puff.
The candle was lit again.
"Why is there no one here?!"
"It's impossible that there's no one there. The maids of honor are all outside. Where can Your Majesty go?"
"But there's just no one here."
"Probably because she drank that wine and became dizzy. She fell asleep somewhere and didn't know where she fell. Let's look for her quickly."
Listening to the anxious questioning outside, Tong Su huddled under the bed, not daring to say a word, only her cheeks were red and hot.
The man's body that her back was pressed against felt hot to the touch, like a stove. However, her clothes were thin, her body was pressed against his body, her cheek was pressed against his chest, and she could clearly hear the steady heartbeat.
In the darkness, she could not see anything, she could only feel the man's strong hands around her waist. The ground under the bed was rough, and he lay on the ground, letting her lie on top of her to prevent her clothes from getting a trace of dust.
She suddenly remembered a poem she had read in some romance book with romantic lyrics and erotic lyrics.
Hand in hand, we grasp the arms and enter the reed,
Blow out the light with a shy smile.
The golden needle pierces the peach blossom stamen,
He didn't dare to frown loudly.
The anxious and panicked search gradually faded away, but the man's hand around her waist still did not let go. Tong Su gave her a gentle push and said, "The bad guy hasn't gone far yet, and it's not safe yet. Please wait a little longer, Your Majesty." .”
Tong Su said oh and didn’t think much about it.
It was dark under the bed, and her back was turned to the man. Naturally, she didn't notice the vicious haze flashing in the man's eyes when he said this.
audacious in the extreme.
A worthy death!
Tong Su didn't know where the enemy was, but he knew that this general had always been the best in martial arts. He actually said that the enemy hadn't gone far, so it was better to stay low-key and evade for the time being.
The man asked softly: "Whose are the people outside? Why are they so bold and dare to attack His Majesty?"
Tong Su said: "Who else could it be? Of course it's Yunzong! Qian Shangshu had a good relationship with Yunzong during the late emperor's time. His ability to ascend to the current ministerial position is inseparable from Yunzong's support."
"Are the eunuchs in the DPRK so rampant now?"
"I am nothing more than a puppet queen. She has no confidants and no loyal ministers. How many people can really regard me as the emperor? She just wants me to give birth to an heir as soon as possible and abdicate the throne."
She bit her lip and suddenly turned her head to look at the man: "Why did you save the orphan?"
The man said: "You are my Majesty, and I have been serving the country and the king all my life. How can I stand by and watch His Majesty in danger?"
"Ke Gu is a puppet."
"If you break the thread in the controller's hand, the puppet will bite back."
In the darkness, his voice was cool and firm, his breath lingering on her sensitive ears. He even raised his hand to brush her fallen hair.
"Your Majesty, no matter how arrogant Yun Zong and others are, they are nothing more than His Majesty's domestic slaves. I am willing to be the sword in His Majesty's hand and cut off all the thorns that block the way for Your Majesty!"
.
Tong Su felt like she was about to have a fever and her cheeks turned red.
He spoke close to her ear, his voice was calm and soft, no longer as harsh and forceful as when they first met, but soft and light.
Like a knife put into a sheath, all the edges were restrained, but the handle was placed in her hand so that she could pull it out at any time and he went to kill someone.
He was so close that she could even faintly smell the faint cold aroma of his body. It was not like the agarwood and sandalwood popular among men in the capital, but a peculiar aroma of battlefield smoke mixed with pen and ink rosin.
She suddenly heard the words Qing He once said.
