As usual, after Princess Xinping was in the bedroom for half an hour, Nanyan's face showed a little tiredness, and Zhu Feng took her away.

After seeing off the emperor and the princess, Ran Xiaoyu returned to the bedroom.

Seeing Nanyan leaning against the head of the bed, he immediately presented a cup of hot tea and said softly: "The Empress has walked so far today and has not had enough rest yet. She just played with His Royal Highness the Princess, and she has been troubled again."

“It’s okay.”

Nanyan took the teacup and smiled faintly: "Looking at her, I will never be tired anymore."

Ran Xiaoyu smiled and said, "With His Royal Highness the Princess, it's like the Empress has eaten a fairy pill."

"Isn't that true?"

The two chatted for a while, Nanyan drank a little tea, Ran Xiaoyu took the teacup and whispered: "But, Empress, did the emperor notice something just now?"

Nan Yan's silent eyes flashed slightly.

"You mean"

"The Empress has left the corner gate today."

Nan Yan was silent for a moment, then said calmly: "It's not that he noticed it, someone should have said something in front of him."

"oh?"

"He went to visit the Queen today. I heard that today, most of the people in the harem went to the Queen, and I thought they were going to block him. When they got together, what else could they say? Of course, who is not present is the topic."

"It's Ning Fei and the others again!"

Ran Xiaoyu showed anger on her face: "They really don't give the Empress any free time."

Nan Yan smiled faintly: "It's okay."

"But the emperor, will he have doubts about where the Empress is going?"

"He didn't say anything, he was just fine."

"But the Empress is not going"

"It's okay," Nan Yan said calmly: "Don't worry."

Although she said that, Ran Xiaoyu could not calm down at all, and she could not understand how Nan Yan could be so confident about this matter.

You know, even if you are very skilled and do that, you cannot completely guarantee that you will not be noticed.

However, the emperor was not anxious about the eunuchs. No matter how anxious a palace maid was, it would be useless for the imperial concubine to not worry about it.

Seeing Nan Yan not caring, she had no choice.

After laying the bed for Nanyan and serving her to bed, Ran Xiaoyu also stepped down.

However, Nan Yan did not close her eyes immediately. In the dark and spacious bedroom, she always felt that she was particularly small, especially when she was lying on the bed at night, she felt that the dark sky outside was like a huge black hand, trying to capture herself.

That black hand, I don’t know if it’s the haze in my heart or the fate.

She sighed and closed her eyes after a long time.

In the middle of the night, a drizzle came from outside.

Nan Yan was sleeping in a daze, but he didn't know what was going on. The next morning, a cool breeze hit through the brocade quilt and found that it was raining outside again.

An autumn rain and a cold.

At this time, you can already feel the steps of winter.

After breakfast, Nanyan walked to the corridor and watched a series of crystal raindrops dripping from the eaves, rinsing the bluestone slabs under her feet clean. Although she was wearing thick shoes, she could feel the chill suddenly.

She couldn't help but reach out and took a few drops of rain.

"Empress!"

Aunt Tongyun, behind her, immediately caught up and blamed her: "Why are you standing in this vent again? You don't even talk about it, but you are still playing in the water?"

Nan Yan laughed: "Who has played with water?"

"Look at your hands, what should I do if I catch a cold?"

While saying that, he took out a handkerchief to wipe her hands.

Nanyan couldn't laugh or cry.

Since the last time the dressing change happened, Aunt Tongyun has simply treated her as a three-year-old child. She can't take one more step, and can't eat less.

Fortunately, Ran Xiaoyu took a thick fox fur and put it on Nanyan, saying, "Don't worry, aunt, I will look at the empress."

This is what I saved.

Aunt Tongyun muttered, and went down to work hard again.

Nan Yan looked at her back and smiled bitterly: "Now, I am not as good as a concubine, but like a hard worker in the washing machine."

"What did the Empress say? Who dares to let you do hard work?"

"Haha, I'm joking."

Ran Xiaoyu looked at Nan Yan's calm eyes, and a few small raindrops floated on her eyelashes, like condensed tears, but added a bit of clarity and indifference.

She asked softly, "Empress, are you still going out for a walk today?"

“…”

Nanyan turned her head and looked at her.

"certainly."

“…”

"Of course I have to go."

“…”

Ran Xiaoyu's heartbeat sank slightly.

I originally thought the weather was not good today, so gloomy; I originally thought that the emperor asked that yesterday, and it was obvious that someone was staring at her behind her back; I originally thought that I was joking so easily just now, but I didn't want to do the important things... All of this "original" made her think that Nanyan would not go today.

Unexpectedly, I still have to go.

It seems that she is really determined.

Thinking of this, there was another layer of worry and gloom in Ran Xiaoyu's eyes. Nan Yan treats her, which is not bad. The two of them are already considered masters and servants. Besides, Nan Yan did not treat her as a slave, but always regarded her as a good sister. No matter what, both of them can communicate with each other.

Only this time did Nanyan tell her that she was going to the cabinet treasury to find something, but she never explained what she was looking for.

Not to mention why I wanted to go there.

This is the reason why Ran Xiaoyu has been worried all these days.

Nanyan's transformation seemed to have started from the two days of disappearance, and the biggest problem seemed to be the thing she was looking for in the cabinet's large treasury.

What exactly are you looking for?

Just as she was thinking, Nan Yan stretched his hand out of the eaves again. This time, the rain was much lighter, and only some fine and dense raindrops fell on her palms, condensed into crystal clear water droplets.

Nan Yan said: "The rain is getting light, let's go."

“…”

Ran Xiaoyu hesitated for a moment and said softly: "Yes."

As he said that, he went back to get an umbrella and supported it to her head. The two of them slowly walked out of the bedroom.

Along the way, the drizzle drizzled against the oil-paper umbrella, as if someone was whispering in his ears, but such a sound could not relieve Ran Xiaoyu's worries at all.

As they got closer and closer to the corner gate, her mood became heavier and heavier.

At this time, I walked to the door.

She subconsciously looked back.

Because of the rain, the top of my head was covered with dark clouds. Even though it was already broad daylight at this time, the sky was already very dark and many dark areas in the corners of the walls could not be seen clearly.

Nanyandao: "Xiaoyu."

"Um?"

Ran Xiaoyu looked back at her, but saw her smiling calmly and said, "It's okay."

“…”

"Let's go."
