The Empress Behind the Veil
Chapter 239 Shouldn't Make the Emperor Wait Long
For Qin Ruojiu, Zhao Yuanran's words today though made her a little surprised, but after thinking about it with dignity, it was precisely because her meeting with Zhao Yuanran that Qin Ruojiu could dispel the anxiety in her heart. Not nervous about doing anything well.
After Lu’er and the others heard the remark, they felt it was reasonable and nodded in unison.
When he returned to Fengyi Palace, Qin Ruojiu's face was already filled with a look of exhaustion. Yes, after a day filled with fear, a truly thrilling moment had come, Qin Ruojiu looked even more nervous and unsettled.
The moment the door opened, once it turned around, a handsome face so cold and resolute it suddenly appeared before the four of them.
Not knowing what because of his conscience felt guilty or because of the sudden appearance of Emperor Zhaolie, made the four of them so shocked. The expressions on their faces were not calm, the gazes of their eyes did not even have the courage to stare directly and just stare directly at the ground.
But Qin Ruojiu who was a Queen, raised her eyes and did not dare to run away, Qin Ruojiu then called out in a soft voice: “Emperor.”
Emperor Zhaolie dressed in a golden-coloured dragon robe, walked over past the curtains, bringing along a cool breeze, white mist scattered in all directions, and the, clearly highlighting the line of the handsome man's face behind the curtains that looked like an engraved painting, his face was so handsome, cold and elegant, he said, his long and smooth black hair was loosely tied with a jewel-studded hair tie, naturally scattered on his delicate shoulders, the candlelight in the distance shone on his skin, reflecting a color similar to a golden light, whereas Emperor Zhaolie himself was already like a golden King who had come from a foreign land, the elegant and outer aura intertwined with each other strangely, revealing a kind of elegance, a kind of elegance, inside the darkness silently stole all eyes.
Emperor Zhaolie did not know why this appearance made the faces of the four people so strange.
But Emperor Zhaolie did not ask, only saying in a calm and clear tone: “Why? Surprised?”
Lu’er and the others knew the Empress did not want so many people present there to not reveal anything. Just then also Lu’er immediately nodded and rushed backwards.
After they left, Qin Ruojiu gradually retracted his gaze, steadied his gaze then walked slowly to the side of Emperor Zhaolie: “Emperor has been waiting here for a long time right? It's all my fault for being greedy for the beauty in the garden, so I came home late and ignored the Emperor, I beg the Emperor to forgive me.”
Listening to Qin Ruojiu's words that were so foreign and polite, Emperor Zhaolie grabbed Qin Ruojiu's hand, smiled wickedly and said with a hint of surprise in the look in his eyes: “Why? Just don't meet 1 day, why is your tone of voice so strange? I never blamed you, but you were so diligent about admitting mistakes, did you do something that embarrassed me?”
Hearing this remark, Qin Ruojiu subconsciously took a step back, instantly holding her breath and biting her lower lip, taking a long time to make herself seem more natural.
Qin Ruojiu said: “Emperor thinks too much, my heart just feels uncomfortable because it shouldn't make the Emperor wait long.”
Seeing Qin Ruojiu's reaction like this, Emperor Zhaolie's initial doubts disappeared in an instant: “No problem, I don't blame you. No wonder, sooner or later it would definitely feel bored in Fengyi Palace all day, it was indeed better to go for a walk. I've been busy with official affairs lately, I can't take the time to keep you company.”
At this moment, this remark instead caused ripples in Qin Ruojiu's heart. Behind the black gauze, Qin Ruojiu bit her lips, her beautiful little face was filled with a guilty look, Qin Ruojiu did not dare to look at her. Yes, Emperor Zhaolie was really very kind to him, an undeniable kindness.
