Since the assassination attempt, Nan Shaotian had been to the Chenxiao Palace the most, almost every day after the morning court session. This was something no one had expected, and at the same time, they were all jealous, wishing they had been the one to take the knife.
During this period, Nan Shaotian was so nice to Bei Yutang that even Bei Yutang, a bystander, could feel that his attitude towards her had changed. The way he looked at her changed from disgust at the beginning, to appreciation, and now to love.
Bei Yutang was almost certain that she already had a place in Nan Shaotian's heart. However, how this place compared to Xia Yuwei was something Bei Yutang was unsure of.
After all, Xia Yuwei is Nan Shaotian’s childhood sweetheart and the beloved one in his heart.
The original owner's wish was to take everything from Xia Yuwei, which meant taking away all of Nan Shaotian's love. So now it wasn't enough to be sure that Nan Shaotian liked her, she also had to make Nan Shaotian completely disgusted with Xia Yuwei.
Hanxuan Hall
Xia Yuwei looked at her belly, which was growing bigger day by day, but her face was not as rosy as when she was pregnant. When she saw Xia He come in, she couldn't wait to ask, "Is the emperor coming?"
Xia He looked at the Empress, hesitant and not daring to speak. Xia Yuwei felt a chill in her heart when she saw this. Did he really not want her anymore and no longer love her?
"Your Majesty, the Emperor has been very busy with government affairs recently. When he is free, he will definitely come to visit you." Xia He told a white lie.
Xia Yuwei smiled bitterly.
Chenxiao Palace
Late at night, a dark figure knelt silently in the hall. Bei Yutang looked at the person below him and said, "You will deliver this letter to Prince Jing."
"Yes." The black shadow left silently.
This group of assassins was left to her by Xiao Yan. Even if he left, he had arranged everything for her.
Bei Yutang gripped the piccolo in his hand even tighter.
Three days later, Bei Yutang tossed and turned in bed, and Nan Shaotian, who was sleeping next to her, was woken up by her.
"Are you feeling unwell?" Nan Shaotian was not annoyed because she disturbed his rest, and asked with concern.
"Your Majesty, I can't sleep." Bei Yutang simply sat up.
Nan Shaotian also sat up, Bei Yutang got off the bed, picked up the windbreaker from the side and put it on.
"Your Majesty, you go to sleep. I'm going to go for a walk outside."
How could Nan Shaotian let her go alone? He put on his coat, took her hand, and the two of them walked out of the bedroom. As they walked, they walked out of Chenxiao Palace.
The moon today is particularly round, and the silvery moonlight covers the entire palace in a layer of soft light.
"The moonlight is so beautiful today." Bei Yutang looked up at the full moon hanging in the sky.
"Yeah. Beautiful."
Before they knew it, they had reached the Imperial Garden. Bei Yutang smiled and said, "I didn't expect the Imperial Garden to be so beautiful under the moonlight."
Nan Shaotian looked at the silent imperial garden. The soft moonlight covered the entire garden with a layer of silver light, which had a hazy beauty, which was very different from what he had seen before.
The two of them were in high spirits, so they simply continued walking inside. When they reached a rockery, Bei Yutang stopped.
"Your Majesty, let's sit here for a while and enjoy the moon in peace."
"good."
Surrounded by flowers and with a rockery behind, it was a secluded place. She leaned her head on his shoulder, looking up at the moonlit sky, and no one spoke.
Just then, a faint sound of footsteps came from behind the rockery.
"Yuwei." Nan Haowen's deep voice rang out in the silent night.
