The Empress Behind the Veil

Chapter 167 Sadness

This man was her husband and now this man was the only man who could be her backing. He can't suspect her. Now she gave a gentle smile to him. His pupils looked so clear, black and bright. It was as if two rare black pearl grains were stored within the deep ocean. That smile seemed to instantly erase all the suspicions that had previously been in his heart.

Although he could not see his facial expression clearly, but only with the gaze of his eyes that were so clear and bright could he instantly feel the tenderness of his heart. Good, his smile was indeed very cool like the wind in spring and could instantly calm his heart. Had it not been for the cruel torment she once inflicted on this woman, now this woman would definitely be a smiley woman!

Qin Ruojiu said, “Emperor, you have come?”

Emperor Zhaolie was a little stunned, he seemed as if he had just regained consciousness. He immediately walked forward and clasped Qin Ruojiu's hand. After that he immediately pulled her into his arms and hugged her.

Not knowing why every time he saw this woman, he wanted to directly hug her. He did not want to talk to this woman from a distance.

“True, Kasiar heard you just came home from the suburbs, so the Emperor deliberately came here to see you!”

After hearing that, Qin Ruojiu felt slightly moved and said, “There really is no other business that you should take care of? Suddenly come here, do the ministers of the kingdom not mind?”

The Emperor continued to hug him and placed his chin on Qin Ruojiu's head. He closed both his eyes and took a deep breath to smell the gentle scent of Qin Ruojiu's body. The scent instantly made him feel calm and relaxed. “It's okay. The emperor sent someone else to take care of him. Oh yes, the Emperor with the eunuchs said, Your mood today is not so good? What was? Is it because the Emperor did not accompany you to play, so you are not happy?”

“Really? Then next time let the Emperor himself accompany you for a walk, Ruojiu, how do you think?”

Qin Ruojiu lifted her head then looked into her eyes. After that he nodded his head and he really felt very moved. The Emperor really liked him, otherwise he would not have been able to take the time in the midst of his busy life to accompany him to go for a walk. Although the current Emperor Zhaolie considered him to be Li Qing, he could also accept him. At the very least, the Emperor called out his name, — Ruojiu!

It had been until nightfall, Emperor Zhaolie had still not left Qin Ruojiu's place and still remained with him by his side. That day, it could be said that Emperor Zhaolie treated and cared for him well. This made the officials from Qingyi Palace and Xiaoyang Pavilion who heard this news feel angry. They were very upset and angry, but they were also helpless and could do nothing.

Actually, the purpose of Emperor Zhaolie coming here today is not just to accompany him to play and help him eliminate his boredom. But the goal here today is to take him to the manufacture of clothes to make clothes that fit his size. Since Emperor Zhaolie had said before, a few more days of the words of the Feng Bei Kingdom would come to negotiate a friendship between these two countries. Therefore, as Queen Kang Qing, Ruo Qingjiu must be present at the palace banquet charmingly.

Recalling that in a few more days he would sit next to Emperor Zhaolie and meet with the officials of the state empire, Qin Ruojiu began to feel nervous and unsettled. However, Qin Ruojiu never thought that one day he would be able to sit down with this grandest and most powerful man at the state banquet and be seen by the government envoys.

During this time Qin Ruojiu had always placed herself in a very low place, she had always judged herself to be low. Therefore, when he thought about it, he felt it all like a dream and not like reality. He was even a little afraid, afraid that behind this beauty was hidden a blood-filled cruelty.

Emperor Zhaolie continued to look towards Qin Ruojiu who was walking back and did not say anything in a moment's time. The gentle look in his eyes was able to make people feel sad and a little dazed.
