The Queen Mother looked at Jiang Jingyu expectantly, wanting to get a positive answer from her, even if it was only half a point. As long as she didn't hate Jing'er, feelings could be cultivated slowly.
The Queen Mother was afraid that Jiang Jingyu would hate Song Wenjingjun because he had taken her wife. Once she hated him, there would be no turning back between them.
Hatred only grows with time.
Jiang Jingyu was silent for a moment, then raised her eyes and met the empress dowager's gaze.
She said, "I don't hate Your Majesty."
Jiang Jingyu only said one sentence and then nothing else.
The empress dowager was shocked and it took her a long time to come back to her senses. She held Jiang Jingyu's hand, and her eyes were a little red.
"Okay, okay, I hope Jingyu doesn't hold a grudge against him. This incident was actually caused by me. If Jingyu feels bad, blame me or resent me. I beg Jingyu not to harbor any resentment towards Jing'er."
"He, this is the first time in his life that he's taken an interest in a woman. He's like a fledgling eagle that's just learned to flap its wings. He can't handle some things properly. If he does something wrong, I hope Jingyu can bear with him."
Jiang Jingyu: “…”
What things?
She felt that the pure emperor handled everything very well!
After Jiang Jingyu had her meal with the Queen Mother, she was sent back to Fengyi Palace to rest.
In the evening, Song Wenjing came to Fengyi Palace and had dinner with Jiang Jingyu as he did last night. He watched Jiang Jingyu lie down on the bed and tucked in the corners of the quilt for her. Then he left Fengyi Palace on the pretext that he had some unfinished government affairs.
However, Song Wenjing, who left Fengyi Palace tonight, did not return to the Yangxin Palace, but went to the Empress Dowager's Kunning Palace.
"Did your Majesty ask for me? What did A-yu say?"
Before anyone reached the inner hall, Song Wenjing's voice came in.
The Queen Mother leaned against the head of the bed, looking at Song Wenjing coming towards her and shook her head helplessly: "I have never seen you come to my palace so late."
Song Wenjing went straight to the empress dowager's bed and sat down, repeating what he had just said.
"Did the Queen Mother ask? What did A-yu say?"
It was Song Wenjing himself who asked the empress dowager to ask whether Jiang Jingyu had any feelings for Song Wenjing.
He was embarrassed to speak up himself, so he had to ask the Queen Mother for help.
Although he knew that the result was most likely one he didn't want to hear, Song Wenjing still wanted an answer.
Of course, even if Song Wenjing didn't ask, the empress dowager would still ask.
Half of her body was already buried, and the only thing she was worried about was Song Wenjing. If Song Wenjing could find someone he loved, the empress dowager would have no regrets even if she died.
"Jingyu said she doesn't hate you."
The Queen Mother told Song Wenjing what Jiang Jingyu had said.
Song Wenjing was stunned at first, and then a look of loneliness flashed across his face, all of which was seen by the empress dowager.
The Queen Mother patted the back of his hand and said comfortingly, "Jing'er, don't be too anxious. After all, Jingyu and Zhou Huaiqian are childhood sweethearts. The feelings between childhood sweethearts are not something that can be let go overnight."
"So you have to give her more time. As long as she doesn't hate you, feelings can be cultivated slowly."
…
Three days later.
Dark clouds filled the sky and pressed down heavily. The branches of the trees kept swaying and turning. From time to time, a huge flash of lightning illuminated the entire sky, winding and rushing over the dark shadows of the trees, cutting through the haze in the sky like a poisonous snake's tongue.
Qiu Shuang and Dong Xu closed all the windows and came to the bed. At this time, Jiang Jingyu was sitting on the bed, wrapping her entire body with a quilt.
"My Lady, it looks like it's going to rain. Don't be afraid, my Lady. I will be guarding the palace tonight."
After Qiu Shuang finished speaking, she stood aside, feeling a little suspicious.
She remembered that the queen was not afraid of thunder before, so why is she so timid now?
Jiang Jingyu grabbed the corner of the quilt and looked at Qiu Shuang and Dong Xu: "You all should leave. There's no need to guard here."
"But your Majesty..."
"I'm fine, I'm going to sleep now."
Jiang Jingyu fell down as he spoke, forcing himself to close his eyes.
"this……"
Qiu Shuang was a little hesitant. The Queen was already so scared, they had to stay here to guard her to feel at ease.
"Let's go."
Dongxu's eyes flashed slightly, and then he tugged at Qiu Shuang's sleeve and pulled her back.
Boom——
There was a loud bang, shaking the windows.
Song Wenjing, who was handling government affairs in the Yangxin Palace, frowned, stood up and walked out of the palace.
Eunuch Su was startled and hurriedly chased after him with an umbrella: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, where are you going so late?"
Song Wenjing didn't say anything and headed towards Fengyi Palace.
The rain was heavy, with thunder and strong winds. Eunuch Su hurried over to hold an umbrella for Song Wenjing, but most of his body was soaked.
Song Wenjing walked through the long corridor, passed by the rows of palaces, and finally came to the pavilion in front of Fengyi Palace.
Eunuch Su hurriedly put away his umbrella and tidied Song Wenjing's clothes. Although the umbrella was open, raindrops still fell on Song Wenjing.
After Eunuch Su had tidied his clothes, Song Wenjing continued to walk forward. Eunuch Su hurriedly picked up the umbrella and followed slowly behind him.
Song Wenjing took two steps and suddenly stopped, saying, "No need to follow me, please leave."
Eunuch Su was stunned: "Huh?"
Then he thought of something and nodded hurriedly: "Oh! I'll take my leave!"
After saying this, Eunuch Su returned with his umbrella, even his steps became lighter.
After three days, His Majesty is finally going to stay overnight in Fengyi Palace!
"ah--"
As a bolt of thunder struck, a terrified cry rang out from Fengyi Palace.
Song Wenjing flashed and instantly arrived at the door of Fengyi Palace. Without saying a word, he pushed the door open and walked in.
What I saw was Jiang Jingyu kneeling on the bed, covering her head with the quilt and shivering.
"Don't be afraid, Ayu, I'm coming."
Song Wenjing took the person and the quilt into his arms.
Boom——
Another muffled thunder accompanied by lightning struck, Jiang Jingyu trembled, and grabbed the lapels of Song Wenjing's chest with both hands.
Song Wenjing looked down at his hands resting on his chest and gently patted Jiang Jingyu's back.
"Don't be afraid, Ayu, I'm here."
Thunder rumbled through the sky one after another. Every time a thunder sounded, Jiang Jingyu subconsciously snuggled a little closer to Song Wenjing's arms, and in the end her whole body was pressed against him.
Two soft lumps pressed against Song Wenjing's chest, making his whole body tense.
Her body was a fatal temptation for him who had just started having sex.
Jiang Jingyu curled up in Song Wenjing's arms like a frightened rabbit. Whenever there was thunder, she would quickly cover her ears, close her eyes and bury her face in Song Wenjing's arms.
Feeling the man's muscles gradually tense, Jiang Jingyu lowered her eyes to hide the cunning in her eyes.
At first, Song Wenjing let her lean on his arms, but as the thunder grew louder, the hand holding his chest kept tightening, seemingly brushing across the sensitive area.
Song Wenjing tightened his palm slightly, veins throbbing on his forehead. He lowered his eyes to look at the little woman in his arms, his warm breath spraying on her head.
"Ayu, don't move."
