157. If you walk too much at night, you will run into ghosts.
If Zhong Qingye's original temper was to be followed, she would inevitably have to grab Qi Mo to ask for explanation at this time, but now, she couldn't lift that hand at all.【】
She has made up her mind not to get involved in this man's world. As long as it doesn't threaten her own life, she doesn't want to care about it no matter what happens, and Qi Mo doesn't seem to like her knowing too much about the situation.
Qi Mo's look just now automatically appeared in her mind, and Zhong Qingye felt very uncomfortable. That look didn't seem to be disturbing at all, but in fact she understood that Qi Mo didn't trust her.
"Your Majesty, I will wait for you to go back to your room and rest." Uncle Fu looked at her kindly, the expression on his face was a kind of kindness for future generations, which is hard to resist, and he looked worried at her troubled face: "You are very tired when you go up.
.”
Zhong Qingye forced a smile and nodded. Uncle Fu hurriedly stepped aside and respectfully invited her into the house.
Forget it, don't believe it if Qi Mo doesn't believe it. In the final analysis, they are just collaborators who each get what they want. Even if the two of them have something they shouldn't have once or twice, it can't change this fact. He doesn't believe her.
, she doesn’t necessarily trust him that much.
Zhong Qingye thought with some anger in his heart that as soon as he reached the room, the three girls Chun Xia Qiu, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately ran up to her with joy and chattered around her asking questions.
Zhong Qingye was agitated by their chirping voices, but his heart felt warm. No matter what happened to Qi Mo, there were still people in the palace who really cared about her.
Uncle Fu stood aside with a good temper, and kept talking to the three people around Zhong Qingye. He couldn't help but smile and shake his head: "You three girls, aren't you already tired after not seeing the princess? If you have anything to say, I will talk to you later.
Chance said, let me go back to your room to rest first."
Only then did the three girls react. Seeing Zhong Qingye's pale face, they secretly stuck out their tongues.
Zhong Qingye pursed his lips and smiled, then suddenly seemed to remember something, and hurriedly called Uncle Fu who was turning to leave. Uncle Fu stopped and looked at her with a smile: "Is there anything else that the princess needs from the slaves?"
"
Zhong Qingye smiled slowly and said: "Uncle Fu, you are an elder after all. I feel awkward talking like this. I have nothing serious to do. I just want to ask you if you know that the women, families and children of those arrested this time are all concerned."
In those cells?"
Uncle Fu was stunned and nodded in astonishment: "I know this, but Princess, why do you ask this?"
After getting Uncle Fu's answer, Zhong Qingye told him not to tell Qi Mo, and then followed the three girls back to the room.
As soon as the door of the room was closed, the three girls' violent bombardment started instantly.
"Mother, do you want to take a bath and rest?"
"Mother, are you hungry? Do you want to eat something? I will bring you some snacks to fill your stomach. You haven't eaten for a long time?
"Empress, you..."
Zhong Qingye looked at these girls helplessly, probably because of some kind of change in his psychology. The question that originally only seemed dry to the tongue now sounded more warm.
"I'm not hungry, and I don't want to take a bath. Pour me a cup of ginseng tea to help me sleep. I want to take a rest."
"I'll go!" As soon as Zhong Qingye finished his words, Chun'er, who was the fastest to respond, immediately reached out to express his stance. As soon as he finished speaking, the person had already disappeared outside the door.
Zhong Qingye smiled warmly, turned around, walked to the bed and sat on it, leaning on the soft cushion not wanting to talk.
"Mother, are you okay?" Zhong Qingye's tiredness was very obvious. Both Xia'er and Qiu'er noticed it. They stood by the bed and asked uneasily: "You seem to be very tired when you go up..."
Zhong Qingye did not open his eyes, but curled up the corners of his mouth, showed a faint smile, and said softly: "It's okay, I'm just a little tired. Just take a rest and you'll be fine."
Xia'er and Qiu'er looked at each other, and seeing that Zhong Qingye was in no mood to speak, they stopped talking and took the heater and blanket and put them away for Zhong Qingye.
Zhong Qingye was indeed tired. It was not just physical fatigue, but also psychological fatigue. Even she herself could not explain this tiredness. After drinking tea to help her sleep, she lay down to rest.
Seeing that she seemed to have calmed down, the three girls were afraid of disturbing her rest, so they quietly exited the room and carefully closed the door.
"Is the princess okay?"
A sudden deep male voice sounded from behind, almost making the three timid girls jump up. They turned around hurriedly, only to see Qi Mo standing quietly behind a wooden pillar not far away, with his upper body covered in darkness.
He was stunned and his expression was unclear.
Seeing the prince suddenly, the three girls were a little frightened, and they saluted in a panic, and then said: "The queen was very tired when she went up, and she has already gone to bed."
"Really?" Qi Mo replied lightly, turning his head and looking quietly at the closed wood of the new house, wondering what he was thinking.
The three of them didn't know what to say when the prince was like this. No one knew what happened between the princess and the prince. The three of them didn't know if it was their own imagination. It seemed that they had gone out once, and the prince and princess were a little uncomfortable.
Satisfied.
But the three of them did not dare to say anything more, so they had to stand respectfully at the door of the room. Qi Mo stood alone for a while, and finally turned and left without saying anything.
When Zhong Qingye woke up, it was already dark, there were no lights in the room, and all the household furnishings were shrouded in darkness. Only the cold moonlight slipped in through the cracks in the door, hazily outlining the scene inside the house.
Zhong Qingye sat up and leaned on the soft cushion to take in the moonlight. It was estimated that the time should be around nine or ten o'clock. It was almost two or three o'clock when she came back from the palace, and she had never been sleepy. Seven or eight hours was enough to eliminate all her fatigue.
.
At this time, most of the people in the palace have fallen asleep except for the servants who are keeping watch. The three girls of Spring, Summer and Autumn are not in the room. I don’t know if they have gone back to their rooms, but this is good. Zhong Qingye can do it without being disturbed.
What you want to do.
Turning out of bed, she gently opened the closet, picked out a tight-fitting men's clothing, tied daggers, ropes, steel wires, flints and other items close to her body, made final confirmation, took the veil, and quietly slipped out of the room from behind.
Prince Rui's Mansion is too big, and too many things have happened in just a few days. Zhong Qingye has not been able to fully understand the terrain here, but if she just wants to leave the mansion, she, a former agent, will not be able to stop her.
Speaking in secret, she quietly avoided the vigilant servants and stopped at a hidden corner. Taking advantage of the passing people, she took a few steps and climbed up the four-meter-long wall. She turned over and was as light as a civet.
Normally when he landed, he didn't even make a sound.
"Where do you want to go?"
She had just stood firm when a cold, emotionless voice came from a dark corner not far away, like a ghost.
