Chapter 50: The Bamboo Grove's Time, Entering the Palace Gate is Like Entering the Sea
"I didn't expect that when we went there, it was just the kitchen delivering lunch." I muttered, biting on a chopstick.
Tang Gu sighed and fed him some mouthfuls of food: "Alas, all I can say is that you're just unlucky!"
"Why does it sound like you're gloating?" I blurted out suddenly.
"Haha, you've figured it out too." Tang Gu said with a raised eyebrow.
"Qianqian, I'm a bit thirsty and we're out of tea. Would you make some for us?" I turned to say to Little Qian behind me. Little Qian nodded: "Yes, ma'am." After she finished speaking, she turned around and left.
"In the blink of an eye, a day has passed." I gazed at the sunset and couldn't help but feel infinite nostalgia.
"Yes... " Upon hearing this, Tang Gu's eyes dimmed again: "There are only two days left..."
I saw her getting sentimental again, so I hastily said: "Uh, right, how about I sleep with you tonight?"
"Huh? You, you don't share a room with Lord Ying?" Tang Gu asked in confusion.
"We, we had a bit of a disagreement recently, I don't want to see him... yeah, that's it." Oh dear, I'm so honest, it's really not my habit to deceive people. Especially with awkward lies.
I put down my chopsticks. Tang Guo's eyes were dim and his thoughts were restless, so he didn't notice the gloom in my eyes at this moment.
You have two days, but I only have one. The day after tomorrow, the Yaxianju will be opened. At that time, those who should come will all come, right? Why are the people from Qinglian Pavilion so slow? Until now, they still haven't come to see me!
……
Night falls quickly
I slept with Tang Guo in each other's arms. (Uh, this posture is indeed strange...)
"What's that, Tang Gu? You don't snore when you sleep, do you?" I asked anxiously in the dark of night. Although I'm not a cleanliness freak, I've never slept so close to someone before. And it was a female compatriot, no less. This couldn't help but bring up some things that are not suitable for minors...
"Should I say that I'm sleepy? Why don't I just kick you off the bed right now?" Tang Gu raised an eyebrow at me in the dark of night.
"No need, for my innocence... uh, no, no, anyway, I'll just go with the flow!" I said with a reckless abandon.
"I'm afraid you'll drool on me in the middle of the night and ruin my hair." Tang Gu said with a look of disgust, pulling away from me.
"Why didn't you let me sleep in the other bed?" Although we are both women, sleeping together would still have a bad influence. The maid had laid out another bed for me in the room. Who knew that as soon as I lay down, she pulled me onto her bed to sleep. Now she's looking at me with disdain, really hurting my self-esteem!
"I'm afraid you can't sleep and disturb my rest, so as long as you're by my side, if I find you annoying, I can do this..." Suddenly, her hands covered my mouth.
The sudden attack made me nervous and tense, the purple light on my wrist was conspicuous for a moment, but it disappeared immediately without anyone noticing.
It's okay, almost lost it.
"Yu'er......" In the dark of night, Tang Gu suddenly called out: "Everyone says that once you enter the palace gates, it's like entering the deep sea. Although I was born into a royal family from a young age, my father protected me extremely well, so I'm not very familiar with the matters of the harem either. Do you think something will happen to me when I go? These past few days, I've been feeling uneasy all the time. Could it be an ominous sign...... Yu'er, Yu'er?" Another glance, and the person in front had already fallen asleep.
I was worried that Dantai Yue wouldn't be able to sleep and would come find me to chat, but unexpectedly she fell asleep first? Oh well, I don't know either. Now that I've entered the imperial palace, what will be waiting for me?
The moonlight outside the window is still bright and clean.
