Thinking of this, Qingyin said angrily, "I am indeed meddling in other people's business."

As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere suddenly became cold.

Nangong Yuan looked at Qingyin and saw that she bit her lower lip unconsciously again, and a dark current flashed in her eyes.

Nangong Yuan suddenly looked at the two people on the ground and said in a colder voice: "Get down!"

"Yes, slaves, take your leave."

When the two of them walked out of the door and stood in the yard, they found that their backs were already soaked with cold sweat.

At this moment, the fear in my heart gradually subsided.

"Let's go. I'm afraid we won't be able to come to this Cining Palace again."

"elder sister."

The twin sister called softly.

Before leaving, she couldn't help but look back again.

On Qingyin's side, the atmosphere did not improve after the two left.

Qingyin also noticed that Nangong Yuan was indeed in a bad mood.

Qingyin looked up at him, "Your Majesty, is your head still hurting?"

Nangong Yuan glanced at her, then snorted lightly and said nothing.

Qingyin moved lightly with lotus steps and walked behind Nangong Yuan, "I'll give you a massage."

Nangong Yuan didn't say anything, nor did he refuse. He just followed her closer, and the faint fragrance of the crabapple instantly lingered around his nose.

He didn't need to exert much effort, and the scent mixed with the faint fragrance penetrated into his body.

He just said he had a headache, and it was true.

Ever since he got a new amulet, his soul-leaving syndrome seemed to be cured, but his headaches became more and more frequent.

Although it's just a dull pain.

But in the end it just makes people more irritated.

Today, he really had no intention of dealing with the memorials, so he came here to take a look.

I didn't expect that this heartless guy would ask him to watch people dance.

What's so good about other people dancing, but if she dances.

Thinking of this, Nangong Yuan suddenly asked, "Can the Queen Mother dance?"

Qingyin paused, then replied naturally: "No."

Little liar.

Nangong Yuan didn't expose her, and continued to chat with her, "I saw you watching these Hu girls dancing every day, and I thought the Queen Mother had also learned some."

In a place where Nangong Yuan couldn't see, Qingyin's eyes flickered, but her voice was still as calm as ever, "Why should I learn those things?"

Nangong Yuan nodded, "Indeed, why would the Queen Mother learn this?"

Qingyin always felt that there was something else behind his words.

But since he didn't say anything, she pretended not to understand.

…

That night.

Qingyin took a bath as usual and then let Qiuzhu go down to rest.

But today my heart is particularly restless.

Ever since he danced in front of Nangong Yan that day, that person has never appeared again.

In fact, she didn't really want to drive him away.

At this moment, a figure suddenly approached quietly through the open window.

Without hesitation, he went inside and closed the window tightly.

Hearing the sound, Qingyin subconsciously looked behind her.

"Ayan." After calling out subconsciously, Qingyin didn't know how to continue.

After all, it was me who drove him away that day.

Nangong Yan stood there, clenched his fists, and was a little hesitant.

He found that he had not been out for more than twenty days.

He then discovered that A Yuan had asked for another amulet.

But this amulet doesn’t seem as good as the one A Niang asked for.

Although he was trapped, A Yuan didn't seem to be feeling well either.

He shouldn't have come tonight, but he was afraid that if he really disappeared one day, he wouldn't have time to say goodbye to her.

"What's wrong? Is it because of what I said that day that you didn't come?" Qingyin asked sadly.

"What?" Nangong Yan vaguely felt that things were a little off, so he asked.

Qingyin shook her head. "Nothing. By the way, when will you return the Begonia hairpin you took from me that day?"

Nangong Yan's whole body stiffened. "I really like that hairpin. Can I give you a new one next time?"

He knew there was no hairpin.

It must be A Yuan pretending to be him.

He knew.

Qingyin hummed, "That's more like it."

That night, Qingyin felt that this was Nangong Yan. Nangong Yan must have been drunk that night.

For three consecutive nights, Nangong Yan came to see Qingyin.

Qingyin also has the habit of leaving a window open after taking a bath every day.

Nangong Yuan would smell the increasingly strong fragrance on his body every morning when he woke up, with a calm look in his eyes. But if you looked closely, you could find a crimson tint deep in his eyes.

…

"hunting?"

Qingyin paused holding the hairpin.

Qiu Zhu took the hairpin and helped put it in Qingyin's bun. "His Majesty just sent someone to pass on the oral order. We will set off tomorrow."

Qingyin was a little confused. "Are you in such a hurry? Shouldn't we prepare for this in advance?"

Qiu Zhu explained, "There's a hunt every year at this time of year, and it's still quite late this year."

Qingyin then remembered that this was indeed the case.

When the emperor travels, the momentum is extremely grand.

Qingyin was still not fully lucid when she boarded the carriage.

She caught a glimpse of bright yellow out of the corner of her eye. She paused subconsciously, nodded to him from a distance, and then stepped into the carriage.

Nangong Yuan withdrew his gaze and sat back in his six-horse carriage.

The spacious carriage moved forward slowly.

The hunting ground was only about eighty miles away from the palace. The team set out early in the morning and arrived in the evening.

Although it is a hunting ground, there is a palace built nearby.

As soon as Qingyin got off the carriage, a special maid came to greet her, "Empress Dowager, you should soak in the hot springs to relieve your fatigue."

When Qingyin heard that there was a hot spring, she naturally agreed.

After sitting in the carriage for most of the day, Qingyin was tired and exhausted. After getting off the hot spring, she lay down on the jade stone beside the pool.

The mist in the pool curls up, half covering and half concealing people, drawing them into it.

Qingyin soaked in the water for a long time, and Qiuzhu came over hurriedly, "Queen Mother, it's time to get up. It's not advisable to soak in hot spring water for too long."

Qingyin stood up slowly, but before she could stand up completely, she fainted.

Water splashed everywhere in an instant.

This frightened Qiu Zhu so much that she subconsciously cried out, "Empress Dowager!"

Nangong Yuan, who was soaking in the hot spring in the pool nearby, suddenly opened his eyes, stood up from the pool, picked up a robe and put it on, then jumped onto the red wall next to him.

The view of the pool below the wall is clearly visible.

Qiu Zhu was seen struggling to lift the person out of the pool.

The ups and downs in the water were clearly visible. As Qiu Zhu took the person farther and farther away from the water, the fair skin jumped out of the water.

But Qiuzhu's strength was ultimately insufficient, and she stopped by the pond, not knowing what to do.

At this time, Nangong Yuan jumped down from the wall.

Hearing the sound, Qiu Zhu was frightened and asked, "Who?"

When she saw people, she didn't know whether to be afraid or not.

"emperor……"
