Gu Yu didn't notice the blood behind her, and after pressing Fu Jinming's hand, her expression turned cold. Under the dark sky, a flash of lightning flashed by, and Yingdi Gu Yu's eyes were cold and cold, showing no sympathy.
Fu Jinming paused with his fingertips, looked at the blood stains on her back, and suddenly asked, "Is the queen mother injured?"
This sentence called a silence in the hall, Xie Xiao couldn't help but his forehead twitched, he didn't know if Fu Jinming saw him just now, this sentence might just be a temptation.
The man with a handsome face leaned his head up on the pillar, slowed down his breathing slightly, but put his hands on his waist.
Gu Yu didn't know what he meant by asking this question. After Fu Jinming said this, she slightly raised her eyes, and said lightly: "My palace is not injured, why did your majesty say that?"
She sat quietly in the dormitory, her plain white clothes were scattered on the ground like slightly blooming hibiscus, when she raised her head, it seemed that a cold light was cast in the silent room.
Fu Jinming collected his thoughts, even though he was puzzled, but he didn't ask at this time, he just said indifferently: "That's why I'm worrying too much, I seem to smell blood just now."
The bloodstain was right behind him, he could see it clearly, but now he only said that he smelled it, and there was something unclear in his eyes.
Gu Yu's body froze imperceptibly when she heard the smell of blood, and then she remembered that she seemed to have accidentally cut Xie Xiao's palm with a dagger, and she just cleaned it up in a hurry, but she forgot to cover it up, and she didn't know that Fu Jinming Did you see it
Thinking of this in her heart, she couldn't help being a little nervous, but on the face she just frowned slightly, and her tone was calm: "It may be that Ah Xi was scratched by a hairpin while serving."
As if to cover up something, she lowered her eyes and said coldly, "If your majesty smells it, please light the incense burner."
Gu Yu got up and was about to avoid Fu Jinming's hand, as if nothing had happened, she wanted to expose the matter, but her shoulders were held down. The young man behind him was breathless, but he apologized calmly: "It's too much to worry about today and tomorrow."
"Today and tomorrow are just a little worried about the Queen Mother."
Fu Jinming is indeed very good at talking, if it is not for Gu Yu's guilty conscience, he might have calmed down with a few words.
But now, the blood at that time dripped somewhere, and Xie Xiao was still hiding behind the pillar on the left, Gu Yu really couldn't relax.
However, the next moment, that person had already returned to his original appearance, wiping her hair respectfully and gently.
The slightly cool fingers shuttled through the hair, bringing a little chill.
Gu Yu was a little uncomfortable, but she was afraid that she would reveal too much when she opened her mouth, so she could only keep silent. But her brows and eyes reflected in the mirror, she was a bit colder after all.
The black silk in the hand is as smooth as a crow's feather, passing through Fu Jinming's vigorous knuckles, for some reason there is some unknown /desire/color.
After an unknown amount of time, he leaned over slightly, looked at Gu Yu's snow-white profile in the mirror, and smiled after a long time: "Queen Mother, it's ready."
The semi-wet hair was dried, and Fu Jinming's movements were gentle, but Gu Yu felt that something was wrong with her body. Intuition can't let him get closer to him.
So when Fu Jinming pinned the broken hair on her forehead behind her ears, she said coldly: "Did your Majesty also dress up like that for Miss Ning of the Duke's Mansion?"
She paused here, and said with some irony when she spoke again: "It's also very affectionate."
This sentence made Fu Jinming's movements finally stop. As we all know, the fact that Ning Xin died because of him had always been a thorn in his heart. No one dared to mention it for so long, but he never expected that it would be said by Gu Yu at this moment.
There was no emotion on her cold face, as if she just said it casually, Fu Jinming gradually felt a sense of resentment, and even the expression in his eyes darkened.
The hall was quiet, fortunately those palace people had already left, otherwise if they saw His Majesty's face at this time, they might be scared to death.
The cold wind beat against the window outside, Fu Jinming lowered his eyes, and after a long time he said: "I and Miss Ning are like brothers and sisters, so I wouldn't do such a thing."
Speaking of Ning Xin, of course he hated Gu Yu from the bottom of his heart.
He also hated the helpless self at that time, Fu Jinming's eyes were slightly red, but in contrast, another emotion arose.
After Gu Yu asked this sentence, he wanted to show her the look in his eyes.
The resentment mixed with/desire/desire, as well as forbearance, were slowly revealed to her. He knew that this was what she hated the most, but the more so, the more Fu Jinming wanted to tell her.
Let's say it's revenge.
But now is not the time, you still need to wait until your own power can stand firmer.
What Gu Yu didn't know was that the Xie Chengying he mentioned just now was already one of his people, and after Xie Xiao entered Beijing, he had already started planning.
He paused with his fingertips, and when he raised his eyes again, he had already lost his expression. Fu Jinming looked at Gu Yu's exquisite/exquisite face, and calmly reached out to brush the broken hair on her forehead, and then slowly withdrew his hand.
His movements were reflected in the mirror, and Xie Xiao, who was hiding behind the pillar, could see clearly.
This kind of action is too intimate.
The way he looked at Gu Yu when he leaned over didn't look like he was looking at an enemy. But it was more like watching, Xie Xiao's eyes paused, and the absurd idea of a beloved person inexplicably appeared in his heart.
He immediately wanted to deny it.
Anyone in this world can love Gu Yu, but he alone can't, and it's impossible.
Everyone can see the hatred between Fu Jinming and Gu Yu.
However, even thinking this way, the previous feeling could not be completely overthrown. His eyes flickered, and he looked at the two not far away.
At this time, Gu Yu had already stood up. Accompanied by her standing up, was a sentence that couldn't be calmer and colder.
"Your Majesty, you're getting worse."
The emperor brushed the empress dowager's hair. Even Gu Yu could sense something wrong with such a move. She still couldn't figure out Fu Jinming's mind, and didn't know what this male supporting role was going to do.
At this time, he could only warn in a cold voice.
The young man who had already taken a step back leaned over and admitted his mistake: "It's the transgression today and tomorrow, please forgive me by the Queen Mother." His attitude was very respectful, as if he wasn't the one who made that move just now.
Gu Yu's eyes paused for a moment, and she seemed a little fussy when she wanted to make trouble for a moment.
However, the feeling that Fu Jinming was always standing behind made Gu Yu feel a little uneasy, after all, there was still a person hiding in this hall.
After hearing his words, she pursed her lips slightly, and finally said indifferently:
"There are a lot of things today, and I am a little tired at this time. I will ask her about my sister. If she agrees, I will follow His Majesty's wishes."
She stopped here slowly, and continued: "If your majesty has nothing else to do, then step back."
Her voice was calm, Fu Jinming glanced down at the bloodstain on the ground, but said nothing, just said: "Since that's the case, then I won't disturb the Queen Mother to rest today and tomorrow."
"I hope the queen mother will take good care of the phoenix's body."
Gu Yu nodded slightly, and when the door of the main hall was pushed open, Ah Xi and others had already entered.
Seeing Fu Jinming get up and leave with the palace servants, Gu Yu heaved a sigh of relief. Only then did he calmly say: "Move the tub down, I'm going to rest, don't bother me if you have nothing else to do."
There was a slight trace of fatigue on her cold face, even though Ah Xi didn't know what the Queen Mother had said to His Majesty, she was so tired, so she could only accept the order to retreat.
After a while, there was no one in the hall.
Gu Yu stood by the window and watched for a while, then turned her head to look behind the pillar, and said calmly: "The king of Mobei has not come out yet, how long is he going to hide here in this palace?"
Her voice was a little cold, and Xie Xiao somehow thought of the scene when Fu Jinming wiped her hair with her quiet downcast eyes just now, he paused in his heart, unexpectedly there was something inexplicable.
When Gu Yu lowered her head, the crow's feathers were scattered, and the slender snowy neck was soft and gentle, which made people's hearts skip a beat. Before today, Xie Xiao had never thought about what it would be like when the Empress Dowager Ruruo was in love.
Not because of anything else, but because Gu Yu was too cold. Just like now, she turned around and stood in front of the window, but her back was like a lonely plum blossom on a cold mountain, which made people unable to feel profane.
But the scene just now made Xie Xiao's heart warm up. When she looked back, what he actually thought for a moment was, if only he was the one who was so close to her just now.
This kind of thought made the drug properties that he had suppressed with great difficulty flare up again. He had to clenched the palm of his sleeve to barely calm down. After hearing Gu Yu's words, he walked out slowly.
"Thank you Queen Mother for taking me in. Xie Xiao will definitely remember this kindness in my heart."
When he saw Gu Yu, his voice became hoarse with heat, and he even spoke in a lower voice than usual. Gu Yu didn't notice it, she just raised her chin slightly and looked at Xie Xiao and said indifferently: "Your Majesty has already left, and I still have important matters in this palace, so I won't send King Mobei off."
The meaning of chasing customers was obvious in her words, Xie Xiao felt a little helpless, but still smiled. Under Gu Yu's cold gaze, he thanked her.
Before he left, he glanced back and didn't know what he thought of, so he said: "Xie Xiao will definitely repay what happened today, but please Queen Mother"
Under Gu Yu's slightly impatient gaze, he smiled slightly and swallowed the phrase "Be careful, Your Majesty".
Although His Majesty had a strange look just now, the Queen Mother was unmoved, thinking that she was overthinking. In the end, Xie Xiao didn't say what he said, so he turned around and jumped out of the window to leave.
Gu Yu had already dismissed Ah Xi and the others just now, but it went smoothly when he went out. Gu Yu didn't look back until she saw the black figure disappearing between the walls.
"What was he trying to say just now?" she asked.
The system also shook his head, and said with a smile: "Maybe you can ask him face to face next time."
Gu Yu twitched her lips, feeling that his proposal was not reliable at all, so she also forgot what happened just now. After finally dealing with the two of them and escaping, Gu Yu relaxed and closed the window.
On the other side, Fu Jinming returned to the study after leaving.
But before he left, he left a few skilled hidden guards to watch near the gate of the Queen Mother's Palace.
The blood on the ground was obviously not left by the hairpin scratches. Fu Jinming could see it clearly. He also saw the black cloth behind the pillar when the lightning flashed by at that time.
Gu Yu didn't like to wear black, and the palace ladies and maids were all dressed in plain colors. It was a bit abrupt for such a color to appear in the Empress Dowager's Palace.
What's more... Fu Jinming always felt that he seemed to have seen this kind of material somewhere.
After he returned to the study, he paused with his fingertips, opened the painting hidden in the darkroom, and it took a long time before he unfolded the scroll.
The rain outside had stopped at this moment, and the accumulated water on the eaves dripped down along the blue tiles. Fu Jinming looked at the beauty in the painting, his eyes darkened a little.
At this time, the secret guard who had been guarding outside Gu Yu Palace suddenly came back.
"Who is it?" Knowing that there was news, he asked calmly after looking away.
But I heard an unexpected name - King Mobei.
After the name was dropped, Fu Jinming remembered that the familiar material was Han brocade unique to Mobei, and only Xie Xiao in the whole palace could wear it.
