Zhan Miao bit her lip in embarrassment. She lowered her head and spoke to Xiaobai: "Did you hear that? The emperor is afraid that you will scare Concubine Du, so I can't bring you into the palace. Go home quickly, my dear!"

Xiaobai growled reluctantly a few times before turning around and running away.

Looking at its back, Zhan Miao couldn't help but burst into tears.

She complained: "You have no conscience. I told you to leave, so you left. Can't you just watch me enter the palace first?"

She cursed as she picked up the small bag, scaring the young eunuch so much that he dared not even breathe.

If you are afraid of being used as a punching bag, then you will really suffer an unprovoked disaster.

Zhan Miao went to see Xiao Ling first, looking very unhappy.

She said resentfully, "Your Majesty, why do you insist that I pray for the child in Lady Du's womb? My handwriting isn't pretty, and if I anger the Buddha, what will I do if he blames me?"

A gloomy look flashed across Xiao Ling's eyes. He stood up, walked to Zhan Miao and said, "You don't need to copy the scriptures. All you need to do is sincerely worship Buddha and burn incense!"

As he spoke, he tried to hold Zhan Miao's wrist.

The hairs all over her body stood up, and she subconsciously took a step back and said, "Your Majesty, what are you doing?"

Xiao Ling reacted, frowning and saying, "Meow, you don't have to be so wary of me, right? You're my sister, how could I possibly have any bad intentions towards you?"

Zhan Miao interrupted without hesitation: "I don't like others to be too close to me. Brother Huang, I just entered the palace. Don't you have to quickly arrange a place for me to live?"

Xiao Ling then spoke: "Come here, go clean up the side hall next to my bedroom!"

Zhan Miao was stunned. How could he let her live in his palace?

She quickly refused: "No, Your Majesty, if this gets out, my reputation will be ruined! Find me a new place to live!"

Xiao Ling said dissatisfiedly: "Zhan Miao, this is my order, do you want to disobey?"

Zhan Miao was stunned for a moment, and felt that Xiao Ling was particularly annoying today.

Although I was cursing him in my heart, I didn't show it on my face.

She said helplessly: "Your Majesty, I am doing this for your own good. I have a severe sleepwalking disorder and I am afraid that I will scare you!"

Xiao Ling's heart moved. It seemed that God was helping him. Since she had sleepwalking, something was bound to happen between them in the middle of the night.

When the time comes and the matter is settled, he will marry Zhan Miao into the palace.

He felt very happy when he thought of this beautiful thing.

He said nonchalantly, "I'm not afraid. Come, help Miss Zhan pack her luggage!"

Not long after Zhan Miao was taken away, Concubine Du, who had received the news, hurried over.

She asked angrily, "What do you mean? Why did you keep Zhan Miao in your bedroom? Do you have any improper thoughts about her?"

Xiao Ling immediately stepped forward to comfort him: "Lingzhi, don't be angry, I am doing this for the overall situation. You should know how important Zhan Miao is!"

Du Guiren's eyes immediately turned red. She gritted her teeth and asked, "Do you think she is more important than the child in my belly?"

Xiao Ling quickly denied: "Of course not. In my heart, what I care about most is you and the child, and Zhan Miao is just a stepping stone for me to consolidate my position!"

Lady Du looked at him with tears in her eyes: "Really?"

He hugged her tightly and said, "Why would I lie to you? You know how important the Zhan Yihou Mansion is in the court. As long as Zhan Miao falls into my hands, they won't dare to deal with me!"

Du Lingzhi finally burst into laughter and said delicately, "I'm a little tired. Can you massage my feet for me?"

Xiao Ling nodded: "Okay!"

He placed her on the soft couch and massaged her himself.

Du Lingzhi squinted her eyes comfortably. She felt that this was the enjoyable palace life.

As night fell, Xiao Ling's bedroom fell into silence.

However, Xiao Ling couldn't fall asleep at all. His mind was full of Zhan Miao who was about to sleepwalk.

In order to make it easier for her to come in, he didn't even close the door of the hall tightly.

He blew out the candle and waited in the darkness with bated breath.

Soon, the sound of footsteps was heard outside.

He stood up immediately, his eyes like a wolf catching its cubs in the dark night.

The palace door was pushed open from the outside, and then he saw Zhan Miao walking towards him with his eyes wide open.

His heart was beating wildly with joy. Oh my God, he had finally waited for this moment. He would definitely make it a done deal with her.

He was about to speak when Zhan Miao suddenly grabbed his neck with all his strength: "You bad guy, I'm going to strangle you to death, I'm going to strangle you to death!"

She was so strong that he couldn't break free at all.

His breathing became increasingly weak, and he was almost strangled to death.

He tried to make some noise, but no one heard him.

Only then did he tragically remember that he had deliberately sent all the people away in order to prevent Zhan Miao from calling for help.

Now he is the one who suffers!

He struggled hard, but his body seemed to be sealed and he couldn't exert any strength at all.

"Let me go, let me go!" He rolled his eyes with a purple face.

Zhan Miao still turned a deaf ear to him, her eyes became more and more weird: "Strangle you to death, bastard, I will strangle you to death, disturbing my sleep, so annoying!"

In a flash, Xiao Ling raised his hand and smashed the tea bowl on the table.

Finally, someone outside heard a noise and immediately ran in to ask, "What's going on? Miss Zhan, let go! Let go!"

Zhan Miao frowned, then let go and slapped Xiao Ling twice: "Who told you to disturb my sleep? If you do it again, I'll cut off your tongue!"

After saying that, she turned and left quickly.

Xiao Ling regained his breath and coughed loudly for a while before gradually calming down.

He said with anger in his eyes: "That little bitch must have done it on purpose. I'm going to settle the score with her!"

He led his men to the side hall and found Zhan Miao staring at him innocently with a pair of sleepy eyes: "Your Majesty, why are you breaking into my room in the middle of the night?"

Xiao Ling looked at her suspiciously: "Zhan Miao, do you remember what you just did?"

Zhan Miao scratched his head: "I'm sleeping!"

After a pause, she continued, "No, I remember now. I was pulling out a radish, but I couldn't pull it off. My hand hurt!"

Xiao Ling was so angry that he couldn't vent it, and his heart ached.

He was nearly strangled to death by her, but she didn't remember a thing.

For the sake of my own safety, I cannot leave her in the bedroom.

Thinking of this, he said, "Pack up and go live in Fu'an Palace. It's closer to the Buddhist temple!"

Zhan Miao asked aggrievedly: "Your Majesty, are you going to drive me away? It's the middle of the night, can you please stop making trouble?"

He answered without hesitation: "No!"

What a joke! If we don’t chase him away now, he’ll probably be dead by morning.

He was also wondering where such a fragile-looking girl got the strength from.

She almost strangled him to death?

It’s scary to think about it!

He quickly ordered someone to send Zhan Miao to Fu'an Palace, and only then did he feel relieved.
