Chapter 120: No jokes
Li Cairen looked up at Hua Qingrao again, and his heart was itching with hatred. She clenched her fists, gritted her teeth, and said, "The concubine obeys the order." โ
Zhao Xuan didn't want to pay attention to her anymore, she knelt on the ground for a long time, and the palace maid behind her helped her up and limped back to her palace.
Hui Jieyu raised her cold eyes and looked at Zhao Xuan and Hua Qing's affectionate and affectionate appearance.
"Presumably, Yingmei doesn't need to discuss the chess game with the standard now, so everyone, the concubine will retire first." Her voice was indescribably cold, as if there was a hint of mockery.
With that, she turned around and left without the slightest nostalgia.
Hua Qingrao looked at her back, and felt an indescribable feeling of loneliness. She lowered her head and laughed at herself, how could such a tall woman allow herself to let others think she was lonely.
Xue Kite took in the continuous friendship in Zhao Xuan's eyes when she looked at Hua Qingrao, she glanced at the palace people in the hall, and everyone followed her and quietly retreated.
Zhao Xuan rubbed the hand in his palm, and the original coldness gradually became warm. He opened his mouth to break the silence: "The snow kite next to you is a loyal protector, although you had a slight misunderstanding with her before. But now that she is wholeheartedly protecting the Lord, she should be promoted to a first-class palace maid. โ
Hua Qing's heart trembled, how did he know about the snow kite and Fang Ruo in the palace before, could it be that there was also his eyeliner in the Changle Palace? That prince... No, if he had known about the matter between her and Prince Mu, he would not have acted today.
She forced herself to compose herself, lowered her eyes and asked slowly, "How do you know this?" โ
Zhao Xuan's fingers picked up her chin, making her look at herself, and her eyes were burning. "I don't know what you do."
About Lord Mu, Hua Qingrao answered silently in her heart. She was a little afraid to look into his eyes again, and the love implied in them made her heart torment.
She lowered her eyes slightly, trying to squeeze out a touching smile: "That concubine must be very stupid in everyone's eyes, black and white are not distinguished, right and wrong are not distinguished." โ
Zhao Xuan withdrew his hand and chuckled: "It's really stupid." โ
Hua Qingrao's lowered eyes trembled slightly, and her hand took the initiative to hold his withdrawn hand, "Then are you still angry with your concubines?" โ
Zhao Xuan picked up her face, looked at her slightly moist eyes, admired her stunning face at the moment, and couldn't help but leave a light kiss on her lips.
"Silly girl, I said that no matter what happens, you have to hold on tightly, don't let go, and I'll deal with the rest."
He embraced her into his arms like a treasure and whispered in her ear, "You have no jokes. โ
A sentence without jokes made Hua Qingrao's tears flow uncontrollably. Her heart was shaken for the first time, if she told him the truth, would he raise troops to attack Beiyan for her?
She pondered for a long time before she could figure out the answer. Probably not, even though Beiyan has just undergone a change of dynasty, but relying on a century-old foundation, the foundation is solid and the soldiers and horses are sufficient. If there is a battle at this time, the result will be a defeat for both sides.
According to Zhao Xuan's stubborn and stable temperament, he will definitely not take this risk for her. Therefore, the only one who can help her avenge the blood sea is Zhao Yu, who is ambitious and tries to annex the world.
So what should she repay his affection for her now, is it the only remaining broken heart?
The snow kite stood in the courtyard and peeked out of the window, and saw the emperor in the hall hugging the stunning woman tightly, and there were vague tears on the woman's face.
She collided with the woman's inadvertently raised eyes, and the panic that flashed in the woman's eyes immediately returned to her former calmness, as if that second of panic had never happened.

In the Cining Palace, the Queen Mother looked at the queen sitting on the side with a loving face, "Why haven't you seen you for a while, Huarong, you have lost a lot of weight, but Pei Jin didn't have a good life to take care of you." โ
Aunt Pei Jin stood on one side with her head down, and did not speak. Her face was unwavering, as if she were talking about someone else.
The queen smiled softly, glanced at Aunt Pei Jin, and explained: "Aunt Pei Jin has taken good care of her sons, but I am afraid that the harem has been a little too much recently, so she has lost a lot of weight." โ
The Queen Mother smiled in her eyes, and pretended to reproach: "No matter what, you have to take care of your body, Daliang must have a strong queen to help everyone stabilize the country." โ
The queen leaned over and smiled: "What the queen mother said is that the sons and daughters remember the teachings of the queen mother. โ
The Queen Mother picked up the tea next to her, took a sip, and asked, "I heard that everyone accepted a Qinglou geisha into the palace, and the ministers objected, but the queen assisted and sent the woman into the palace." โ
The queen's eyelids jumped, and she glanced at Aunt Pei Jin with some reproach, and she lowered her head and said respectfully: "Yes." โ
There were dark waves surging in the Queen Mother's eyes, and her expression was cold and seemed to have a hint of reproach, which made people really unable to understand her emotions at the moment.
The queen did not dare to make a sound, and bowed her head respectfully and waited for her teachings.
All the palace people in the main hall held their breath and secretly looked at the two women with the highest positions in the harem. For a moment, the temple seemed to stand still.
After a long time, the Queen Mother chuckled, took the queen's hand, and said with a kind face: "The mourning family knows your suffering, everyone is the son of the mourning family, and the mourning family naturally understands that his biggest weakness is soft-heartedness and affection." That's why the mourning family took a fancy to you, you don't want to live up to the trust of the mourning family. โ
The queen breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, and responded softly: "Yes, Erchen understands." โ
The Queen Mother pulled the queen to chat warmly again, as if nothing had happened before, and the atmosphere in the palace eased again.
The chamberlain walked in and saluted respectfully: "Queen Mother, Hui Jieyu has arrived." โ
The Queen Mother's face was suddenly full of smiles, and the fine lines at the corners of her eyes became extraordinarily clear because of the smile. "Come in, please!"
Hui Jieyu came from the chamberlain to receive the money, she saluted, and said in a voice that was neither humble nor arrogant: "The concubine sees the queen mother." โ
The Queen Mother beckoned softly to her, "Come over and let the mourning family take a look!" โ
Hui Jieyu walked over obediently, and the palace people specially added a chair for her on the other side of the Queen Mother.
The Queen Mother took her hand, looked at it carefully for a while, and said with a smile: "I haven't seen her for a while, but I'm a lot more handsome!" โ
When the queen heard this, there was no strange look on her face, but she put on a smile and echoed: "Yes, this Hui Jieyu and her ministers are all looking at it with pity. โ
The Queen Mother patted Hui Jieyu's hand, "The scriptures you copied for the mourning family, the mourning family has received them, it is difficult for you to have this thought." โ
Hui Jieyu smiled faintly, "Being able to copy scriptures for the Queen Mother is a blessing for the concubines." As soon as she finished speaking, she suddenly felt a churn in her stomach, and she turned her head to cover her mouth and became disgusted.
The Queen Mother didn't care about her faux pas, but asked with a worried face, "What's wrong?" But what did you eat? โ
The palace maid beside Hui Jieyu said respectfully: "If you go back to the Queen Mother, my mother has been like this in recent days, and she refuses to send the imperial doctor." โ
Hui Jieyu felt a little better, glanced at the mouthy palace maid reproachfully, turned her head to the queen mother and said, "It's just a little uncomfortable, it's not a big deal, don't bother the doctor." โ
The Queen Mother said with some displeasure: "How can this be done, the body is a big deal!" โ
The queen took in all of Hui Jieyu's previous reactions, and suddenly understood something in her heart. She opened her mouth and smiled: "Queen Mother, Erchen is probably happy when she sees Sister Hui's reaction like this!" โ
