Chapter 136: First Time, Second Time, Familiar

All in all, Yun Qin didn't have much direct contact with the empress, but her hatred and disgust for her were no less than Su Yiyan's.

The empress must have known all this, but she treated her like an ant. Her eunuchs took a fancy to her and didn't care about her life or death at all.

Extreme indifference and selfishness.

Just like Su Yiyan, she felt disgusted!

Hasn't the Queen always been looking down on her from above?

I don't know if I slapped her hard enough, or if it's strong enough to make her face herself.

Hawking felt her body trembling slightly, so he took off his cloak and put it on her. While tying the straps, he gently stroked her face and whispered, "Are you cold?"

Yun Qin shook her head slightly. She was just a little too excited.

Huo Jinchi touched her cold cheek again, and his voice suddenly became three degrees colder when he spoke to Xu An, "Do it immediately!"

"Yes." Xu An responded with a "yes", but raised his eyes and looked at Yun Qin.

The Emperor's punishment is really too severe. He said that it would only last until the Empress Dowager returns, but the Empress Dowager's birthday is still nearly two months away. After all, she is the ruler of the Imperial Palace, so this time is too long.

Of course he wanted to beg for mercy, but the emperor was so angry that he didn't dare to open his mouth.

Among all the people present, only Yun Qin spoke, and perhaps the emperor would listen to her.

Yun Qin looked at him and understood what he meant.

Let her plead for the queen? Okay...

"Your Majesty, the Queen Mother loves the Empress the most. She would definitely feel bad if she knew that the Empress was punished. What should we do if she blames Your Majesty?" Yun Qin said in a low voice.

Huo Jinchi snorted coldly, "Pass the order down, if anyone dares to tell the Queen Mother about this, they will all be severely punished!"

"Yes!" Xu An responded with a bitter face and looked at Yun Qin again.

This does sound like a plea, but why does it also sound like setting a trap for the Queen?

Seeing Xu An looking at her again, Yun Qin shrugged helplessly and innocently. It was such a pity, there was nothing she could do to help.

"Hurry up and go!" Huo Jinchi saw Xu An hesitating and shouted coldly.

Xu An could only lower his head, wave his hand, and have someone drag Jiang Lihai out of the palace gate.

Yun Qin glanced to the side and watched Jiang Lihai being dragged away slowly disappearing outside the palace gate, with a hint of cold satisfaction in her eyes.

When he was relying on the Empress's favor to do whatever he wanted, did he ever think that others could also take advantage of the situation to kill him?

"Let's go, follow me back to Tongming Palace." Huo Jinchi lowered his eyes and tightened Yun Qin's cloak. He seemed strong but a little tentative. He was really afraid of her stubbornness.

It has come to this point, Yun Qin naturally would not refuse and nodded slightly.

Huo Jinchi's complexion looked visibly better, and he leaned over and picked up Yun Qin.

The first time is new, the second time is familiar. Yun Qin was not frightened, but hugged Huo Jinchi's neck obediently and looked behind him, "Little Shunzi and Sister Rong Xin..."

"Why aren't you following me yet!" Hawking Chi didn't turn back.

"Yes!" Xiao Shunzi responded.

Rong Xin said, "I will pack my things first and then go to the front."

Yun Qin looked at Huo Jinchi over his shoulder and realized that she was worried about her treasures, so she couldn't help but smile.

"Leave two people to follow Sister Rong Xin."

"You stay."

Huo Jinchi glanced at the two eunuchs in front of him, then carried Yun Qin straight out the door, put her on the imperial carriage, sat on it himself, and said coldly: "Return to the palace!"

"And what about Su... What about the guilty concubine?"

Yun Qin didn't really care, but she had to maintain consistency in her character and not be too decisive.

Seeing her holding her arm as if she was worried about Su Yiyan, Huo Jinchi couldn't help but pinch her face, "You should worry more about yourself!"

Yun Qin shrank her neck, "But..."

"Wait for the nanny to come out of the Ministry of Punishment, and then send her over." Huo Jinchi exerted a little force on his hands, "Are you relieved now?"

"Why should I worry about that?" Yun Qin curled her lips, "Who cares whether she lives or dies?"

She was telling the truth, but to Hawking Chi it seemed like she was saying one thing and thinking another, and he felt that she was a man of loyalty and friendship.

Yun Qin ignored his pinching of her face, hugged his arm instead, and whispered, "Your Majesty is indeed the most merciful and wise emperor!"

Huo Jinchi snorted lightly, and seeing her acting cute, there was still a smile in his eyes.

"You're not going to get angry with me this time?"

"I don't know what the emperor is going to say next." Yun Qin rested her head on his arm, avoiding his gaze.

Huo Jinchi's smile deepened, and he snorted, "You're used to playing dumb with me!"

He said this, but he didn't argue with Yunqin. He reached out and touched the top of her head, whispering, "It seems like she was really scared. Otherwise, why would she be so well-behaved?"

"As long as the emperor is here, I am not afraid." Yun Qin ignored the sarcasm in his words and continued to speak nicely.

Huo Jinchi was naturally very happy. He kissed her on the top of her head and said with a smile, "Do you want Zhang Zhian to come over and prescribe you a tranquilizer?"

"It's already late." Yun Qin shook her head, "Don't bother Doctor Zhang Yu."

Huo Jinchi disagreed: "It's not a problem, this is Doctor Yu's duty. You will be the master of this palace in the future, so they should take you seriously."

When it comes to trouble, Yun Qin will naturally not be polite. Being frightened is just a small matter for her.

In the final analysis, this was a difference in perception between the two. Yun Qin had no intention of arguing with Huo Jinchi, so she just nodded obediently, "I understand, but I am really sleepy now and don't want to see anyone else."

She was not lying. After a whole night of hard work, she was really tired.

Huo Jinchi looked at her pale face in the candlelight and didn't have the heart to torture her any more. "Then wait until tomorrow and let Zhang Zhian come over to give you a good look."

He gently rubbed Yunqin's face with his fingers, "It will take a while to get to Tongming Palace, so lean on me and sleep for a while."

"good."

Yun Qin agreed readily, but she was always tense beside him, so how could she fall asleep?

Besides, when they get to Tongming Palace, she doesn't know where the emperor will place her. By the time she finishes packing, it will probably be late.

As she thought about it, she couldn't help but yawning slightly, and her eyelashes were instantly wetted by the tears in the corners of her eyes.

Huo Jinchi's eyes were filled with tenderness, and he whispered, "Go to sleep."

Yun Qin responded again, leaned in his arm, closed her eyes and dozed off.

He tightened her cloak again and held her in his arms. He suddenly felt as if he was holding a cat. Her hands were heavy yet incredibly soft, which made him feel soft inside and strangely satisfied.

He touched Yunqin's slightly frizzy hair, and realized that she would need to take good care of it in the future, making it thicker, sleeker and smoother.

He couldn't help laughing as he thought about it.

Yun Qin half opened her eyes and looked at him puzzledly.

"It's okay, go back to sleep."

Huo Jinchi patted her back gently. If she knew what he was thinking, she would probably bite him.
