Wait…you like being a dog?
Everyone was caught off guard by this sudden turn of events.
But there was indeed a word "汪" written on the paper.
Concubine Sun asked in disbelief, "Concubine Ji... are you talking about... Qin Lixue? Is that the Lord Qin who comes to the study every day?"
Wu Qing nodded heavily.
Concubine Zhang couldn't help but ask Wu Qing, "Concubine Ji, what does this saying of 'being a dog' mean? What is the specific practice?"
On the one hand, she felt it was strange, but on the other hand, she couldn't resist her curiosity.
——That is Qin Lixue, the most powerful person in the court right now.
He was handsome, had made many achievements, and had a smooth career. In terms of character, everyone in the court said he was upright.
If Concubine Ji hadn't said it, they wouldn't have known that he was that kind of person.
"This..." Wu Qing hesitated, "Can I tell you this? I'm afraid that if I tell you this, it will have a negative impact on Mr. Qin's reputation."
Concubine Lin knew that she was going to act strangely, so she said, "Go ahead. Everyone is curious about what kind of face Lord Qin has under his seemingly serious appearance."
With the Imperial Concubine's permission, Wu Qing tugged at the hem of her skirt and said, "Actually... it's not a big deal."
"He just likes to imitate dogs and bark while writing letters."
Wu Qing said, "I have known him since childhood, and I knew about his quirk at that time. But in recent years, his illness has become more and more serious, and it has not improved."
Wu Qing sighed deeply, "I am also a half-doctor, I can't just stand by and watch someone die, so... I allowed him to be my dog."
"So... Concubine Ji, you are helping Qin Lixue heal his heartache in a unique way?" Concubine Zhang realized.
Under the guidance of Concubine Ji, she found Doctor Wang for treatment in time, and now she is standing here safely.
If we were to say who in this palace trusts Concubine Ji the most, Concubine Zhang would be in the top five.
Wu Qing nodded again and said to everyone in the hall: "Unfortunately, just barking is not enough to satisfy him. I have to give him something from time to time, such as a dog chain made of pure gold."
"Qin Lixue's illness has been getting worse recently. He can no longer survive without the company of his master. I have no choice but to ask the emperor to give him a chance to enter the palace."
"I believe that many people in the palace have said recently that Qin Lixue and I have a close relationship. Well, this is a magical medical prescription called 'encouragement therapy', the purpose of which is to help Qin Lixue regain his confidence in life." Wu Qing said while shaking his head.
“…”
Seeing everyone's strange expressions, Wu Qing even "defended" Qin Lixue: "Really, he is very pitiful. With this disease, not only can he not seek medical treatment, but he also has to hide it from his family."
"Master Qin's father is a man of strong character, strict and old-fashioned. If he knew that his son had such a quirk, he would definitely expel him from the family."
"His mother and wife both thought he was a good man who stood up for himself. They expected him to become the backbone of the family, which put a lot of pressure on him. But who knew? In fact, he was just a fragile little puppy."
Wu Qing covered her chest, which didn't hurt at all, and said something that made people's teeth ache: "The whole world doesn't understand him, so he can only come to me for help. When I think about the fact that no one can satisfy his small wish to be a dog, I can't stop crying."
"He is just a boy of about 20 years old. Doesn't he just like being a dog? I will satisfy him."
After saying this, Wu Qingqing took up the handkerchief and slowly wiped away the empty tears from the corners of her eyes.
Her shoulders trembled slightly, as if she was still immersed in the passionate speech she had just made and couldn't extricate herself.
But everyone knew that her shoulders were shaking because she was laughing so hard.
【Hahahahahahahahahaha burp…I can’t take it anymore…little dog Qin Lixue.】
Jiu agreed and was dumbfounded.
The beautiful dream that had been carefully woven for a long time collapsed at this moment, leaving only astonishment and confusion.
Qin Lixue has been in and out of the palace frequently recently. She caught a glimpse of him several times by chance and couldn't help but embroider a new picture of a handsome man for him. If she had known that Qin Lixue had such a strange hobby... Jiu agreed and sighed deeply.
Lady Ji is right. Indeed, a man’s greatest charm is a woman’s imagination.
This time the Queen didn't need to confiscate it, so Jiu agreed and decided to burn her embroidery when she returned.
…
Most of the people present were immersed in Wu Qing's shocking speech, even Qiao Xiao was stunned.
She expected that the contents of the letter would shock the concubines. Now everyone was shocked, but it was a different kind of shock.
After the shock subsided a little, Qiao Xiao finally found his voice again.
She said, "Lady Ji, this is just your one-sided statement. It is difficult to conclude that Lord Qin has such a hidden hobby based on the word 'Wang' in the letter."
Wu Qing had expected this.
She turned to the Queen, bowed and said, "Your Majesty, there are no less than ten letters in my room, all of which can prove this. The letters are all written by Qin Lixue to me... uh, this kind of words, you can let Xiao Luzi read it."
Xiao Luzi looked up and glanced at the Queen's expression, then hurriedly ran towards the Linhua Palace.
Ever since Concubine Ji came into favor, his already busy life has become even worse.
But... Xiao Luzi had to admit that he really liked the feeling of knowing the palace secrets first hand.
Looking at Wu Qing's confident expression, as if he had already won, Qiao Xiao felt something was wrong.
...Is what Concubine Ji said all true?
Qiao Xiao still wanted to make a final struggle.
She asked: "Why doesn't Qin Lixue become someone else's dog, but only wants to be a noble man's dog? Isn't this enough to prove that Qin Lixue has a secret relationship with you?"
Hearing this, Wu Qing replied calmly: "Miss Qiao, you are wrong. I am just treating him. Miss Qiao is exaggerating."
Qiao Xiao was unwilling to be outdone and pressed on: "With so many doctors, why would Qin Li Academy choose you?"
"Dogs also choose their masters." Wu Qing raised his eyebrows slightly and looked back at her with a smile, "I am kind-hearted, gentle, and generous, so why can't I be his master?"
It’s okay to be kind-hearted, but how can you say that you are gentle and generous?
The concubines remained silent.
But... forget it, I won’t expose her, as long as she is happy.
Wu Qing spread his hands and said, "Why else would Qin Lixue write to me? Does Miss Qiao think... Qin Lixue is still writing love letters to me knowing that I am a concubine?"
"He's not crazy. He's just sick."
No, no, no, he wants to be your dog, this is no different from being crazy, right?
The concubines behind them all shook their heads.
