Chapter 160: Wrong posture, take a bite to vent anger

Chapter 160: Wrong posture, take a bite to vent anger

The more unknown, the more dangerous it is.

When the emperor got angry, even Li Yuzong, who had always been by his side and was very familiar with his temper, couldn't handle it.

Ji Qingwu hesitated, could she do it?

She stopped at the steps and whispered, "I can't solve anything by going in. How about-"

Li Yuzong was afraid that she would go back on her word, so he shouted in a shrill voice: "Your Majesty, the fifth young lady of the Ji family requests an audience!"

As expected of an old man serving the emperor, his reaction ability is beyond the reach of ordinary people.

Ji Qingwu could only wait for the emperor inside to speak.

But before there was any movement in the palace, Li Yuzong said to her anxiously: "The emperor has summoned you to see him, Miss Ji, please go in quickly."

Ji Qingwu:......

How come her ears didn't hear anything?

The Qinzheng Hall was clearly as quiet as dead water.

The next moment, she heard it.

Four words were heard from the hall.

"Close the palace door."

The emperor's voice was magnetic and hoarse.

Ji Qingwu's heart trembled, because the anger hidden in the tone was so great that even though she was standing at the door, she seemed to be about to be ignited by the strong emotion.

She finally understood why Eunuch Li and Xiao Dongzi were so scared.

Ji Qingwu was also afraid, so she said quickly, "Eunuch Li, His Majesty means that he does not want to summon me, so I'd better go back first."

After saying that, she wanted to run away, but Li Yuzong quickly stopped her.

If they really let Miss Ji go, it would be very difficult for these servants to face the emperor's devil-like appearance in the next few days.

Ji Qingwu said: "Eunuch Li, it's not that I don't want to help you, it's that His Majesty wants to close the palace door and refuses to see me."

Li Yuzong scratched his head and decided to tell the truth.

He whispered in a low voice, "Miss Ji, you are the one who caused the emperor's anger, so you have to put it out."

"Did I lead it?" Ji Qingwu pointed at himself and said in disbelief.

She thought about what she had done since entering the palace. She had never even met Emperor Wu Su, so how could she have ever angered him?

There was a cough from inside.

Li Yuzong's eyes turned and he said, "Miss Ji, I'm sorry for the offense."

Ji Qingwu was suddenly pushed by him, but the force was not strong, just enough to push her into the palace door.

Then, he quickly closed the red door of the Qinzheng Hall, and Ji Qingwu was also locked inside the door.

The heavy door panel almost hit Ji Qingwu's nose, and she took a small step back.

Is this what is meant by "Close the temple door"?

She hadn't turned around yet, but the feeling of someone staring at her from behind became more and more obvious, making her afraid to act rashly.

Emperor Wu Su said coldly: "You are not here to see me, why don't you look at me, and want me to look at your back."

Ji Qingwu turned his head stiffly, mustering up the courage to look at the person in the hall.

For some reason, all the palace lanterns were off. The sun was setting outside, and the only light coming through the windows was the lighting.

Emperor Wu Su's face was immersed in shadow.

His eyes were dark, without any light at all.

Even at the moment when he saw her face clearly, his complexion was as dark as the landscape inkstone on the desk.

Ji Qingwu didn't know what went wrong. This was completely different from the scene she had imagined when she was dressing up.

She thought he would be happy and moved, and would smile like the one he did in the Star-Picking Tower, with a smile like the sun shining on the snow.

Why does he seem even angrier...

Could it be that Li Yuzong did not deceive her, and the emperor was really angry because of her?

Ji Qingwu frowned slightly, but couldn't understand why he was angry. The change in her expression did not escape the emperor's eyes.

Emperor Wu Su said sternly, "Why don't you show respect to me?"

Ji Qingwu frowned even more tightly.

It wasn't because the emperor asked her to salute.

But she discovered that since some time ago, when she met Emperor Wu Su in private, she would not perform formalities or call herself a subject.

Recently, Emperor Wu Su had not shown his imperial majesty in front of her. Although his attitude was strong, he also did not lack gentle consolation.

He has always indulged her insolence.

Now, after being reminded by the emperor's cold face, Ji Qingwu realized that she had already crossed the line too far.

She looked into his dark eyes and realized very clearly that even if he did favor her a little, it was not enough for her to do whatever she wanted in front of him.

If the emperor wanted to take back this favor, she would be unable to do anything.

Ji Qingwu was just about to perform the formal ceremony of kowtow to the emperor. She lifted the hem of her skirt with her hands and bent her knees.

"The posture is wrong."

Emperor Wu Su scolded in an annoyed tone.

Ji Qingwu was startled by his sudden voice and fell to his knees with a thud.

She hissed.

The gold bricks on the ground were really real and they hit her knees so hard that they hurt.

She couldn't keep kneeling, and her body fell forward, barely supporting herself with her hands, almost falling to the ground.

A pair of ink-colored satin court boots with cloud and dragon patterns appeared in front of her, and the hem of his bright yellow court robe was still swinging in front of her, showing how anxious he was.

Ji Qingwu looked at the colorful clouds on the bright yellow brocade in silence.

He asked her to kneel, and she did so. What else could she be dissatisfied with?

Seeing her kneeling on the cold bricks and stones, Emperor Wu Su became even angrier, his chest heaving, and his voice filled with undisguised rebuke.

"This is how you do a salute!"

What else can we do?

She had chosen the most foolproof bowing gesture, not the usual half-squatting bowing or clasping hands and bowing.

Ji Qingwu began to feel aggrieved: "It was His Majesty who asked the subject to perform the ceremony, but you are so picky."

Seeing that she still had the courage to refute him, Emperor Wu Su's jaw tightened.

"Your head is made of elm wood, and your heart is made of stone, right?"

After being refuted repeatedly by him, Ji Qingwu not only felt pain in his knees, but also a swollen and painful feeling in his heart as if he couldn't breathe.

Ji Qingwu's eyes were red and he was kneeling on the ground, like a delicate little rabbit.

The emperor said unhappily, "You get up first."

Not only does she look like a rabbit, her personality is also very much like a rabbit. When she gets angry, she will start biting people.

She looked him in the eye stubbornly and said, "Your Majesty, I cannot stand up. If you want to punish me, please do so. I only have one head. If Your Majesty cannot bear to see it and feels troubled, just chop it off."

Emperor Wu Su was so angry at her reckless attitude that he let out a long breath, feeling depressed and unable to express himself.

After a while.

He then said, "Do you think I don't want to? Sometimes I really want to split it open to see who is inside."

Although the words were harsh, the tone was helpless.

Ji Qingwu sat on the ground like a spoiled child, refusing to get up. He stubbornly refused to shed tears, but his lips were pursed until they were pale.

She looked away first and blinked her eyes which were starting to feel sore from staring for too long.

Then, she said in a muffled voice: "Your Majesty asked me who was in my head? Anyway, I am not a moody person."

Emperor Wu Su was neither angry nor upset this time.

The woman's eyes were bright and her cheeks were as pretty as a peach in spring because of anger.

It's so hateful that I want to take a bite to vent my anger.
