I'm determined to be the dark moonlight

We are both insomniacs at the end of the world, so why meet each other before.

Weiying and the female ghost girl share the same illness, and the distance between them seems to have shortened a lot in an instant.

She asked, "Why the insomnia?"

Yun Shao's face turned pale, and he said softly, "I had a nightmare."

Weiying shook her head: "Poor."

At this time, she didn't know who the pity of the female ghost girl was because of. She thought that the girl was in the deep palace, lost the emperor's favor, sleeping in the cold and cold, and couldn't sleep at night.So she patted Yun Shao on the shoulder and said with a smile: "It's okay, although you can't sleep, but the culprit who caused your insomnia will definitely not be able to sleep now either."

Yun Shao Youyou asked: "Really?"

Weiying replied decisively: "Of course!"

She doesn't believe that the dog emperor can sleep well recently.

The Dog Emperor sighed again, looking at the thick darkness in front of him, his much lighter body was wrapped in a fox fur, and the blue and black eyes indicated that she had not been able to sleep for a long time.

The culprit, she thought...

It is impossible to convict the two horses.

This show girl is just comforting others, but it feels good to be comforted.

Yun Shao asked: "Then why don't you sleep?"

Weiying felt a pain in her chest, she didn't speak for a long time, her eyebrows were lowered, her pale cheeks were blown bloodless by the night wind.After a long time, she took out a handful of melon seeds from her bosom, handed them to Yun Shao, and said in a low voice, "It doesn't matter if you don't mention it, but it's sad to mention it. Come, come, let's eat melon seeds."

Yun Shao took the melon seeds in silence, and sat on the first step with the girl, facing the cold night wind, and the broken red lantern on the eaves kept shaking in the wind.She felt that this situation was very ridiculous, but she didn't make a sound to stop it, she lowered her eyebrows and slowly peeled the melon seeds.

Weiying: "Tomorrow, maybe in the future, I won't be able to see you again."

Yun Shao quickly understood and raised her eyebrows: "Because of the draft?"

With a lonely expression on her face, Weiying lowered her head and peeled a handful of melon seeds, then handed them over again: "I have to accept it this time, right?"

After a long silence, just when she thought that the unknown concubine would refuse again, a light fragrance came from the opposite side. The "ghost" took her melon seeds and said, "I will see you later."

Wei Ying showed a very faint smile.

I don't know the identity of the person opposite, but being able to dispatch the palace maid and eunuch that day shows that this female ghost girl must be a concubine or concubine of extraordinary status. As long as she opens her mouth, she won't worry too much about Concubine Shu wearing shoes for herself.

Gong Douji was stunned: Host, is this also in your calculation?

Weiying: I just don't know who this kind concubine is, and when will I be able to repay her again?

Gong Douji was eager to tell Yun Shao's identity, but she heard the host muttering to herself: "The dog emperor has so many beauties, yet he dares to make the beauties sad. Damn it, it would be great if he could rebel."

Gong Dou Ji: ...

It's better not to say it.

Not long after, the female ghost chased away the guests as usual, and before Weiying left, she handed her a handful of melon seeds, and accidentally touched the back of the female ghost's hand, which was slippery and cold, as delicate as jade.Before the female ghost got angry, she hastily withdrew her hand and smiled mischievously.

Fortunately, the female ghost girl didn't care, she closed the door lightly, and suddenly opened a small crack, "Tomorrow night..."

The female ghost's voice was ethereal and ethereal, and it was very pleasant to hear. Wei Ying was dazed for a moment before asking: "What? I didn't hear clearly just now."

"It's okay, don't come here again in the future."

The door slammed shut in front of him.

Weiying rubbed her nose, and wandered slowly in the deep palace with a lantern in her hand. After walking a few steps, she heard a stern "Ghost!"

"I'm not a ghost." She shouted quickly, not wanting to let the misunderstanding go on, and she couldn't see the person opposite, so she walked towards the place where the voice came from step by step, and said as gently as she could: "I'm just a beautiful girl from Chuxiufang , I accidentally lost my way, can you please show me the way?"

The little eunuch on the opposite side held a lamp and asked tremblingly, "Really, really?"

Weiying smiled warmly: "I'm not a ghost, you see." She held up the lamp, and the faint candlelight from the lantern illuminated a face as pale as paper.

The little eunuch trembled even more, and suddenly caught sight of the bright red footprints under the girl's feet, one after another, like blood, and couldn't bear it any longer, and shouted: "Ghost!!! Don't come here!!!"

Before Wei Ying could speak again, the little eunuch ran away in fright.

She scratched her head inexplicably: "Didn't you explain it clearly? I'm so scary?"

The system kindly reminded: "Host, when you went out, you stepped on cinnabar."

Weiying:? ? ?

She sighed melancholy, it seemed that the misunderstanding could not be explained.

It was night, and Yun Shao was lying on the couch alone, as if he heard the voice of warblers.

She had another dream.

This time I dreamed of a valley, a yellow warbler stood on a branch, chirping, and then a hundred birds competed, and hundreds of thousands of birds sang freely in the valley.

Standing under the tree, she silently watched this scene, feeling very envious in her heart.

The next day, the emperor, known for his diligence, got up late and missed the early court for the first time.

Fu Shou: "Your Majesty hasn't had a good rest for several days, so he won't go to court today, please rest more, the dragon's body is important."

Yun Shao didn't have any more nightmares, her spirits improved a lot, and she asked Fushou: "Bring up the notes." When she picked up the ink pen to review the notes, she thought of something and raised her head: "Today is the last day of the draft?"

----

On the last day, the showgirls were very nervous.

Xiao Qianxue got up early in the morning, the sky outside the window was dimly lit, and the sky was like a black and blue cloth, revealing a hazy light.She rubbed her eyes and touched the side of the bed. The bed had cooled down, implying that the person next to her had been away for a long time.

"Yingying?" She ran outside the door and saw Weiying leaning against the parasol tree with her eyes closed and her hands folded in her sleeves.

Xiao Qianxue was puzzled: "You got up so early?" When she saw the blue and black under the girl's eyes, she was even more surprised: "It's not like you haven't slept all night, Yingying, don't be nervous, you can do it!"

Wei Ying raised her index finger and put it next to the light-colored mouth.

Xiao Qianxue tilted her head, covered her mouth, and looked at her curiously.

After a while, Wei Ying opened her eyes, and there was a smile in her faint pupils: "Did you hear that?"

Xiao Qianxue: "What?"

Weiying said softly: "The voice of dawn."

There was a big question mark on Xiao Qianxue's small head: "Huh?"

Weiying didn't say anything more, and went with her to prepare to go to Yujingxuan to participate in the final round of the draft.

In Yujingxuan, Yingying and Yanyan, the beautiful girls stood in the osmanthus forest, discussing the matter of the draft in sweet voices.

Seeing Wei Ying and Xiao Qianxue approaching, Xiu Nu was quiet for a moment and avoided them one after another. Gong Bei Nu's burning eyes shot over through the crowd.

Xiao Qianxue tried to smile at her friendly, after all, they were friends who were scared by ghosts together.

Gong Beinu was surprised for a moment, then hummed softly and turned his head away.She made an agreement with her sister that after the draft, these two unsightly women will be kicked out of the palace!

She wants them to leave the palace in disgrace!

Gong Beinu grabbed a handful of sweet-scented osmanthus and squeezed it viciously, her delicate face wrinkled into a ball.

The chattering voices of the show girls stopped abruptly, and a beauty in palace attire walked out of the flower forest.

Concubine Shu's eyebrows are somewhat similar to Gong Beinu's, lacking a bit of refinement and a bit more dignified.She smiled slightly at the beautiful girls, her eyes fell on Xiao Qianxue, and after a while, she turned to look at Weiying again.

Wei Ying looked over.

Concubine Shu turned her head away, without giving her a look, turned around and sat in her seat, and started the draft.

All the show girls prepare are playing the piano, dancing, embroidery and flower arrangement.

The autumn sun was bright, and Concubine Shu yawned as she watched. She covered her face with her hands, and quietly opened her mouth to yawn sleepily, with sleepy tears in her eyes.

Generally, the female officials are responsible for this kind of thing, and the concubine only needs to be an assistant. The female officials will keep some outstanding girls, and then hand over the roster for her to make a decision.

The beautiful girls in front all passed by without any surprises. When Concubine Shu saw the next one, she frowned: "Duan Weiying?"

The female officer tilted her head and replied respectfully, "It's a beautiful girl sent by Jiangnan."

Concubine Shu was holding a round fan, and when she saw Duan Weiying's identity, her mouth curled up in disdain: "The daughter of Xia Jiuliu's family was chosen into the palace no matter what."

Female official: "It's the new system of the Ministry of Household Affairs. Whether it's a beautiful woman who enters the palace or a candidate for the exam, it doesn't matter where she was born."

Concubine Shu snorted coldly, complaining about this, she shook her fan, looked at the sickly girl in the field, and said: "If you go down to the top, you go to the bottom, even if a chicken flies on a sycamore branch, it won't turn into a phoenix."

Everyone can hear the contempt and irony in this sentence.

The show girls were chattering, and Wei Ying, who was standing in the center, kept her expression unchanged and asked in a soft voice, "Can we start?"

Concubine Shu raised her eyebrows and smiled. She originally wanted to say "no need to start" and send her away, but Xiu Nu said first: "Then let me perform a crowing."

Concubine Shu was stunned, sarcasm stuck in her mouth.

what crowing?What's the meaning?

The girl stood under the flower tree, the shadows of the flowers covered her body, she covered her lips and coughed twice, turned slightly sideways, the shadow covered her face.

Immediately afterwards, a clear cock crow sounded in Yujingxuan.

After reacting, Gong Douji broke down and shouted: "Host, let you become a blockbuster, it is not this blockbuster!"

When Concubine Shu heard this, she was surprised for a moment, then she covered her mouth and suppressed a smile, and said to the female officer, "Look, I just said that even a chicken flying on a phoenix tree will not turn into a phoenix."

The show girls roared with laughter, and Gong Beinu laughed the most, blushing.

"Hahaha what kind of talent is this, learning how to crow like a chicken?"

"It's really unseemly, this is also worthy of entering the palace? It's dirty everyone's ears."

The crowing of the rooster gradually subsided, and when Concubine Shu was about to open her mouth to ridicule, she suddenly heard a rustling sound, which was the chirping of a yellow warbler.The leaves are rustled by the breeze, and the fluffy birds chirp to the sun, waking up the whole mountain.

Immediately afterwards, there was another crisp cry.

A beautiful girl exclaimed, "This is the sound of a sparrow."

The sparrows were chirping, mixed with the melodious and beautiful chirping of the yellow warbler. Two birds were jumping in the treetops, and the sound of wings flapping and branches and leaves breaking could be clearly heard.There are more and more bird calls in the forest. Turtledoves, thrushes, magpies, kingfishers... the melodious calls of various birds come and go in the mountains and forests, singing in harmony with each other.

The expressions of the show girls ranged from disdain to surprise, and some began to recognize the birds that appeared: "This is a thrush! There used to be a thrush in front of my house, and it called like this in the morning."

"It's mynah! It's cuckoo!"

And Xiunu was trying to count the bird calls she imitated: "Eight, nine, ten... so many birds!"

The sun shines through the dense leaves, dyeing the jungle pale gold. The deer opened their eyes amidst the twittering of birds, and stepped on the soft soil with their hooves, leaving a line of footprints. From time to time, they stepped on one or two fallen leaves. Gently disconnect.

The deer crossed the mountain stream and turned their heads to drink water. The sound of gurgling water, the sound of deer singing, and the crisp singing of birds in the forest combined to weave a picture of the forest scene in the morning.All of a sudden, the birds scattered, and the deer's voice became sharper, and he turned and fled.

The howling of wolves, the singing of birds, and the growing wind made the atmosphere tense.

The faces of the show girls were pale, as if they had seen the little deer being chased by the wolf and fleeing desperately in the mountains.The deer's hooves smashed the broken leaves of the fingers, and stepped on the rocks, like dense drums, and like a rapid heartbeat.

Panting, running... Just as the show girls were getting more and more nervous, a sharp arrow whistle interrupted the pursuit.

The wolf howled, the deer jumped up the mountain stream, and the patter of horseshoes came from afar, and the young shooters came galloping on their horses, turning over to pick up the spoils, the sound of laughter, frolic, and barking of dogs joined together.The teenagers galloped back to the market, their horseshoes stepping on the bluestone road, ringing like a bell.

Compared with the mountains, the newly awakened city looks like another scene.

The city just woke up, bathed in the morning light, and the blue tiles on the cornices shimmered.Dogs bark a few times in the streets and alleys, and vendors push their carts to sell on the street. The sounds of wontons scooping up water, bargaining, doors opening, and carts rolling and shaking paint a scene of peace and prosperity.

When the show girls heard that the deer was saved, they smiled, stretching their necks, as if a picture scroll of the early morning in Shengjing appeared in front of their eyes.

The teenagers on horseback laughed and rode their horses back to the city, tightening the reins suddenly as if frightened, the horse neighed, and hurriedly hid aside, then the wheels rolled, and the groom shouted—it turned out to be to make way for the adults in the early court.

The sound of wheels stopped, the sound of dismounting horses, footsteps, and tidying up clothes, the sound of high-ranking officials' cars being chased, and the sound of low-level officials' walking, and then the bells and drums rang loudly, and the palace gates opened slowly. Roll call, record.Slightly tilted, amidst the sound of whips, the emperor arrived, and all the officials kowtowed and shouted long live.

In the sound of long live, the faces of the show girls changed drastically. They thought it was the emperor coming, and they couldn't help but knelt down too. When they realized what happened, their expressions were shocked, and they supported each other with limp bodies, showing incredible look.

Seeing Wei Ying walk out from the shadow of the flowers, the show girls who reacted clapped vigorously, and the applause was like thunder.

Concubine Shu's face was pale for a long time, and she almost knelt down when she heard Long Live, but she was pulled by the female officer beside her before she realized it was a ventriloquist.She covered her frantically beating chest, lowered her head again, and saw the song that Xiu Nu had presented earlier.

"When the rooster sings, the world is white - Duan Weiying."

Gong Douji couldn't help boasting: "Host, I really have you!"

Weiying asked: "Is this considered a blockbuster?"

Gong Douji hurriedly blowing rainbow farts: "Of course! No matter how you look at it, it is an out-and-out blockbuster. But host, why did you turn behind the flower tree when performing ventriloquism? Is it for some performance effect?"

Weiying: "Oh no, I just don't want people to see my dexterous tongue."

Gong Douji asked blankly: "Hey? Why?"

Wei Ying folded her sleeves and smiled: "Chicken, you don't understand, this is called Pi Ji's innocence, and her tongue is a crime."

Gong Dou Ji:? ? ?

What are you talking about?

No why should I say again?

Concubine Shu regained her composure, and when she saw that the show girls were still applauding, she became furious and threw the roster at the girl's feet: "Duan Weiying, you are so courageous! You—"

Before he finished speaking, he was suddenly interrupted by a chuckle.

The emperor stood tall and tall, and walked out from under the flower tree, with a slight smile on his delicate eyebrows: "She has always been very courageous."

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty." Concubine Shu's voice was trembling.

The emperor ignored her, and fixedly looked at Wei Ying, with a smile in his voice: "Singing and dancing in the palace resounds, and I haven't heard the sound of tits for a long time, will you be my noble Ying?"
