In the dead of night, the prison was cold, and the dim candles flickered on the walls.

The sound of the two footsteps gradually faded away, and Mu Qingyou slumped against the cold cell door, staring straight at the top of the cell with empty and dead eyes, without any ripples.

After Lin Yao said that sentence, Qin Zhi kept looking at him with secretly delighted eyes, until he boarded the carriage back to the palace.

Lin Yao got goosebumps from seeing it.He raised Qin Zhi's tightly clasped hands and asked him helplessly, "Can you let go of your hands?"

Qin Zhi squeezed Lin Yao's hand tightly and said, "Impossible."

"..." Lin Yao was under great pressure from him, and he explained bravely: "Don't get me wrong, I said that because I couldn't understand him talking about you like that, and I said it deliberately to anger him, there is no other meaning."

Qin Zhi didn't speak, and the way he looked at Lin Yao remained unchanged.

Lin Yao thought about it and said: "You too. He said that about you, so you just stand there and let him talk? Aren't you very good? Why are you so cowardly?"

Qin Zhi's eyes were gentle: "Is Yaoyao fighting for me?"

"I'm called Lu Seeing Injustice Draws His Sword to Help."

"Then I will thank Yaoyao." Qin Zhi held Lin Yao's hand, looked at his guilty expression, suddenly felt warm in his heart, and also felt a little tired.

Thinking about it, Qin Zhi lowered his head and leaned on Lin Yao's shoulder.

Lin Yao's shoulders suddenly sank, feeling like being pressed by a stone, he moved: "Get up, it's too heavy."

"I'm sleepy." Qin Zhi not only didn't get up, but stretched out his arms to hug Lin Yao even more, putting half of his body weight on him.

Lin Yao was squeezed into a corner, and patted Qin Zhi's hand angrily: "Get up, you're dead!"

"I'm sorry."

"stand up!"

"I can't afford it. I have relied on you so many times, Yaoyao should reciprocate."

"...Are you kidding me?"

Qin Zhi breathed calmly and did not answer Lin Yao.

Lin Yao pushed his head a few more times, but failed to do so. Seeing that Qin Zhi had really fallen asleep, she reluctantly gave up on waking him up.

The dignified emperor is still acting like a baby.

Lin Yao turned his head to look at Qin Zhi, and said to himself, you are a cruel, violent and murderous tyrant in the original book, and now you are too embarrassing for the tyrant!

When the carriage returned to Miyagi, when Lin Yao woke Qin Zhi up, half of his shoulder was numb, and he looked at Qin Zhi with resentment in his eyes.

Once Qin Zhi changed from his gloomy and depressed appearance before, his mood was extraordinarily comfortable and joyful.

This night Qin Zhi rested in Chonghua Palace.It was already dark when they returned to the palace, and after experiencing so many things, the two of them fell asleep quickly in bed.

Qin Zhi was extremely busy in the next few days, and he squeezed out time to accompany Lin Yao to have meals at Chonghua Palace, and he was still reviewing papers late at night.

Now he seems to regard the Chonghua Palace as his office, and all the papers are delivered here. He stays up late at night and then goes to bed and hugs Lin Yao to sleep after the papers are approved.

Lin Yao also advised him, since he is so busy, don't take the time to come here, but Qin Zhi refused, and angrily accused Lin Yao of "not wanting him and not caring about him".

Lin Yao simply refused to persuade him, it was good to eat and sleep with Qin Zhi, he was used to it.

Lin Yao has not been idle these days. He has already started writing "The Cowherd and the Weaver Girl". The general context and plot points of the whole story are clearly listed, and the writing is still very fast.

He also asked Qingyou to go out of the palace to inquire about it, knowing that such stories are very popular now.Most of the literati nowadays are arrogant and disdain to write about these love affairs, thinking they are vulgar.However, the love story is the best seller and is very popular.

Lin Yao spends most of his time writing stories.He has high hopes for this story, and if he can win the market, he will earn a lot of money.

He earned 500 taels of silver for the second volume of erotic pictures he drew earlier, which made Lin Yao very happy. Now he is also a person with huge sums of money.

Lin Yao specially asked Qingyou to find a secret place to hide those silver coins.Now he only wants to get rich, and of course the more money he earns, the better.

In the evening of that day, Qin Zhi sent someone to tell Lin Yao that he had something to do and would not come over tonight.

Lin Yao gave the messenger some rewards, but he didn't take it to heart.

Who would have thought that he had eaten his dinner and was about to go to bed, when Qingyou rushed in suddenly.

"What's the matter? Running in such a hurry?" Lin Yao asked in wonder.

Qingyou calmed down a little, lowered her voice and said mysteriously: "My lord, I have found out the reason why His Majesty is not coming tonight."

Lin Yao laughed and said: "He didn't come all night, what are you anxious to inquire about. How did I find out that you care more and more about him now?"

"I'm not all for you. His Majesty loves you so much, he will definitely not let you go. Then I must help you keep an eye on him to prevent His Majesty from being snatched away by others."

Lin Yao looked at Qingyou with complicated eyes, and said in a word: "Then you have worked hard enough."

"It's not hard. I'm satisfied with your life." Qingyou said in a low voice: "Your Majesty comes every night, but he can't tell you tonight. I thought it was strange, so I went to ask someone. I didn't expect to find out. .I heard that someone committed suicide in the prison today, and His Majesty didn’t come after hearing the news.”

"But it's also strange. It's normal for a prisoner to die in the sky prison. Why does it affect His Majesty? It seems that His Majesty's face is particularly ugly when he hears the news."

Lin Yao interrupted Qingyou suddenly: "Who is that person you are talking about?"

"It seems to be called Mu..." Qingyou thought about it for a while, and suddenly realized: "Oh, I remembered. It's called Mu Qingyou. Do you know him?"

Lin Yao was stunned for a while, and did not move for a while: "We have met a few times."

He didn't expect Mu Qingyou to commit suicide, thinking of what Mu Qingyou said before, Qin Zhi's bad mood can be imagined now.

Lin Yao sat on the bed and thought for a long time, but finally couldn't resist getting up and getting dressed, and walked out quickly.

Qingyou chased after him confused: "Master, it's so late, where are you going?"

"Go to His Majesty." Lin Yao didn't turn his head, and the voice came from afar: "You don't need to follow."

The wind at night was chilly, Lin Yao wrapped his robe tightly and went to the Hall of Mental Cultivation first, but of course he couldn't find Qin Zhi there.

Standing in front of the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Liu Jingzhong said worriedly: "After knowing that Mu Qingyou committed suicide, he said with a heavy heart that he wanted to go around and not let anyone follow him. It has been more than two hours and he hasn't come back yet. I don't know where to go."

Lin Yao turned his head and looked at the dark night in the distance, thoughtfully said: "I should know where he went."

Lin Yao wanted a palace lantern, so he quickly went straight to Yonghua Hall with the palace lantern in hand.

He walked into the hall stepping on the gravel and rocks on the ground.The Yonghua Hall is extremely spacious. Lin Yao found it from the hall, then walked around the hall to the backyard.There are several bedrooms in the backyard, and Lin Yao looked about the same, so he started from the leftmost room.

Yonghua Hall has not been lived in for a long time, and the bedroom is full of dust.For some reason, Lin Yao thought of that summer resort, and secretly wondered if the Yonghua Palace also had something to do with Qin Zhi?

He searched several rooms but failed to find Qin Zhi, so he opened the door and entered the next room.

The furnishings of these rooms are similar, but when Lin Yao entered this room, he immediately felt that something was wrong.Because compared with other rooms, this room is really clean.

Lin Yao held up the palace lantern and looked around, and found that not only the ground, but also the room was clean and tidy, without dust or cobwebs. Obviously, someone often came to clean it.

The person who immediately came to his mind was Qin Zhi.

But it feels very incredible.Why did Qin Zhi send people to clean the rooms of the abandoned palace? It doesn't make sense or make sense.

Lin Yao briefly looked at the room, but did not find Qin Zhi, so he was about to leave.

However, when he turned around, a gust of wind came in from the open window, and at that moment, Lin Yao smelled a scent in his nose.

It is the smell of incense burned when paying homage to the dead.

Lin Yao turned around suspiciously, feeling a little creepy for a moment, is there anyone still offering incense in this kind of place?

Countless ghost stories that he had read before flooded into his mind, and he was suppressed abruptly.Bah bah bah, strange powers and gods, where do ghosts come from in this world, they are all scary people.

Thinking about it, Lin Yao followed the fragrance and walked all the way.

Finally, it stopped in front of a hanging black curtain, and the scent was obviously coming from behind the black curtain.

Lin Yao stood in front of the black curtain, his head was full of various ways to open the door. He raised and lowered his hands, put them down and raised them again, and spent several minutes without making up his mind to open the black curtain.

He regretted watching so many horror movies!

"Qin Zhi?" Lin Yao tried to get closer to the black curtain, and shouted into it in a low voice.If Qin Zhi heard it, he would definitely respond to him.

However, the room was quiet, and nothing could be heard except Lin Yao's breathing.

Lin Yao waited for nothing, so he decided to open the black curtain and go in to find out.Although he is afraid of ghosts, he is a firm atheist and never believes in ghosts.

He made preparations for a long time and frightened himself half to death, but when he opened the black curtain, he found that there were only a few memorial tablets inside and nothing else.

The burning incense in front of the case has only burned a small portion, which means that the person who came to burn the incense has just left not long ago.

Lin Yao raised the palace lantern and looked at the tablets curiously.Then he was surprised to find that those tablets were actually the tablets of the court lady who was killed by Qin Zhi earlier.

Lin Yao heard the names of those people when she was listening to Qingyou gossip. Those ladies entered the palace together, and their names all began with the word "月", which is easy to remember.

In addition, Lin Yao also saw Mu Qingyou's memorial tablet.The tablet looks a little old, obviously it was erected a long time ago.

If Lin Yao had doubted who the person who set up the memorial tablet was before, then now he can basically be sure that the person is Qin Zhi.

He never expected that Qin Zhi would set up tablet tablets for those maids in this abandoned palace, and he was so shocked that he didn't know what to say.

He couldn't help but feel it was funny, and thought to himself that maybe he had discovered Qin Zhi's true face.That Qin Zhi who shouted fiercely on the surface "I am the emperor" and "I can kill whoever I want" is actually softer and kinder than anyone else.

It's just that his softness is hidden in a very hard shell, and ordinary people can't break through that shell to see his heart.

Lin Yao looked at those memorial tablets and those few burning incense sticks, and laughed out of nowhere, Qin Zhi is such a lovely wife.
