Chapter 42: His Empress Disappeared Late at Nigh

Long Xiaoyuan used to sleep alone for more than 20 years in his previous 26 years of life.
When he came here, he slept with s.h.i.+ Qingzhou to save his life.
However, having slept with s.h.i.+ Qingzhou for only several months, he was unexpectedly not accustomed to sleeping alone.
It was late at night, and he already finished the shower. But, lying on the big bed, he couldnât fall into sleep!
Rolling over and back, he couldnât still sleep! It wasâ¦
He couldnât help but twitch his lips. As time was gone, he finally got up and casually put on his clothes.
Liu Xiangyang waited outside and hurriedly knelt on the ground when seeing Long Xiaoyuan.
Long Xiaoyuan said waving his hand, âStand up.â
âYour Majestyâ¦â
âWe go to the Qiankun Palace but donât disturb others.â
âYes.â Liu Xiangyang didnât dare to ask why Long Xiaoyuan wanted to go to the Qiankun Palace late at night, so he dutifully led the way ahead.
When Long Xiaoyuan reached the Qiankun Palace, the eunuchs keeping watching at night knelt on the ground. Neglect of them, he headed for the internal chamber but surprisingly met a young eunuch who guarded there, for the young eunuch used to stay outside.
He knew the name of the young eunuch. âLittle East, you keep doing your job, and Iâll go inside by myself.â
For fear that Little East would wake s.h.i.+ Qingzhou up, he spoke ahead of Little East.
He said those without a second thought, but Little East should kneel on the ground with a pale face after hearing this.
He slightly narrowed his eyes. âEn? Whatâs the matter?â
Little East spoke nothing and kept kowtowing.
He said with his face immediately darkened, âWhatâs wrong?â
Little East murmured, âYour Majesty, His Graceâ¦heâ¦â
He thought that something happened to s.h.i.+ Qingzhou and thereby hurried inside, leaving Little East who couldnât clearly express himself behind.
He thought s.h.i.+ Qinghzhou was ill, got hurt, or was in trouble.
But, he never expected that the internal room was empty with no one on the bed.
He was stunned.
Outside, Little East desperately kept kowtowing.
Long Xiaoyuan puckered his lips and at least knew the rule that the imperial concubines were forbidden to leave their palaces after nightfall, not to mention that s.h.i.+ Qingzhou didnât say he had things to deal with before Long Xiaoyuan went to the Imperial Study.
Long Xiaoyuan frowned and said coldly, âThatâs enough. You can excuse yourself.â
Little East suddenly stopped his actions and withdrew himself a few moments later, leaving a pool of blood on the ground caused by his grazed head.
Sitting on the empty bed with his lips puckered, Long Xiaoyuan was thinking of where s.h.i.+ Qingzhou went and that novel he had readâ¦
After a long time, he sighedâ¦
