Yu Qingluo hurriedly lifted the thin blanket around her body and landed on the ground with her bare feet. Before Ye Xiudu could turn around, she rushed over and hugged his waist from behind.
"It's none of your business, don't get into trouble."
He and Nannan were indeed father and son. Even the form of quarreling was exactly the same. They always turned their backs to her and remained silent, not knowing what they were thinking.
Nannan was okay, she got out of trouble quickly. But Ye Xiu was different. If this person was really angry, the consequences would be disastrous.
Ye Xiu's voice was very low, "I failed to protect you."
Sure enough, Yu Qingluo knew that this person even had the same ideas as Nan Nan, and that the father and son were just like that.
"Who said you didn't protect me well? Don't you think I'm doing well now? And you had the foresight to ask Nan Nan to follow me. If it weren't for your decision, something might really happen to me now. You Look, you protected me, and now I’m standing in front of you safe and sound.”
Ye Xiu turned around suddenly, hugged Yu Qingluo's body tightly, buried his head in her neck, and breathed heavily.
"Qing'er..."
Yu Qingluo felt uncomfortable and patted his shoulder and whispered, "Don't put all the blame on yourself. From the beginning, I insisted on going to Lingtai Temple. I just suffered a little bit." It’s just an injury, not that serious.”
"Qing'er..." He still called her in a low voice without saying anything.
Yu Qingluo pushed him half away slightly, and the hands around his waist slowly climbed up, directly hugged his neck, stepped on her toes and kissed his cold thin lips.
Ye Xiudu's pupils tightened, and the hand holding her waist used a little force to lift her up slightly.
Their lips and teeth were intertwined, inseparable. The two of them were like people who had been thirsty for a long time, eager for each other's tenderness and sweetness.
Ye Xiudu's breathing was messed up, and he pressed her lips harder. Yu Qingluo groaned, closed his eyes and smiled gently.
After a long time, the two separated a little, leaning against each other's foreheads and looking at each other.
Yu Qingluo's face was flushed, her body was almost hanging on his body, her lips were red, swollen and pink, and she opened slightly, "I'm really fine."
"Yes." Ye Xiu closed his eyes alone, trying to calm the chaotic emotions in his chest and suppress the inexplicable heat.
After a while, he cursed in a low voice. Qing'er was injured, but at this juncture he actually... wanted her.
Yu Qingluo lowered her eyes slightly, moved her little hand down, and touched the tip of his ear as if there was nothing, and said nervously and shyly, "Actually, actually, I'm already... ready."
Ye Xiu Dudu's heart beat a beat faster, and he grabbed her restless hand that was rubbing his earlobe, "Qing'er... you... you are injured."
As soon as he finished speaking, he let go of her hand and took two steps back. He looked at her eyes so bright that it could burn people, but he still controlled himself and took two steps back.
Yu Qingluo was dissatisfied. Although she was slapped, it really didn't matter much.
"Qing'er, stop, stop teasing me." Ye Xiu couldn't bear it. He almost threw her to the ground just now. This woman even rubbed his ears when she was nervous. That kind of innocent teasing made him unable to control her at all.
Yu Qingluo snorted softly, and Ye Xiudu had already retreated to the door of the room. He took a deep breath and said to Yu Qingluo, "I still have something to do. You have a good rest. I will come back in the evening."
As soon as he finished speaking, the person left.
Yu Qingluo stood there blankly for a long time, her face turning even redder. After a long time, she patted her cheek, adjusted her heart that was beating fast just now, and returned to bed.
However, seeing Ye Xiudu looking like this, it was obvious that the lifelessness he had just lost was gone, and he was finally half relieved.
That night, Aunt Xiao came back from the inn in Jing Lei Kingdom with a satisfied Nannan. According to the little guy, there didn't seem to be much fun in the post house. No one liked to talk, and no one would even pay attention to him when he asked for directions.
Yu Qingluo understood that Shangguan Jin had been assassinated, and the guards in the post house were naturally more strict. It was normal for Nannan to find nothing interesting to do.
Soon after, Shen Ying also brought a message to Yu Qingluo.
Many female relatives of Lingtai Temple have all returned to the palace because of this sudden incident.
The palm on Concubine Xiao was so serious that many imperial doctors racked their brains but could do nothing. Now she is in a state of living death, and it is still unknown when she will wake up.
Emperor Lei Ting was furious and wanted to investigate the matter thoroughly. He asked the imperial guards to surround the three floors outside and outside the Lingtai Temple, looking for clues about the assassin.
After hearing this, Yu Qingluo just nodded. These were all within her expectations. What she was more curious about now was what kind of responsibility Concubine Meng had to bear in this incident.
She thought that the Queen, Concubine Liu and others would definitely not miss this rare opportunity.
Sure enough, in the afternoon of the next day, when Yu Qingluo was still eating the tonic specially stewed by Ye Xiudu in the kitchen for afternoon tea, Aunt Xiao came to her ear and whispered about the situation in the palace.
Therefore, this blessing event was organized by Concubine Meng, and she has the greatest responsibility. Coupled with her improper command, the entire Lingtai Temple was left without a single guard, exposing so many female relatives to danger. Princess Tianfu was even injured, Concubine Xiao fell into a coma, and Concubine Wan and Princess Wanyan almost encountered poisonous hands. , Concubine Meng was naturally involved in such a bad incident.
Moreover, the emperor's investigation revealed that when several nobles were in danger, Concubine Meng had a dispute with Concubine Liu and Concubine Kang over a trivial matter, which made the crime even more unforgivable.
However, the queen played a role in calming people's hearts during this incident. She immediately rescued Concubine Xiao and Princess Tianfu, and immediately asked the Tiger Guards to search for the assassins, so that everyone should not disperse and act alone, thus avoiding the possibility that other concubines would also be in danger.
Concubine Meng's privileges in charge of the harem were withdrawn, and Concubine Liu and Concubine Kang were punished accordingly.
Now that no one in the harem could be locked up for a while, the emperor thought about it and handed over these people to Concubine Shu.
But Concubine Shu was a smart person. She didn't want to sit in this position and wasn't suitable to sit in it, so she pushed her away because she felt unwell. And intentionally or unintentionally, he drew the emperor's attention to the queen.
But the emperor was still worried about what happened to the queen back then. Although the emperor praised her for this incident, he did not make the decision at that time to let her regain control of the harem. So he still invited the Queen Mother to come out and let the Queen Mother take charge of the harem for the time being. We will wait until the Four Nations Competition is over to make a final decision on this matter.
When Grandma Xiao said this, she couldn't help but pause and said in a low voice, "Actually, the Emperor had no intention of taking back the power of Concubine Meng's harem at the beginning."
"Well? Something else happened?"
