Leftover women crossing the harem: competing with the king for the world

Chapter 246 Nightmare Part 3
Guyue knew that Lin Zhishi was suspicious of her, so she had to have a proper reason to cover up her dislike.

In order to eliminate Lin Zhishi's suspicion of her, she had to take out the jade lock that Yu Beizhou had given her long ago.

Lin Zhishi took the jade lock over, glanced at Guyue lightly, and said, "Guyue, I believe in you, but we need to be more cautious in the future."

Guyue nodded.
"Go down, I'm tired."

Gu Yue stared at Lin Zhishi's hand holding the jade lock and slowly got up and backed out.

That night, Lin Zhishi tossed and turned, but couldn't sleep.

After such a long night, she finally fell asleep in a daze, but when she opened her eyes suddenly, she saw Xiao Sui's face dripping with blood enlarged in front of her. Horror, without the slightest expression, just exuding a sad breath.

Sitting up abruptly, Lin Zhishi was startled to feel that he was sweating profusely, and panting for breath, he summoned the maid.

After Xiao Sui's death, she was replaced by a maid to serve her. She was a tall and handsome court lady, who was older than Xiao Sui. She might have stayed in the palace longer, and her attitude towards Lin Zhishi was even more humble.

The palace maid fetched a pot of hot water for Lin Zhishi.

Lin Zhishi took the hot towel she wrung to wipe her face, and in the middle of the night, she let out a sigh of relief.

"Is the empress having a nightmare?" the palace maid said.

Lin Zhishi responded lightly, and heard her say, "I heard from people in Qianwang Palace these days that Prince Qian also has nightmares all the time."

"Prince Qian?" Lin Zhishi heard her unintentionally mentioning it, interrupted her and asked, "A nightmare?"

"Back to the empress, yes, every year at this time the prince will have nightmares. The people in the palace of the prince are looking for a prescription, but it is said that it has no effect."
