"Tell me again, what did you say your eldest sister's name was?"
When Chen Yi saw Dongfang Xunyi staring at him, he shrank his neck, his eyelashes trembled, and he swallowed carefully.
Why did this handsome brother suddenly change his expression?
I just told him my elder sister's name truthfully according to the questions he asked.
When he heard his elder sister's name, his expression became strange.
Chen Yi stuck out his tongue and licked his slightly dry lips. "My eldest sister's surname is Li and her given name is Xia."
He said it again.
Dongfang Xunyi's eyes flashed.
Li Xia.
He didn't say anything wrong, and he didn't hear anything wrong.
He clearly remembered that the young empress dowager married by the previous emperor was also named Li Xia.
Could it be a coincidence?
Dongfang Xunyi frowned slightly.
He suddenly remembered that due to the customs of his dynasty, he had never really seen the true face of the young empress dowager.
His only memory of her was her pair of peach blossom eyes that were as clear as autumn water.
certainly.
What impressed him most was the bright red cinnabar teardrop mole at the corner of the empress dowager's eye. It was engraved in his mind the moment he saw it.
Many people have cinnabar moles, and teardrop moles are also common.
But it is rare to see the two combined into one.
The young empress dowager was the widow of the late emperor, and she was a recent widower, so they had only met a few times.
Every time she had a necessary meeting, she had to wear a veil to cover her face.
This point just happened to coincide with the woman he had dreamed of.
Dongfang Xunyi began to have doubts in his heart.
He compared the two men's figures.
If he hadn't compared them, he hadn't noticed it. But after comparing them, Dongfang Xunyi discovered an astonishing secret.
The figure of the little empress dowager and the woman in the dream basically match.
He didn't believe in such weird and supernatural things.
But he couldn't explain this phenomenon.
"General Li, the Protector of the Nation, is he your eldest sister's grandfather?"
Dongfang Xunyi asked bluntly.
He actually had the answer in his mind and was just waiting for Chen Yi to give a confirmation.
Chen Yi blinked his eyes, "How do you know?" As soon as he finished speaking, he quickly raised his little hand and covered his mouth, "You can't say it."
He belatedly realized that his eldest sister's grandfather was missing.
He can't say.
Otherwise, my elder sister will be sad if she hears it.
"Handsome brother, I only told you this here, don't tell anyone else."
When Chen Yi saw that there were only two of them in the room, he breathed a sigh of relief and began to give instructions.
Anyway, there is no one else in the study.
As long as the handsome brother keeps his mouth shut, the big sister won’t know.
Chen Yi looked up, "Handsome brother, the bad guy said you are the emperor. I heard from my father that the emperor is the ruler of a country and the person with the most power. Can you help me find my big sister?"
The palace is too big and I am too small.
With his own strength, it is unknown when he will be able to find his elder sister.
Since the handsome brother is the emperor, he must be very powerful.
Asking him for help would be more efficient than relying on himself.
"You know a lot." Dongfang Xunyi did not agree, but did not refuse either.
There is no rush to bring them to meet each other.
He now only wanted to verify one thing, the relationship between the woman in his dream and the young empress dowager.
"Just stay in the palace and I will help you keep an eye out for your elder sister."
Chen Yi grinned happily: "Thank you, handsome brother."
With someone's help, he would definitely be able to find his big sister soon.
In the past few days, he witnessed the hard work of the palace maids.
He wanted to take his elder sister back home.
He left many rare little gadgets at home, just to entertain his elder sister.

"Host, are you listening?" The system told Li Xia the truth of what it had tracked.
It saw that she remained silent after listening to him.
The system doesn't know whether its host has listened or not.
Li Xia nodded, "I heard you said that the missing Chen Yi accidentally walked into the imperial study of Dongfang Xunyi."
She had seen that little boy in the original owner's memory. He was a very good kid.
Chen and Chen Dexuan are two people who can be said to have produced good bamboo shoots from bad bamboo.
Chen Yi really liked the original owner's elder sister.
When Li Xia heard that he was missing, she was still a little worried about his safety.
He looks quite cute and he's a boy, so he might be targeted by a matchmaker, which would be terrible.
The better ones were sold to childless families as sons.
If the matchmaker has evil intentions, Chen Yi will be sold to a brothel madam and trained as a prostitute.
Then his life would be ruined.
Knowing that Chen Yi was in the palace, Li Xia felt relieved for him.
Li Xia wanted to deal with Chen Dexuan and Chen.
I am not the same kind of person as them, so I know clearly that the child is innocent.
From the very beginning, she didn't consider Chen Yi to be among them.
Li Xia believed it.
If it were the original owner, she would not deal with a child who had no ability to fight back.
What's more, Chen Yi has always treated her sincerely.
Those calls of "Big Sister" came from the bottom of his heart.
"My host, that's not the point. The point is that your mask can no longer be saved."
The system is glad that it has no hair, otherwise it would have become bald.
"System, I know what you mean. I understand." Li Xia moved her lips and said, "If the mask can't be kept, then it can't be kept. There will always be a chance to break this layer of window paper. We have been together in dreams for ten times, and the time is almost right."
The reason why she didn't say anything just now was that she had her own considerations.
The necessary groundwork has been almost done.
Her time is limited, and she can't keep wasting it in the hero's dream.
They will eventually have to return to the real little world.
This is the most important thing.
"Host, do you want to..."
"Yes, that's right. You don't need to prepare a mask for me next time I enter a dream. Just wear a veil."
After hearing what Li Xia was planning, the system basically knew what she was going to do. It paused halfway through her words, waiting for her to continue.
Li Xia nodded in response.
In the next dream, she no longer appeared from behind with a mask, but wearing a veil. As long as Dongfang Xunyi was not blind, he could recognize her from her eyes and eyebrows.
The next evening.
Li Xia had dinner early, and she asked Yuzhu, who was beside her, to prepare hot water for her bath.
The hour of Xu.
After taking a bath, she lay on the bed and waited to fall asleep.
at the same time.
Dongfang Xunyi had hardly slept the whole night before, and he was anxious to fall asleep, so he lay down on the dragon couch early and waited for sleep.
Thanks to him, Chen Yi no longer has to go back to the imperial kitchen and hide in that small corner.
Now he just had to wait quietly.
The system used special calming incense on the two of them. In less than half a minute, Li Xia and Dongfang Xunyi fell into a deep sleep.
It begins to manipulate the dream process.
A ball of brilliant white light condensed, and Li Xia's soul entered the dream of Dongfang Xunyi.
