I Will Also Work Hard With You. (1)

After all, Weimo was getting old, and after staying outside under the scorching sun for a short time, he became a little fatigued.

Chu Ning couldn’t bear to disturb it any longer, so she asked the guards to take it back to rest, and after sitting in the gazebo for a while, she put on her hat again and went back.

After walking near the Anren Hall, Liu Kang hurried over with his people, bowed to her again and again, and said apologetically, “Lady—Your Highness, forgive me, this old servant didn’t arrange the people who serve Your Highness before bringing Your Highness here.” The back garden was frightened. As soon as the Emperor heard about it, he sent the old slave to greet him. Is everything okay, Your Highness?”

Just now, the decree of the Imperial Academy has been promulgated. Although the inscription ceremony has not been held, Chu Ning is already a legitimate empress, so she can no longer be called “Lady”, but changed to “Her Royal Highness”.

“I’m fine. I’m sorry to bother the supervisor. I asked them to send the things back first. Instead, the emperor was worried.” Chu Ning knew that he was talking about the accident that she had just met the prince, so she would not blame him. She only smiled and said with relief, “I happened to meet Weimo, I didn’t expect it to be so understanding.”

Liu Kang thought about the burly body of the gray wolf and couldn’t help wiping the sweat from the sun shining on his forehead, thinking that it doesn’t treat everyone like this.

Fortunately, everything was fine for Chu Ning. After seeing it for himself, he was relieved, and after a few words of comfort, he summoned a palanquin to take her back, then turned around and left, and returned to Xiao Kezhi, who was in the front court.

Not long after the palanquin walked out, it came to the vicinity of the Baifu Hall. Qi Chenxiang just exited the hall and saw Chu Ning sitting on the palanquin wearing a hat. Her face changed again and again, as if feeling a little bit emotional, and then a little unwilling and doubtful, she finally suppressed all the chaotic emotions in her heart, then bowed according to the rules.

She could understand current affairs, understand the current situation of the Qi family, and also understand the difference in status, so she would never act rudely.

Chu Ning nodded to her with a smile, so that she didn’t need to be too polite, and asked casually, “Sixth Lady just visited the Empress Dowager and will be going home soon?”

Qi Chenxiang nodded, “Yes, everything is well with the Empress Dowager, and the Sixth Lady is heading home.”

The two of them were no more than nodding acquaintances, so after a few words, they wanted to leave.

Before leaving, Qi Chenxiang pondered for a moment, and then asked in a low voice, “Your Highness entered the Taiji Palace, but did you do so willingly?”

The smile on Chu Ning’s face faded a bit, and his eyes were more deliberate and scrutinized.

She didn’t know much about Sixth Lady Qi’s personality, and the only few times she got close to him left only a weak impression, but the last time, and even this time, brought new changes to her feelings.

This youngest lady in the Qi family’s generation seemed to be a little different from the generous, decent, and modest lady that she usually showed. In her heart, there was also confusion and rebellion, and she also longed for more obedience. own mind.

“Yes, I was willing.” Chu Ning withdrew her scrutiny gaze, nodded with a smile, and answered gently but firmly.

“But the Emperor… I’m afraid he is not a long-term lover…”

“For me, the Holy Majesty is the best home.” Chu Ning couldn’t explain that everything in the past few months was an illusion deliberately created by Xiao Kezhi, so she had to defend him tactfully, “Sixth Lady, you are young now. It is the best time to have the opportunity to live a life that will make your future more comfortable. Just remember, don’t be confused by appearances, let alone jump to conclusions. ”

Qi Chenxiang didn’t speak, but suddenly thought of many things in her heart. There were aunts, fathers, mothers, even Zhao Yue, all kinds of noble girls in Changan city.

She looked at Chu Ning with complicated eyes and didn’t know what to think for a moment, so she bowed silently, stepped aside, and watched the palanquin go back on the road and leave.

…

The servants did not send Chu Ning elsewhere, but went to Ganlu Hall again. The things sent back from the Guizhen Temple were sorted out by the maids and put on the cabinets and desks in the sleeping hall.

Chu Ning was a little surprised, and asked, “Why put it here instead of my own bedroom?”

The Ganlu Hall has always been the Emperor’s bedroom, and the rest of the people, whether it’s the empress or ordinary concubines, had their own residences.

When she was the crown princess in the East Palace, she and Xiao Yu both lived in their own bedroom.

The maids looked at each other and said, “The Holy Majesty ordered that all Your Highness’s belongings should be sent to the Ganlu Hall. As for Your Highness’s bedroom, the Holy Majesty has not ordered it.”

Chu Ning was stunned for a moment and guessed what Xiao Kezhi meant, probably to let her live in the Ganlu Hall first, so she didn’t say any more, and waved for them to go off on their own.

In the afternoon, she had her meal, took a rest in the inner room, and wrote another letter. Not long after, when the evening was approaching, the maid went out to report, “Your Highness, His Holy Majesty has returned.”

It was before dusk at this time, and Xiao Kezhi rushed back.

Chu Ning hastily put down the things in her hands, got up, and went out to meet him. She walked back in on his arm, intending to change his clothes himself. While smiling, she said, “Your Majesty has come back so early!”

Xiao Kezhi took her in his arms, walked to the side of the screen, stretched out his arms, and let her take off his outer clothes.

The weather was hot, and he had been wearing the heavy emperor’s robes all the time. Even though there was ice everywhere and the servant raised a fan, the robes were still stuffy. Now that he took off the layers, he felt relaxed.

He couldn’t help but slightly bend his knees, hug her in his arms, and lower his head to kiss her neck and ears regardless of the sweltering heat on his body.

“Thinking of you waiting for me in the Ganlu Palace, I can’t help but want to run back.” When he arrived in the bedroom, in front of her, he was not as calm and majestic as he was outside, but turned into the most ordinary man, “You living here makes me feel like a newlywed.”

Chu Ning was afraid of the heat, so she didn’t wear many robes. After being hugged by him like this, the thin shirt hanging on her shoulders slipped off a little bit, revealing a piece of smooth and moist skin.

Hearing his words, she suddenly felt a little sorry.

“Because of A’Ning, Your Majesty couldn’t hold a proper wedding ceremony. Do you feel regretful?”

If it weren’t for her sensitive status and her sudden entry into the Taiji Palace at this time, as an emperor, his wedding should be organized according to the etiquette system and celebrated by the whole world, instead of becoming the subject of discussion and jokes like it is now.
