Yin Xi didn't believe it at all. She was not a fool.

So she approached Yin Guizhou with doubtful eyes, and said to him eye to eye: "Guizhou, look into my eyes and talk, what is going on with this pillow? Who threw it out?"

Yin Guizhou didn't know why, but he couldn't help but want to look away when looking at Yin Xi's questioning eyes, but this would undoubtedly show Yin Xi that he had a guilty conscience.

So Yin Guizhou subconsciously took a few steps back from Yin Xi's approach, and then he glanced at Dongfang Ming on the bed.

Yin Xi followed Yin Guizhou's gaze and looked towards the bed. In front of her eyes, she saw Nangong Yue leaning on the bed and carefully examining Dongfang Ming's breathing.

Then Yin Xi turned around and said word by word: "Guizhou, you don't mean to say that Dongfang Ming threw this pillow himself, do you?"

Uh. You're right, but
Yin Guizhou looked away, trying his best to think of a reasonable explanation in his heart while silently scolding Dongfang Ming a hundred and eighty times.

However, after Nangong Yue carefully inspected Dongfang Ming's body, she did not find any signs of him waking up, and
"Strange. Where did the pillow under Dongfang Ming's head go?" Nangong Yue stood up and looked around, and then saw the pillow lying peacefully on the ground at Yin Guizhou's feet.

"What's going on?" Nangong Yue asked in surprise. She looked back and forth between Yin Guizhou and the pillow with a different look. The meaning in his eyes was self-evident.

Yin Xi folded his hands on his chest and said, "Yes, Guizhou, what's going on?"

Yin Guizhou thought about it again and again, and finally laughed awkwardly and said: "Well, actually, the emperor seemed to have a nightmare in his sleep just now, and then he suddenly shouted and threw the pillow away. Did you lie down again afterwards?"

Yin Xi: "."

Nangong Yue: "."

Nangong Yue: "Huh?"

Yin Xi looked very disbelieving: "Really or not? Do you mean that the emperor is sleepwalking?"

Yin Guizhou nodded firmly and said miserably: "That pillow almost hit me. It shows how terrible the nightmare the emperor had and how hard he threw the pillow."

His expression was a bit exaggerated. Although Yin Xi still didn't believe it, Nangong Yue obviously believed it. She turned around, picked up the pillow, patted it, carefully put it back under Dongfang Ming's head, and said with distress: "It must be I was frightened by the assassination today, so I had this nightmare."

Yin Guizhou echoed: "Yes, that's it." After he finished speaking, he turned around and saw Yin Xi's eyes full of suspicion.

Yin Guizhou: "Hey hey hey."

Yin Xi: "Hehehe."

Nangong Yue glanced at the sky outside and said to Yin Xi: "Sister, it's getting late. I'll take you back to your respective places to rest. I'll come back to you tomorrow. Now I have to stay by Dongfang Ming's side. .”

Yin Xi waved her hand and said: "Sister, you will stay here and guard us every step of the way. We remember the way we went back. We can just go back by ourselves. There is no need to go to such trouble."

Seeing this, Nangong Yue couldn't say anything else, so she said helplessly: "Hong Xiu is not in the palace at this time. If she were here, I wouldn't be as helpless as I am now."

Yin Xi said: "Sister, please feel at ease. Let's go first."

Nangong Yue said: "Keep your eyes peeled on the road. You can't see clearly at night and it's easy to fall down."

"Okay, sister, don't worry. Let's go. See you tomorrow." Yin Xi was uncharacteristically uncharacteristic today and was in a rare hurry to pull Yin Guizhou away from here.

After pulling Yin Guizhou out of the palace, Yin Xi changed his pleasant expression when facing Nangong Yue. After walking a long distance and arriving at a deserted place, Yin Xi suddenly turned around and grabbed Yin Guizhou's clothes with both hands. Pull the leader in front of you.Yin Guizhou was unprepared for Yin Xi's sudden hand, and was almost thrown forward by him. Fortunately, his basic skills were quite solid and he was able to stabilize his body. Because he didn't react, his eyes were confused. Meet Yin Xi's searching eyes.

Yin Xi narrowed her eyes slightly and lowered her voice: "Tell me, what were you and the emperor doing when Nangong Yue and I were away just now?"

Yin Guizhou swallowed his saliva and said, "Nothing was done. He was fainting and I was standing. It was harmonious."

Yin Xi: "." His eyes became more questioning and he got closer to Yin Guizhou.

Yin Guizhou felt uncomfortable being stared at by her. He had no choice but to surrender and tell the truth: "Okay, that kid is not fainted at all. He is more awake than anyone else."

Yin Xi said "Oh" and let go of the hand holding Yin Guizhou's collar. However, the next second, before Yin Guizhou could take a breath, Yin Xi suddenly grabbed his collar again. With hindsight and shock: "What? He didn't faint? Then how could he still..."

"Shh-" Yin Guizhou hurriedly stopped her from speaking. He looked around and solemnly whispered: "Let's go to my place to talk."

So Yin Xi suppressed all her questions until she got to the bedroom where Yin Guizhou slept. After closing the door and sitting on the bed, Yin Xi grabbed Yin Guizhou's hand and asked vigorously.

"Why didn't he faint? Wasn't he hit by an arrow? I saw him bleeding and his face was pale."

"Since the Emperor was not fainted, how did you know? Did he tell you something?"

"Is there something important you haven't told me?"

There were a series of questions, and Yin Guizhou didn't know which one to answer first.

However, he felt one thing sincerely in his heart:

Since Yin Xi, a woman, experienced the incident with the Xia Mansion and the Ogre, her brain, intelligence, and vigilance have simply grown rapidly.

Now Yin Guizhou never thought that Yin Xi could become so smart.

But under Yin Xi's questioning, Yin Guizhou had no choice but to tell her the whole incident in detail.

The first sentence he opened his mouth to explain almost made Yin Xi's jaw drop.

"What? Dongfang Ming is actually a monk? He even built a foundation!" Yin Xi was extremely shocked. Seeing that this kid was crying like a coward, his cultivation level was higher than hers.

This made Yin Xiqing, who had laughed at Dongfang Ming for two days, extremely embarrassed.

"Sister, listen to me, it is precisely because Dongfang Ming is a monk that he does not want to be the emperor."

Yin Xi understood the rest: "What you mean is that because he wants to practice, he pretends to be a loser on weekdays and wants to use his incompetence to escape the succession to the throne, but he didn't escape."

Yin Guizhou nodded and said, "That's right."

Yin Xi then asked: "Then what did he tell you to do?"

As soon as she finished speaking, she suddenly understood something and slapped her hand on the bed: "Is it because he saw our identities when he rescued us a few days ago?"

Yin Guizhou nodded, and Yin Xi saw this and said, "So, Dongfang Ming saved us because he was asking for something?" (End of Chapter)
