I suddenly widened my eyes and stared at the window, and saw the black shadow stopping, as if observing something, and then slowly walked over and soon walked out of the window closest to us.
My breathing stopped.
That is - Master of the National Protection?!
I almost subconsciously wanted to turn over and get out of bed, but as soon as I moved, I felt the hand pressing on my body, heavy. I wonder if he was sleeping too heavily, and almost half of his body weighed on me. Not to mention that I couldn't break free, if I woke him up and saw the figure outside the window, it would be difficult to deal with.
But even if I don’t struggle or move, if the people outside do anything, they will still wake him up!
My heart beat like thunder in a hurry.
Seeing the figure approaching the window here little by little, suddenly, in the blink of an eye, it disappeared.
My eyes widened—what happened?
Is he already left, or was it just that I saw it wrong, and regarded the mottled shadows of trees outside the window as human figures.
Just when I was shocked, there was a sudden sound of footsteps outside. Several figures who looked like guards reflected on the window paper from afar. They approached this side. One of them stood in front of the window, looked around for a few seconds, and whispered: "What's going on? I just saw that there was something--"
At this time, a person next to him smiled and said, "You've read it wrong."
"How is that possible?"
"Who will come here in the middle of the night? Besides, where is the emperor inside?"
"Bad! It's the emperor inside, so we should be more careful."
At the end, the person who spoke obviously shocked everyone else, and no one spoke for a while. He continued, "Everyone is cheering me up. If something goes wrong, see if the emperor wants your head!"
At this moment, a gust of wind came from afar. They seemed to have realized something again and ran away hurriedly.
I was lying on the bed, and my cold sweat almost made my close clothes wet. It was not until I saw them all dispersing that I finally breathed a sigh of relief.
But - what about that figure?
Where did he go? In Jingren Palace, especially the surrounding area of my courtyard, he wouldn't be really caught?
Thinking of this, my heart couldn't help but lift it up again. I looked back and saw that Pei Yuanhao was still sleeping heavily, snoring gently, and gently grabbed the hand he was put on me, trying to move him away.
But just as I pushed his hand away a little, suddenly, a cry came from the quiet night.
“Wow…”
I was shocked by the crying. Before I could react, Pei Yuanhao behind me had suddenly sat up.
The cold sweat on my body was scared and shrank back, and he didn't dare to move. He woke up very quickly. He looked at the curtain above his head and immediately seemed to come to his senses. Then he turned to look at me: "Who? Is Miaoyan crying?"
"……Um."
It was Miaoyan's crying that came from the inner room.
"Quick, go see it."
He said as he was about to turn over and get out of bed, but as soon as he moved, he felt his hand being grabbed. When he looked down, he felt as if he had seen something amazing. He gasped in disbelief and looked at me.
I was also frightened and saw that I was still holding his hand, and immediately threw it away like I was holding the hot charcoal fire: "I, I'm going to see it!"
After saying that, he didn't even look at his eyes that suddenly became gentle. He quickly turned around and got out of bed. He didn't even have time to take a piece of clothing on his body, and took a candlestick from the edge of the bed and ran to the inner room with his shoes.
He followed immediately behind him.
When I ran into the inner room, I immediately saw Miaoyan sitting on her small bed, with tears on her face and a look of fear in her big eyes. As soon as I saw the two of us running in, I suddenly felt like a drowning person had caught a life-saving straw. As soon as I walked to the bed, she crashed into my arms: "Mom!"
"Miaoyan, mom is here. What's wrong? Don't be afraid!"
"I, I dreamed of a ghost..."
As she said, her voice trembling, and the small body nestled in my arms was trembling. I held the candlestick in one hand and held her back with the other, gently stroked her to help her calm her breath, and said softly: "It's okay, it's nothing, it's just a dream, don't be afraid of my witty words."
"Yes, Miaoyan." Pei Yuanhao also sat down beside the bed, touching her back as if I were to make her feel happy: "Dad is here, so ghosts dare not come."
It seemed that she heard Pei Yuanhao's man's voice, which gave Miaoyan a little comfort. She sobbed and slowly raised her head from my arms, crying in a mess, with tears on her eyelashes: "Really, is it true?"
"Of course, Dad will protect you."
“…”
Miaoyan blinked at him, and after a while, he put his hands off my neck and grabbed his neck. Pei Yuanhao immediately carried her into his arms, like a kitten.
I sat next to them with a candlestick, looked at them, and then looked around.
Immediately, I saw a slightly opened gap in the window on one side of the wall...
I felt like I was hit hard in my heart, but I didn't say anything, just turned around and looked at them, and said softly: "Don't be afraid of Miaoyan, my father and mother are here, go to bed quickly."
"I don't want it! I'm afraid!"
She said, hugging Pei Yuanhao's neck even tighter.
Pei Yuanhao probably has never met such a person in his life. Not only is he not afraid of him, but he is also so close to him. It seems that he is a little difficult to resist the thin, thin little arms. He raised his head and looked at me, and said, "Or, take her to the bed outside to sleep. The bed is also big anyway."
“…”
I never thought that Pei Yuanhao would talk to people in such a negotiating tone.
After a moment of silence, I looked at the window with a crack open with my eyes. Miaoyan, who had been burying his head in his arms, turned around and looked at me eagerly. I finally nodded gently: "Okay."
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! When they heard me agree, they both smiled with joy, especially Miaoyan, with tears on her face, but she was as if she was laughing like a flower. Pei Yuanhao wrapped her with a thin quilt and carried her directly out. Just as we just put her on the bed, a very light knocking sound came from outside.
A guard whispered outside: "Master, Miss Yan, is there something wrong with me?"
Pei Yuanhao immediately said: "It's okay. Don't disturb me."
"Yes. The villain deserves to die!"
After saying that, he stepped down.
Pei Yuanhao smiled and hugged Miaoyan in his arms. The two of them rolled on the bed, as if they were two children, one big and one small. I looked at them with the candlestick, and said nothing. I put the candlestick back to the bed, and then went to bed by myself.
This time, it's much better.
He slept inside, I slept outside, and Miaoyan slept among us. In the end, there was a person between the two people, and I was not as difficult as before, and I didn't have to be pressed by one hand on his body. It seemed like he was locked in chains all night and couldn't move.
Thinking of this, I breathed a sigh of relief.
This relaxation makes me feel a little sleepy.
However, Miaoyan, who was sleeping in the center of us, seemed very fresh, probably very happy. She looked up at Pei Yuanhao and looked at me again. Her bright eyes smiled into two crescent moons, and she could see the rippling waves inside. Feeling her constantly turning around, I gently reached out to put her hand on her, and also suppressed her rolling: "Miaoyan, don't always move, sleep well."
"oh……"
She agreed in a low voice.
At this time, a hand reached over and covered my hand.
The palm of my palm was so hot that I shivered for a moment. I hurriedly wanted to pull my hand back, but he tightened it a little calmly and immediately wrapped my five fingers around me. I was so shocked that I looked up at him, and then I saw a smiling daughter next to me. He also looked at me with a smile: "Yes, I'm going to sleep."
"Okay."
Miaoyan muttered, not knowing what lawsuit Pei Yuanhao and I were fighting, so we closed our eyes and fell asleep obediently.
I tried to pull my hand back, but he grabbed it. The force was neither loose nor tight, but it just made me unable to break free from his palm.
I was so anxious that my breathing became tight, and I looked at him through Miaoyan.
"you--"
"Shh."
He made a gesture to me in a low voice, looked down at Miaoyan, and then looked at me.
The child was lying among us and fell asleep quickly. I put my hand on her. If I move it harder, it would definitely wake the child up.
“…”
I had nothing to say, and when I looked at him, I laughed so much that my glasses were bent into two slits, as if I was silently saying to me - Isn't it you who just grabbed my hand?
How could he know that I grabbed his hand just for-
Just for the protector of the country!
Thinking of this, I felt more and more depressed, but he seemed to see through my impatientness, just smiled at me, and then closed his eyes.
Although he closed his eyes, his hands did not relax at all. Not only did he not relax, he also slowly wrapped his fingers around my fingers, touching them for a while, touching them again for a while. The feeling went straight to his heart from his fingers, which made me breathlessly and chest pain.
If it weren't for the wonderful words...
If it weren't for the protector of the country...
I gritted my teeth and closed my eyes and refused to look at him, and ignored the tricks he played on his hands. Finally, he might have felt bored himself, because it was too late at night and finally stopped touching my hands.
I slowly opened my eyes, and looked at him, and my breathing was even and long, as if I had already fallen asleep.
Then, my eyes slowly went down and looked at Miaoyan's chest.
Because of the tossing moment, her pajama collar was pulled a little, and I immediately saw the talisman hanging around her neck-
