An Jiu thought the emperor would be unhappy after being scolded, but unexpectedly he seemed to be in a good mood.
He even smiled in a nasty way and asked Anjiu to pat his back.
An Jiu was speechless and was about to go over when the emperor said, "Forget it."
【께九Why would you do such a thing? 】
So the one who massaged his back was replaced by Fukuko.
께 Fuzi's eyes lit up.
Your Majesty finally, finally, finally thought of 놛. You should let 놛 beat you. 놛 is much stronger than 께九꺶.
The emperor closed his eyes and enjoyed it, but his thoughts were in a mess.
[The second brother's fiefdom is near Nanlin, it seems that he is also anxious. 】
The emperor chuckled.
An Jiu looked at him curiously, and felt that the emperor had an indescribable feeling at this moment.
He no longer looked cowardly as before, as if everything was under his control.
An Jiu vaguely felt that he was playing a game of chess, and everyone was a chess piece on the board.
At this moment, the emperor suddenly opened his eyes and met An Jiu's eyes, who was looking at him curiously.
An Jiu quickly looked away.
The emperor's chuckle was heard again.
[Sneak a peek at me...]
[A silly goose who says one thing and means another.] 】
An Jiu: "..."
Soon, the emperor fell asleep.
…
The moonlight was heavy, and the leaves in the courtyard of Jinxiu Palace spun a few times in the wind.
Footsteps echoed.
The door was pushed open.
The lights in the house came on.
Two figures appeared in the dilapidated window.
"What are we doing here?" An Jiu didn't understand why the tyrant came here.
The tyrant was upset and looked left and right in the room.
"Your Majesty?" An Jiu said.
The tyrant looked back at her.
놛 said: "께九, I had a lot of strange dreams."
An Jiu felt that something was not right, so he asked, "What was the dream?"
The tyrant doesn't remember clearly.
"It's all about Father."
An Jiu paused.
This is the Emperor's memory...
"What else did you dream about?" she asked.
The tyrant shook his head: "I forgot everything, I only remember that my father... praised me for being smart."
An Jiu frowned slightly.
She felt that her idea was right. The tyrant and the emperor might have begun to merge without realizing it.
In other words…
"So I will disappear?" the tyrant suddenly asked.
An Jiu shook his head: "No."
The tyrant laughed: "Jiujiu, you lied to me too."
An Jiu shook his head again: "You are the same person."
The tyrant looked at An Jiu and suddenly said, "If I kill 놛, will I be the only one left?"
An Jiu said hurriedly: "No, you are the same person, 놛 is you. If you kill 놛, you may also be in danger."
The tyrant was a little angry and shouted, "You are biased. You want me to disappear. I know that I am just a useless child who can't do anything."
An Jiu frowned and looked at him: "That's not the case."
"What's that?" The tyrant tilted his head and looked at Anjiu, stubbornly demanding an answer.
An Jiu said seriously: "You are not right today, did someone say something to you?"
The tyrant pursed his lips.
【께九 found out. 】
【what to do? what to do? what to do? 】
【께 Jiu will definitely tell that ghost. 】
【They want to kill me. 】
놛 stared at An Jiu.
【snort. 】
[It’s obvious that she is biased.] 】
[She favors that ghost.] 】
She even questioned me! 】
An Jiu said, "Can you calm down?"
"Not good." The tyrant looked at his hands, then looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar house in front of him.
놛It was like an NPC that suddenly awakened and discovered many overlooked bugs.
"Jiujiu, I can't bear to leave you." The tyrant looked up at her and said aggrievedly: "If I am gone, who will protect you?"
An Jiu looked up at him and asked, "Are you sad because of this?"
The tyrant nodded, then shook his head.
It seems to be, but it also seems not to be.
An Jiu came over and hugged her gently: "You won't disappear. Even if you disappear, you will protect me. I know that."
The tyrant didn't quite understand.
An Jiu then asked: "Did anyone tell you anything?"
There must be a reason why the tyrant has become what he is now.
The tyrant looked at Anjiu blankly.
“Yes… yes… yes…”
놛 wanted to say something, but before he could get the words out, he fell down and fainted.
An Jiu supported 놛 the moment 놛 fell to the ground.
I don't know why, but I suddenly feel a little sad.
Even though I told myself again and again that we are one person, deep down I still can't treat us as one person.
A tyrant is a tyrant.
Even an emperor of 20 years cannot replace a tyrant of 7 years old.
Likewise, she didn't want the emperor to disappear.
She exhaled.
Suddenly, there was a sound of a door opening outside.
An Jiu blew out the candle and dragged the tyrant to hide under the bed.
She heard footsteps.
One after another.
Very slight.
An Jiu swallowed.
Who is outside?
Why are you here at this time?
What if it was...
By the way, Liu Chen and Nanny Chang are dead, but are there any other spies?
What now?
The tyrant ran so fast, I don't know if the secret guards followed him...
Anjiu's heart was in her throat. She stared at the door nervously while patting Tyrant, hoping that 놛 would wake up at this time.
The footsteps stopped.
Stop right at the door.
From Anjiu's perspective, he could see the door. This was the perspective from which the tyrant saw the murderer...
Then……
With the remaining moonlight outside, An Jiu seemed to see an eye through the crack in the door looking inside. At that moment, An Jiu seemed to look into those eyes.
Her scalp tingled and all the hair on her body stood up.
Time passed little by little, it seemed like a very long time had passed, yet it seemed like not much time had passed.
An Jiu heard footsteps again, this time they were hurried.
The man outside left.
An Jiu breathed a sigh of relief.
She was stiff and drenched in cold sweat.
Then he turned his head and met a pair of pitch-black eyes, which gave An Jiu a severe fright.
"ah!"
She tried to get up in a hurry, but her head hit the bed.
There was a thud sound.
An Jiu felt her mind was in a daze. After a brief moment of blankness, she was pulled out from under the bed.
"How is it?" the emperor asked with concern.
An Jiu covered his head and said after a while: "I'm fine."
The emperor breathed a sigh of relief, took out a candle and lit it, and the room became bright.
Seeing An Jiu's pale face and nervous expression, 놛 couldn't help but ask: "께九, what's wrong with you?"
Actually, I really want to ask, what are 께九 and the fool doing? What are you doing hiding in bed?
An Jiu said: "Your Majesty, the murderer is someone else."
The emperor was stunned: "What?"
An Jiu said excitedly: "That Liu Chen is also a scapegoat. The real murderer is someone else. He just came and is standing at the door."
Not long after the emperor ran away, Lin San appeared.
"Your Majesty."
The emperor asked: "Was anyone there just now?"
Lin San was not sure. When they came, they seemed to see a dark shadow moving very quickly. They thought it was the emperor, so they sent people to chase it, but they failed to catch up.
Lin San knelt on one knee: "I am incompetent."
The emperor narrowed his eyes.
If Lin San and the others can't catch up, then this person's martial arts skills are not comparable to theirs.
In other words…
The one who ran away from Nanny Chang and couldn't even be caught up by the idiot was not the dead Liu Chen.
Too……
If he was really such an expert, he should have known about the ambush outside the moment he entered the prison, and he should have noticed that Nanny Chang was not breathing, and he would not have been caught by Jiang Sheng so easily.
The emperor sneered.
It's not Liu Chen. There are only two people left, Qiao Dong from the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Han Yun beside Concubine Shu.
Who could it be?
