"Mother, why can't I even see Hua Qingxue?" Li Jingnan went to Zheng Shuwen angrily.
"Your Majesty, political matters are important." Zheng Shuwen sat on the gold-lined chair, with a hint of indifference in her eyes. She glanced at Li Jingnan lightly.
"I will take care of the affairs of the government. Can I meet Hua Qingxue, mother and queen?" Li Jingnan looked at Zheng Shuwen, with a hint of pleading in his eyes.
Zheng Shuwen's eyes flickered, and her prejudice against Hua Qingxue deepened once again.
Li Jingnan looked at her pleadingly, hoping that Zheng Shuwen would allow him to meet Hua Qingxue.
Since he released Li Jingnan, this was the first time that he had surrendered to himself. Zheng Shuwen felt a little moved in her heart. After a while, Zheng Shuwen sighed.
A glimmer of hope ignited in Li Jingnan's heart.
"The Queen Mother can allow you to see Hua Qingxue, but you have to be obedient, otherwise you will never be able to see Hua Qingxue again..." Zheng Shuwen narrowed her eyes and did not finish her words, with a hint of warning in her tone.
Li Jingnan lowered his eyes, flashing an emotion that was hard to detect.
"I know, can I go see Hua Qingxue?" Li Jingnan looked at her, he was eager to see Hua Qingxue now.
"Go." Zheng Shuwen waved her hand and stopped looking at him. Then she glanced at Zi Wan. After Zi Wan understood the idea, she took Li Jingnan to the prison.
"Then Queen Mother, please rest. I will leave first." Li Jingnan had a hint of joy on his face, he could see Hua Qingxue.
Zi Yuan took him to Tianlao. Li Jingnan didn't say a word along the way. Zi Yuan carefully observed Li Jingnan, fearing that the little emperor would use some means to take Hua Qingxue away from here, but... She seemed to have thought wrong. Li Jingnan did not Any action.
"Aunt Zi Wan." When the guards saw Zi Wan coming, they clasped their hands in fists. Zi Wan was the personal maid beside the Queen Mother, so they also respected her a bit.
"The Queen Mother has given an order, and the Emperor can come to the Heavenly Prison from now on." Zi Wan gave the Queen Mother's command, and the two guards guarding the door stopped blocking Li Jingnan and made way for him.
"Your Majesty, please go in. My servant will be outside. If you need anything, just call me." Zi Wan said to Li Jingnan.
Li Jingnan looked at her with a hint of complexity. Wasn't the Queen Mother asking her to follow her just to monitor him? how…
Li Jingnan was a little confused, but he was very eager to see Hua Qingxue, so he stopped thinking about it, regardless of the purpose of this aster. Let’s meet Hua Qingxue first.
"Hua Qingxue! Hua Qingxue!" Li Jingnan ran in and saw Hua Qingxue huddled in the corner of the cage.
"Open the cage for me!" Li Jingnan shouted toward the door.
The guard glanced at Zi Wan, who gave him a look. The guard understood and walked in.
Hua Qingxue felt warm in her heart when she saw Li Jingnan coming to see her.
"Li Jingnan." Hua Qingxue stumbled over.
There was a click.
The lock of the cage was opened, and Li Jingnan jumped directly into Hua Qingxue's arms, his eyes turning red.
"Hua Qingxue." He choked up.
"I'm fine, don't worry." Hua Qingxue touched his head and comforted him.
"Why are your hands so cold?" Li Jingnan held her hand, feeling a clear chill in his palm.
Hua Qingxue took her hand out. It was extremely cold in the prison today, and her face was a little pale.
Li Jingnan quickly took off his cloak and put it on her: "Put this on!"
"Li Jingnan, I'm fine. Put on your clothes quickly so you don't catch a cold." Hua Qingxue resisted. It was so cold in Tianlao and she didn't want Li Jingnan to catch a cold. After all, she was an adult and her resistance should be stronger than that of a child.
"I'm fine, put it on quickly, I'm strong!" Li Jingnan said with a straight face and a somewhat tough tone. He kept blaming himself in his heart. If it weren't for his selfishness, Hua Qingxue wouldn't have suffered like this. Thinking like this His nose felt sore.
Hua Qingxue couldn't defeat Li Jingnan, so she let him put a fox fur cloak on her
"Li Jingnan." Hua Qingxue saw Li Jingnan in a daze and called him, but Li Jingnan was still a little dazed.
"Li Jingnan?" Hua Qingxue called him again.
"Ah?" Li Jingnan came to his senses and saw Hua Qingxue looking at him in confusion.
"What's wrong with you? Are you worried?" Hua Qingxue saw that he seemed a little distracted.
"I'm fine." Li Jingnan shook his head.
The temperature in the sky prison was really low. He just stayed there for a while and felt a little unbearable. He didn't know how Hua Qingxue spent the night.
"Hua Qingxue, I'm sorry." Li Jingnan suddenly hugged her, his voice choked with sobs, and the guilt in his heart became deeper and deeper.
Hua Qingxue was startled by his sudden movement, but after hearing his words, Hua Qingxue smiled, hugged him back, and touched his hand: "I'm fine, don't worry."
"If it weren't for me, you wouldn't have been imprisoned by your mother." Li Jingnan blamed herself.
"What are you talking about? I'm fine Li Jingnan, I believe you will rescue me!" Hua Qingxue smiled at him. She believed in Li Jingnan. Although Li Jingnan was still a child, Hua Qingxue still believed in her.
Li Jingnan looked at Hua Qingxue's bright smile, a trace of determination flashed in his eyes, and his face showed a maturity that was not in line with his youth: "Don't worry, Hua Qingxue, I will definitely rescue you, I am the emperor! "
Hua Qingxue felt sour when she saw him like this. She was born in an emperor's family and couldn't help herself. She knew that.
"Ahem..." Hua Qingxue coughed a few times, her face became paler, and she sat down.
"Hua Qingxue, what's wrong with you?" Li Jingnan asked her concernedly.
"I'm fine, don't worry, it's just a little cold in the prison." Hua Qingxue smiled reluctantly.
Li Jingnan held his hand tightly, "Hua Qingxue, believe me, I will definitely rescue you."
There was a shadow in the corner, taking in all the scenes that had just happened.
"Your Majesty, the environment here is cold and gloomy. It's time for you to go back. Be careful of catching a cold." Zi Yuan appeared in the prison at the right time and lowered her head and said to Li Jingnan.
"I've just arrived!" Li Jingnan said with gloomy eyes.
"Your Majesty, it's cold here, be careful if you catch a cold, the Queen Mother will be worried about you!" Zi Yuan stared at Li Jingnan closely and moved the Queen Mother out.
There was a trace of struggle in Li Jingnan's eyes, and Hua Qingxue also noticed it. Hua Qingxue touched his head: "Don't worry about me, go back quickly. You are the emperor, don't freeze your body."
Li Jingnan bit his lip, feeling a little reluctant: "Then I'll leave first. I'll come back to see you next time."
"Well, go back quickly." Hua Qingxue smiled.
The moment Li Jingnan came out of the cage, Hua Qingxue noticed the cape on her body: "Li Jingnan, your cape."
"I still have it. It's so cold in Tianlao, so you should stay, otherwise you will really freeze your body. I promised the general..." Li Jingnan did not continue. This is all he can do now.
Hearing the words "general", Hua Qingxue's eyes dropped, and a hint of bitterness appeared at the corner of her mouth. Can she still see Fu Tingye
Click—
The sound of the lock pulling her back from her thoughts. She looked at Li Jingnan's body walking away and couldn't help feeling a little distressed. Li Jingnan was still a child, but he had to bear so much pressure.
A chill hit her, so she wrapped herself in the cloak left by Li Jingnan. The cloak was thick, but it was not enough to protect her from the cold.
…
After Li Jingnan came out of the prison, his cold face seemed to have a firmer look on it.
Zi Wan looked at Li Jingnan's leaving figure and had a bad feeling in her heart.
"Aunt Zi Wan." A teasing voice rang in Zi Wan's ears, bringing her back from her thoughts.
Zi Wan followed the voice and looked over, and a familiar face came into her eyes.
Her face darkened, and her voice was cold: "Why are you here?"
After hearing this, Chen Yuan couldn't help but feel a little funny: "You can be here but I can't be here?"
"You!" Zi Wan glared at him.
"What am I? I'm fine. Don't forget, I'm the general manager of the Royal Forest Army now. Is there anything wrong with being here?" Chen Yuan said matter-of-factly.
After hearing this, Zi Wan was too lazy to pay attention to him. She was still rushing back to the Queen Mother's palace.
An arm blocked her face.
"What are you doing? There are so many people, don't mess around!" Zi Wan yelled at him.
"What were you looking at just now?" Chen Yuan asked her curiously. He just saw her looking in one direction in trance.
"Does it have anything to do with you?" Zi Wan looked at him with cold eyes, "Don't block my way and delay the Queen Mother's affairs. Be careful that the Queen Mother rewards you!"
Chen Yuan looked at her fierce look and found it cute.
He lowered his arms and stepped aside with a smile.
Zi Wan did not expect that he would not entangle too much this time, so she couldn't help but look at him in surprise and said, "Are you going to let me go now?"
"Otherwise? Is it possible that you don't want to leave?" Chen Yuan looked at Zi Wan with a hint of slyness in his eyes.
"Get out!" Zi Wan scolded him and ran away.
If Chen Yuan read it correctly, Zi Wan's ears seemed to be red just now.
Chen Yuan felt that he was extremely happy today. The daughter-in-law he chose seemed so pleasing to his eyes.
The guards on the side looked at Chen Yuan giggling alone and looked at each other.
What's wrong, sir
I do not know!
The two people stood at the door with confused expressions.
Chen Yuan came to his senses, coughed slightly, rolled his eyes, and walked to the guard guarding the door of the prison.
"Who else came here besides Zi Wan just now?" Chen Yuan asked the two of them.
"The Emperor has just arrived." The guard answered truthfully.
emperor
Chen Yuan's eyes flashed with an imperceptible light. He touched his chin and said nothing.
"What's the matter, sir?" The guard looked at Chen Yuan, who was rubbing his chin, confused.
"Do I have anything to do with you? Don't ask about adults' business and stay on guard. If you make the slightest mistake, the Queen Mother will kill your heads!" Chen Yuan kicked him and cursed.
"I know I'm humble." The guard was hurt by Chen Yuan's kick, but he didn't dare to show it and just stood there without moving.
