Volume 1: Capturing the King's Heart Chapter 001: Sleeping Beauty

Next Chapter

Eastern Qin Imperial Palace

In the inner hall of the splendid Jianzhang Palace, King Qin closed his eyes tightly and lay quietly on the arched dragon bed.

The bright yellow veil floated slightly, and King Qin's handsome and perfect, but extremely pale face appeared.

"Your Majesty, when will he wake up?" The young prime minister in a lotus blue robe, his deep and dark eyes were full of worry.

"In the past three years, in order to be able to reincarnate Miss Mu, Your Majesty has not only been busy with state affairs and enhancing the national strength of the Qin State, but also never dared to slack off in the practice of secret arts.

Dressed in a black robe, the white-haired old national teacher had a long, snow-white beard, and a smile that could not be concealed at the corner of his mouth.

"Brother Shangguan, don't play dumb riddles with your little brother, what I am most concerned about now is how long Your Majesty will sleep."

"You don't know how much headache it is to deal with those old stubborns who are full of brains and careless in the court."

"It's not easy, old way?" Shangguan Guoshi's small eyes narrowed into a slit because of a wicked smile.

"The old way!" The young prime minister held his forehead with his right hand, and said with a very painful expression: "If this continues, I Lou Xi probably won't even be able to marry a daughter-in-law." ”

"Little brother Lou Xi, isn't it good to be His Majesty's man?"

Shangguan Guoshi patted Lou Xi on the shoulder, that bright smile, not to mention how underdrawn.

"Brother Shangguan, if we don't work together, you will be bigger, and I will be small." The corners of Lou Xi's lips were slightly raised, not to be outdone.

"If Your Majesty is willing, of course the old man will not object."

"Old is not ashamed, brazen!"

What is it, I can't breathe, it's so uncomfortable, it's really uncomfortable.

In a daze, my hands instinctively crushed the object on my body and slowly pushed it away.

The moment I opened my eyes, I was startled, the thing that crushed me was not a thing, it was, it was the corpse of a man, and even his face was gradually festering, and he couldn't distinguish his appearance.

Fortunately, my mental endurance is not so bad.

At this moment, if you change to those modern daughters.

Yang or these boudoir ladies in ancient times, I think, it's strange not to be scared to death.

I staggered to my feet and shook the dust off my pink skirt.

When the palm of my hand touched the slippery feeling on my clothes, my heart couldn't help but tremble.

The material of this dress is not something that ordinary people can wear.

Not to mention being able to wear it on me.

I squinted at the piles of corpses beside me, at the bits and pieces of white bones that could be seen everywhere in the mass graves.

I don't know if I should be scared or confused.

"Where is this? In modern times, shouldn't this place exist? ”

I wondered in my heart, even if there were, it was probably some kind of barren mountains and mountains where chickens don't lay eggs and birds don't.

Stretching out my hand, through the moonlight, I could see my hands clearly, they were so long, and yet they were so dirty.

Even on the fingernails, there are stains of other people's blood.

My stomach churned and I almost vomited.

"It's not my hands, what the hell is going on, is it a dream again, but this time my intuition tells me that it is definitely not a dream."

Crossing, in my mind, a rather cliché thought flashed.

"Forget it, anyway, find a clean place first, rest comfortably, and wait for dawn, and then find someone to ask, see where this is?"

Step by step, after walking out of the mass grave, I found a place with a river by the moonlight.

The moment I squatted down, I saw a delicate goose egg face reflected in the water, beautiful eyes like a deep pool, delicate spring flowers, just like the shyness of the orchid.

Beauty is simply the beauty of the country and the city.

Once upon a time, I always boasted that I was naturally beautiful and as clear as a hibiscus, but now, compared to this face, my former appearance can be described as a small family.

After washing my face, I found a big tree and fell asleep with my head upside down.

At the moment, I am still fantasizing in my heart, maybe this is really just a dream, and when I wake up, I can live that peaceful but warm life again.

It's just that fantasy is beautiful, reality is cruel.

The next morning, before I could open my eyes, I felt the glare of the sun, and I knew that this proved that the horrible picture of last night was real.

I crossed over, and when my fantasy became reality, I wasn't as happy as I imagined.

However, if things can't be changed, what can I do but move forward, maybe my parents are right, what I hold in my hand may be seized by the enemy at any time.

But life is still there, and that is the greatest gift from God to us.

With optimism, I tried to make myself smile.

"Gollum." Hey, hungry, it's time to find something to eat?

Actually, my sense of direction is really bad, just like now, after walking all morning, my whole body is still stuck in the lush forest, and there is no figure in sight.

I'm hungry and cold right now.

"Oh my God, am I going to starve to death in this strange time and space?" I craned my neck and raised my head to the sky and wailed:

"I don't have a boyfriend yet, I haven't been in a relationship yet, I don't want to die yet!"

"Second cousin, how long will it take for us to enter the city?" A delicate female voice and the sound of horses' hooves came to my ears, and I felt a burst of excitement in my heart.

Heaven will not kill me, I finally don't have to starve to death.

I think at this moment, my tears are about to fall with excitement.

"A quarter of an hour." A cold, emotionless, but very crisp and pleasant voice came.

They are the straw for my survival, and at this moment, there is only one thought in my mind.

"Help, help!"
