"The imperial concubine."
Aunt Tongyun's voice came from outside the door. Nanyan sat at the table, folded up the papers in her hand, and walked over to open the door.
Aunt Tongyun stood outside the door and said, "Your Majesty, you really haven't slept yet?"
"Um."
Nan Yan nodded and said, "Why is aunt here again? Didn't you go down to rest?"
Aunt Tongyun said: "The person who was patrolling just now passed by the door and said that he saw the lights in the empress's room were still on. He was worried, so he asked the slaves to come and have a look."
"Oh, they are careful."
"This move is a big deal, of course they have to be careful."
Aunt Tongyun said, and took a look into the room, the room was empty, only a light was on on the table, it was obvious that Nanyan was sitting by the table just now, but there was not even a cup of tea on the table.
Aunt Tongyun said softly: "Didn't the empress have already fallen asleep, why—"
"Oh, I couldn't sleep, so I got up and sat down."
"Your Majesty, we have to leave early tomorrow morning. Your Majesty should not go to bed too late, or your spirits will be bad - you have to go to the altar to offer sacrifices tomorrow. Besides, it's Her Royal Highness's birthday again."
"Well, I see."
Nan Yan nodded calmly, and said, "I'll go to sleep right away, aunt, go down and rest too."
"Yes, the servant will leave."
Aunt Tongyun turned around and left.
Seeing her back slowly disappearing into the night, Nan Yan was silent for a while, and then slowly closed the door.
The hot air in the room quickly gathered again, dispelling the cold wind and chill that came in when the door was just opened.
But Nanyan's hands were as cold as ice.
After closing the door, she leaned her back against the door again and stood there for a while before letting herself breathe a sigh of relief and walking slowly to the table.
From the sleeve, he took out the folded paper.
In fact, there are only a few words on it.
However, just these few words are like thunder in winter, which is obviously impossible to appear, but once it appears, it will change the color of the world and darken the sun and the moon.
She lowered her head again and looked at those words, only to feel that those words seemed to have temperature, the fiery temperature almost scalded her eyes.
After a long silence, Nan Yan slowly brought the piece of paper to the candlestick.
The flames fluttered, and the paper was ignited all at once.
Soon, the piece of paper turned into a flame in his hand, and the words on it gradually disappeared into the flames one by one.
At the end of the burning, Nan Yan let go, the flame turned into ashes, and fell to the ground unsteadily. She even stepped on it, completely turning the ball of ashes into nothingness, then turned around and blew out the flames on the table. candlelight, then slowly walked to the bed in the dark, and lay down.
She did all this quietly.
Even in front of Aunt Tongyun just now, she didn't show any strangeness, she was as calm as if nothing happened.
However, only she knows.
My heart is beating like thunder.
The blood in her whole body was rushing fast, and what echoed in her ears was no longer the sound of howling wind outside, but the sound of blood rushing. In such darkness, it was as if there were thousands of troops and horses.
how come
How can it be
She clenched her cold hands slightly, but found that her palms were covered in cold sweat.
Did I have a dream just now, if I continue to lie down now, will I wake up from the dream when I wake up in the morning
Thinking of this, she slowly closed her eyes.
Originally, she thought that she might not be able to sleep that night, but unexpectedly, she slowly lost consciousness amidst the tide-like voices constantly ringing in her ears.
In the chaos, she felt that someone came to her side.
Although the sky was dark, that person's eyes were bright, staring at him closely, that kind of gaze seemed to make people suffocate, but there was an indescribable tenderness.
But…
Even though Nanyan was half asleep and half awake, she still recalled what Aunt Tongyun said before.
This time, the relocation was a major event. The people of King Ning, together with the guards brought by Zhu Feng, were extra cautious. Even when the lights in their room were lit in the middle of the night, they would carefully ask Aunt Tongyun to check it out. How could it be possible? How about entering your own room
It turned out that it was a dream.
Thinking about it this way, the dream seemed to sink even deeper.
Lying on the bed, Nan Yan felt that those eyes were still staring at her, and she refused to relax at all. Now that she knew it was a dream, she was no longer nervous, and just faced each other calmly.
After an unknown amount of time, the person beside the bed slowly bent down.
His breath hit her face.
A little hot, even a little hot.
His breathing was also very short, as if he was trying to suppress something, even in his dream, Nan Yan could feel his almost anxious and uncontrollable emotions.
After the fiery breath, is a strange touch.
fell on the lips.
It was a little soft, lightly on my lips, and then, as if it didn't feel enough, it went deeper.
Nan Yan frowned slightly.
Even in a dream, she knew something was wrong.
who is it
Who is kissing herself
"who is it?"
When she was entangled with that person, she tried her best to avoid it, but in her dream, her whole body was so heavy that she couldn't even move a finger, so she could only forcefully escape from her lips. Two weak words.
"Who are you?"
After asking this sentence, she suddenly opened her eyes.
The room is bright.
"...!"
Nan Yan opened her eyes wide in astonishment, looking at the curtain above her head, she still couldn't react for a while.
This is myself—
Last night, that figure standing by the bed, and that person's focused eyes.
even to myself...
Is it a dream
Subconsciously, she raised her hand and touched her lips lightly.
Her lips trembled slightly, and she didn't know if it was because she was touched by someone last night, or because of a sensitive illusion, she always felt weird.
However, in the room, I was indeed alone, and it was almost dawn.
The skylight came in from the window, illuminating the room.
Is it really just a dream
What a strange dream.
Nanyan sat up from the bed in a daze, and at this time, Aunt Tongyun and the others also came, because they were going to leave for Beiping early this morning, and they were going to help her get up and freshen up.
Soon after washing, Nan Yan sat in front of the dressing table, and Nian Qiu combed her hair.
Aunt Tongyun said: "Your Majesty went to bed so late last night, I'm afraid she didn't sleep well."
"..."
Nan Yan didn't speak.
It's not that I didn't sleep well.
Not only did I sleep well, but I also had a strange dream.
It's just that she was embarrassed to tell them that kind of dream.
At this time, she thought for a while and asked, "Where is the emperor?"
