Oi! I am an article!


Qin Ruojiu stared at the figure of the back of the group that left, the setting sun unfurling their silhouettes that were so thin and weak.


It was as if it was like a long and heavy lead, which instantly made Qin Ruojiu's heart tight and difficult to breathe.


Oi! I am an article!


That Tuyang remark, Qin Ruojiu did not know whether it would come true or not. But Qin Ruojiu understood no matter it was a disaster or a blessing, he would not be able to dodge.


Yes, deep down, Qin Ruojiu was also betting on risking his own life.


What Qin Ruojiu was at stake was whether Emperor Zhaolie would actually kill him with his own hands or not.


No matter how he made Emperor Zhaolie angry, no matter how he disobeyed him, even wanting to escape with his most beloved sister, Emperor Zhaolie did not kill him.


Oi! I am an article!


And this time, would Emperor Zhaolie really kill him like Tuyang had said?


No, Qin Ruojiu smiled bitterly, herself believing that Emperor Zhaolie would not…


At night, as the bright moon gradually rose up above the sky, that cold silver light shone upon the desolate earth.


Qin Ruojiu was worried about Tuyang's injury, himself lying on a soft bed, turning his body repeatedly, unable to sleep for a long time.


At this moment, there was a faint sound outside the door, although it was very quiet and very gentle, but Qin Ruojiu could still hear it clearly in this very quiet night.


Just then Qin Ruojiu instantly turned around, looking at Yan’er and Lu’er who were wearing their sleeping clothes and standing still there, their expressions filled with worry and fear.


The moonlight shone on their faces, there was such a sad look of loneliness and helplessness. Qin Ruojiu was about to ask but she was unable to say a word, finally only able to sigh softly.


“Why are you still not sleeping?”


Yan’er stepped forward, pulled Lu’er and said with a little fear: “Kak Lu’er and I can not sleep, want to come to see the Empress!” Although they did not believe Tuyang's words, but they also should not underestimate that remark. Over night, the two of them were afraid that something would happen to the Empress, as long as they could not see the Empress, they felt that the scene that Tuyang said was very likely to happen.


“Then, tonight we three will jostle and sleep together!”


Yan’er was initially overjoyed, but then he instead said with a slight confusion: “What? Sleeping with the Queen? This ...”


Lu’er nodded and said: “Didn't you always want to see the Empress? Sleep with the Empress tonight, after all the Empress did not mind it either!”


“Kak Lu’er ..”


Seeing Yan’er's timid expression, Qin Ruojiu then laughed.


“Come, quickly, I'll give you a place.”


Fortunately the bed was quite large, the three of them lying on their backs without feeling cramped at all.


Qin Ruojiu slept in the middle, Lu’er and Yan’er slept on each side, both of them each embracing Qin Ruojiu's arms and leaning them on their heads, so they could fall asleep comfortably.


Qin Ruojiu initially smiled lovingly, then she helplessly did not fall asleep until dawn.


The next day, Yan’er and Lu’er fell asleep very soundly, they saw the Empress still asleep, Yan’er then rushed to wake Qin Ruojiu.


Looking at the dazed-looking Empress, her two eyes were also reddened and slightly puffy, Yan’er was surprised and said: “Empress, you why?”


Qin Ruojiu looked around and her gaze was a little blurry, although Qin Ruojiu did not know what was wrong with her, but she did find it difficult to open her eyes.


Qin Ruojiu directly used a silk handkerchief to rub her eyes and said in a soft voice: “It's okay!”


Lu’er was more sensitive, he knew the Empress did not sleep last night. Lu’er directly pushed Yan’er down from the bed and said: “Do not look again, go to fetch water, let the Empress wash her face first!”


After tidying things up, Qin Ruojiu was already sitting in front of the dressing table.


There was a worried sound of Yan’er from the outside: “Kak Lu’er, it would be nice if these three days passed faster!”


“Why?”
