Nie Yan's finger trembled as he slowly put down the teacup in his hand. The corner of his lips curled up in a smile as he placed his slender fingers on the face of the fox mask. The mask then began to slowly move away.
His originally cold face had a smile that was not a smile. His eyes were deep and bottomless, but they were filled with warmth. His nose was tall and straight, and his lips were thin. His sword-like eyebrows flew obliquely into the strands of black hair at his temples.
With such a perfect silhouette, who else could it be other than Yan Mo Chen, who Qiao Qiao was still yearning for!
Joe's lips were still thin, but she had guessed correctly.
The Art of Immolation was Yan Mo Chen!
The leader of the Qing Jue Palace was the Ice Mountain Lord who wielded great power in Qiao Guo.
"This King has really underestimated you." No, it should be called Yan Mo Chen chuckled, and his eyes were filled with praise as he looked at Qiao Qiao.
"But what I have never understood is, why does Uncle Huang always want to be by my side with the Dantian status?" Qiao Qiao raised her eyebrows. Although she had long since guessed this ending, she still couldn't help but feel shocked when she saw the familiar handsome face under the mysterious mask.
If he had told her that he only wanted to find out Qiao Qiao's true identity at the beginning, and slowly used Qiao Qiao's continued wisdom to deal with the Demon Palace behind Prime Minister Luo, but in the end, he could not help but hand over his sincerity to her. He was unwilling to become her royal uncle, unwilling to become her real self, even if he could only live under a mask, would she believe him?
"If you want to know, answer a question for me." Yan Mo Chen no longer called me or my original body. In front of Qiao Qiao, he only wanted to be the truest of himself, "If all of this is a coincidence, then I'm afraid you still have your final trump card."
Qiao Qiao still smiled slowly. Indeed, he understood her. If Yan Mo Chen did not admit that he was the Death God, then of course she had her final trump card. It was a card that would allow her to turn the tables easily.
"My final trump card is your taste." Her nose sniffed and her lips opened slightly, "I remember that when the Qi deviation occurred in the Qing Jue Palace, the hug was very rough, but I was very familiar with the smell of your body. It was you who tried to restrict me, and when I reached your body, the two flavors were exactly the same. If it wasn't for the same person, why would the hug feel the same?" Qiao Qiao's still pretty face slightly lifted up and faced Yan Mo Chen's enlarged handsome face. Their eyes met, and time stood still.
Suddenly, he saw Yan Mo Chen's body tilt slightly, his cool and thin lips pressing onto Qiao Qiao's lips, gently moving like a dragonfly touching the water.
Qiao Qiao's eyes were still wide open. She would never have thought that Yan Mo Chen would actually kiss her. In an instant, happiness appeared on her face. She did not avoid him, but instead closed her eyes and replied with a hint of green in her voice.
Yan Mo Chen's body seemed to stiffen as he received Qiao Qiao's response. He lifted one of his hands and placed it on the back of Qiao Qiao's head. With the other hand, he pulled Qiao Qiao into his embrace.
"Your Majesty, your servant …" Qingwu barged in from outside. Seeing the two people in the hall who were so ambiguous, she panicked for a moment. Her legs were like lead as she stood still on the spot with her mouth wide open, but she was unable to move.
The two of them had been interrupted by Qingwu. Yan Mo Chen immediately let go of Qiao Qiao's waist, and the two of them panted heavily.
Qiao still avoided Yan Mo Chen's burning gaze. He lowered his head, and his charming face became even redder.
"Slave …" This servant will take her leave. " Before Qingwu could clearly see the face of the man beside the emperor, she felt a cold light pass by and couldn't help but shiver. She didn't wait for Qiao Qiao to look over and hurriedly retreated. Before she left, she didn't forget to tightly shut the main hall door.
Yan Mo Chen looked at the woman in front of him and could not help but feel a tinge of regret. When Qiao Qiao was still slowly approaching, he could not help but kiss her.
"I …" Yan Mo Chen stuttered. After all, he had never allowed a woman to get close to him in his entire life, let alone such an ambiguous action. He could not help but feel a little awkward right now.
"I'm leaving. Three days later, I …" I came to the palace to look for you. " Yan Mo Chen's handsome face, which had been frozen for ten thousand years, suddenly turned red. Without waiting for Qiao Qiao to speak, he quickly walked out.
But the moment he turned around, his face was filled with endless satisfaction and joy.
The sweet, soft taste of those lips was wonderful.
Qiao Qiao continued to stare blankly at Yan Mo Chen's back as he left, he pouted his mouth angrily. This fellow kissed her and then ran away, he didn't want to be responsible?!
Qingwu stood at the doorway of the Heartbreak Palace as a white figure walked out with a face full of warmth. She couldn't help but open her mouth once again and rub her eyes. As she looked in disbelief, that person … The Regent!
But hadn't the Regent just left the palace? How could it appear within the Heartbreak Palace? Didn't the Emperor say that assassins would appear within the palace? How could it be the Regent? Furthermore, why would the Regent, who usually wore only black clothes, stroll around in his dazzling moon-white robe? That … Qingwu widened her eyes in fear. Could it be that the person who met the emperor in the Heartbreak Palace was … The Regent!
It was too late for her to lightly dance about her random thoughts, so she heard a light call from inside the hall. She restrained the surprise and disbelief in her eyes, and walked into the Hall of Heartrest. Just now, she didn't listen to any orders and charged into the inner hall without knowing how the emperor would punish her!
The corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitch. This little girl also knew that he had committed a huge mistake and didn't listen to his instructions to barge in. Today, he had to teach her a lesson, if she was always this reckless in the future, she would suffer a lot sooner or later. As he thought about this, Qiao Qiao's face intentionally became cold. He extended his hand to pick up the teacup and sipped on it.
Qingwu lowered her head and knelt in front of her highness. The hall was so quiet that she didn't dare to raise her head and look at the emperor, much less lightly apologize.
Qiao Qiao still drank 3 cups of tea without saying a word. In the entire hall, other than the sound of pouring tea, there was only the sound of her and Qingwu's breathing.
"Do you know that you forced her to do so?" When they had their fourth cup of tea, Joe finally opened his mouth.
"Reporting to the Emperor, this servant shouldn't have barged into the hall without permission." Qingwu bit her lips. She had served by the emperor's side for many days and had never seen such a peaceful emperor. It seemed that the emperor was truly angry today.
"Hmm, what else?" Joe still frowned.
Qingwu slightly raised her head. Could it be that the emperor was furious because she broke the emperor's secret meeting with the regent? She shivered, not daring to speak.
"You didn't listen to my orders. I said that capturing the assassin was our secret signal to break into the inner palace, but you barged in without even hearing my order. Even if you have a big problem, you can't not follow my orders!" If this was a battlefield, if you disobeyed the orders of the general and went up to kill the enemy, even if you can fight one against a hundred, even if you win completely, you will still be punished by the law when you come back, do you understand? " He slowly stood up and walked in front of Qingwu, saying each word with a pause, "Moreover, you're the only female official by my side, and your words and actions represent me. If even you dare to look down on my orders, then how can I intimidate the world?"
"Yes, this servant knows her wrongs. May the emperor punish her." Qingwu immediately bent over and kowtowed, fiercely kowtowing her head, she knew that this matter was indeed her fault.
"Hold it!" Qiao Qiao still held the boiling hot teapot in front of him and gave it to Qingwu as he spoke with a cold voice.
Qingwu raised her head and without hesitation, she took the teapot from Qiao Qiao's hands and held it in her palms. The scorching heat made her fingers turn red and a sharp pain assaulted her. She didn't utter a sound as she remained kneeling on the ground.
Qiao Qiao still looked at Qingwu who was not frowning and could not help but feel some pity in her heart. However, her expression did not change and it was only a quarter of an hour later that she took the teapot from Qingwu's hands and placed it on the table.
Qingwu had always practiced diligently and diligently, her originally pair of white hands were already full of calluses. With such heat, her palms became even redder, making her appear even more rough.
"Do you remember?" Joe asked, still raising his eyebrows.
"Reporting to the emperor, this servant shall obey his majesty's teachings today." Qingwu lowered her arm and said with a resolute expression.
"You may leave." Qiao Qiao waved his hand and said to Qingwu.
"Your majesty!" Qingwu blankly raised her head. She wasn't afraid of punishment, she wasn't afraid of punishment. She was only afraid that the Emperor wouldn't keep her by his side in the future.
"Since your fingers were burned, there's no need for you to attend to them today. You should go back and rest first. Imperial Physician Baili is already waiting in your courtyard. Tomorrow, your fingers will be healed." Qiao Qiao looked at Qingwu's red hands and could not bear to see it at all.
"Thank you, your majesty!" Qingwu fiercely kowtowed. She knew that the emperor didn't intend to chase her away. Today, he wanted her to remember his mistake. If the emperor really wanted to punish her, he wouldn't have made Imperial Physician Baili wait.
"Go down." Qiao Qiao still waved her hand and said.
"This servant will take his leave." Qingwu stood up and threw a grateful glance at Qiao Yifeng before turning around and leaving.
"Sir has been watching for so long, are you still not prepared to show yourself?" Qiao Qiao was still seated within the Heartrest Palace. His lips slowly curled up and he lightly placed the teacup in his hand. He focused his attention on a certain direction within the Heartrest Palace.
