The Emperor's Favorite: The Beauty Disturbs the World

Chapter 377 Reincarnation

The torrential rain was pouring, and the lightning tore the dark clouds, but the dark clouds gathered again, running over the majestic Xingqing Palace, which was chilling.Where the thunder rang, a round thing bloomed, emitting a dazzling white light. At first glance, it looked like a large group of terrifying ghosts, wearing court clothes, waving the Qingfeng sword, and dancing the magic weapon with blue-faced fangs, making rumbling noises, Threatened by the torrential rain, the crumbling Jiaofang Temple.

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!" Chang Xi tore his clothes and moaned on the bed.

Li Longji sat on the side of the bed anxiously, held her hand, and said softly: "I am here, I am here!"

Imperial Physician Qin wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, "I really don't know why Concubine Hui has a headache!"

"I don't know? You have practiced medicine for so many years, and you can't even cure such a minor ailment!" Li Longji asked Qin imperial physician while comforting Chang Xi.

Imperial Physician Qin hurriedly replied: "But according to the pulse, although the empress is weak, there is nothing wrong with her body! It's just...just..."

"It's just what?" Li Longji shouted: "You're still hesitating at this time, I can't cure Concubine Hui, I want you to look good!"

Imperial Physician Qin hurriedly said: "Empress Concubine Hui... Madam's headache is probably... caused by fear and worry!" After saying this, Imperial Physician Qin lowered his head, not daring to look at the expression of the man in front of him.

"Fear and worry?" Li Longji repeated in disbelief, then shook his hands impatiently, "I don't want to hear your excuses! You can't cure Concubine Hui's headache, can't you even prescribe a decoction to relieve pain? ! If Concubine Hui continues to suffer like this, I will never forgive you!"

"Yes! Yes!" Imperial Physician Qin lifted up his robe and rushed back to the imperial hospital with the rest of the imperial physicians, to prepare pain-relieving pills for the moaning woman on the couch.

Seeing them go, Li Longji ordered: "You all go down to serve, as long as there is me here! Also, inform King Shou that he doesn't have to wait outside the palace, and let him take the concubine to attend to the illness tomorrow!"

"No!" Gao Lishi worriedly led Qiongyu and others back to the outer hall.

The rest of the people went down to prepare medicines and other sundries, Gao Lishi pulled Qiongyu to a corner and asked in a low voice, "Your Majesty was fine a few days ago, why did you suddenly have this headache?"

Qiongyu shook her head with a pale face and said: "I don't even know about this! It's just that since the death of the three princes, the empress has been depressed, and even King Shou came to comfort her, but it didn't work. Yesterday, the empress insisted on going to Yifangyuan to visit Turn around, the servant thinks that she is worrying all day long, and it is good to relax her mind! But when she arrived at the Chenxiang Pavilion, the empress was annoyed, so she ordered the maids who followed her to retreat outside the pavilion, and stood on the railing to enjoy the flowers. The servant looked at the strong wind, Afraid that my mother would be weak and suffer from the cold again, I wanted to go down and get a cloak, but just as I turned around, I heard my mother shouting from the pavilion, saying... that she saw a ghost!"

"Ghost?" Gao Lishi wondered, "Where can there be ghosts in the blue sky?"

Qiongyu sighed: "This is how the servant comforts the empress! Who knows that the empress is still very scared. Since that day, when she returned to the Jiaofang Hall, the empress locked herself in the room and often covered herself with a quilt, saying that she was afraid. Ghost, I have been persuading my servants for a long time, but I still don’t listen!"

Gao Lishi sighed and subconsciously looked inside.

The Jiaofang Hall was brightly lit. According to Chang Xi's order, Qiongyu moved almost all the candlesticks in the Jiaofang Hall here, and collected candles from the whole hall.

Li Longji saw that Chang Xi wrapped himself in the quilt, looking like a silkworm baby, so he patted her on the back and said softly: "Chang Xi, don't be afraid, I'm here! I will protect you! You are always like this If you are covered in the quilt, your head will hurt even more! Come on... Come out!"

"The concubine won't go out, the concubine will be afraid!" Chang Xi let out a muffled sob under the brocade quilt.

Li Longji continued: "It's okay! I'm here! You forgot, I'm the real dragon emperor!"

"Really? Really!" Bewitched by Li Longji's words, Chang Xi poked her head out cautiously, and then looked around vigilantly.

Li Longji saw that her fair face was covered with tears, and her dark eye circles were extremely haggard. He said heartbrokenly: "Really! I will lie down and sleep with you! I will sleep with you, so you won't be afraid!" He He quickly took off his coat, got on the bed, and held her tightly in his arms.

Chang Xi lay on his chest, trembling slightly with fear, and said nervously: "Your Majesty, Xi'er saw a ghost in the Chenxiang Pavilion yesterday!" After saying this, she quickly put her head on the ground. In the brocade quilt, it seems that when you talk about the ghost, the ghost will appear.

"Ghost?" Li Longji repeated suspiciously.

Chang Xi nodded in the quilt, "It's the ghost of Prince Li Ying! The concubine saw it with her own eyes yesterday! Shhh—he's here!" With violent shaking, she slumped into a ball again.

Li Longji's heart felt as if he had been severely wounded, and his right arm around her was trembling uncontrollably. It's not that he hadn't heard of the nursery rhymes circulating among the people. Even the ministers in the court were discussing this matter these days, could it be... . ! !He didn't dare to think about it, quickly withdrew his thoughts, hugged her even tighter, and comforted her: "You must be wrong! Li Ying was killed by me, even if he wants revenge, he should come to me, it has nothing to do with you, Xi'er! "

Chang Xi poked her head out slowly, her face was covered with tears, her arms were tightly wrapped around Li Longji's body, it seemed that only when this man was by her side could she feel safe. After Li Longji fed her, her mind became clearer.

"Is it better?" Li Longji asked with concern.

Chang Xi nodded, "The concubine feels much better! Just now I always felt that there was a dark shadow in my mind, as if I couldn't get rid of it no matter what I did!"

"That's good, let Qin Taiyi continue to deliver medicine to you tomorrow! You can rest for a while, and when you recover, I will take you to Lishan to live for a while!" Li Longji gently stroked her hair, comforting her. looking at her.

Chang Xi smiled and said, "Go to Mount Li? It's almost winter now, and there's not much prey to hunt. What is your majesty going to Mount Li?"

"Didn't you feel scared in Xingqing Palace! Then I will take you out of here! There is a hot spring in Lishan, you can take a good rest for a while!" He calmly told the woman in his arms about his plan, but it provoked Come her stream of hot tears.

Li Longji said in surprise: "What's wrong with you!" He wiped away her tears with his rough hands.

Chang Xi trembling lips, choked with sobs and said: "Your Majesty, don't treat my concubine so well, my concubine will feel even more guilty!"

more guilty?Li Longji didn't want to pursue the deep meaning in these words, he just put his arms around her and said in a low voice: "I can't live without you! You must get well!"

"Okay!" Chang Xi's eyes were full of tears, but there was a satisfied smile on the corner of her mouth.

Li Longji looked at the lights all over the hall, it was like daytime, no wonder she didn't rest well!With such light, he felt dazzling even when he closed his eyes!He tentatively said: "Light so many candles, you won't be able to sleep well! It's better to extinguish some, with me by your side, everything will be fine!"

There was fear in Chang Xi's eyes, and he whispered: "Is this okay?"

"Trust me!" Li Longji smiled slightly, and ordered: "Qiong Yu!"

"Your Majesty is here!" Qiongyu pushed open the palace door and walked in, "What orders does Your Majesty have?"

Li Longji pointed to the candlesticks on the ground, frowned and said, "Kill half of them!"

"No!" Qiongyu stepped forward cautiously, and blew out all the candles on the five-star lantern near the window. Chang Xi lay on Li Longji's chest and looked at the busy Qiongyu without blinking.

Because the hall door was open, a gust of wind from the hall lifted the curtain tassels on the bed, "Ah—there is a ghost!!" Chang Xi covered her eyes and screamed, so frightened that Qiongyu poured out all the candles in the candle. The wax dripped on his hands, and he frowned in pain.

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! It's a curtain, not a ghost!" Qiongyu knelt on the ground holding a candle and explained.

Li Longji leaned on her shoulder and said, "Open your eyes and see clearly, it's not a ghost!"

"I won't open my eyes! I won't open my eyes!" Chang Xi said tremblingly, "They're here! They're here to find me! Ah—"

Li Longji turned his head and shouted: "You slave, you can't do such a small thing well! Why didn't you just close the palace door!"

"Slaves should die!" Under Li Longji's might, Qiongyu was so frightened that she knelt on the ground and shivered.

"Get out!" Li Longji gave her a disgusted look.

Qiongyu ran out with the red candle in her hand as if she was about to be pardoned, this time she did not forget to close the door of the palace.

Li Longji sat up, put his arms around his trembling petite body, and sighed: "Okay! Okay! Let's keep the candles alive! Those ghosts who don't extinguish the candles won't dare to come, you have a good sleep! Sleep well Go to sleep!" He suddenly slowed down, and even pleaded: "Chang Xi, if you go on like this, your body really can't stand it! Even for the sake of me, you should sleep well for a night!"

Chang Xi looked at this man who was heartbroken because of her, and felt great pain in his heart. He tried hard to overcome his fear and his sanity that was about to collapse, and tried to smile, "Your Majesty, this concubine will sleep now, it's fine!" She crouched In his arms, he tried hard to let himself fall asleep, and he patted her on the back gently like taking care of another child who was insomnia and afraid of the dark.

There was no dream all night, and the torrential rain outside the temple also subsided.When Chang Xi woke up again, she felt that her eyes were still dark!My eyes are tightly covered by a warm thing!

She touched it with her hand, and it turned out to be his hand!Why did he put his hands over his eyes?Chang Xi had some doubts, but looking around, she found the answer!There were residual candle tears all over the floor, he must be afraid that she would not be able to sleep well under the light of the candle, so he covered her eyes with his hands for the whole night!How uncomfortable it is to bend your arms like this!
"Your Majesty, is your arm numb?" Chang Xi held back tears of emotion and gently massaged his stiff arm.

Li Longji also woke up, and said with a smile, "I'm fine! As long as you can rest well!"

Chang Xi's cheeks were dizzy, and she smiled sweetly, "The concubine is fine!"

Li Longji said in surprise: "Really?"

"Really!" Chang Xi got up to change Li Longji's clothes, "Isn't Your Majesty going to court today?"

Li Longji shook his head and said, "I'm not going! I'll stay here with you!"

Chang Xi sighed and said: "The concubine knows that His Majesty loves Xi'er, but for the matter of the three common people recently, His Majesty has a lot of government affairs to deal with, and the court also urgently needs stability, so don't get bored with the concubine! Besides, the concubine made an appointment today. Huamei went to Baohua Hall to pray for blessings! I don’t have time to accompany Your Majesty!”

Li Longji heard her talking about Li Ying as if nothing had happened, so he believed her words. The court was indeed in turmoil because of Li Ying's death, and urgently needed to settle down, so he immediately said: "I will come to see you as soon as I go to court!"

"Okay!" Chang Xi agreed with a smile, watching his handsome back disappearing on the jade steps outside the hall, but just as he left, she fell limply on the bed, scared Qiongyu burst into tears .

Chang Xi panted and shouted: "Don't tell Your Majesty about my illness!"

"But, but!" Qiongyu dared not speak.

Chang Xi said angrily: "No but! Wash and change my clothes, I will go to Baohua Hall to pray for blessings!"
