Chapter 379 Very Responsible
Chapter 379 Very Responsible
Emperor Yongjia said "hmm" lightly, lowered his head and kissed her on the forehead, and said, "Yes. You are very responsible."
When he said this, his voice was soft and sure, and when he bent down to kiss her, it was as if he was holding a treasure.
Every time, Qin Liuse was bewitched by Emperor Yongjia's inexplicable answers and her heart softened.
But fortunately, her heart was elastic. It softened for a moment and then bounced back.
"It would be good if the emperor knew," Qin Liuse said stubbornly, "The emperor is happy, but I am the one who has to suffer."
Just now in the bed, Emperor Yongjia kept forcing her to speak, saying all the nice things to her.
Seeing that Qin Liuse was not shaken at all, he continued to torment her. The bed was already in a mess.
Emperor Yongjia looked down at her, lightly scratched her cheek with his thumb, then changed direction and scratched again. Even though she was soaking in the hot spring, the moisture there remained.
Although in the water, the touch is still obvious.
Emperor Yongjia raised his lips and said, "You are suffering? I remember you enjoyed it."
Qin Liuse was about to get angry again. She didn't know if the blush on her face was caused by the hot soup or his blunt teasing, but it felt like pig liver.
She thought for a moment, bit her lip, and continued, "I am only cooperating with the emperor. The emperor knows that I am very responsible."
Qin Liuse was defending himself, and his reaction just now was partly a performance, just to cooperate with him as the emperor.
Emperor Yongjia snorted softly, and moved his hands unruly, "Since you are so loyal and selfless for me, why don't we... let you repay me?"
As he spoke, his lips moved down to find her snow-white flesh.
Qin Liuse froze in shock, and immediately understood in his heart that he would never be able to defeat Emperor Yongjia no matter what he did.
Because her own face was not as thick as his in this life or the next, after realizing the disparity between them in this matter, Qin Liuse immediately decided to call a truce.
She closed her eyes and said, "I am sleepy."
Unexpectedly, her extremely disrespectful words caused Emperor Yongjia to laugh out loud.
Qin Liuse was sitting in the hot soup in his arms. Although there was a gap in their hearts, their bodies were tightly pressed against each other, and she could even feel the vibration of his chest.
It was rare to hear Emperor Yongjia laugh like this. Qin Liuse's face felt burning hot, but he didn't want to bother with him any more. He just waited for Emperor Yongjia to finish laughing, and then he would continue to pretend to be dead.
Qingqing Zijin, who was tidying up the bed outside, suddenly heard Emperor Yongjia's laughter. She was stunned for a moment, stopped what she was doing, and looked towards the bathroom.
But since the emperor was smiling, there shouldn't be anything for them to worry about.
Qingqing and Zijin looked at each other, then turned around and continued to clean up the mess for their masters. When they came in just now, both of them had blushed for a while.
He put a new layer of clean mattress on the bed, replaced the quilt and pillows, and then brought the other bedding down.
-
Qin Liuse fell asleep when the cock crowed. When she woke up again, it was already past noon and the sun was already high in the sky.
Qin Liuse's stomach was growling with hunger in her sleep, but her whole body was sore and swollen that she rolled around in the quilt, unwilling to get up.
"Get up, it's time to have breakfast. If you feel sleepy, then go back to sleep." The light-colored curtains of the bed with fish playing in the background were pulled aside from the outside. Emperor Yongjia sat on the edge of the bed and reached out to pinch Qin Liuse's face.
Qin Liuse woke up immediately, but was still glaring at Emperor Yongjia, with no hint of politeness in her eyes.
Don't think that she believes in the saying "husband and wife never hold grudges overnight".
Words are spoken by people, and today she will break this rule.
Qin Liuse sat up with the quilt in her arms and glanced at the neatly dressed Emperor Yongjia beside her. She didn't know when he woke up and she didn't even know it.
No one knew why, although he also fell asleep at cockcrow, Emperor Yongjia could still wake up early without showing any signs of fatigue or sleepiness.
Qin Liuse yawned, ignoring Emperor Yongjia who was sitting next to him, and asked Qingqing who was standing outside in a relaxed tone, "What time is it now?"
"Two quarters past noon." Emperor Yongjia answered on behalf of Qingqing.
Qin Liuse glanced at him, meaning that who asked him a question? He was really being sentimental.
Hearing that it was already two quarters past noon, Qin Liuse quickly pushed the quilt aside and prepared to get up and get dressed.
This hour is really not early.
Although the Empress Dowager did not set a rule for her to pay respects to the royal palace every day, Qin Liuse would go there every day. After all, it was close and she might as well do it when she had free time.
At this time today, it is really late. The old man gets up early and goes to bed early, so he might have gotten up just after the Yin hour.
At this hour, the old man is probably preparing to have his second snack in the morning.
When Qin Liuse came to the imperial palace villa, the time he got up every day was almost the same as when he was in the palace, which was not early.
But today, it was much later than usual, so she blamed Emperor Yongjia for her displeasure and anger at being late.
Although the two of them had known each other for a long time, and even had two children, and had such an intimate behavior last night, but when she woke up this morning, Qin Liuse turned her face and didn't recognize her.
It was as if the person who acted with Emperor Yongjia last night was not himself. He simply treated Emperor Yongjia as transparent and was unwilling to speak to him first.
But Emperor Yongjia had always been very patient with her. Seeing her like this, he was not annoyed, but just smiled and said, "Put on your clothes first and have something to eat. I will go with you to pay my respects to the Imperial Grandmother."
In fact, if you look closely, it seems that Emperor Yongjia never really took the initiative to get angry with Qin Liuse.
All the previous conflicts and awkwardness with her were unilaterally provoked by Qin Liuse. It seemed that as long as she did not touch on the principles of Emperor Yongjia, Emperor Yongjia would hold her in the palm of his hand and pamper her well, and would tolerate any of her temper.
But although Qin Liuse was not so arrogant as to take advantage of his favor, she was testing his bottom line step by step.
It is not an exaggeration to say that such behavior is like touching the tiger's whiskers again and again.
After saying this, Emperor Yongjia stood up and sat back down on the blanket.
Because the ground here is hot, they don't have warm beds like those in the palace. Instead, they just follow the ancient custom and sit on the ground.
There was a low couch on the blanket, and there was a dining table and chairs in the side room outside, but Qin Liuse had been here for so long that she ate on the low couch, so Emperor Yongjia followed her.
When I get up in the morning, I eat breakfast and make tea here while watching over her.
Qingqing came over with clothes and helped Qin Liuse put them on, and then helped her rinse her mouth and wash her face.
Zijin combed her hair and tied it into a bun, then put on some hairpins and rings, and then helped her to have breakfast.
During the many days in Yuanyang Spring, Qin Liuse had been wearing a bare face and bathing in the spring every day. Her face was rosy and watery, but she disliked the color of makeup.
Qingqing Zijin waited for Qin Liuse to come over, brought breakfast and set it aside, then left on her own, leaving Emperor Yongjia alone to accompany Qin Liuse for breakfast.
When Qin Liuse left the palace, the two still didn't say a word to each other. But last night, they suddenly became closer again, but they didn't completely reconcile.
Therefore, when they sat opposite each other, there was an indescribable awkwardness between them.
But the difference is that Emperor Yongjia looked natural, while Qin Liuse pretended to be natural.
Emperor Yongjia got up at the hour of Mao and went outside to practice boxing. He had already had breakfast, so he just watched Qin Liuse eat.
Qin Liuse had never eaten a meal so uncomfortable before.
Fortunately, the breakfast was simple, lotus seed porridge with egg pancakes, and it was finished in a short while. Then she accompanied Emperor Yongjia to the Empress Dowager.
When they arrived at the Empress Dowager's room, the old lady saw that Qin Liuse looked very good, with a rosy complexion, pink and tender skin, like a bride on her wedding day. She smiled for a moment.
He held Qin Liuse's hand and kept saying, "They say that a day without seeing you feels like a long time. You have been with me for several days, which is equivalent to several years. A short absence is better than a new marriage. Look at your rosy and rosy face. I like it just the way it looks."
Qin Liuse's face turned red with anger at the Empress Dowager's ambiguous words.
The Empress Dowager might have thought that she had reconciled with Emperor Yongjia.
But what she said really happened last night...
For a moment, Qin Liuse lowered her eyes, feeling shy and embarrassed.
It’s not that he was afraid of replying, but he was afraid of losing face in front of Emperor Yongjia if he replied.
Emperor Yongjia liked to see her like this, so he took the initiative to come out and change the subject.
He said to the Empress Dowager, "Grandmother, have you gotten used to living here these days? If there is anything missing, I will ask someone to bring it to you."
