The angry look of the little emperor was still vivid in her memory, and she couldn't help trembling.

The gentleman raised his eyes, and the angry little emperor was reflected in his clear eyes. His expression did not change, and he called softly: "Your Majesty."

The wrist was still in his hand.

Although it was expected, the fire in his heart that was already ignited was poured with fuel in an instant.

Xie Qing, it was you.

Sure enough it was you.

Only Xie Mingyue.

"Sir." Out of respect for the teacher, the anger disappeared in an instant, as if it had never appeared in the young man's eyes, but the little emperor's black and white eyes showed a bit of guilt. He tilted his head, as if trying to thrust his head into the open neckline.

The more intense anger disappeared in a flash, replaced by an awkward and flattering smile.

Even if the little emperor was not stingy, he still felt a little bit guilty for being caught by his teacher pretending to be sick, "Why are you here, sir?" He asked embarrassingly.

"Your Majesty is in good health." Xie Mingyue seemed to have seen nothing. His voice was gentle, and he did not mean to blame at all, but it made people with a guilty conscience even more ashamed. "Although it is hot summer, there is less ice. Eat it, it will be bad if you hurt your spleen and stomach."

His tone was so eloquent that his heart calmed down inexplicably when he heard him speak.

He cared about Li Chengqi's body so considerately, but told Li Chengqi a bright reality.

The smile on Li Chengqi's face almost couldn't be maintained.

Xie Mingyue was telling him that Xie Mingyue was very clear about his every move.

Within two years of his death, the inner palace has become a sieve.

Li Chengqi raised her head and looked at Xie Mingyue, and the other party did not back away, and smiled gently at him.

The chill rising from the tailbone made Li Chengqi deeply regret it.

He regretted that when he died, he did not order Xie Mingyue to be buried.
