Chapter 693 Stupid!
Luo Qinghan sighed silently.
He gave up.
Xixi was like his nemesis, always able to accurately hit his soft spot and force him to let down his guard.
But he couldn't do anything to her.
Luo Qinghan said: "I've been having nightmares a lot lately, and I'm afraid of disturbing you."
Xiao Xixi blinked: "What kind of hungry dream? Is it the kind of dream where you're really hungry?"
Luo Qinghan didn't know how to answer for a moment.
He was silent for a moment, then decided to ignore her question and continued talking with a blank expression.
"I dreamed of a lot of bad things, like your coming back was just a dream, the real you had died in a corner, and I knew nothing about it."
Xiao Xixi suddenly realized: "This is what is commonly known as thinking too much."
Luo Qinghan: "Maybe."
The pain of separation between life and death was so deep that he has not been able to completely get rid of it until now.
He always couldn't help but be afraid that all this was fake.
I’m afraid that everything will be gone when I wake up from the dream.
Xiao Xixi: "I think you have been suppressing yourself for too long, you need to release some pressure."
Luo Qinghan: "How to release it?"
Xiao Xixi: "What is something you want to do but have never been able to do?"
Luo Qinghan's gaze swept across her face, then drifted away and said in a calm voice.
"No."
Xiao Xixi thought he was shy and continued to persuade him earnestly.
"It's no use being evasive like this. You have to tell me the truth. Don't worry, I will always stand by you. No matter what you say, I will keep it a secret for you and will never let anyone else know."
Luo Qinghan's gaze returned to her face again, his eyes gradually becoming darker: "Do you really want to know?"
Xiao Xixi nodded: "Of course!"
Luo Qinghan lowered his head and whispered a few words in her ear.
Xiao Xixi's little face suddenly turned red.
She was so embarrassed that she couldn't speak clearly and stammered.
“I, I can’t do that!”
Luo Qinghan felt a little disappointed when he heard this answer, but he didn't force her.
He said calmly, "Forget it if it doesn't work, just go to sleep."
Xiao Xixi grabbed his collar and explained with a red face: "It's not that I don't want to, I really, really can't!"
Luo Qinghan felt soft-hearted when he saw her anxious look.
"Why not?"
Xiao Xixi wanted to say that she still had the poison in her body and couldn't do that kind of thing, but she didn't want to tell him about it. She didn't want him to worry.
She held it in for a long time, and finally only uttered one sentence.
"I'm not ready yet."
Luo Qinghan gently stroked her back, soothing her emotions while whispering.
"It's okay, you can take your time to prepare. I can wait, no matter how long it takes."
Xiao Xixi grasped his collar even tighter, as if she was holding on to something precious, afraid that he would slip away.
She pleaded with her eyes wide open.
"Then you must wait for me. I will be well in three years at most. Before that, don't look for anyone else.
Everything else can be discussed.
The only thing you can’t do is to like me. "
Luo Qinghan looked at her nervous appearance, and his heart had already softened.
He couldn't help but lower his head and kiss her lips.
This kiss was very deep.
a long time.
The two then separated.
Luo Qinghan's fingertips brushed across her rosy lips and he asked in a hoarse voice.
"Didn't you say before that I could meet someone better?"
Xiao Xixi blushed and said confidently: "From now on, I am the best person!"
Luo Qinghan laughed softly.
How can this woman be so cute?
She was so cute that he wanted to hide her and not let anyone see her.
Perhaps it was because the woman in his arms was so sweet that he temporarily forgot his fears.
He fell asleep without realizing it.
When he woke up in the early morning of the next day, Luo Qinghan still felt a little dazed.
I didn't have a nightmare last night.
During this period of time, he had nightmares almost every night, and sometimes he couldn't sleep for the whole night, and could only rely on taking medicine to get through it.
Yesterday was the only night in this year that he slept well without taking medicine.
Perhaps because of his good sleep, Luo Qinghan felt very energetic today, and his appetite also improved. He drank half a bowl of porridge for breakfast.
Eunuch Chang saw all this and felt very pleased.
The emperor finally cheered up!
…
Inside Liuyunxuan.
Lu Jieyu is having dessert after dinner.
Although her rank was not high, she had the support of the Grand Empress Dowager, so no one in the palace dared to neglect her, and she was indispensable for all the good things.
This dessert was newly made by the imperial kitchen. There were only a few portions in total. Each high-ranking concubine got one portion, and the remaining portion was sent to Concubine Lu.
Yao Jieyushi, who was also a concubine, did not receive such good treatment, not to mention the other five newcomers who entered the palace at the same time.
Lu Jieyu was in a very good mood as she ate the delicious dessert.
The palace maid Zi Ye walked in hurriedly.
"Yesterday, the emperor sent people to send Xin Liu and Lu Ya to the Ministry of Punishment!"
Upon hearing this, Concubine Lu's face changed and her good mood took a sharp turn for the worse.
Xin Liu and Lu Ya were bribed by her, so they deliberately chose to say those words when the imperial concubine went to Yunxiu Palace. Their purpose was to provoke the imperial concubine and make her suffer a great blow, so that she would have a big fight with the emperor.
But the imperial concubine not only did not make a fuss, she also asked the emperor to send the new willow and green buds to the Ministry of Punishment.
Zi Ye was worried: "What if they betray you?"
Lu Jieyu tried to keep herself calm: "I asked someone else to do this. I didn't show up from beginning to end. As long as I deny it and say that I was framed, I should be fine."
Having said that, she still felt a little uneasy.
She stood up and said, "Let's go to Changle Palace."
“Here!”
Soon they hurried to Changle Palace.
When the Empress Dowager heard Concubine Lu's explanation of the whole matter, her face immediately darkened and she scolded angrily.
"Foolish! Do you think you can get away with it by denying everything? What if the emperor orders everyone around you to be taken to the Ministry of Punishment and have Xin Liu and Lu Ya identify them one by one? What will you do?"
Concubine Lu was unable to answer and was filled with fear.
She stammered, "How about I send someone to kill the eunuch who was doing the job?"
The Empress Dowager: "Everyone in the palace is registered. Suddenly someone is missing from your place, and it happens to be at this critical moment. Isn't it obvious that you are a suspect?"
Concubine Lu knelt on the ground, at a loss: "What should I do then?"
The Empress Dowager was so angry that her head hurt.
If Concubine Lu was not her great-niece, she would have been driven out by now.
She said in a deep voice: "Don't do anything when you go back. I will take care of the rest for you."
Lu Jieyu was delighted: "Thank you!"
