Palace Scheming: the Queen In the Cold Palace I

Chapter 15 Even in the cold palace, there are warm feelings (1)

"Uh..." Yun Qing's expression changed slightly, and he found that this person was not as cold as usual. If he didn't want to know how to blow it later, he would not say a word to him.

 Hah, it doesn’t matter, I don’t know who he is. And he didn't know who he was.

They got together just because of the song "Love the Breeze", so they can just talk about the song.

Thinking about it, she smiled nonchalantly, picked up the jade flute in her hand, and skillfully played the coda that she just couldn't play anymore.

 In fact, the note at the end is too high. If you are in a bad mood and the flute sound is low, you will not be able to continue it at all.

But now after this episode, Yun Qing found that his gloomy mood just now was actually much lighter, and he naturally played without any effort.

So, without the prelude, she could easily play the ending part, blowing a unique and light music in the night sky of the palace, making people feel comfortable.

 But Xuanyuan Yi frowned, seeming to be very dissatisfied with the ending.

After Yun Qing finished playing, he found that the young man had a pair of handsome eyebrows and looked at the flute in Yun Qing's hand with great annoyance.

Then, he tried to push forward a little, probably because he wanted to play the entire song step by step, but Yun Qing could hear that although he played the tune accurately, he obviously lacked confidence.

 Therefore, a cheerful piece of music inevitably brings a touch of sadness to the sound of his flute, which makes people feel quite sad when listening to it.

"Cough..." After playing the song, the young man seemed to be in great difficulty, and his face looked a little paler than before. After coughing, he turned around quickly, took out the handkerchief from his sleeve and wiped the corners of his mouth.

"Are you feeling unwell?" Yun Qing couldn't see his expression, but felt that he seemed to be in poor health.

"None of your business!" The young man suddenly turned around and glared at Yun Qing coldly, which made Yun Qing startled. He didn't know why he seemed to hate himself.

After a brief pause, she remembered that she accidentally broke into someone else's place without permission, and it was normal for others not to welcome her.

 Besides, in this palace, I always seem to be hated by everyone.

At the moment, she consciously smiled and apologized softly: "I'm sorry to bother you. I'll leave now!"

As she said that, under the indifferent gaze of the young man, she turned back the way she came.

"If you want to survive in this palace in the future, you'd better not be so curious." A faint voice came from behind. Yun Qing hesitated and turned back in surprise, only to see the young man still looking at him coldly.

Although he didn’t know whether it was a reminder or a warning, Yun Qing intuitively regarded it as a reminder to himself. He couldn’t help but raise the corners of his lips and said with a smile: “I understand, thank you!”

 As she spoke, she raised her sleeves as a farewell.

 Having just taken two steps, I heard a "thump" behind me, as if someone had fallen.

 Looking back, Yun Qing was startled. The young man leaned weakly on the tree branch and kept coughing loudly. She hurriedly ran back to support the boy who was trying to stop coughing, and asked with concern: "What's wrong with you? Are you cold? Is it okay?"

 “Cough, cough…” The young man’s face was pale, and he looked very scary under the dim starlight.

Especially when he was wheezing and coughing, Yun Qing saw that he seemed to glare at her, but he covered his face and pushed him away.

“His.” Yun Qing was unprepared and fell under a tree, scratching his ankle on a branch.

She gasped in pain and looked up at the incomprehensible young man with some confusion. She didn't know why he looked so rude despite being very handsome.

However, when she raised her head, her beautiful eyes widened in fright, and she screamed nervously: "Ah, you are coughing up blood..."

"Hmm." Yun Qing's voice was quickly silenced by Xuanyuan Yi's hand. His handsome eyebrows were furrowed. Although he was still slightly panting, the pain in his chest eased a lot after coughing up blood.

　　But this woman accidentally touched his sensitive spot, causing him to rush over and cover her mouth without thinking, and coldly warned: "Don't make any noise, otherwise you will regret it!"

Yun Qing was startled, and then realized that the young man's expression was completely different. Although he was cold and cold just now, he was not as chilling as he was before.

At this moment, under his ice-like eyes, she felt cold all over her body, and all the blood quickly solidified in his cold palms.

　　Fearfully nodded, Yun Qing felt that his hand finally loosened, allowing her to breathe easily.

"Huh!" She let out a long breath and saw the young man wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth with a handkerchief. Although his expression was cold, he seemed to have been used to this sudden symptom.

However, his slight breathing did not calm down. It still reminded Yun Qing that he must be in pain at this moment.

"Hemoptysis? Have you...had it for a long time?" Seeing him like this, Yun Qing, who had read some medical books, tried to ask him: "Have you asked the imperial doctor in the palace to look at it? If the situation is not serious, you can... "

"Shut up!" Xuanyuan Yi's handsome face sank. Before Yun Qing could finish speaking, he shot her a hard look and coldly squeezed out one word: "Let's go!"

 “You!” This time, Yun Qing finally got a little angry.

Although she disturbed him uninvited, she had apologized more than once. But just now I just tried to help him out of kindness, but he pushed me down.

Forget it, I have good intentions to care about his illness, but he refuses people thousands of miles away, which is really unreasonable.

"Okay, I can go. I don't know who you are, but I want to tell you: if you are sick, you must treat it, and you must treat it properly and promptly. Symptoms like yours have obviously been around for some time. If you are ...Ah!" Yun Qing was holding the ground and trying to stand up. Suddenly, a white shadow flashed in front of her eyes, and her body was lifted up by a pair of lean hands. With a little more force, she was quickly embraced into a body that was stronger than she imagined. Thin chest…

"Ugh!" Yun Qing's cry immediately turned into panic, and spread into the boundless night with the wind.

She looked at the young man with a frightening look in horror. Under his quick finger, she could no longer move. However, what frightened her the most was not the young man's skill, but the complicated and strange look on his face at this moment.

I saw that his breathing was getting faster and faster, his chest was rising and falling greatly, and his eyes were intense and eager, but he seemed to be trying hard to calm down but couldn't...

Yunqing discovered that what he was looking at was not his face, but his neck, which was covered by his collar!

Suddenly, when Yun Qing looked at him with wide eyes and fear, he actually pulled open Yun Qing's collar. His handsome eyes focused on the thin white neck, and his blood surged more and more, and he couldn't help but lower his head heavily. …

"Huh, my good queen, she came here late at night!" Just when Yun Qing was so frightened that he forgot to breathe because the former immortal suddenly turned into a demon, a soft hum came clearly from a place not far away. into her ears.

Xuanyuan Yi's hand was like lightning, and Yun Qing's body suddenly relaxed.

Xuanyuan Ze, who had been hiding on the palace wall and watching the two of them quietly, finally couldn't help but speak and stopped Xuanyuan Yi's next move.

I saw him stretching out his hand to lift the hem of his clothes, and the black robe lifted up gently like a roc spreading its wings. He straightened his body, tapped the branches lightly in mid-air, and his body was placed on the high wall not far away. The ground fell in front of Xuanyuan Yi and Yun Qing.

Your Majesty?

Yun Qing was so shocked that he broke into a cold sweat after what he had just done. Even though his acupuncture points had been resolved, he was unable to push Xuanyuan Yi away and still leaned on his arms.

She looked at the cold man who appeared in front of her with great shock. She was frightened by his extremely gloomy expression and subconsciously raised her hand to push Xuanyuan Yi.

Xuanyuan Yi's whole body stiffened, and his face became paler every moment. She could feel Yun Qing's arm shaking slightly, as if he was in pain.

He didn't even look at Xuanyuan Ze, he just glanced at Yun Qing strangely. Suddenly, he let go of his hand, and Yun Qing fell to the ground unexpectedly.

"It turns out to be the queen! The emperor came out late at night, but to find her?" Xuanyuan Yi turned to look at Xuanyuan Ze who looked ugly, and Xuanyuan Yi's voice sounded a bit unnatural. But Yun Qing could be sure that it wasn't because he and he were bumped into by Xuanyuan Ze here that he felt unnatural, but because there was something strange about his whole person that was hard to figure out.

 Brother Huang? Yun Qing was slightly surprised. His name was Emperor Xuanyuan Ze. Could he be the Emperor's younger brother?

Looking at the two of them carefully, Yun Qing found that if the expression on Xuanyuan Ze's face wasn't too cold and the young man's expression wasn't too weird, the two of them looked really similar.

  No wonder the Queen Mother was very kind to him that time, but he seemed to have deliberately alienated everyone.

"Humph!" Xuanyuan Ze still snorted coldly and did not answer. He just looked at Yun Qing hatefully and pressed his palms together tightly.

He really didn't expect that in just half a day, she couldn't help but seduce men again.

And this time the person she seduced was her fifth emperor brother who was born from the same mother!

 Does she really think her words fall on deaf ears? He repeatedly ignored his majesty and repeatedly challenged his endurance.

 Damn it, did she do it on purpose?

"Brother Imperial, it's getting late, it's cold outside, I have returned to the palace to rest!" Faced with Xuanyuan Ze's disregard, Xuanyuan Yi didn't mind, said good night, and left the Liyuan, leaving Yun Qing to face this moment alone. An angry man.

 “Speak! Why don’t you speak?” After a long time, Xuanyuan Ze spoke again.

He really couldn't imagine that if he hadn't come here, would all of today's inconveniences have become a foregone conclusion that could never be changed?

The sullen voice broke the silence around him, and it was so long that Yun Qing forgot that he was still sitting on the ground, looking up at the tall man looking down at him in a very embarrassed posture.

 She didn’t know why he appeared here? It was no coincidence that I saw such a scene.

"What a coincidence, Your Majesty!" With a faint nod, Yun Qing stood up from the ground with difficulty, looking into those sharp handsome eyes a little embarrassed, but the fear in his heart disappeared with Xuanyuan Yi's departure.

She knew very well that in front of him, the evidence of her guilt was conclusive and she could not defend herself.

 Remember that he had just warned himself during the day that he was not allowed to step out of the Golden Phoenix Palace from now on, otherwise, he would bear the consequences.

 But at this moment, not only did she not obey his instructions, but she also unexpectedly showed him that the young man seemed to be frivolous about him.

Xuanyuan Ze's handsome appearance changed, and he unnaturally avoided those pair of too clear beautiful eyes.

In fact, he felt uneasy when he heard the sudden sound of the flute after the flute. He was about to see why this woman was up so late, but he remembered that he had already made up his mind not to look at her again, so what? Can we go to Jinfeng Palace again?

 So, since he was not sleepy, he simply took a walk in the palace and went back when he felt sleepy.

If the sound of the flute had stopped before, he wouldn't worry about it anymore. Just when he was walking to the imperial garden, he heard the sound of the flute that he had heard before from Ningxin Palace, followed by the sound of the flute again, which made him feel strange.

Sure enough, when he turned back outside the palace wall of Ningxin Palace, he heard the faint conversation between a man and a woman coming from inside the palace. He immediately guessed that she had come here. When he turned over the wall, he saw that it was indeed her...

"Is it a coincidence? Why do I feel that the queen doesn't seem to be worried about herself at all?" He stepped forward and grabbed her hand. He smiled evilly, his handsome eyes fell on her slightly panicked face, and scolded: "Still, the queen wants to Challenging my patience, I want to confirm whether I am true to my words?”

"No!" Yun Qing's palms tightened, seeing that he was about to **** her jade flute, her heart skipped a beat and she blurted out.

"No?" Xuanyuan Ze only wanted to smash her jade flute that was causing trouble, but he was surprised to see her suddenly pale face, and his eyes were filled with panic.

 His eyes moved from her face to the jade flute, and he saw that there was a very noble jade pendant hanging on the jade flute.

"Give it to me!" Suspicious, he blurted out subconsciously, and actually called himself directly in front of Yun Qing. As expected, Yun Qing was very angry.

Yun Qing did not pay attention to his slip of the tongue. His mind was completely absorbed by his attempt to take away the jade flute. He clutched the flute tightly in fear and refused to let go.

Xuanyuan Ze became even more curious when he saw her. He squeezed her delicate wrist tightly and raised a cold smile on his lips: "Are you sure? Don't you want this arm?"

As long as he bends it lightly, this arm will be useless. He wanted to see whether it was the flute or her body that was more important.

"I..." Yun Qing suddenly woke up and Xuanyuanze realized that he valued the jade flute. However, if he didn't protect it, he would **** the jade flute and break it into pieces.

 No, this is the only thought Feng gave her. She cannot let it be destroyed by the person in front of her.

 “How?” Xuanyuan Ze raised his handsome eyebrows and waited quietly. It only took a moment for her to go from nervousness to indifference. If he hadn't seen it clearly just now, he would have thought he was dazzled.

“I would like to take off my crown and clothes, and leave everything to the emperor’s disposal.” Well, he came to make things difficult for him three times, wasn’t it just for this empty throne?

 After getting married and taking in a concubine, she ignored her when she returned home and was banned from entering the Golden Phoenix Palace. In a short period of time, he was in a lot of troubles. No matter how cautious he was in his words and actions, he was not allowed to see her. He only got tired of seeing her every time.

In this case, no matter how careful she is, after a while, she can't guarantee that she will live in this palace for the rest of her life.

His life has only been ups and downs for a few decades, and the little Yun family is already full of intrigues and sinister people. If the harem cannot accommodate him, there is no need to force him to stay.

His handsome eyes were narrowed deeply, and Xuanyuan Ze looked at that exquisite face showing an unprecedented indifference. Although it was mixed with a hint of sadness, it made his heart move.

Hands loosened subconsciously, he stared at her for a long while, and she stared back at him without flinching.

At this moment, Xuanyuan Ze suddenly realized why he always felt strange towards her, and why she could bring him a heartbeat that Wan'er had never felt before.

Now he understood, it was her eyes.

In her eyes, there is always a kind of strength and pride that makes people shocked; her eyes are always so clear that the beauty, ugliness, good and evil can be seen; under her strong gaze, there is also a faint heartache. of sadness…

"Okay, this is what you said!" As soon as he let go of his hand, Yun Qing fell back to the ground due to loss of strength. But she was lucky enough to protect the jade flute from breaking into two pieces.

Smiling seductively, she knew that the outcome had already been decided, and she could escape for a while, but not for the rest of her life.

 Back crown, phoenix body, glory, power!

People in the world only know that the back position is good, but they don’t know that the water is not troublesome, but the face is wrinkled by the wind; the mountains are not old, but the head is white because of the snow.

However, there are so many things in the world, it is better to just stand up and leave, everything will be over!

 “Let’s go!” Xuanyuan Ze, who was about to turn around and leave, saw Yun Qing’s incomparably beautiful smile, his eyes sank, as if he remembered something.

Then he stretched out his hand again and ignored Yunqing's panicked cry. He reached out and lightly grabbed her waist and jumped up. He easily led her up the palace wall and flew towards Jinfeng Palace.

"Stay in Jinfeng Palace and wait for my decree. Don't go anywhere!" Xuanyuanze took Yunqing back to Jinfeng Palace. Xuanyuanze left a cold instruction and disappeared as quickly as he came.

Yun Qing stayed inside the wall silently, looking at the wall where no one had been seen for a long time. She blinked her beautiful eyes and sighed quietly into the night.

 The next day, Bi Tao got up early, only to find that the young lady was still asleep, with the jade flute that the young lady regarded as a treasure still lying beside her pillow.

The purple tassels on the jade pendant gently fell on the young lady's face, making Bi Tao smile and reach out to gently help her take the jade flute away.

"Bitao?" Yun Qing was startled. When he opened his eyes, he saw that it was Bitao who had picked up the jade flute. He couldn't help but sit up gently: "What time is it?"

"It's just past nine o'clock." Bi Tao responded casually, but unexpectedly saw that the circles under the young lady's eyes were slightly blue. She couldn't help but be surprised: "Young lady didn't sleep last night, okay? The circles under her eyes are all blue."

Suddenly, she remembered that the young lady must not have slept well because she saw Mr. Feng yesterday. She couldn't help but sigh softly and said: "Miss, what are you doing? Although Mr. Feng and the young lady are destined to be together, they have no relationship in the end... Alas, Your Majesty He is so ruthless to the young lady. Thinking about it, he is far worse than Mr. Feng. Oh, young lady, how are you going to live well in the future?"

Bitao wanted to comfort Yun Qing, but in the end, she herself became sad.

"Yes, although we are destined, we are not separated." Yun Qing murmured, her beautiful eyes sad again: "I also know that he and I are destined but not destined, but everything is easier said than done. A feeling, not If you say let it go, you can let it go easily...Bitao, I'm sorry for causing you trouble."

"Miss, why do you say that? Bitao is lucky to follow the lady. It is Bitao's blessing to meet such a good master like the lady. Bitao is not afraid of suffering with the lady, but she is afraid that the lady will suffer..." Bitao was anxious to comfort her. Yun Qing, when he finally spoke, his voice choked up and he could no longer speak.

“Silly Bi Tao, I said you are not miserable, but you have already lost weight just a few days after entering the palace.” Yun Qing caressed Bi Tao’s thin chin lovingly, complaining in his heart that he was useless.

 In the past, in Yun Mansion, I couldn't help Bitao live a better life. I didn't want to enter the palace, but I had to make her worry about him. well!

"How can you be thin? Miss, you are even thinner. Look at your wrists, they are so..." Bi Tao touched her face exaggeratedly, then reached out to take Yun Qing's hand, and lifted her sleeves, but She was frightened by the obvious bruise on her wrist: "Miss, what's going on?"

She carefully rubbed Yun Qing's hand, her eyes filled with confusion and even more distress.

  Last night when I undressed the young lady, I didn't see the blue marks on her hands. Why are there such obvious marks now?

"It's okay." Yun Qing subconsciously wanted to withdraw his hand, but Bi Tao refused, and then suddenly let Yun Qing go, turned around and ran out of the curtain.

"Bitao, where are you going..." Yun Qing hurriedly got up and got out of bed, but his ankle hurt and he couldn't help but tilted his body and sat back on the edge of the bed again.

Bitao heard the voice and turned around to see the young lady frowning slightly and reaching out to touch her feet.

She thought with a kick in her heart that the young lady had accidentally twisted her foot, so she quickly pulled back. While helping Yun Qing check it, she complained: "What's wrong? Did you twist your foot? It was such an accident... Where can I go?" , I just went back to the room to get the bruise medicine we brought from Yun Mansion. Miss forgot, it is what Miss and I often use in Yun Mansion..."

As she spoke, she couldn't help but shed tears when she saw Yun Qing's injured ankle. She finally understood why the lady's eyes were blue and why there were bruises on her hands.

It turned out that the lady had a new wound on her foot.

She didn't dare to ask the young lady where these injuries came from.

 In the past, in Yun Mansion, the young lady just wanted to stay well in the West Courtyard, but there were always people who saw something wrong with her and came to provoke her again and again.

 So, she and the lady were almost used to minor injuries and pains.

It wasn’t until one time that the flowers and plants that he and his lady had carefully cared for were destroyed overnight, that the lady was completely heartbroken, and she completely became the most powerful third lady of the Yun Mansion that no one had ever seen before.
