The Empress Behind the Veil
Chapter 198 The Pain That Cannot Be Revealed
Zhao Yaunran and Su Zhener who were at the bottom also looked extremely annoyed. This was the first time they were in the same position as Qin Ruojiu. They both felt so upset and hated by the woman in the painting. True, Emperors are their gods, Emperors are where they lean. For the sake of being able to get the heart of the Emperor, they continued to try and various ways they had done. Although they had to lose to Qin Ruojiu, but at least they still felt willing. That meant Qin Ruojiu was more powerful and smarter than them. At least they could see the living Qin Ruojiu standing in front of them, but this time, it turned out that they had lost to a painting.
She was just a woman who had never appeared and lived far away in her country. Based on what this painting could instantly steal the Emperor's attention and make him unable to escape from this painting. Even in the face of Kasiar emanated affection and care that they never met. Why, why ... while Prince Funing deliberately handed the painting to Emperor Zhaolie in front of all to humiliate them, besides that she was also being proud of women from Beifeng Country and showed that women from their country were much more prominent than women in Kangqing Country?
After a while, Emperor Zhaolie could only take his eyes off the painting and order the palace troops, “Save this painting. The Emperor was very satisfied with the gift that Prince Funing gave. The emperor could already feel the sadness that the princess was feeling.”
Prince Funing immediately smiled widely, then he deliberately raised his hand and pretended to feel condolent and said, “Good if the Emperor likes, but the Queen ..”.
“Queen is a generous and airy woman. This is just a painting, how could the Queen feel offended? After all, behind the Emperor's palace there were so many beautiful women, if only the Queen was irritable, how could she possibly be the Queen? Right no? My queen?” Finished speaking, Emperor Zhaolie turned to Qin Ruojiu and looked at him with a heartless cold gaze. He showed a cynical smile at the end of his lips.
Qin Ruojiu lifted her head and looked straight into her eyes, she smiled indifferently and said, “As a Queen, I am also speechless. As long as the Emperor likes it, I can't block it either.” It seemed like he was already too high-minded of himself, inside the eyes of the man, he was really nothing.
Queen ... queen .. Why, why is she smiling?
Su Zhener and Zhao Yuanran were looking at Qin Ruojiu with confused gazes. Even the two of them looked so unwilling and wanted to fight back. True, this time they themselves also felt defeated, they were not inferior to Qin Ruojiu, but to the woman in the painting. Although the woman did not appear before them, but the painting was already like a hard slap that landed on the faces of the three of them. And the woman who had a higher status and was more dear to the Emperor was also bound to feel even greater pain.
The ice-silent Kang Yin had been feeling angry and cold ever since the painting was taken out. His eyes looked so sharp and horrible. When he saw his brother treating Qin Ruojiu like that, his heart felt extremely devastated. Without him noticing he immediately said in a cold tone, “Enough, Prince Funing's gift has also been handed over, please return to the position. Now the dance will be shown soon. Being late too long is not good either!”
The words that Kang Yin said instantly broke that cold atmosphere.
A little while later, the lights on the side were turned on and a sound of music entered the palace.
Seven to eight ladies and gentlemen entered the palace with a musical reception. They also dance in colorful dresses that they are wearing.
Raising their heads, they could see the moon in such a bright spring. Under the moonlight, the ladies danced while raising their hands.
Every now and then they take out their fans and make weak, graceful movements.
