Chapter Eighty-Seven: Sleeping Together
Wang Zixi changed his clothes, Fu Yu didn't say anything, and sent him outside the gate of the palace all the time, watching him enter the palace. When will the days of such separation come to an end?
Fu Yu also wanted to take Wang Zixi to find a simple place to live a secluded life, but he couldn't let go of the burden on his shoulders too much, he couldn't let go of her so-called responsibilities for Wang Zixi, but he couldn't force Wang Zixi to change anything for him.
Wang Zixi is like a pure and flawless cloud floating in the sky, but he is like the sludge in the mud ditch, this is the difference between the two of them.
The so-called inferiority complex is not only Wang Zixi, Fu Yu also has those inferiority complexes, but compared to those inferiority complexes, what controls his thoughts is the infinite desire to control Wang Zixi. Even though he knew the difference between him and Wang Zixi, he still wanted to keep Wang Zixi by his side.
Fu Yu stood outside the city gate for a long time, until he saw Wang Zixi's figure disappear into the vast night, but he was still reluctant to turn around and leave.
Fu Yu didn't know if Wang Zixi really believed him, but the person hiding behind him was obviously coming at him, and Wang Zixi, Fu Cheng, Song Dusheng, they were all just people who were implicated. If he doesn't act in time now and find out who is behind the scenes, the next person to be injured will be Fu Cheng or Wang Zixi.
After Wang Zixi went back, he still didn't see Fu Cheng return to the palace, he asked his father-in-law who took care of Fu Cheng, and only then did he know that Fu Cheng went to Yunfeng Ganlu Temple to cleanse himself and bathe!
It was a false alarm for him.
He went back to his room, took a brief shower, took off his clothes, and threw them aside.
After taking a shower and changing his clothes, he walked over and picked up the clothes silently when he saw the clothes left in the corner, then turned around and went out of the door, handed the clothes to the palace maid guarding the door, and ordered: "Can you send me to the Huanyi Bureau and let them clean it for me!" ”
The palace maid nodded.
Wang Zixi did not forget to give special advice, and repeatedly advised: "Don't wash this clothes!" ”
The palace maid nodded again and ran quickly towards the Huanyi Bureau.
Wang Zixi then turned back to the room, he smelled the faint aroma in his room, although it was not very pungent, but for people like him who never used spices, this fragrance was still a little too obvious.
"Who is hiding there, come out for me!"
Wang Zixi shouted, and no one responded to the empty room, and there was no response.
Wang Zixi rummaged through his things, and he looked around left and right, and only breathed a sigh of relief when he was sure that there was no one hiding there in the corner.
He lay on the bed, vaguely feeling that someone was staring at him in some corner, which was not a good feeling, and he touched the empty bed beside him.
Then he got up from the bed again, he rummaged left and right, and found a dagger This dagger was given to him by Gu Qing, and the original intention of Gu Qing to give him this dagger was to let him kill Fu Yu directly when Fu Yu threatened his life. Now he had to take out this dagger again to save his life, he felt that someone was eyeing him, the enemy was in the dark, he was in the dark, and he had to do some defensive measures to be peaceful.
He put the dagger under his pillow, and from now on, he had to carry it with him.
After doing all this, he lay on the bed and fell into a dream contentedly.
It's a pity that what I saw in my dream was even more terrifying than in reality.
He dreamed that a pair of hands reached out to him in the darkness and dragged him into a gap in the corner, and he couldn't see the owner of the hands, nor where the man was hiding, but he saw only the bloody hands, and the whole dream was filled with a strange and terrifying atmosphere.
After he was frightened to wake up, he clutched his chest and gasped vigorously, it seems that he has been too anxious recently, so he has such a dream!
Now it was only three watches, and he lay back in bed again, but he tossed and turned, and could not sleep again.
But he vaguely felt that something was wrong, raised his eyes to look at the concubine not far away, but saw that there seemed to be a person sitting on the chaise longue, because it was too dark, the lights in the room were extinguished, he only saw a black figure, he subconsciously turned over and put his hand under the pillow, holding the poisonous dagger, but the person sitting on the chaise longue suddenly stood up and walked towards him.
Wang Zixi pulled out the dagger in fright, and when the man stretched out his hand at him, he held the dagger and suddenly jumped up from the bed: "Don't come here, stay away from me!" ”
The figure was stunned for a moment, and he walked to the table on Wang Zixi's bed, as if he was looking for something, Wang Zixi didn't dare to act rashly, and he still held the dagger tightly in his hand.
The man seemed to have found something, Wang Zixi saw that the man was holding the thing in his hand and began to light a fire, it turned out that the man was looking for a fire fold.
With the flames, Wang Zixi was able to see that person's face clearly, and that person was actually Fu Yu.
The moment he saw Fu Yu, all Wang Zixi's vigilance was relaxed. As if he had been comforted a little, he didn't know where this inexplicable sense of security came from, but he was relieved to see the person in front of him, and then put the dagger in his hand back under the pillow.
"What's wrong? Having a nightmare? Wake up at night and go crazy? ”
Wang Zixi shook his head, he felt that it was necessary for him to tell Fu Yu about the situation of accompanying Fu Cheng to the temple outside the palace that night to check the body.
"Why are you here?" Wang Zixi's tone of voice was vaguely displeased.
"It's not that I'm here, it's not that I'm leaving!" Fu Yu stretched out his hand to wipe the cold sweat that broke out of Wang Zixi's forehead, and sat on the edge of Wang Zixi's bed.
"I didn't expect the guards of the palace to be so loose, I entered the palace in such a grand manner, and no one found out, it seems that I have to send a few secret guards to protect you!"
"No!" Wang Zixi didn't want Fu Yu to do things that paid special attention to him or attracted attention.
"There's something I want to tell you!" Wang Zixi told Fu Yu about going outside the temple to check on Song Dusheng's body that day, including the inexplicable disappearance of the body later, and then Fu Cheng suspected that it was Fu Yu! Of course, all this is just suspicion, because there is no evidence to indicate that Fu Yu did it.
Fu Yu listened very carefully, but his brows furrowed involuntarily.
"You said the wrist is dark red when it's cut?"
Wang Zixi nodded.
Fu Yu was silent again!
"At that time, only Fu Cheng and I found that there was a problem with the body, and before the investigation was clear, we didn't dare to have too much suspicion, so the two of us hurried back to the palace, but the next morning, the guards who went to the temple to pick up the coffin of the body said that the body was gone, from the time we left the temple, until the guards went to the temple to carry the coffin of the body, there was only a gap of four hours, and Fu Cheng naturally regarded me as the No. 1 suspect!"
Fu Yu frowned: "Who received you when you went to the temple?" ”
"It was the abbot of the temple who received us!"
"Host? What does it look like? ”
"It's a very young man!"
Wang Zixi didn't remember very well, but he only remembered that it was a young man, when he saw that man, Wang Zixi also subconsciously sighed, he didn't expect such a young man to be the abbot, that man has a medium appearance, and his shoulders are very broad, as for other special distinguishing characteristics, Wang Zixi can't remember clearly.
"Young man?" Fu Yu clearly remembered that there was only one abbot in his 60s in the temple, where did the young abbot come from?
Fu Yu seemed to understand that when they entered the temple, the person who stole the corpse had already received them disguised as the abbot there, and after they left, the body was transferred by this person.
"What do you think of?" Wang Zixi looked at Fu Yu with a solemn face and asked, "Did you think of something?" ”
Fu Yu shook his head and patted him on the shoulder: "Don't think too much, before this matter is investigated, don't make up your mind too early, let's sleep for a while!" ”
Wang Zixi nodded and lay back on the bed, but when he saw Fu Yu standing beside him, Wang Zixi asked a little embarrassedly, "What are you doing here with me in the middle of the night?" Hurry up and go back, if you don't go back to see it, it's almost dawn! ”
Unexpectedly, Fu Yu had no intention of leaving at all, but sat on the edge of Wang Zixi's bed, and had no intention of leaving at all.
"What are you doing here if you don't leave? Do you want me to drive you back? ”
Fu Yu suddenly smiled: "Ah Xi, you are so ruthless, I am here with you for most of the night and you refuse to let half of the bed, does he give me a rest?" ”
Wang Zixi's face flushed, Fu Yu meant that he wanted to stay here and sleep for the night.
"You'd better go back, after all...... This is the Imperial Palace...... If you're being seen like this now...... Hurry back! ”
"Someone else? Who are you referring to? Is it Fu Cheng? Or Gu Qing? Or are those palace maids and eunuchs outside? ”
Wang Zixi was angry, this guy was deliberately looking for fault and provoking him, he angrily grabbed the clothes on the bedside and threw them at Fu Yu: "Let you go, hurry up!" ”
But Fu Yu saw Wang Zixi throwing clothes at him, but he directly ripped off the quilt beside Wang Zixi, and lay down directly without even taking off his clothes.
"You ......" Wang Zixi didn't know what to say, and looked at Fu Yu lying beside him a little speechless for a while.
"What if I say I won't go?"
Wang Zixi sighed and said helplessly: "Whatever you want, you have to go to court tomorrow!" I don't care about you, so I'll just lend you half a bed to sleep in! ”
Fu Yu was satisfied when he heard him say this, and pulled half of the quilt over himself, and then took the opportunity to hug Wang Zixi and pull him towards himself: "The bed to sleep on is now available, but there is still a lack of someone to warm the quilt for me, or Wang Gongzi, you can reluctantly help me warm the quilt!" ”
"Fu Yu you...... You shameless! Wang Zixi didn't expect Fu Yu, a person who looked so cold, to be so handy when he said such shameless words, but he pretended to be indecent on weekdays, but his heart was pounding by these sentences or two.
