Chapter 260: Ruthless and Affectionate

After saying that he would put the Yunqin sign back, Huo Jinchi did not give Yunqin a chance to argue and left with Xu An.

Yunqin was left standing there in a state of confusion.

It is said that a woman's heart is as deep as a needle in the sea, but a man's heart must be as deep as a toothpick in the sea!

As a tool, isn't she professional and dedicated?

Looking at the dishes on Rong Xin's tray, they were all cheap items that Yun Qin specially found from the warehouse.

She is also frugal and manages the household!

He is very angry!

"Then these tableware..." Rong Xin held them and didn't know what to do for a moment.

Yun Qin took a deep breath. She didn’t know why Huo Jinchi suddenly acted like this, but her determination to become the empress dowager would not waver!

"It's all the same no matter who's angry!"

She snorted coldly, picked up the tray and smashed it hard on the ground, making a loud noise.

Before Huo Jinchi walked out of the palace gate, he heard the noise and couldn't help but look towards the main hall.

"Your Majesty..." Xu An asked hesitantly, "Do you want to go back and take a look?"

"No!" Huo Jinchi was still a little hesitant, but after hearing what he said, he immediately turned around and left.

Then he strode back to the carriage with an unusually ugly look on his face.

This scene happened to be seen by a palace maid who was passing by.

As a result, the news of the big quarrel between the emperor and Concubine Xi spread like wildfire again. This time there were many witnesses, and the news was spread very vividly.

After hearing what was said, Fang agreed and almost choked with laughter.

She is indeed not as beautiful as Concubine Xi, but she is courting death. No matter how beautiful a face is, there will come a day when people get tired of it. Let's see how long she can last!

——

In Yanning Palace, the palace servants cleaned up the scene.

It was just an act at first, but Yun Qin was also infected by Huo Jinchi and unconsciously became really angry. She threw the object with greater force, and fragments flew everywhere.

Let Danxue lead the palace servants to search every corner carefully to ensure that there are no hidden broken pieces of porcelain.

Only after it was confirmed that she was "safe" was Yun Qin "allowed" to move around and then she sat back on the couch.

Rong Xin walked over and made her a cup of tea. After everyone left, she looked at Yun Qin and said, "Aqin really doesn't understand why the emperor is angry?"

Yun Qin took a sip of tea, shook her head, and said casually: "Sister, do you understand?"

"You, obviously so smart, why are you so clueless about the word love?" Rong Xin couldn't help but sigh.

Yun Qin raised her eyes and looked at her, not understanding how this matter was related to love.

Seeing that she really didn't understand, Rong Xin didn't beat around the bush and said bluntly, "I think the emperor deliberately designed Fang Danying to have her period earlier, not only because he didn't want to favor her, but more for you, Qin."

At this point, Yun Qin finally understood. She meant that Huo Jinchi was "keeping his chastity" for her.

"How is this possible!" Yun Qin blurted out, "Sister, please stop joking. Who is the emperor? How could he do this for me..."

As she spoke, she shook her head again and again, "Impossible, impossible."

Rong Xin was puzzled, "The emperor is usually so good to you, and almost goes along with you in everything. You two have agreed to enter the palace for so long, but you haven't slept with him yet. Why is Aqin so sure?"

Even though she said this, Yun Qin remained unmoved, and instead felt that she had a deep misunderstanding of the emperor.

Yun Qin felt it necessary to have a good talk with Rong Xin so that she could understand her current situation.

"Sister, when we were still in Chunxi Palace, what did you think of the emperor's attitude towards Su Yiyan?" she asked softly.

Rong Xin followed her words and recalled that the emperor was naturally good to Su Yiyan.

Su Yiyan had been in the palace for two years, and had been promoted twice since she was promised. If it weren't for her overbearing and stubborn personality, and if she had given birth to a child, she wouldn't have dared to become one of the four concubines.

Seeing her expression, Yun Qin could guess what she was thinking, and asked again: "How did the emperor treat Concubine De in the past?"

Of course, she is pampered, and has been pampered for so many years.

"But what is their fate now?" Yun Qin's eyes turned cold, revealing an unprecedented coldness. "Sister, the living example is right in front of me, how can I believe it?"

"Every time you see Concubine De crying in front of the emperor, don't you think it's funny?" She looked at Rong Xin with her eyes dim, and her voice became cold. "I think it's funny and sad. She probably can't figure out why the tricks that used to work are no longer effective. Why doesn't the emperor even want to look at her?"

"Sister, do you want me to become so pathetic too?"

Rong Xin quickly grabbed her and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? It's all her own fault that Concubine De ended up like this! If she didn't use the eldest prince and didn't hurt others, how could the emperor suddenly dislike her!"

"Sister, don't tell me I haven't done anything harmful to anyone?"

Yun Qin's cold eyes revealed a few sharp gleams, "Regardless of others, Concubine De will die in my hands sooner or later! I don't care if she is the biological mother of the eldest prince, and I don't care about the court situation behind her. She has harmed Ajing, and she will not stop harming me. I will never stop fighting her!"

After saying this, she smiled again, looked at Rong Xin and asked, "Sister, tell me, will the emperor get tired of me one day because of this?"

Rong Xin really wanted to answer no, but when she opened her mouth, nothing came out.

Seeing her looking at him with eyes full of worry and heartache, Yun Qin suddenly smiled again, and all the sharpness in his body disappeared, as if he had turned into the smiling honey pot he usually was.

"Sister, please don't look at me like that. You are right. I am not Su Yiyan nor Concubine De. I know my position well and will not let myself become like them."

She took a sip of the slightly cool tea, and a smile appeared on the corner of her lips again. "At least, the emperor's feelings for me now are not fake. I should have taken my sister's words into consideration. The emperor suddenly got angry today, perhaps because I didn't show happiness and gratitude."

"I see that the emperor has a stomachache today. Ask the kitchen to stew a bowl of chicken soup with ginseng and monkey head mushrooms and send it to the emperor."

She was so clear-headed and rational that Rong Xin didn't know what to say. After looking at her for a while, she could only say, "I'll go right away."

"Don't forget to remind the emperor to eat well." Yun Qin's tone suddenly became sweeter.

Rong Xin nodded, but sighed deeply in her heart.

The emperor is ruthless, and her Ah Qin, how can she be affectionate...
