Chapter 947

After paying homage to Mrs. Xiao on the anniversary of Mrs. Xiao's death, Shen Muyu, Wei Ying and his party set off that afternoon and embarked on the return journey.

Before leaving, Shen Muyu asked Wei Ying if she needed to take Yu'er away with her in Ningyuan Hall to serve her daily life, and then find someone to guard the tomb in Fengming Hall.

Wei Ying was also counting on Yu'er to send her a letter to Yingyan Yard, her secret organization in Hongcheng, so naturally she would not agree, so she found an excuse to refuse.

On the way back, Shen Muyu didn't waste time wandering around with Wei Ying, but hurried on the road, and returned to Shen Palace in Lingcheng in the evening five days later.

In this way, Shen Muyu just controlled the time when he was sick and could not go to court within half a month, and he would go to court as usual tomorrow morning.

The two of them were still taken back to Ningyuan Hall by Ye Ming, who had an excuse to leave the palace. Wei Ying remembered that when she just entered the hall, there seemed to be candlelight in the main hall, but when she came out after going to the toilet, the whole Ningyuan Hall was shocked. It was pitch black.

Wei Ying was stunned for a moment, and asked in confusion to Dieyan who came to pick her up with a lantern, "Dieyan, why are there no lights in the hall?"

Dieyan smiled embarrassedly, and said apologetically: "This servant made a mistake, thinking that there are still many candles in our palace, who knows how long it will take to use them before I find out that there are no more. Leader, the girl may feel wronged tonight."

Wei Ying stepped forward and walked towards the side hall with Dieyan, and said casually as she walked: "Where is the need for such trouble, you go and ask the guards outside the hall to go to the next palace to borrow a few candles." Isn't that all right?"

Die Yan shook her head, smiled softly and said: "Maybe the girl doesn't know, because this beauty in our palace doesn't like to see people and is extremely loved by the king, the wives in other palaces have no relationship with us. Great, if the guards go to borrow it, I'm afraid they won't be able to borrow it."

"Then forget it." Wei Ying just said casually, anyway, she was already tired from the long journey, and she was going to sleep when she returned to the side hall, it didn't matter if she had candles or not.

Dieyan sent Wei Ying all the way to the side hall, and said softly at the door: "I'm sorry, girl, there is only this lantern left in our palace, and the servants will use this lantern to pick you up later. Send him back to the main hall, so I can't leave it to you. The bath water has been prepared in the hall, and the girl may have to take a bath in the dark."

Wei Ying looked around the side hall in front of the door, and found that because of the bright moonlight today, light like water penetrated through the windows, and the hall was not completely dark.

She nodded casually, and then asked casually: "Didn't your Lord come back with me? Where did he go?"

Dieyan smiled and replied: "It seems that something happened in the past, someone came and called the king away."

"Okay, I get it, go get busy."

Wei Ying nodded in response, and after Dieyan turned to leave, she turned back and closed the door of the house, stood in front of the door for a while to adapt to the light in the hall, and slowly walked to the bath bucket filled with warm water behind the screen.

Wei Ying walked behind the screen and leaned over to try the water temperature in the tub, then stood up straight, took off her clothes one by one and threw them aside, jumped into the tub, stretched her arms on the edge of the tub and stood up. First, prepare to take a hot bubble bath comfortably under the exhaustion of days of travel.

However, she didn't find it and never expected that not far from the screen, in the darkness between the bed and the wall, there was a person hiding his breath and standing with his arms folded against the wall, with a smile on his lips and curved eyes. It has become a crescent moon, silently admiring the picture of a beauty bathing just under the moonlight outside the window.
