As soon as I heard what he said, I immediately looked up at him with wide eyes in shock, only to see that Pei Yuanhao didn't even look at me again, turned around and walked slowly towards the door.

When she looked back, Liu Ningyan's expression turned extremely ugly.

She bit her lower lip, looked at me resentfully, and finally stamped her feet, turned around and walked out.

I stood at the table, still a little bit unconscious. Xu Cairen was also a little unable to react, but he still said immediately: "Miss Qingying, since the emperor asked you to come over and serve, don't delay and go quickly."

"I..."

I felt my heart tightening, and turned to look at the man's back as he slowly walked away. Xu Cairen misunderstood, thinking that I was worried about poor service, so he said: "Don't be afraid, the emperor just asked you to follow.

There won’t be any errands for you to do.”

After saying that, she saw that it was getting late outside, so she asked Yuwen to bring me a glass lamp and asked me to follow her out.

When I walked out of Lanxiangju, Pei Yuanhao was already standing at the gate. The wind blew his clothes and made a sound. It became more and more heart-stopping to see in the night. I could only move over step by step and keep walking.

Get behind him.

"Have you seen the one walking behind with a lantern?"

After hearing what he said coldly, I gritted my teeth and walked slowly in front of him.

The wind was blowing hard at night, and there was a surging breath in the wind, which made the lantern sway constantly. Fortunately, the lantern was specially made, and it did not go out despite the wind. It was just that the lights were extinguished in this night.

Here, it becomes more and more unsettling.

"Go left."

The cold and merciless voice behind him sounded again.

He walked behind me without saying anything more. He only said a few words when the road forked to let me know where to go, and I didn't dare to look back. But along the way, I felt

His breathing became heavier and heavier, and even in this night, people could feel the warmth brought by the hot eyes behind him.

My palms holding the wooden pole were all sweaty, and when the wind blew, the lantern swayed even more.

However, we finally arrived at the Imperial Study Room.

At a glance from a distance, I saw Eunuch Yu standing on the steps waiting. My tense heart was relieved. I couldn't help but walk over a few steps faster. Eunuch Yu was already coming to greet me: "Your Majesty."
p>

"Yeah."

Pei Yuanhao glanced at him, didn't say anything, and started to walk up. I stood at the foot of the steps and said softly: "Your Majesty, since we have arrived at the Imperial Study Room, then this servant will——"

Before the words "go back" came out of his mouth, he had already said coldly: "Who said you can go back?"

"Ah?"

I was stunned and looked up at him, but he had already walked into the royal study without looking back. I was still standing there in a daze, when Eunuch Yu pushed me and secretly said: "Why don't you go in and serve me."<

/p>

"..." I was speechless. I looked up at the brightly lit imperial study. It was obviously brighter than the night outside, but I had the illusion that it was a trap, exuding a dangerous aura that would devour people.

.

Just when I was hesitant, Eunuch Yu pushed me again. I staggered and could only walk up slowly.

As soon as he walked in, Eunuch Yu closed the door outside.

I stood in the middle of the imperial study with a rickety lantern, feeling uneasy. Pei Yuanhao was already sitting at the table. There was a mountain of memorials piled up on the table. He picked up one, opened it, and started reading.

, after finishing reading, he picked up the brush and said without raising his head: "Why don't you come over and grind the ink."

I could only put the lantern into the wooden stand beside the table and walk over to grind the ink for him.

But he didn't say anything else. He dipped the wolf's hair in his hand into the ink, then picked up the pen and marked a few lines of words on the fold. He read it a few times, then closed it and put it aside, and then picked up another.

Ben.

I stood behind him, my eyes suddenly fell on the memorial, and my eyes widened.

It had been a long time since I left the Nei Zang Pavilion, and I had hardly read any books, but fortunately I had not lost my ability to read ten lines at a glance. I saw at a glance that the book was written by the governor of Jiangnan, and what it was talking about was the student strike from the south.

This was the first time in these years that the imperial court had lifted many of the restrictions placed on students from the south by Kejia, but they never expected that something like this would happen.

Just when I moved my eyes to the bottom of the fold and saw clearly the line of small seal characters below, suddenly there was a thunderous sound outside, which shook the earth and made me break out in a cold sweat.

Imprisoning the father, imprisoning the mother, forcing the brother to death, killing the younger brother, using swords and weapons to riot the palace, using cruel officials to shock the court, indiscriminately using relatives, and killing loyal and good people...

"Interesting, interesting..."

Pei Yuanhao held the booklet, suddenly laughed, and said slowly: "To say that the talents in Jiangnan are indeed extraordinary, the eight crimes listed for me are very clear, as if they have seen them with their own eyes. I think

Even if you want to cry out for injustice, it won’t do.”

My hands that were grinding the ink were shaking a little, and I lowered my head, just doing it without seeing it.

But Pei Yuanhao didn't seem to want to let me go, and looked up at me: "You also followed me across the Yangtze River. Do you have anything to say about the words in this brochure?"

"My servant is too stupid to discuss the government's affairs arbitrarily."

"You weren't so cautious when you rushed into Qingmei Villa."

When I mentioned Qingmei Courtyard and looked at the two words "kill my brother" on the folding book, my heart was beating hard. At this moment, I finally understood why Huang Tianba kept telling me not to fall in love.

.

In the royal family, I have seen too much and known too much, and it is really difficult to escape!

So, I shut my mouth tighter.

The thunder outside was rumbling, the wind was strong, and soon heavy rain was heard pouring down. Pei Yuanhao did not review the memorial, but put it on the other end of the table, and then continued to pick up other memorials and reviewed them slowly.

I subconsciously looked at the other end of the table and found that there was a letter previously placed there. I glanced at it and saw that it seemed to be from Shengjing.

Shengjing, that was the hometown in the north before the royal family entered the customs...

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!

Could it be that something happened there that made him feel as troubled as the Jiangnan incident, so he put it together with the unmarkable papers?

……

Time passed little by little, and it was still windy and rainy outside, with no intention of stopping. Amidst the lightning and thunder, I faintly heard Liu Ningyan's voice. It seemed that she wanted to come in to serve, but was stopped by Eunuch Yu.

Downloaded.

Seeing that it was almost midnight, I was getting more and more panicked.

Finally, he finished reviewing the last booklet, put down the pen in his hand, and let out a long breath, as if he was holding something back.

And I finally breathed a sigh of relief and said impatiently: "Your Majesty, since your Majesty has finished handling the government affairs, I will leave first."

He glanced at me and said nothing. I had already turned around, picked up the glass lamp and walked towards the door. But before I got there, I heard him say from behind: "It's raining so hard outside, do you still want to go?"

?"

"Slave, you are not afraid of the rain."

After saying that, I reached out to open the door.

But just when my hand touched the door, his footsteps suddenly sounded behind me, and a hand suddenly reached over, crossed my shoulder and pressed on the door.

My body suddenly froze, I didn't dare to look back, but I could clearly see that his shadow had covered my shadow, as if he wanted to devour me, and then I felt his hot breath blowing into my ear.

By the side.

Along with that breath, his voice slowly sounded——

"You are not afraid of rain, but I am afraid of fire."

"..."

"Since you lit the fire, it's up to you to put it out!"

As soon as I heard this sentence, my hand shook, and the glass lamp fell from my hand. At this moment, there was another burst of thunder outside, covering up the sound of breaking, but it could not cover up the sparks that flew up when the lamp broke, igniting it.

Heart fire.

He picked me up and turned around and walked into the inner room on the side of the imperial study.

When I touched his body, I realized that his whole body was already burning hot, as if it was really on fire. He was as comfortable as usual a moment ago, but this time he seemed to have disordered breathing.

With a growl like a beast, he put me on the couch, turned over and pressed me up. My clothes quickly took off, and my cold skin pressed against his.

This is not the first time that I have become a tool for him to vent his anger.

Indeed, there is no need to resist or beg anymore, especially when I think that Liu Ningyan may still be outside the door. If she hears any sound, I'm afraid I will really——

So, I lay under him almost convulsively, no longer making any resistance movement, just gritted my teeth and closed my eyes.

Just think of it as being chopped with a knife and an ax once.

However, the crazy abuse in my memory never happened. I opened my eyes subconsciously, only to see this man still covering my body. He just raised his face slightly and looked at me, his eyes shining brightly in the dark.

His eyes stared at me, as if he could swallow me whole.

"You actually help others design me!"

My heart sank suddenly.

Sure enough, it was okay for me to trick others with my little trick, but in front of him, it was just making people laugh. I shrank slightly and looked up at him, and saw that his face was gloomy, his eyes were a little red, and even his smile showed

With a bit of the ferocity of a wild beast, he said in a deep voice: "Very good."

"..."

"You think you can escape by sending other women to my bed, don't you?"

"..."

"Where do you want to escape? Go to the south of the Yangtze River to find Huang Tianba? Or are you going to follow Pei Yuanxiu like her?"

As soon as these words were spoken, not only me, he also pierced a knife into his heart. As if to get rid of the pain, he held me tightly, and a burst of sharp pain followed.

I almost screamed.

But I bit my lower lip and held it back.

This time, he didn't hit me or even insult me, but every move he made seemed to be deliberate torture. My hands were trembling and I didn't dare to make any pleas.

"You should be grateful to me for not killing you in Lanxiangju."

He gritted his teeth, touched my cheek with a hot hand, and said ferociously: "But if there is a next time, I can't promise that I won't want you in front of everyone!"

"Well..."

Outside the window, it was still stormy, and the light of lightning shone through the window paper, illuminating his outline, and my eyes were filled with tears. Until the end, I didn't know what kind of expression he had,
