The wealthy tycoon wants to be the white moonlight of the little village girl

Qing He shook her head lightly and smiled bitterly: "Your Majesty, I don't remember! Because I had a serious illness a few years ago, I forgot everything after waking up. I only know that I came here to escape famine with my family..."

The emperor frowned after hearing this, as if thinking about something...

Jiang Yaonian suddenly said, "In addition to embroidery, Qinghe also likes painting very much! She is very knowledgeable about those famous paintings and calligraphy. Basically, she can copy them exactly after seeing them! She also embroidered a small portrait for me as a reward for my contribution in teaching her to ride a horse... When we have nothing to do, we stay in the library at home for an afternoon. She looks at those antique paintings and calligraphy, and I look at her. We don't disturb each other and cooperate very well..."

When these loving words came out, everyone was shocked. The emperor was surprised and secretly said in his heart: "I can't believe it! Jiang Yaonian, this shrewd, strong, ruthless and wealthy tycoon, is actually a wife-loving maniac... No wonder he has been married for so long and doesn't even have a concubine! I guess Qinghe doesn't allow him to take one!"

Qing He lowered her head sadly, thinking back to the past when they had been in love, and she couldn't help but feel sad...

Concubine Jia looked at Jiang Yaonian in shock. She didn't expect that he would defend the little girl in person and embarrass her!

Jiang Yaonian continued, "Qinghe has a quiet personality and doesn't like crowds or socializing. The jewelry I bought for her is usually thrown into a box, and I've rarely seen her wear it... But she would go to the upper room to chat with grandma when she had nothing to do, so the old lady likes her very much and has planned to let her take care of the household affairs after she gives birth. So we take advantage of the fact that we don't have children now and often stick together!"

Now, Concubine Jia’s face looked even uglier!

He said this to himself, implying that the little village girl was not only innocent, cute and sensible, but also that he liked her very much! He wanted to be obsessed with her!

Concubine Jia stood up with a gloomy face and said, "Your Majesty, I feel a little unwell. I will take my leave first!"

The emperor was a little surprised and asked, "Oh? Do you want to ask the imperial physician to come and take a look?"

Concubine Jia said lightly: "I am not that delicate. I will just go back and lie down for a while!" After that, she left with a cold face without even looking at Jiang Yaonian!

After a moment, Jiang Yaonian also stood up and said goodbye: "Thank you, Your Majesty and Your Majesty, for your hospitality. Qinghe and I will also take our leave!"

The emperor looked at Qinghe with some hesitation, and said thoughtfully: "Ah, this... I still have something I want to ask Qinghe for help..."

Qing He said softly, "It's not difficult. Whenever Your Majesty is free, you can summon me to the palace."

The emperor didn't expect that she would agree! He asked with some surprise, "Are you willing to help?"

Qing He smiled and said, "Your Majesty, don't you want me to give some pointers to the embroiderers in the embroidery bureau? I can just go to the palace when I have time."

The emperor was stunned for a moment, then he immediately said as if waking from a dream: "Yes! Yes! I want you to give some advice to the embroiderer!"

Qing He smiled and said, "That's easy. You can do it anytime you are free."

"Okay! It's a deal!" The emperor said nervously and excitedly, "On the fifteenth of next month, I will send someone to the Jiang family to pick you up!"

"Yes, I'll take my leave!" Qinghe and Jiang Yaonian turned around and left the Tou Shi Palace together.

After the two men left the palace, the emperor's face darkened. He frowned and ordered the eunuch, "Ask Meng Jifei to come to the imperial study. I have something to discuss with him!"

"Yes!"

……

Concubine Jia stood on the second floor of Fengxiang Tower, watching Jiang Yaonian and Qinghe disappear motionlessly, then she turned around and walked back down the stairs.

Jin Ling'er carefully supported her from the side: "My Lady, please be careful and watch your step!"

Concubine Jia suddenly stopped while walking, turned her head and stared at Jin Ling'er coldly and said, "You still have one last chance, you know that, right?"

Jin Ling'er lowered her head and whispered, "Yes, I know!"

"You should have seen it just now. This is not an easy thing to do!"

After hearing this, Jin Ling'er immediately knelt down on the ground and said, "I am willing to give it a try and serve you, Madam!"

After a long silence, Concubine Jia whispered, "As long as you remember what I told you, you should be able to gain his trust and make him like you!"

"When will this servant take action?"

"It will be soon! No later than next spring, that little village girl will disappear from this world. Then it will be your turn to take the stage!"

"Yes, I will obey your Majesty's arrangements in everything!"

……

On the way home, Qing He sat in the sedan chair and couldn't help feeling a little dazed...

She had originally planned to leave Jiang's house on the day of the winter solstice, but who knew that the emperor suddenly invited her to the palace on the 15th of the next month, so her plan might have to be postponed!

She didn't want to cause trouble for the Jiang family. If she suddenly disappeared, the eldest prince, who already hated the four major families, might take the opportunity to cause trouble...

Qinghe didn't want Jiang Yaonian to suffer this unknown disaster!

Although she could no longer love him, she didn't want to hurt him...

Just now in the palace, he had fulfilled his responsibilities as a husband. He could not help but clearly express his attitude to protect her, and also showed the love between husband and wife in front of the Emperor and Concubine Jia!

Qinghe was grateful for this, so she decided to wait until after the 15th of next month before leaving.

I just don’t know how to get through this period of time…

She can no longer live under the same roof with him. Whenever she sees him, she can't help but think of that disgusting thing. She feels unable to face him normally!

If he doesn't think of an idea, he will find out soon!

No, maybe he had begun to doubt it now, because they had not had sex for more than ten days, which was unimaginable before.

Now she would make all kinds of excuses every night, and then fall asleep with guilt in his confused eyes...

And I often cried in my dreams and asked myself why I didn’t meet him earlier...!

But after waking up, she would think sadly: Even if we had met at the beginning, it might not have changed anything! After all, he was so much older than her, it was impossible for him to like her when she was still a little girl!

On the contrary, Jia Fei and he were of the same age and appearance! Moreover, she was born with fair skin, beautiful appearance, and a graceful and elegant lady's temperament. She and the handsome and steady Jiang Yaonian were a perfect match!

Whenever Qing He thought of these things, she couldn't help but feel like crying...

Jiang Yaonian, who was standing by, noticed her abnormality and asked her with great concern, "Qinghe, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"

Qing He looked at him with tears in her eyes, unable to say anything, she just shed tears silently with sadness and grievance...

Jiang Yaonian sighed silently, then reached out and held her in his arms, and asked softly, "You have been too fragile recently. Are you missing your brother again?"

Qing He gently pushed him away and said calmly, "Nothing, I'm just a little upset... Can you please not let the guards follow me next time I go out?"

Jiang Yaonian was surprised and asked, "Why? If you go out alone, what if you run into a bad guy?"
