"Let's talk about Qin Ge."
Qiaochu smiled bitterly, it was indeed Qin Ge.
She suddenly realized that he had already asked Qingling about this, and that he went to Qingling tonight because of this matter, right? If Qingling really told it, would it affect the present
She was not considering how to answer when her jaw was suddenly grabbed. His voice was full of emotion, "What is your relationship with him?"
His words made her startled. For some reason, Qingling didn't seem to tell him about Qin Ge. Was she afraid of affecting future generations? She was relieved. She would go back and talk to Qingling about this matter as soon as possible. Since it was about Qin Ge's life and death, Qingling should be able to agree not to tell him for the time being.
Shangguan Jinghong saw her frowning, his eyes darkened, and he remembered what Shen Qingling said last night: Jinghong, let me think about it and tell you about Qin Ge. But what I can tell you now is that the relationship between Qiaochu and Qin Ge is not simple.
I don't know how to describe my feelings at that time. Even when I think about it now, I still feel heartbroken and burning with jealousy, even though that man should have been her lover in the north before she married him.
The various ups and downs since they met made him almost forget that her original purpose of marrying him was just to save her mother and tribe. He almost forgot that she once chose Shangguan Jinghao just because Shangguan Jinghao was the most capable person to help her at that time.
She married him because of his arrangement and the arranged marriage. She loved him now, he knew, but there was still Qin Ge in her heart. The voice in her dream was so anxious, did she love Qin Ge
He unconsciously increased the strength of his hands.
Qiaochu felt a little pain, but did not stop him. She reached out and took off his iron mask. "Jinghong, give me some time. I will tell you everything about Qin Ge. You just need to know that I only... you..."
She said as she gave him a gentle kiss on the cheek.
She felt heavy in her heart but looked at him shyly and firmly. Unable to say the word, she told him with her actions.
He then picked her up by the waist and spun her around in the room. The light in his eyes suddenly deepened with blazing joy, but he lowered his head and rested his hand on her forehead and murmured, "Okay, I'll wait for you. Don't lie to me, otherwise, I will never let you and that man go, and I can't guarantee that I won't kill you."
The two hugged each other for a long time before he let her go and carried her to a long couch in the room. He touched her body, frowned, took off his outer robe and covered her with it, and moved a large stack of documents on the table to sit on the couch, moving her head to his knees, "Accompany me to work."
Qiaochu saw the dark circles under his eyes and felt sorry for his tiredness, so she stood up and sat up, massaging his shoulders. Shangguan Jinghong sighed with enjoyment, gently put his head on her shoulder, and closed his eyes for a nap.
Qiaochu thought of those two things and teased him first, "Why do you have to set a time for whoever you want to beat and punish? Why do you have to beat him after noon? You are a dishonest person. It's obvious that you want me to come here today."

He laughed, "I didn't ask you to come here, you came here on your own, it looks like you're jealous of someone."
Qiaochu didn't believe him. This was not the first time he had done this. He had tried it in the basement before. He immediately retorted, "Since you wanted to make trouble, why didn't you beat up the two men right away? Shangguan Jinghong, you want to harm people, but you let people come to your house again and again to ask for help and lobbyists?"
"If you don't want to see me, then why don't you write a letter and ask that woman to bring it here? Why do you have to go there yourself?" Shangguan Jinghong sneered, laughing wildly, "What you just said was all about whether the gambling master would feel sorry for you and chase you back? It's not what you really said, Qiaochu, you really miss me."
His heart was filled with light. Qiaochu felt itchy with hatred, and then laughed. Yes, she could actually write a letter to him, but she never had such an idea, so she just came over obediently.
She saw his eyes slightly slit, and whispered: "Then tell me whether you are bad or not. You knew that I had you in my heart, but you were still cold to me these past two days."
The words seemed to please him. Shangguan Jinghong sat up and hugged her in his arms. "If you hadn't come today, how would I know what you were thinking? And you wouldn't tell me."
Therefore, we all need to learn how to love someone, and don’t test it. If we fall in love with him/her before we know how to love him/her well.
These words suddenly began to stir in her heart, and she said them one by one in his ear with embarrassment.
Shangguan Jinghong didn't speak for a long time. He picked up the document and read it several times before looking at her deeply. "Okay."
She knew that he was also thinking. Joy slowly filled Qiaochu's body and mind. The two held hands and leaned against each other. The breeze brought the freshness of the early rain from the window. Qiaochu thought for a moment and said, "Jinghong, promise me one thing, okay?"
"Well, go ahead."
"Let me tell you about Qin Ge, okay?"
Shangguan Jinghong was so smart that he naturally understood what she meant.
He liked the present life. If it weren't for her damn illness, he would be happy enough. He would not allow anyone to ruin it, not even Qin Ge. He was investigating, and he would not give up, but he was willing to agree to what she wanted. He hoped that she would live happily.
"I promise you that I won't ask Shen Qingling about this matter."
After he finished speaking, he lowered his head and saw that Qiaochu's eyes were full of gratitude and smiles. He sighed softly, his heart aching slightly but full.
How nice it would be if she didn't have this damn heart disease.
Thinking of this, he frowned and asked the same question again, "How did you survive as a child? You got into such a serious poison that affected your heart and lungs."
Qiaochu was already very unhappy when she heard him speak. She vaguely recalled the incident in the tower many years ago. However, she had not figured out how to explain her purpose of saving the prince, which was for Qin Ge. So she said with a smile, "You know I have an old lady who is good at raising poisonous creatures. I was bitten by her poisonous insect and I didn't take the antidote in time."
Although Shangguan Jinghong had sharp eyes, what she said was not false. She said it very smoothly. Shangguan Jinghong did not seem to have any doubts, but her brows suddenly turned cold.
Qiao Chu knew that he was already very angry, so he stuck out his tongue and smiled in his heart, "My Queen, you'd better wish me good luck."
She didn't know that at this moment, Shangguan Jinghong was also thinking about the matter of the Qiaolou in his heart, but he naturally would not tell her about the hostage and the fact that Qiaomei had saved him. He didn't want her to have wild thoughts and create unnecessary trouble. In fact, he had a concern. For some reason, there was a kind of aura about Qiaomei that was vaguely tempting him... He would naturally not let her know anything!
Although he promised to cure her, he was terrified in his dreams at midnight and could only fall asleep a little when he was extremely tired.
He didn't dare show any fear in front of her. He hugged her tightly and smiled bitterly at her head.
Even if he injected her internal energy every day, she would only have less than half a year to live.
By then, the child will not be able to be born smoothly.
His greatest hope was in Xiliang and Luzon, but all the spies he sent to Xiliang died - there was ice and snow all over the place, and the temperature was so cold that anyone who got close would die immediately.
Luzon is still searching.
He had another new hope, which he wanted to arrange as soon as possible.
Thinking of this, he suddenly perked up, and he stole a sweet kiss on his lips, and said softly: "Take a rest, Lao Jiu, I will take you back home after I finish dealing with these."
Qiaochu leaned against Shangguan Jinghong's shoulders. After receiving his assurance, she felt relieved. If Qingling had told her about this, she didn't know what the consequences would be. Now, she felt relieved. She began to feel sleepy again and muttered, "Jinghong, come with me and rest. You are tired too."
Shangguan Jinghong seldom saw her innocent look, and whenever he did, he loved her very much. At this moment, seeing her rubbing against his chest, his heart was moved, and he almost wanted to hold her and fall asleep together. He pinched her nose and said lovingly, "I still have to work, otherwise, if the Rui Palace collapses, who will support you, and what about the thing in your belly?"
"That's your child, why can't you call him a good name? You always call him a little monster or a toy," Qiaochu said angrily. "Could it be that there is another woman who gave birth to your child? Don't you love my child?"
As she spoke, she woke up a little from her sleepiness, because Shangguan Jinghong's muscles suddenly became stiff, his chest, his arms... She pulled at his collar, and Shangguan Jinghong held her tightly, "I only want the child you give me."
Qiaochu felt sweet in her heart and fell asleep with her eyes closed, but Shangguan Jinghong gently patted her face and woke her up again. She glared at him with some displeasure, but Shangguan Jinghong ignored her look. His eyes were dark, and he held her head tightly with his big hand. He asked in a somewhat tough manner: "Let me ask you, why did you like me in the first place? If I didn't have the ability to save your mother, would you still like me?"
Qiaochu was startled to see that his expression suddenly became anxious, as if he was so uncertain and desperate to get her answer to feel at ease. Her heart suddenly softened. At first it was because of Qin Ge, but soon it was just because he was him. She had fallen in love with him since they got married, or maybe even earlier.
To truly fall in love with someone is a feeling, without any reason.

When she told him this, Shangguan Jinghong was stunned for a moment, then smiled and let her sleep. His interruption made her think of the things she had not asked just now.
"I heard that something big happened in the palace. A strange object fell from the sky. Did you see it? What is it? Come..."
Shangguan Jinghong pushed her back onto his knees and said with a sigh, "What is this rain from heaven? It's so mysterious. It was the rain this morning that washed away the soil at the roots of a big tree in the Imperial Garden, and a few servants found some strange things at the roots of the tree."
"Oh, what is that?"
Shangguan Jinghong laughed and patted her head. "Why aren't you sleeping yet? I also heard about it. If you are really interested, I will go to the court tomorrow to ask."
As he spoke, he saw Qiaochu's eyes light up slightly, which made him laugh even more. He felt that he was being mean, too. Wasn't this just taking on too much? Wasn't it enough for him to do? But seeing her happy, he felt satisfied.
He picked up a document, but saw Qiaochu still staring at him. He sighed, "Madam, what else is there? It was a mistake to ask you to come here."
"Then I'll go back... Buttercup"
Qiaochu was about to stand up, but Shangguan Jinghong covered her belly with his big hand and held it tightly, "Speak!"
Qiaochu put his arms around his waist, sniffed the fresh scent on his clothes, and said worriedly, "You punished your two brothers today. Are you afraid of angering your father?"
"Don't worry, if I respond openly, Father will not say anything. What I'm most afraid of is that you will harm me secretly."
"Oh, you are taking advantage of your father's psychology."
"What are you looking for? They did something wrong. In order to punish them, I have read all the files they signed and approved in the past two days. I knew they must have committed fraud, and it turned out to be true after checking."
Qiaochu burst out laughing, "Look at your righteous appearance. If it were you, I'm afraid you would cheat even more severely!"
"Of course, but I'm not as stupid as them and won't let anyone find fault with me."
Qiaochu was stunned by the righteous tone, and then she burst out laughing on Shangguan Jinghong. After a long time, when Shangguan Jinghong tickled her, she pretended to surrender and said, "
Why are you so vindictive?"
"Humph, no matter how they treated you in the past, I will make the Seventh Princess kneel down and beg you."
"If I plead for them, wouldn't that ruin your hard work?" Qiaochu made an apologetic expression. "But the Seventh Princess is pregnant after all, and I'm not as thorough as you think, and I'm afraid your father will blame me."
"Besides, I'm afraid your main purpose is not to have me come to see you."
"Oh?" Shangguan Jinghong raised his eyebrows, but there was a hint of amusement in his eyes.
"You, the Eighth Master, don't seem like someone who would play around with a love affair in a place like this. If you want me to take the initiative to find you, there are plenty of places in the Rui Palace. As long as you don't look for me after you return to the palace, I will still look for you. So, you postponed the execution time to the afternoon, actually asking me to beg for mercy."
"That sounds reasonable."
Shangguan Jinghong spoke calmly, but the light in his eyes became brighter and brighter, as if he had discovered something admirable in her.
Qiaochu was shy and avoided his burning gaze.
"I like smart women... You are not the most calculating, but you are the smartest woman I know."
He laughed softly and spoke slowly.
Qiaochu was naturally happy to be praised by her lover, even though she thought it was just his flattery.
I don’t know if Shangguan Jinghong really thinks so, and he has become more and more certain of his ideas in these days.
"How else can you be worthy of me?"
Qiaochu was still feeling happy and a little embarrassed. He was stunned when he heard that. Then he was impressed by his shamelessness and went to hit him with a smile.
Shangguan Jinghong grabbed her hands and gently kissed them on his lips.
"Why do you do that?"
After playing around, Qiaochu asked seriously.
"Since you have already taken care of this matter, why are you asking me?"
Shangguan Jinghong asked back softly, and put her hand back neatly under his outer robe that was draped over her.
"In addition to revenge, you want to do me a favor and establish your prestige so that others know your bottom line, so that no one will dare to mess with you again in the future." Qiaochu said hesitantly.
"Well, it will be easier for you to move around in and out of the palace..."
Hearing his affirmation in person, Qiaochu's heart was gradually filled with an emotion - perhaps it was touching, or perhaps more than just touching. Even though his purpose was not pure, and it was not just for her, but he cared about her.
"Your father probably dislikes me even more and thinks I can control you,"
She curled up in his arms and watched the light outside the window slowly dim.
"But it will also make him more cautious and he won't dare to touch you easily, otherwise it will damage the father-son relationship between him and me."
Qiaochu was startled again. In the orange light, he slowly picked up his hair and said, "No wonder your hair turned white."
"If it's white, then it's white," Shangguan Jinghong disagreed and sneered, "Men don't need to be good-looking."
Because of a man's ambition? Chu smiled gently, but
