Chapter 124

In the afternoon of the same day, Xuanyuan Yeya sent over the colorful glazed hairpin, and with it, a chubby silver fox. After looking at the silver fox for a stick of incense, Shangguan Qi

I decided to name it Xue'er, because the way this fox looked at her was purer, more watery, and so cute than the flying white snow. And this silver fox seemed to like her as its master very much, and was tired of her.

She acted coquettishly in her arms, and from time to time rubbed her head against her arms like a baby.

"Hey, you said that if I go out with such a fox, people will know that I am a rich man. What if you have a wrong idea and want to rob me?" He held the little fox with both hands and watched it twist.

Shangguan Qi looked around with his small head and round eyes, and let out a small hiss from time to time. Shangguan Qi sighed. Looking at Xuanyuan Yeya who was sitting on the soft couch beside him reading a book, he asked, "Why don't I take it?"

The skin was pulled out and made into a scarf, so it looks more low-key."

Xuanyuan Yeya twitched the corner of his mouth and the book slipped from his hand. Looking at Shangguan Qi who was looking at him with a smile, he knew that he had been deceived by her. He rolled his eyes at her and took the teapot on the side to make himself a cup.

Herbal tea.

"It's up to you, but I'm afraid there's only one person in the world who can wear a scarf made of silver fox." He glanced at her, and he knew what he wanted to express without saying anything else. Shangguan Qi looked at the man he held up high again.

The little thing got up. Look at it lazily yawning, opening its mouth coquettishly towards itself, and then waving its little hooves eager for her embrace. It looked like a little baby, and suddenly maternal love

Panlan, held it in his arms and rubbed its little head, "Wow, it's so cute! It's decided, you will be my son from now on! Come on, son, call mommy." [

"Ouch -" Although the little fox didn't understand what it meant, when he saw his master opening his mouth, he opened his mouth and screamed. Then he was enthusiastically embraced by his master. But he was not in his arms yet.

After staying there for a moment, a big hand suddenly picked him up and pulled him out of the embrace.

"Ouch——"

The little fox screamed angrily and waved its little hooves, hoping to return to Shangguan Qi's arms. Its round eyes were misty, as if it had been greatly wronged. That pitiful look suddenly softened Shangguan Qi's eyes.

He suddenly stood up and glared at the man.

"Put down my son!"

"..." Xuanyuan Yeya twitched the corner of his mouth fiercely again, glanced at the fox in his hand, and then looked at Shangguan Qi who was glaring at him in front of him. He took a deep breath, and then squeezed it through his teeth.

A few words came out: "Son? Did you call him son?"

If it was her son, wouldn't it also be his son? Could it be that his Xuanyuan Yeya's first son was a fox?

"What are you doing? Is there a problem?" He grabbed the silver fox and held it in his arms. Seeing him huddled in his arms and rubbing his head pitifully, making a cry of grievance, he suddenly felt that this fox was really not an ordinary one.

Understand people's "nature".

"What do you think?" he asked with his hands on his waist.

"I said..." Seeing his angry look, and remembering the name he had always cared about, he suddenly couldn't help laughing. "You are so cute sometimes! What? Do you want him to be called

Your father?"

"That's what you hope!" He rolled his eyes at her. Then he looked at the silver fox who was snickering in her arms. The anger in his heart became even stronger, but he thought that people can't compete with animals. He snorted coldly and sat back on the soft couch.

Went reading a book.

"What are you looking at? Have you finished approving the memorial?" I saw him lying on the soft couch with his legs bent, holding a book in one hand and tapping on the table with the other. A cup of tea next to his hand was steaming with hot and humid mist.

His "color" is peaceful and his eyes are calm, as if it is not Xuanyuan who is in danger, but other countries.

"You don't seem to want me to rest, right?" His deep eyes lazily lifted up from the book and glanced at Shangguan Qi opposite, who was lowering his head to tease the silver fox.

"No way..." She turned away from his sight, rubbed Silver Fox's little head, and pouted, "It's just that I'm not used to seeing you so leisurely at this tense time."

"

"All that needs to be done is done, and the rest is the matter of the ministers." He picked up the tea cup and was about to put it to his mouth when he suddenly remembered something and said with a smile, "You said I am leisurely, don't you?

What? I remember someone seemed to have said something, that is, worry about the world's worries first, and be happy after the world's happiness. So do you think your current behavior has fulfilled this sentence? "

Shangguan Qi twitched the corner of his mouth and rolled his eyes when he looked at Xuanyuan Yeya who was smiling treacherously. She remembered this sentence when she was discussing political affairs with them before. At that time, they thought it was her.

He also gave her a small compliment. Unexpectedly, today he would use the words to attack her. It was true that ten years were in the east of Hedong and ten years were in Hexi! But...

"That's because I'm a queen, not an emperor. This is your world, and those people are your people! It's you who are responsible for them, not me, a palace empress who should be embroidering butterflies. You said you are

If the people outside see this, they will definitely say that you are a foolish king who only cares about pleasure."

"If you look like this and you are a comatose king, then I have been comatose for several years." Xuanyuan Yeya simply threw the book aside and started chatting with her directly. "And I don't mind having a queen like you who loses her head with things to accompany you.

Be a faint king. A faint queen is a perfect match for a faint king!"

"You're just playing with things!" He stood up and glared at him fiercely. Then he walked up to him with the silver fox in his arms. "If you don't like it, why did you give it to me?"

Xuanyuan Yeya looked at Shangguan Qi holding the two front legs of the silver fox with both hands and looking at him angrily. The silver fox also stared at him with big round eyes, with grievances and resentments in his eyes.

There was a hint of incomprehensible resentment. One person and one fox, the four eyes looking at him like cold arrows made him feel uncomfortable. He took Shangguan Qi's arm and asked her to sit next to him, then reached out and "touched" the silver fox.

little head.[

"I gave it to you just because I thought you would be bored by yourself, so I gave you a toy to relieve your boredom. But I didn't expect that on the first day, I would see the signs that you were getting bored playing with toys." Withdrawing his hand, he leaned on the back of the chair and looked at Shangguan Qi,

He reached for her long hair hanging on her chest, felt the soft touch of the hair, and sighed softly.

"Then take it away." He threw the fox into his arms, then closed his eyes and lay on the other side to rest. Although he was very reluctant to part with that little thing, he didn't want to be called a plaything.

"What? Are you angry?" Xuanyuan Yeya looked at Shangguan Qi, who was lying on the soft couch with bulging jade cheeks, in a funny way. He rubbed the silver fox's little head and raised the corners of his lips, "This is not the time when you said that I am leisurely.

Already?"

Turning over, Shangguan Qi did not answer. But after a while, he still spoke: "I just keep teasing it because I like it. We have just met, and everything is new. How can you say that I am despondent with playing with things." That voice said

, even the silver fox nestled between the two of them felt aggrieved.

"Then you can't call me a fool just because of my leisure time." He touched the silver fox with one hand and ran the long hair on his chest with the other.

That's it! Shangguan Qi sat up with a plop, pointed at his nose and said, "I was joking! How could you take it seriously!"

"I'm joking too." He responded calmly.

"Nonsense! How can you be joking with such a serious expression?" He puffed up his cheeks, his eyes were filled with anger and grievance, and his watery appearance was somewhat similar to the silver fox just now.

He grabbed the catkin she stretched out with one hand, and then closed the distance between the two. He looked into her eyes with sparks of anger and lowered his voice, "That's because I don't want to hear any of my dissatisfaction from your mouth."

OK. I can say whatever others say, but you can't. If you say I'm a fool, I'll be angry. So I want to let you taste the feeling of being misunderstood and let you understand my heartache."

Shangguan Qi was stunned, the anger in her eyes gradually melted away, and she lowered her eyes slightly as she looked at Xuanyuan Yeya who was staring at her closely. She bit her lip and couldn't help but complain: "You said you were joking,

You admit it yourself that you are angry."

Xuanyuan Yeya didn't say anything, he just held her little hand and lowered his eyes to look at the ribbon wrapped around her head. Silence fell between the two of them. The silver fox yawned, stood up and jumped off the couch, crooked

He tilted his head and looked at the two people sitting silently opposite each other on the soft couch before lying on the ground.

The night outside the house has completely soaked up the entire night sky. The silver moon is hanging, the breeze is blowing, and the flowers in the garden have turned into quiet elves, closing their petals and hiding in the night. The red candles in the house have also been burning.

Halfway through, the red candle oil dripped down the candle body and onto the golden candle holder below. Shangguan Qi looked at the shadow on the ground, a complicated look flashed in his eyes.

If she didn't understand why at the beginning, then she completely understood it now. The emperor in front of her must have been interested in her. And this thought was a lifelong love.

Although she also has the love dream of "winning one person's heart and staying together forever", if the partner is an emperor, then she would rather grow up alone. The love of an emperor is like a dreamy soap bubble, beautiful but fragile.

.She can't afford to play, and she doesn't want to play. So she must strangle this relationship in the cradle.

"It's getting late at night. You should go back and rest. You have to get up early for morning service tomorrow." I wanted to pull my hand away, but couldn't. I gritted my teeth and increased my strength, but was pulled in forcefully.

The candlelight flickered in his arms, and Shangguan Qi felt a dark shadow flash in front of his eyes, and then the faint scent of dragon sandalwood was entangled between his nose.

"I'm not leaving, I'll rest here with you from now on." He hugged her waist hard, feeling panicked because of her escape. The silver fox under the soft couch had already fallen asleep when the two of them were silent, and now they are like this,

I could only hear the slight twitching of its ears.

"Okay, I'll have the bed made." She stretched out her hand to push him away, but the restraint around her waist did not weaken at all. Just as she was about to speak, a deep voice came from her ears.

"Are you still avoiding me? Qi'er?"

That voice was so soft and affectionate. But Shangguan Qi could hear a trace of sadness in it, like a little abandoned animal, whimpering the grievances and sorrows in his heart.

"Hide from you? What are you hiding from? It's getting late, it's time to rest." He shouted softly, but the next moment he was pressed under him and fell on the soft couch. The candlelight on the table twisted due to the sudden strong wind.

There were enchanting flames, leaving blurry black shadows on the wall. Shangguan Qi's eyes widened and she looked at Xuanyuan Yeya who was pressing on her with a look of shock.

"You are avoiding now." Ying Miao met her slightly evasive eyes and spoke expressionlessly. Although her tone was low, it was filled with profound tenderness, "Qi'er, you are a smart person. You should know,

What exactly do I feel about you?"

Shangguan Qi didn't speak, but Xuanyuan Yeya started talking to himself: "I didn't know what I felt towards you at the beginning. If it was hatred at the beginning, then interest in you, and then I gradually developed feelings for you.

Possessiveness and protectiveness. Although I once understood it as the love between a monarch and his subjects or the gift of a friend, when I saw you and Nanyin Yuluo walking side by side with a smile, I suddenly understood how I felt about you.

What exactly is it.”[

The moist and warm breath sprayed on her face, causing bursts of itching, and her cheeks were inevitably stained with a layer of pink. Xuanyuan Yeya picked up a strand of silk she had scattered on the couch and put it on the tip of her nose.

Sniff it, then wrap it around your slender fingers.

"Qi'er, you know. I have only experienced heartache twice since I can remember. Once, my mother-in-law was forced to death by those jealous women and hung from the beam of the dormitory. I hugged her

He cried for a day and a night with his mother's body, until his throat could no longer make a sound, and then he fainted. The second time was that day in the Imperial Garden. You and Nanyin Yuluo walked side by side, laughing and having fun. You were obviously so happy.

But he became cautious after seeing me. Although I pretended to be calm and indifferent, only I understand how much pain I suppressed before I could squeeze out a relaxed smile for you. I originally thought that after my mother died,

I will never feel pain again in this life, because there is no one worth cherishing. Even when we got married, when Yuyi appeared in front of me in red and said that the relationship between you and me is over, I didn’t feel so painful.

Yes. But that day when I saw you laughing and walking from under the flower tree, I realized that everything about me was so wrong." As he spoke, Xuanyuan Yeya put his head on Shangguan Qi's chest, covering his head with blood.
