The emperor entered the study, and Gonggong Jia waited beside him, asked people to fetch new candles, and broke them in front of the emperor to check them, and finally put half of the candle into the palace lamp.
Half of the candle burned less than three watches, so it had to be replaced by Father-in-law Jia in the middle.
After arranging everything, Father-in-law Jia respectfully retreated and stayed outside the study.
There was a sudden silence in the study.
Su Baitong and the others could only hear the sound of the emperor turning the fold behind the screen.
As time passed, Zhou Yuan's envoy became more and more nervous, and from time to time he raised his eyes to look at the scarlet king Ling Xiaotian and Su Baitong.
Originally, he was worried that Princess Scarlet was young and couldn't stand it for such a long time, but he didn't expect that now it seems that he is the most unbearable person.
The sound of dripping continued to sound, and Zhou Yuan's envoy craned his neck and peeked outside through the gap in the jade screen.
The emperor sat behind the table, still criticizing the folds, but compared with usual, he seemed a little absent-minded.
When he saw the son, the emperor yawned and stood up.
Zhou Yuan's heart couldn't help but feel relieved, it seems that the black hand behind the scenes will not come tonight......
He was thinking about it when he suddenly smelled a strange scent.
Before he could figure out where the fragrance came from, Su Baitong had already quickly covered her mouth and nose with her sleeve, and at the same time took out a piece of incense cake from her incense box, because it was too late to light it, she directly broke off a small piece from the incense cake and pinched it into crumbs.
The Emperor suddenly stopped moving.
Zhou Yuan's envoy also covered his mouth and nose in the same way as Su Baitong, but behind the sleeves, his mouth was open.
Because he saw the emperor suddenly turn around, walk slowly towards the window, and then reach out and open the window......
It was pitch black outside, and in the darkness, a pair of hands stretched out out of thin air and handed a candle to the emperor.
Because the emperor had his back to them, they could not see the expression on the emperor's face.
Zhou Yuan screamed out in danger.
As if in a dream, the Emperor took the candle, turned slowly, and walked to the table......
Su Baitong pushed Ling Xiaotian.
Ling Xiaotian was also shocked by this scene just now, but now that he came to his senses, he got up and rushed out.
The hands outside the window had retracted by this time.
Ling Xiaotian saw that the hand was about to disappear, and an invisible force suddenly burst out of his eyes, and the hand couldn't help but freeze in mid-air.
Ling Xiaotian jumped out of the window.
When he came outside, he found that the hand had not disappeared just now, but someone was lying on the eaves, so it looked as if a pair of hands had come in out of thin air.
As soon as the short pause was over, the man on the eaves jumped up with a swoop, and the connection jumped over the roof on the side.
Ling Xiaotian also picked up his breath and kept up, chasing all the way.
The more I chase it, the more suspicious I become.
The figure looked black from behind, thin and small, and the height of a child......
"Stop!" Ling Xiaotian snorted.
But the man did not stop at all, and jumped up and down nimbly, and soon got into the garden in front of him.
Further on, there was the harem, and Ling Xiaotian had to stop.
He took out the wooden ball that Su Baitong gave him and threw it at the villain.
The wooden ball hit the man's back, and the countless small holes that were covered with tissue paper cracked at once, and the incense powder in the ball spilled out, splashing the man's body.
By the time Ling Xiaotian stepped forward to pick up the fallen wooden ball, the figure had already jumped into the garden of the harem.
Ling Xiaotian had to return empty-handed.
During the time he was away, it was like a nightmare for the envoy of the Zhou Academy.
He saw with his own eyes that the emperor was like a dream, and with wide eyes, he came to the table, opened the shade of the palace lamp, took out the candle from it, and prepared to light another ......
Su Baitong quickly walked out and sprinkled the crumbs of the crushed incense cake in his hand on the flame of the candle.
With a "sting", the flame jumped and burst into a faint fragrance.
The Emperor paused, then blinked.
He saw Su Baitong and Zhou Yuan Envoy standing in front of him.
Zhou Yuan's mouth was half open, as if he had seen a ghost.
"What's the matter...... "The Emperor asked.
"The Emperor...... The emperor ...... "The envoy of the Zhou court felt that his tongue was about to be knotted, and he couldn't believe what he had just seen, and the person who changed the candle mixed with mandala incense was none other than the emperor himself."
Su Baitong had already retreated into the distance at this time, standing there quietly, looking at the emperor's hand.
The Emperor looked down, only to find that he had two candles in his hands, one of which was still on fire.
"It's ......"
"This is the reason why the emperor has mandala incense in his body." Su Baitong hung his head and said.
The Emperor stared at the candle in his hand, "This...... How could this be......" He had no memory of what he had just done.
The envoy of the Zhou court took the candle from the emperor's hand tremblingly, put the originally lit one back into the palace lamp, and broke the other one from the middle.
The inside gives off the aroma of mandala incense.
The envoy of the Zhou Yuan tried his best to remain calm, and told the scene he had just seen with Su Baitong, and the emperor sat there as if listening to a book from heaven.
"Do you see anyone standing outside the window?" The emperor asked.
Zhou Yuan Envoy shook his head, "Wei Chen only saw a pair of black hands. ”
"Black?" The Emperor's eyes were full of surprise.
"Thin and withered ......," Zhou Yuan recalled, "and it came out of mid-air." ”
In other words, the man was not standing on the ground at all.
"So...... The other party has martial arts in his body......"
"It should be, the Scarlet King has chased him out."
The Emperor fell silent, his eyes fixed on the candle with mandala incense on the table.
Who harmed him?
Soon, Ling Xiaotian returned to the study.
"Didn't catch it?" Zhou Yuan asked worriedly.
Ling Xiaotian shook his head, "That person has fled into the harem, and Erchen doesn't dare to enter rashly." ”
The harem is the emperor's territory, and all the women in it belong to the emperor, even if he is the prince, he can't break in in the middle of the night.
"Did you see the man?" The emperor asked.
“…… It was too dark to really see, and from the physical shape, the man looked like a child......"
"Is it really a child?" Zhou Yuan's eyes glared in surprise.
It is said that this is the palace Ouchi, how can there be children running around, and the martial arts are so high that even the Scarlet King can't catch up.
"It's just that he looks like a child, maybe it's just that he's born skinny." Ling Xiaotian muttered, "Although I didn't catch him, Erchen hit him with an incense ball. ”
"What incense balls?" The emperor asked.
Su Baitong opened his mouth and said: "It is a special spice made by the courtier, if it is on the body, even if it is washed within three days, the smell of the spice cannot be removed, so that you can find the person along the fragrance." ”
"...... in three days" The emperor narrowed his eyes, and a coldness burst out in his eyes.
