Shengshang blinked vigorously.

It was too dark all around, and he was in turmoil, and Sun Rui's cold counting voice kept drilling into his head from his ears, making the saint unable to return to his senses for a long time.

Is he awake, or is he still in a dream?

Shengshang kicked his leg irritably, his knee brushed Tao Zhaoyi's leg, and he subconsciously reached out and grabbed the wrist of the person next to him.

It was warm and pulsed, which made the saint breathe a sigh of relief.

He was awake because his nightmares were terriblely cold except when the fire was raging.

Tao Zhaoyi was in pain in her sleep, and a low groan overflowed from the corner of her lips.

The saint turned his head to look at her, his eyes slightly adjusted to the darkness, and he could see some outlines, but he couldn't see clearly.

Most of Tao Zhaoyi's face was covered by long hair, motionless.

The saint called her name softly, but Tao Zhaoyi did not respond, he thought, probably he was mistaken, the person next to him was sleeping soundly and was not awakened.

As the day dawned, the saint hardly slept again, and when it was time to get up, he let the attendants in, and got up with his clothes on.

Tao Zhaoyi also hurriedly got up and served the saint to wash up and change into court clothes.

Sheng Shang lowered his eyes to look at the woman who was half-kneeling in front of him to arrange his belt, and his heart moved, and asked, "How did you sleep last night?" ”

Tao Zhaoyi's movements paused, and when she looked up, she smiled: "The concubine sleeps very deeply. ”

"It seems so," the saint's tone was flat, faint, and he couldn't hear the emotion, "I called you in the middle of the night, and you didn't wake up." ”

Tao Zhaoyi's smile paused on his face, and the next moment he lowered his head and pleaded softly.

"I don't blame you," the saint helped her, "I went to the court, and in the afternoon you still had someone bring a bowl of sweet soup to the imperial study." ”

Tao Zhaoyi sent the holy car to him, and when he came back, he went straight to the couch, withdrew the hands of the people who were waiting, and opened his eyes in a daze.

Actually, she heard it.

She didn't sleep so deeply, and the low dream sound of the saint was enough to wake her up, but at that time, the person was not awake, and the saint's speech in the dream was also blurred, and she couldn't hear the content clearly.

In the end, he forced himself to be clearer, and he also heard a few words, stringing them back and forth, as if he was scolding Sun Rui.

But she couldn't tell why she was scolded, whether it was a moment of anger, deep responsibility for love, or cold words.

Therefore, when the saint woke up, she didn't dare to move, knowing that the saint was calling her, she didn't make a sound.

Tao Zhaoyi also understands the saint's character, and a few words in her dreams, the saint won't want her to hear them.

Then she acted as if she hadn't heard anything.

It's just that the saint's tentative words just now made her heart beat a drum, and she wasn't sure if she was exposed.

However, even if the saint is suspicious, as long as she honestly pretends not to know, the saint will not cold her for such a trivial matter......

On the other hand, the saint walked quickly to the Jinluan Palace.

Halfway through, I met two little palace maids who were sweeping the imperial garden, and I didn't know what they were laughing at, so I didn't notice that the royal car was approaching until Han Gonggong coughed heavily and reminded them, and the two of them looked over and immediately fell to their knees in fright.

The saint didn't pay attention to them, and when he passed by, he caught a glimpse of their trembling figures, and his steps paused.

In the middle of the night, he himself was still immersed in nightmares, and it was only at this moment that he remembered that when he grabbed Tao Zhaoyi's wrist, her pulse was far faster than that of a sleeping person.

She's awake!

She's been pretending to be asleep!

The saint was extremely depressed, and his steps became faster and faster.

At this court meeting, the close ministers all noticed something, and the mood of the saint today was much worse than a few days ago.

The spirit of the previous few days was completely gone, and his face was solemn, as if he had suddenly returned to the time when the situation of the Eastern Foreign War was undecided.

The courtiers don't know why, but the princes who are better informed about the situation in the harem have a plan.

Sun Zhen was used to it, and when he entered the Wenying Hall with his hands behind his back, he turned his head and suddenly said to Sun Xuan: "Why is Zhaoyi Niangniang so imprudent? ”

Sun Xuan glared at Sun Zhen and didn't say anything.

couldn't hold it on his lips, but he was still very concerned about the situation of his mother and concubine, and after Sun Xuan was disbanded, he went to Tao Zhaoyi's palace.

"Father and Emperor are not very happy to look up today...... "Sun Xuan didn't whitewash, and asked directly, there is nothing that can't be said between the two of them about the situation related to the saint.

Tao Zhaoyi pursed her lips, sent people away, and only explained to Sun Xuan in a low voice.

After hearing this, Sun Xuan pondered for a while and said, "It's probably because of a bad dream that I got angry." But it's not your ...... to blame."

"I was pretending to ......be asleep," Tao Zhaoyi muttered, "What if I didn't pretend to be asleep?" After listening to two or three sentences, I want to say that I understand, I am still in the clouds, this thing is really ...... If I really understood and he was annoyed, I wouldn't have lost so much. ”

Sun Xuan comforted: "If you think so, my father would have such a dream, which proves that our previous guess was not wrong, and he was actually dissatisfied with Sun Rui in his heart." ”

"It's good to be dissatisfied!" Tao Zhaoyi took a deep breath, looked at his son and said, "The outstanding Sun Rui is out, my son has a better chance, even if we guess that he likes Sun Zhen, but it is a straw bag, far inferior to you, as long as your father does not alienate me, I can help you speak, and I can make a stumbling block for others." ”

Sun Xuan smiled and said, "My son is still the same sentence, the situation is unclear, let's go cautiously, so as not to follow other people's ways and be used as guns." ”

The mother and son talked for a while, and ordered someone to set the table for dinner.

In the imperial study, the saint had just woken up from a nap.

Father-in-law Han asked people to bring sweet soup.

When it was sent in the afternoon, the saint happened to sleep, and Gonggong Han warmed it first, and it was not cold at this time.

After the saint used it, Han Gonggong cleaned up and said, "You didn't rest well yesterday?" You haven't slept in the afternoon in days......"

Shengshang said: "I haven't rested in the harem for a while, and I haven't slept for a while." ”

Han Gong said fairly: "Do you want to ask the imperial doctor to take a look?" You've been babbling ......"

"I'm talking in my sleep?" The saint's tone sank, "What did I say?" ”

Han Gonggong said respectfully: "The slave stood far away, only heard the movement, and never heard it clearly. The next time the minions are waiting for you? ”

"Next time?" The saint asked rhetorically.

Han Gong said fairly: "In recent months, you have often dreamed of ......"

The saint's face became more and more ugly: "What did you say?" ”

Gonggong Han shook his head.

The saint didn't ask, he hadn't asked Gonggong Han to wait near him when he was sleeping, if he hadn't improved a few days ago, he wouldn't have stayed with Tao Zhaoyi yesterday.

What about last night, did he also talk in his sleep?

Tao Zhaoyi was beside him, did she hear it clearly?

She must have heard it, and if not, why pretend to be asleep?

Although the saint doesn't know the content of the dream words, there are only so many words left in that kind of dream.

In his dream, he thundered at the counting Sun Rui, and he took the young Sun Zhen and told the stone statue that this son was his favorite and his choice!

Over and over again!
