Empress is in the harem again

Chapter 327
The two lay peacefully on the bed.

Shen Xi stared at the man who had fallen asleep, and slowly moved away.

She was not sleepy at the moment, turning over and over again, feeling bored.

She took a deep breath and let it out, and got up lightly.

She sat up and muttered silently, "Why come here to sleep if you have nothing to do, it's in the way."

It was quiet in the room, only the sound of the strong wind blowing outside and the raging and fluttering of leaves could be heard.

Shen Xi walked over him lightly, pushed aside the curtain, glanced at his unresponsive posture from the corner of the eye, poured a glass of water and suffocated in a sip, which relieved his throat a lot.

She casually put on an outer dress, opened the door and went out, losing the care in the room, and finally took a deep breath.

Seeing this, the night watchmen were about to salute.

Shen Xi quickly put a finger on her lips, hissed, and signaled her to keep quiet.

The palace man nodded respectfully and stood aside.

With clear eyes, Shen Xi sat in front of the stone steps and asked softly, "How long are you going to stand here?"

The night watchman was slightly taken aback, a little surprised by Shen Xi's question.

"Leave at Maoshi, and someone will come to change shifts at regular intervals."

The palace man followed her example and answered in a low voice.

Shen Xi nodded thoughtfully, sitting with her hands in her hands.

The palace people couldn't ignore her existence, the most honorable man in the world was lying inside, but the person who was supposed to be sleeping beside him was here.

She was silent for a few seconds before asking in a low voice.

"Why did the empress come out, but what can I order?"

"No, you can continue to watch the night, and you don't need to care about me."

Shen Xi's pupils were filled with the haze of dark clouds, and his tone was calm.

"Yes."

Having said that, the palace servant obediently retreated to the side.

Shen Xi just came out to get some air, the coldness eroded every inch of her body through the thin fabric.

After all, she was too cold to stay and returned to the room.

When he opened the door and walked in, he found that the man who was supposed to be sleeping was in front of the round table at this moment. Some of the candles were relit at some point, emitting a faint light that merged together, illuminating the layout of the entire room.

She stared at the man without blinking, "Why is the emperor awake?"

Rong Jinli looked sideways, his dark and bottomless eyes turned slightly, he got up and approached, holding her cold hand.

"Why are your hands so cold? In winter, it's very cold outside at night. Wear more in the future."

The man sat on the chair with his arms around her, tightly covering her hands, trying to convey the warmth of his body to her.

Shen Xi sat on his lap, slightly startled, a little at a loss.

"No, no, the concubine will recover later."

He said, "I don't want to sleep with ice cubes in my arms."

Rong Jinli flicked her forehead with his fingers, quite doting on her.

For some reason, Shen Xi felt flustered for the first time in the face of such eyes.

Probably because he didn't know how to respond, this kind of action didn't seem to be acting on the spot.

Without thinking, she pushed the man away and stood up.

"Your Majesty, you still have to go to court, so go to rest early."

After finishing speaking, she ignored the man's fiery gaze and got into the brocade quilt.

Shen Xi hid inside, put her warm hand on her heart at this moment, suppressing the feeling she had never felt before, and silently closed her eyes.

Gradually fell asleep.

But Rong Jinli only thought of her as a shy little girl.

When Shen Xi woke up, the man had already gone to court.

The colorful butterfly waits for Shen Xi to freshen up.

"Your Majesty, today all the concubines in the palace are going to pay their respects to the Empress Dowager, shall we?"

A slightly hesitant tone.

Shen Xi put down the wet handkerchief, with a casual expression, "Then go."
