After Yin Changling left, Tu Shan Lingxi was unaware of the wonderful news that she was to be "made queen".
She was still asleep, but her sleep was not very peaceful, as if she had encountered something terrible in her dream.
Tu Shan Lingxi frowned, cold sweat beading on her forehead, muttering something. This commotion attracted Su Qi, who was guarding the door.
Su Qi gently knocked on the door, but no one answered. She hesitated for a moment, wondering whether she should go in or not.
But just as she hesitated for a moment, Tu Shan Lingxi's screams and even faint sobs came from inside the shop, a sound that was heartbreaking.
This time, Su Qi didn't hesitate. She had a bad feeling and went straight into the hall.
As soon as she entered, she saw Tu Shan Lingxi still fast asleep inside the curtains, but she kept crying.
Afraid of disturbing Tu Shan Lingxi, Su Qi only dared to secretly lift the curtain, and what she saw was a picture of a beauty shedding tears, which made her feel very sorry for her.
Such a beautiful person was weeping softly, her eyes slightly red, and glistening tears sliding down her cheeks. Who wouldn't feel heartbroken seeing this scene?
Su Qi was extremely anxious. She didn't know what Tu Shan Lingxi was dreaming about, so she tried to call out to the girl softly to wake her up.
...
What did Tu Shan Lingxi dream about?
She was having a nightmare. The dream was shrouded in mist, and she couldn't see anything clearly. Suddenly, there was a light in a certain place.
Tu Shan Lingxi was overjoyed. She quickly ran out and saw the familiar Imperial Preceptor's Mansion.
When the Grand Preceptor emerged from seclusion in the dream, his complexion had improved considerably, and he still possessed an air of otherworldly grace and ethereal beauty.
Wan Qijin wandered around the Imperial Preceptor's residence and found that Tu Shan Lingxi was nowhere to be seen. The little fox was puzzled; she was right behind him, so why couldn't she see him?
For some reason, the scene suddenly shifted, and after a blinding white light, she found that Wan Qijin had found his way into the palace!
The little fox squatted in front of him. When it saw the Grand Preceptor move, it thought he could see it. It wanted to happily run to the Grand Preceptor and throw itself into his arms.
The next moment, the Grand Preceptor used his spiritual power to severely injure Yin Changling, while Yin Changling also thrust his sword directly at the Grand Preceptor—
Both of them coughed up blood, suffering severe injuries!
Tu Shan Lingxi desperately shouted for them to stop, but no one listened to her, as if they couldn't see her at all.
The little fox hopped around them anxiously, desperately calling for them to stop, but they wouldn't hear it.
What should we do?!
The little fox then witnessed the scene she least wanted to see in her life, and her eyes widened in horror.
Wan Qijin gathered all his spiritual power to kill Yin Changling, and at the same moment, Yin Changling also used the Dragon Roar Sword to stab Wan Qijin to death!
The two fell to the ground, their eyes wide open in death!
Tu Shan Lingxi ran towards the two people crying, but their figures gradually became transparent and eventually turned into bubbles, which were blown away by the wind.
"Aaaaaah—don't die, don't disappear—"
...
The little fox finally woke up crying. As she cried, she heard a soft female voice in her ear.
She opened her eyes groggily, her eyes, which had been crying for so long, suddenly seeing light, and she felt a little unaccustomed to it.
After a while, she saw Su Qi leaning over and standing in front of her bed, carefully bending down and softly calling her name.
"Lingxi, Lingxi, Lingxi, wake up!"
"Please stop crying, or your eyes will hurt. Why aren't you awake yet? What should we do?"
Su Qi didn't notice that Tu Shan Lingxi had woken up. She muttered to herself, her voice full of anxiety. Suddenly, the voice stopped.
It turned out that she finally noticed that Tu Shan Lingxi had opened her eyes, and she was overjoyed. She was finally awake, and that was good.
Su Qi carefully wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief and asked softly.
“Miss Lingxi, did you dream of something bad? You cried for a long time, and I couldn’t wake you up no matter how I called you.”
Su Qi's eyes were full of concern; she genuinely cared about Tu Shan Lingxi. After all, who wouldn't like such a beautiful person?
After spending a day together, Su Qi discovered that Miss Lingxi was naturally lively and, although somewhat unconventional, she had no airs towards them, the servants.
After Su Qi's reminder, Tu Shan Lingxi recalled that nightmare again, a dream that seemed to be foreshadowing something.
As Tu Shan Lingxi thought about everything that happened in her dream, her face turned deathly pale. Her heart tightened, and she panicked.
However, she suddenly remembered something, looked around, trying to find Yin Changling's figure. She was terrified, afraid that what happened in her dream was real.
The hall was empty; apart from himself and Su Qi, there was no one else to be seen.
Tu Shan Lingxi panicked. She started asking Su Qi questions urgently, her voice filled with helplessness, which made everyone who heard it feel sorry for her.
"Su Qi, have you seen Yin Changling? Where is he? Why has he disappeared? Take me to him quickly!"
As Tu Shan Lingxi spoke, she grabbed Su Qi's sleeve with her small hand, her eyes filled with hesitation and a hint of panic.
After saying that, she disregarded her disheveled appearance, threw off the covers, and tried to leave.
Su Qi was startled by her anxious appearance, and seeing that she was not dressed, she quickly pressed her down and carefully covered her with the blanket.
She spoke carefully, tucking the blanket around Tu Shan Lingxi and wiping away the tears from her eyes, afraid of upsetting her again.
"Miss Lingxi, His Majesty is attending the morning court session. Don't worry, His Majesty is surrounded by many people who will protect him."
Although Su Qi didn't know what Tu Shan Lingxi dreamed about, she knew from her nervous expression that her dream was definitely related to His Majesty's safety.
Su Qi, a mere palace maid, had no courage to go to the place where His Majesty held the morning court session; she could only offer words of comfort.
"His Majesty is with his court officials and they are discussing state affairs. Miss Lingxi must wait for His Majesty to return and must not go looking for him on her own."
Su Qi said this because she was unaware that Tu Shan Lingxi had already been made queen.
If she had known this, she would have disregarded palace rules and taken Tu Shan Lingxi directly to find Yin Changling.
After all, the position of queen represents the emperor's favoritism, especially for tyrants like Yin Changling, who are absolute in their word and will give the best to anyone they love.
Other court officials would not dare to offend the tyrant, nor would they dare to say anything inappropriate, since they had several heads to lose.
However, Su Qi is unaware of this matter at the moment and can only offer comfort to Tu Shan Lingxi.
Tu Shan Lingxi shook her head violently. She was terrified, afraid that Yin Changling would die, and also afraid that the Grand Preceptor would die. She didn't want to see the two of them suffer mutual destruction.
"No, I must go find him; he's in danger!"
