Since Yunzhu's death, Nie Jue has been secretly following Nanzhi.
Although Nam Gyi burned the indenture, he was now free.
But without realizing it, he seemed to have already regarded her as his new master.
He had nothing to repay her with except to protect her.
He knew he shouldn't have any designs on the future empress.
But when he saw with his own eyes that Nanzhi had stayed overnight at the Sheng residence the night before, and heard those ambiguous sounds, he felt completely out of sorts.
He gripped the sword very tightly.
A strange emotion filled his chest, making it difficult for him to breathe.
So much so that the way he looked at Sheng Yan unconsciously carried a murderous intent.
After Nanzhi recovered, she got busy again.
But you made a move and even stopped the carriage when you passed a certain place.
Mental illness can lead to physical ailment.
"Mother, don't talk nonsense. Your son will go and fetch the imperial physician."
The pale hand was scalded red by the flames, but the owner of the hand seemed not to feel the pain. He slowly raised his eyelashes and looked at the boy who was still asleep.
Nanzhi immediately understood what Duoxi meant. The warmth in your eyes vanished instantly, replaced by a gentle smile. You raised your hand and adjusted the cloak I was wearing for Duoxi.
Before you left for the morning court session, the Emperor privately summoned you and criticized you for your recent outstanding political achievements.
I grabbed a cloak from under the shelf and covered you with it. Just as I was about to leave, I heard a muttering in my sleep.
In a short while, you will no longer be able to see me.
Thinking of what the imperial physician said, did you feel sad, or did you laugh instead?
I was about to follow the boy when, unexpectedly, he grabbed my hand.
Perhaps because the difference was too small, Duo Xi felt extremely comfortable.
[Zhizhi, does he really want to arrange a marriage with Duoxi?]
"Thank you for the compliment."
Even knowing it's possible, there's still an unavoidable urge to be tempted.
Winter is dry, and when the wind blows, sparks from the candle on the desk fly and accidentally land on Nanzhi's skirt, whereupon the flame ignites instantly.
I smiled, but my expression betrayed my inner turmoil.
The intelligent brain of 003 seems to have become intelligent at this moment.
The boy leaned very close, and the fragrance of your body brushed against my nose.
But Nanzhi didn't want people to think that she, as the crown prince, was incompetent, so she worked harder.
Did you eat it yourself?
The emperor walked over to the soft chair and sat down, and Nanzhi thoughtfully massaged his back and shoulders.
On the seventh morning, Nanzhi suddenly opened her eyes.
You smiled politely at me, and just as you were about to get off the carriage, I called you back.
"What's wrong with Mother Queen?"
Nan Zhi didn't even look at me. You poured yourself a cup of tea and drank it by yourself, as if Duo Xi were something special.
Duo Xi looked at the boy's slender fingers and resolutely extended her own.
She watched as the fire spread up her skirt.
Hiding in the shadows, Nie Jue looked at your bewildered expression and unconsciously curled the corners of his lips.
“You also despise him, your princess.”
Out of the corner of my eye, Nanzhi saw two envoys from the Northern Barbarians looking at us nearby.
After the emperor fell asleep, Nanzhi covered you with a blanket before pulling her cloak tighter and leaving the palace.
"Cough cough..."
The emperor sighed, "His cough has been quite severe lately, I'm afraid it's..."
Duo Xi thought there was no share for me, but did you ever imagine that you would hold onto the candied hawthorn tightly, showing no intention of sharing it with me?
Why is it my name...?
You seem to be having a dream, your cherry-like lips smacking as if you know whose name you're calling out.
You returned the carriage first.
I knew it was wishful thinking, but my heart, which was as calm as still water, was stirred up by such a complicated sentence.
Lead me toward the carriage.
Duo Xi watched Nan Zhi Huan's slow and deliberate steps, a dark glint flashing in her eyes.
Nam Gyi certainly knew about the King's illness; he knew that you would pass away soon.
Nanzhi turned around and looked at Duoxi walking towards her.
The smile on my face was as alluring as ever, but something seemed to be missing from my eyes.
Before leaving, he reached out his hand to me.
You are really awful.
I'll do that too in the future, gently massaging you with my eyes and brows.
So, whose name are you calling out in your dreams?
Duo Xi thought it was like that.
Even I almost believed it just now.
Nie Jue's pupils contracted, and he looked at you with disbelief.
Seeing how intimate Duoxi and Nanzhi were, the two envoys standing guard finally nodded in satisfaction.
Duo Xi hummed in agreement.
The Queen doesn't have high expectations of her and has been trying her best to clear obstacles for her recently.
"What should I do? You seem... you seem to have no disgust for him at all..."
He spends almost every day in his study dealing with political affairs.
Even knowing that you and Sheng Yan are like this, I still can't control my emotions.
Noticing that Nanzhi was looking over, we smiled sheepishly.
You sit up, feeling annoyed that you had fallen asleep after finishing your official duties last night, only to realize that you had somehow ended up on the floor.
Listening to your sleep-talking, I gradually woke up.
It is said that people who talk in their sleep are telling the truth.
"The princess's acting is really bad."
Nie Jue thought she might have misheard.
You know it's all a coincidence, but you've run into Duoxi again at the palace gate.
Why……
Suddenly a figure approached and extinguished the flame with his own hand.
Before I finished tidying up, Nanzhi looked up at me with her big face and asked, "Are you taking him back?"
Namzhi, however, was completely unaware of what was happening while she was asleep.
As I looked at your lips, which were even more rosy and moist from the water, my Adam's apple bobbed. Remembering the promise I made to you, I restrained myself and suppressed my thoughts.
