Chapter 1560: 1560: Feeling So Empty
“Actually, having the emperor turn foolish might not be such a bad thing,” Qian Jiyun said, his expression chilling.
“Hmm?”
Eldest Brother Yan raised an eyebrow and looked at him, puzzled.
“If he’s foolish, that’s an explanation for the ministers. Do they really want a silly, foolish emperor to continue sitting on the throne? On the other hand, if the old emperor is still lucid and acts out of desperation, we can’t predict what he might say in front of the ministers.”
Qian Jiyun said.
Eldest Brother Yan closed his eyes for a moment.
Indeed, Second Brother’s words made sense. The emperor becoming foolish was a good thing for them.
But at the same time, it could also be a bad thing.
“Jiyun, you should know that if he dies, there are many things we won’t be able to find out,” Eldest Brother Yan said.
“Yes, I understand,” Qian Jiyun responded. This was exactly why they had never used the Truth Elixir on the old emperor.
They could use it freely on the head of the Luoyang-Shao family; after all, it wouldn’t make him stupid. But for the old emperor, not even An Jiuyue dared to use the Truth Elixir on him, because its effect was to make the person who took the medicinal pills answer their questions only. They wouldn’t speak of anything else.
They didn’t know what other secrets the old emperor might be hiding. If in the future they discovered there were secrets they didn’t know about, it would then be too late to ask.
“Let’s proceed with the original plan. In two hours, we’ll head over together,” Qian Jiyun decided.
“Alright.”
Eldest Brother Yan nodded and turned to go keep watch over Prince You.
“This eldest brother really takes great care of Prince You,” An Jiuyue commented with a smile as she watched him go inside.
But before she finished speaking, Qian Jiyun bent down and scooped her up, “The night is deep, let’s go back to rest first.”
“Isn’t it supposed to be in two hours…”
“When the time comes, I’ll wake you.”
An Jiuyue didn’t feel like resting; she wouldn’t be able to sleep at this hour. But Qian Jiyun clearly thought otherwise, taking her directly into his private space.
“This is…”
Was this Qian Jiyun’s space? It felt so empty, with hardly anything inside.
“Jiyun, your space feels so empty. There are only some things in that corner,” she remarked.
“I haven’t had the chance to arrange it yet. After Daqing Kingdom is stable, we’ll go to Huayan Peak. Whatever you want to turn the space into, I’ll make it happen. How’s that?” Qian Jiyun offered.
“Hmm?”
An Jiuyue arched her eyebrows.
According to her preferences? She thought it was a pretty good suggestion. But such a huge space, how long would it take to arrange? And besides…
“Your space, it can be upgraded, right?” she inquired.
“I don’t know,” Qian Jiyun answered bluntly.
He hadn’t yet had the time to explore it properly since acquiring it. He would look into it when he had some free time.
“There’s a bed in the space. I’ll accompany you to rest,” he said as he put An Jiuyue down, looking towards the large bed in the distance. It was the only thing he had seriously placed inside the space since getting it, knowing the space could bring people in with him.
When An Jiuyue was tired, she could rest well in his space.
“Ha, you really are…”
An Jiuyue looked up at the large bed. In such a vast space, that bed was the most conspicuous object, wasn’t it?
“I was wondering why the bed in your room at Qiongzhi Courtyard had disappeared. So it was taken into this place,” she said.
They used to sleep separately, but later, the man started sharing her bed. Recently, she discovered that the bed in his room had vanished.
She had thought maybe he was worried that after a quarrel, she might kick him out to sleep on his own bed, so he had disposed of it.
