Seeing that Xiao Yechen was sleeping peacefully, Du Yan also seemed to feel a little sleepy, and slowly became more and more confused, so she fell asleep.

An hour had passed, and an attendant came to clean up the plates.

When the visitor saw that only Xiao Lu was in the front hall, he asked suspiciously: "We are here to clean up the dinner plates, but the dishes on the table have basically not been touched?" ”

The people who came didn't know whether to take it away or keep it.

Xiao Lu thought to himself, these two masters must have been concentrating on the conversation and didn't eat much, seeing that these meals were cold, they must not be able to eat anymore. So they were asked to take away the cold food, leaving only some pastries.

After everyone had taken away their meals, the dormitory became quiet again.

Xiao Lu was alone outside waiting for her young lady to come out, no one showed up for a long time, and she felt bored there, thinking that the two of them must have a lot to say. It's warm in the dormitory, and it's easy to feel sleepy. In the end, even Midori couldn't hold on to the table and fell asleep.

At this time, the dormitory was harmonious and quiet, as if it was isolated from the world.

Time passed little by little, night fell, and although it was winter, the sky was still full of stars.

Fortunately, nothing important happened in the palace this afternoon, and Xiao Yechen and Du Yan also slept peacefully.

After a while, Xiao Yechen woke up, and the fatigue on his face was reduced a lot.

What made him even happier was that Du Yan was lying beside him sleeping soundly at this time, and a sense of happiness came from his heart.

He looked at this lovely woman with gentle eyes, and couldn't help but kiss her forehead.

seemed to feel something, Du Yan's mouth was babbling, wanting to turn her body, this look was very cute.

Afraid of waking Du Yan up, Xiao Yechen didn't dare to make any big moves. He has been looking at her face with his eyes, and sometimes he will use his generous and warm palm to stroke Du Yan's hair, his eyes are affectionate, and his movements are gentle, as if he is looking at a very precious thing.

Maybe Xiao Yechen's gaze was too focused, which made Du Yan feel it.

She rubbed her eyes with her hands in a daze, and slowly woke up.

Before she fully woke up, a gentle voice like the wind suddenly came from her ears, "Yan'er woke up?" ”

This voice really startled Du Yan, and she opened her eyes suddenly, and a handsome face was clearly presented in front of her. If you take a closer look, it turns out to be Xiao Yechen.

She was so dazed that she almost forgot that she was lying with Xiao Yechen.

Du Yan said in a daze: "When did you wake up?" Why don't you wake me up? What time is it? ”

A series of questions followed, but Xiao Yechen still patiently replied one by one: "Now that it's dark, I can't bear to wake you up when I see that you are sleeping peacefully, and I want you to sleep a little longer." ”

Du Yan was suddenly shocked and said, "It's already so late, then I have to hurry back." ”

Xiao Yechen was not happy when she heard Du Yan say that she was going back, so he hugged her into his arms and hugged her tightly, "It's so late, don't go back, it's not safe." This time was the most restful sleep I've had since the accident

of once. ”

At this time, Xiao Yechen was like a coquettish child in Du Yan's eyes.

But thinking that this was inappropriate, Du Yan resolutely refused.

Brushing aside Xiao Yechen's hand, he sat up, wanting to get out of bed.

But Xiao Yechen wanted to stay with Du Yan for a while, so he took Du Yan in his arms again, reluctant to let go.

He lay on Du Yan's shoulder and muttered, "I really don't want you to leave." ”

Then he continued: "Yan'er will wait for a few more days, and I will crown you as the queen after I officially hold the enthronement ceremony." ”

Du Yan was not in a hurry about this matter, and said comfortingly: "It's not in a hurry now, wait until you stabilize the situation first." Now is not the time for you to get distracted. ”

Xiao Yechen let go of the hand holding Du Yan, and touched her head by the way: "Yan'er is not in a hurry, I am quite anxious, I really don't want to be separated from you for a moment." ”

Seeing Xiao Yechen like this, Du Yan's heart smiled, at this moment, she Du Yan was needed and happy.

Du Yan is actually reluctant to part with Xiao Yechen, but Xiao Yechen must still have a lot of things to deal with, and she will go to the morning court tomorrow, if she stays here now, Xiao Yechen will definitely be distracted, and the ministers of the court will definitely blame Xiao Yechen.

In the end, Xiao Yechen couldn't resist Du Yan, so he had to give in and let her go back.

The two got out of bed, sorted out their clothes, and went to the antechamber of the dormitory.

At this time, Xiao Lu was sleeping on the table, and Du Yan pretended to cough a few times when she saw this. scared Midori so much that she jumped up.

rubbed her eyes with her hands, and when she woke up, she saw Xiao Yechen and Du Yan both standing in front of her, she thought she was going to be punished, and fell to her knees with a bang, "Miss, I'm sorry, Xiao Lu saw that it was too warm in this dormitory, so she couldn't help falling asleep, and asked Miss and the emperor not to blame Xiao Lu." ”

Seeing Xiao Lu's appearance, Du Yan laughed out loud and said, "Hurry up, we are also ready to go back to the house." ”

Seeing that the two of them didn't mean to blame themselves, Xiao Lu suddenly became energetic, and got up while thanking him.

Xiao Lu walked to the clothes rack on the side, picked up the cloak that Du Yan was wearing today, and put it on for her.

At this time, Xiao Yechen came to the door of the dormitory and instructed the guards at the door to prepare a carriage for Du Yan, and also assigned her some guards by the way.

When the guards went to prepare the carriage, Xiao Yechen pulled Du Yan to talk again.

Midori waited outside the dormitory for the carriage to arrive.

Du Yan suddenly said to Xiao Yechen: "I may have to go back to Du Mansion in the next few days, thinking that I haven't gone back to visit my father for a long time." ”

Xiao Yechen was a little surprised when he saw Du Yan say this, "Why did you suddenly think of going back to Du Mansion, do you need me to accompany you back?" ”

Du Yan hurriedly shook her head: "I'll go back by myself, you are so busy all day, don't delay important things." ”

Before he could finish speaking, the guards came with carriages and guards.

Midori came in to report and took the food box they had brought with them when they came.

Xiao Yechen saw that Du Yan was unwilling to let him go back with her, so he compromised: "That."

Remember to tell me when you go back, and I'll have someone get ready for you. ”

Du Yan nodded with a smile and said, "Don't worry, just go home." ”

After that, Xiao Yechen touched Du Yan's head dotingly, "You travel by yourself, and I'm not around, how can you not worry." Come, I'll put you in the carriage first. ”

Then he pulled Du Yan to the door of the dormitory and helped her into the carriage.

After the two waved goodbye, the carriage headed for the palace gate. Xiao Yechen watched the carriage disappear into his field of vision step by step.
