, Chapter 71(1/3)
This guy is really holding it up and repairing her!
Realizing that she couldn't get any advantage in her posture now, she was particularly straightforward to admit her mistake: "Your Majesty, I know that I am wrong."
Xiao Jue pressed the ball of ointment with his palm, and slowly rubbed it open on her back, with a scattered tone: "What's wrong with the queen?"
His palm was warm and there were thin calluses on the bones of his hands. He rubbed the cold ointment into the slightly swollen skin around him little by little.
This is a scene that is easy to become ambiguous, but his actions of rubbing the ointment are particularly focused and serious, which makes life unbearable and charming.
It seemed like he was completely different from the one who teased Ye Qing before.
After the ointment was dissolved, Xiao Jue increased the force and rubbed it.
His hand strength was much bigger than Zizhu, and it seemed that he had no experience in applying medicine to the woman, so he didn't control his strength. Ye Qing felt a little painful, but he kept gritting his teeth and enduring it.
She frowned and inhaled gently, thinking that he was so abnormal that he might be annoying what she said in the carriage before, and then said softly: "I shouldn't speak nonsense. Your Majesty did not make a fuss with me, it was me who made a fuss with me."
Xiao Jue only raised his eyebrows: "Are you able to speak at this time?"
Ye Qing was a little embarrassed. He didn't know how to answer his words, so he just posed on a bamboo mat to pretend to be dead.
The ointment had been completely rubbed into the skin by Xiao Jue, but he had no intention of stopping.
Because one hand was still wrapped in gauze, he couldn't move, so he helped Ye Qing pinch his back with one hand.
After sitting in the carriage for several days, Ye Qing did have sore waist and back pain. Xiao Jue pressed the big acupoints on her back and helped to comb the tendons and veins. The force on her hands was just right, and Ye Qing felt so comfortable that she wanted to hum.
Later, she did start to hum.
Xiao Jue seemed a little impatient: "Why are you humming?"
Although I don’t know where I got this old man, Ye Qing still shut up when he was thinking of him for massage.
Xiao Jue glanced at Ye Qing, who was as angry as a pufferfish, and shook his head helplessly with a wry smile.
Her eyes fell on her flawless back, and her eyes became dark. This girl who was not aware of it...
Xiao Jue touched a point on her waist and suddenly pressed it hard.
"Ao—"
Ye Qing wailed, and he couldn't care about any image and burst into tears in an instant.
The three palace maids guarding outside the door heard Ye Qing's scream and looked different.
Zizhu wanted to push the door open and go in, but was pulled by Mozhu.
Mo Zhu scolded: "You're not alive?"
Zi Zhu was so anxious that she cried: "Your Majesty's poison has not been relieved. If... Your Majesty loses control, the Empress will be in danger!"
If Xiao Jue had sex, it would be out of control.
After hearing what Zizhu said, Mozhu and Wenzhu were also very worried.
When the three of them were all determined to break into the door, they suddenly remembered Ye Qing's crying shout, "Get out of here!"
The three palace maids who were originally going to slap the door were stunned when they heard this, then they all withdrew their hands and retreated back to their original place and turned their backs to look at the sky.
This is the love between their empress and His Majesty. They should not disturb them.
In the room, Ye Qing hung on Xiao Jue like a furry cat, almost scratching his paws: "It's not me who begged you to give me a massage, why are you venting your anger on me?"
Xiao Jue smiled and said in no sincerity: "I missed the wrong acupoint and pressed the wrong acupoint. I apologize to the queen."
If she believes him again, there will be a ghost!
Ye Qing stared at him angrily.
Xiao Jue couldn't help but poke her face that was bulging like a puffer fish. Before Ye Qing burst out again, he smiled and said, "How can you whine, open your teeth and claws, this is the real look of the queen, right?"
Ye Qing:...
She simply pulled herself off Xiao Jue, sat upright in front of the bed, and after tidying up her clothes, she looked dignified and elegant: "Your Majesty is really good at joking."
It's the same again. She always wears a mask in front of her.
Xiao Jue sighed: "When will Ah Qing treat me honestly?"
Ye Qing looked at him pretending to be stupid, and Xiao Jue's curled mouth became a little more bitter.
His lonely expression made Ye Qing's heart ache slightly.
She said: "In Your Majesty's heart, what should I be like? Or, who should I be?
”
Xiao Jue lowered his eyes to cover up the loneliness in his eyes: "Aqing has always been Aqing, and Aqing is good in everything..."
Speaking of the second half, he raised his eyes and looked at her without a moment. There were some things in his eyes that Ye Qing couldn't understand: "You're always here, it's best."
Ye Qing's heartbeat suddenly became chaotic.
This guy has an iceberg face and a vicious tongue that is used to being used to being savage, but he has never said anything good. Why is he becoming sulky today?
I don’t know if it was to hide my confusion at that moment or something else, Ye Qing twitched his mind and suddenly said, “Your Majesty had said he wanted to send me out of the palace before!”
He smiled, and twisted her long hair and wrapped it around his fingertips, circle after circle, as if he had wrapped his past and present lives together.
He said, "The queen forgot that you didn't agree at that time. Besides... I regretted it."
He seemed to have a lot to say, but his throat moved, but he couldn't spit out a word.
Finally, he looked at the night outside the room and patted Ye Qing on the head: "It's getting late, the queen should take a break soon."
When he opened the door, Ye Qing suddenly called him: "Your Majesty."
"Huh?" He turned his head slightly, and the moonlight poured in from the wide open door. He seemed to be bathed in a layer of bright light. The night breeze blew his wide robe, as if he was coming to the world.
"Your Majesty should also take a rest soon." After saying this, Ye Qing arched his head into the quilt.
Xiao Jue covered his expression and replied, "Hello."
Walking a corner from the second floor of the inn, Wang Jing walked towards him, bowed his fists and said, "Your Majesty, Lord Chen invites all the ministers to hold a banquet tonight and invites His Majesty to go to enjoy the moon together. Is Your Majesty going?"
Xiao Jue had a faint feeling of fatigue between his eyebrows. He smiled and said with a smile: "He is a good student."
Wang Jing naturally knew what he meant.
Next spring exam, another group of officials will inevitably enter the court. In order to make a place for the new Jinshi, the court officials will be transferred.
Lord Chen is the top leader when flattering, but his political achievements are mediocre and he will most likely be transferred to local prefectures. He has been pleasing Xiao Jue all the way and has been flattering to the court officials who accompany him.
A banquet was held tonight. If Lord Chen had no idea, Xiao Jue would definitely not believe it.
Emperors have always been taboo to form cliques and make private contributions. He sent him the posts to the banquet, but after the news, people couldn't catch any mistakes.
Wang Jing couldn't hear whether Xiao Jue was going or not, so he asked: "What does Your Majesty mean?"
Xiao Jue stood on the railing, looking at the full moon in the sky, and instead of answering his words, he asked another question: "Wang Jing, if a person always treats you, does it mean that you are not important to that person at all?"
Your Majesty is having trouble with the Queen again?
He dared not speculate on the feelings of the emperor and the empress, and said, "Maybe there are hidden information or misunderstandings."
Xiao Jue gestured to him to continue talking with his eyes.
Wang Jing was ashamed and said word by word: "Previously in Yangzhou, Your Majesty, you had several poison attacks. The Empress never left you and stayed by your side, and even took the initiative to take blood to Dr. Fang. This time, when attacked on the road, the Empress also blocked the arrows for Your Majesty, which shows that you are in your heart. If you have any barriers with the Empress, wouldn't it be enough to explain them clearly?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Jue's curvature at the corner of his mouth was slightly bitter.
What is the gap between him and Ye Qing?
He couldn't explain clearly, either.
But when she remembered the sound of "Brother Jue" she fell down for her arrow that day, she woke up and asked him about her position in his mind. Xiao Jue could feel that an invisible wall seemed to be erected between him and Ye Qing. He wanted to get close, but she hid behind the wall and didn't want to take another step.
Her temperament is still the same as before, but Xiao Jue could clearly feel that her attitude towards herself was different from when she was in Jiangnan.
He understood what she was angry about, but how should he explain this belated liking to her?
Even if he explained, she didn't seem to want to listen.
This is also why he rarely came to Ye Qing after he was interrupted that day.
He is an emperor and he has his pride.
But more importantly, he didn't know how to face Ye Qing. The girl who could have sacrificed her life for a simple love, grew up. He guessed that she might have experienced a lot of things to develop her current aura of being unstoppable and disgraceful.
He was moved by her growing up, but she had already withdrawn her former love. What should he do?
These days, Xiao Jue has thought a lot. Since she has been chasing him for the past ten years, now it’s time for him to follow her.
Some words are unspeakable when you are awake.
Xiao Jue thought that maybe he could tell Ye Qing what he buried in his heart if he was drunk.
He was upset, and he thought about going out for a walk, so he ordered Wang Jing: "Prepare horses and go to the banquet."
Wang Jing clasped his fists and turned around to prepare for the horse.
On the way, Wang Jing saw Xiao Jue's expression was depressed, and hesitated, and reminded Xiao Jue: "Your Majesty, you will arrive in the capital tomorrow. You are unable to drink anymore. If the ministers toast later, they will push..."
Few people know that when I pour a cup of tea today.
