Chapter 140 This person’s strength should not be underestimated!
Handan Pavilion.
The night breeze was refreshing, but the house was getting hotter and hotter, and the scorching heat was not only coming from him.
And her.
Her mind was in a mess due to the overwhelming emotions and she felt very uncomfortable. However, her body did not reject his closeness and she even shamelessly wanted to stick to him.
When his hand reached under her skirt, Ji Qingwu's eyes instantly regained clarity, and she reacted quickly, reaching out and grabbing his hand.
She stared at him stubbornly with her black eyes that seemed to be able to devour everything.
Emperor Wu Su called her name in a voice that could not be any lower.
"Awu."
It was an extremely affectionate look, as if containing a hint of prayer.
Ji Qingwu did not hesitate. She pressed her forehead against his chest and moved her waist away from his touch, ending with a silent but clear rejection.
Before she could figure it out...
no.
She still knows what is more important between temporary pleasure and long-term freedom. She couldn't let the physical involvement affect her judgment of their relationship anymore.
Moreover, a corner of Ji Qingwu's heart still retained the fear of that night. The thought of it made him feel as if he was being cut in half by a sharp blade.
She clenched her fingers.
It hurts so much, not just ordinary pain.
Thanks to the help of the childbirth system, she never felt so much pain when giving birth.
Ji Qingwu frowned and glanced at his crotch. Her body, which had just been tempted by the male beauty, also calmed down completely.
No, no, no.
Her attitude became more resolute because of this incident. Under his murderous dark gaze, she pushed him away and ran away as if running for her life.
After a while.
The emperor's hoarse voice sounded.
"Li Yuzong."
Li Yuzong, who had been guarding the door, quickly led the palace servants in to serve.
Twelve palace lanterns with jade hook cloud patterns slowly lit up.
The two people in the room sat on either side of the table, each with a different expression.
Emperor Wu Su's brows were tightly furrowed, with a gloomy look between his eyebrows, unable to conceal his depressed and unhappy expression.
Li Yuzong had walked in happily, but after taking a look at his master's expression, he quickly lowered his head, quickly retracted the smile on his face, and felt puzzled.
Li Yuzong, who had been with the emperor for more than ten years, had never seen such a strange expression on his master's face.
This is actually... a look of dissatisfaction.
But just now, he was listening to the noise inside at the door, and something was wrong!
Those moans and sobs made his heart tremble.
Although he was a rootless eunuch, he was not born a eunuch. He had been a man before and knew what this sound meant.
Li Yuzong sighed inwardly, the emperor is worthy of being the emperor, he can endure things that ordinary people cannot endure, and in this situation, he can still stop abruptly.
But because of this, he was even more impressed by this annoying Miss Ji Wu, and it was a skill to make the emperor angry.
But it also allows the emperor to suppress his anger.
This person's strength should not be underestimated!
When he raised his head again, Li Yuzong's face had changed to one of deep hatred and resentment. He looked at his lustful master with deep worry in his eyes.
Emperor Wu Su still had a gloomy face.
Ji Qingwu accidentally made eye contact with the chief steward Li and detected a variety of emotions in his eyes, including confusion, surprise, and admiration.
There is even silent condemnation.
That look was as if she had bullied his honorable majesty.
Does she have it?
She must be the one being bullied.
Ji Qingwu turned his head silently and avoided the sight.
After the lights in the hall were turned on, Ji Qingwu could see clearly what was in the room.
Needless to say, the precious vases and jade bottles on the antique shelf are extremely valuable. The calligraphy and paintings on the wall are all collections from famous artists. Any one of them is a masterpiece that will be passed down through the ages.
On the wall directly opposite the desk, there are portraits of many sages. The paintings are lifelike, and one can imagine the elegance and grace of these celebrities when they were alive.
However, when Ji Qingwu thought about what they had just done in front of these portraits, as if she had done something wrong under the gazes of these people, her face couldn't help but burn. The heat that had just subsided rose up again, and her white and tender ears became bright red.
It was her first time to come into this hall, but the emperor was a frequent visitor. However, he still acted without any scruples.
The "culprit" was still drinking tea and meditating.
The heating stove had long been turned off, and the teapot had been cold for a long time. Li Yuzong stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, the tea is cold. Drinking too much is not good for your health. I will change the teapot for you."
Emperor Wu Su was very angry and his voice was still hoarse.
He said dully, "Why are you making so much noise? Even if the tea is cold, can it be as cold as my heart?"
The heart is cold, but the fire in the body is strong.
It's just like ice and fire.
This statement clearly has a specific meaning, but as for who it refers to...
Li Yuzong quickly lowered his head and quietly stepped aside, intending to continue being an invisible man.
Ji Qingwu blinked and pretended not to know the meaning of the emperor's words. Then, he lowered his head and followed Eunuch Li to retreat to the pillar.
The two stood together, and Li Yuzong took a breath.
His narrow old eyes widened more than twice their size, and he quickly persuaded in a breathy voice: "Miss Ji, what are you doing following me here? Why don't you go forward and serve me?"
Ji Qingwu covered his lips with his fingers and whispered, "Eunuch Li, His Majesty does not need anyone to serve him. He is meditating. If I go over now, I will disturb His Majesty."
Li Yuzong approached and made a lot of noise, which annoyed the emperor.
Ji Qingwu's presence at his side made the emperor angry in a different way.
Emperor Wu Su glanced at the two people standing in a row, clenched his teacup with his fingers, and his eyes seemed to be shooting hidden arrows.
With Eunuch Li by her side, Ji Qingwu was no longer so afraid of his cold face and could even force a smile towards the emperor.
Seeing her smile as gentle as a summer lotus after the rain, the emperor raised his eyebrows slightly, and his complexion did not look so bad.
Li Yuzong beside her followed suit and imitated Miss Ji. He forced a wrinkled and fawning smile on his old face, also trying to please his master.
Emperor Wu Su's expression, which had just turned sunny, suddenly turned gloomy.
He frowned and said, "What are you laughing at? Laughing is uglier than crying. Don't laugh in front of me anymore."
Seeing Li Yuzong’s smile froze, Ji Qingwu smiled even more brightly.
The night is getting dark.
There is a loft above the Handan Pavilion. A screen inlaid with green jade and carved with Kuilong patterns divides the space into two parts, and all bedding is available inside.
Li Yuzong had earlier sent someone to the Ji family to convey the message that Ji Qingwu would stay in the palace for one night, but it would be troublesome to explain her appearance in another palace under the name of the empress dowager.
Staying in Handan Pavilion is actually a good place.
Ji Qingwu stood in front of the green jade screen, looking at the furnishings in the room, while Emperor Wu Su stood at the door of the attic, just looking at her back.
Seeing that he was not going to come in, Ji Qingwu turned around and asked, "Your Majesty, are you leaving?"
Although it was a question, his tone was filled with unconcealable joy, without any reluctance at all.
Emperor Wu Su was not giving up and asked tentatively: "You want me to stay here?"
Ji Qingwu opened her lips and closed them again. She held back the word "I don't want to" that was about to come out of her mouth.
