Chapter 126 I allow you to touch it
Ji Qingwu looked up and was stunned to see his happy smile.
It was like the snow-capped mountains had just cleared and the sunny day was reflecting the snow.
Emperor Wu Su put his fist to the corner of his mouth to stop smiling, and asked: "What are you doing here?"
You come here to see me off so early in the morning. Who do you want to see?
Ji Qingwu blinked and said, "I just want to see the world and watch the ceremony of the army going out to war."
Emperor Wu Su lowered his eyes and looked at her hands. Sure enough, she was pinching her little fingers. After observing her for several times, he discovered a small habit of hers, which was that she liked to pinch her fingers when thinking.
It was now obvious that she was thinking of ways to deceive him and not to tell him the truth.
He asked, "What else?"
"besides......"
Ji Qingwu pinched the knuckles of his little finger hard, thinking about how to get away with it.
Emperor Wu Su watched every move of her hands.
She suddenly moved closer, as if afraid of being overheard, and whispered, "The main reason is to come and see your Majesty's heroic figure."
Emperor Wu Su knew that she was lying, but he was still pleased by her heroic words.
There was a gleam in his eyes, and he waved his right hand. Li Yuzong and his guards retreated to the bottom of the Zhaixing Tower and waited.
Ji Qingwu had something on her mind and didn't want to stay here too long. When she looked up, she saw the emperor driving everyone away. She was dumbfounded.
He said anxiously, "Your Majesty, aren't you in a hurry to go back and review the memorials? If you go back too late, those memorials half a person's height will accumulate to the height of a person."
As she spoke, she gestured, with her palm facing down, from her waist to the top of her head.
She had seen this scene in the tent last time, and she felt that her description was not an exaggeration at all. She hoped that the emperor would put the country first and go back to handle government affairs and let her, an obedient "good citizen", go.
Originally, the emperor Wu Su was in a heavy mood as he was sending troops to the northern border today.
There have been frequent military developments recently, with secret reports received almost every half a month. Most of them are about Xi Jin, who has been making small moves frequently, testing and challenging Bei Li's bottom line.
But seeing this graceful figure...
The memorial needs to be approved.
But right now, reviewing memorials is not as interesting as teasing the woman in front of him.
He raised his hand and pulled Ji Qingwu's hand down, saying seriously: "Awu is right to remind you, but I am not in the Qinzheng Palace now, and I don't have any memorials to approve, so I will approve you first."
Ji Qingwu didn't want to be criticized, so she took a big step back.
But he pulled her wrist, and she was pulled back as soon as she stepped back. Emperor Wu Su didn't even move his sleeve, and she was pulled in front of him.
Then, he asked in a deep voice: "Are you here to see Yuchi Lianping?"
The first step in "criticizing" a memorial is to analyze the intention of the person who wrote it.
Ji Qingwu looked up at him in surprise.
Emperor Wu Su looked into her eyes and said calmly, "Don't be so surprised. I might as well guess that he should have entrusted you with something."
Ji Qingwu's heart was in turmoil.
What Emperor Wu Su said was correct. She came here specially this morning because General Yuchi said he had something to talk to her about, and he had to choose this time before he went to war. He was worried about leaving this matter to others, so he had to entrust her with the important task.
Seeing her eyes flickering, it was obvious that he had guessed it right.
The big hand holding her wrist suddenly tightened, and Ji Qingwu felt a slight pain.
Emperor Wu Su continued in a nonchalant tone, "It's only been a few days, and Ah Wu has become quite distant from me. I don't know when you became so close to Yuchi Lianping. He even wanted to see you before he left for the war."
When he said this, it seemed as if she had something going on with the prince consort.
Ji Qingwu's eyes widened and he said innocently: "I just, just..."
But because she had promised her prince consort that this matter must not be known to outsiders, Ji Qingwu, a good girl of her word, hesitated and could not explain clearly.
Emperor Wu Su continued with a gloomy look: "I listened to the old marquis telling his story so seriously, and even clapped his hands in praise."
"Every time he hit an arrow on the field, you would shake your head and eat the eight-treasure lotus seed cake, which was very pleasant."
Heaven and earth’s conscience!
The last round was archery matched with drum music. She didn't even look at which arrow Yuchi Lianping hit the target. She just listened to the beat of the drum music and ate cakes in a relaxed state of mind.
The emperor noticed even such a small thing. Even Ji Qingwu herself could not remember so clearly when she clapped her hands and shook her head.
Emperor Wu Su looked at him coldly and asked, "And today, did you come here specially to see him off?"
This tone...
Ji Qingwu felt a chill on her back, perhaps because of the wind from upstairs, and this time she answered very decisively.
She opened her big, clear eyes and said simply, "I came here specifically to see Your Majesty."
She made up her mind and insisted that she came to see him, since he couldn't get into her mind to verify it anyway.
Ji Qingwu did not forget to explain: "That day I heard His Majesty say on the high platform that he would see off the army in the Star-Picking Tower in three days, so I came here."
After she said this, she realized that she remembered exactly what the emperor had said, even his expression at that time.
After that, the emperor mentioned that Wei Ting wanted to return to Lin'an City...
Emperor Wu Su knew in his heart that there was nothing between her and Yuchi Lianping, and that the matters entrusted by Yuchi Lianping would only be related to Princess Huachang.
He was just trying to provoke her on purpose, wanting to make her say something he would like to hear.
Ji Qingwu did not disappoint him.
Emperor Wu Su was pleased in his heart, but he did not show it on his face. Seeing that she was frowning and thinking about something, he pinched her palm to bring her back to her senses.
"Since you came here specifically to see me, why don't you dare look at me?"
Ji Qingwu raised his head and glanced at him quickly, then answered honestly, "I have seen it."
Then, his gaze dropped again, staring only at the gold edge on his black robe.
"Is that enough?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he took her hand and led her straight up.
Ji Qingwu felt where her hand was placed, and her heart skipped a beat, as heavy as the drumbeat at the horse riding and archery ceremony that day.
There was warmth under my hands, and the skin under my fingers was not as smooth as a woman's. As soon as I touched it, I could feel the bones inside the skin, which exuded a sense of strongness.
Her hand was brought to his cheek and held firmly in his palm.
Emperor Wu Su opened his mouth and said, "Since you have come here specially, continue to take a good look. I specially allow you to touch it."
The temperature under the fingers is just right and not hot.
But the moment she looked at him, her body shrank, and in an instant, a bright light exploded in her head, then disappeared in an instant.
Ji Qingwu forgot to blink and just stared at him closely, watching the curve of his lips gradually rising.
Her fingertips were pressed on his temple, very close to his eyebrows.
