Chapter 614 Take you somewhere
Chapter 614 Take you somewhere
Nian Susu thought he was on halftime break, but a quarter of an hour passed and there was no sound from him.
"Leaving now?"
"Is that all your patience is?"
"It seems that you don't really want to ask for my forgiveness."
"Heh!" Nian Susu laughed contemptuously, and the smile on his face faded slightly, replaced by an undisguised disappointment in his eyes.
She may not forgive him, but he cannot help but coax her.
Nian Susu tossed and turned in bed, her eyes closed, her anger burning in her heart.
She stood up and opened the palace door.
It was cold and deserted outside the door. There was a pool of soft moonlight in the courtyard, and only the chilling sound of the wind could be heard.
"Empress?" Zhihua was guarding the door and was surprised to see Nian Susu.
Nian Susu looked unnatural, "Where's the emperor? Didn't he just say that he wouldn't leave unless I opened the door?"
She sneered, "You can't hold on for just a short while. It seems that's all you can do."
Zhihua thought she was really asleep, but she didn't expect Yi to be awake. She let the emperor "beg" outside the door for so long and refused to see him, which shows that she is so hard-hearted.
Zhihua blinked, feeling sorry for Qin Junyu, "Your Majesty, you misunderstood. Just now, Eunuch Lin came in a hurry to report that there were some problems with the implementation of the new policy, and Lord Nian requested to see him late at night."
"The emperor didn't want to leave, and declined, saying it was getting late, and asked Lord Nian to come to the palace tomorrow." At this point, Zhihua raised her eyes to observe Nian Susu's reaction. She still had a cold face, looking cold-blooded and ruthless. Zhihua continued: "But Eunuch Lin said that Lord Nian was waiting in the Yangxin Palace and vowed to see the emperor tonight. The emperor had no choice but to leave."
This is what happened, and Zhihua believes that Qin Junyu really did nothing wrong.
After all, Lord Nian is the Empress's father and is related to the new policy, so he had to go.
After listening to this, Nian Susu said nothing and closed the door.
She returned to bed and lay down with the quilt in her arms.
"Humph! There is a reason for this. I won't bother with you this time!"
-
In late March, Kyoto is filled with the scenery of spring. The vendors' stalls are filled with various "peach blossom cakes", "peach blossom wine" and "locust flower cakes". The fragrance of flowers is everywhere, but it is not too sweet and is suitable for all ages.
The red walls and green tiles of the palace looked very pretty with a little bit of pink. When the weather was good, people's mood became cheerful, the palace people were all smiling, and everywhere was full of vitality.
Nian Susu was wearing a green gauze robe embroidered with eight Kuilong patterns that had been newly made by the Weaving Department a few days ago. He also wore a pendant with emerald flowers, butterflies and leaves on his waist. Standing at the gate of Zhongling Palace, he opened his arms to the warm sunshine and exhaled deeply.
"Oh my - it's finally spring!"
It is not suitable to go out when it snows in winter. The snow melts in early spring and it is so cold that people's teeth chatter. It is still not until March, when everything comes back to life and spring is in full swing, that I breathe the fresh air and feel like I have been taken out of the refrigerator and thawed.
Zhihua ran over with a kite in her hand, smiling brightly, "My queen, is this the kite you want?"
Nian Su Su took a close look at the kite and the pattern on it could be described in three words - a hodgepodge.
She closed her eyes in disdain, threw the kite back to Zhihua, and laughed awkwardly, "Haha, suddenly I don't really want to fly a kite anymore."
If a kite like this is released into the sky, people who are unaware of the situation might think something has happened in the palace or that a monster is hovering in the sky, which could cause panic and be disastrous.
Zhihua knew that Zhiyuan was being despised and felt very sad, "This is our first time, we have no experience..."
The sadness was swept away, Zhihua smiled brilliantly, staring at her with sparkling eyes, "My Queen, let's do it together!"
"When you were in the prime minister's residence, you would cut window decorations, make kites, and go hiking with me and Jingzhe..."
As she spoke, Zhihua became sad. She realized that those happy and joyful days seemed to be gone forever, and the good memories still haunted her.
Nian Susu didn't want to see Zhihua so sad. Although she knew that life in the palace would definitely be different from when she was in the prime minister's residence, she wanted to do her best to fulfill Zhihua's few wishes within her ability.
Just as she was about to speak, a man's voice sounded at an inopportune time.
"What is the Queen so happy about?"
Nian Susu froze. It was Qin Junyu's voice, but she didn't want to see him right now, so she deliberately didn't turn around.
Zhihua looked terrified and bowed, "Your Highness."
She winked at Nian Susu, indicating that she should salute, but Nian Susu didn't move, and her face became colder and colder.
"I have something to discuss with the Queen. Please go to the imperial study." Qin Junyu's tone was cold, and no emotion could be heard.
Nian Susu turned around with a stern face, and their two calm gazes met, causing slight ripples in both of their eyes.
Nian Susu: "If you have anything to say, just talk about it here."
Considering that what he said was a secret and it was not convenient to say it in front of outsiders, Nian Susu ordered Zhihua to go outside.
The two men confronted each other in the outer corridor, and their attitudes made the air around them freeze.
In the end, Qin Junyu gave in first. He whispered softly, "I'll take you to a place you'll definitely like."
"Are you so confident?" Nian Susu was skeptical of him.
Seeing her respond to him, Qin Junyu's confidence instantly rose. He raised his eyebrows and said, "Of course."
Nian Susu decided to give him this opportunity and followed him out of Zhongling Palace.
However, he did not go to the Imperial Study. This direction was more like... going to the Eastern Palace.
On the way, she suppressed her curiosity and didn't ask until she saw the two big words "Eastern Palace". She stopped and asked, "Is the place you want to take me to the Eastern Palace?"
Could it be that Qin Junyu wanted to bring back memories and ask for her forgiveness? He should have gone to the Prime Minister's Residence, why would it be the East Palace?
Qin Junyu kept it a secret and refused to say anything, but Nian Susu adhered to the principle of doing things as they came, and followed him into the Eastern Palace.
The two of them entered the study unhindered.
Nian Susu looked at him blankly as he took out two sets of casual clothes from the closet and handed one of them to her.
Nian Susu: “Ah?”
Qin Junyu: “Put it on.”
Nian Susu blinked dully, and suddenly remembered that there was a secret passage from the study in the East Palace leading to the outside of the palace. She had the honor of entering the secret passage when she followed Qin Junyu in spiritual form. It is true that all roads lead to Rome. If she had not seen it with her own eyes, she would never have believed that there were such huge secret passages under Shengjing, almost running through the entire Shengjing.
Qin Junyu asked her to change into casual clothes. Could it be that he wanted to take her out of the palace?
When she thought of this possibility, Nian Susu's heart jumped with joy, and she almost couldn't suppress the corners of her mouth, so he saw the clue. She had to pretend that she knew nothing.
Nian Susu responded and went behind the screen to change his clothes.
Although they are husband and wife, Qin Junyu still subconsciously turned his back, straightened his back and did not look to the side.
