The Tu family's mother and daughter didn't understand why, so they knelt down as well.
Before Tu Qingyu could bend her knees, her hands were supported. He was firm and didn't let her kneel down any further. "I said, you don't have to kneel!"
Tu Qingyu looked up and they looked at each other. Finally, she stood up straight, turned her face to the side, and stopped looking at him.
The refusal to communicate is obvious.
Si Chao took a deep breath and said, "Come here, send Madam Tu back first."
Tu Wangshi, Tu Qingxue and Tu Qinglu stood up. She looked at Tu Qingyu with a hesitant expression.
The eunuch came over and said, "Madam Tu, please come in."
"Qingyu..." She looked at Tu Qingyu and then at the emperor. Both of them looked unhappy.
Finally, Tu Qingyu turned around and said gently, "Mom, you go back first."
"and you……"
"Don't worry, my daughter is fine."
Besides, the eunuchs around that bastard were already standing behind Tu Wangshi.
This obviously meant that she had no choice but to leave.
After Eunuch Quan escorted the people out of the prefectural government, Tu Wangshi could not help but stuff a red envelope into his pocket and asked, "Eunuch, what on earth is going on? My daughter..."
"Oh," Eunuch Quan quickly declined, "I dare not accept your gift. Don't worry, the girl will be fine."
“Your Majesty…”
"She is now the most beloved person in His Majesty's heart. You should wait and enjoy her happiness."
"Why..."
She wanted to ask why her daughter became friends with the emperor?
It seems like there is still a misunderstanding between the two people?
It is not easy to get into the palace. Qingyu is smart, but also naive. What will she do when she enters the palace in the future?
Their family background is also low, so the emperor probably won't give them a very high position.
There are three palaces, six courtyards and seventy-two concubines in the palace. If Qing Yu were to enter the palace, wouldn't everyone be able to step on her?
Her heart ached when she thought of this.
Unfortunately, Eunuch Quan would not answer him, after all, he was also very confused now.
He only knew that His Majesty's attitude had never been seen before.
"It's getting late, Madam, please go back early. I will send a car to take you back soon."
She bowed slightly and said, "Thank you, sir."
After getting on the carriage, the three of them lost all their strength and collapsed on the carriage.
Especially Tu Qingxue, she only came to her senses at this moment.
She couldn't stop shaking all over.
That man, that man turned out to be the emperor!
How come he is the emperor?
Why is Tu Qingyu so lucky?
Will she enter the palace?
Will she become the emperor's concubine?
What kind of concubine would she be?
Mrs. Tu was very worried when she saw her like this. "Qingxue, what's wrong with you? Are you okay? Why are you shaking so badly?"
Tu Qingxue raised her head and tried to force a smile, "Mom, I'm fine. I'm just happy for my sister."
Happy?
What's there to be happy about?
Tu Wangshi really couldn't laugh.
She would rather her daughter marry an ordinary man of equal status and live a peaceful life than have her enter the palace.
There are so many women in that place, but there is only one emperor.
Too many wolves and too little meat means competition, and competition means danger.
Her Qingyu, what should she do?
"Mom, are you unhappy?" Tu Qingxue suddenly asked.
There were people from the royal family outside, and Tu Wang could only force a smile, "Happy, mother is happy for your sister."
On the other side, Si Chao was still trying to explain, but unfortunately Tu Qingyu didn't listen.
"It's getting late. I wonder when I can go home?"
"Qingyu, do you really have to do this? I was being hunted at the time, and I really didn't mean to hide it from you."
"I know. When can I go home?"
Her stubborn attitude really made Si Chao feel helpless.
He asked in a deep voice: "Didn't you say that if two people love each other, they can care less about many things?"
"Yes." Having said this, she finally turned around to look at him, but the tiny icy fragments in her eyes still pierced him.
"But I also said that I hate being deceived the most. You had so many opportunities to tell me what happened, but you didn't.
I ignored your age and your identity, and was ready to fight with your parents for you, even to give up everything. Now you tell me that everything was a lie."
As she said this, her eyes became red again, and soon filled with tears, "Then what should I think?
Isn't this just a prank that His Majesty, the almighty, did on a whim?
You're going on a tour incognito, watching me, the daughter of a minor official, fall for you step by step, watching me fall head over heels in love with you. Do you think it's fun?"
"I'm not..."
Tears streamed down her face, as if she couldn't hear the explanation at all, and continued to accuse:
"He also said that he would come to propose marriage after the flower viewing banquet. You must have thought it was funny at the time, right?
How dare I, the daughter of a minor official, ask you, the emperor, to propose marriage to me?
Who am I to propose marriage? Am I worthy?
I wonder if you were angry for a moment when I said "concubine". Let alone "concubine", if I entered the palace, I would not even be as good as an ordinary family's maid, right?"
He felt a pang of pain in his heart when he heard her self-deprecating words.
"Don't say anymore, Qingyu, I was wrong. I shouldn't have lied to you."
She took a deep breath and seemed to calm down a little. "So what now? What does Your Majesty want?"
"Qingyu, I really love you. I will never let you leave my side in this life."
She looked at him without saying a word, and her calmness made his heart beat fast.
"Will you follow me into the palace?"
"I can't tell, will you let me go?"
"Won't."
A sneer appeared on the corner of her mouth. "I'm tired and want to rest."
"I'll take you there." He tried to move forward again, but was avoided again.
Her eyes and tone were cold. "No need. Your Majesty must be surrounded by many eunuchs. Just let them take me."
Si Chao didn't dare to go against anyone at this time. He felt guilty for forcing the person to stay.
He said, "Someone come."
"exist."
The eunuch came in with a group of maids.
"Take the queen down to rest."
"yes."
These people remained calm on the surface, but they had already figured out Tu Qingyu's position in their hearts.
Your Majesty...
In the palace, only those of the third rank and above are called "Empress", which means that the lady in front of you will at least be a concubine in the future.
They became more respectful, "Your Majesty, please come this way."
After Si Chao finished dealing with his work in the evening, he stared at the imperial edict in his hand, which had been revised three times.
At first he thought that for a county magistrate's daughter, being granted the title of Talented Lady was the best that could be achieved.
Later he felt that he had to give her a higher salary, otherwise she would be easily bullied when she entered the palace.
At that time, the position he wanted was Jieyushi, which was the third rank. This position was a step up even for the daughter of an important official in the court.
But now, he still feels that Jieyu is not enough.
Seeing her aggrieved expression, he wanted to bring the best to her.
