Chapter 222: Drinking tea at night affects rest

Maybe...... It was really his sense of smell that went wrong, and he had momentary hallucinations.

Shui Yue took advantage of Ye Xuanchen's stunned moment to reach out and gently push Ye Xuanchen's body away, she lowered her head slightly to widen the distance between the two.

"If the emperor is tired, let's rest first. It's good for Suizuki to eat by herself. ”

Ye Xuanchen pulled back to his senses, and his expression returned to his composure.

"No, I still haven't finished reading a few books, so I'll rest after I've finished reading them. You eat in peace and then rest early. ”

Shui Yue nodded, and Ye Xuanchen raised his steps and walked towards the door. Shui Yue looked at the back of Ye Xuanchen and the flying sand and dust gradually disappearing, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Although she didn't know why, whether it was because of the approach of that strange aura, it was a problem that solved Shui Yueda. If Yunmo still refused to leave just now, Ye Xuanchen walked in and happened to run into it, I am afraid that there will be some trouble at that time. Although Ye Xuanchen's memory can also be sealed after this, because his mana in this area is not very proficient, I am afraid that it will take some effort.

After Shui Yue finished dinner, she stood at the door of the dormitory and looked at the sky outside the door. It's not early now, but Ye Xuanchen hasn't come back yet, otherwise, she still has to go to the "imperial study" to have a look to settle down.

Thinking of this, Shui Yue raised his steps and walked down the steps in the direction of the "Imperial Study".

Shui Yue walked all the way through the brightly lit palace gate, and when she turned the corner of a palace wall, she suddenly felt a familiar and strange aura coming behind her. Shui Yue's heart was stunned. It's the mysterious enemy in the shadows! By the time she realized this, her figure had flashed by, chasing after the source of the aura.

Shui Yue chased that breath all the way, and indeed found that the speed of that breath was so fast that he could barely keep up, and Shui Yue remembered that the last time Yun Mo chased him, he couldn't catch up in the end. Presumably, his speed is the only one in the world. With his own ability, I am afraid it will be difficult to catch up.

Just when Shui Yue was chasing after the breath in front of him, he suddenly felt that the speed of that breath seemed to be getting faster and faster, and he was about to disappear into Shui Yue's perception range. Shui Yue released his divine sense to chase after him, but at this moment he heard the sound of a fresh wind blowing the leaves in his ears.

Shui Yue followed that breath all the way. But he stopped when he saw a bamboo forest appear in front of him.

The bamboo forest at your feet is dense. And that breath was covered by this bamboo forest, I don't know if the person has left, or just hid in this dense bamboo forest and disappeared.

The water moon stood in mid-air, looking out. But he failed to find half of the mysterious man. And in her ears, she could only hear the sound of the wind blowing bamboo leaves.

Don't. Let him escape like this again this time? But Shui Yue didn't understand, why did the mysterious figure appear in that place? Don't...... He was heading towards Ye Xuanchen, but he ran into Shui Yue halfway through. That's why you turned around and fled?

In any case, she still went to determine Ye Xuanchen's safety first.

Thinking of this, Shui Yue turned around and ran back without hesitation. She hid her figure and walked all the way back, only to realize that she had chased so far away. When Shui Yue approached the "Imperial Study", he unexpectedly found that Ye Xuanchen's breath did not exist in the "Imperial Study", so he stopped moving forward.

Her heart was stunned, and the look in her eyes flashed slightly. Could it be that Ye Xuanchen has already finished his business and gone back to the dormitory?

Shui Yue turned around and flew away in the direction of the dormitory, and when she approached the courtyard of the dormitory, she looked around and landed on the ground in a quiet corner to show her figure. She looked around and didn't see anything wrong, so she walked out of the corner towards the courtyard of the dormitory.

When Shui Yue got closer to the courtyard of the dormitory, he felt the presence of Ye Xuanchen's breath, and finally breathed a sigh of relief. His breath was steady, and he should be safe and sound.

When Shui Yue walked into the house, the little basket was changing the clothes that Ye Xuanchen had worn during the day. Ye Xuanchen saw Shui Yue walk in, the look in his eyes flashed slightly, and he asked.

"Where did you go?"

When he came back from the process just now, he didn't see Shui Yue's figure in the house as expected, and after waiting for a while, he still didn't see her come back.

"Go to the 'Imperial Study' to find the emperor."

Shui Yue stood two steps away from Ye Xuanchen, and the small basket had already changed his clothes for Ye Xuanchen. Ye Xuanchen's eyes flashed with doubts because of Shui Yue's words.

"You go down first."

"The minions obey."

The little basket answered and withdrew. Ye Xuanchen turned around and walked to the table and sat down, picked up the lid of the teacup that was originally placed on the table, and scratched the tea leaves in the cup to the side.

"Then why didn't I see you on the way back?"

Shui Yue's gaze was on the teacup in Ye Xuanchen's hand, and she frowned slightly. She didn't answer Ye Xuanchen's question, but raised her steps and walked in front of Ye Xuanchen, reached out and snatched the lid from Ye Xuanchen's hand, covered it on top of the teacup, and then moved the teacup away.

"Drinking tea at night affects rest."

Shui Yue's faint words were another Ye Xuanchen's momentary stunned. She's ...... Care about him...... But why should he be controlled by her?

Ye Xuanchen raised his eyebrows a little helplessly, and after a moment of silence, he had to open his mouth helplessly.

"I'm tired, let's rest."

After Ye Xuanchen finished speaking, he got up and walked towards the bed first, the look in Shui Yue's eyes flashed, and then he followed behind Ye Xuanchen towards the bed.

When the morning light covered the palace walls of the entire imperial city, Shui Yue squatted in the flowers of the "Imperial Garden" as always after Ye Xuanchen went to court, collecting dew for Ye Xuanchen. She carefully slid the droplets of water from the green leaf into the cup in her hand, followed by the next leaf.

Just as Shui Yue carefully poured the dew from the cup into the large bottle placed on the ground, she felt two breaths approaching, and then heard a sound of footsteps, mixed with the whispered chatter of the two little palace maids.

"Today, I heard from the eldest brother of the guard patrolling near the 'Qingzhu Garden' that the palace maid found late last night died tragically."

"yes, I've heard that, too. It was as if someone had gouged out his eyes and stuffed it in his mouth. All the clothes on his body were torn, and he was simply unclothed. I don't know who is so ruthless, or if the little palace maid offended the lady of that palace......"

Before the palace maid could finish speaking, she was hurriedly interrupted by another person.

"What nonsense are you talking about, be careful that the wall has ears for others to hear!"

After being frightened by the older palace maid, the young palace maid hurriedly covered her mouth, lowered her head and looked around secretly. Only then did the two of them speed up their pace and walked out of the "Imperial Garden".

Shui Yue stopped the movement in her hand and frowned slightly.

"Qingzhuyuan" ...... It must be the bamboo forest she chased last night......

Shui Yue slowly walked into the courtyard of the "Imperial Study" with the bottle full of dew, and when she stepped up the steps, she was stopped by Luoyang reaching out.

"Miss Suiyue, please stay."

Looking at Luoyang who was blocking in front of him, Shui Yue stopped.

"General Lowe."

Luoyang nodded in return.

"Miss Shuiyue, the emperor is discussing with the ministers of the court, please wait here for a while."

Shui Yue nodded, and stopped where he was. And in her ears, there was already the sound of Ye Xuanchen's conversation in the room at this time.

"If the national teacher has anything to say, he can say it directly."

Ye Xuanchen looked at the old minister standing in front of the table, and urged him to speak out for his hesitation. Since he walked into this "imperial study", he has kept his head down, frowning tightly, but he has never said a word.

The old national teacher paused slightly, opened his mouth, but still didn't say half a word. Ye Xuanchen looked at the national teacher who wanted to speak and stopped, and the look in his eyes flashed.

"Is there anything inconvenient for the national teacher to say to me?"

The old national teacher gasped, hesitated for a moment, and then opened his mouth in a low voice.

"Return to the emperor...... The old minister does have something important to report. ”

Seeing that the old national teacher finally opened his mouth, Ye Xuanchen leaked a slight smile.

"The old national teacher, please sit down first, and then talk to me slowly about something."

The old national teacher did not follow what Ye Xuanchen said, and his frowning brows became tighter and tighter.

"Your Majesty...... Lao Chen has been worried about one thing for the past few months. ”

"Oh? When did the old national teacher become so worried? ”

Ye Xuanchen raised his eyebrows slightly, smiled lightly and asked. The old national teacher was still frowning, as if what he was about to say was very serious, and the expression on his face that could not be relaxed also made Ye Xuanchen's heart tense.

"Back to the emperor...... Be...... There is a change in the sky......"

Ye Xuanchen was stunned, and a touch of surprise flashed in his eyes. The old national teacher is good at observing the sky at night in the court, and every time his prophecy will be fulfilled very accurately, since he ascended the throne, it is indeed because of the old national teacher's prophecy that the country has embarked on the road of more and more prosperity. But today, the old national teacher told him that there was a change in the sky?

"What do you mean by the national teacher?"

Ye Xuanchen's heart couldn't help but feel a little nervous. The old national teacher sighed slowly before continuing.

"According to the old minister's night observation of the celestial phenomena since he entered the two months, he found that there were two strange stars around the emperor's astrological signs. And these two astrological signs seem very strange...... Recently, the old minister heard that there were many strange things in the palace where palace maids died mysteriously...... I'm afraid ......"

Seeing the doubts of the old national teacher, Ye Xuanchen hurriedly spoke.

"It doesn't hurt if the old national teacher has something to say."

The old national teacher paused slightly, and gasped again.

"The old minister overheard the minister of the court and the central government talking about an incident that happened when the palace held a birthday banquet a few days ago." (To be continued......)
