That night, Qiao Yuange went to the emperor's bedroom as usual to see if the emperor needed more calming incense and whether there was enough lamp oil in the palace.
She carried her slightly tired body, like a corpse, and finally staggered to the side hall bedroom.
The emperor was lying on the bed, and his sleeping posture could be said to be quite elegant.
He put his hands on his chest and the quilt covered him tightly.
Qiao Yuange went over and planned to see how much calming incense was left.
She was just tiptoeing over when she heard a cold voice coming from the bed: "You still don't know how to come? I thought you were going to go with your cousin one day."
Qiao Yuange was startled by the sudden voice and turned his head. He carefully walked to the emperor's bed and asked curiously, "Why do you want to go to the emperor's place?"
When the emperor was asked this by Qiao Yuange, the expression on his face changed.
He even began to reflect in an instant, why did he say such strange things?
It is said that Qiao Yuange's previous life in the laundry department was not very happy. Through investigation, he has dug up Qiao Yuange's background thoroughly.
Qiao Yuange was also wronged and lived a depressed life.
At this time, her cousin came, and he was a prince. If it were anyone else, when meeting his cousin, he would definitely feel as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw and found a backer, and would tell him all the grievances he had suffered recently.
Qiao Yuange was already delicate and had such a pitiful look, coupled with that sweet voice, no one would have the heart to let her suffer any more, right?
Thinking of this, the emperor suddenly felt irritated for no reason. He immediately turned over and looked at Qiao Yuange.
Qiao Yuange was originally standing next to the emperor. When he saw the emperor sitting up, he was immediately startled and immediately stepped back.
But as luck would have it, there was a staircase behind the emperor's dragon bed. When Qiao Yuange came up, he was in a hurry and climbed up by stepping on the staircase.
As a result, she retreated too quickly and stepped on empty air, and immediately fell backwards.
Just as the back of her head was about to touch the ground, at that moment, the emperor was quick-witted and grabbed Qiao Yuange's arm and pulled her towards him.
Qiao Yuange originally felt that he would be knocked unconscious this time, but suddenly a huge force was exerted on his arm.
Her body was like a bow, stretching forward again. Just as she was about to hit the emperor, she immediately steadied herself and pushed the emperor's hand away.
As soon as the emperor's strength was gone, Qiao Yuange sat down on the steps.
She sat down on her butt, making a winter sound in the quiet night.
After hearing the sound, the emperor took a deep breath, and tried to hold it back, but in the end he couldn't help laughing. Then he lowered his head, with a smile on his face, and said to Qiao Yuange, "I think, judging from the sound, you must have fallen pretty badly, right?"
Although these words sounded like concern, Qiao Yuange actually heard a mockery in the emperor's words. The smile on the emperor's face was too obvious. If Qiao Yuange couldn't see it, could he be blind?
Qiao Yuange felt like his butt was broken into four pieces. Even if the emperor laughed at him, he couldn't say anything back. He just sat there with his teeth bared, groaning in pain, and didn't care about the emperor's ridicule at all.
She struggled a few times, trying to get up, but she kept trying and failed.
The emperor was sitting there, trying to control himself, but in the end he couldn't control himself and burst into laughter.
Qiao Yuange was already in considerable pain, and when he heard the emperor continuing to laugh at him, he became very angry. He immediately insisted on getting up, turned around and left.
The emperor had not expected Qiao Yuange to be so stubborn. He had been smiling before, but when he saw that Qiao Yuange seemed to be really angry, he leaned forward and said to Qiao Yuange from behind: "I say, Qiao Yuange, are you still angry? How did you guess about me before? Didn't you think that I was indifferent to family affection?"
The emperor was still thinking about the conflict between him and Qiao Yuange! He was still angry with Qiao Yuange, how could he have forgotten about it?
As a result, Qiao Yuange was angry at this time, which put him in a passive position.
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. He simply couldn't help but chase after her and ask Qiao Yuange how a maid could be so arrogant?
But Qiao Yuange's steps were so fast that he didn't even turn his head after he went out.
The next morning, Qiao Yuange woke up, but his butt was still painful.
She turned over in bed and saw the nanny push open the door and come in.
Qiao Yuange wanted to give the old nanny a gift, but the old nanny waved her hand and said, "I heard that you fell. Since you are not feeling well, you should skip the formalities. Here, I got you some ointment. Apply it to the affected area and it will heal soon."
Qiao Yuange paused for a moment, raised his eyes and said to the grandmother in surprise: "How...how did you know this?"
This shouldn't be the case. I fell on my butt yesterday, and only she and the emperor knew about it. How come the nanny also knew about it?
The head nanny walked over, put the ointment on the table, and said to Qiao Yuange, "It was the emperor who said that. When I went to see the emperor the other day, I saw that his face was not very good. He was indifferent to everything I asked, but he still asked me to prepare some ointment for you."
When the eldest nanny said this, her expression suddenly changed. She came over with a sly smile and sat down in front of Qiao Yuange's bed. She lowered her voice and said to Qiao Yuange, "Qiao girl, tell me the truth. What is your relationship with the emperor? Why does the emperor treat you with extra care?"
Carefully? Qiao Yuange didn't think so. Not only that, Qiao Yuange still remembered that after she fell, the emperor couldn't help laughing, which made her feel that the emperor must have a problem with his brain, so she didn't even think about it, and directly waved her hand and said: "No, I have no relationship with the emperor, I am just a maid."
"As for your feeling that the Emperor seems to treat me differently, that's just your overthinking. After all... the Emperor is a kind person."
When the head nanny saw that Qiao Yuange was eager to deny the incident, she immediately laughed, stood up, and the gossiping desire on her face suddenly stopped.
