After dinner, Qingshuang sat with Qingyin for a long time before saying goodbye and leaving.
Qingyin pinched her shoulders and felt a little tired.
Qiu Zhu immediately came over and rubbed her shoulders, "Queen Mother, is this strength okay?"
Qingyin murmured "hmm" softly.
"I have something to say, but I'm not sure if I should." Qiu Zhu observed Qing Yin's expression. Seeing that she had her eyes closed and had no intention of stopping him, she continued, "Although Lord Xiao is only a seventh-rank military officer now, he accompanied His Majesty on that hunt, and he was also with His Majesty when they went in together.
This servant thinks that this Master Xiao must have caught His Majesty's eye. If the Madam is willing to marry him, it would be a good thing."
Qingyin suddenly opened her eyes, then closed them again. "My sister has someone in her heart. If we force her to be with Master Xiao, they will become a pair of enemies, which will hurt both of them."
Qiu Zhu didn't speak again.
At least she knew that the Queen Mother had no intention of forcing the relationship.
That man had lived a lonely life for half his life, and she still hoped that he would have a smoother life in the second half.
After kneading for a long time, Qingyin waved her hand and said, "I'm going to sleep for a while. You can go down and rest."
Qiu Zhu discovered that since the Queen Mother and the Emperor had been together, he no longer called himself Ai Jia in front of her.
She knows.
The Queen Mother probably doesn't want to be reminded of her identity all the time.
Qiu Zhu sighed inwardly and stepped back.
Qingyin took light steps and just as she lifted the curtain of the inner room, she was suddenly met with a pair of burning and gloomy eyes.
She abruptly retracted her steps, her expression quickly turning cold, "Prince Su."
Nangong Yi raised his hand, and Qingyin immediately took a step back. His hand fell in the air for a long while before slowly lowering it. "Qingniang, long time no see."
His face, which was as gentle as jade, now had a bit of sinisterness. He took a step closer to her and said, "Qing Niang, I saw everything that night."
When Qingyin heard this, she felt a surge of anger in her heart.
This person still has the nerve to bring up this matter, if he hadn't put a curse on her.
But now, seeing the man's face full of regret, she felt a little happy.
"Really?" Qingyin asked back mercilessly.
Nangong Yi thought Qingyin didn't know what he was talking about, so he approached again and said, "That night you were drunk, and I saw Nangong Yuan enter your tent. He didn't leave until dawn. If I reveal this to others, what do you think you would do? Will Nangong Yuan protect you?"
At this point, he sneered, "That's right. If this matter gets out, how can he want to protect you? Maybe he'll give you a cup of poisoned wine to let this matter sink in forever."
Nangong Yi felt like he was going crazy.
I'm going crazy with jealousy.
I'm going crazy with regret.
And it was I who caused all this. I was the one who sent her to Nangong Yuan with my own hands.
He hated Nangong Yuan, but he hated himself even more.
Qingyin turned sideways and snorted coldly, "So what? I truly love him. Even if that day comes, I won't make things difficult for him. It's just a cup of poisoned wine, I'll drink it."
Nangong Yuan was shocked.
As soon as he heard the secret guard say that Nangong Yi went to the Queen Mother, he took advantage of the fact that the two courtyards were connected, came from the hot spring, and hid here.
The Queen Mother's attitude towards him has changed so much in the past two days, so he naturally has doubts.
But I still don't know what she is trying to do.
Just when he heard the secret guard mention Nangong Yi, he suddenly remembered that the two of them almost got married.
It wouldn't be unreasonable if she seduced herself for him.
But now, she said that she truly loved him.
Love him?
He still had some doubts.
Just one drunken night and I fell in love with myself.
This is a bit too...easy.
But before he could think, Nangong Yi had already lost control and grabbed Qingyin's wrist, "Love him? Why do you love him? He's just a thief."
Qingyin was about to order him to let go.
She heard a noise in the courtyard. Thinking that the courtyard across from her was where Nangong Yuan lived, she quickly broke free and said, "Hurry up and leave! If someone sees us, do you want to spread the scandal of the Queen Mother meeting Prince Su secretly?"
Nangong Yi's eyes were gloomy, and at this moment he suddenly thought, let it go if you know.
Seeing how determined he was to risk it all, Qingyin couldn't help but get anxious.
"Nangong Yi, why are you still so selfish? I begged you to take me away. What did you say? You said that the late emperor was so kind to you and you couldn't let him down. Therefore, you can be worthy of me."
Nangong Yi suddenly laughed, and he said hurriedly: "Qingniang, you are just blaming me, right? You still like me, right?"
Qingyin felt that this person was simply picking up what he wanted to hear and misinterpreting what he wanted to hear.
"That's enough! I've never liked you and I never will!"
"The Emperor has arrived."
Two voices sounded at the same time.
Qingyin lowered her head as if exhausted, "If you don't leave now, he'll come in."
Nangong Yi could only reluctantly say, "I won't give up," before striding away.
When Nangong Yuan came in, he saw Qingyin leaning against the pillar. He walked over and took her into his arms, "What's wrong?"
But his eyes were fixed on the place where Nangong Yi had just grabbed him.
This person has always had delicate skin.
He knew it must be red without even looking.
Qingyin looked up at him, a barely perceptible trace of grievance in her eyes, "It's okay. Didn't His Majesty say he wanted to have lunch with me today? You didn't come."
Nangong Yuan pinched her nose amusedly and asked, "Who sent someone to tell them that your sister is here?"
"Hmph, anyway, it's His Majesty who broke the appointment."
"It's my fault. How does the Queen Mother want to punish me this time?" Nangong Yuan coaxed.
A seductive smile slowly emerged on Qingyin's charming face, "Then the punishment is... Your Majesty, kiss me."
Nangong Yuan leaned over and gently held her lips, "Is this okay?"
Qingyin was forced to raise her head and hummed, "Hold me."
Nangong Yuan held the man up against the pillar, while Qingyin stretched out her arms and wrapped them tightly around his neck.
A breeze blew in from outside the window, lifting the gauze curtain gently.
Nangong Yuan pressed her hard against the pillar, kissed her all the way down, and skillfully untied the ribbon in front of her.
…
…
This afternoon, Qingyin woke up in the hot spring water.
She remembered that afterwards, she said she wanted to take a bath.
Qingyin opened her eyes somewhat dazedly.
Nangong Yuan was in a good mood and kissed her eyebrows, "Awake."
Qingyin was about to speak when her whole body froze, "What are you doing..." and didn't go out.
Nangong Yuan didn't say anything else.
He just responded to her with his actions.
He ended it abruptly yesterday because it was her first time.
Today, of course, we have to get our money's worth.
When Qingyin woke up again and didn't see Nangong Yuan, the surging love in her body slowly subsided.
This stinky bug.
"Empress Dowager, you have to get up and eat." Qiu Zhu heard the movement on the bed and hurried in to light the lamp.
Qingyin sat up and asked, "What time is it now?"
As soon as I said this, I realized my voice was very hoarse.
