Chapter 24 I'll just lie down again
It's late at night.
The secret guard camp, which was specially responsible for gathering intelligence for the emperor, dispatched a total of twelve people. They were ordered by Fu Tai to leave the palace and focus on investigating those in the martial arts world who had ulterior motives towards the emperor.
In the garden at the other end of the imperial palace, a woman dressed as a concubine knelt in front of a small Buddhist temple and whispered softly, "Sister, I have finally avenged you. That bastard emperor will soon pay with your life."
This night, people inside and outside the palace are destined to be sleepless.
…
When Helian Yue felt his consciousness return to the cage, his body was still a little stiff and his eyes were yet to open when he heard a familiar mumbling in his ears.
[Doctor Yu said that the patient should get better after taking the antidote. Why is the dog emperor still not awake? ]
This person is calling him a dog emperor again!
Helian Yue couldn't help but frown and wanted to frown.
[Helian Yue, please wake up soon. It's a mess outside. If you wake up, I swear I will never call you a dog emperor again.]
Helian Yue thought to himself, I don’t believe you at all, you clearly scolded me just now!
It turns out that this woman's emotions are all deceptive.
Helian Yue thought so, but he also knew that he couldn't sleep any longer. He was struggling to close his eyes when he heard Si Linglong's voice again.
[Why aren't you awake yet? ... Well, if you can wake up right now, I'll consider accepting your love! How about that?!]
Helian Yue, who was about to close his eyes: ...
Forget it, I'd better lie down for a while.
Si Linglong looked at the person lying on the bed, who was still breathing steadily and motionlessly, and raised her eyebrows slightly.
[How could you not wake up to such an alluring offer? I'm telling you, I won't just accept someone's love. If you miss this opportunity, you'll never get it again.]
Helian Yue closed his eyes, unmoved.
Thank you, I don't need your store.
I want to get out of your village as soon as possible.
Just as he was complaining in his heart, Helian Yue suddenly felt someone touching his face and was stunned.
[Wow, the skin is so tight and dense, it is better maintained than mine.]
Helian Yue was shocked.
This person... actually dared to secretly touch his face while he was unconscious!
Bold! Outrageous!
Si Linglong, unaware that her actions and inner monologue had completely exposed herself, continued to mutter to herself.
[Your face is pretty, too. Tsk, if I hadn’t seen you taking off your clothes yesterday, I would have thought you were a woman in disguise. Isn’t this a common setting in novels…blah blah]
Lying on the bed, Helian Yue: ...
His fists clenched slightly under the quilt.
Helian Yue's chest heaved, he was angry.
This woman,
While he's unconscious!
Not just touching his face!!
And took off his clothes!!!
You dare to question him as not being a man!!
Very good, Si Linglong.
When I wake up, you'll be dead.
And Fu Tai, this idiot, actually allowed a nobleman to act recklessly around him. He should be dragged out and beaten with twenty boards for such dereliction of duty!
Helian Yue was thinking with a snort, when he felt a hand touching his chest restlessly again.
!!!
If he continues to pretend to be asleep, this woman might rebel? !
Helian Yue couldn't pretend any longer, he suddenly opened his eyes and glared at the people around him.
However, Si Linglong did not notice his murderous gaze, and shouted happily, "Eunuch Futai, please come quickly. The emperor's chest has been rising and falling, and it seems that he is about to wake up."
Helian Yue heard Futai's heartbeat approaching quickly along with his footsteps.
[My dear, the emperor is fainting, not dying, so of course his chest is heaving.]
When Helian Yue heard this, the corner of his mouth twitched, and his murderous gaze turned to Fu Tai who was walking to the bed. When Si Linglong lowered her head, she happened to see Helian Yue looking at the two of them with a gloomy look, and she was immediately surprised.
"I told you! Look, the emperor is really awake."
Fu Tai was also surprised. He rushed to the bed with a look of joy. Seeing his own emperor awake, he almost cried, "Your Majesty, you are finally awake! I was so worried about you!"
Helian Yue just looked at him like that, opened his mouth, and said in a hoarse voice, "Futai..."
"Yes! I am here! What does the emperor want to say?" Fu Tai was delighted and hurriedly leaned close to his ear. He heard his own emperor's voice was gloomy, as if he was grinding his teeth.
"Get out... and get twenty strokes of the cane."
Futai:!!!
