Chapter Twenty-Nine: Sure enough, he wasn't dumb

"Girl, isn't this Xu Gongzi quite prejudiced against you, why do you want to praise you in a different way?" Zilu was puzzled.

Xu Qingqing didn't know what Xu Shuhuai wanted.

Before the two of them could figure out what was going on, Xu Shuhuai ordered someone to send Zilu back to Prince Hong's mansion, because this maid didn't understand the rules and was not suitable to stay in the palace.

On that day, Zilu was forced out of the palace.

"I heard that the maid was slapped several times for offending that Xu Gongzi......" Mama said in Queen Li's ear.

Empress Li smiled - there is a good show to watch now.

Fools can see that Xu Shuhuai took the maid away in order to make Xu Yuanyu isolated in the palace.

Since it is isolated, it is not surprising that whatever happens next.

But nothing happened.

The harem is quiet, as if there is no such person as Xu Qingqing at all.

She gets up every hour and sleeps on the third watch, eats the exquisite dishes of the imperial dining room, and has palace maids to serve her in and out, and her life is no different from that of the harem concubines, but she is gradually losing weight when she describes it.

She had been having nightmares for five days in a row, and each nightmare was the same—dreaming of her mother dying tragically under the rebels' knives, her head separated, her head unsightly, and her blood splattered all over her body......

In the dream, he was not only dumb, but also blind, and at the moment when his mother died, there was only an incomprehensible crimson left in his sight.

But her ears are good, and because of this, she can clearly hear the sound of the rebels' long knives slashing at her.

It was not cut to the throat, but a knife cut through the flesh of the limbs, and the pain was so painful that I couldn't breathe, and I couldn't survive or die......

It's not that the imperial doctor hasn't come to see it, but he can't see any clues.

No matter how valuable the palace maid ordered, she could never make this nightmare disappear.

"Miss Xu, the folk say that cats can break evil spirits, you feed and water the civet cat every day, but you still have such terrible dreams, it can be seen how many hurtful things have been done!" Biya scoffed, only feeling that this was her retribution.

Raccoon cat......

Xu Qingqing's heart tightened.

It seems that it was from the day the civet cat came to her side that she had nightmares.

"I think you should live in the Buddha hall, with the green lantern ancient Buddha, maybe you can eliminate karma as soon as possible." The unsightly Zilu was gone, and Biya became more open-mouthed than before.

It can be seen by a person that His Royal Highness is very disgusted with this woman, even if this woman marries a concubine in the future, she must be a puppet concubine, and she has less real power in her hands.

If so, why be too polite?

Xu Qingqing ignored Biya's provocation, and looked at the lazy civet cat in the corner, her expression slightly condensed.

On this day, she did not plan to fall asleep on the third watch, but stared at the soothing incense in the room and counted the hours.

The night in the palace seems to be darker than elsewhere, and there is no moon and stars to be seen, and there are no lights around.

The new emperor ascended the throne and ordered everything to be frugal, and as soon as the three watches passed, the lights in the palace were extinguished, and there was no light left.

It was at this time that the civet cat paced and came to Xu Qingqing.

It jumped onto the dresser and stretched its back, its back hunched high like an arched bridge.

Then, those amber eyes suddenly stared at Xu Qingqing's face, stretched out their claws and scratched them......

Xu Qingqing was taken aback, got up and retreated again and again, and inadvertently caught a glimpse of her face in the bronze mirror.

A small red worm rested on her forehead, like a delicately drawn flower......

She was startled and wanted to catch it, but found that the worm did not stop at all, but grew in the flesh and skin, red and thin like a flower, and seemed to be trembling slightly......

A sharp blade-like coldness rose from his back, as if it was cutting through the flesh and invading the bone marrow.

Xu Qingqing couldn't hold back any longer, screamed in fright, her body went limp, and she fell unconscious on the cold ground.

"I said she's not dumb, why don't you believe it?" One person pushed the door open.

It's none other than Xu Shuhuai.

Xu is night breeze was too cold, he covered his face with a handkerchief, coughed a few times in a low voice, his eyes fell on the unconscious Xu Qingqing, and the smile in his eyes was extremely sarcastic: "If you were really dumb, you wouldn't have such a powerful voice......
