Xiao Jinyan paused and reached out to touch her forehead.

Shen Chuwei looked at Xiao Jinyan's actions with doubt, and looked up at the hand on his forehead, "Your Highness, what's wrong?"

Xiao Jinyan frowned, "I don't have a fever."

Shen Chuwei: "...I don't have a fever!"

Xiao Jinyan asked gently, "Are you having a nightmare again?"

Shen Chuwei nodded vigorously, "Yes, I dreamed of an earthquake, and many people died."

Xiao Jinyan asked: "What is an earthquake?"

Shen Chuwei was a little surprised, "Your Highness, have you never heard of an earthquake?"

Xiao Jinyan shook his head, "No."

Shen Chuwei was stunned. It was strange. Earthquakes are natural disasters. How could he not have heard of them?

Could it be that in ancient times, earthquakes were not called earthquakes? She thought for a moment and explained, "Yes, earthquakes can cause the land to shake, crack, and cause houses to collapse."

Xiao Jinyan listened to Shen Chuwei's description and suddenly understood what she meant by earthquake.

"You mean the ground subsidence."

Only then did Shen Chuwei realize that earthquakes in ancient times were called land subsidence, which means the same thing.

"It's a sinkhole."

Although Xiao Jinyan had never experienced a land subsidence, there were records in books about the dangers of land subsidence. It was no wonder that Xiaojiu dreamed about it and was so scared.

He comforted her, "Dreams are all fake, don't be afraid."

"I understand." Shen Chuwei asked again: "Your Highness, have you finished reviewing the memorial?"

Xiao Jinyan shook his head, "Not yet."

Shen Chuwei urged, "Then Your Highness, hurry up and review it. Finish it early and rest early. Don't stay up late."

Xiao Jinyan was a little worried, "Are you afraid of being alone?"

Shen Chuwei: "I am not afraid."

Xiao Jinyan: "Don't try to be brave in front of me."

Shen Chuwei had a question mark on her forehead. Was she being stubborn? Xiao Jinyan said, "You go to sleep first. I will leave after you fall asleep."

Shen Chuwei said, "With this time, Your Highness could have finished reviewing a memorial."

Xiao Jinyan didn't care: "I don't care about that little time."

Seeing that he insisted, Shen Chuwei had no choice but to agree. She closed her eyes and went to sleep.

Xiao Jinyan sat at the head of the bed, looking down at her in the dim light. Thinking of how she had just wrapped herself in the thin blanket and ran into the study, how scared must she be to run over like that? Xiao Jinyan sat for a long time until he heard her even breathing and knew she had fallen asleep, then he got up and left the Hehuan Palace.

He still climbed over the wall to return to the bedroom.

Dream Palace

Xueyan waited until three o'clock in the morning, but still did not see Xiao Jinyan. She asked Shuiyao to ask, and the reply she got was that the prince was still busy reviewing memorials.

Knowing that Xiao Jinyan did not go to other palaces, he felt relieved.

Late at night, the East Palace was completely silent.

After reviewing the memorials, Xiao Jinyan went to take a bath, then climbed over the wall to the Hehuan Palace.

At this time, Shen Chuwei was sleeping soundly.

There was only one candle left in the room.

Xiao Jinyan walked slowly to the bedside, looked at the person who was sleeping soundly, undressed quietly, then lifted the quilt, got on the bed, and lay down next to Shen Chuwei.

Wei Chi and Qin Xiao worked overtime all night and finally broke through a wall.

They tried to keep their voices as low as possible for fear of making too much noise and attracting other people's attention.

It’s just inevitable that there will be times when you’re careless in operation and accidentally make a big noise.

The bed suddenly shook and there was a "bang" sound beside his ear. Shen Chuwei, who was sleeping soundly, was so frightened that he opened his eyes suddenly and instinctively wanted to turn over and get out of bed.

Xiao Jinyan was lying next to Shen Chuwei, who turned over and naturally pressed on Xiao Jinyan.

Xiao Jinyan has been surviving in struggles over the years and is quite alert. He woke up instantly when he heard the sound of someone smashing the wall next door.

It was pitch black inside the bed curtains, and you couldn't see your hand in front of you.

Xiao Jinyan was certain that the person on top of him was Shen Chuwei, and she probably hadn't fully woken up yet.

Shen Chuwei didn't turn over at once. She was stunned for a moment, then she heard Xiao Jinyan's voice and became a little more sober.

She raised her head and glanced at the dark bed. After the sound, there was no more.

She lowered her head, but unfortunately she couldn't see Xiao Jinyan's face, "Jinyan, I'm dreaming again."

Xiao Jinyan sat up, held her in his arms, and asked gently, "What did you dream about?"

Shen Chuwei said: "I dreamed that the ground collapsed. It was so real that the bed shook."

Xiao Jinyan paused, "Just now?"

Shen Chu nodded, "Yeah, I woke up with a fright, luckily it wasn't a landslide."

The chance of escaping from a ground collapse is very short. If you don't run out in time, there is a high possibility of death.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Jinyan immediately understood that the reason Shen Chuwei had dreamed about the ground collapsing was actually because Wei Chi and Qin Xiao were smashing the wall.

"It's okay, go to sleep first."

This work is organized and uploaded by Liujiu Book Bar~~

"Yeah." Shen Chuwei yawned and lay down.

Xiao Jinyan also lay down and held Shen Chuwei in his arms with his uninjured hand.

Shen Chuwei snuggled into his arms, closed her eyes and fell asleep in a short while.

At this time, several candles were lit in the corner of the wall connecting the Prince's bedroom and the Hehuan Palace.

Qin Xiao whispered, "Be careful, what if you wake up the master and Shen Liangdi?"

"I didn't mean it." Wei Chi promised, "I'll be more careful this time."

After saying that, the two of them continued to smash the wall carefully.

The next day, Xiao Jinyan came back from court and looked at Qin Xiao and Wei Chi on his left and right.

Qin Xiao and Wei Chi saw from the corner of their eyes that their master stopped in front of them, and thought that their master had something to tell them, so they lowered their heads and waited.

Xiao Jinyan ordered: "Come here, prepare ten bowls of water."

Liu Xi ordered the eunuch to bring ten bowls of water.

Wei Chi and Qin Xiao looked at each other, not knowing what their master was going to do. Xiao Jinyan glanced at the ten bowls of water and continued to order: "You, each of you should take five bowls of water."

Wei Chi and Qin Xiao were confused.

They had no choice but to obey their master's orders.

The two stood side by side with their arms outstretched.

The two young eunuchs placed five bowls of water on the top of Wei Chi and Qin Xiao's heads, shoulders, and backs of their hands.

After everything was placed, the young eunuch retreated.

"Stop spilling." Xiao Jinyan glanced at Wei Chi and Qin Xiao, said a few words, and turned away.

Wei Chi and Qin Xiao were still confused, not knowing what they had done wrong and why they should be punished.

Qin Xiao looked at Liu Xi in confusion, "Eunuch Liu, why is the master punishing us so well?"

Liu Xi said: "I don't know either. Maybe you did something wrong and made His Highness angry?"

Wei Chi and Qin Xiao said in unison, "We didn't make His Highness angry."

"Think about it carefully." Liu Xi said and turned to leave.

Even though Wei Chi and Qin Xiao were martial artists, drinking five bowls of water for two hours was almost life-threatening.

That’s not all.

Xiao Jinyan walked out of the study and looked at Wei Qin and the others. His body had begun to tremble and he could hardly hold on any longer.

"Do you know what I did wrong?"

"Master, was my voice too loud last night and disturbed your rest?"

Wei Chi and Qin Xiao thought about this for two hours, eliminating various possibilities, and finally came up with the idea of ​​the stupid thing they accidentally did last night.
