Some nights can be very long and difficult for some people.

Like tonight, like tonight's calm.

Her eyes were wide open, looking out the window at the dark night, looking forward to the dawn.

But I don't know what to do when it's dawn.

Suddenly, there was a gentle tear from the window next to the temple door.

Calmly looked through the gap in the bed tent, only to see a puff of smoke drifting in from the window lattice, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but show some sad smiles.

It seems that her existence has indeed made it difficult for some people to sleep and eat, so that they will do everything possible to harm her life.

She silently watched the smoke drifting into the hall slowly dissipate and sighed.

If it was poisonous smoke, it wouldn't hurt her at all.

If it wasn't poisonous smoke, then she would have to be a little guarded if an assassin came in and wanted her life.

Calmly got up slowly, got out of bed with his clothes on, walked to the outside room, and opened the window of the room.

Kong Lingci and Ruan Meiling slept here, and they couldn't be harmed by this.

She approached the bed where they were sleeping, and the two of them were still breathing steadily, before they were relieved.

She wanted to get out there, out into the courtyard, to meet the Assassin who was going to kill her.

The yard is cooler than the house, and a little cool breeze blows, which makes people feel refreshed.

Calmly walked down the steps, came to the cloister and sat on the railing, looked at the dark bushes shrouded by the night not far away, and laughed: "Come here, come out, the good head is here, come and get it." ”

There was silence behind the bushes, and there was no sound.

Calmly sighed and laughed at his own caution.

This is Renshou Palace, the queen mother's bedroom, it is not easy to put a poisonous smoke, and it is expected that he will not dare to send a killer to do it.

She got up and walked back, and had barely gone up two steps when a sword stabbed diagonally into her chest.

Calmly and subconsciously retreated, but was knocked down by the steps, and fell to the ground all of a sudden, hitting the steps hard, and the sword was about to stab her heart.

Calmly closed his eyes, and a chill passed through his heart.

But her body didn't feel pain, she didn't smell blood, but there was a slight sound of fighting and the slightest sound of the hilt of her sword cutting through the air.

She opened her eyes, only to see a figure in a purple and gold dragon robe pajamas hurrying towards the end of the corridor, disappearing in the blink of an eye, and then turning back after a while.

His snow-white teeth gleamed in the night, and his eyes were as bright as the stars in the sky.

"Slaves and maids see the emperor, thank the emperor for saving his life." Bow calmly.

Emperor Xiao approached, sat down beside her, and grinned: "Thank you to me, if it weren't for me, your life would be at rest." ”

"The grace of saving lives should be repaid by the grass ring." Calm and dumb voice.

"That's not necessary, don't you know a little bit about medicine? The wound on my hand is probably split open again because of the fight just now, and it hurts so much, you can help me take a look. Emperor Xiao stretched out his hand wrapped in silk cloth to calm down.

reacted calmly and violently, jumped up, and exclaimed: "Your Majesty, I will immediately call someone to arrest the assassin." ”

"Sit down, catch some assassin, didn't the assassin be beaten away by me?" Emperor Xiao tugged at her sleeve and ordered her to sit down.

Calm had to sit down, and by the light of the lantern under the eaves, he looked at the palm of Emperor Xiao's outstretched hand.

The silk cloth was soaked with dark red blood, and it was falling down the steps one by one.

Calmly swallowed, stretched out his hand, and carefully untied the silk cloth from his hand.

Seeing his wound, he couldn't help but take a breath of cold air, let out a low snort, and his expression changed.

"It's none of your business, this is my own injury, today this assassin is just a thief, and he can't hurt me half a point." Emperor Xiao smiled.

"Then the emperor deliberately left the assassin's life?" Calmly pulled off a piece of his shirt and wiped his wounds.

Emperor Xiao paused, and slanted the corners of his mouth: "Actually, I don't want to make things too big, make a big fuss, and those old guys in the court should be crooked and embarrassed by the inner guards, saying that the guards are unfavorable, the leader is derelict in his duties, etc., and what kind of accountability and punishment are necessary, it is really annoying." ”

"The emperor cares about the reputation and face of the general." Calm down.

Emperor Xiao shivered in pain because of her movements, and screamed: "You dead girl, do you take the opportunity to take revenge?" I want to die of pain. ”

"The bruise in the wound must be cleaned up, otherwise the weather will be so hot that it will become infected and suppurated, and the whole hand will be useless at that time." Said calmly and slowly, and the strength of his subordinates increased.

Cold sweat broke out on the forehead of the painful Emperor Xiao, and his body trembled slightly.

"Wait a minute, I'll go into the house and get some trauma medicine and potions." Calmly got up and walked towards the house.

Emperor Xiao looked at her back, his face darkened, and he sighed.

After a while, he calmly walked out with a clean silk cloth and some medicine bags and bottles in his hand.

The corners of Emperor Xiao's mouth bloomed with an evil smile: "Calm down, all the technical work in this palace, you are a full master?" In my opinion, except for those who can't be my concubines, you can do the rest.

Isn't Jiang Ming dead? The head of the Imperial Hospital is empty, so it's okay to transfer you to the past and add it. ”

"The emperor laughed, how dare the slave and maid go to the imperial hospital on an errand with this little triangular cat's kung fu, wouldn't he be humiliated." said calmly and quietly, opened the medicine bottle, took the potion inside to clean his wound, and applied medicine,

Emperor Xiao wiped the cold sweat from the headache on his forehead and smiled bitterly: "Calm down, your cliff is revenge, it shouldn't hurt so much, right?" I'm about to faint in pain. ”

"Well, it shouldn't hurt so much, but the black light is blind, and I'm afraid of disturbing the people sleeping in the house, so it's inconvenient to go in and look for anesthetics, so I have to let you endure the pain, I have my own measure, and I won't die." Calmly lowered his head to bandage his wounds, and said in a fearless tone.

Emperor Xiao looked at her face and was stunned for a moment.

Calmly aware of his reaction, he bit his tongue, and when he was doing things, he always forgot about his feelings, forgetting that she was no longer a doctor who saved lives and helped the wounded, but a female historian in the harem of the Great Xia Dynasty.

She treated him as her patient, speaking to him in the voice of a healer, forgetting that he was the monarch of Great Xia, in charge of her life and death.

But the words have been spoken, and there is nothing to do if they can't be taken back.

Emperor Xiao suddenly laughed, smiling very brightly, and did not mean to be angry at all: "Calm down, I finally understand why Sima Nan is fascinated by you."

You woman, bold! In this land, since I ascended the throne and Sima Nan became the general of the Inner Guard, no one dared to speak to us like this.

Although they will admonish with death, they will scold the monarch for being mediocre and the generals for misleading the country, but they are all pretending to be arrogant, if they are allowed to speak to me and Sima Nan in an equal tone, none of these courtiers will dare! ”

Calmly decided to shut up, bandaged him seriously, and said no more words.

Emperor Xiao refused to let her go, cleared his throat, and spoke again: "Calm down, I want to ask you something, you won't refuse?" ”

"The emperor has killed the slaves and maids, how can he ask for advice, just give orders." Calm down.

"You say, who should I choose after this time?" Filial piety.

Calmly shrunk his neck, and felt that his brain began to hurt.

Emperor Xiao urged her to answer.

"Your Majesty, this kind of thing, how can the slave and maid understand, the establishment is a major matter, involving the former dynasty and the harem, the overall situation of the country, the slave and maid are shallow, and they don't know who the emperor should appoint." Calmly replied.

"I have heard too many wise words, I just want to hear the words of a little girl like you who is shallow, but you should tell me to hear it? Just say it in the tone that I just spoke. Emperor Xiao asked stubbornly.

Calmly sighed, feeling that he was really a little pitiful.

It's cold in the heights, this sentence is not for nothing,

To do his role, no matter whether he does it well or badly, loneliness is necessary to endure.

No one can be equal to him, that is, no one dares to make friends with him, the so-called friends are all his subordinates, let him, endure him, but refuse to have a heart-to-heart with him.

"Your Majesty, the slave maid is just a small insight, don't be surprised when you say it, the slave and maid feel that after the emperor is established, it is nothing more than a folk wife, and the family is very important to nature, but according to the slave maid's opinion, it is most important to marry someone you love." He replied calmly and slowly.

Emperor Xiao sighed heavily, his eyes straightened, and his tone was gloomy: "I had a lover, but unfortunately I was killed by Sima Nan, he said that she was a red face and a disaster, because of her, I will become mediocre and unwilling to manage this country with my heart." ”

"The emperor is saying that the husband leads the queen?" Calmly asked.

"I will only love her only one in my life, after Sima Nan killed her, I stabbed that bastard all over his body, but he told me that even if he stabbed him to death, he would never regret it, never beg for mercy, and never say sorry to me.

Isn't he damned? Emperor Xiao said in a dumb voice.

Calm felt that his throat was dry and his heart was tight.

"Should I hate him, should I try to kill him, even if I don't kill him, I should kill the woman he loves?" Emperor Xiao seemed to ask her, and it seemed to be talking to himself.

"But I can't be as ruthless as him, in fact, many times, I want to find a trumped-up charge, kill you, and let him taste the pain of losing his beloved.

But when the time comes to kill you, I will repent and try to save you.

I am such a slut, the husband under the nine springs will hate my weakness and incompetence, I can die, and I dare not face my beloved husband. ”

Emperor Xiao's voice seemed to be crying blood, and he listened calmly and was a little sad.

"Your Majesty, the slave maid just thinks that the general, he may not kill Empress Xiaoduanwen just because of your affection." Said calmly and seriously.

Emperor Xiao clenched his fists throbbing and looked at her with wide eyes: "What do you know?" Did he tell you something? No, there is no so-called truth about this matter, the truth is that he attributed my mediocrity to the poor husband, and let her suffer the past and die for me! ”

"Your Majesty, although the slave maid has not been in the palace for a long time, he has heard others talk about the killing of the queen, according to the slave maid's understanding of Sima Nan, he will never do that kind of beast-like thing." Calm down.

Emperor Xiao chuckled: "How much do you know, he has killed many of my concubines, as long as I favor whomever I want, he will kill whomever I want, I see that your best friend is almost going to be stabbed, I have been a little too fond of her recently." ”
