Chapter 1359 Maybe you are dreaming
She frowned slightly, half of her mind was distracted by the dream, and she could only use a little effort to barely open her eyes.
I saw a tall figure standing before me.
“Hmm…”
Half asleep and half awake, Ran Xiaoyu uttered an uneasy murmur.
Normally, if she saw a figure appear in front of her in the middle of the night, she would wake up immediately and turn over. But this time, it was because she was really tired from driving with the car companion all the way, and she also had to take care of Nan Yan. During the two days that Nan Yan was missing, she had not slept or rest and had not even drunk a sip of water. At this time, she was really exhausted.
Even if I saw it, I didn't have the energy to react, and even felt vaguely that I was in a dream.
In her dream, she saw a tall figure walking into their tent.
Then, he slowly approached Nan Yan's bed.
The man bent down and looked at Nan Yan quietly. After a long time, he reached out his hand, gently brushed away the messy hair tangled around Nan Yan's face, and gently stroked her pale and thin cheek.
That action seemed to be wiping something.
Ran Xiaoyu felt half confused and half uneasy.
She felt like she was in a dream, but even in her dream, she didn't want anyone to get close to the imperial concubine like this, lest the imperial concubine be hurt again.
So, she gritted her teeth and murmured softly, "My Lady..."
“…”
"Your Majesty..."
She struggled between falling asleep comfortably and waking up in agony. Finally, she gritted her teeth, opened her eyes, and sat up in bed.
"Empress!"
"Well?"
Nan Yan, who was sleeping on the bed beside her, was immediately awakened by her and opened her eyes: "What, what happened?"
Ran Xiaoyu was panting, but was surprised to find that there was no tall figure.
There was no third person in the tent except the two of them.
What's going on?
Was I dreaming just now?
She was thinking with some confusion. Nan Yan was still looking at her and asked, "What's wrong, Xiaoyu? Did you have a nightmare just now?"
"I, your servant——"
Ran Xiaoyu hesitated for a moment before saying, "Just now, I seemed to see someone come in and walk to the side of the Madam's bed. I thought it was a bad guy."
"oh?"
Nan Yan raised her eyebrows slightly.
She looked up at the tent hanging at the door, which was swaying slightly. After all, they were camping in the wild, and the wind was quite strong at night.
She was silent for a moment, then said, "Maybe you are dreaming."
“…”
Ran Xiaoyu didn't say anything, just frowned.
Is this really a dream?
But at that moment, the figure she saw was very familiar, as if it was——
She looked up at Nan Yan in confusion, but was stunned again. Nan Yan saw that she was staring at him in a daze and said, "What's wrong?"
"My Lady, you—"
Ran Xiaoyu whispered, "Why are you crying again?"
“……!”
Nan Yan was stunned and subconsciously reached out to wipe her face.
Surprisingly, his face was clammy and cold again.
She froze there.
If her tears before were forced out to hide her emotions and to get away from Zhu Feng, then this time——
What is it then?
She had no idea that she was crying in her dream?
Nan Yan looked at the tears on her fingertips, biting her lower lip without saying a word. Ran Xiaoyu said softly, "My Lady, are you feeling—very uncomfortable?"
Nan Yan took a deep breath and said, "No."
“…”
"I said, I won't cry for others, and of course I won't feel bad either."
“…”
"It's late, go to bed early."
After saying that, she lay down, turned to face the other side, and stopped talking.
Ran Xiaoyu sat on the bed. Although she was covered with a thin quilt, it was a thousand times better than her previous situation where she had to lie on the bed without even a blanket and could only shiver in the night wind. But at this moment, she felt her hands and feet were cold.
There was an indescribable, bone-chilling chill rising from my heart.
When Nan Yan came back this time, something seemed a little different.
Although she also knew that the emperor had hurt the imperial concubine's heart, Nan Yan returned the dagger that he almost never left to him in order to make a break with the past, but now it seems that the emperor does not want to make a break.
On the contrary, it was Nan Yan who made a decision in her heart.
I just don't know what will happen next.
If it really ended, she would rather Nan Yan really "elope" with someone, or leave and never come back. But if she came back, she would still have to suffer in the cold palace in the future when she returned to the imperial palace in Peking, and would still be bullied by Concubine Ning and Concubine Hui.
What will her future be like?
Ran Xiaoyu looked at Nan Yan's thin back lying on her side for a while, then sighed softly and lay down herself.
On the other side, Nan Yan, although motionless, was not asleep.
A pair of empty eyes flickered in the dim light, as if tears were about to overflow, and she closed her eyes.

The night passed like this.
The next morning, probably because she was too tired and in a heavy mood, Ran Xiaoyu slept very soundly. She didn't wake up until noon when her whole body ached from sleep.
When I woke up, I found that the sunlight had penetrated the tent, illuminating the entire room.
Got up late.
She hurriedly got up and carefully woke Nan Yan: "My Lady, it's time to get up."
Nan Yan woke up sleepily, looked at her, then looked at the brightly lit room, and said softly, "Are we up late?"
"It's a little late."
"Why didn't anyone come to call?"
"Let me help you wash up first."
"Um."
The two of them got up immediately. Fortunately, water had been prepared in the tent, so they simply washed up. During this process, they heard that it was very quiet outside, without any sound at all, which they found a little strange.
Normally, no matter what, there are always people walking back and forth, and the sound of busyness.
So after the two of them had tidied themselves, they opened the tent and walked out.
Suddenly, I was stunned.
There had been many huge tents set up in this camp before, but now, they had all been dismantled, leaving only this one; moreover, the palace maids and eunuchs had already packed all the luggage, prepared the horses, and set up the carriages.
Everyone sat outside, waiting quietly.
What's going on?
Nan Yan was confused for a moment. When she looked up, she saw Zhu Feng sitting in the crowd on the other side.
The sun was shining brightly, but his eyes were still gloomy.
When he met her eyes, his gaze flickered, and then he turned his head away. Eunuch Yu, who was standing by, hurriedly leaned over to listen to what he said.
Then, Eunuch Yu said loudly: "The emperor has ordered us to set off!"
“……!”
Upon hearing this, Nan Yan opened her eyes wide in shock.
The people around had been sitting there doing nothing for the whole morning, just waiting for this moment, and they immediately stood up and took action.
