Chapter 198: Inside the Rockery, I Miss You So Much
Ji Qingwu slowly raised his arms and pressed them on his shoulders.
Emperor Wu Su's hands tightened like an iron hoop, holding her tightly in his arms.
He no longer wanted to give her any room to push him away.
The chess game of the previous dynasty was already in motion because of her...
Yesterday, he watched her squatting in front of the herbs in Wutong Garden, tending to them attentively, and he made a decision secretly.
If Ji Qingwu entered the palace, the emperor's true feelings would inevitably be seen through by others.
The danger hidden in the dark will wait for an opportunity like a poisonous snake.
He wanted to give them the opportunity beforehand and urge them to act quickly. Even if he couldn't catch them all in one fell swoop, he would at least clip their wings so that they could no longer pose a threat.
Not knowing what he was thinking, Ji Qingwu felt that his waist was about to be broken by him.
Her hand touched his neck, her fingertips were slightly cool, and this silent touch seemed to convey the unspoken feelings in her heart.
Emperor Wu Su lowered his eyes and locked his gaze on her face.
Suddenly, Ji Qingwu put his hands tightly around his neck and pulled him down towards him.
The sound was tight and hoarse.
"I missed you."
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Ji Qingwu tried to escape from his sight in a panic, but he was easily forced back by holding his face with both hands.
Emperor Wu Su's pupils shrank slightly, and his tone was irresistible.
"Say it again."
These words were the limit of what she could squeeze out of her lips.
However, his eyes sparkled with a strange light in the dark.
"No matter what the reason is, I am really happy that Ah Wu can say these three words."
As if afraid that she couldn't feel his joy and excitement, he expressed and vented it with his most primitive appetite.
Ji Qingwu's thoughts were disrupted by the brutal force, and the root of his tongue was also hurt.
Inside the rockery, there was not only the sound of dripping water, but also the sound of disordered breathing, which belonged to two people.
And the sounds outside the rockery.
"Strange, didn't they say she came to the Imperial Garden? Why is there no sign of her? All of you, go look for her separately!"
Who is looking for her?
Ji Qingwu's legs were so weak that he could not move. He could only hold onto Emperor Wu Su's shoulders and breathe. His eyes were sparkling with water, even more beautiful than those broken ice and jade.
The footsteps were getting closer to them.
There is a winding path on the belly of the rockery, but it is a one-way passage and the road inside is blocked, so they can only return by the original route.
Judging from the sound, the man seemed to be standing at the entrance of the rockery, looking inside.
Ji Qingwu's breathing became more rapid.
The person in front of her was Emperor Wu Su, so she would definitely not have any safety issues, but if someone discovered that she and the emperor were in the rockery...
If this rumor got out, her already precarious reputation would be further tarnished with another piece of information: seducing her lord and flattering him.
Afterwards, she would definitely be packaged up by Old Madam Ji and the Queen Mother and sent to the palace to consolidate the Ji family's favor.
Ji Qingwu grabbed his sleeve as if asking for help, his eyes seemed to be able to speak.
Emperor Wu Su looked back at her, as if he didn't notice her anxiety and panic. His handsome face moved closer to her, but stopped when he was just a few inches away. The meaning was self-evident.
A voice came from outside: "Is anyone inside? If you don't answer, I'll come in."
It's obvious that the people outside have discovered something.
Ji Qingwu quickly stood on tiptoe and kissed him on the right cheek.
Emperor Wu Su raised the corner of his mouth and leaned his left cheek closer. Why did this person ask for so much? Ji Qingwu made up his mind...
A muffled groan from a man came from the rockery, sounding like pain, but also like pleasure.
Prince Yong, who was at the entrance and wanted to come in to find out what was going on, stopped after hearing the voice, because he recognized the man's voice as his royal brother.
Prince Yong is a strange person. He loves to stir up trouble and do whatever he wants, but he never learns his lesson.
But there is one good thing, which is that I don’t like to hold grudges.
Prince Yong had been beaten by the emperor many times since he was a child. Logically, he should have been more jealous or fearful of his half-brother.
But he was not like that. The next day after he was beaten, he came over again as if nothing had happened.
Realizing that Emperor Wu Su was inside, Prince Yong did not retreat, but whispered, "Brother Emperor, I will keep watch for you at the door."
Ji Qingwu gritted her teeth. She could already imagine the lecherous Prince Yong standing guard at the door and talking about this with what expression.
Emperor Wu Su saw that she looked like she was about to cry, and he also knew that it would be bad for her if this matter became known to others.
He didn't want to be reported to the emperor by the censors before he even welcomed her into the palace.
He coaxed in a low voice: "I will go out first to lead him away, and you can sneak out later."
Ji Qingwu nodded hurriedly. There was no better way than this.
Not long after, Prince Yong saw Emperor Wu Su coming out of the entrance and bowed, saying, "Your Majesty, I greet you."
The emperor frowned and asked, "What are you doing in the palace?"
Prince Yong lowered his head and said hesitantly, "Brother, I am here to visit... to visit my mother."
How could Emperor Wu Su not know why he entered the palace? These days, Prince Yong went to the palace every few days.
He had rarely been to the Empress Dowager's Cining Palace, but every time he went, he would go to the gate of Anle Hall to serve as the "wife-watching stone".
Both Tao Wanyin and he brought this upon themselves.
Emperor Wu Su said coldly: "From now on, stay in Prince Yong's Mansion and don't come to the palace unless necessary."
Prince Yong raised his head and wanted to explain a few words.
As a result, after seeing the emperor's sullen expression, his eyes widened considerably.
There was a clear tooth mark on the left cheek of the precious emperor. It seemed that the woman had good teeth, and the marks of her pearly teeth were neat and clear.
Prince Yong's gaze suddenly turned towards the rockery.
I was shocked and wondered which concubine had the guts to speak so harshly to the emperor.
He couldn't help but admire her for doing what he had always wanted to do since he was a child.
When Emperor Wu Su saw Prince Yong's expression, he knew what he was thinking and angrily said, "Go back to your palace."
Prince Yong was expelled by the emperor and could only leave with his head down in disappointment.
After his back disappeared, Emperor Wu Su turned around and coughed towards the cave entrance before leaving.
Ji Qingwu inside the rockery was slowly coming back to his senses.
Thinking about what happened just now, when she said she missed him, the emperor said that no matter what the reason was, he was happy that she said so.
Of course, it was just because she wanted to say it, not because of anything else.
When she calmed down, she realized that the timing of her words was wrong.
The emperor had just solved a big problem for the Ji family and saved her father, and she was returning the favor by saying she missed him.
Emperor Wu Su was the kind of person who would get mad even if someone pulled his sleeve because of someone else's affairs.
This time, he couldn't help but think too much.
Ji Qingwu sighed softly.
Seeing that there was no movement outside, Ji Qingwu tidied her hair and clothes inside the rockery and waited for a long time.
She tiptoed out and looked at the entrance. Seeing no one in sight, she walked out quickly.
As a result, he ran into someone who came out from the rockery.
