Chapter 1620: Something Happened
vers in one swift motion."I'm done," she said only after she confirmed the quilt was covered properly.As soon as the words left his mouth, Mo Yunjing pushed open the door without a moment's delay. He...Hearing that Yun Si could bring the Bright Lamp or that someone from the Western Regions' Evil Clan might be involved, Shuangshuang was actually not surprised at all.
However, she is after all a member of the Western Regions' Evil Clan. She helped An Xue Tang out of gratitude for what An Xue Tang had done for her. But, she is still a member of the Western Regions' Evil Clan, a young mistress of the clan. There are some things she should say and shouldn't say. No matter who it is, not a single word can be extracted from her lips.
So facing Yun Si's probing, her face didn't change one bit.

Yun Si and Mo Jun Yi both wanted to know the truth, but they weren't fools. Seeing Shuang Shuang acting so clueless, they both knew it was impossible to get a word out of her.
After leaving Shuishui's room, Mo Junyi turned to Yun Si, "What do you think"
"It should be a lantern, or the person behind him."
Mo Junyi nodded in agreement, "Hmm."
Although Shuangshuang didn't directly answer the question, she didn't refute it either. In that instant, the two of them guessed that Mingdeng was most likely responsible for what happened tonight.
But knowing who the culprit is isn't enough. What they really want to find out is what motive this person had for causing such a commotion tonight
After a moment of silence, Yun Si spoke, "Your Highness need not worry too much. I have dispatched several men to keep watch. No matter what schemes this person behind the scenes has, as long as they make a move, they will surely reveal their intentions."
Mo Junyi nodded slightly, "Hmm."
There is a relationship between Shuangshuang and Mingdeng. Since we don't know what will happen next, we can only send more people to keep an eye on them.
Right now, there's no breakthrough to be found here with Shuangshuang. It's pointless to stay here any longer. The two of them could only return to their own courtyards for now. As for the rest, they'd have to wait until daybreak to discuss it further.
……
This night, besides the commotion in Fu’er's courtyard, Jingtang Garden wasn't much better either.
An Xuetang, who had finally fallen asleep, didn't sleep soundly all night. She had just drifted off when she had a dream.
In her dream, she encountered Mo Yunjing again. However, for some reason, this time the Mo Yunjing in her dream kept his back turned to her throughout.
No matter how she called out to him, he just wouldn't turn his head. An Xue Tang was still thinking, since he wouldn't turn around, then she would just walk over herself. She had to see what he was up to, actually not even giving her a proper look.
Ke Mo Yun Jing seemed to have seen through her intentions long ago, so before she could even get close, he reached out and pressed her in place.
Then, with surprising speed and a gentle tug, he pulled her around.
"Mo Yunjing, what do you want to do"
He didn't answer, but by now he had turned around, pressing his body against her back, resting his head on the nape of her neck and breathing softly into her ear.
Feeling his warm breath, An Xue Tang inexplicably sensed a possessiveness and aggression in him, as if they were about to burst forth.
His strong arms held her tightly in his embrace, preventing her from turning around. The strength in his hands was immense, making it impossible for An Xuetang to break free.
Just as she was about to question Mo Yunjing what on earth he was doing, a baby's cry suddenly rang in her ears.
"!"
An An in Jingtang Courtyard suddenly burst into tears. The child's cries startled her awake instantly, and she opened her eyes abruptly.
Looking at the familiar furnishings of the house, the space beside the bed was empty. There was no sign of Mo Yunjing anywhere.
"Originally this was just a dream..." An Xuetang only then realized that she had unknowingly sweated all over her back.
After she came to, she immediately threw back the covers and got out of bed, walking toward the crib.
When An'an suddenly burst into tears, Ning'er and the other two girls in the room also woke up.
Ninger had already picked up An'an and was trying to soothe him, but An'an was different from Pingping. When he cried, no one could calm him down except their princess and the crown prince.
An Xuetang walked over and took An An from Ning'er's hands.

Ninger looked at her face, pale as though she was ill. Her hair was damp with sweat, and a trace of worry flashed in her eyes.
At this, she exchanged glances with Shou'er and Kang'er standing beside her. She then gave them a slight nod and turned to leave, preparing to go to the kitchen to make some soothing soup for their princess as a postpartum tonic.
To be honest, they were truly worried. Their queen hadn't been able to get a good night's sleep for quite some time, and if this continued, her health would definitely suffer.
……
An An cried for a few moments, but then his crying stopped quickly after An Xue Tang hugged him.
His sudden outburst of crying didn't seem like a big deal to anyone present. After all, he was just a child.
He started crying for no apparent reason, and then fell asleep right after someone soothed him. If he felt hungry, he would cry, but once he was fed, he would continue sleeping.
These days they take care of these two children, and they are used to such things.
So when An An suddenly burst into tears tonight, no one really paid much attention. Even An Xue Tang herself, holding An An, didn't notice his clenched fists were abnormally purple.
After lulling An'an to sleep, An Xuetang didn't indulge him and quickly put him back in his crib.
Although both of her sons were by her side, at this very moment she still felt a hollowness in her heart and couldn't seem to muster any energy.
Her head was fuzzy, and she figured it was just because she hadn't been sleeping well lately.
So, after Ning'er brought the soothing tea back, she didn't need any persuasion from Ning'er and the others this time. She was very obedient and quickly drank the whole cup of tea in one gulp.
"...“
Ning'er and the others raised their eyebrows, looking at their princess's appearance, becoming even more worried.
After finishing her soup, An Xuetang said, "It's getting late. You should all rest well."
After she finished speaking, she turned and climbed back into bed. Once there, she immediately closed her eyes as if she were truly exhausted.
Ning'er and the others looked at each other, none of them knowing why the princess had suddenly become so different. What was going on
Can she sleep now or not

Some people are worried, but there's nothing they can do about it.
……
The next morning, all was silent. A sliver of light crept over the eastern horizon, delicately seeping into the pale blue sky. A new day gradually approached from afar.
Mo Junyi was still the same as always, arriving at An Xuetang's room when it was time for breakfast and having a meal together with her.
He worried that telling about last night's events too soon would affect An Xuetang's appetite, so he endured until both of them had finished breakfast. Only then did he look at An Xuetang with a solemn expression, "Mother, something might have happened to Uncle Fengming."n's eyes lit up with joy. She quickly said, "I know that Fourth Brother has quite a few skilled fighters and assassins in his hands. Perhaps we could find a way to deal with the new imperial concubine...
