Chapter 740 Sneaking into the Bedroom
Therefore, it relieved Concubine Li of a lot of burden.
She didn't have to serve Emperor Jingyang, so she had time to catch her breath.
Thinking of this, Concubine Li said: "How can I sleep in this situation?"
Emperor Jingyang was quite calm, but she always felt like there was a string in her head that was always taut and she was afraid it would break at any time.
Every time she closed her eyes, nightmares came one after another. As for Concubine Li, she now has serious psychological problems.
She took the ginseng pigeon soup handed to her by Jianlan, drank a few sips, and asked, "Has King Nan Xiao written to me in the past few days?"
Concubine Li knew Prince Nan Xiao's temperament too well. He was not a generous man.
He is flexible but also very domineering and will not allow anyone to disobey any of his decisions, especially those around him.
When Concubine Li was out of favor, she hated King Nan Xiao's tyranny.
Because Emperor Jingyang didn't pay attention to her, she could have an affair with him without restraint and without any burden in her heart.
But now the situation is different. She is pregnant with Emperor Jingyang's child, and Emperor Jingyang is particularly fond of her.
King Nan Xiao asked her out at this time, so it would be wrong for her to go, and it would be wrong not to go either.
Concubine Li thought about it for a long time and finally decided not to go out.
Because if she doesn't go out, the only one who will be angry is King Nan Xiao.
But if she went out and was discovered by Emperor Jingyang, they would all be doomed to die.
Concubine Li felt that King Nan Xiao would certainly understand her considerations and concerns.
However, she forgot that not only did she stand the other party up, she didn't even reply to his letter and simply pretended that she didn't receive the letter from King Nan Xiao.
How could the already arrogant King Nan Xiao not be angry?
Concubine Li thought that since Prince Nan Xiao did not see her in Huayang Temple, he would definitely send someone to deliver a letter to her again.
Whether it is a greeting or an accusation, at least it proves that the other person has her in his heart.
Unexpectedly, Jian Lan said: "Reporting to the queen, the King of Nan Xiao did not send anyone to deliver a letter to the queen, and there has been no news from him these days."
Upon hearing this, Concubine Li was stunned for a moment. Her first reaction was, could it be that the other party no longer loves her?
She knew very well that this relationship was something she had asked for.
But as a woman, she also hoped to use this incident to test King Nan Xiao's sincerity towards her.
She would feel satisfied even if the other party could just write a letter to coax her.
As far as she could remember, King Nan Xiao had never tried to coax her in a humble manner.
On the other hand, Emperor Jingyang coaxed her several times and even gave her various jewelry to please her.
Although Concubine Li did not like these things, the thought behind this was precious.
Jianlan saw the disappointment on Concubine Li's face, her eyes flickered, and she said, "Your Highness wants to see the prince, why don't you go out and meet him?"
"The prince loves the queen so much, I think he will not be angry with the queen."
Concubine Li didn't even think about it and said directly: "No, if I go to see Zhenglang at this time, won't he know that I deliberately stood him up?"
Although Concubine Li really wanted to meet King Nan Xiao, she did not dare and could not take that step.
Thinking of this, Concubine Li made up her mind and said, "Since it's wrong, let's just let it go."
Anyway, she knew that she was safe now and the prince was safe too.
As for the rest, we will take it one step at a time and make plans slowly.
When it was late at night and everyone was asleep, Concubine Li lay down on the bed again. Although she still couldn't sleep, she had figured out a lot of things and felt much more at ease.
Suddenly, a dark shadow flashed past the window, startling Concubine Li.
She sat up and shouted, "Who, who's outside?"
"Someone, come quickly, there is an assassin."
But after calling several times, no one answered. The entire Weiyang Palace was still so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
Concubine Li became even more panicked. You know, every night there were palace maids and guards standing guard outside her bedroom.
Normally, she only needed to call out softly and the other party would hear the noise and come in, asking her if she had any instructions.
But now, even though she was calling so loudly, there was no response from outside.
Could it be that all the palace maids and guards outside have been killed?
This sudden thought frightened Concubine Li so much that a layer of cold sweat instantly broke out on her forehead.
What to do? What to do? She is pregnant now and has no martial arts skills.
Moreover, Weiyang Palace was far away from the Yangxin Palace where Emperor Jingyang lived. Even if she wanted to call for help, she would not be able to find anyone for a while.
Concubine Li was anxious and slowly reached under the pillow.
She remembered that she had hidden a dagger here for self-defense.
Maybe it can be of some use now.
She took the dagger in her hand, slowly lay down, and pretended to be asleep.
However, her rapid breathing revealed her inner nervousness and anxiety.
After a while, the bedroom door was pushed open.
A dark shadow walked in quietly and slowly moved to the front of Concubine Li's bed.
Concubine Li held her breath and didn't care who the visitor was.
She found the right opportunity, and before the other party could react, she picked up the dagger in her hand and stabbed it into the other party's chest.
The next second, a hand tightly grasped her wrist.
"We haven't seen each other for half a month, and you want to murder me?"
When Concubine Li heard the sound of a man gritting his teeth, she recognized him instantly. Who else could it be but Prince Nan Xiao?
However, the other person was wearing a black nightgown that covered his face and body tightly.
In addition, because the light in the room was very dim, Concubine Li did not recognize him at first.
She asked in astonishment: "Zhenglang, why are you here?"
King Nan Xiao snatched the dagger from her hand.
He pushed Concubine Li away and sneered, with obvious anger in his deep eyes.
"If you don't come to see me, then I will have to come to see you."
"I heard that you are pregnant with Emperor Jingyang's child. Is it true?"
His gaze fell on Concubine Li's lower abdomen.
It was still flat, with no visible ridges.
But King Nan Xiao knew that any news could not come out of nowhere.
Concubine Li always felt that the current Prince Nan Xiao looked a little strange compared to usual.
But she didn't have time to think about it, and hurriedly explained: "Zhenglang, listen to me, this is not the case."
Prince Nan Xiao glared at Concubine Li fiercely.
"Explain? Explain what? Explain how you cheated on me, huh?"
"Don't forget, it was you who got me drunk, climbed into my bed, and got me pregnant without my knowledge."
"It was you who told me in person that you would help me take back the throne and realize my revenge plan."
