Chapter 119 Forgive Him?

Night falls.

The solitary figure finally moved. He stood up and walked out of the hall.

Liang Yao had prepared the dragon sedan chair long ago. When he got on, the eunuchs carrying the sedan chair knew where to go without even needing any instructions.

It was late at night, and the six palaces in the east and west were no longer as noisy and bustling as during the day. Silence reigned as the emperor quietly arrived at the gate of Changle Palace.

There was no emotion on Xie Chen's face. After taking a look at the plaque, he entered the palace gate and took his men to the back hall.

As usual, after sending away the palace maids on night watch, he stood in front of the bed.

The woman closed her eyes tightly, her black hair spread out on the soft pillow made of gold thread, and she looked like she was sleeping soundly.

Xie Chen knew how bright and lively a woman's eyes looked when they opened, how coquettish and clingy she was, how she could soften anyone's heart. His eyes, as calm as Gu Bo's, finally changed, a trace of attachment and longing flashed across them.

Xie Chen stared at her for a long time. Finally, he couldn't help himself and sat down on the edge of the bed. He carefully traced her outline with his fingertips, from her eyebrows to the tip of her nose and then to her red lips. He gently stroked them.

Xie Chen's eyes were filled with tenderness, and he wanted to lean over and kiss her.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he lowered his head, the woman's eyelids began to tremble, and she looked like she was about to wake up.

Xie Chen stood there stiffly, not knowing whether to kiss her or not, and he didn't dare to move for fear of waking her up.

But he failed to do so. The next moment, the woman under him opened her hazy eyes.

She first blocked the light with her hands, and after getting used to it, she looked around with half-closed eyes.

She didn't seem surprised at his arrival at all. She murmured something, then opened her arms towards Xie Chen and said in a sweet voice, "I want a hug."

Xie Chen was slightly surprised. Has she calmed down?

Why does it feel weird?

Seeing the woman's beautiful lips pouting higher and higher, he suppressed the strange feeling and held her in his arms.

Pei Tingyue was very satisfied being held in his arms. She first sniffed in his arms, and after smelling the familiar faint fragrance, she completely relaxed. She rubbed in his arms again and acted coquettishly for a while.

Her behavior made Xie Chen feel a little helpless.

Now, he really couldn't understand or guess what she was doing.

Did she no longer hate him? Did she forgive him?

After acting coquettishly, Pei Tingyue seemed to remember the sad things again and started crying again, crying very pitifully.

"I love Your Majesty so much, yet Your Majesty treats me like this."

"There is no one in the world as evil as the Emperor!"

"Woo woo woo woo."

“…”

Xie Chen's heart was broken by the complaints of grievance.

He wiped her tears with his fingertips and lowered his head, which was rare. "It's my fault. It's my fault."

Pei Tingyue raised her head with tears in her eyes and spoke in a sobbing voice,

"It's your fault! It's your fault!"

After she finished speaking, she seemed to be still angry and pushed Xie Chen hard.

The soft and fragrant beauty in his arms disappeared, and Xie Chen felt reluctant to let her go. However, he did not dare to hug her again. He could only lower his eyes and wipe her tears.

Pei Tingyue's clear eyes were filled with sadness. She half-sat and glared at him for a while, then suddenly raised her hand.

“Pah.”

A small but crisp slapping sound rang out in the hall.

Xie Chen's face was slightly tilted and he took a long time to turn around.

He didn't react for a moment and was a little confused.

It wasn't until he felt a tingling sensation on his face that he realized he had been beaten.

This was the first slap the noble emperor had ever received. After he recovered, a trace of anger rose from the bottom of his heart.

He gritted his teeth and looked at Pei Tingyue.

Pei Tingyue stared at him with innocent eyes, with no intention of apologizing at all.

She brushed his hand away, and seeing red marks on his cold, jade-white face, she straightened up and kissed him with heartache.

"Does it hurt? Just a kiss from me will do the trick."

When he felt the softness, Xie Chen lost all his temper.

He even felt.

A slap in the face, it's worth it to expose this matter.

Pei Tingyue kissed him little by little, and finally touched his slightly cold lips.

Finally, she murmured, "Today's emperor actually has a temperature..."

Xie Chen listened to her shocking words.

Without temperature, is a person still alive?

The strange feeling in my heart became more and more obvious.

she…

The next moment, Xie Chen understood where this feeling came from. A soft voice rang in his ears: "This dream is becoming more and more real."

Xie Chen: “…”

He was so angry that he laughed.

Did she think this was a dream?

So what does the slap he received mean?

So, this matter was not over at all, he just got slapped by her for nothing.

Xie Chen felt depressed and a little sad.

Did she dream about him often? Did she cry like this every night? What was it like when she woke up from her dream, thinking they had reconciled?

Thinking of this, Xie Chen felt a burning pain when he breathed.

He hugged the man tightly in his arms.

Pei Tingyue snuggled in its arms obediently at first, but gradually realized that something was wrong.

She groped Xie Chen's chest, the feeling in her hand becoming more and more real. She stood up from the bed with a thud, looked around, and then twisted her arm.

It hurt so much that tears came out.

The pain made her realize that this was not a dream, but reality.

Pei Tingyue stood on the cold floor tiles with her bare white feet. She tilted her head and looked at the person sitting beside the couch. She asked in disbelief, "Your Majesty?"

Xie Chen realized that she was completely awake.

For a moment, I didn't dare to look her in the eye.

"It's me."

Tears welled up in Pei Tingyue's eyes. She wiped them with the back of her hand, but they wouldn't stop. A trace of embarrassment flashed in her eyes. She stood there biting her lip, not knowing what to do.

She smiled sadly, "Your Majesty, are you here to see me laugh at your joke? To see me, even after being deceived, still begging for mercy like a fool?"

Xie Chen stood up and retorted, "I never thought so."

She had a miscarriage in the middle of the night, and now she was still so excited when she saw him. Although he had a thousand words to say, he also understood that now was not a good time.

Xie Chen walked out and stopped when he passed her. "It's late at night and the dew is heavy. You'll inevitably catch a cold if you step barefoot on the floor tiles. Go back to the couch and rest."

Then he left the bedroom without staying for long.

Pei Tingyue squatted there and cried for a long time. It was not easy to get rid of her emotions.

After gradually calming down, she returned to the bed and stared blankly at the azure tent.

She felt that she would not be able to sleep tonight.

It felt so good to slap the emperor!

Now that I think about it, that tingling feeling in my fingertips is still there!

at the same time.

Xie Chen left the bedroom but did not leave.

I sat alone in the dark side room for a long time, listening to her sobs gradually subside, and my heart felt like someone was pulling it hard.

He frowned in thought.

Maybe he came too early and woke people up. It seems he has to come later next time.

You can't make those little movements either, so as not to wake people up.

During the night, Xie Chen quietly went to the door of the bedroom several times, but saw that the man was not asleep, which made him feel even more uncomfortable.

He did not leave Changle Palace until a hint of dawn appeared in the sky.
