Sure enough, Liu Lieyu's name still held sway in Guixu.
I sat down happily in the chair, tidied up the room a little, and waited for Fei Yan to arrive.
Wait, what should I say to Fei Yan to get her to help me? I stroked my chin, pondering. Fei Yan probably wishes I were dead.
I'm really afraid that if I anger Fei Yan, she might just hit me with her staff.
I estimated that I had waited for about half an hour, but Fei Yan still hadn't arrived.
Why is it so slow?
I knocked on the door and called out loudly, "Why hasn't Fei Yan arrived yet?"
"Your Majesty, Miss Zifang went to invite her, but she hasn't returned yet." This time, the voice that replied to me was a rough male voice.
Still not back? I sighed and sat back down. This is really a headache.
Another half hour passed, and Fei Yan still hadn't arrived.
I finally understood; Fei Yan probably wouldn't be coming.
Zi Teng said she'd go and invite them, but I reckon it'll take several hours, and when she gets back she'll just make up some excuse. What can I do then? Even if I tell Liu Lieyu about it, he'll at most give me a few words of reprimand. He won't punish them for it.
Sigh, I'm really all alone here, it's almost impossible to see anyone.
I don't know how much time had passed when there was a knock on my door. I was sitting in my chair and didn't even move. I knew it must be Zifang coming back.
"Your Majesty, I have searched everywhere for my aunt, but I have not been able to find her anywhere. Perhaps she has gone out. When my aunt returns, I will definitely ask her to come and see you." Zi Teng's words were sincere and earnest.
I sneered. Sure enough.
"Okay," I replied indifferently.
I lay back down on the bed, rubbing the tip of my index finger and looking out the window.
Hoping for someone else to save me is unrealistic; I can only gamble on myself. I lowered my eyes and stared at my fingertips, murmuring, "The Azure Silk Curse, it all depends on you."
I must first obtain the right to move freely, otherwise, being locked in the room all day, I can't do anything, let alone save myself and You, and oh right, Feng Su.
For several days in a row, Liu Lieyu did not come to see me, which made me a little anxious. When I didn't want to see him, Liu Lieyu would always appear in front of me, but when I wanted to see him, he simply disappeared.
I ate the fresh fruit that had just been served while grumbling angrily.
The guards at the gate were like wooden figures, not speaking to me. I had no idea what was happening in the outside world. I suspected that if I stayed locked up like this, I might lose my ability to speak.
Yesterday I wanted a hot pot, and when I told the person at the door, I actually started to stutter.
As I recalled yesterday's painful experience, my hands were still busy, so I scooped out a big piece of watermelon and put it in my mouth. Then there was a knock on my door; it was the sound of the door opening.
Who is it this time? I didn't ask for any more food. Holding the watermelon, I stared at the door, secretly wondering whether the person coming in would be a boy or a girl.
The door opened, and there stood Liu Lieyu!
When I saw it was Liu Lieyu, I quickly put down the half-eaten watermelon I was holding, ran my fingers through my hair, fixed my bangs, and straightened my clothes. How could Liu Lieyu just show up like that? He didn't even give me a chance to tidy myself up. Looking like this, how am I supposed to use my charm to get him to let me move around freely...? I guess it's pointless to say anything now.
"Liu Lieyu, what brings you here?" I nervously tugged at the hem of my shirt.
"What? Can't I come?" Liu Lieyu seemed to be in a good mood today, glancing at the half-eaten watermelon on the table.
