Chapter 751 Strawberry Mark
The news that the Phoenix Seal was handed over to the Imperial Concubine quickly spread throughout the palace.
This caused a great stir in the palace.
Everyone knows what the Phoenix Seal represents.
The concubines in the harem dreamed of getting it.
But unexpectedly, it was delivered to the imperial concubine.
Although the emperor asked the imperial concubine to keep it temporarily, who knows how long?
What if the emperor forgets to take back the Phoenix Seal in the future, then wouldn't the Phoenix Seal remain in the imperial concubine's hands forever?
What's the difference between that and directly making her the queen? !
For a moment, everyone's envy, jealousy and hatred towards the imperial concubine reached a new level.
Luo Qinghan was quite busy today, and it was already late at night when he arrived at Yunxiu Palace.
Xiao Xixi had already fallen asleep on the bed.
When she was half asleep, she felt someone touching her legs.
She subconsciously kicked her legs and shook off the annoying hand, but soon the hand came back again.
She finally couldn't bear it anymore, opened her eyes and looked at the guy who disturbed her sleep.
"Your Majesty, what are you doing?"
Luo Qinghan sat on the bed, hooked his fingers around her trouser legs, and slowly rolled them up, revealing the bruises on her knees and calves.
Those were the scars left after she was forced to kneel in Changle Palace.
Her skin was so white that the bruises looked even more glaring.
Luo Qinghan asked: "Have you applied the medicine? Does it still hurt?"
Xiao Xixi was stunned for a moment before she realized what he was asking. She supported herself on the bed with one hand and sat up, then looked down at the bruise on her leg and said indifferently.
"It's okay. I've already applied medicine. It doesn't hurt that much."
Luo Qinghan's fingertips gently brushed across the bruise.
The injured area was extremely sensitive. When someone touched it like this, it felt like being electrocuted. Xiao Xixi couldn't help but shiver.
She quickly pulled her legs back into the quilt and smiled awkwardly.
"It's really alright. It's getting late. You should go to bed."
Luo Qinghan raised his eyes to look at her, his ink-black eyes seemed to be hiding many deep emotions.
"Do you blame me?"
Xiao Xixi was startled: "Why do I blame you?"
Luo Qinghan: "I pushed you to the forefront. The suffering you are going through today is all because of me. You should blame me."
Xiao Xixi: "You think too much, this has nothing to do with you."
Luo Qinghan: "The Empress Dowager reminded me before that if I really liked you, I shouldn't be so high-profile. The higher I praise you, the more people will hate you, and the more dangerous your situation will be. But I didn't listen. I thought I could protect you, but you still got hurt."
When he was the crown prince, he thought that he would no longer be bound by constraints after becoming emperor.
But now that he has become emperor, he finds that he is subject to more restrictions.
Even if he wanted to give more love to the woman he loved, he would be criticized by countless people.
Xiao Xixi knew that he was being too stubborn again.
He used to have this problem. He always tended to think of the worst when something happened and was very pessimistic.
To put it bluntly, it means lack of security.
This may have something to do with his background and upbringing.
Xiao Xixi: "It's just a minor flesh wound. It's nothing to me. You don't need to think too much about it."
Luo Qinghan: "It's just a minor injury today, but what about in the future? Will you get more seriously injured? Or even endanger your life?"
Xiao Xixi said seriously, "You underestimate me too much. If my life is really in danger, I will definitely fight back. Have you forgotten that I am immune to all poisons and I know martial arts? The reason why I accepted the punishment obediently today is because I think kneeling is nothing. There is no need to completely tear my face with the Empress Dowager for such a small matter."
Luo Qinghan stared at her.
"You don't want to break up with the Grand Empress Dowager because you don't want to make things difficult for me, right?"
Xiao Xixi: "Well, you are under a lot of pressure right now, and I don't want to cause you any more trouble."
Luo Qinghan remained silent.
He was the one who made her suffer.
Xiao Xixi took his hand and whispered, "We have been through so many ups and downs, and even tougher times than this. This little difficulty is really nothing."
Luo Qinghan felt a complex mix of emotions, both sour and sweet.
He reached out and pulled the man into his arms, asking in a low voice.
"Why are you so nice to me?"
Xiao Xixi was just about to give him the nice guy card according to international practice, but he rejected it in advance.
Luo Qinghan: "Don't use your nice guy theory to evade me."
Xiao Xixi could only tell the truth.
"Because you are very important to me, and I want you to get what you want."
Luo Qinghan raised the corners of his mouth, and a hint of tenderness emerged in the depths of his black eyes.
He leaned over and kissed her on the lips, whispering.
"I have gotten what I wanted."
"You are my dream come true."
Xiao Xixi: “…”
Surprisingly, I was teased by her instead.
She buried her slightly hot face in his arms and said shyly.
"You've suddenly become so talkative, I'm a little uncomfortable with it."
Luo Qinghan: "I just said what was in my heart."
Xiao Xixi stretched out her little finger and poked his chest: "I can't see your heart, how can I know whether what you said is true or false?"
Luo Qinghan: "Haven't you been living in my heart for a long time? Or the kind without neighbors."
Xiao Xixi groaned: "I find that you have become slick now."
Luo Qinghan: "Maybe it's like the company of bad people attracts bad people."
Xiao Xixi: "Why isn't it true that those who are close to red will be redder?"
Luo Qinghan: "What do you think?"
Xiao Xixi: “…”
I suspect you are making a sarcastic remark.
She stretched out her arms and hugged his neck, leaning forward and sucking hard on his neck.
Luo Qinghan felt a slight sting.
He frowned slightly, but did not push the person away. Instead, he hugged the person tighter.
"what you do?"
His voice sounded a little hoarse and sexy.
Xiao Xixi touched the red kiss mark on his neck with her fingers and smiled wickedly.
"I'll plant you a little strawberry."
Luo Qinghan: "What is a strawberry?"
Xiao Xixi: "A kind of fruit, sour and sweet, very delicious."
Luo Qinghan: "I have never eaten it."
Xiao Xixi: "That only shows that you are ignorant."
Luo Qinghan: “…”
This woman actually dared to mock the king of a country for being ignorant. She is really too proud!
He reached out and spanked her little butt as a punishment.
The next morning, when the palace maids were changing the emperor's clothes, they noticed the red mark on his neck and all smiled knowingly.
Luo Qinghan was completely unaware of this.
It was not until he was dressed and looked in the mirror that he discovered the marks on his neck.
Xixi deliberately left the kiss mark near his ear, at such a high place that even if he pulled up his collar a little, it couldn't be covered and anyone with a discerning eye could see it.
Luo Qinghan touched the kiss mark and laughed softly.
The little thing is quite fun.
