Chapter 49: What is Real
Shen Tingyu clapped his palms and tilted his head to look at him in confusion: “Your Majesty, what do you understand?”
There was no smell of alcohol in her body. Shen Tingyu was very sober at the moment, and the reaction of being drunk echoed in her mind.
She hadn't expected that she would be like this after getting drunk. She was so moody and could get mad at the slightest thing. Fortunately, she didn't do anything strange to the tyrant.
Thinking of the kiss that didn't fall, Shen Tingyu secretly glanced at him, feeling fortunate in her heart, otherwise she wouldn't know how to get along with him.
"I am indeed affected by the poisonous insect." Xin Hongying did not dare to touch the poisonous insect with her hands. She took a cup and trapped it in the cup.
A blood-red poisonous insect was crawling in the cup. Xin Hongying's eyes dimmed. He covered his beating heart with his hands, and his emotions were surging inside.
Xin Hongying sneered, "I find this fat insect so pleasing to the eye that I can't even muster the slightest bit of anger."
"My state of mind and emotions are affected in this way!"
Xin Hongying's body trembled slightly, and even his lips were shaking. There was a strong storm in his eyes, and his voice was as light as the calm before the storm.
"My emotions were easily affected by a tiny poisonous insect, and I was toyed with again and again..." His tone was filled with stubborn madness and deep self-mockery.
"I suddenly feel like a stranger. Even my emotions aren't real. How can anything else be real?"
Xin Hongying looked down at Shen Tingyu in his palm, his dark eyes pressed down, and his voice was low: “Fairy, tell me…is there anything else that is real?”
The fireworks in the water pavilion bloomed behind him, breaking the tranquility of the night. They were as bright as stars, lighting up the dark night sky, but they could not illuminate the endless darkness that was growing wildly in his heart.
[Beep! Beep! Warning... Warning! Xin Hongying's darkening value +2+2+2+2+2... Host, please pay attention!]
[The progress of the wise ruler training task has been reduced by 5%. The current progress is 7%!]
[Xiao Qi (anxious): The target's current blackening value is too high, and it has seriously affected the progress of the mission.]
Shen Tingyu:!!!
She didn't expect that a high blackening value would actually affect the progress of the mission.
The tyrant was not in a good state. He lowered his head, and the upper half of his face fell in the shadow of the fireworks, making it impossible to see his expression. All that could be seen was his high nose tip, superior lip shape, and trembling mouth.
She looked up, her expression a little flustered, and Wuwu's little hands opened, giving him a hug in the void, "You still have me."
She accurately caught the fear and terror hidden deep in his heart between his words, and comforted him softly: "I am real, I will be with you, don't be afraid!"
I will stay with you until you complete the task.
Shen Tingyu added: “I will never betray you and will always stand on your Majesty’s side.”
Xin Hongying looked at Shen Tingyu with a scrutinizing gaze. After a moment, he said sternly, "Fairy, you can't lie to me. I will take it seriously!"
Shen Tingyu smiled slightly, and nodded with an unusually serious look on his face, thinking: You are the target of my mission, of course I will not betray you.
[Ding! Xin Hongying's Darkness value -1-1-1-1-1, current Darkness value: 26]
Shen Tingyu was slightly shocked. It had soared so much from zero. How painful must Xin Hongying's heart be...
…
At the night banquet, the feast continued with the sound of singing, dancing and music.
Watching Xin Hongying drag the Imperial Master away in public, Concubine Yu guzzled down glass after glass of wine. She gave a sinister laugh, her voice barely perceptible: "Another little bitch."
She has been under a lot of pressure recently. His Majesty refuses to see her, but her father hasn't given up on her outright.
However, half of the money and silk sent into the palace was missing, and she also received news that her father was planning to send his other adopted daughter, her mortal enemy, into the palace.
Concubine Yu looked at her with hatred and drank a glass of cold wine. She never expected that just a voodoo doll could make her lose the emperor's heart. Concubine Min was really good at tricks.
Xin Mingzhe glanced at Concubine Yu from time to time. Seeing her drinking heavily with a frown on her face, he felt worried.
At this time, a young eunuch walked up to Concubine Yu and whispered something in her ear in a mysterious voice. No one knew what they said, but Concubine Yu's eyes lit up, she curled her lips and smiled, and without any precautions, she followed the young eunuch and left the table suddenly.
He was really worried, so he secretly followed her. He hadn't exchanged letters with Concubine Yu for a long time, and he was really worried about her. Maybe this was a signal from Concubine Yu to him!
Xin Mingzhe followed them not too far away, so he wouldn't be discovered nor lost. It was a pity that he couldn't hear their conversation.
The Concubine Yu in the front, under the pretext of being too drunk, left the table with only a little palace maid. At this moment, she was talking to the young eunuch, her eyes raised, and her tone was light: "It is really His Majesty who is looking for me!"
"If you lie, I will tear your head off and plant it in the mud."
The young eunuch raised his head in fear and trepidation, and said cautiously and respectfully, "How dare I deceive Her Majesty the Concubine Yu?"
"This way, please."
The little eunuch led the way farther and farther, and further and further away. She was very familiar with the methods used in the palace. Concubine Yu lowered the corners of her lips and turned her head to look at the little palace maid following behind her.
This glance startled Xin Mingzhe, who was following carefully behind him.
Concubine Yu narrowed her beautiful eyes slightly, "Where is this? How come I've never been here before? Where are you taking me?"
The young eunuch turned around with a bitter look on his face but did not stop. He continued to walk forward, holding the lantern steadily. He said respectfully, "Your Highness, we are just ahead. We will be there soon."
After saying this, the eunuch led her into a room and stood in front of her, saying slowly, "We're here."
The room was pitch black, without even a single oil lamp, and it was gloomy and deep.
Concubine Min was alert and couldn't help but sneered in her heart: "Don't lie to me, His Majesty can't be here, tell me quickly, who sent you...ah...!"
She screamed quickly, and someone pushed her hard from behind, pushing her into the dark room.
Click, it was the sound of the iron lock being locked.
Concubine Yu's face turned pale, and the little palace maid following behind her disappeared silently at some point.
Countless thoughts and conspiracies flashed through her mind. Concubine Yu's body trembled slightly. She pushed the door with her slender hands, but it wouldn't budge. The iron lock was locked tightly.
So she banged on the window and shouted, "Help! Help!"
"I'm locked up! Get me out now!"
The shadow of the young eunuch holding the lamp was reflected on the window, and a calm voice sounded outside the door: "Empress Yu, you can't get out. No one will come."
She cursed in frustration, "Damn it, damn little eunuch, what are you doing?"
"Yu Fei!"
A cold voice sounded behind her, the voice was low and carried a hint of sinister coldness that came from hell.
Concubine Yu suddenly felt creepy, Liuli's pupils suddenly widened, and the slender fingers on the door curled up slightly.
"who!"
