With Nangong Lie by his side, the night of Zhenliang's possession passed so quietly. Her cold had recovered unknowingly, but Nangong Lie was not infected and could not feel the wonderful taste he expected.
Zhenliang didn't know that the wonderful taste that Nangong Lie was really looking forward to was actually her.
Every night after Fenghan disappeared, Zhenliang would lie in bed alone, fearing that Nangong Lie would come over later and suddenly ask her to fulfill her duties as bed attendant.
Only when Nangong Lie personally ordered her to sleep could she close her eyes with peace of mind, secretly glad that she had escaped for another night.
In every seemingly similar night, Zhenliang only focused on the things he was worried about, and never dared to examine his own heart.
For example, when she was taking off her clothes, she would unconsciously look at the slightly closed window, secretly wondering when Nangong Lie would come over?
When she was lying in bed, if there was any sound in her ears, her eyes would quickly turn to the window, mistakenly thinking that Nangong Lie was coming.
When Nangong Lie arrived later than the day before, she would become anxious and even get up and open the window to look outside.
When Nangong Lie really arrived, she retracted her head into the bed, and even deliberately turned her back to the outside and lay motionless to express her unwelcome and dislike.
When Nangong Lie left before dawn and she happened to wake up, looking at his disappearing back, she could not fall asleep for a long time.
When Nangong Lie kissed her tenderly while her thoughts were blurred, she rejected him less and less, and even couldn't help but hug him tightly, holding him tighter and tighter with both hands, wishing she could Rub yourself into his body and never come out again.
On a seemingly calm day, a strange thing happened.
Suddenly one day, Silver Leaf disappeared.
At first, no one took it seriously, because Yin Ye often went to other places in the palace to walk around alone without telling anyone, euphemistically calling it - relaxing.
However, until it was almost dark, Yinye still had not returned to Qiongyu Palace.
Now, not only Jinye and the others were anxious, but also Zhenliang.
Although the palace is large, Yinye's cleverness prevents her from getting lost, and it is Yinye's turn to serve dinner, so she has never been absent for any reason.
No matter whether it was Zhenliang or several other girls, although no one said it, everyone was worried that Yinye had encountered something unexpected, or had accidentally encountered a natural danger, or had been murdered.
What Zhenliang is most afraid of is the latter possibility, and he also feels that the latter is the most likely.
In this harem, there are countless people who are jealous of Nangong Lie's favor towards her and even want to torture her to death. It is not possible to judge who is a good person and who is a bad person with the naked eye.
Zhenliang sent all the people from Qiongyu Palace to various places in the palace to look for traces of Yin Ye. After Qiongyu Palace was empty, she stood there for a while and immediately went to find Nangong Lie.
The only places people in Qiongyu Palace can find are places in the palace that are passable, and those places that are inaccessible can only rely on Nangong Lie's orders.
After some twists and turns, Zhenliang found out that Nangong Lie was having a meal in Jiulong Hall. When she arrived, Nangong Lie had already finished his meal and walked outside for a walk.
From a distance, Nangong Lie saw Zhenliang's tightly frowning brows, which instantly took away the charm of the mask.
Knowing that she might come to him in an emergency, Nangong Lie deliberately said, "Come to have dinner with me? It's a pity that I have already used it, but I don't mind having it with you again."
No longer interested in distinguishing whether Nangong Lie's words were true or a joke, Zhenliang said straightforwardly, "Your Majesty, Silver Leaf is missing. Could you please send someone to help look for it?"
Mentioning the missing silver leaves, Zhenliang's eyes became moist.
Nangong Lie nodded and immediately called Eunuch Jiao to give him instructions quickly.
When only the two of them were left at the scene, Zhenliang said worriedly, "Your Majesty, do you want to go to Youyuan to search first? I am worried..."
In Zhenliang's eyes, the man who lives in Youyuan is a lunatic. If Yinye accidentally breaks into Youyuan, will he be... by that man...
In fact, compared to the fact that Yinye has been killed, Zhenliang would rather Yinye is trapped in the secluded courtyard at this moment, because living is better than anything else.
Nangong Lie's eyes darkened, and he felt that Zhenliang's suspicion was not unreasonable, so he said, "I'll go over and take a look myself."
"Thank you, Your Majesty. Can I, my concubine, go with the Emperor?"
"Of course." Before Nangong Lie started, he stretched out a hand toward Zhenliang, gesturing for her to give him her hand.
Zhenliang hesitated slightly, and then put his hand on Nangong Lie's palm with confidence.
The moment they touched her, Nangong Lie's palms immediately tightened and he pulled her away.
Therefore, although the two of them were thinking about everything about Silver Leaf, in the eyes of outsiders, the scene of the two holding hands was undoubtedly a rare sight in the palace.
No one could predict the extent to which the Emperor would favor Concubine Liang, and it seemed to become more and more profound each time.
When the two of them walked to the entrance of Youyuan, Nangong Lie stopped and said, "Wait for me here. I'll come out as soon as I go."
Zhenliang knew that Nangong Lie didn't let her in because he probably didn't want her to see things she shouldn't have seen. Although she didn't have to be afraid with Nangong Lie protecting her, she didn't want to see the Bian Tai man who once tried to bully her.
Nodding obediently, Zhen Liang said, "If Yin Ye is really inside, please notify the emperor to let me in as soon as possible."
Nangong Lie hummed softly and strode in.
After a while, Nangong Lie walked out quickly, and the first thing he said was, "Yinye is not inside, and he has never been inside."
Zhenliang was disappointed. Once the possibility of Yinye being humiliated in Youyuan was ruled out, the possibility of Yinye being killed was undoubtedly greater.
Nangong Lie held Zhenliang's hand again. Although he didn't know how to comfort her, he tried his best to comfort her, "She will be fine."
Zhenliang nodded with a sad face, "Yes, she will be fine."
By this time, the sky was getting darker and darker.
When it was dark, all the people sent by Eunuch Jiao had returned, and no one brought any news about Silver Leaf.
While waiting for the news, Nangong Lie forced Zhen Liang to eat some dinner. To be precise, Zhen Liang refused to eat at first, so Nangong Lie directly picked up the bowl and chopsticks to feed her, while Zhen Liang was
The surprised eyes made me feel embarrassed, so I reluctantly ate some.
Although Nangong Lie really wanted to send Zhenliang back to Qiongyu Palace in person, so he could just stay in her palace without any trouble, but in order to avoid being noticed, he still sent someone to send Zhenliang back to Qiongyu Palace and waited until the night was deep enough.
When the time comes, go to Qiongyu Palace to continue warming the bed for this woman.
