After putting on his clothes and standing in front of the bronze mirror, he finally felt like a man after being in this world for so long.
Because the style of this clothing is very masculine.
When Gu Qimu came out after taking a bath, he had already returned from court.
Seeing Shen Ye, he walked over and looked her up and down. "Hmm, this kind of clothing suits you better."
"Don't bother with makeup anymore, you're fine as you are."
Shen Ye looked at Gu Qimu and pursed her lips. Is this really a good idea? The Empress suddenly turning into a man will cause turmoil in the court.
What was Gu Qimu implying with those words?
Once her identity is exposed, the civil and military officials will surely submit memorials requesting her removal. If Gu Qimu does not remove her, the civil and military officials will definitely rebel, and the consequences are predictable.
If this continues, the task will be completed very soon.
But why does it feel like there's a hook in his heart, pulling it outwards in circles...?
The thought of destroying Gu Qimu's empire was so painful.
However, there are gains and losses; to complete the task, one must give up some things that should not belong to oneself in the first place.
Shen Ye grabbed Gu Qimu's hand, raised her innocent eyes to look at him, and after a long while, she spoke softly, "So... that's good."
"Chen Ye, you're already mine, so you're not allowed to think about other men. I don't care about anything else, I just want your loyalty and sincerity. If you have any requests in the future, I will fulfill them as long as I can."
"Um."
Shen Ye stared quietly at Gu Qimu, noticing a few traces of rouge powder on the shoulder of his clothes. This was definitely not Shen Ye's, because Gu Qimu had never worn court attire and had ever hugged him.
"I'll say it again: if you dare to have even the slightest affection for another woman, I will announce to the world that you, the imposter, have succeeded to the throne through the will. I'm a good person in every way, but once something of mine is touched by someone else, I'd rather lose it than destroy it."
As someone with severe emotional fastidiousness, he feels disgusted if anyone touches anything, regardless of whether it's his favorite thing or not.
"What are you talking about? How could I possibly like anyone but you?"
Gu Qimu hugged Shen Ye, stroked the back of his head with his large hand, and said, "Alright, stop thinking nonsense."
He held Shen Ye in his arms, his warm breath brushing against his ear, listening to his heartbeat. The feeling was wonderful and real.
"Have lunch. I have some things to take care of this afternoon, but I'll be there on time. Be good, okay?"
Gu Qimu released Shen Ye, his slender fingers gently smoothing the stray hairs on his forehead, his movements so tender.
Looking up, Shen Ye saw that Gu Qimu looked just like a big boy.
However, the sharpness between his brows had not faded. No matter how much he acted like a child in front of Shen Ye, he was still the emperor of the empire, and his kingly aura could not be concealed.
afternoon.
Gu Qimu arrived on time as expected. After dinner, he took Shen Ye's hand and walked outside, saying, "I'll take you somewhere."
At this moment, Shen Ye was dressed in men's clothing, without any makeup. His clear eyes seemed to hold a faint, misty starlight. His lips were as beautiful as cherry blossoms, and his skin was as delicate as fine porcelain. He gazed at Gu Qimu in a calm manner, like a beautiful youth in Greek mythology who died gazing at a daffodil.
The two appeared in the public eye in this way, attracting envious and surprised glances from many palace servants. Despite this, Gu Qimu remained oblivious and continued to walk briskly with Shen Ye in his arms.
