In the end, Hu Xiao still paid attention to Qin Shuo’s previous attitude.
She really could not understand how Qin Shuo could change his appearance every day, so Hu Xiao was not satisfied with the change and hid far away the moment she saw Qin Shuo.
It was not that Qin Shuo had not come to see Hu Xiao in the past few days, but every single time he would dodge to the side for a different reason. Now, if Qin Shuo did not know that Hu Xiao was deliberately hiding from him for the past few days, she would probably be a fool.
A stately emperor of the East Court had actually climbed up a wall, and no one would believe it even if he were to say it out loud.
"Empress, you know that it is only a temporary measure."
Qin Shuo was also furious, a dignified emperor could let go of his status, but Hu Xiao still did not let him go!
"Hehe, chenqie is only a weak girl. Your Majesty doesn’t need to explain to chenqie."
"Empress, since we have already said that you will be our empress one day, even if you die, you will still be our empress. If you want to leave us, you need not even think about leaving this life until Hu Xiao’s death!"
He grabbed Hu Xiao and said fiercely, but her eyes were extremely gentle.
"Why do you have to do this?"
Hu Xiao looked at Qin Shuo in front of him, her heart feeling a little strange. She admitted that she did not have much interaction with Qin Shuo, and it was just for an ally.
"Your Majesty, you and I are very clear that there is no relationship between the two of us. Right now, it is very worthwhile for you to abolish the position of Empress because of the presence of a hundred officials. Besides, chenqie knows that Your Majesty is in a difficult situation, so your Majesty can rest assured.
Hu Xiao thought that she was very reasonable, but why was it that the more Qin Shuo listened to himself, the worse his expression became? He didn’t understand it in his heart, but he didn’t want to give up this opportunity.
In the end, she, Hu Xiao, could not get used to the chattering days of the imperial harem.
"You always thought so?"
After a long while, Qin Shuo finally said that. He didn’t know that Hu Xiao always thought like that, and thought that it was only because of South Yue and East Court.
"Is that not the case?"
Raising an eyebrow, Hu Xiao looked at Qin Shuo strangely. Ever since the ancient emperor was heartless, if Hu Xiao had to believe that Qin Shuo was not because of the alliance between the two countries, Hu Xiao would never believe it.
"Yes."
With great difficulty, he opened his mouth and closed his eyes, making it impossible to see the emotions in Qin Shuo’s eyes. However, after hearing Qin Shuo’s reply, his heart quickly flashed with a trace of pain.
So because of this reason, Qin Shuo was able to make the hundred officials talk so much to his without restraint, thus allowing them to ignore her feelings and do things?
"Since that’s the case, Your Majesty, please go back. Your concubine cannot tolerate Your Majesty in this small temple."
She turned her back and did not look at Qin Shuo. So it turns out that the reason for his pampering was because of his identity behind the scenes. If this was really the case, Hu Xiao felt that she would rather not take those other things.
slowly turned around. The person who was sitting on the chair just now had already left, and the tea in the cup was still smoking. Hu Xiao suddenly smiled.
"Zhi Lan, I’ll take you with me. Are you willing to leave with me?"
Hu Xiao softly said to Zhi Lan.
"Where is the Empress going?"
Wasn’t it a bit unexpected, wasn’t it fine just now? Didn’t you say that you were going to watch a show?
"I heard that the crops outside the city are about to die. Let’s go take a look. "
Seeing that, Zhi Lan could only look at Hu Xiao, turned and left to pack her things.
Although she did not know what had just happened between Hu Xiao and him in the room, but Zhi Lan saw the sadness in her smile.
The journey was smooth and they soon arrived outside the city.
"His Majesty allowed Empress to leave just like that?"
Ever since Hu Xiao had left, Qin Shuo and Yin Fufeng had been standing behind him and watching him, but they did not move forward for a long time.
"Yin Fufeng, do you think we are wrong?"
Qin Shuo’s soft words caused Yin Fufeng to be slightly startled, and he looked at Qin Shuo with a strange expression, as though he did not understand what Qin Shuo had said just now.
"Forget it, you wouldn’t understand even if I told you. Send someone to protect the empress in the dark and let her relax for a few days. We’ll go pick up the empress when the Sui City is up."
After taking one last glance at Hu Xiao, Qin Shuo turned around and left. That group of people had already knelt at the entrance for a long time.
"The empress isn’t feeling well, so don’t disturb her these few days. As for the questions you all mentioned, I remember that you all vowed to force me that day. Didn’t you all say that the crisis in Sui City had passed? "So what does that mean?"
Qin Shuo had long since put away the friendship in his eyes, and coldly looked at the group of ministers kneeling on the ground as he spoke impolitely.
The few of them looked at each other, and all of them looked at Wen Fuchen.
"Reporting to Your Majesty, there has been a small problem regarding the construction of the canal, this matter was raised by the empress after all, I’m afraid we can only ask the Empress about it now."
Wen Fuchen persevered as he spoke, completely ignoring the discontent in Qin Shuo’s tone.
"Heh, I remember you saying that the empress’s interference in the imperial government is too serious and wants me to abolish the empress."
"But His Majesty did not abolish the Empress!"
Wen Fuchen straightened his body and looked at Qin Shuo with an neither haughty nor humble manner, but his eyes contained something that even Qin Shuo could not understand.
"That’s why I placed the empress under house arrest and abolished everything that had happened to her. Didn’t you all ask for this?"
Qin Shuo looked at Wen Fuchen anxiously, but after thinking about it again, he no longer cared.
"Your majesty, right now your Sui City is about to be disrupted. If your majesty still wants to continue with the previous matter, then this subject is willing to accept your punishment!"
After Wen Fuchen finished speaking, he took off his Dark Sand Rise and placed it in front of him.
"Minister Wen cannot accept this."
"Minister Wen cannot be so impulsive, His Majesty will not be like this."
"Yes, your majesty, your majesty, please advise Minister Wen."
They began to speak at once, and there were even some who wanted to go forward and take the hat Wen Fuchen had just put on the ground and place it on Wen Fuchen’s head.
Originally, they thought that Qin Shuo would be a little nervous, but after they all quietened down, not a single movement from Qin Shuo could be seen. For a moment, they could not even guess what Qin Shuo was thinking.
Everyone, you guys want to speak righteously and righteously when you are the successors of Empress. Now that what you guys have done before is proven to be wrong, you all have actually pushed all of this to Empress, and think that it is because Empress did not act, that is truly amazing.
