Chapter 638: The Emperor's Nightmare
Ji Yanning returned to Liufu and carefully checked the set of clothes that he had changed in the palace just now, and it was indeed touched by someone.
Because the poison is colorless and odorless, it is difficult to detect if you are not careful.
Sprinkle the medicinal powder on the clothes, if Ji Yanning really wears that clothes, I am afraid that the skin on his body will start to have a rash and will fester.
Ji Yanning took out the clothes and threw them away.
Ziyu looked at Ji Yanning's face and knew that the dress had been tampered with, and asked puzzledly: "If there is really something wrong with this dress, why doesn't Miss stay as evidence, so as to find out who is secretly trying to hurt Miss." ”
Listening to Ziyu's words, Ji Yanning said indifferently: "The matter is in the palace, do you think I can continue to investigate?" The final result is just perfunctory, why should I touch this brow." ”
Ziyu naturally didn't know about Ji Yanning, and she didn't know that the person who poisoned her was the emperor.
If she knew, she wouldn't have been able to say that.
Just hearing Ji Yanning say this, he could only frown slightly, and said: "The people who go to the banquet this time are either rich or expensive, and they really can't be provoked." ”
Ji Yanning didn't speak, but his eyes were a little heavy.
She didn't have too many scruples before, she just wanted Rong Liang to die, and wanted to take revenge on Rong Ling.
After all, her closest relatives died in Rong Ling's hands, and she couldn't swallow such hatred and resentment.
But her current identity, if she acts rashly, it will only drag down more people, the people of the Liu family, Ji Lang, and Baochang Ji.
So she is not only herself, there are too many people standing behind her, and if she wants to take revenge, she can only choose the best way.
Sure enough, the emperor had a nightmare.
In the middle of the night, he was awakened by a nightmare, his back was already covered with sweat, and there was some cold sweat on his forehead, and he was short of breath.
Looking at the empty dormitory, the emperor felt a little frightened.
He dreamed of Ji Yanning, when she was dancing with a sword, her eyes were extremely sharp, holding a sword, stabbing at herself, and her face also became Ying Caiwei's face.
When the sword pierced his body, he heard Ying Caiwei speak: "Rong Liang, I have come back to take revenge." ”
He was so frightened that he jumped awake.
After being the emperor for so many years, he is no longer the young self he was at the beginning, and now he holds great power and is in charge of life and death, and he has never regretted what he did at the beginning.
Because only by doing so can he get to where he is today and ascend to this throne.
It's all worth it!
But for countless nights, he still had a weak heart, especially the resentful eyes that Ying Caiwei looked at him before she died.
She is the proud daughter of the sky, and even the first emperor praised her.
He had to admit that even he was overshadowed by this woman's face.
How can such a person continue to stay?
He told himself that he didn't regret it, that there was no one in the royal family who didn't have blood on his hands, but he was still scared in his heart.
He's a true dragon and shouldn't be afraid.
Ji Yanning shouldn't have kept it, but she was hard-hitting, and the people she sent out to kill her failed again and again, like a monster that couldn't be killed.
Ying Caiwei was also dead at the beginning, but she seemed to be still haunting herself, as if she was haunted.
"Your Majesty, are you awake?" The eunuch guarding the dormitory heard the movement, hurriedly stepped forward and came to the dragon couch, "Don't you want a slave to serve?"
The emperor's eyes were deep, but now he had eased up, and he just said faintly, "No. What time is it?"
"Back to the emperor, it's just time to arrive at this time. The eunuch replied truthfully.
The Emperor rubbed his head, feeling as if his body was feeling a little weak.
But he is obviously only in his forties, in the prime of life, and he still has a long way to go.
He felt it was time to figure it out.
Xiao Shaobei finally returned to Chang'an two days before the Chinese New Year.
In fact, many people don't understand.
After all, there is only one master in the entire Dingbei Hou Mansion now, Xiao Shaobei is deserted wherever he goes, so it is better to stay in the north.
In the past, even when Xiao Jifeng was still alive, many Chinese New Year's Celebrations were spent in northern Xinjiang.
However, Xiao Shaobei's temperament has changed greatly since his father's death, and many people respect him, even if they can't guess it, they don't dare to inquire without permission.
Ji Yanning asked people to clean up the Dingbei Hou Mansion well.
Hearing the news of Xiao Shaobei's return, Ji Yanning was naturally very happy, he hadn't seen Xiao Shaobei for a long time, although news would come back from time to time, he would still be worried.
But this time Ji Yanning couldn't get out, I don't know if the emperor continued to secretly send people to keep an eye on him, if he went to the Dingbei Marquis Mansion, I was afraid that the emperor would be even more angry, and he wanted to kill himself and Xiao Shaobei even more.
Because the Chinese New Year is approaching, the atmosphere of Chang'an City is very good, there are red lanterns and satin everywhere, and all kinds of shouts to buy New Year's goods, which is very lively.
Ji Yanning took Zisheng and Ziluo to wander around the street, but he didn't like to go to crowded places, so he bought some things, and then found a teahouse to rest.
Zisheng and Ziluo are difficult to go out shopping, and their interest is still very high, after all, when they were in Zhangzhou before, they never thought that they would be able to come to the prosperous Chang'an, even if they have been patient, but their eyes still can't help but look around.
Ji Yanning smiled: "You don't have to endure it like this, you can watch it if you want to, buy it if you want to, just don't get lost." ”
Hearing Ji Yanning say this, Zisheng still said, "We came out to buy with Miss." ”
They still know the rules of being a maid, since the two sisters are on duty next to Miss, they find that Miss treats her subordinates very well, except that the rules are stricter, and other treatments are simply unimaginable to them before.
Ji Yanning just smiled, now that the two sisters have just arrived at their side, they really can't let go, and it will be fine after a long time.
As soon as he came down from the teahouse, he met Shen Qingyi.
Seeing Ji Yanning, Shen Qingyi was also a little surprised, but he still saluted in a regular manner: "Miss Ji." ”
Ji Yanning said: "Did Shen Yuanwailang also come out to buy New Year's goods?"
After all, it's almost the New Year, so their Hanlin Academy will naturally rest, and now Shen Qingyi should stay at home, but thinking of the situation in Shen Qingyi's house, she knows why Shen Qingyi came out.
Naturally, he had to hide from the women at home.
Shen Qingyi lowered his head and smiled bitterly and said, "Yes." ”
Ji Yanning said: "Then don't bother Shen Yuanwailang, I'll go back first." ”
Shen Qingyi gave way and let Ji Yanning go first.
It's just that when Ji Yanning was about to go down the stairs, a guy next to him trotted over, and he was about to bump into Ji Yanning.
Ji Yanning frowned slightly, took half a step back, and then did not fall to Shen Qingyi's side.
When Shen Qing saw that Ji Yanning was about to fall, she stretched out her hand to protect her, but when she saw Ji Yanning herself, she dodged it, and her hand was stretched out in the air, a little stunned, and she didn't go back for a while.
"Yan Ning. A man's voice called Shen Qingyi back to his senses.
Shen Qingyi looked over, and just saw that Rong Che's face was already a little sinky, and he withdrew his hand in a sneer.
Ji Yanning walked down from the side, stepped down the stairs, and came to Rong Che's side: "Why did you come here?"
Rong Che looked at Ji Yanning, his gaze immediately softened, and said, "Something stumbled just now. ”
Ji Yanning said: "If you don't come again, I'm going to go home, and the things I want to buy today are almost the same." ”
Listening to Ji Yanning's words, Rong Che said: "Okay, there are too many people on this street, it's better not to come out and crowd in the crowd, it's not good if you accidentally bump into it." Let's go to the palace for a while. ”
Ji Yanning nodded and did not refuse.
Seeing Ji Yanning and Rong Che's figures disappear into the crowd like this, Shen Qingyi's face was not much better.
It's his own passion.
Miss Ming Ming Ji and King Xuan are also very good together.
"Why don't Qingyi go up?" A voice came, Shen Qingyi looked over, it was his friend from the same teacher, that person didn't know what had just happened, seeing him here, he stepped forward and said, "Let's go, Mr. Jingyuan is estimated to have been waiting for a long time." ”
Only then did Shen Qingyi come back to his senses and follow his friend in the direction of the second floor.
Because the streets of Chang'an have been extremely lively for the past two days, in some bustling trading streets, it has been ordered to prohibit horse-drawn carriages from passing through, and Rong Che took Ji Yanning's hand and slowly walked through the crowd.
This feeling is very strange, the palm of his hand has his temperature, and he is carried through the crowd by Rong Che like this, Ji Yanning seems to feel that there are only two of them in the whole world, and the other people are nothing more than inconspicuous passers-by in this vast sea of people.
Someone squeezed over, and Rong Che protected Ji Yanning in his arms.
It didn't take long to get out of the street that was too prosperous but awe-inspiring, found the location of the carriage, and slowly let the carriage go in the direction of the Xuan Wangfu.
Rong Che asked, "Why did you meet Shen Qingyi again just now?"
Feeling that this person is haunted, always surrounding Ji Yanning, Rong Che feels that this person is really an eyesore.
Listening to Rong Che's sour question, Ji Yanning chuckled, raised his eyebrows lightly, and said, "It's probably fate, you can always meet inadvertently." ”
Rong Che immediately said when he heard this: "What fate, it must be that his dead face always appears by your side, and when you see him in the future, you will hide as far as you want." ”
"Shen Gongzi is not such a person. Ji Yanning couldn't cry or laugh.
Hearing Ji Yanning help Shen Qingyi speak, Rong Che looked aggrieved.
Ji Yanning hurriedly said: "Okay, just listen to you, if I see him again in the future, can I hide as far as I want?"
Rong Che nodded and said, "And that Jing Yuan too, you were so familiar with each other before, if you get too close, he may find out your identity." ”
This was said very much for Ji Yanning's sake.
Ji Yanning was slightly stunned, but still nodded obediently, otherwise he was afraid that this vinegar jar would explode.
