But I think you are dirty, what should I do?
Su Qingli took a sip of the snow frog soup and said with a pleasant face, "They say I use my beauty to please men, and that my seductive appearance is only good at pleasing men in bed. Do you think I should pull out their tongues?"
Hearing this, Fu Xuechen's eyes darkened, and a trace of pity appeared in his eyes, "A Li, it's my fault for not keeping a close eye on the palace maids' mouths, causing you to suffer."
"It doesn't matter. What they said is not true anyway. It is obviously you who is trying to please others in bed." A cunning flashed in Su Qingli's eyes, but her tone was exceptionally high.
Fu Xuechen couldn't help but glance outside and reminded her, "Ali, now that you have entered the palace, your words and actions will be magnified by people with ulterior motives. You must not make such words known."
Not to mention that she would never say such reckless words, but now she not only blurted them out, but also said them so ostentatiously, which was obviously deliberate.
In fact, he didn't care what others thought of him, he was just afraid of affecting her.
Su Qingli put down the bowl and said in a muffled voice, "This palace seems different from what I imagined. It's so strict and oppressive that I'm a little uncomfortable with it."
"I wonder how the matter of the queen's enthronement is going. Do the court officials have any objections?"
"Forget it, I don't think I can adapt to life in the palace."
After saying that, she stood up, lifting the hem of her skirt.
Fu Xuechen's eyebrows jumped, and he had to quickly pull her in, bringing her into his arms and hugging her tightly, letting her sit on his lap. "I was just saying something harsh, you can say whatever you want to say or do. The Queen's coronation ceremony will be held in three days. You can only stay by my side for the rest of your life, and you are not allowed to go anywhere else."
Thinking of the opposition from the ministers at the court this morning, a shadow fell over his heart.
However, what he was worried about was not that his authority would be damaged, but that if those rumors reached her ears, it would make her sad.
Su Qingli's eyes lit up, and she leaned over and buried herself in his arms, "You treat me so well, how can I bear to leave you?"
Seeing that she was in a better mood, Fu Xuechen spoke tentatively, "Ali, can you call me Achen? Or any name you like, it's fine."
He didn't want to hear her always calling him that distant, indirect "you".
Every time he heard it, it was like a reminder to him that every word she said could be thrown to anyone in the world without any change, not just to him.
Su Qingli's face instantly darkened, and she spoke in an extremely affected and respectful tone, "Yes, you are the Emperor now. From now on, I will always remember the hierarchy and address you as 'Emperor'."
She immediately used her hands to push open his chest and tried to get off his lap. "How can I, a humble woman, be worthy of sitting on the emperor's lap? Please let me down."
Upon hearing this, Fu Xuechen almost vomited blood.
What the hell is going on? How could he possibly mean that?
Even though he knew she was doing it on purpose to irritate him, he was still so angry that he felt dizzy. But when he thought about it carefully, he realized that this was what he deserved.
Just follow her wishes and don't make her unhappy again.
Fu Xuechen held the person in his arms and coaxed him gently, "Don't leave, and don't call me that. I was wrong."
Every word of his compromise reached her ears. Su Qingli lay on his shoulder, but her face was cold and numb.
Fu Xuechen was still comforting her in a low voice, but there was no change on Su Qingli's face. She even felt a little annoyed and simply closed her eyes and pretended to take a nap.
After a long time, Fu Xuechen noticed that the person on his shoulder was breathing evenly. He turned his head and looked at her carefully, only to find that she had fallen asleep without him knowing when.
He sighed softly, picked up the person gently, and carried him to the bed in Kunning Palace. After carefully tucking in the corners of the quilt, he turned and left, rushing back to Qianqing Palace to deal with the mountain of government affairs.
As soon as the bedroom door closed with a slight sound, Su Qingli on the couch suddenly opened her eyes. Her eyes were clear, sharp and cold. There was no trace of sleepiness at all.
Three more days passed.
Despite the various discussions in the court, Fu Xuechen single-handedly suppressed all objections and performed the ceremony of conferring the title of queen on Su Qingli.
The bells and drums were ringing, the ceremonial procession was magnificent, and this was the highest honor bestowed upon a woman in the world, but it did not cause a ripple in Su Qingli's eyes.
Fu Xuechen walked into Kunning Palace in the night. The candlelight in the inner room was warm yellow, and he saw Su Qingli sitting in front of the mirror.
She was completely unaware of him walking towards her.
It was not until he reached out and touched her that Su Qingli suddenly came back to her senses. There was a hint of disgust in her eyes that she had not had time to conceal when she looked at him.
Fu Xuechen retracted his hand, lowered his head and looked at the ground, trying to hide the pain in his heart.
Su Qingli was startled to lose her composure, as if her thoughts had been discovered. She quickly threw herself into his arms, her voice muffled and full of pouting: "You didn't even let the palace servants know before you came in. I wasn't even ready to welcome the emperor."
"What are you welcoming? There is no emperor here, only your husband." Fu Xuechen sighed lightly.
"In that case, can I ask my husband to help me find my mother and brother, and have them come to the palace to talk to me?" As she said this, she stood on tiptoe and kissed the corner of his mouth.
"Okay." Fu Xuechen vaguely realized why she was obsessed with the position of queen.
After receiving the promise she wanted, Su Qingli immediately loosened her grip and began to stretch her stiff back. "I've been wearing the heavy court robes for a whole day, and my bones are almost broken."
"Tired?" Fu Xuechen asked softly, his palms considerately covering her slender shoulders, massaging them slowly with just the right amount of force. "Is it sore here?"
Su Qingli instantly felt relieved of her discomfort and glanced at him with mixed feelings.
But his focused profile and slightly pursed lips showed a pure seriousness.
Suddenly, it overlapped with the memory of that morning when he clumsily but extremely seriously scrubbed the sheets.
But he lied to her, saying that he was going on a business trip far away, but in fact he was marrying the eldest princess without telling her!
How ironic.
Su Qingli then broke free from his hand without leaving a trace and ordered him to leave: "I'm tired, you can go back."
Fu Xuechen's body froze, and for a moment he didn't know what he had done wrong.
He looked at her cold back, stood there in silence for a long time, and said sadly: "Today is also our wedding day...Ali, let me stay, okay?"
Su Qingli's voice trembled a little, "But I think you're dirty, what should I do?"
It was rumored that he used his good looks to seduce the eldest princess into spending days in bed with her, and then killed her when she was distracted and infatuated, thus seizing the throne of the emperor.
"What?" Fu Xuechen felt as if he had been stabbed hard.
There was a suffocating silence in the air.
Fu Xuechen couldn't stand this misunderstanding, so he stepped forward and said softly, "Ali, the princess and I are innocent. From the beginning to the end, I have only had you."
He was ready to accept her doubts, but he never expected that Su Qingli would just turn her head and give him a vague smile, "Well, I believe you."
She doesn't love him, so why should she care about those things?
The reason I said that was just to avoid being in the same room with him and to drive him away.
