Chu Xuanzhi rested in Fengqi Palace for several days. Many people just thought that he couldn't accept the Queen's funeral. He even stayed in court for several days, but no one urged him.
The gate of Fengqi Palace is closed.
Jinghua wanted to come and have a look several times but was turned away. She stood in a daze at the entrance of Fengqi Palace, unwilling to leave.
Since the queen's death, she has never seen Chu Xuanzhi again.
This is not a good sign.
Little did they know that the demon queen Jiang Yunxu, who was being talked about by others, was leaning in Chu Xuanzhi's arms, eating grapes leisurely.
Chu Xuanzhi's clean and slender fingertips were carefully peeling the grape skins and stuffing the crystal clear grapes into her red lips.
"Have the rumors gone away outside?" she asked vaguely.
Chu Xuanzhi nodded.
Jiang Yunxu hummed: "It's not like I came here in vain."
His hand suddenly stopped, and he straightened her body solemnly, with a solemn expression: "There is nothing that cannot be discussed between you and me. If it happens again, I'm afraid I will be scared to death."
When he first saw her wearing a phoenix robe and a gold hairpin on her body, motionless, he almost slashed her with a knife.
Just one step away from going crazy.
Jiang Yunxu nodded guiltily: "I have no choice but to make this decision. I promise I will tell you if anything happens in the future."
Seeing her still alive and clinging to his side, Chu Xuanzhi's heart jumped back into his chest and he regained his senses.
"I've been thinking about arranging a suitable identity for you these days."
He just wanted to be with her, and was worried that she might have any intentions of running away from him. According to Jiang Yunxu's ability, if she wanted to leave, no one could stop her.
Jiang Yunxu pursed her lips: "What is the identity of Chu Linguo and the eldest princess?"
Chu Xuanzhi squinted at the other party, but couldn't resist the other party's wet eyes staring at him. He smiled helplessly: "I will send someone to collect the other party's portrait and information."
With his help, you can get twice the result with half the effort.
It was rare for the two of them to get tired of each other for a few days. On the fifth day, the civil and military officials outside couldn't stand it any longer. They came at least seven or eight times a day and asked him to go back to handle official business through the gate.
Jiang Yunxu reached out and pushed Chu Xuanzhi's chest, stretched lazily, and muttered angrily: "If you don't leave, this Fengqi Palace will be demolished."
Under her urging, Chu Xuanzhi reluctantly left.
The moment he left Fengqi Palace, Chu Xuanzhi's face instantly turned gloomy. He ordered the guards: "No one is allowed to break into Fengqi Palace without permission, let alone touch any flower or grass inside. Anyone who disobeys the order
,kill!"
"yes!"
When the civil and military officials saw that Chu Xuanzhi finally came out, they were overjoyed. They all came forward and mentioned the marriage of Chu Linguo. They walked further and further away.
Jinghua on the side couldn't say anything, so she had no choice but to leave. She went to Zhao's house and chatted with Mrs. Song: "Aunt, the emperor must have misunderstood me. I just wanted to persuade the queen. Who knew she
To be so confused."
Mrs. Song had known the news a long time ago. She pretended not to know and sighed at her: "The Emperor must be unhappy in his heart. Once this anger dissipates, he will return to normal."
"I knew that the Emperor was very fond of Empress Jiang, but I didn't expect that he was so infatuated that he didn't even care about the important affairs of the court."
Jinghua wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief aggrievedly, and said a few words choked with sobs. Mrs. Song understood clearly that she wanted her to go to Chu Xuanzhi to plead for mercy.
Mrs. Song pretended not to understand and covered her heart: "Don't be picky at this point. Now we can only wait."
The Song family promised to go to the palace to talk to the emperor in a few days. Jinghua thanked her repeatedly: "The relationship between sister and brother for decades is not inferior to that of Empress Jiang, right?"
Thinking of Jiang Yunxu's death, Jinghua thought he was unlucky, but he didn't feel guilty at all. He didn't force her to die, it was Lingyi's civil and military officials and the people who couldn't tolerate her.
