009: Nightmare

[Eight』

Kneeling for a few days and my legs have lost consciousness. Fortunately, it's the end of spring and you won't catch a cold. However, Yi Moxun has not left yet. Every day he will go to the imperial dining room to get me food and water with my token. He stood beside me all the time except for food, motionless and didn't say a word.

Finally, on the fifth day, the news came that the father issued an order to demote the imperial concubine Huayue as a treasure forest and be banned in the cold palace for life. As for Cang Xun, he was expelled and demoted to a commoner and deprived of lifelong political power.

At that moment, I suddenly felt more relaxed than ever before, and the big stone of his life and death finally landed smoothly. I smiled and my eyes were warm. This was the first time I spared no effort for a person.

I stood up tremblingly, but my legs didn't work hard at all. When I thought I was going to fall heavily, I held me with one hand and picked me up in the air. I leaned against his thick chest, accompanied by his strong heartbeat and a sentence came to my ears: "Princess, I'm offended."

My eyelids were half closed and finally completely closed, enjoying the warmth of sleep in the dark. I'm really tired these days. It's time to have a good rest.

......

The darkness faded, and a white light shot at my eyes. I raised my hand to cover my eyes and looked around with the remaining light. There are one shop after another, and the facade is clean but the door is closed. When I was stunned, the white light disappeared. I withdrew my hand and looked around to see that I was in the middle of a street.

The street floor is very clean and seems to have been cleaned by people. Although it can't be seen at a glance, all the visible ground is as clean as ever. Where is this? I'm confused. There is not only no one here, but also very clean, but also there is no sound. A dead silence is like life.

"Wo... ..." At this time, the sound of a broom suddenly came, from far to near, from small to large. I stared at it and saw a cringing figure gradually clear.

The shabby coarse linen clothes are full of dirt, the hair is dry and messy like weeds, and the face is blocked by the hair, but you can faintly see a pair of bloody eyes and dry and bloody pale lips. The hands holding the broom were as dry as wood, the muscles and veins burst, and several wounds were cracked. The blood stains of the wound were dry, and the skin and flesh were a little ulcerated. As the figure approached, I smelled a rotten smell. I subconsciously raised my hand to cover my mouth and nose, and was shocked. It was the first time I had seen such a decadent person.

I subconsciously took two steps back, not because I didn't see it, but because the smell on the person in front of me was too bad.

At this time, the man did not come forward again, raised his head and looked at me fixedly, and then began to laugh, a creepy smile. The laughter seemed particularly abrupt in this dead street, particularly harsh, and echoed for a long time. Then the man lifted the scattered hair in front of him, and a familiar face was exposed. I was stunned. For a long time, my hoarse voice was difficult to find the name of the person in front of me word by word.

"Cang... Xun..."

How did he become like this? The pain in my heart aggravated little, and I began to have colic. I covered my heart with my hand and watched the person in front of me disappear little by little. I stretched out my other hand to try to grab him but only hooked the corner of his clothes. My fingers curled up and tried to hold it, but the corner of my clothes slipped off my fingertips little by little, and finally disappeared from my sight with him. Medium. The heartache was aggravated. I squatted on the ground, my face was pale, and bean-sized beads of sweat rolled down my forehead.

I clenched my lower lip and tried my best to endure the pain. My body was no longer able to support it. My body hit the ground fiercely. I looked at the endless road in front of me in despair. I don't know if it was a hallucination. I actually found that the road in front of me was disappearing into dust little by little. Floating in the air...

"No!" I opened my eyes with a low roar, but I was covered in cold sweat. Looking around, the curtain is swaying in the air against the sun. Isn't this my bedroom? He lifted the brocade and sat up and took a long breath. It seemed that it was just a dream. Fortunately, it's just a dream.

"Is the princess awake?" A figure came in, and the pace was steady and slow. I looked over and it was a pity that the jasper screen blocked my sight. Even if I opened my eyes wide, I could only faintly see the blurred figure on the screen.

"How long did I sleep?" I asked.

I got out of bed and casually took a dress from the house in front of the window and walked out of the screen. I saw Yi Moxun standing at the table and stirring the porridge in the bowl with a porcelain spoon, steaming in the air.

"Is the princess awake?" Yi Moxun met my eyes and asked.

"How long did I sleep?" I moved away a carved round stool and sat down and took the bowl in his hand.

"Six hours." He raised the corners of his lips slightly and hooked out a light arc.

"My name is Miyuan. Since you are the fiance chosen by my father for me, you and I don't have to see each other. Just call his name." I scooped up a spoonful of porridge and sent it to my mouth. The faint fragrance rumined in my mouth, which was extremely comfortable. By the way, men are not allowed to stay in the harem. You'd better go quickly, or you will be scolded by the stick if you are found.

"It was the emperor who said that I stayed to take care of the princess." He smiled gently and said that the smile was so beautiful that people couldn't bear to look away.

"Oh." I nodded and stopped talking. Before long, a bowl of porridge had bottomed out, and I put the bowl on the table.

This is the face I suddenly remembered in my dream, the terrible look, the decadent situation, and my heart tightened. Then he said, "Do you know where Cang Xun is now?"

"He was sent out of the palace yesterday and should still be in the imperial city."

"Can you do me a favor?"

"Good."

I was stunned, but I didn't expect him to agree without asking, "Don't you ask me what I want you to help?"

"No, I understand what you think. I will do it for you." He smiled in disbelief.
