"I asked them to kill him."
The girl's voice was very hoarse, obviously she had just cried. Yan Fu was heartbroken and didn't care whether the lights were on or not. He hurried to Qiao Yu's side and gently hugged her:
"Why are you still crying? If you don't like her, I will just send her to a palace far away from you. Why get angry with yourself..."
Originally, Yan Fu wanted to wipe away the girl's tears, but she dodged him, so his hand froze in place.
The girl had never been angry with herself. Even when Jing Yi just left, she just let herself go quietly without responding.
It seems that he is really angry.
Yan Fu sighed and had to be more careful and gentle to coax her. What else could he do besides coaxing his woman when she was in a bad mood?
"I am also very sad that Jingyi left. It was because I failed to protect you and your son. I didn't know how to face you, so I avoided you. It was not intentional to ignore you."
Not to mention the child, as soon as Jing Yi was mentioned, Qiao Yu knocked away Yan Fu's hand that was wiping it again, and glared at the man fiercely, as if she wanted to eat him.
Yan Fu had never seen a girl like this before, and subconsciously felt a little uneasy.
"So what do you want? Behead her or have her torn into pieces?"
The man pulled up the girl's hair and gently sucked the scent that belonged to her. There was some temptation in his words, but he seemed to be determined to do it as long as the girl nodded. Endless pampering was hidden in every word.
But it's like teasing a kitten or puppy.
However, Qiao Yu deliberately misinterpreted his meaning, broke free from Yan Fu's arms, looked at the man with hatred without saying a word.
Even if the emperor had a good temper, if he was disobeyed again and again, his bad nature as a man would make him feel dissatisfied. What's more, he received some bad news about Qiao Yu before she entered the palace.
"Then what else do you want from me? Are you not satisfied even though I apologize to you?"
As expected, to an emperor who doesn't love you enough, no matter how favored you are, you are just a toy. If you do something that doesn't suit his temper, you will face an abyss of ice.
Qiao Yu sneered, and the former gentleness and consideration were gone, leaving only coldness and alienation.
The woman's deep eyes were filled with a faint glow, and her long, curly eyelashes were like frost.
"I don't blame Concubine Qiu, nor the Emperor. I only hope that I can't judge people well."
"You don't know people well? This person is referring to me, right?"
Yan Fu never thought that the woman he held in his hands would be degraded to this level because of an irrelevant person, and he felt angry.
"How dare I?!"
Yan Fu couldn't stand the sarcastic tone. He was so angry that he wanted to refute her, but the girl's eyes were blurred with tears and all the anger disappeared.
As expected, it was the hardest to enjoy the blessing of a beautiful woman. Yan Fu had no choice but to be patient and coax her again. After all, the girl was just angry again and he was the one who was anxious:
"I have followed your wishes. If you have any dissatisfaction, just tell me directly. I will do as you wish."
"Your Majesty, why are you still pretending to be deeply in love with me now? If I were not the Huawai and Xuewai families who I rely on, would you still be acting in front of me?"
No matter what Qiao Yu's temper was, Yan Fu was willing to go along with her, but he would never bring up their relationship and future.
"Pretend? In your eyes, my kindness to you is all fake. What else do you want from me? Do you really want me to give you my heart?"
It would be more accurate to say that Yan Fu was sad rather than angry. No one could accept that his beloved woman thought of him like this.
But even though he was about to lose his mind due to her anger, Yan Fu still cared about Qiao Yu's health and suppressed his anger, his voice trembling a little:
"I won't argue with you. I'll talk to you when you calm down. Even if you're sad and angry after Jing Yi left, you have to take care of your body."
"You still mention Jingyi!"
The woman's voice was almost a roar. The palace maids guarding the door were so frightened by the noise inside that they dared not breathe. Zhu'er and Yu Yuanting's hearts were beating in their throats.
The woman's eyes were red, and her tears could not be stopped like a faucet that had been opened:
"I know my last name is Hua, and I'm the tool Queen Mother Xue uses to control you. So, no matter what I do, I always follow your wishes...
You want me to be gentle and unreasonable so that I can be more controlled. Okay, that's fine, but why did you have to touch my child? He didn't do anything wrong..."
Hearing this, Yan Fu's heart skipped a beat, thinking that she had known the truth and was making a fuss here, so he hurriedly explained and comforted her:
"No...Lan'er, listen to me..."
"I won't listen. I no longer dare to believe a single word you say, Your Majesty. It was Concubine Qiu who hunted Mulan and tried to kill me. It was Concubine Qiu who caused me to lose my child. Your Majesty, if you can protect her, I won't care about any of this."
So she knows everything?
The truth was revealed so blatantly that Yan Fu felt somewhat guilty, but he was not protecting Qiu Ziheng in the way Qiao Yu thought.
"But why was it his father who killed Jing Yi? Just because his father suspected his mother of infidelity, he had him stillborn. Why are you so cruel?"
At this point, Yan Fu roughly understood what Qiu Ziqiang was trying to do with Qiao Yu, but Qiao Yu didn't believe him.
"In your eyes, am I truly heartless and a beast?"
"How dare I?"
Coldness and disappointment filled the girl's eyes. The cold moonlight shone through the gauze window onto her, making her so beautiful and pitiful.
Yan Fu clenched his fists, trying his best to control his anger and not yell at Qiao Yu:
"Yunlan, stop being so sarcastic. Let's be honest. Do you really think I don't love you at all? I didn't question you about the rumors about you and Prince An in Huafu, but why can't you trust me like I trust you?"
The incident of her being 'drunk' that night was deliberately reported to Yan Fu by someone with ulterior motives, but Yan Fu did not reward the person but cut off her tongue.
Qiao Yu was startled because she was originally standing on the moral high ground in this farce, but if she was also implicated, the situation would not be optimistic.
This hint of panic did not miss Yan Fu's eyes, and Yan Fu's heart became even colder. He had suspected that Qiao Yu still had feelings for Yan Qu, but he had not doubted her for a long time.
Not to mention that she suspected Jing Yi was not her own child, but now that she was like this, Yan Fu was no longer sure.
The thief crying "stop thief" is referring to people like Qiao Yu. She quickly realized:
"Since the Emperor has already determined that I have an affair with the Prince Regent, then you can get rid of me just like you did with Jing Yi."
"You! Good, good, good."
She said "good" three times in a row, which showed how angry Yan Fu was. However, looking at the girl's pale face and injured palm, he finally softened his heart and left after saying a few words.
"Hua Yunlan, you are really so ruthless. Yu Yuanting, please send the imperial physician over."
