Chapter 12 Waiting For Him

The room was pitch black, Xinyi boldly walked in, the light of the lantern slowly illuminated a larger area, occasionally the wind howled in, the curtain vibrated a few times and then fell quietly.

She sighed, so he wasn't there!Soon he laughed at himself again, he was not the Yu he knew here, but the current emperor, why would he stay here in the middle of the night?

What a fool I am!
Turning back to the door and preparing to leave, but thinking of the scene during the day and his expression at that time, she couldn't bear it again.The last time I met him here, although it was a coincidence, maybe it was fate!He and his sister are flying kites here, maybe this is a special place.Alas, she still decided to believe in God once, and look for it again!

There was no one in the hall. Although the sound of a woman crying could be heard from time to time, she was not afraid this time, and searched everywhere with a lantern.She turned around the main hall several times, but she didn't see him, so she walked into the side hall.There was no one in the side hall on the left, but on the right, she raised the lantern and searched earnestly.

Suddenly, the lantern illuminated a person sitting on a chair, but it was more accurate to say that he was half leaning.

She was startled, but thinking that maybe it was him, she walked over lightly.

The dim light shone on that person's side face, it was really him!

He leaned there with his eyes closed, and she stood three steps away from him, put the lantern on the ground, and stood quietly against the pillar.

Neither of them spoke, and nothing could be heard except the wind.

I don't know what time it is, she was so cold that she sneezed several times, and then he said coldly, "Since you feel cold, why are you still here?"

She didn't answer, sniffed, and took out a handkerchief to wipe away the snot.

He didn't speak anymore, and she was silent too.

The light in the lantern gradually went out, and the room became pitch black again.

In fact, she was very afraid of the dark. When she was a beggar, she was often locked in a dark room and starved because she always had no money.So, she was very afraid of such darkness, and slowly slid down the pillar to the ground and squatted.

Hearing his footsteps, she raised her head and looked in his direction. Although she couldn't see him, she knew he was there.

Suddenly, a light illuminated his face, and it turned out that he was lighting a torch.Are there torches here too?How could he find it so quickly in the dark?She stared at him incredulously, and he stuck the torch on a bracket on a post, and the room was soon lit again.

She kept staring at him, and when she saw him sitting on the chair again, she sat down against the pillar with her legs crossed.

The room fell into silence again. After a long time, she stood up and walked towards him, took off the hairpin that belonged to Lan Zhen and handed it to him. He looked at her puzzled.

"This one belongs to Mrs. Lan! They took everything from her, and this one is me, which was hidden by the slave!" She put the hosta in his hand, and walked back to the place where she was just now Crouch down.

He was surprised at first, but soon showed a trace of joy, holding the jade hairpin in his hand.

She just stared at him blankly, and began to envy Lan Zhen in her heart, sighed unconsciously, raised her hands and curled them in a boring way.

He looked at her without saying a word.

He didn't understand why she came here?She is just a lowly court lady, how could she come here to look for him?Could it be that she was ordered by someone to monitor herself?Or is she trying to win her favor so that she can have something?
However, after meeting her several times, you don't feel that she is a person with ulterior motives?Or is she hiding too deeply?

Lan Zhen's accident this time, he thought it was definitely not an accident, it must have been tipped off.So who could it be?This operation is so confidential, what link went wrong?
Could it be her?Was she the one who reported on Lan Zhen?

He thought so.

Lan Zhen died. This time, not only Lan Zhen's family, but also hundreds of people were involved and all were convicted.Just today, more than 100 people have been beheaded.

It can't go on like this anymore, too many people have died.He had to find the informers who were hiding in the dark. Who would be the informers?
He stared at her again with a gloomy expression.
