Quick Wear: After I captured the hero, I ran away with the ball

The woman smiled and gently stroked the strings, saying softly, "That's good. When I practice better, I can play it for Your Majesty."

When He Shu heard Li Ji's name from the woman's mouth, he felt that his good mood for the day was ruined.

It seems we have to hurry up and let Li Ji die sooner.

Chi Yue had no idea that her words had caused Li Ji to die several months earlier, but even if she knew, she wouldn't care. Anyway, even if He Shu didn't do it, she would have done it.

"Your Highness, it's getting late. I still have to go take care of the Emperor, so I'll take my leave now."

After she finished speaking, she bowed and, without even noticing He Shu's gloomy face, turned around and left.

In order to build up his own character, Chi Yue went straight to Li Ji as soon as he left. Li Ji was seriously injured and stayed in Xingyue Palace for the time being.

As soon as she reached the door, she saw the chief eunuch standing at the door, pacing back and forth. When he saw her, he quickly came up to her and said, "My Lady Imperial Concubine."

"I came to see His Majesty." As she spoke, she stretched her neck anxiously to take a look inside the room. Even though the door was closed, the sounds from inside the room could still be faintly heard.

"Lu Zhaorong hasn't left yet?" Chi Yue frowned, seeming a little unhappy, but didn't say anything.

The chief eunuch was really sweating. If it were in the past, when His Majesty favored Lu Zhaorong alone, he could still think of a way to stop the imperial concubine.

But His Majesty's attitude towards the two of them has changed recently. He even came to find the Imperial Concubine right after the morning court today, completely forgetting about Lu Zhaorong. He didn't know whether to stop him or not.

"After the queen left, the queen Zhaorong came and stayed inside to serve Your Majesty."

"It doesn't sound like it's as simple as serving. Eunuch, are you trying to stop me? Is there something shameful going on?" She said, looking directly at the eunuch.

The head eunuch felt that he was about to be pierced by her eyes, so he simply turned sideways and said: "Your Majesty, go and see for yourself and you will know. His Majesty is angry now, so Your Majesty should try to persuade him."

Chi Yue glanced at him and found him to be a sensible man, much more sensible than Li Ji.

With Tao Zhu's help, she pushed open the door. Li Ji struggled to get up from the bed at some point and looked at Lu Qingfeng angrily.

Seeing her expression change, Lu Qingfeng looked at Li Ji stubbornly: "Your Majesty, you once promised me..."

Seeing that she was about to tell him what happened in the past, Li Ji quickly scolded her: "Shut up!"

Lu Qingfeng was frightened by his ferocious look. Chi Yue hurried forward to support Li Ji and patted him on the back gently: "Your Majesty, don't be angry. Talk slowly if you have anything to say."

Then he looked at Lu Qingfeng in reproach and said sternly: "Lu Zhaorong, don't you know that His Majesty needs to rest now? You have no respect for the law and are deceiving the emperor. Considering that this is your first pregnancy, I will confine you to house arrest for three months and make you copy the palace rules twenty times."

Lu Qingfeng was still somewhat dissatisfied, but when she saw Li Ji's cold eyes, she regained her consciousness at once. If she really angered His Majesty, not only would she lose her current honor and favor, but she would even suffer a fate worse than death.

Li Ji was a man who wanted her to live if he loved her and wanted her to die if he hated her. Now he no longer loved her, and the only one she could rely on was the child in her belly.

After figuring this out, Lu Qingfeng knelt down reluctantly: "Your Majesty obeys your command."

Chi Yue gave a look and Tao Zhu took the person out.

She and Li Ji were the only ones left in the room. Chi Yue suddenly lost her temper, and her hand that was holding Li Ji was still shaking uncontrollably.

Li Ji held her hand and asked worriedly, "What happened?"

Before Chi Yue could open her mouth, tears started to fall. She quickly took a handkerchief to wipe them, but she didn't want to rub her eyes until they got redder.

She sobbed and said, "This is my first time punishing someone, I am a little scared."

"What are you afraid of?"

Chi Yue glanced at him secretly and said, "I'm afraid that Your Majesty will think that I'm a bad woman and then he won't like me anymore."

Li Ji's heart was touched. She was probably the only innocent person in the harem, but the person he was guarding against was the one who loved him the most.

"Silly boy, it's good that you can learn to protect yourself. If someone bullies you again in the future, don't let him go. If you can't beat him, tell me and I will help you teach him a lesson."

He saw the woman in front of him stop crying, looking at him with watery eyes, tears still on her eyelashes: "Really? This is what your majesty taught me. If I really did this, your majesty, please don't hate me."

Li Ji smiled slightly at her innocent look, and even the wounds on his body didn't hurt so much anymore. He said lovingly, "Seriously."

After gaining a good impression in front of Li Ji, Chi Yue returned to her bedroom. She glanced calmly at the two palace maids behind her, one of whom was He Shu's woman, and the other was Li Ji's woman.

"Taozhu, you go out first. Bixiao is enough here." Chi Yue said after taking off her hairpin.

Tao Zhu obviously couldn't believe it: "My Lady——"

Chi Yue was a little upset and put the hairpin on the dressing table: "Taozhu, don't you listen to me?"

Even though Tao Zhu was dissatisfied, she had to stand up and said, "Yes, I will take my leave."

Before leaving, she did not forget to glare at Bixiao fiercely, but Bixiao kept a cold face and did not even glance at her.

"Bixiao, the Queen said she would give you to me, are you dissatisfied?"

"Return to the queen, no."

At some point, she had walked behind Chi Yue and helped her take off the pearls and jade on her head and wipe off her heavy makeup.

"Oh? You suddenly changed from a shadow guard of the He family to a maid of the harem. It's normal for you to feel unbalanced. And I think even if you are a shadow guard, your status is not low."

Bixiao's face was finally touched: "How did the queen know?"

"You admit it?" Chi Yue looked at herself in the mirror, who looked like a lotus in clear water, and felt very happy.

"Yes, I was originally the leader of the Shadow Guards - Shadow Summoner."

"Shadow Blade, this name is interesting. It is the sharpest knife among the Shadow Guards." Chi Yue really didn't expect that He Shu would be so generous that he even gave it to the leader of the Shadow Guards.

"Your Majesty, you haven't answered my question yet, how did you guess my identity?" Bixiao was particularly persistent about this question.

"It's simple. There are petals of the Drunken Hibiscus on the soles of your shoes. This Drunken Hibiscus is only found here, and in my bedroom. Apart from the elusive He family shadow guards, it is hard for me to imagine that a maid could quietly enter my bedroom, and even go to such a secret corner."

"Since the Queen has given me to you, I will belong to you from now on."

"Even if it's the Queen's words, you won't listen?"
