The concubine is also very good today

Chapter 75 Nightmare
Jing Yu looked at Xu Ruyi eagerly, gently tugged on her skirt and begged for mercy, "Shall we sleep together?"

He sincerely begged the little aunt to let him go, and stop telling this story!
But Xu Ruyi looked thoughtful.

"Actually, I haven't figured out the ending of the story, and I don't know if the painted skin girl will fall in love with that boy..."

While tugging on Xu Ruyi's skirt, Jing Yu said perfunctorily, "Yes, yes! I will! Let's go to sleep!"

"Okay, since you're sleepy, let's go to bed." Xu Ruyi gave up and lay down on the bed honestly, and looked at Jing Yu face to face. She just looked at Jing Yu with such interest, He whispered softly: "Remember to miss me in your dreams!"

Jing Yu: "..."

He had a premonition that he would not be able to have any good dreams tonight.

Sure enough, after he fell asleep, he dreamed of an angry incident in his previous life when he was 16 years old!
That year he finally accepted a big order from the court, which was to draw a set of full-body portraits of court ladies, and send them to the palace after they were finished.

That night, when the painter brought the painted paintings to his shop for processing and settled the wages, he went to see the batch of portraits in person.

He clearly felt that he had returned to the original time point in his dream. After stepping into the shop, he closed the door of the shop. There was no clerk in the front hall of the shop, and there was only faint candlelight in the dark room.

In front of him were those portraits.

Now that he had recognized what the princesses in the palace looked like, he flipped through the portraits and checked for any problems.

This one belongs to Empress Dowager Jiang, and it looks kind.

This one is by Xu Changjiao, with a touch of aura.

Xu Mingshu's is worthy of being the eldest sister, and one can see that kind of grace and luxury from her face.

Xu Jin'er's, no, no, her face is much different from the previous ones.

Another one is...

Jing Yu clearly remembered that the last one should be Xu Ruyi's. When he came that morning, he also praised her as the only one among these princesses who had a beautiful appearance.

But when I looked at it again at night, the last painting turned out to be a blank sheet of paper.

He once thought that something was wrong with the painter, but the painter insisted that he didn't know what was going on.

Jing Yu looked at this blank painting, and his whole back felt chills.

Only then did he realize that the door of the shop was open.

how can that be?He had obviously closed the door!
Jing Yu suddenly felt a chill behind him, he didn't dare to turn his head, but he could clearly hear something behind him.

Jing Yu's heart beat more and more violently, and he almost exhausted his courage for the rest of his life before he slowly turned his head away.

And behind him, a girl with a graceful figure, wearing gorgeous clothes, is standing in front of the mirror in the front hall, carefully checking whether the clothes fit well.

Jing Yu was so frightened that cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

Who is she?How did she get in? !

However, just as Jing Yu was staring at the girl in horror, the girl also turned her head around.

The moment the four eyes meet, what Jing Yu sees in his pupils is actually the alluring Princess Zhaorong Xu Ruyi in the painting!

Jing Yu didn't dare to speak, only to see Xu Ruyi smiled slightly: "This dress fits you well. Thank you, little man~"

Then, Jing Yu heard a "shua", and the person who was standing in front of him just now disappeared in an instant!

Just when Jing Yu was immersed in panic, he heard the voices of common people talking outside: "The tower is on fire! I heard that it was the order from the third son-in-law to burn all the remnants of Empress Dowager Jiang to death!"

"Isn't Princess Zhaorong also on it?"

"Is this too cruel?"

"Empress Dowager Jiang has fallen, and her followers will naturally suffer as well."

"Things about the court, talk about it!"

……

Jing Yu didn't know when he woke up, but when he opened his eyes, what he saw was Xu Ruyi's sleeping face, he could smell the faint scent of milk on her body, and he could also hear her long breathing.

Seeing her safe and sound, Jing Yu felt an inexplicable sense of security in his heart.

He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and fell into insomnia again.

He thought, even if it was a kitten or puppy, there would still be some affection after taking care of her for a long time, even if it was a transfer, she had to be given to a responsible person.

However, he searched a lot, but did not find a suitable candidate.

He didn't know who the next third son-in-law would be, but he felt that if he really left, it would be as if he had rewritten Xu Ruyi's fate with his own hands.

He was afraid that his abdication would make Empress Dowager Jiang decide again and choose an unreliable husband-in-law for her. One year later, he would hear the news of Princess Zhaorong's death.

For a moment, he didn't dare to leave her in the capital alone, as if he ran away alone and abandoned her for life.

Jing Yu suddenly made up his mind, before he was fully prepared, he couldn't leave so vaguely.

But after waking up the next morning, he received a letter from Sledgehammer.

Sledgehammer dared to come in and secretly report the situation to Xu Ruyi when Xu Ruyi was not around.

"Second Lord, I went to see that little brother last night. He said that he was seriously ill and only had three days. He wanted you to go to the Qianqiu Inn at Haishi three days later."

At this time, Coal had just returned from having breakfast in the kitchen, and found that Xu Ruyi was not in the room, but Sledgehammer and Jing Yu were discussing the escape plan.

Jing Yu asked in amazement: "This is strange, wasn't he all right the last time I saw him?"

"Hey! The situation is serious! And once this person gets sick, his mood will change drastically. When I saw him yesterday, his temper was indescribable. He was not so fierce before. He is a good person. I heard you If you want to delay for a few days, it will be like a frying pan, saying that if you don't go after three days, he will burn down your shops, one after another!"

When Jing Yu heard that this person threatened him, he said angrily: "Is he crazy? Isn't the money paid to him on time? He is given a sum of money every three days, and he himself has an incurable disease. Why bother taking out your anger on innocent people?"

The sledgehammer waved his hand and said: "There are two extremes for people who are about to die. Either they suddenly do good deeds and accumulate virtue, or they are crazy and want to find someone to back them up. He is emotional at this time, so let's take care of it and see you on time in three days. Isn't he fine?"

But Jing Yu has changed his mind now, he doesn't want to disappear in such an unknown way, and he doesn't want to leave Xu Ruyi alone for no reason...

"Didn't you tell him about our current situation? I've been grounded, and I can't get out at all!"

"But he doesn't care! All he knows is that you want to break the contract. If you break the contract, he will take revenge on you! This kind of dying person has nothing to fear, it's the most terrifying thing! Lord, you must never break the contract!"
