It was night, and the mandarin duck was lying in bed, tossing and turning with his eyes wide open, unable to sleep no matter what. The hurried glimpse in the carriage kept replaying in her mind, and she never wanted to believe that it was her own delusion, or that she had mistaken the wrong person.

The mandarin duck was sure that what she saw was indeed a bright yellow dragon robe, which was a dress that only Xia Yuan, who became the emperor, was qualified to wear.

Why is Obuchi here? Just like Chu Huai said, the mandarin duck almost had to convince himself when he heard his words, like Xia Yuan, the more he was in a high position, the more things he had to take care of, and at the same time, how could he have leisure time to leave the imperial city and come to this remote coastal town?

Suddenly, her mind flashed through the conversation between the two during the day:

"Recently, there has been a lot of chaos near the South China Sea, which has attracted the attention of the emperor."

So could Xiao Yuan be worried about the affairs of the South China Sea, so he drove here in person to quell the chaos in the South China Sea?

Thinking of this, the mandarin duck sat up from the bed in an instant, if this is really the case, then everything makes sense! Xia Yuan's appearance here is not accidental.

Go find him! This thought kept shouting in the mandarin duck's mind, and her body moved involuntarily, but the moment she got out of bed, she remembered what Chu Huai had said to her: There will be a chance to see him in the future.

Just as she was about to open the door, she sat back on the edge of the bed, Master was right, she had waited for him for so many years, so why rush to this time?

"But don't you really want to see him?"

An ethereal voice suddenly entered her ears, she was startled, and immediately became vigilant: "Who is it?" Who's talking? ”

The mandarin duck looked around, she was obviously the only one in the whole room, why was there any other sound?

Maybe it's auditory hallucinations, after all, too many things have happened during this time, and I always can't sleep well at night. At least, that's how the mandarin duck comforted himself.

"I'm not your illusion." This voice sounded in the mandarin duck's ears again, "I am the deepest ** in your heart, you really want to see him, right?" If you want to see it, you can see it, the reason why you can't get his heart is because you have been suppressing your own ** and doing what you want to do, only in this way can you really be yourself, don't blindly give in, this will make you nothing, you should take back everything that should belong to you. ”

"Really...... Is that so? Is this really what you have in mind? The mandarin duck was a little unbelievable, did he really have such a thought for a moment?

"Go find him, go see him, get him back."

But what should I say when I see him? In what capacity should I stand before him? ”

"Have you forgotten that Chu Huai has always carried a small bottle of medicine on his body, so if he still used it on you?"

"On me?"

"That's right, it can make people lose their consciousness for a period of time, become a puppet of the druggger, obediently listen to the druggger's words, during this period, if the drugged person is hinted at, then he will carve this matter into his subconscious, even after waking up, he will feel that this matter is taken for granted."

"No wonder when I first met Master, I could still call out his name even though his face was so unfamiliar." The mandarin duck muttered quietly at first, and then reacted, "That is to say, as long as you get the medicine from the master's body, use it on Xiao Yuan's body, and then give him a hint, in fact, the person he really likes is me, so that Xiao Yuan will really belong to me?" ”

"That's right."

"I'll go find Master now." As soon as the mandarin duck was about to get up, he was stopped by the voice in his heart.

"By no means, if you ask Chu Huai directly, he will definitely not hand over the medicine to you."

"So what?"

"Wouldn't it be nice to wait until he was asleep and then secretly bring the medicine?"

The mandarin duck lay back on the bed, looked out the window at the night, and quietly waited for time to pass.

It is estimated that by the time of the third watch, it will be even quieter outside the house. The mandarin duck quietly got up and went out, and the cat entered the night.

She tried her best to slow down, leaned against the wall, and approached Chu Huai's room, looking in from the window, it was already dark in the room, and Chu Huai should have fallen asleep after thinking about it so late.

Just as she was about to stretch out her hand to push open the door, a cold voice sounded behind her: "Mandarin duck girl, it's so late, what are you doing at the door of Lord Chu Gu's house?" ”

The mandarin duck was so frightened that she froze in place, her back was soon soaked in cold sweat, she kept the posture of just reaching out, her heartbeat was constantly accelerating, and her brain became blank for a moment, what to do, to be discovered.

She kept taking deep breaths, trying to make herself look calmer, and after a moment of silence, the mandarin duck turned around stiffly and smiled awkwardly at Shu Shan: "Master Shu, it's so late, you haven't slept yet." ”

At this moment, the mandarin duck saw that Shu Shan's face no longer had the smile that had been on his lips during the day, but was replaced by a cold and expressionless face, and those peach blossom eyes seemed to be about to suck the mandarin duck's soul away.

Terror.

"I have nothing to do, I want to have a good time with the master of Chu Gu." Shu Shan held the staff in his hand, standing with his back to the moonlight, his tall body, and the shadow cast on his face, made the mandarin duck feel a constant chill in his back.

Afraid.

"I ...... I also couldn't sleep in the middle of the night, and I wanted to come and talk to Master. The mandarin duck could even feel that his voice was constantly trembling.

Why is he so afraid of the person in front of him?

Shu Shan didn't speak, just kept staring at the mandarin duck's face, and for a moment, she even felt that the thoughts in her heart had already been seen through.

"That...... Master Forgiveness, let's talk, I'...... I won't disturb you, but I'll go back to the room and rest. After speaking, the mandarin duck used all his strength, quickly ran away from Shu Shan's field of vision, returned to his room, and kept panting against the door, are the people in the Western Regions so scary?

Shu Shan stood in place again, looking in the direction of the mandarin duck running away for a long time, and then knocked on Chu Huai's door.

"Lord Chugu, I know you didn't sleep."

After a while, the door quietly opened a small crack, and Chu Huai only showed one eye: "So what." ”

"Xiao Sheng saw that the Mandarin Duck girl seemed to want to sneak into your house."

"I hear you." Chu Huai's voice was very calm, he had long expected that one day, the mandarin duck would come to him to look for the small medicine bottle.

"Then why did you let her do anything?"

"If she wants to get in, let her in, I don't have what she wants." Chu Huai looked down at the white porcelain vial in her hand, "How can this thing be as convenient as she thought." ”

"Since this is just a misunderstanding, it is not good for Xiaosheng to continue to stay, it is late, the master of Chu Gu is resting, and Xiaosheng is leaving."

"Why don't you come in and have a drink? This is what Master Forgiveness said. ”

"Chu Gu Lord's kindness Xiaosheng understands it, Xiaosheng just said casually in front of the mandarin duck girl, I still need to hurry tomorrow morning, and it is really inconvenient to drink."

The sound of the bells resounded throughout the night, fading away and disappearing.
