I looked at his dark and deep eyes, which were like cold pools, trying to grasp and imprison a person's soul. But at this moment, I was more insistent and clear-headed than ever before, and said word by word: "

I would like to ask Your Highness to let you out of the palace."

After saying this, I still looked directly into his eyes calmly. There was still no expression on his face, but his eyes seemed to darken at the moment he heard these words.

"You want to go out to the palace?"

"Yes."

"Why do you want to go out to the palace?"

"..." I didn't expect him to ask this question, and I was stunned for a moment.

Why leave the palace? This is the most beautiful dream I have ever had every night. I will use many dreams to describe the future I expect, marrying a hard-working farmer, giving birth to a well-behaved child, and rising up every day.

I work and rest after sunset. At night, I will bring hot water to wash my husband’s feet and tell my children the most interesting stories in the books I have read...

However, all this has long been shattered.

I am broken by the man in front of me!

I swallowed back the bitterness that surged in my heart and said, "Your Highness, this slave has been in the palace for five years. According to the usual practice, he should receive amnesty."

After saying this, I fell silent, and so did Pei Yuanhao. He looked at me for a long time, and finally raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a vague arc that looked like a smile: "Okay.

Ah."

"..."

I was stunned for a moment, looking up at him as if I couldn't believe my ears - he agreed?

I looked at his face, and he seemed to be smiling, but his expression didn't seem to be smiling. It seemed that I couldn't understand what he was thinking at all. I couldn't believe that he agreed to me so easily.

, but he really agreed.

For a moment, I lost my reaction and looked at him blankly.

"Now, should you tell me where the jade seal is?"

He spoke coldly, which made me come back to my senses. When I raised my head, I found that his eyes were colder, or in other words, calmer than ever before.

Indeed, what he wants has always been clear, and it has never changed from Yuxi to that person.

The person who is really hesitant is me, and I have really suffered enough of being hesitant. I will never miss it again this time!

So, I lowered my voice and said, "I don't know where the jade seal is, but that night, when I was keeping vigil for the emperor, I heard the emperor say something to me."

"What did he say?"

"The emperor recited a poem - 'A day under the frost'."

"Under the frost?" Pei Yuanhao frowned suddenly, and I continued: "The emperor's current condition is not as simple as being unwell. He will fall asleep uncontrollably, and his speech is very strange."

difficult, going

It usually takes a long time to gather strength before he can say a word to the slave. That day he read this poem, said the word "Jade Seal" to the slave, and fell asleep. However, the slave guessed that this poem must be related to the "Jade Seal".

”

Pei Yuanhao listened to my words and kept silent. At this time, he silently said: "As soon as the sky is frosted... As soon as the sky is frosted...?"

He read for a long time before slowly turning his head and looking at me: "What else did he tell you?"

"No more."
