Shen Yueji came back to her senses at the nonchalant mention of guifei. She unconsciously opened her mouth: "When His Majesty stayed over at the younger sisters' palace, did he always read memorials like this until dawn?"
The man said with a smile, "What is Imperial Concubine hinting to me?"
"No … nothing."
Shen Yueji put down the curtain, completely blocking the gentle sight of the man outside.
"Your Majesty has to deal with official business in the day. It's better to rest more at night. If it goes on like this, I'm afraid that your body will not be able to bear it."
It was night.
After Shen Yueji said this to the man, she didn't get a response from the man.
She was lying on the bed alone. She was on guard at the beginning, but sleepiness hit her at the end. Her eyelids kept moving up and down, and she finally fell into a deep sleep.
The sound of a woman's rhythmic breathing could be heard clearly from the curtain.
Feng Jiuqing looked away from the memorials in his hand and fell on the hazy curtain.
Thousands of things flashed through his dark eyes in an instant, fast and accurate.
He looked at the petite figure in the curtain for a while, and his eyes flickered slightly.
He fell on the memorials again.
...
"Your Majesty! Bad news! Your Majesty, bad news! Something big happened! "
She didn't know how long she had slept, but there was a sudden noise in her ears. Probably because the emperor considered that she was asleep, the sound gradually quieted down, but it still woke Shen Yueji up.
She opened her eyes in confusion, stretched out her little hand to the curtain, and revealed a small head.
The night was still dark. Obviously, she hadn't slept for a long time.
"Your Majesty, what happened?"
Shen Yueji didn't take off her clothes. She tidied up the wrinkles, got down from the bed, and walked to Feng Jiuqing.
The little eunuch kneeling on the ground shivered, and his young face was extremely pale.
His voice was thick with trembling, and the corners of his eyes were moist.
He didn't dare to speak.
Feng Jiuqing took a cloak and put it on her. He held her hand and sat down on the round chair.
He looked faintly at the servant who broke into the inner hall.
It was full of majesty.
Gao Dezhong saw such a scene when he came in.
He was so frightened that he immediately knelt on the ground. "Your Majesty, it's this servant's negligence. This servant didn't expect this little eunuch to be so daring as to trespass into Phoenix Perch Palace. This servant will drag him away right now!"
"Your Majesty, please forgive me. Your Majesty, please spare my life. This servant is Little Xi of Diao Yang Palace. Something big happened in Diao Yang Palace, so this servant … this servant didn't dare to stop and rushed all the way here. This servant didn't see the eunuch who was on night watch outside the palace, so … so I barged in … please …" "What did you say?"
The three words' Diao Yang Palace 'caused the displeasure on Feng Jiuqing's face to dissipate. He wasn't in the mood to listen to the rest of the conversation and directly asked, "What happened to Diao Yang Palace?"
Xiao Xi forcefully swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said, "Corpses … The corpses of those palace maids who had disappeared previously … all appeared in Diaoyang Palace … They … they bit anyone they saw … and even sucked their blood …"
Feng Jiuqing's elegant face was like a gust of cold wind as he narrowed his eyes at him, "Since when did a palace maid go missing in Diao Yang Palace? Why didn't you report this to me? "
Xiao Xi was so frightened that his body was trembling. He kept bowing his head in anxiety, "It … It was Eunuch Li. Eunuch Li said that Your Majesty is busy with official matters, so there's no need to alarm Your Majesty about the disappearance of the palace maids in Diao Yang Palace. It's just a small matter … Perhaps they offended one of the concubines and were punished …"
"Bang!"
A dull sound came from the table.
