When the inside of the hall was getting dark day by day, the gorgeous and colorful sunset glow outside the window was swallowed up by the night little by little.

On the couch, the two were sleeping close to each other, and the scattered robes and skirts were scattered beside the bamboo couch, or because of the sweltering heat, fine sweat stains emerged from Gong Yu's nose, and her brows were slightly frowned.

Dai Ruyan looked sideways, slightly raised her fingertips to gently rub Gongyu's brows, and wiped away the fine sweat stains along the way, but her fingertips never left, and quietly stroked the tight lips. And the sunken corners of the lips are somewhat deep.

Apparently because of the heat, Gong Yu turned around in dissatisfaction, revealing a large area of ​​spring light, Dai Ruyan's eyes sparkled slightly, she picked up the thin quilt and covered it lightly.

I saw that Gong Yu's bare feet were exposed outside the thin quilt, which seemed to be unable to cover even her legs.

There is no way that Gong Yu's head has been running up in recent years. Dai Ruyan couldn't help but look at the sleeping Gong Yu, stretched out and pulled the thin quilt to cover his body, and the black hair fell behind him, carefully pulling the thin quilt to cover it. As he spoke, helplessness flashed across his eyes.

"Ayan...Ayan..." The parrot suddenly called out.

Gong Yu frowned slightly and slowly woke up, Dai Ruyan had already bathed and changed, and was sitting on the other side reading a book.

Growling in her belly, Gong Yu turned her head to look out of the window, only to find that the window had already been closed, but the candlesticks were already lit in the hall, so it must be night.

Neat robes were placed on the side, Gong Yu turned to look at Dai Ruyan who was on the other side, smiled and called softly: "Ayan..."

Dai Ruyan's eyes fell on the book he was holding in his hand and he responded in a low voice: "What's wrong?"

"Why are you sitting so far away?" Gong Yu asked Dai Ruyan while lying on her stomach.

But Dai Ruyan just flipped through the book lightly, with a very dull expression, and replied solemnly: "This side is bright, suitable for reading."

"Oh, no wonder they don't look at me anymore."

Gong Yu sat up on her own, and stretched out her hand to put on the robe in front of her.

When wearing a thin robe and approaching Dai Ruyan, Gong Yu sat aside and looked at Dai Ruyan's expression, inexplicably a little confused.

Dai Ruyan turned his head to look at Gong Yu, only to see Gong Yu sitting cross-legged with bare feet in front of him, looking at this man and asking, "What's the matter?"

"Can you only see Ayan when you have something to do?" Gong Yu lay on the low table and muttered, "Why is Ayan so indifferent all of a sudden?"

"Is this indifference?"

"That's right, we were still close not long ago." Gong Yu put his hand on the back of Dai Ruyan's hand as he spoke, "Could it be that Ah Yan is angry?"

Dai Ruyan held Gong Yu's hand instead, and responded with a reddish cheek, "You...why don't you see the bad things you did?"

"Where did I do something bad?"

Gong Yu took a closer look, Dai Ruyan raised the book in his hand with seriousness and was about to drop it, Gong Yu hurriedly stretched out his hand to cover his forehead and said, "Don't hit it!"

"Isn't it just that the imprint was left a little deeper?"

"Is this a little deeper?" Dai Ruyan raised his eyebrows slightly and mercilessly knocked on Gong Yu's head.

Gong Yu looked at Dai Ruyan in bewilderment, and stretched out his hand to stick it close, Dai Ruyan was surrounded by Gong Yu's arms.

Dai Ruyan looked at Gong Yu helplessly, tapped Gong Yu's forehead with his fingertips and said, "You... really want to be beaten."

"No way, I'm usually obedient." Gong Yu kissed her parent Ruyan and said with a sideways smile, "I just couldn't help it all at once, so I'll just pay more attention next time."

"And next time?"

Gong Yu blinked, smiled and said with a mouthful of white teeth: "Ayan, don't be angry, at worst, I will let you bite a few bites to relieve your anger?"

Saying that, Gong Yu turned her head and leaned closer, not thinking of Dai Ruyan, but suddenly took a real bite.

The force was not light, the pain made Gong Yu frowned tightly, until Dai Ruyan pulled away, Gong Yu lay in Dai Ruyan's arms and said: "It's... really biting."

Dai Ruyan rubbed his palm lightly, and raised the corner of his mouth and said, "Who let Xiao Jiu leave such a deep imprint, you must have a long memory."

Gong Yu looked at Dai Ruyan aggrievedly, stretched out her hand to hold Dai Ruyan's hand and gnawed it lightly, but she couldn't bear to make a heavy hand, so she could only sigh: "Who made Ayan so attractive."

"Ouch!"

"You still say?" Dai Ruyan pinched Gong Yu's earlobe with her fingertips and asked softly.

"I will not say anymore."

"Really?"

Gong Yu was in so much pain that tears were about to come out, she hurriedly responded: "I promise not to talk nonsense."

Only then did Dai Ruyan let go of her hand, Gong Yu leaned up a little, looked at Dai Ruyan seriously, but her eyes were full of smiles that couldn't be hidden, she lightly pecked Dai Ruyan's mouth a few times and said with a smile: "Even if Ayan has become fierce, but I still like it tightly."

"You, hurry up and put on your robe." Dai Ruyan gently held Gong Yu's cheek in his palm and whispered.

"No, it's already dark anyway, why not..."

"Stop thinking about it."

"Hey? Why?"

Dai Ruyan lightly smoothed Li Gongyu's robe with her fingertips and said helplessly, "You..."

"I?"

"Go to sleep in the imperial study tonight."

Hey?

Do you really want to be so ruthless?

Although Gong Yu was still not driven to the imperial study that night, but Dai Ruyan fell asleep early, and Gong Yu had no choice but to settle down.

When thick fog shrouded the imperial palace in the capital, the weather was getting colder and colder, and Gong Yu sat up sleepily in the morning.

The head is not awake yet, but the hand is already grabbing the robe, and the daily morning has become Gong Yu's nightmare.

Gong Yu reached out and picked up the key beside him to untie the chain. Dai Ruyan beside him woke up slowly, and asked, "Why did you get up so early today?"

"It's getting late, Ayan, you go to bed first." Gong Yu put on her boots and said.

Dai Ruyan got up and sat up, looked at the burning candlesticks in the hall and said, "I can't sleep either."

After putting on the complicated robe, Gong Yu put on the chain on her own, and put the key in Dai Ruyan's palm.

Wearing the crown was somewhat obstructing the line of sight, Gong Yu opened the bead curtain and said with a smile, "I'm leaving."

"Mm." Dai Ruyan tightened her belt, and then let go.

When Gong Yu turned around and left the inner hall, the chain extended and rang out.

Dai Ruyan tightly held the key in his palm, listening to the sound of the chain gradually spreading to the distance, as if his eyes were also looking at the outer hall, the corners of his lips raised slightly.

The epidemic made Qin Hua re-examine the report, and Gong Yu couldn't help but feel chilled looking at the memorial in his hand, that someone took advantage of the chaos to poison.

And the purpose of this person was obviously to make Gong Guo into a mess, but the clues were interrupted, and Qin Hua failed to find out the murderer behind the scenes.

When Qingyun entered the palace with a fox in her hand, Gong Yu was having a meal with Ruyan.

The palace people outside couldn't stop Qing Yun, Gong Yu held the soup bowl and looked at Qing Yun helplessly, while Dai Ruyan sipped the fish soup, the scene was strangely quiet for no reason.

"Little brother, what are you eating today?" Qingyun sat down familiarly.

Gong Yu looked at Qingyun, and replied solemnly: "I am eating, you should retreat to the outer hall first."

"Oh." Qingyun turned to look at Dai Ruyan and said, "This sister is really pretty."

Dai Ruyan looked sideways at Qingyun and asked, "Princess of the Sanggu Kingdom, why did you stay in the capital of the Palace Kingdom for a long time?"

Qingyun put away her smile, and responded seriously: "I want to marry my little brother, little sister, can you promise me?"

Gong Yu hurriedly put down the bowl and chopsticks and said, "Don't mess around anymore."

"Oh."

After sending someone to ban Qingyun from entering the palace, the palace was peaceful for a while.

During the beginning of winter, Dai Ruyan asked Gong Yu to change into her winter robe early on. Gong Yu stretched her arms and looked at Dai Ruyan who was arranging her robes in front of her. She leaned her head slightly forward and kissed the next generation Ruyan's forehead lightly. forward.

Dai Ruyan was taken aback for a moment, looked at Gong Yu's eyes and said softly, "Do you think it fits well?"

Gong Yu raised her hand cooperatively, turned around and said, "Well, it's pretty good."

"After this year, you shouldn't grow any longer." Dai Ruyan said slightly standing on tiptoe to straighten Gong Yu's collar.

"Isn't it good to be tall?" Gong Yu smiled and stretched her arms around Dai Ruyan, rubbed Dai Ruyan's side face affectionately and said, "I'll catch Ayan in one go."

Dai Ruyan couldn't move, looked at Gong Yu helplessly, pinched Gong Yu's earlobe with his fingertips and said: "My head is full of random thoughts."

"But I also only want Ayan, and I don't want anyone else, Ayan doesn't like it either?"

"Let go of your hand, let's talk."

With a cheeky face, Gong Yu leaned closer and said, "A Yan hasn't kissed me for a long time."

Dai Ruyan, with flushed cheeks, responded: "Did you not get close again this morning?"

"I don't care, I just want to kiss."

"you……"

Before the words fell, Gong Yu screamed in the hall: "Ayan, be gentle, my face!"

The parrot outside turned its head sideways and said suddenly: "Ayan, I was wrong! I was wrong!..."

This voice imitation is really lifelike.

In the early morning of the next day, Gong Yu put a piece of gauze on the side of her face, the purpose was purely to block the bright red tooth marks.

Who would have thought that Dai Ruyan, who was always gentle and considerate, would become fierce, that would be a real cruelty.

Gong Yu flipped through the memorial, and when the ministers left the hall, Qin Hua stepped forward and handed over a secret edict and said in a low voice, "Your Majesty, this is the news that the spies investigated yesterday."

"The sixth prince, Gong Liang, secretly dispatched a large number of people to spread rumors of natural and man-made disasters when the epidemic broke out. If the princess of Sangju Kingdom hadn't delivered the antidote in time, the current Gong Kingdom might be in the midst of war again."

"Check, if you see Gong Liang secretly recruiting soldiers and horses, I will arrest them, and send them directly to Dali Temple Secretary Chen Ming to check them personally. As long as you can verify the proof of his military deployment, you will immediately arrest him and put him in prison!"

Gong Yu really couldn't accept that, out of personal desires, she even bet the lives of the people of Gong Kingdom.

Qin Hua bowed his head, and presented a letter from his sleeve pocket: "Your Majesty, this is a letter from the princess of Sangjiao Kingdom."

"She always comes here to mess around. I have not allowed her to enter the palace these days. How could Mr. Qin become her messenger?" Gong Yu took the letter and put it aside.

"Your Majesty, do you know why Sangguo Kingdom is a small country, but why it has not been invaded by other clans after hundreds of years?"

Gong Yu held the memorial in his hand and responded: "I heard that Sanggu Kingdom is best at making Gu."

"When I entered Jinzhou with His Majesty, the flower of eternal life was rumored to be made by the ancient master of the Sanggu Kingdom. It is conceivable that the Sangsu Kingdom is an older dynasty than the Gong Kingdom."

The flower of eternal life?

"Where did Mr. Qin get this news?"

Qin Hua stood aside and said: "I was acting for His Majesty at the beginning, so I also know about the Flower of Eternal Life. I hope Your Majesty will make amends."

Gong Yu closed the memorial, vaguely remembering that Dai Ruyan had someone take away the pollen of the flower of eternal life, so she asked: "Mr. Qin, do you know what medicinal effect the pollen of the flower of eternal life has?"

"According to ancient records, it can be used to revive the dead from a serious illness, or kill people invisible. Only a doctor with superb medical skills dares to use it."

"I know this."

If it's just these, what's the use of taking the flower of eternal life on behalf of Ruyan?

The chain that had been hanging down on the ground suddenly rang, and Qin Hua followed the chain to look deep into the inner hall, and couldn't help showing timidity in his eyes: "Your Majesty, you'd better read the letter from the princess of the Sangjiao Kingdom."

"Okay, I got it." Gong Yuqing grabbed the chain in his hand and tugged, signaling that he got it.

Gong Yu unfolded the envelope with one hand, couldn't help being taken aback, frowned and said: "Arrange me to go out of the palace tonight."

Qin Hua was taken aback for a moment, and then replied: "Yes, Your Majesty."

[In Dai Ruyan's courtyard tonight, Qingyun has something to discuss with her little brother, and she must also want to know about Dai Ruyan's two maidservants. 】

What did Qingyun know?

Gong Yu held the envelope tightly in her palm, stood up and said, "Don't reveal any news."

"Your Majesty, keep this in mind."

Stepping into the inner hall, Gong Yu threw her hands into the fire, looked at the letter paper that was burnt to ashes, and then opened the curtain.

Dai Ruyan was sitting in front of the low table in a dark blue dress, the food had already been set, and when Gong Yu approached, the chain rang loudly.

The palace people had already retreated out of the inner hall, Dai Ruyan held the book in his hand and turned his head slightly to Gong Yu and asked, "Why are you here so late?"

"Something is delayed."

Gong Yu unbuttoned, Dai Ruyan got up and approached, holding the key and lightly untied the chain on Gong Yu's wrist, and then reached out to take off the crown for Gong Yu.

The other part of the chain was still tied to Dai Ruyan's slender wrist, Gong Yu asked hesitantly, "Isn't it inconvenient for Ah Yan to wear this chain?"

"Does Xiao Jiu find it inconvenient?"

Dai Ruyan met Gong Yu's gaze, as if looking into Gong Yu's heart, and responded with a smile: "I don't think it's inconvenient."

Guilty, Gong Yu turned her head to look at the vase by the window, and saw that the flowers in the vase were bright and dazzling, but it was already cold and windy outside, so how could there be such bright and dazzling flowers?

Turning around and taking off the complicated dragon robe, Gong Yu asked curiously with a sigh of relief: "By this time, the flowers should have died long ago, why are they still blooming so brightly?"

Dai Ruyan paused and responded: "I asked someone to choose a deserted palace, and asked the gardener to plant some flowers in it. Xiao Jiu also finds it unbelievable that they can bloom in winter, right?"

What kind of gardener can change the cycle of seasons?Can it even make the flowers bloom forever?

When Dai Ruyan said this, there was a light in his eyes, and Gong Yu felt a little at a loss.

Because Dai Ruyan's eyes seemed to show a morbid appreciation for something, or fascination.

Gong Yu was taken aback for a moment, and couldn't help feeling a chill down her back. She swallowed nervously, and was about to walk to the low table and say, "I'm a little hungry."

Dai Ruyan reached out to hold Gong Yu's hand and said in a low voice, "Good boy, don't worry."

Dai Ruyan was patiently fastening the belt for Gong Yu, then adjusted the rolled-up sleeve robe, finally picked up the chain that fell on the ground, and buckled Gong Yu's wrist seriously.

With a crisp sound, Gong Yu clearly saw the corner of Dai Ruyan's mouth slightly raised, as if this was the only way to make her feel at ease.

The two sat down for a meal, Dai Ruyan filled the fish soup and handed it to Gong Yu's hand, Gong Yu chewed the ribs and looked at the chain connecting the two, suddenly realized that his cooperation might not be able to bring Dai Ruyan out of the abyss Pull it out.

On the contrary, she seemed to be sinking into the abyss little by little, and this sense of powerlessness gave Gong Yu a headache.

"Xiao Jiu should at least eat some vegetables." Dai Ruyan put the vegetables in the palace jade bowl.

Gong Yu came back to her senses and responded, eating rice with big mouthfuls, glanced at the medicinal soup boiled on the small medicine stove beside her and asked, "What is that?"

Dai Ruyan sipped the soup and said, "It's just some refreshing medicine prepared by the imperial physician."

"Is Ayan feeling unwell recently?"

"It's just that it's easy to get sleepy in winter, so I want to adjust it."

Gong Yu took a small sip of the fish soup and asked tentatively, "What did Ayan plan to do when she went to Jinzhou to marry the flower of eternal life?"

"Why did Xiao Jiu bring this up all of a sudden?" Dai Ruyan looked towards Gong Yu.

"It's just... because of the epidemic, I suddenly thought that if the medicine of the Flower of Eternal Life is so powerful, then the epidemic should be extremely easy to cure."

"Stupid." Dai Ruyan sipped the fish soup and said, "If the medicinal effect of the Flower of Eternal Life is not for a skilled doctor, how can an ordinary doctor prepare the dosage?"

"What does Ayan mean to say that the Flower of Eternal Life is very dangerous, so it's not easy to use it?"

"Well, so even though the epidemic is critical, you can rashly use the Flower of Eternal Life to relieve the emergency. I'm afraid it will cause other panic, and it will be more troublesome then."

Gong Yu nodded, took another piece of ribs, not wanting to say on behalf of Ruyan: "Eat more vegetables."

"Hey?" Gong Yu looked at Dai Ruyan with a painful face and said: "There is so much meat on this table, and Ayan doesn't like to eat it, isn't it all for me?"

"You, you have to pay attention to the amount of food you eat every day. How can you just eat meat?"

After finishing speaking, Dai Ruyan put green vegetables in the bowls and dishes in front of Gong Yu, and Gong Yu had to bury her head in eating grass.

When the food was almost finished, Dai Ruyan stopped chopsticks early, Gong Yu drank the soup slowly, Gong Yu felt hot when the fire in the hall was high.

Gong Yu took down the small bowl, picked up a handkerchief beside her and wiped her mouth, the window was brightly lit.

Dai Ruyan held the tea and looked at Gong Yu and asked, "Are you full?"

"Well, I'm so full." Gong Yu said, dawdling to Dai Ruyan's side, half leaning on Dai Ruyan, rubbing the jade pendant Dai Ruyan was wearing with her fingertips and whispering: "Hey, I still can't eat too much gone."

"Who told you not to listen?" Dai Ruyan lightly rubbed Gong Yu's cheeks with his fingertips, and the chain dangled in front of his eyes.

Gong Yu stretched out her hand to lift the chain and said, "Ah Yan, do you still want to wear this chain?"

Dai Ruyan paused, looked at Gong Yu and asked, "Xiao Jiu doesn't like it?"

And looking at it, Gong Yu saw panic in Dai Ruyan's visiting eyes, and said hesitantly: "The chain is cold, and it's not very comfortable to stick to the wrist in winter."

"If this is the reason, I'll ask someone to add some fluffy covers."

For this answer, Gong Yu is not surprised at all, because sometimes Dai Ruyan seems to ignore Gong Yu's real inner thoughts, and stubbornly stick to her own ideas.

Immediately the hall became quiet, Gong Yu slightly opened the distance, looked at the book Dai Ruyan put aside, and subconsciously picked it up.

The word Gong Yu couldn't even read it, so he had to put it aside, Dai Ruyan gently held Gong Yu's cheek in his palm, and said in a low voice, "What's the matter?"

"It's nothing, I just eat too much and don't know what to do."

Gong Yu responded with a smile, looked at the flowers placed by the window, and couldn't help thinking that Dai Ruyan really didn't find a doctor who could concoct the Flower of Eternal Life?

If this flower is one of Dai Ruyan's experiments, what is Dai Ruyan's real purpose?

The more you think about it, the more unknowable you become, and the more you fall into the fear of the unknown. Gong Yu tightly held Dai Ruyan's hand, pecked it a few times and said in a low voice: "Ayan, don't worry, okay?"

Dai Ruyan leaned closer and lightly kissed Gong Yuwei's tight lips, her dark eyes seemed to see through everything.

Gong Yu let Dai Ruyan explore until Dai Ruyan seemed relieved and said, "I'm not worried."

"Really?"

Dai Ruyan's eyes flickered, and he held the chain with his fingertips and said, "Well, as long as Xiao Jiu is by my side, there is nothing to worry about."

There are obviously conditions in these words, and Gong Yu can clearly feel Dai Ruyan's undisguised possessiveness.

Most of the day was spent on reviewing the memorials, although Dai Ruyan didn't review the memorials at the same time, but still stood aside.

That little rabbit is now a big fat rabbit. In the past, Gong Yu teased him a lot, maybe he became thinner faster. Now that Gong Yu is busy, Dai Ruyan rarely plays with it on weekdays. This little rabbit is already visible to the naked eye. The speed is getting fatter.

It often bites the tables and chairs in the palace, and even destroys a lot of palace jade robes in its mouth.

Dai Ruyan asked the palace servants to burn incense quietly in the hall and read the book seriously. When Gong Yu stopped writing, she turned her head slightly.

Only then did she realize that it was already dark outside, Gong Yu got up and walked around Dai Ruyan as if taking a walk, reached out and gently opened the window to change the air in the hall.

When night fell, the two had eaten and Gong Yu lay down early.

But I don't know why Dai Ruyan mostly lay down on the same side in the past, but tonight he was abnormally half lying on the side to read a book.

Gong Yu secretly put some medicinal herbs in the incense burner, and took the antidote deliberately to avoid being tricked.

It's just that Dai Ruyan looked the same, and Gong Yu looked at the fat rabbit at the corner of the table, already drowsy.

After a while, Dai Ruyan showed tiredness, Gong Yu closed her eyes and noticed that Dai Ruyan was lying on one side.

It really felt like she was about to do something bad, Gong Yu buried half of her face in the quilt, afraid that Dai Ruyan would see something wrong.

But until Dai Ruyan lightly encircled Gong Yu with his arms, nothing else seemed to happen.

For a long time, Gong Yu also pretended to turn over, as if Dai Ru Yanzhen had fallen asleep, and it didn't seem like she would deliberately get close to her.

Gong Yu opened her eyes and turned her head slightly to look at Dai Ruyan, stood up carefully, reached out to pick up the key beside her, and carefully opened the chain.

Only now did Gong Yu realize that Dai Ruyan's hands were tightly gripping his wrists.

Subconsciously hesitating for a while, Gong Yu looked at Dai Ruyan for a long time and saw that Dai Ruyan was breathing steadily, it should be when she was deeply asleep, then she carefully removed Dai Ruyan's hand.

Gong Yu looked at the sleeping Dai Ruyan, leaned closer and kissed her lightly, then changed into her robe and left the palace.

The lights in the hall were dimly lit, and the person lying on the bamboo couch didn't seem to notice anything, but his fingertips were tightly holding the chain in his palm.

It was already pitch black outside the hall, Gong Yu led the hidden guards out of the palace in a small sedan chair.

When they arrived at Dai Ruyan's courtyard, Qin Hua was waiting outside with a lamp, when Gong Yu approached and asked, "Where is Qing Yun?"

"Waiting in the courtyard."

When a group of people entered, Gong Yu was surprised to find that the servants guarding the courtyard had all passed out.

Qing Yun waved to Gong Yu playfully not far away, if it wasn't for those tall and burly soldiers of the Sanggu Kingdom beside her, maybe she wouldn't look so weird.

Gong Yu walked into the hall and asked, "What do you know?"

"Little brother is really impatient." Qingyun approached her with a smile and said, "But I like it."

Before she finished speaking, Qing Yun led Gong Yu to the hall, as if she was quite familiar with her.

I saw a dark room unfolded behind the Buddha's portrait on weekdays, with torches lit inside, looking unfathomable.

Gong Yu never thought that there is such a deep dark room in this courtyard.

"What's in here?"

Qingyun smiled and said, "It's a secret."

"Didn't little brother always want to know Dai Ruyan's secret?"

"You sent someone to check on me?"

Gong Yu leaned forward and said, "What did you find?"

"If little brother kisses me, I'll say it."

Qing Yun deliberately moved closer, Gong Yu stretched out her hand and gently pushed Qing Yun who was in the way, and said:

"This is Dai Ruyan's place. If you stay for a long time, if you are discovered, aren't you afraid?"

"Is little brother worried about me?"

Gong Yu pursed her lips tightly and said: "I only marry Dai Ruyan, apart from her, I will not marry anyone else, nor will I accept other concubines."

Qingyun nodded and said, "Yes, I know."

"But I just like my little brother, so even though I'm far away in the country of Sangshu, I always think about my little brother."

Hey, this girl is really hopeless.

When the two approached the bottom of the secret passage, it suddenly became much more empty. Gong Yu looked at the eye-catching talisman and couldn't help being taken aback.

Qingyun was not surprised at all, but seriously tore off a talisman, walked to Gongyu's side and said, "This is the secret language of the Sanggu Kingdom."

"What do you mean?"

"I don't really understand, but it's like getting up and asking the dead to be resurrected, wanting people to be resurrected."

resurrection?

Although Gong Yu knew that Dai Ruyan had always wanted to revive her sister, but her sister did not exist at all.

Unless the younger sister's personality is only known to Dai Ruyan, even A Yan always thinks that the younger sister's personality exists independently.

So it is Ayan who does this.

Gong Yu looked around, there was actually a pool of water under it, Qingyun smiled and asked: "Hey, why aren't you afraid, little brother?"

"I already know that."

"Hey? Did my little brother accept it like this?"

"What happened to those two maids?" Gong Yu asked, turning her head to the side.

Qingyun threw down the spell and said, "I still have a mission to come to Gongguo this time, which is to find the national teacher who has been with us for many years in Sangshu Kingdom."

Gong Yu looked at Qing Yun as if she was going around in circles, so she had no choice but to poke at her and said: "Your court's national teacher has nothing to do with those two maidservants."

"It's just that I accidentally found out that the national teacher was detained by Dai Ruyan."

"Later, I went to check on Zha Dai Ruyan, only to find out that my little brother was also investigating secretly."

The smile in Qingyun's eyes seemed inexplicably attractive, Gong Yu retreated and said, "Can you speak directly if you have anything to say?"

"Okay." Qingyun leaned closer and said, "According to a spy, Dai Ruyan was locked up in the small attic of Dai's old house in Changzhou for a long time when she was young."

Gong Yu looked sideways at Qing Yun and said, "And then?"

"The two maidservants were sent by Dai Ruyan's mother, Mrs. Qing Ji, to take care of Dai Ruyan. Those two maidservants died tragically in Dai Ruyan's small attic one morning, but the young Dai Ruyan seemed to have something wrong. Nothing happened, sitting quietly in the attic with a sharp weapon covered in blood."

Qing Yun circled Gong Yu and said: "Such indifference and ruthlessness, I guess Dai Ruyan must have the eccentricity of murder. Does my little brother still like her wholeheartedly?"

Gong Yu stepped back and said, "Your story is not perfect."

"Little brother doesn't believe it?"

"Where's your spy?"

Qing Yun approached with her skirt in her hand and said, "Of course Dai Ruyan has silenced her."

"Empty words have no proof, how can you let me believe you?"

"Brother, don't you want to know what's in that pond?"

Gong Yu looked sideways at the pitch-black pool and said, "This is just a dojo with a similar practice. Could there be something else?"

Qingyun approached with a smile and said, "Yes."

"what?"

I saw Qingyun's accompanying soldiers of the Sangju Kingdom holding a wolf dog in their hands, and saw the wolf dog stepping into the pool following the order.

It was still very calm everywhere, only to see the wolf dog howled suddenly, it could even be regarded as a scream.

After tossing and tossing for a while, the wolfhound swam back extremely fast, but the things in the pool were like beasts that were chasing after them, clenching tightly and unwilling to let go.

When the water calmed down again, the wolfhound had disappeared, but the soldier dragged up the chain by the chain in his hand, but it turned out to be a bloody skeleton.

Feeling sick in her stomach, Gong Yu suddenly remembered the expressions of those missing soldiers when Qin Hua described them. If there were only a group of skeletons left, no one would be afraid to think what kind of monster it was.

Qing Yun approached Gong Yu with a smile on her face and said, "Are you scared, little brother?"

"This is not a dojo, but more like an execution ground, a place to punish prisoners and traitors."

Gong Yu looked around and said in a panic, "You don't know about Dai Ruyan's two maidservants at all. In fact, you just want me to know this, so as to explain Dai Ruyan's cruelty, right?"

"I never said that Dai Ruyan is cruel." Qing Yun shook her head and lightly took Gong Yu's arm and said, "Little brother, leave her, okay?"

"you……"

Gong Yu broke free from Qingyun's imprisoned hand, and turned to leave this gloomy and terrifying place.

Qing Yun grabbed Gong Yu's hand and said, "Little brother, are you running away?"

"Escape from what?"

"How many lives in the palace country were caused by her, no matter how hard my little brother worked for the people, have you ever wondered how the people of the palace country can accept a queen covered in blood?"

Gong Yu held Qing Yun's hand and scolded angrily: "What do you want to do?"

"I want to be my little brother's concubine. If my little brother is willing to marry me, tomorrow's capital city will still be peaceful and prosperous."

"If I don't want to."

Qing Yun smiled and said, "That means Dai Ruyan will become the target of public criticism tomorrow or in the future."

"Are you threatening me?"

"Little brother, do you know how that black cat that Dai Ruyan once raised died?" Qing Yun looked at Gong Yu with obsessive eyes and said, "I heard that he was also stabbed several times."

"She is cruel to her closest plaything, not to mention that my little brother has a private meeting with me behind her back tonight."

Gong Yu pushed Qing Yun away and said, "You're crazy."

Qingyun was not angry at all, instead she sighed regretfully: "Little brother, if you go back to the palace, it will be very dangerous."

Gong Yu hurried back to the palace in a sedan chair, thinking about the authenticity of Qing Yun's painting just now.

Zhen Gongyu once said that she was murdered, and Dai Ruyan said that she did it voluntarily. Could it be that Dai Ruyan tricked her?

After entering the palace, Gong Yu hurried into the hall, but found that the lights in the hall were all extinguished, and there was no one on the bed in the inner hall.

Where did Dai Ruyan go?

"Come here!" Gong Yu asked people to light up the lamps in the palace, and sent people to find Dai Ruyan.

At twilight, Gong Yu's eyes were bloodshot, but the entire palace had already been turned upside down by Gong Yu, and even the guards guarding the palace gate checked one by one. No one left the palace except Gong Yu last night.

How did Dai Ruyan leave the palace?

Gong Yusu got up and looked around the palace, suddenly thinking that the black dots on the street map of the capital seemed to only stop in the palace.

Dai Ruyan said that she drew it by herself, so perhaps it wasn't that there were no secret passages in the palace. The construction was not completed at the time of twenty, so Dai Ruyan hadn't had time to draw it.

What is the easiest place to hide in this hall, Gong Yu can't help but look around until she sees the Buddha portrait.

The Buddha portrait had already been rolled up, and when Gong Yu stopped to approach, he saw a secret passage suddenly unfolding.

There was the faint sound of the chains colliding inside, as if they were hitting the stone wall heavily, and there seemed to be the sound of sharp knives cutting through the stone wall.

Dai Ruyan, who was dressed in vermilion, was holding a long sword, and the chain hanging from his wrist was powerlessly scattered aside.

Blood dripped down Dai Ruyan's skirt along the edge of the sword, and Dai Ruyan looked at Gong Yu with a godless look in his eyes.

Gong Yu paused in front of her, not even daring to breathe loudly, her whole body froze in place, as if Dai Ruyan, who was walking step by step, was like a demon driving from the depths of hell.

It was impossible to escape, and unable to move, Gong Yu blinked her eyes lightly, just when she was about to speak.

There was a sudden sound of Kacha, Dai Ruyan had delicate makeup on his face, a smile on his lips, his cool fingertips lightly touched Gong Yu's wrist, and he clasped it tightly.

"Where have you been?" Dai Ruyan approached and asked, the long sword was thrown aside by Dai Ruyan, holding Gong Yu's cheek with both hands.

Gong Yu responded: "I... went out of the palace."

Dai Ruyan looked at Gong Yu blankly, touched Gong Yu's brow lightly with his fingertips and said, "Didn't I tell you that you can't leave the small attic?"

"Mother will really kill you."

"What?" Gong Yu looked at Dai Ruyan in front of him with puzzled eyes, and couldn't help but wonder who was Dai Ruyan looking at?

But Dai Ruyan didn't respond, just picked up the long sword, reached out to hold Gong Yu's hand and walked inside.

The chain between the two swayed slightly, Gong Yu stared blankly at Dai Ruyan's back and didn't know what to say.

Until Dai Ruyan pulled Gong Yu to lie on the bed together, the blood-stained sword was placed beside Gong Yu.

Dai Ruyan wrapped her arms tightly around Gong Yu and said in a low voice, "Don't be afraid, as long as we don't make a sound, mother won't be able to find us."

Gong Yu looked sideways at Dai Ruyan and asked softly, "Where have you been?"

"Hush!" Dai Ruyan stretched out his hand to cover Gong Yu's face, and said in a low voice, "Mother is here."

But in fact, there was no one in the hall, the lights were brightly lit, and even the outside was already brightened.

Gong Yu stared blankly at the empty hall, but Dai Ruyan beside him suddenly sat up, holding the long sword tightly in his hand.

"Ayan, where are you going?" Gong Yu hurriedly grabbed Dai Ruyan's sleeve and asked.

Dai Ruyan looked back at Gong Yu, and said seriously: "Good boy, I'm going to find Xiao Jiu, it's dangerous for her to be outside alone."

Gong Yu shook her head and said, "But I'm right here."

"It's dangerous for her to be outside alone..." Dai Ruyan read with empty eyes, not hearing Gong Yu's words at all.

"You are obedient, my sister will go find her, and she will be back soon."

Dai Ruyan stubbornly broke away from Gong Yu's hand, and then hurriedly walked towards the outer hall.

Gong Yu was busy wrapping her arms around the ever-shrinking chain, frowning in pain, thinking that if Dai Ruyan went out like this, everything would be really troublesome.

When the chains were deadlocked, Dai Ruyan suddenly squatted down, covering her face and crying loudly.

"Little Nine!"

Gong Yu hurriedly got up, but because she hadn't slept all night, and because of her nervousness, her eyes suddenly darkened, and she almost couldn't stand up.

After the relaxation, the eyes became much brighter, and then hurriedly walked towards Dai Ruyan, stretched out his arms and gently embraced Dai Ruyan who was as sad as a child.

"Ayan, don't cry, Xiao Jiu is right here."

"She's not here." Dai Ruyan looked at Gong Yu with tears in his eyes, and muttered as if in despair: "She's gone, she's gone when I wake up..."

Gong Yu wiped Dai Ruyan's tears with her fingertips and said: "She will come back, she promised you will come back."

Dai Ruyan looked at Gong Yu blankly and asked, "Have you seen her?"

"Well, she said she likes Yan the most."

"Then did she tell you where she went?" Dai Ruyan asked, holding Gong Yu's arm tightly.

"She's coming back."

"Really?"
