Chapter 179: Waking up in the middle of the night
The night gradually thickened, and the Qinghe Hall was so quiet as if nothing had happened, Da Zhuang and Yu Xi were asleep respectively, Zhuge Ang was still talking drunk, and Chen Zhixuan was rarely sleeping so soundly.
But when Jin Guan slept until midnight, he suddenly woke up, and then he couldn't sleep again.
He got up from the bed, and when he walked to the place where Hua Chao was sleeping, he saw her kick the quilt to the ground again, shook his head, and then walked over to pick up the quilt for her, and then put it back on her.
"The quilt is gone, and you don't feel cold, what a fool!" Sitting on the side, Jin Guan reached out and gently took the hair that Hua Chao was messily covering his face and opened it behind his head, looked at her sleeping face, and whispered: "Your Highness has never cared so much about a woman in your life, you, can't you let me worry? Don't let you get involved in this matter, but you just want to follow yourself, in case something happens to you, what should I do to protect you!"
He said to himself, but Hua Chao was so asleep that he couldn't hear his words at all. But perhaps sensing the temperature of Jinguan's palm, she moved slightly, then turned over and continued to fall asleep. After Jinguan finished her quilt again, he shook his head, smiled, and then got up and left.
Because he couldn't sleep, he went out of the room and came to the garden, and as he walked, he came to the rockery where he first saw the flower dynasty.
The picture of the first time he saw Hua Chao instantly appeared in his mind, when she was ignorant of the world, and pointed to her nose suspiciously and asked him if he was good-looking, which really made people laugh.
Jin Guan stood alone on the edge of the pond, and recalled the scene of the night when the flower dynasty raised his face from the pond.
At that time, she was as pure as a lotus flower, which made people obsessed.
To be honest, Jin Guan didn't know if it was because of the first glance he already had a different kind of affection for Hua Chao, and later wanted to borrow Hua Chao to improve his spiritual power, maybe it was just an excuse. Now that I think about it, Jin Guan himself is a little confused.
However, what he could be sure of was that for him, Hua Chao was no longer a tool to enhance his spiritual power. She is already an irreplaceable existence in his heart, and a special place in his heart can only be her, and no one else can do it.
He thought that maybe this was a kind of certainty that "she had to be"!
These jumbled thoughts always pop up when he is alone, disturbing his mind and making him start to be a little indecisive. The same was true when the order was given to Song Yuan.
He calls this change maturity, and this maturity is a tribute to his former self and a gift to congratulate his present self. In any case, he has changed, and he is no longer the stubborn and unbearable His Highness of the Great Xi Dynasty in the past. He gradually got what he should look like as a member of the royal family, maybe this kind of appearance is what others can see.
Thinking of these messy things, Jin Guan couldn't help but sigh, looked at the calm pool and sighed: "His Royal Highness has actually begun to think about it, how can this be good, can you be an idle person in the future......, and travel all over the world!"
Talking to himself, he threw a stone he had just picked up into the pool of water, and after making a small splash, the stone sank to the surface of the water and disappeared, and the surface of the water returned to calm from time to time, as if nothing had happened.
After wandering around for a while, Jin Guan felt a sudden drowsiness, so he turned around and wanted to go back to sleep for a while.
"Ahh
"Is it a hallucination?" he shook his head in confusion, thinking that he must have been thinking too much and causing auditory hallucinations, so he shook his head and continued walking towards the dormitory. But as soon as he raised his foot, another miserable cry came, and this time, Jin Guan heard clearly which direction the sound came from.
Following the voice, Jin Guan quickly walked over there.
In the process of galloping, several more such screams were heard.
And this sound not only alarmed the Jinguan, but also alarmed the people of the guards, so when the Jinguan arrived at the scene, the guards had already surrounded the scene. The arrival of the Jinguan made the deputy commander of the Guards a little surprised, but because he received a secret order to restore the freedom of movement of the Jinguan, he did not dare to stop the Jinguan.
Jin Guan came inside through the layers of surrounded soldiers, only to find that in the outer encirclement of the third layer, there were more than a dozen corpses of maids, and the death and wounds of each corpse were almost the same.
It's hard not to wonder about this unusual situation.
Jin Guan was about to walk to the corpse to take a closer look, but was stopped by the deputy commander, "Your Highness, these maids are dying strangely, Your Highness It's better not to get close!"
Jin Guan didn't care, and said: "If Your Highness doesn't take a closer look, how can you know how they died!"
"Your Highness, your subordinates think it's better not to get close!"
"I know that you are worried about Your Highness, I have received your wishes, but now, Your Highness is doing an extremely important matter, and the stakes are very high, so no one should stop you. ”
As Jin Guan spoke, his tone gradually intensified, and finally it almost became a commanding tone. But this didn't seem to be able to deter the deputy commander, who had always been tenacious, because he had already grabbed Jinguan's wrist with his hands, and showed a vicious look that seemed to be about to go into battle to kill the enemy, which made Jinguan a little overwhelmed.
What kind of existence the guards are, Jin Guan is still clear. They have always only obeyed the orders of Emperor Xi and Song Yuanzhi, but this does not seem to be entirely correct, because in fact, they are acting on the orders of the token of the guards, because this token is only one piece, and it is with Song Yuanzhi. Therefore, the guards are almost Song Yuanzhi's dispatch, and the people who can dispatch Song Yuanzhi are not the second person except for Emperor Xi, so to sum up, as for Song Yuanzhi and Emperor Xi, they can dispatch the guards.
Therefore, if Jin Guan wanted to order this deputy commander not to stop him, it was simply impossible. He naturally understood this truth, so he began to change his method, and said with a smile: "It's okay if you don't let me see it, then you can always tell me, what are you going to do with these corpses, right?"
"These maids died inexplicably, in order to prevent strange phenomena, they plan to be cremated immediately to prevent future troubles!"
The deputy commander told Jin Guan truthfully, but Jin Guan showed a strange look, and judging from his face, he was very dissatisfied with this answer.
