Since he was hiding from the Emperor, he had thought it through. Seeing that Qin Shuo had already spoken, the little palace maid immediately stopped her actions.
He took one step inside the door, but the other didn’t want to step in.
"Empress."
Zhi Lan had naturally been looking behind him the entire time, and upon seeing this, she anxiously stopped Hu Xiao who was still trying to go forward.
Originally, he wanted to go back to his room without feeling annoyed, but the province of men behind him was too dazzling. Even as an empress, he could not lose that person’s face like this.
"I didn’t know that His Majesty was following behind him. His Majesty should have made a sound earlier. Xiao Hui, don’t close the door. Let His Majesty in quickly."
The only person who could make Qin Shuo feel at ease if he wanted to blame him, was Hu Xiao. He laughed helplessly, he had been behind Hu Xiao the entire time just now, but he could do nothing about it, as this person had hardened his heart and refused to acknowledge him.
"Haha, I was just passing by. It’s normal for the empress to see me now."
He walked in with an indifferent expression, not feeling ashamed at all that the palace maid Eunuch had seen through their trick.
"Since Your Majesty is just passing by, then Your Majesty must have something to attend to. Your consort won’t stay much longer."
Seeing that Qin Shuo had already walked in front of him, Hu Xiao spoke each word.
Now that he had seen him and given him face, Qin Shuo could just leave.
"Empress, we have come specifically to look for the Empress. Why are you in such a hurry to chase us away?"
Qin Shuo naturally knew of Hu Xiao’s little temper. Since the current Hu Xiao did not want to see him, he insisted on standing in front of Hu Xiao!
"Your Majesty, why ask when you already know the answer?" Or does His Majesty think that the events of the past few days can now allow Your Majesty and Your Majesty to sit down and calmly discuss them? "
He was probably feeling rather helpless. Besides, he had been holding back for quite some reason these past few days. Suddenly, he wanted to say it out loud.
This was not the result that she, Hu Xiao, wanted!
"Empress!"
had always been aware of Hu Xiao’s boldness, but Qin Shuo never thought that Hu Xiao would be so audacious, but it was not the first time he had openly interacted with him twice. In these few days, Qin Shuo had already understood a bit of Hu Xiao’s grievances, but he had thought that Hu Xiao would continue to be indifferent to this matter.
"Could Your Majesty give chenqie an explanation?"
Even Zhi Lan, who had always been fearlessly by Hu Xiao’s side, was a little worried if she wanted an explanation in such an open and honorable manner. Qin Shuo was after all, a ruler of a nation.
"Then what explanation does the empress want?"
"Do you want us to treat Hu Xiao coldly from time to time? Or do you want me to pay attention to the whole court and let the empress suffer grievances? Or could it be that the empress had privately contacted the South Yue this time? Or perhaps the Empress had a relationship with Mo Zhu? Or is it the empress’s opinion? "
Qin Shuo spoke word by word, yet there was a lot of shock on his face, so it turned out that this person knew everything, and it seemed like he did not know what he was thinking at all.
"Forget it, let bygones be bygones. Chenqie only wants to ask Your Majesty how you feel about chenqie’s thoughts."
If there really was a difference, then there wouldn’t be any regret in leaving.
"So the empress was angry with me over this matter these few days?"
After Qin Shuo realized this, he seemed to have misunderstood Hu Xiao.
"Does Your Majesty think that I would pay attention to the matter from before?"
Hu Xiao angrily laughed, even though Qin Shuo did not say it explicitly, Hu Xiao strangely found out about this fact from her attitude.
He only saw that there were no longer any eunuchs of the palace maid by his and Qin Shuo’s side. Even the Zhi Lan who had been following him the entire time had disappeared without a trace.
The smile on her face became even brighter, Hu Xiao felt that if she did not take action against Qin Shuo, she would have let down the grievances that she had suffered for the past few days.
Hu Xiao walked over one step at a time, but Qin Shuo was still retreating one step at a time, and was somewhat regretting that he came over here with his.
Letting out a sigh, she did not care about anything else, stepping forward and hastily controlling Hu Xiao’s body before she could even react, then easily wrapping him up in her embrace.
Even though Hu Xiao was aware of Qin Shuo’s current abilities, she could do nothing to lower her guard. These were the only words that Hu Xiao could think of while she was in her embrace.
"Your Majesty, I believe you should still remember our agreement, right?" Can you let go of chenqie so easily? "
Unknowingly, Hu Xiao felt that she had gotten used to this person’s intimacy from time to time, but this person was extremely close to Xue Mier ...
Empress, I’ve been thinking about what you’ve told me these past few days. This is too unorthodox for me after all, and needs to be discussed properly. Why is the empress in such a hurry to put aside her relationship with me?
Qin Shuo’s words were clear enough, Hu Xiao was naturally not an idiot.
"Your Majesty, if you continue as per the teachings of your ancestors or continue along the same path as before, perhaps you will be fine. However, that does not mean that other countries and monarchs will be able to live for a long time as a result. Women do not have to be inferior to men, there are some things that a woman can do with care, South Yue can even be used by women, why are East Court so shallow? "
These words caused Qin Shuo to be stunned, the matter which he had never thought of before suddenly cleared up in his mind. That’s right, if South Yue was like that, then why couldn’t East Court!
Qin Shuo was actually not an emperor who had always been a high and mighty being, and since he felt that what Hu Xiao said was good, he would naturally ask humbly, but he did not let go of Hu Xiao’s arms.
Her warm look made him look as if he had returned to the time a few days ago when she was taking care of Hu Xiao’s injuries.
For the first time, Hu Xiao did not try to open her eyes.
The door was tightly shut. No one had heard the hubbub in the past, so the eunuchs of palace maid, who had been hiding in secret and observing, finally relaxed a little.
It was a pity that it was rather peaceful here, but other places were indeed a bit disturbing.
"Miss Zhi Lan, I have something to say to you!"
Zhao Qiyan, who had been drunk for several consecutive days, was currently standing in front of Zhi Lan’s door. His face was flushed red, and his body was swaying as he stood there, unable to move at all.
Yin Fufeng, who had followed them from afar, had a face full of ill intentions, but after seeing others, he became extremely worried.
