The Empress Behind the Veil

Chapter 38 Duty As Empress

Qin Ruojiu was silent for a long time before saying, “It's okay. If Your Majesty is tired, please return to Zhaolie Palace, tomorrow morning there is still a meeting that Your Majesty must attend.”

“You kicked me out?” Kang Yong was upset. All the women beside him always wished he could stay and sleep with them. But the woman before this, a consort, drove him away. He even kicked her out casually, his pride as a man was offended.

“No. I only give priority to Your Majesty's health,” Qin Ruojiu said flatly, her beautiful eyes, empty without emotion.

Kangyong felt that this woman's eyes were very beautiful, even her voice was also pleasant to hear.

Hearing this reason, Kang Yong raised an eyebrow, then said in a heavy tone, “Must I not sleep here? As empress, have you forgotten, your main task is to serve me?”

Qin Ruojiu raised her head, the eyes of that person were full of insinuations, Qin Ruojiu bit her lips and held back, she knew that this person indeed deliberately wanted to torture her, testing her. So, he also pretended to be trapped, because this man is too dangerous, unpredictable, the more resisted, he will torture him even more.

Qin Ruojiu looked at him helplessly, “If Your Majesty wants to stay, I will serve Your Majesty.”

Finally this fox tail appeared as well. It turned out that all those words were just a ruse.

Awesome, great. Truly a child of a witch, her stratagem was different from other women.

Kang Yong turned his back, disgusted at this hypocritical woman, he yelled, “No need. I just talk to you, the Empress goes to sleep. I don't want to see your face at night and have nightmares later.”

Qin Ruojiu did not respond to the insinuation, but rather said softly, “If Your Majesty already has a plan, I cannot force it either, I will immediately have people pick up Your Majesty.”

“No need, I can do it myself!”

Qin Ruojiu knelt down politely and without looking at him. He was even willing to lay on the floor if it could make this demon-like man leave. Yes, to Qin Ruojiu, this person was already raining again her husband, but it was the god of death that always made her wary and afraid.

Kang Yong even hesitated. This woman apparently did not have any reaction when she heard that she wanted to leave. The other woman, must have been sad, disappointed. But from the words of this woman, it felt like she was free.

Actually this witch boy wants her to settle down or wants her to leave? Why is it so hard to guess?

On the second day, Qin Ruojiu was still lying on the bed.

Sweat drenched his body, his eyes closed tightly, his hands clasped onto the blanket, like he was having a nightmare. Her suffering in the dream made her keep wriggling around, if not for Lu’Er calling her, she would probably suffer even more.

“Empress... Empress... quickly wake up...”.

“Onspect..”.

“Aaa..” shouted Qin Ruojiu then got up and sat down on the bed. Although his face was covered with a veil, it was clear from his eyes that he was very frightened.

“Empress, are you okay?” Lu’Er was very worried and could not bear to see Qin Ruojiu like that.

After Qin Ruojiu regained consciousness, she just shook her head limply, then wiped the sweat off her forehead. His expression paled and he lowered his head, “I'm fine, now what time is it ?”
