"Squeak..."

After a while, the window was quietly pushed open.

Immediately, a figure appeared outside the window like a ghost, looking into the room silently.

Luo Qingzhou held his breath and closed his eyes.

The moonlight fell on the window sill, and the figure outside the window stood outside for a long time, seeming to be still struggling and hesitating in his heart.

a long time.

Her figure flashed and entered the room.

Immediately, the window was closed.

She silently came to the bed, stood quietly for a long time, and suddenly said: "You are awake, right?"

The person on the bed was silent and motionless.

She suddenly took out another bamboo tube, blew a stream of green smoke directly into his nose, and then said: "Then I'll treat you as asleep."

After doing this, she waited for a while, then took off the wooden hairpin on her head, untied her long hair, got on the bed, and got under the quilt.

In the room, it became quiet.

The two lay together, both motionless and silent.

After a while.

Luo Qingzhou finally couldn't help but open his eyes, turned his face to look at her and said, "Why don't you take off your clothes?"

Linghu Qingzhu also looked at him sideways and said, "Why do you need to take off your clothes?"

Luo Qingzhou said: "Don't you take off your clothes when you sleep?"

Linghu Qingzhu said: "Don't take it off."

Luo Qingzhou hesitated and said, "Then what are you doing here?"

Linghu Qingzhu said calmly: "It's cold when I sleep alone, can't I use your body to keep me warm?"

Luo Qingzhou said: "Then what did you mean by drugging me just now?"

Linghu Qingzhu said: "It's not interesting, I just don't think it's good to come in directly, so I want to take one more step."

Luo Qingzhou: "..."

The room fell into silence again.

After a while, Luo Qingzhou asked: "Have the master and the elders returned?"

Linghu Qingzhu looked at the roof quietly and said, "Yeah."

Luo Qingzhou asked: "What did they say? Have other sects brought trouble to us?"

Linghu Qingzhu seemed a little impatient and said, "Ask them."

Luo Qingzhou closed his eyes and said, "Okay, then I'll ask tomorrow. Go to sleep. I'm sleepy."

Linghu Qingzhu said no more.

The room was quiet for a while, and Linghu Qingzhu suddenly turned around and hugged him.

Luo Qingzhou opened his eyes and said, "What are you doing?"

Linghu Qingzhu said: "Cold."

Luo Qingzhou said no more.

After a while, Linghu Qingzhu suddenly put his hand into his clothes again.

Luo Qingzhou opened his eyes again and said, "What are you doing again?"

Linghu Qingzhu said: "Cover your hands."

Luo Qingzhou looked into her eyes for a while and then closed his eyes again.

Another moment passed.

"hiss……"

He suddenly covered his chest and said, "Why are you pinching me?"

Linghu Qingzhu blinked and said, "I don't feel well."

Luo Qingzhou said: "Where do you feel uncomfortable?"

Linghu Qingzhu said: "Wearing too thick clothes will make sleeping uncomfortable."

Luo Qingzhou was speechless and said, "Then take off your clothes."

Linghu Qingzhu said: "I am your uncle, how can I take off my clothes in front of you... Please help me take them off."

Luo Qingzhou: "..."

"hurry up."

"oh……"

Luo Qingzhou didn't dare to complain, turned around, untied the belt around her waist, helped her take off her coat, and threw it directly to the ground.

"Uncle, you don't need to take off what's inside, it's quite cold."

"Whatever you want."

"Then go to sleep...hiss...Uncle, why are you pinching me again?"

"I do not feel well."

"What happened again?"

"It feels uncomfortable to wrap up."

"..."

Outside the window, the night is getting darker.

The Chongming Palace finally became quiet.

The lanterns were quietly removed, and the maids and eunuchs were still busy packing their things.

After having their fill of wine and food, the distinguished guests returned to their residences to rest.

Outside the palace gate, Qin Lang still lowered his head, kneeling alone in the cold night.

Suddenly, a burst of footsteps came in front of him.

Immediately, a sharp voice sounded in his ears: "Master Qin, Your Majesty orders you to go to the study."

Qin Lang raised his head and saw the young eunuch Li Gui.

With a half-smile expression on his face, Li Gui turned around and walked ahead.

Qin Lang immediately stood up and followed him.

In the study room, Nangong Yang, who had changed into bright yellow plain clothes, was sitting at the desk, reading books.

Not long after, Li Gui's voice sounded outside: "Your Majesty, Master Qin is here."

Nangong Yang said calmly: "Let him come in."

Qin Lang lowered his head, entered the study, and said respectfully: "Qin Lang, a common man, pays homage to your majesty."

Nangong Yang put down the book in his hand, looked at him and said: "Qin Lang, you have worked hard for so many years, don't you just want to inherit the legacy of your ancestors of the Qin family, serve the country, share your worries for the king, and win glory for your Qin family?

?Now that I have given you the opportunity, why don’t you cherish it?"

Qin Lang knelt on the ground and said on his forehead: "The common people know that they are guilty, so please punish me."

Nangong Yang stared at him for a while and said: "Your crime is not that you let your family leave, but that you didn't trust me. You failed to live up to my expectations and trust in you. I have always had high hopes for you.

You have favored your son-in-law in every possible way, but how did you repay me? Didn’t I forgive you when the Qin family did so many wrong things? As a result, your brother-in-law actually did it in front of so many foreign guests.

In front of the five major sects, you disobeyed me and ruined my face..."

At this point, he sighed and said: "Even so, I just blamed it in my heart, not verbally. Literary people are a little arrogant sometimes, and I can understand it. What I want is to wait until the banquet is over.

After that, I had a good talk with him and asked him to study hard at home so that he could pass the Jinshi exam next year and work for me. Who would have thought that he would leave with his whole family as soon as he left the palace, and you, Qin Lang, clearly saw

When they arrived, they didn't stop them, but let them leave...Do you think I'm narrow-minded and will hold a grudge against him and settle accounts with your Qin family?"

Nangong Yang gave a bitter smile and said: "You guys underestimate me too much. How could I hold a grudge against the talent I like because of a trivial matter? I am the emperor and the emperor of Dayan. If he is so narrow-minded,

, how will we govern the country in the future, and who will dare to do things for me in the future?"

At this point, he looked at Qin Lang who was kneeling on the ground and said: "So, you are overthinking, and you have misunderstood me... I heard about this before, and I was indeed very angry, very angry, mainly because I felt that you were not

Trust me, I feel that you have disappointed me too much, so I got angry and beat you, so I said harsh words and asked Zhang Pei to catch them back... But I have calmed down now..."

"Qin Lang, I won't be angry about what happened today anymore. Go and call them back. Let your brother-in-law study hard at home. With his talent, he will definitely go to high school next spring. When the time comes for the palace examination, I dare not

I promise to give him the top pick, but the second pick or the top pick will definitely be in his pocket. You know, I cherish talents very much, I appreciate his talent, and I also appreciate your loyalty."

"If they leave like this and never come back, how do you want other people to think of me? People will secretly accuse me of being a foolish king who cannot tolerate talents. And the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother loves your brother-in-law very much. This is
