I have traveled through time, who am I afraid of?

Chapter 718 Imagine Beautiful Wishes for Beautiful Things

The sharp blade cut through the flesh, and the long sword fell to the ground. After a dull sound, it was quiet...

The wind blew a gust of bloody smell, and then the bloody smell was blown away by the next gust of wind...

it's over!

In Prince Yi's Palace in the capital.

Prince Yi Xiao Jingyi had no intention of going to any of his wives' or concubines' rooms to rest tonight. He returned to his study, feeling a little drunk.

After entering the inner room of the study, Xiao Jingyi didn't even ask anyone to help him wash up, and just fell on the bed with his clothes on.

I was sleeping until midnight when I heard a few clapper sounds in the distance, announcing the night watch.

Xiao Jingyi, who was originally in a light sleep, actually had a dream—and it was a bad dream, a very scary dream.

In the dream, I was chased and surrounded by many people.

He kept running away with his men... kept running away...

And those who were chasing them were still following closely behind them.

He chased them until they could no longer run, until he was exhausted and collapsed in the wilderness.

The people who were chasing them surrounded them again.

He watched as the people around him were killed one by one, and the bloody smell filled the air around him.

Just when he was in despair, suddenly, a long sword stabbed straight at him, and the shining tip of the sword was already in front of him...

"what!"

Xiao Jingyi screamed and woke up!

At the moment he woke up, he could still feel that the tip of the long sword in front of him was so real;

And at the tip of his nose, he seemed to really smell a strong smell of blood.

Xiao Jingyi glanced around the room and confirmed that everything he had just seen was a nightmare;

He also confirmed that he was sleeping in the study of his own palace.

Xiao Jingyi raised his hand to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead and calmed down. After a while, his heartbeat stopped as it was before.

How could I have had such a dream?

Could it be that... this dream... means something?

Xiao Jingyi shook his head vigorously, picked up the tea that Changgui had prepared for him on the high table beside the bed, and drank it in a few gulps. Only then did he manage to catch his breath.

"Changgui!"

Xiao Jingyi shouted loudly to the outside.

Changgui, who served Xiao Jingyi personally, had been waiting outside. His master had drunk some wine tonight and was a little tipsy, so he didn't dare to go away.

As expected, he heard his master calling him at this moment. He quickly answered, pushed open the door and entered the study, then quickly walked into the inner room and came close to the bed.

"Master, what are your orders?"

Changgui bowed carefully and asked.

"What time is it now?"

Xiao Jingyi asked.

"My Lord, it's already halfway through the third watch!"

Changgui replied.

"It's already three o'clock in the morning..."

Xiao Jingyi murmured.

I turned around and looked outside. The stars and the moon were dim, so tomorrow would probably not be a good day.

"Is there any news in the mansion?" Xiao Jingyi was just about to ask if the mansion had received any news.

As soon as he said this, Xiao Jingyi realized that it was already three o'clock in the morning and the operation tonight was scheduled to start at three o'clock in the morning.

Even though those people sent to Yunxiang Mountain were swift and efficient, and had killed those who should be killed and abducted those who should be abducted, the operation had just ended at this moment.

It would probably be after dawn before they could send back the message or return to Beijing to report.

Thinking of this, Xiao Jingyi waved his hand, signaling Changgui to leave.

"You go down, I will sleep for a while!"

"Yes, Master!"

Changgui stepped forward, poured another cup of tea, and placed it on the high table beside the bed as usual. Then he bowed respectfully, tiptoed out, and closed the inner and outer doors behind him.

The candlelight flickered in the room.

Xiao Jingyi sat cross-legged on the bed, staring at the flickering candlelight on the table beside him.

But in my mind, I was imagining what the scene would be like on Yunxiang Mountain now?

In the guest house of Qingguo Temple... there should be a bloody smell everywhere, and corpses everywhere, right?

As for the stunningly beautiful Miss Leng... at this moment, she might be on her way down the mountain;

Or perhaps he was already in a carriage heading to the villa.

I hope that the stunningly beautiful Leng will not be frightened by the bloodiness tonight.

Thinking of this, Xiao Jingyi slowly lay back on the pillow, with one leg on the bed and the other leg hanging under the bed, just looking up at the ceiling of the tent and thinking about things.

Xiao Jingyi also wanted to continue sleeping, but he was no longer sleepy.

Xiao Jingyi thought that although he had promised his two advisers Jiang Fang and Tong Lian not long ago that he would not rush to the villa to see the beautiful cold lady in the next few days.

But, what to do?

There is just a thought in my mind that I can't suppress.

In order to win over this beautiful lady Leng, he did not hesitate to make a temporary decision, take action in secret in advance, and even directly destroyed the Anguo Mansion, the maternal family of beautiful lady Leng!

Who made those people in the Anguo Mansion so stubborn and unwilling to obey the Prince Yi’s Mansion? Keeping them here will only bring disaster!

Furthermore, if he destroyed the support of the Duke of Anguo's Mansion and could no longer marry Xiao Jingyu, the beautiful Leng, who was already in his hands, would be able to rely on him wholeheartedly.

In order to get Leng Rongyue, this peerless beauty, I have caused such a big fuss tonight. I think I will have to face a lot of troubles in the future. My efforts have been huge.

Fortunately, tonight, the beautiful Leng has been taken to the villa and belongs to me, so my wish has been fulfilled!
