I, the Treacherous Minister, Rebel, But How Did the Empress Turn the Tables?

My name is Chu Yi. As the Minister of Personnel of An Country, I harbored a singular ambition: to rebel and seize the Great An Dynasty. To succeed in this usurpation, I formed factions, purged diss...

Chapter 52 I know you are not asleep, and neither am I

After sending Chu Yi away, Xiao Ling began to worry again.

Chu Yi's words made her a little confused. Was the Chu thief's request for her to be careful about whether the Yan army could reach the capital just a casual remark or was it premeditated?

"Yuzhu, bring me some paper."

After hesitating for a while, Xiao Ling gave instructions to Yu Zhu who was hiding far away.

When His Majesty mentioned paper at this time, it was naturally not ordinary paper. Yuzhu understood very well. She responded and went to the side hall next to her, then took out the bright yellow rice paper specially used for writing imperial edicts.

Xiao Ling wrote two edicts.

One was for Shi Qingxue, who was suppressing the rebellion in the south, hoping that Shi Qingxue would handle the affairs of the six kings himself.

After all, the joint rebellion of the six kings was too serious, but Xiao Ling did not want to give in.

She thought that if these princes were so rampant, she might as well take this opportunity to get rid of them all at once to avoid any worries.

The second decree was given to Mu Ci who was on his way back to Beijing.

She felt that Chu Yi must have made some preparations since he dared to speak to her in that tone.

I'm afraid there might be some trouble on the way here, so I need to inform Mu Ci.

After writing, Xiao Ling took the imperial seal and stamped it respectively, and then instructed the eunuch in charge of writing to send it to the cabinet to be stamped with a special seal.

As for the decree sent to Mu Ci, it was delivered to Mu Ci personally by the Tianwei people.

After doing all this, Xiao Ling lay on the dragon throne, and only then did he feel a little more at ease.

"Yuzhu, order dinner to be served."

After giving a casual order, Xiao Ling looked out the window at the setting sun that was about to be swallowed by the palace wall.

The You hour has passed.

The traitor Chu Yi always went to bed early. He would go to the backyard to find her at 11:00 PM, and then go to bed together before 11:00 PM.

This routine is just like keeping in good health.

That was why Xiao Ling had to have dinner earlier now, so as not to be late for the trip to Chu Mansion.

While thinking about her worries, she closed her eyes and took a short nap.

After the meal, Yuzhu escorted His Majesty back to the bedroom.

Then, under her gaze, His Majesty changed out of his dragon robe and returned to the Chu Mansion leaning against the magic mirror.

This incident happened every day recently, and Yuzhu was almost tired of it.

She was just confused.

How did Your Majesty fall in love with the always fierce Lord Chu?

Because he was worried about government affairs, Xiao Ling always went to bed late, but Chu Yi was different.

At this point, she could only lie on the couch in a daze, sleepiness had not yet come to her.

But the Chu thief who was hugging her from behind had already closed his eyes and was not talking to her. He was feeling sleepy.

Xiao Ling really couldn't understand. Was it because she was still young?

Are all elderly people like Chu Zei so sleepy?

But she did know that when Chu Zei came over, it was obvious from his face that he was worried.

She guessed that perhaps the Chu thief was concerned about the things happening in the palace, so he was actually very excited.

I had intended to talk to the Chu thief indirectly about some matters of state, but within two quarters of an hour, the Chu thief became unhappy and it was soon the present time.

Xiao Ling was frowning and thinking about something. After a while, he noticed that Chu Yi's breathing behind him had quickly become steady, and he looked like he was asleep.

There was no one to chat with, and she felt bored, but she didn't want to face Chu Yi, so she simply rested her face on the pillow and closed her eyes.

But Xiao Ling was completely unaware that Chu Yi behind him was not asleep at all.

Chu Yi was just pretending.

He just wanted to use sleep to do things that he couldn't do when he was awake.

ヽ(?ω?′?)

The previous few times, he did it unconsciously, because when he saw that Chen Tang didn't mention it, he had already started pretending to be asleep in the past few days.

It’s all for the sake of enjoying life.

Although it was a bit shameless no matter how you looked at it, Chu Yi didn't care, as the wedding day had arrived anyway.

While pretending to be asleep, his hands were very skillful, and he climbed up directly under the pretext of adjusting his sleeping position.

Then rubbed it carefully.

Xiao Ling, who had originally closed her eyes, felt the breadth of the two palms and suddenly widened her eyes.

What a traitor!

As soon as he fell asleep, he became unruly again!

She felt like crying but had no tears. You should at least wait until I fall asleep before you do that to me.

I can't sleep at all like this, okay?

But there was nothing she could do. Chu Zei was restless after falling asleep and liked to be touched and moved around. She had only just found out about this recently.

At first, she had just woken up early in the morning and discovered the shameless actions of the Chu thief.

But then one time, because the noise was so loud, she woke up.

Then I was too embarrassed to scold the Chu thief, so I could only let him do it. As a result, I was upset for most of the night.

She could only grit her teeth and swallow the injustice and humiliation she received day after night.

At this moment, Xiao Ling sighed imperceptibly and closed his eyes again.

Start pretending to sleep!

I'm afraid I'll have to endure torture again tonight.

Fortunately, she has almost gotten used to it.

At the same time, feeling Tang'er's slightly trembling body, Chu Yi smiled.

He simply hugged her tighter, then found the gap and pinched her.

"Hmm~"

Xiao Ling couldn't help but hum softly, and quickly shut up again.

Damn! Seriously!

The Chu thief deserves to die!

Ahhhh——

I'm so mad!

What did I do wrong to deserve this torture from you?

She didn't dare to wake up or scold, for fear of blushing when facing Chu Yi.

He could only choose to pretend to be asleep, pretending to turn over because of something strange, and tried to push Chu Yi away.
