Queen's favorite

To be honest, Qi Changle didn't react at first.After all, she never thought that things would go so far.

Qi Changle's initial thought was: If she, from the perspective of an outsider, is aloof, using a seemingly worried but cold tone to admonish the female gentleman not to skip meals, she will touch the opposite scale of the other party, and it will be fine if she is not careful. It is a very stupid choice to make a mistake.

Therefore, she chose to describe the feeling of starvation she had experienced in such a detailed way, which aroused the attention and curiosity of the female gentleman, and then explained to her that she also had the experience of being hungry, so that she changed from an outsider to a woman with a woman. Jun has a companion who has had the same experience.

Such a change can make the female gentleman subtly develop a sense of identification with her, and this sense of identification will also allow Qi Changle to avoid facing the female monarch's anger after being taught a subtle lesson.

Obviously, that was the plan.At first, it went well.

But now why, the situation suddenly changed?

Their conversation seems to have deviated from the direction.

But Qi Changle didn't stay in a daze for too long, but after being dazed with initial doubts, she quickly returned to normal.

Zhong Liyu didn't ask casually.Her black eyes looked at Qi Changle, some kind of emotional backlog, like dark clouds.Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the female gentleman has fallen in love with Qi Changle's "unintentional words" just now.

Her fingertips tapped the tabletop repeatedly, like a sign of a storm coming.

Qi Changle glanced at the movement of her fingers, and couldn't help thinking in his heart, why did the lady ask about this matter?Could it be... Do you want to seek justice for her?

Thinking of this, an inexplicable emotion flashed across Qi Changle's heart.

However, just before she was about to answer, she thought of another thing.

Qi Changle's heart suddenly sank.

— not very good.

At that moment, Qi Changle almost thought of many things, some not, good and bad.Her face turned pale, but she didn't dare to reveal anything wrong.

In the end, Qi Changle could only force himself to calm down.After all, now is not the time for deep thinking, she has to get through the hurdle in front of her, and then slowly figure it out.

Originally, Qi Changle wanted to make a fool of herself, but because of something she had just thought of suddenly, Qi Changle had to give up this plan.

She tried her best to keep her smile unchanged, and then replied: "Actually, it's not a big deal, it's just a child. After all, you can't eat too much, so the servants watched and didn't dare to serve food to concubines. But the concubines are young I'm greedy when I eat, and I'm hungry before the meal, so..."

She said a half-truth.

Qi Changle was indeed often hungry when he was a child, not because the servants were afraid that the children would be greedy and did not dare to give them more, but because they were only given two meals a day in the courtyard, and if there was too much, they would be gone.

After all, they are not favored, and they have nowhere to redress their grievances if their things are withheld.

So Qi Changle was often hungry when he was young.

Mother Xu intended to share her share of food with her, but children would be hungry, let alone adults?Gradually, Qi Changle stopped revealing his hunger in front of his mother, but just endured it secretly.

This kind of thing didn't happen anymore until she gained face in front of the old lady.

Hearing Qi Changle's answer, the lady raised her eyebrows slightly, and snorted softly, as if she agreed.

Qi Changle breathed a sigh of relief.No matter what, this hurdle has been passed now, and even if the female monarch really sent someone to investigate in the future, Qi Si would not dare to give other answers in order to survive.

Qi Changle dragged the topic back: "Your Majesty, do you want to continue eating?"

Zhong Liyu closed his eyes, a little impatient.

"Don't eat." She replied like this, then raised her eyes to glance at Qi Changle, with a smile on her face, her attitude was a little kind. "Don't worry about me, just keep eating."

After all, she came here this time only to see people, not to eat.

Qi Changle said: "But if Your Majesty is hungry, how can concubines eat?"

She pursed her lips slightly, with a stubborn but serious expression.The eyes are bright, with sincerity.

The reason why Zhong Liyu was not in the mood to eat was because of his headache.

It is incomprehensible to someone who has not been troubled by such pain.

When a person suffers from headaches all the time, let alone eating, even if he is awake, every minute and every second is a painful torture.

And tonight, she had a particularly severe headache.So even with it, there is no good mood.

The reason why Zhongliyu can sit here quietly at this moment is only because of Qi Changle who is opposite.If it was normal, she would have done some...bad things a long time ago.

A large part of the female monarch's bad reputation is due to headaches.

Her headache was unbearable, and her heart was also filled with unhappiness.

Since she herself is already so unhappy, how can she want to see others happy?

Zhong Liyu sat quietly on the upper seat, but his eyes were deep, and all he thought about was blood.

It was as if hearing the painful cries of others could soothe the pain in her heart.

But not now.

Although she is not afraid to show this side of herself to others, and she also enjoys such things, but at least for now...she doesn't want to spoil this little peach blossom.

Thinking of this, Zhong Liyu covered the emotions in his eyes, and then said: "Come here." She tilted her head.

"Rub your head for me."

Zhong Liyu's order was just casual, although the other party's massage skills made her headache less serious at the first time, but thinking about it afterwards, it might be a great comfort to her heart.

Zhong Liyu knew about her headaches. After all, the imperial physician had been seeing her for several years and she was not cured. There were not a few people who gave her acupuncture and massage on weekdays, and none of them were effective.

But last time, it must have been a coincidence.

But now... let's find something for the other party to do.

Otherwise, Zhong Liyu was afraid that sooner or later she would not be able to suppress the tyrannical emotions in her heart, and would do something bad to this peach blossom that had never experienced wind and rain.

It was also to restrain herself.

Upon hearing this, Qi Changle immediately stood up.

Because I was eating just now, although I didn't get any dirt, but after all I wanted to touch the female monarch, so Qi Changle cleaned his hands first, wiped them clean, and then walked over.

She looked down at Zhong Liyu who was sitting there, glanced at his fair skin hidden under the black collar, and then turned her eyes away.

Qi Changle put his fingertips on Zhongliyu's forehead, and then gently rubbed it.

Feeling the force from his forehead, Zhong Liyu closed his eyes and sat there quietly, vaguely feeling that the pain in his head had really been relieved a lot.

It's not an illusion, or something else.

The tip of her nose smelled a light but lingering fragrance, with warmth.

The cruel thoughts in my heart seemed to be calmed unconsciously.

After a long time, Zhong Liyu opened his eyes.

"Okay," she said.

So Qi Changle let go of his fingertips.

Because she kept one movement for a long time, her fingers were already a little stiff and painful.

But that's okay, after all, it's all worth it.

Through the observation just now, Qi Changle confirmed one thing.

The first is that the lady is indeed suffering from severe headaches, and the second... is that her massage seems to be able to relieve it.

That's a nice thing to do, isn't it.

Before Qi Changle withdrew his hand, Zhongli Yuhu turned his head sideways, brushed the tip of his nose past her wrist, and asked, "What flower dew did you use just now? Or did you wear a sachet?"

Hearing the female gentleman's question, Qi Changle was slightly surprised: "Return to Your Majesty, no."

Could it be that she has some kind of smell on her body?

But it shouldn't...

Qi Changle doesn't like spices, so her palace has never lit them, and she doesn't use aromatherapy to dry clothes, so there should be no other smells.

Zhong Liyu suddenly reached out and grabbed Qi Changle's wrist.

Yingying's slender wrist was held in her palm, like white jade.

Qi Changle curled his fingertips slightly, and said softly: "Your Majesty...?"

Because of the relieved headache, Zhong Liyu was in a good mood.She smiled, her eyelashes were dark and drooping thickly, covering the emotions in her eyes.

She lowered her head and approached the wrist that she was holding, then sniffed lightly, and said with a smile: "It's not the spice flower water, but that's your body fragrance?"

When Zhong Liyu spoke, his breath sprayed on the inside of Qi Changle's wrist, bringing a light itchy feeling.

Qi Changle's face flushed slightly, his eyelashes trembled slightly, and he didn't dare to look directly at the other party.

"..."

Zhong Liyu looked at her expression and found it a little funny, so she let go of Qi Changle's wrist, and reached out to touch her chin, making her look up at him.

The face like a peach blossom was lifted up, the brows and eyes were affectionate and shy, like the color dyed by the peach petals, gentle but colorful.

Zhong Liyu asked again, "Why didn't you answer?"

Qi Changle took the female monarch's expression into his eyes carefully, but did not move extraneously.

She knew that the intimacy between two people must not be initiated by her, at least not now.

She had to wait for the female monarch to take the initiative to get close to her before she could take that step.

Otherwise... you have to be careful, you may touch something that the queen doesn't like.

So at this moment, Qi Changle's face was just blushing, his eyelashes were like the wings of a butterfly, trembling slightly, he was obviously extremely ashamed, but he still stood in front of Zhongliyu, presenting himself to her, without even a single evasion.

The gentle and affectionate beauty bit her lower lip and said softly, "...No, it's not deodorant."

"Concubine, I have never smelled this on myself."

She replied, but it seemed to be duplicity.

Zhongli Yu's eyes darkened, at that moment, she only felt that the tip of her heart was scratched by something, indescribably... throbbing.

So Zhong Liyu got up directly, and then approached Qi Changle.

After seeing the other party's meek movement of being slightly startled but not backing away, she felt joy in her heart.

Then, Zhong Liyu stretched out his hand to pinch the back of Qi Changle's neck, brought her into his arms, and approached her neck and ears with a light smile.

The slightly cool breath spread over the skin, causing layers of trembling.

This is the closest time between Qi Changle and Nujun.

The skin under the breath was soon stained with a layer of crimson.

"His Majesty……"
