The Empress Behind the Veil
Chapter 7 The Cold Heart
The white cloth covering his body was like a lamp in this darkness. The wind blew, the white cloth wrapped around his body floated, like in a dreamland. His face was covered in a black veil, the journey out of this palace seemed to drain all his strength.
His gaze was pitch-black, like his mood that found no way out.
If this is called empress, first lady, she prefers to be an ordinary girl who lives a simple life with her loved ones, accompany her husband, educate children for life.
Where is he going now?
There was no one there, the current condition of the empress was very concerning, tattered clothes, messy hair, no different from the homeless woman on the street.
With a bitter laugh, the foot that stepped on this golden staircase was like stepping on ice that had been frozen for thousands of years, the feeling of a cold heart made him forget the warm and happy taste.
After walking another step, he lay down, his hair scattered, his body rolling like a wheel.
The pain spread throughout his body, who could come to his aid? After leaving his father's side, who could come to his aid in this cold and terrible palace?
Her tears drenched the black veil and entered into the mouth, this salty taste, making her heart even more sick.
Right now, Qin Ruojiu's heart was greatly disappointed, all the beauty of his dreams was shattered in an instant.
Before, so many people were envious of her who would become empress, and achieved the ideals of all the women in this world. Emperor Zhaolie is handsome, agile in martial arts, although still young, but can run the government well. Power is in his hands. Although sometimes he is arbitrary, but still including wise and fair. Many high ranking officials who are meritorious or authoritative can not be sneaky in front of him.
“Empress... Why are you here?”
As tears welled up and the heart was in pain, suddenly a steady and persistent voice came from behind him.
Then there was a sense of warmth coming from both of his shoulders. Qin Ruojiu turned around, seen a man dressed in armor and carrying a black-purple-colored sword squatting beside him. Right now, the man was putting on a sleeveless coat to her.
His two eyes were like stars, the good looks from his face did not hold any evil intent, with a attentive look, he looked at him. The virility nature and the large tall body made Qin Roujiu feel like finding a backrest.
“Empress, you..”.
“Who are you?” Qin Ruojiu pulled on the coat while looking at the man.
The man's hand was cross-legged respectfully, “I was the commander of the palace's security forces, Zhuo Ying. Today is the day His Majesty proposed to the empress, so all the palace guards were moved. I came here because I was not calm!”
In the dark night, there was the sound of insects that did not stop.
The wind blew, her hair fluttered on both her cheeks, the veil on her face was slightly waving.
Zhuo Ying was caught off guard, was this the female magician that others often told her about, the empress of Kangqing Country? Is he as bad as he was told? But his movements now even look like a very beautiful woman, which can make people feel affection for him.
