"Stop—" Luo Qingchen suddenly stretched out her hand, gently covered his eyes, took a deep breath and said every word seriously: "The purpose why I asked Feng Xingyue to return to Chang'an is different from what I imagined. Do you believe it?" Okay, it’s fine if you don’t believe it, but can you... don’t show such... hurt eyes!"
Be reasonable! She didn't hit him, and she didn't scold him! The look in his eyes that was so sad and deep into her bones made her heart feel tight and a little painful...
For a long time, her palms were still above his eyes, and he didn't say a word.
It wasn't until the system beep sounded again that she finally breathed a sigh of relief, with a faint smile on her lips.
Ding—The hatred value is reduced by ten, and the mission completion rate is 50%.
She slowly put her hand down and looked at him, whose eyes were still closed. The long eyelashes flutter gently, which is particularly beautiful.
"Would you like tea, Your Majesty?" Luo Qingchen called to Xiaocui while clearing away the medical texts on the table, "I only have Biluochun here."
"Yes." He slowly opened his eyes, his mind went blank, and there seemed to be the warmth of her palms in his eyes, which made people reluctant to leave.
This feeling was very special, completely different from the deliberate approach she had taken a year ago.
It was like a stream of clear water entering his mixed heart without warning.
"Xiao Cui, make a pot of Biluochun and bring up the chess piece." She put the medical book aside, looked at him and said, "I heard from Eunuch Li that the emperor often plays chess at Concubine Xi's place, so he must be very good at chess? "
Although in her heart Xijin may not necessarily be an enemy or a friend, she has always felt that such a 'friend' is the scariest thing. After all, no woman is a petty creature.
Feng Sizui obviously didn't love her, but he placed her in the harem and gave her a unique concubine. There must be a reason!
"Eunuch Li has talked to you a lot." His deep eyes unconsciously fell on her slightly pursed lips, and he felt a little unconscious.
Does she care? Why could he feel from her tone that she cared about him playing chess with Xijin!
"He didn't say much!" Luo Qingchen picked up the white piece and placed it on the chessboard. "I'm not bad at chess. If the emperor is bored, you can come to me."
As soon as he finished speaking, the black piece in his hand fell to the ground with a thud.
He suddenly raised his eyes, a faint mist flashed in his dark eyes, and his fingertips trembled unconsciously.
What is she saying? What she means is that he has already... can he come to her to play chess
Shouldn't she be thinking at this moment about how she would escape from the palace after Feng Xingyue comes back, escape from his imprisonment and fly away with the person she loves
Feng Si Zui, don’t be stupid! She is just asking you to... relax your vigilance!
It hurts to stab a sweet date with a knife, have you forgotten
"Ahem—" The next second, he picked up another black piece and placed it firmly on the chessboard and said, "Feng Xingyue is back. Where do you want me to place him? In the palace?"
"Are you stupid!" Luo Qingchen almost blurted out. The moment he said it, he immediately realized that he had said the wrong thing. It is definitely taboo to speak too quickly in front of the emperor!
No wonder history always says that to survive in the palace, you must be careful in your words and deeds, otherwise your head and body will become two objects accidentally...
"Uh... no..." In an instant, she immediately changed her words: "What I mean... is... the word 'silly' is a complimentary word in certain situations..."
…
Phew, what on earth is she talking about! (To be continued)
