Peerless Empress

Chapter 40

In the middle of the night, the yard was silent, but the candles in the house were still brightly lit, and there were figures reflected on the windows, turning the pages of the book intently.

Di Qing walked into Di Fan's courtyard with the lantern in his hand. The place was filled with the smell of medicine, just like the courtyard of Gong Liubing. Looking at the figure in the room, he pursed his lips and smiled lightly. He walked through the long corridor, but the person who greeted her was The servant beside Di Si——Si Ming.

"Miss, the little one has arranged it for you..." The young man had a stern face, but his long and narrow eyes looked around cautiously. Then, he took the lantern in her hand and led her to the backyard.

It was an extremely inconspicuous small house. She remembered that it used to be the emperor's alchemy training room, but why did she bring her here?
Standing waiting outside the house, it was Di Fan's servant - Fan Xin, who saw Di Qing frowning slightly, and immediately complained dissatisfied: "Look, it is said that the lady is not satisfied with the narrow room, you have to put it in a small room. She arranged it here!"

From what he said, it was known that this would be her dormitory, since it was arranged by Di Si, there must be his intentions.

"No, I am very satisfied!"

She walked into the room first, surrounded by light green curtains, jade carvings singing phoenixes and purple screens, ancient wood carving desks and chairs, and exquisite big beds. The Linglong room was decorated quite elegantly and simply and cleanly.

"What are you doing?" A dissatisfied voice came from behind.

Di Qing looked back and saw that Si Ming was blocking the door of the room to prevent Shuang Xin from coming in. He only heard him say indifferently: "Miss can be taken care of by me, you go back to the room to rest first."

"You..." Jiao Xin was about to say something, but met Shang Siming's cold gaze, bit his lips, and obediently said to Di Qing: "Miss, I'll go back to the room to rest first."

After he walked away, Si Ming closed the door, showed her an apologetic expression, opened the closet, took out the bag, and handed it to her: "Miss, the young master asked me to prepare this!"

She opened the bag, which contained black clothing and a black face scarf... Could it be night clothes...

His expression was startled, and then he saw Si Ming moving away the chair in front of the dressing room, took out a sharp dagger from his sleeve, pried open the wooden board on the ground, and revealed a dark hole, turned his head and saw that she had been looking at him, and then pulled the The wooden board was covered, stood up, and whispered in her ear: "Secret way!"

These two simple words have already let Di Qing know Di Si's intentions. Before, on the way to Di Fan's courtyard, she was still thinking about how to find this secret passage. Now, Di Si has made arrangements for her.

Then... Disi, how much did you guess?
——————————

The night is hazy, the full moon and silver light are scattered among the dark forests, tonight is destined to be a sleepless night.

In the house deep in the woods, the wooden boards on the wall were slowly pushed away, and a black shadow quickly collapsed. Under the moonlight, the beautiful eyes exposed outside the clothes were extremely clear, and the waves of eyes flowed excitedly, looking around cautiously. Then check whether the windows and doors are tightly closed, and then listen to the sound outside the house to make sure that no one is there, go to a dark corner, quickly take off the ring, and stuff it into the strong sleeve.
