Palace Scheming: the Queen In the Cold Palace I

Chapter 35 Jade and pure ice capture your heart (4)

"Why, you doubt me?" With a slight smile, he resisted the urge to hug her into his arms, walked to the table and sat down, and with a wave of his hand, asked Xiao Taohong and Bitao to go out and pour him tea.

Bitao and Xiao Taohong glanced at Yunqing in embarrassment, and when they saw that Yunqing nodded without any concern, the two of them withdrew uneasily.

"Haha, it's not doubtful, it's hard to believe." Yun Qing smiled and shook his head, the warmth in his eyes made Xuanyuan Moyu fascinated.

 Her smile is always as light as the breeze, and her voice is always so warm and calm.

 Qing'er, finally woke up! Does she know how worried he was during her coma?

"Oh..." Just when Yun Qing noticed that Xuanyuan Moyu's expression was not normal, his eyes suddenly blurred, and his slightly startled voice was quickly muffled by a pair of cold hands.

"Shh, don't be afraid, I won't hurt you." Seeing her panicked look, Xuanyuan Moyu's handsome eyes couldn't help but darken a little, and his voice lost its free and easy tone.

 He thought that he had put his heart into her, and she should feel it too.

 But her reaction just now was very wary of herself, just like when he checked her pulse just now, her desire to refuse was so obvious.

 Qing'er, did you know that your expression can hurt others?

Yun Qing frowned slightly, wondering what he wanted to do?

It’s not that she’s afraid of him, it’s just that his elusive style still makes her heart beat faster and she screams in surprise every time he uses it.

At this moment, he reached out his hand to cover his mouth again. This was an extremely inappropriate move, so she reached out to pull his hand away. However, she found that his body was shocked, and then the palm of his hand reflexively reached out to pull his hand away. Her little hands were tightly wrapped in her palms.

"You..." Yun Qing couldn't help but feel annoyed. Although his character had always been casual, he couldn't be so frivolous or inappropriate!

"Qing'er!" But just as she was about to get angry, she heard him speak quietly. He, who was always cheerful and casual, actually deeply evoked the infatuated call that she often heard in Yun Qing's dreams.

 Chinger?

Yun Qing was stunned for a moment, his eyes widened suddenly, he raised his head in disbelief and looked into those extremely deep eyes, and his body froze for a moment.

She saw that his eyes were full of deep affection and longing, so intense that she couldn't look away.

She also couldn't believe it: could a romantic prince who had always been bohemian have such infatuated eyes and such deep longing?

"You...are you?" After a brief moment of silence, Yun Qing hurriedly took her hand away from him, her cheeks feeling unnaturally hot.

 She couldn't believe it, it was him!

 I thought it was just an illusion in my dream, but I didn’t expect it to be true?

It is he who always holds my hand with great tenderness and calls out affectionately in the dead of night; it is he who always feeds himself water when he murmurs that he is thirsty; it is he who always sends a wave of water to his body when he is in pain and sadness. Warm air flowed into her body; was he the one who always made her feel his presence these past few days but was always missing?

 “It’s me!” Looking at her disbelieving eyes with some disappointment, Xuanyuan Moyu raised a frustrated smile at the corner of his mouth.

She was not completely insensible, but she never thought that the person who secretly protected her would be herself.

 Hehe, no wonder she doesn’t believe it! Even he couldn't believe it. She didn't know when she had quietly occupied his entire heart.

Qing'er, Qing'er, she is the only woman in the world who makes his heart beat, and she will also be the only woman he wants to have.

"I... thank the prince for his care for Yun Qing. Yun Qing has nothing to repay. I also ask the prince to let Yunqing get out of bed to thank the prince for his kindness." His beautiful eyes flashed, and Yun Qing did not dare to look at those handsome eyes full of affection again. .

 Because it was as deep as the sea and she couldn't bear it.

 He is the prince and she is the queen. She and he are destined to be two incompatible people!

 In the harem, the prince and courtiers should avoid suspicion, but because of his special status, she lost her usual prejudice against him.

 However, she cannot have any more involvement with him! She may sympathize with his childhood experiences, and he may appreciate her indifferent character, but these are not the reasons for her to be so close to him.

 So, this alienation is destined to need her to fulfill it.

 So, she quickly put away her troubled mind and put on a distant look, reminding him that he should meet her formally instead of getting along with her at such a close distance.

"Ha, you will indeed break my heart." Looking at her deliberate alienation, Xuanyuan Moyu laughed at himself and did not withdraw. He just took out a piece of dark green jade from his arms, which was made of the same quality as a top-quality square inkstone. But it was only an inch square in size, and its color was dull.

Yun Qing didn't answer or move. He just looked at the thing in his hand silently, wondering what it meant.

"This is a birthday gift given to me by my mother-in-law when I was six years old. It was my mother-in-law's favorite piece of black jade in her life, and it was also a jade pendant that I have been wearing with me for fourteen years and never took it off. Now, I have It's for you!" He handed the ink jade in front of her eyes, with a deep attachment on his handsome face, "I will leave Tiancheng tomorrow. I hope you can watch me while I am away. It still remembers me.”

"You want to leave?" Yun Qing was slightly startled and couldn't help but raise her eyes to look at him, but she saw a deep meaning hidden in his eyes that she couldn't understand.

"Yes, I have to go to Guyang City. I may not come back to see you for more than a month." Xuanyuan Moyu smiled faintly, but there was a trace of indifference in his voice. Yunqing was startled and blurted out: "Gu Yang ? Are you going to the northwest?"

She did not expect that he would go to the border. There was a rebellion there. Did the emperor send him to quell the rebellion?

"I asked for it!" As if he knew what she was thinking, Xuanyuan Moyu took her hand and put the ink jade in her hand. Yun Qing immediately felt the coldness of the jade, which quickly spread to her palms.

"Why?" She still didn't understand why he, who always liked to travel and had no confidence, wanted to go to such a distant place?

Not to mention his casual temperament, how could the Emperor Xuanyuan Ze trust him to handle such a sensitive situation alone?

Although the northwest is just a minor disturbance, if it is not handled carefully, it may affect the stability of the two countries and cause unnecessary war.

Frustrated by the suspicion in her eyes, Xuanyuan Moyu smiled bitterly in his heart. It seemed that in her heart, it would be difficult for him to change his reputation as an idler.

It doesn't matter, anyway, he has long been accustomed to the eyes of the world. As long as she can have a little more heartbeat in her eyes when she looks at him in the near future, he will be satisfied.

"Haha, because I don't want to be an idle king anymore, and I don't want you to look down on me!" He laughed casually, with a consistent joke in his voice, but Yun Qing could hear that he was not joking.

"I've never looked down on you!" Yun Qing shook his head gently. Knowing that he didn't say it clearly, he stopped asking. He just looked at the heavy piece of black jade in his hand, but couldn't close his palm. "Actually, maybe in the eyes of the world, you You have always been idle, but I believe that if you work hard, your talents will impress everyone. Hehe, you should keep this jade, I don’t want to take away people’s love! Besides, it is of no use to me.”

She remembered his paintings, from vague at the beginning to lifelike at the end, all proving his ability.

 How could he achieve such an achievement at a young age, let alone what he is today!

 “Why is it useless?” When the voice came up, Xuanyuan Moyu’s eyes were full of resentment.

　　His heart couldn't help but be inexplicably happy after hearing her first words, but when he heard her next words again, the joy that had risen in him immediately sank heavily to the bottom.

A pair of handsome phoenix eyes also dimmed, staring closely into her clear eyes, and their palms were clenched tightly together unconsciously.

"That flute is useful to you, isn't it? So you keep it with you, day and night!" He suddenly reached out to turn over her pillow, which startled Yun Qing, who quickly reached out to stop him.

“Don’t touch it!” She screamed, looking at the jade flute in Xuanyuan Moyu’s hand, her heart also lifted.

Xuanyuan Moyu just handed the jade flute to her eyes. Looking at her nervous eyes, his eyes became even more frustrated: "Because the person who gave you this flute is the person you love deeply, right?"

"You..." Yun Qing was speechless and looked at him with a dejected expression in disbelief. Why was he so sure that this flute was given to him by someone else?

“The wind is light and the clouds are light, the clouds are light and the wind is light! Ha…his name is Feng, isn’t he?” He smiled awkwardly at the corner of his mouth, looking at her captivating beautiful eyes, he really wanted to sink into them and never wake up.

 But why is her nervousness and rejection so obvious?

 Feng, the man in the painting, the name she called out several times in her coma, was it really that important in her heart?

"You saw that painting, didn't you?" Yun Qing lowered his eyes, knowing that he would not hurt herself, and his voice became calmer.

Hearing him talk about the inscription on his painting, she remembered that he must have seen the painting he made casually in Cuiwei Palace.

She didn’t expect that he could tell at a glance that her jade flute and the one in the painting were the same thing.

"On this day last year, in this door, people's faces and peach blossoms reflected each other's colors. I don't know where to go, but the peach blossoms still smile in the spring breeze!" Seeing her sigh, his heart couldn't help but tighten, and he was deeply hurt by her melancholy look. .

On her wedding day, the person she had been obsessed with was that Feng, right? But, did she know that her absent-minded look had already easily opened his heart?

The shock in Yun Qing's eyes can be described as horror. She looked at the handsome man in front of her with her eyes wide open. From his sad expression, she knew that he was not reciting poetry casually.

"You, how do you know?" She was stunned, wondering how much he knew about her and the wind's story.

"Tell me, Qing'er, do you love him?" He couldn't help but touch her perfect face, but Yun Qing suddenly came back to his senses, and his hand was frozen in the air, and the air in the back hall was depressing for a moment. Both of them couldn't breathe.

He had sent someone to investigate the man carefully and found out that he was a grain merchant from Fenglai Country. Although he was young, he had a prominent position. The grain shops and rice warehouses he ran were almost all over the two big countries of Fenglai and Longzhen, which was Tianque. In the past two years, there have been many shops named Du's in the country, and their assets are astonishingly huge.

It's just that the identity of this person has never been verified. It is only known that he is seventeen years old, which makes Xuanyuan Moyu extremely amazed.

 It is said that he also did business secretly. The scale was large but it did not attract anyone's attention, so it needed to be operated in the name of some subordinates.

I don't want this person to be young, but can be listed under the name. It really makes people dare not peep, and it is even more shocking.

Xuanyuan Moyu didn't know what Xuanyuan Ze, who was also secretly investigating this person's identity, found out! He only knew that with the intelligence organization he had established over the years, he could only find these superficial signs.

 It seems that this person is a great threat to him, whether he is an enemy or a friend.

"Does it matter whether you love or not? I am Yunqing, the queen of Tianque Kingdom!" Yunqing sighed quietly. This was the ending between her and Feng, and what she wanted to say to Xuanyuan Moyu.

 Whether he means it or not, she will never accept his intention.

"if…"
