Story of the Forbidden Palace - C105
It was drizzling outside the window. After all, the gathering rain had reached the edge of the tiles, and a small trickle of rain was trickling down.
Separated by the window, I looked at the drizzling rain or the flowing water, and my heart gradually cleared up. The air was moist, and his skin was moist and exquisite. In such a fresh early summer, it was actually very comfortable to be short of sweat and heat.
“Mistress, let’s eat a piece of Tangerine. It’s very sweet.” Condensate for me to peel the orange valve, placed in a chrysanthemum pattern embossed silver plate. I cast a sidelong glance at him, feeling that something was wrong.
“Is it unpalatable?” Then, this servant shall trade for some jade melons! ”
“No need, it’s just that these chrysanthemums aren’t suitable for early summer.” Something seemed to flash through his mind as he threw an orange petal into his mouth. The refreshing sweetness moistened his heart. I couldn’t help but exclaim, “So sweet!”
Seeing my happiness, Ning Zhi smiled and said, “It was sent here by the Emperor. He said it was fresh from the Imperial City. “Knowing that Master likes the fruits, I sent some of them over.”
“Send some to Ru Mei and Qi Meng. And let them always have the sugar-orange. “Just say that it is the Emperor’s grace and tiredness.” “Understood, Mistress.” Ning Zhi slowly retreated.
That night, the fog was specially used to change the fragrance of the orange peel to burn. Fortunately, it had rained during the night, so the burning of the incense wasn’t too hot. The smell of the room was intoxicating, and the more I slept, the more I relaxed on the bed.
“Suddenly, a black shadow flashed in. I heard the soft sound of clothes rubbing against each other.” “Who …” Before I could finish, a large hand clamped over my mouth.
There was only one night watch light in the room, and the fire was very weak. I widened my eyes. I was so terrified that I wanted to clearly see the person in front of me. But it was impossible to tell. Strangely, he did not speak, nor did he continue to move. For a moment I could not understand his intentions, nor did I dare to act rashly.
He sighed. “It’s me.” A deep voice broke the silence of the room, yet this voice was very familiar. I was amazed at his identity.
Just as he let go of my hand, I blurted out, “Brother Qingyu? Aren’t you in the southwest? How could he be here so late at night? ”
“Humph!” Qing Yu said snappily, “Of course you don’t want me to come back.” Although his voice wasn’t loud, it was full of criticism. I immediately understood the reason behind it, but I didn’t want to clarify anything.
When he saw that I didn’t say anything, he became even angrier. “You sure are able to keep your cool. You must not tell me that your cousin’s death has nothing to do with you! ”
Because it was summer, I wore only casual homemade pajamas and a loose, silky robe. He tied a belt around his waist and fixed the robe. However, I, who was completely awake, had already felt quite a bit of pain in my chest.
Embarrassed, I tidied up my clothes and pulled up the silky blanket to protect myself. He then unhappily said, “Since you know that I’m the one who did it, why did you ignore the danger and ask me about it?”
“You …” Qing Yu had turned his back on me while I was cleaning my clothes, but now he turned around and glared at me. I raised my head and shrugged. “Now that you know the answer, let’s go. This is not a place where you can come, nor is it a place where you should come. ”
“Humph!” Qing Yu smiled contemptuously. “Are you afraid that I will disturb your romance with the Emperor, or that I will disturb your dreams?” Listening to him, it seemed that he wanted to argue with me today. I sat up and let the silk slide down my body to my stomach.
