Chapter 227 Not Fun

Xuanyuan Ling is in a good mood at the moment, Chen Qing is bolder, the green head card has been withdrawn for so long, and today he took the initiative to come to the door.

He was originally furious. Everyone cherishes the opportunity to sleep with the emperor, but Chen Qing found excuses to withdraw her green card. She hadn't been to the harem for six days, and he was getting more and more upset. But after Chen Qing's behavior today, he felt that it was not him who was upset.

To be honest, it was he who had troubled Chen Qing in the beginning. With Chen Qing's temper, she would naturally be angry if the green card was withdrawn. But even though she was angry, she still coaxed him to come, didn't she?

Xuanyuan Ling was in a good mood then. He had originally planned to have dinner, but as it was getting close to dusk he headed towards Zhaohua Palace. Coincidentally, he happened to see Zhou Guiren and Chu Linglong coming out of the Imperial Garden after strolling around.

The two of them naturally bowed when they saw Xuanyuan Ling. After all, Chu Linglong was pregnant. Xuanyuan Ling said, "No need to bow."

Concubine Zhou rarely sees Xuanyuan Ling, and from his words she knows that Xuanyuan Ling is worried about Chu Linglong's pregnancy.

Chu Linglong thanks you.

Xuanyuan Ling had no intention of chatting any further, so he asked a few questions and then left.

Concubine Zhou and Chu Linglong looked at the direction Xuanyuan Ling was going. It was quite obvious that they came out from the Imperial Garden. Where else could they go along this road? Naturally, they were going to find Concubine Xi.

Chu Linglong glanced in the direction of Xuanyuan Ling, but immediately looked away.

Concubine Zhou subconsciously glanced at Chu Linglong's belly. It was fine when there was no one else to compare with, but when she was with Chu Linglong, Xuanyuan Ling was obviously more concerned about Chu Linglong, which made her feel as if Xuanyuan Ling didn't remember her.

In fact, Concubine Zhou was right. Xuanyuan Ling could only say that she looked familiar. Comparing Concubine Zhou with Chu Linglong, he had at least seen Chu Linglong twice more. She had saved the third princess and was pregnant, so naturally he paid more attention to her. He really didn't remember Concubine Zhou very well.

It can't be said that I am doted on, so naturally I don't pay much attention to it.

Concubine Zhou didn't know that Xuanyuan Ling really didn't care much about it, but she was thinking about her belly. She had talked about it with Chu Linglong before. In comparison, she felt that it would be nice if she was pregnant.

Just as she was thinking, Chu Linglong asked, "What's wrong with my sister?"

Concubine Zhou said casually: "The Emperor does favor Concubine Xi."

Isn't it pampering? I haven't been to the harem for a long time, and now I'm going again.

However, the two looked at each other and said nothing. Now, those in the palace who were more concerned about Shen Zhizhuo's matter were doubting the fact that Concubine Xi was favored. Was such favor really favored?

Chu Linglong thought to herself that it was good to have someone as eye-catching and favored as Shen Qing, so that the child in her belly would not be so conspicuous, right? After she entered the palace, she had no relatives around her, and now this child really made her care about it.

Xuanyuan Ling did not take the chance encounter seriously until he arrived at Zhaohua Palace.

Chen Qing was reading a book outside before the sun set. Xuanyuan Ling saw that she was engrossed in reading and went over to take a look.

But I saw Shen Qing was actually looking at the chess manual.

Shen Qing heard the noise and thought it was Wang Lu: “Add some tea.”

Xuanyuan Ling raised an eyebrow when he saw how relaxed she looked, and actually took out the teacup that was placed next to her.

Zhao Hai was waiting ten steps away, but he didn't dare to open his mouth. Neither did anyone else. Wang Lu was serving on the side, and he was used to not informing the emperor when he came. When he saw the emperor coming over with a teacup, he immediately reached out to take it and hurried to change the tea.

Xuanyuan Ling actually waited here for a while. When Wang Lu came over, he reached out and took the teacup, then went back.

Zhao Hai felt that he was used to it, and he looked calm at the moment. Yes, wasn’t it just the Emperor handing tea to Concubine Xi?

Compared to being slapped in the face, having the dragon robes soiled, and other things, this is nothing!

He turned around and immediately gave Wang Lu a look, saying that ten steps were not enough, and he should stay further away.

Xuanyuan Ling put the teacup back to Chen Qing. Chen Qing didn't even look at it, but picked it up and was about to drink it, but found that the lid of the teacup was still there.

Shen Qing put down the chess book in his hand, turned around and saw that it was indeed Xuanyuan Ling: "Why is the emperor always silent?"

Xuanyuan Ling said: "I saw you were absorbed in your thoughts and didn't disturb you. Is that my fault?"

Shen Qing heard what he said and reminded him: “It’s easy to get into trouble.”

Okay, now I’m thinking about those accidents.

Xuanyuan Ling changed the subject: "How come you realize it's me now?"

Chen Qing had already stood up, and shook hands with Xuanyuan Ling and said with a smile: "I was thinking about the emperor, and the emperor is here."

In fact, the people who usually serve her closely, such as Chunhua Fangyun and Wang Lu, all know her habits. When she reads, she is more focused, holding the book in one hand and the teacup in the other. In order to make it easier for her to drink, they will considerately take off the tea lid after placing it next to her.

Xuanyuan Ling wouldn't stare at her all day long, so naturally he didn't know about the habit of Zhaohua Palace serving her.

But he was very pleased with what Shen Qing said. When he went to the imperial study earlier, he already felt that she missed him. Now what she said in person was even more interesting, right?

"Did you go outside the Imperial Study today?"

Shen Qing looked at him eagerly and stopped talking.

Xuanyuan Ling originally wanted to ask her if she was still in a bad mood, but now seeing her like this, he thought that the matter was over. He was originally upset, but after being comforted by Chen Qing, he felt that he had wronged her by pulling her along on the pretext of being in a good mood that day.

This little girl doesn't like this, but sometimes... Xuanyuan Ling himself can't explain why, why he can't help himself when he is with her.

Of course he was too embarrassed to say such a thing, it was embarrassing.

"It didn't hurt you, did it?"

He wasn't just being reckless, after all, he knew Shen Qing was delicate.

Shen Qing still didn't say anything, just looked at him.

Xuanyuan Ling couldn't help himself: "Okay, it's my fault."

Shen Qing said, "I was just angry at the time, but I got better later. I was really tired at that time. Your Majesty will need your consent in the future."

When Xuanyuan Ling heard this, he thought that this man was getting too demanding. He was just throwing a tantrum before, but now he was setting rules for him?

Where did this twisted logic come from? Xuanyuan Ling wanted to be angry, but he couldn't get angry. He couldn't get angry. Now he was not angry about things like Shen Qing withdrawing the green card by himself.

She was just asking him to make a scene, so why was he so angry? But he still had to refute: "What? From now on, it's not me who will turn over your card, but you who will turn over mine? Am I waiting for your visit?"

She is really brave. I wonder what is she thinking about all day long.

"What about respect and inferiority?"

Xuanyuan Ling raised his eyebrows and asked Shen Qing to pinch his palm again.

It didn't hurt, just a little naughty, and it was a little itchy when he tickled her, so he couldn't help but pinch her little hand.

Xuanyuan Ling really made her look so serious, her tone was helpless: "Why are you so noisy? You make a scene when things don't go your way?"

Shen Qing suddenly looked proud: "The emperor likes it."

Xuanyuan Ling choked, and now his palm was scratched again: "Besides, it's not fun for the emperor to do this alone, right?"

The sun is unobstructed.

Xuanyuan Ling glared at her.

Shen Qing didn't look scared at all.

He's really spoiled. Just think about it, he was so cautious at the beginning when she hurt him and he was throwing a tantrum, but now he is not cautious at all. She has mastered the control over him. Xuanyuan Ling also found that he could not refute her. Occasionally he would make a fuss, but it was because he couldn't help himself. On weekdays, it is not fun for him to be alone.

She is quite right.
