Her ankle was still held tightly in his palm.
Su Jianyue's heart began beating rapidly again.
She was clearly wearing thick furry socks.
But he could clearly feel the temperature of Xiao Yuqi's palm.
and.
Last time in the hot spring pool.
Su Jianyue vaguely discovered some of Xiao Yuqi's unknown little quirks.
He was full of her.
Seems like I have a special... fondness for him?
Thinking so.
...
...
As expected, Xiao Yuqi slowly stood up.
Under Su Jianyue's incredulous gaze, he pulled off the plush socks on her feet.
Su Jianyue's white and plump feet are exposed.
The arch of his foot fit tightly into his palm, neither too big nor too small, just right.
Su Jianyue subconsciously shrank back.
As her gaze gradually widened, Xiao Yuqi tied a string of exquisitely crafted copper bells around her beautiful ankles.
The cold touch brought Su Jianyue back to her senses from her daze.
She drew her foot back.
The copper bells rang as she moved.
Su Jianyue's face suddenly turned red!
"You...what are you doing?"
Her voice was strangely soft.
She was extremely nervous and busy pulling the quilt over herself.
Then he lowered his head and smoothed every corner of the quilt.
This is not the end.
Su Jianyue couldn't get used to sleeping on the jade pillow that Xiao Yuqi usually used.
She pushed Xiao Yuqi's pillow out again.
He shrank back inside again.
Because of nervousness.
Su Jianyue didn't control the force of her retreat.
He sat down on the other side of the dragon couch.
In a blink of an eye, she returned to her room in the villa.
The packed suitcase was still standing alone beside the bed. Su Jianyue shamefully pulled up the quilt and buried herself in it.
Xiao Yuqi looked at the suddenly empty bed and didn't have time to catch his breath.
He laughed out loud without any warning.
He stood up straight, crossed his arms over his chest, and looked at the messy dragon couch.
Thinking about a particularly important question.
If he and Yue'er consummate their marriage in the future, this bed...
How to sleep well?
The next morning.
Su Jianyue woke up in Xiao Yuqi's arms.
What came into view was still Xiao Yuqi's bedroom.
Today, Xiao Yuqi did not go to court for the first time.
Su Jianyue stood up on tiptoe.
As soon as he stood up, Xiao Yuqi pulled him down again.
The tip of her delicate nose hit Xiao Yuqi's strong chest.
When Su Jianyue looked up, she met Xiao Yuqi's smiling eyes.
"What? You still want to run?"
Su Jianyue didn't manage to break free from Xiao Yuqi's hand.
She just gave up.
Lie down again.
"I didn't, I just wanted to..."
Xiao Yuqi hugged her and found a comfortable position to sleep.
"Want to go to the Queen Mother? You'd better not go at this time."
"Why?"
Su Jianyue didn't understand.
"It may not be convenient for the queen mother."
If it was just as Xiao Yuqi expected.
The marriage between the emperor's uncle and Xue Qingyan cannot be successful.
"There is no record in history of the Regent marrying a wife. I am worried..."
"Yue'er!"
He rested his chin on the top of her head and spoke earnestly.
"Neither you nor I can handle this matter."
You can say that he is selfish or that he is scheming.
The game has come to this point, if there is gain, there will definitely be loss.
This is an inevitable result.
It is not something that can be changed by human power.
"But……"
Xiao Yuqi opened his eyes.
Turn over.
He clasped Su Jianyue's hand with one hand.
"If Yue'er can't sleep, I don't mind reminiscing with her about what we didn't finish last night!"
A gentle tone, full of threat.
There was still a string of bells tied around Su Jianyue's ankle.
She was so frightened that she closed her eyes hastily.
"I fell asleep and am dreaming now, literally!"
It was still early and Xiao Yuqi had not slept well last night.
He hugged Su Jianyue and took a nap.
Get up after the Chen hour.
After washing up.
Su Jianyue accompanied Xiao Yuqi for dinner.
A young eunuch came over, whispered a few words to Duofu, and then left.
Duofu said respectfully to Xiao Yuqi: "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother ordered someone to tie up Miss Xue."
Xiao Yuqi was not surprised.
"Where's the Emperor's uncle?"
"The prince has just entered the palace. He should be on his way to Ci'an Palace now."
"Explore again and report again!"
"yes."
Su Jianyue swallowed the food in her mouth and asked, "Did you guess that the Queen Mother would do such a thing?"
Xiao Yuqi nodded.
"You don't know the Queen Mother. She has never been a kind-hearted person."
The former Wang was not like that, the former Concubine Xian was not like that, and the current Empress Dowager is even less like that.
"She has been chanting Buddha's name for many years, but she has not developed a compassionate heart. Even if you are to interact with her, you must not be completely unprepared. She loves the emperor's uncle deeply, and she hates him for marrying a wife. At this juncture, neither you nor I are suitable to get involved in their affairs. So you have a rare rest, just accompany me and have a good rest!"
Su Jianyue is a person who listens to advice.
Xiao Yuqi told her not to care, so she didn't.
only……
Su Jianyue looked around the huge palace.
Muttered softly.
"But, it's not fun here at all."
Xiao Yuqi raised his eyebrows.
"Then I'll take you to a place, okay?"
Su Jianyue's eyes were filled with anticipation.
As the year draws to a close, Xiao Yuqi is his busiest time.
But Su Jianyue finally managed to find time to accompany him.
Naturally, he didn't want Su Jianyue to watch him reviewing boring memorials, wasting their time alone.
In the long court.
The quaint and narrow corridor was exactly the same as when Xiao Yuqi left.
Every blade of grass and every tree here still maintains the same look as when Xiao Yuqi's mother was still alive.
The cultivated vegetable plots are planted with radishes and cabbages, which are abundant in winter.
Only bare vines were left on the grape trellis in the yard, with two bamboo chairs and a small square table that had obviously been repaired underneath.
"When I was a kid, when my mother was still alive, every summer, my mother and I would sit here to enjoy the cool air. Every vegetable patch here was turned over by my mother and I. When the vegetables were harvested, we would dry the leftovers into dried vegetables and save them for when there were no more vegetables to eat."
Look at every brick and tile here.
Xiao Yuqi fell into deep memories.
He was telling Su Jianyue about his past.
Su Jianyue listened with great interest.
"I was too young at that time, so my mother would ask someone to sell the dried vegetables and exchange them for some rice, flour and meat, which she would then cook and feed to me."
"But she herself is always reluctant to eat it."
Life was so hard back then.
But that was the happiest time in the first half of his life.
"Yue'er, I miss my mother!"
Over the years, whenever he was in pain, confused, and about to give up.
He would lock himself in this narrow courtyard, letting hatred fill his chest and turn it into motivation to move forward.
Come again this time.
Xiao Yuqi miraculously discovered that the hatred in his heart had disappeared without a trace without him even noticing.
Su Jianyue originally wanted to hug Xiao Yuqi and comfort him.
But when I turned around, I saw...
