Yan Li shifted his cold gaze to Zi Yan: "What about you?"
Zi Yan twitched the corner of her mouth and smiled: "I will do whatever Empress Rong asks me to do."
Yan Li snorted coldly: "This is what you promised, if you don't follow Queen Rong's instructions for a while, I will kill you one by one!"
When the ministers heard this, they retracted their heads into their necks. Zi Yan was also sweating.
Chuntao was boiling water when she suddenly saw Yan Li walking in, and quickly knelt on the ground: "I don't know the emperor is here, I hope you will forgive me!"
Yan Li shivered at this moment, his lips turned purple: "Chuntao, where is the empress?"
Chuntao pointed to the back garden: "The queen... the queen is there."
Yan Li shuddered twice: "Go and tell the queen, I want to wear the old clothes, I'm too cold now!"
Zi Yan also saw that Yan Li was drenched all over, so he didn't know what happened, so it was hard to ask.
"Empress Rong has the emperor's old clothes?"
The eunuch was impatient: "Little girl, why are there so many nonsense! Go and report to Queen Rong, saying that the emperor is here and looking for the old clothes."
"Okay, okay!" Chuntao wiped her face, and wiped a line of charcoal black on her face, "I'm going to report to the queen."
Without touching the ground, he ran to the back garden.
"Queen, queen! The emperor... the emperor is here!"
Rong Changan sat on a wooden stake, chopping firewood with one hand tightly and slowly with the other, coughing and coughing from time to time. Hearing that Yan Li was coming, Rong Changan froze for a moment, looked a little flustered, lowered his head, and wiped his face.
"Tell the emperor, I... I don't want to see anyone now."
Sloppy, if Yan Li saw her like this, wouldn't she be disgusted at first!
But Chuntao didn't understand: "Why the queen? It's hard to wait for the emperor to come. You can tell the emperor about any suffering."
Chuntao often hears Rong Changan calling for Yan Li at night, and now that Yan Li is here, she doesn't want to see him, which really confuses Chuntao.
Rong Changan's eyes were determined: "Don't you listen to me? I want you to tell the emperor that it's inconvenient for me to see people right now, can't you hear me?"
A cold voice suddenly sounded from the Moon Gate: "Why is it inconvenient for the Queen to see people now?"
Rong Changan was taken aback, raised her eyes slightly, and met Yan Li's burning gaze, she immediately looked away again, stood up, turned her body, and turned her back to Yan Li.
"Your Majesty, I've been sick recently, and it's easy to infect you. It's better for you to stay away from me."
Yan Li snorted and laughed twice: "What is the disease that makes you have to avoid me?"
Rong Chang'an's voice was sad: "A disease that kills people!"
Yan Li said affectionately, "I have no complaints or regrets even for a life-threatening illness!"
Yan Li's eyes have already seen the piles of firewood piled up on the ground, the trees in the garden that have been cut down almost completely, and a large pile of black charcoal in the octagonal glazed pavilion, and he already understands in his heart what Rong Chang'an has been doing these days .
A queen is actually burning charcoal, no one will believe it!
The sadness in Yan Li's heart flooded his whole body, his nose was sour, and his eyes were already moist. He should have come to visit Rong Chang'an long ago, she would not have lived such a miserable life.
"Chuntao, who asked the Queen to cut down trees and burn charcoal?"
Although Ziyan never said that he would allow Chang'an to burn charcoal, all of this stemmed from Ziyan's persecution.
"Your Majesty, it's actually..."
But Rong Changan stopped Chuntao: "Don't talk nonsense!" He turned to Yan Li and said, "Your Majesty, I was so bored in Fengming Palace, so I just wanted to find something to do, and it has nothing to do with anyone. Your Majesty Don't even think about going aside."
So, Rong Changan blamed Yan Li
"Queen, are you blaming me for making you so depressed?"
Rong Chang'an snorted coldly: "The emperor thought too much, the concubine really didn't say that."
Yan Li rubbed his arms: "Queen, I'm too cold now, can you bring me a piece of clothing to wear?"
Rong Chang'an frowned: "What joke is the emperor talking about? Why do my concubines have men's clothes!"
Yan Li sat on the stake where Rong Changan was sitting just now, feeling the situation of Rong Changan sitting here just now.
"Queen, you are overthinking! I am not saying that you have other men's clothes, but mine."
Rong Changan looked back at Yan Li, his eyes full of doubts: "The concubine still doesn't understand what the emperor is talking about."
Yan Li looked at how thick the logs and firewood were, they were all chopped by Rong Changan with her slender jade hands, one can see how much effort she had to put in. Will her delicate hands get blisters
"Don't you remember doing disaster relief in the northwest? I was stabbed by an assassin, and I took off my clothes. You said you wanted to wash my clothes. Later, we had some conflicts. You sent them back to me, but you took them back. It can be said that this This piece of clothing is a symbol of our relationship. If it is in your hands, it means that we have a good relationship; if it is not in your hands, it means that there is a rift in our relationship."
Rong Changan bit his lips: "Since you know that the clothes symbolize the relationship between us, why do you want to take them back?"
Yan Li made an exaggerated trembling look: "Don't you see that I'm shaking a lot? I put on my clothes first to warm myself up. When my father-in-law comes to get my clothes, I'll take them off and give them to you."
Clothes are the barometer of the relationship between Rong Changan and Yan Li.
Yan Li wanted to probe into Rong Chang'an's heart through this dress. If Rong Changan gave him clothes to wear but didn't want to take them back, it meant that his relationship with Rong Changan had come to an end; if Rong Changan gave him clothes but took them back, it meant that Rong Changan still thought about him , wanting to hide him in my heart all the time.
Rong Chang'an is not a grass, seeing Yan Li's clothes are soaked and trembling, how can he not feel distressed! With a bag of tears in his eyes, he blamed and said:
"I don't know why you went there. It's freezing cold in winter, and you've got water all over your body! You're lucky if you don't freeze into an iceman."
Yan Li smiled: "Because my heart is warm, I have never been frozen into an iceman."
Rong Changan naturally understood the subtext of this sentence. Because he thought of Rong Chang'an in his heart, Yan Li was warm in his heart.
Rong Changan curled his lips: "Wait, I'll go get you that dress right away." Then he said to Chuntao, "Go and build a fire, let the emperor warm up, and get rid of the cold."
Seeing the two reconciled, Chuntao was very happy: "Okay! This servant will light a fire and roast the emperor very warm."
After a while, Rong Changan brought the clothes, Yan Li went back to the room, took off the soaked clothes, and put on the very old clothes.
The clothes were pierced with several holes by the assassins with swords at that time, and they were mended by Rong Chang'an later, the lines are dense, although it can be seen that they have been mended, it does not look ugly at all.
When Yan Li put it on, he looked like that elegant and elegant censor again.
"Queen, I really can't see that your needlework is so good! Wearing it is much warmer than wearing a dragon robe."
After hearing his words, Rong Changan was extremely happy, bit his lip, and tried not to laugh.
"If it's warmer than the dragon robe, from now on you will only wear the clothes I mended."
The expression on Yan Li's face was serious: "If I could choose, I would rather wear your clothes for the rest of my life!"
