The Queen's Secret

Qi Yu didn't know how she got back to the old case room. After greeting Lin Qingxuan, she returned to the room, washed up, and then lay down on the bed.

In fact, she didn't drink much alcohol, but she felt like she was drunk, and she was in a daze all night...

Qi Yu sighed deeply, closed her eyes, and Zhao Muyan's half-smiling eyes bumped into her mind again, like a fox, hooking the corners of her eyes, charming with tenderness...

"Well…"

Qi Yu turned her body sideways, covered her head with the quilt, dispelled the strange thoughts in her head, and finally fell asleep.

dream...

There is Ling Xian, there is Wu Chen, there is Bai An...

There is also... Zhao...

When she woke up the next day, Qi Yu woke up early in the morning, but her first thought after getting up was that she was going to Zhao Muyan to go to the Zixia Palace today. As soon as she thought of this, she felt upset...

After washing up, she returned to the room, opened the wooden box containing the beads, and sat there for a long time...

In the end, she put the beads on her wrist, and then she put on the deep purple flying fish robe and went to the old case room.

Today I was a bit late, but Lin Qingxuan and Meng Gan arrived at the old case room early in the morning.

"Sister Yuxin!"

As soon as she entered the door, Qi Yuxin heard Meng Gan's energetic greeting. She was stunned and said with a smile, "Why don't you rest for a few more days?"

Qi Yu thought to himself that there should be nothing serious in the old case room for the past few days, but Meng Gan would continue to return to his post today.

"Aren't you going to the Zixia Palace today? I thought that Sister Qingxuan might be bored by herself, so I came back."

Meng Gan said with a smile, Qi Yu's heart was filled with warmth, which turned into a smile on the corner of his mouth, he didn't say anything, but Lin Qingxuan opened his mouth.

"Brat, haven't I been alone all these years? I'm still messing around when I'm injured!"

Lin Qingxuan made a gesture to hit Meng Gan, and Meng Gan followed her will and begged for mercy. Qi Yu couldn't help smiling when he saw the interesting interaction between the two.

"No no, Sister Qingxuan, I really care about you!"

Meng Gan raised a big smile, and Lin Qingxuan also laughed, always being infected by this kid's smile.

"Okay, let me arrange the work for the next few days."

Qi Yuxin suppressed his smile, and the two immediately stopped their backs, waiting for Qi Yuxin to continue, but Qi Yuxin looked at them playfully and burst out laughing.

"There's actually no work."

Just now Qi Yuxin deliberately made the two of them nervous, but unexpectedly, the two of them put away their laughing faces immediately and straightened their backs, thinking that he had some deterrent power.

"Yu Xin knows how to joke."

"Sister Yuxin startled me."

Meng Gan patted his chest, he thought Qi Yuxin didn't like his and Lin Qingxuan's fighting attitude, but now it seems that he was tricked once.

"Next, you should also have a good rest. You can look through the unsolved unsolved cases and see what you can do."

Qi Yuxin really has nothing to explain. After all, in this old case room, all he can do is wipe the table and wipe the shelves. Of course, Qi Yuxin hopes that the two of them can look through the old case to see what they can do. made.

"Ok, no problem."

Meng Gan patted his chest, and Qi Yu smiled heartily, thinking that Meng Gan's childishness was actually kind of cute.

"Yu Xin seems to be in a good mood today..."

Lin Qingxuan smiled ambiguously, Qi Yuxin had smiled several times when he came here today, not the kind of polite and alienated smile, but the kind of smile from the heart, which is very beautiful.

"Is it?"

Qi Yuxin suppressed her smile at this moment, she was clearly upset, but why... the smile always showed inadvertently?

"Huh? This string of Buddhist beads?"

Meng Gan saw that Qi Yuxin was wearing a string of Buddhist beads on his wrist, which he had never seen before. Qi Yuxin didn't like those small ornaments, so his neck and wrists were clean. It's the hair that is usually coiled up, and it's all done with a random hairpin...

"This is a relic left by my mother. I put it in the box and didn't wear it for a long time. Today, I remembered it and took it out to wear it."

Qi Yu sat down heartily, poured himself a cup of tea, and took a sip.

"Mother Qi believes in Buddhism?"

Lin Qingxuan asked curiously, Qi Yuxin would never take the initiative to talk about her family affairs, nor would she talk about her own private affairs, which made Qi Yuxin feel like she was rejecting others thousands of miles away...

Because no one can really understand Qi Yu's heart...

She will not take the initiative to say.

"Um…"

Qi Yuxin just nodded slightly in response. Fortunately, Meng Gan was there, so she continued to ask questions, such as how Qi's mother came into contact with Buddhism.

It was not easy to learn a thing or two from Qi Yuxin's mouth. Qi Yuxin had been exaggerated by Qi's mother since she was a child, and she would tell her a lot of Buddhist principles, so she was a little indifferent, but at that time, she was not as talkative as she is now. , I have a quiet temperament, which only happened after Qi Dezheng was killed ten years ago...

The three of them chatted without saying a word. At noon, Qi Yu took a look at the sky and said, "I'm going to get my luggage."

Thinking that Li'er is coming soon, Qi Yu's heart feels restless, and also has some anticipation, as if a kind of uneasy thought fell into his heart, which is the trend that he can't control...

When Qi Yuxin was packing his bags, Lier happened to come to the old case room. After the two greeted each other, Lier looked at Qi Yuxin in a flying fish robe and said with a smile, "Isn't the director of arresting Qi resting today? Will you be wearing official uniform?"

"...I'll see the Empress later, so I can't lose my etiquette."

Qi Yuxin raised that polite smile again, and Li'er was used to her polite but alienated attitude, but she couldn't help but sigh secretly...

This guy is so boring...

But why does the Empress like to tease this person?

"Well...then let's go, don't let the empress wait in a hurry."

Li'er led Qi Yuxin away, remembering that today Zhao Muyan specially asked her to choose a beautiful palace dress, and even put rouge on it, it was so beautiful that it overwhelmed the country, unexpectedly, Qi Yuxin was only wearing an official dress. Served, really...

Hmm... No, what does Zhao Muyan's well-dressed clothes have to do with Qi Yuxin?

Li'er shook her head, and after putting away the strange thoughts in her mind, she brought Qi Yuxin to the gate of the palace, where there was a sedan chair, at least four teams of guards, and Zhao Muyan's personal guards. vast.

It's just... It seems that Zhao Muyan only brought Li'er as a palace servant...

Qi Yuxin was not a gossip person, although he felt strange, but he didn't ask any more questions, until he got to the sedan chair, Li'er said: "The empress is in the sedan chair."

"My humble minister Qi Yuxin, see the empress."

Qi Yu bowed his hands to the sedan chair, and when the cold voice came through, the surrounding guards still did not look sideways, obviously well-trained.

"Um…"

A slightly lingering voice came, making Qi Yu's heart go numb, as if ants were crawling on her body...

"Come up."

This sound made Qi Yu feel his ears buzzing?Did she hear wrong?Qi Yuxin raised her head to look around, and indeed there was only one sedan chair...

"Weichen... no..."

Qi Yu was about to refuse, but Zhao Mu said: "Irresistible order, come up."

After Qi Yu heard it, her whole body started to feel cold, but her face started to feel hot again. Anyway, she felt uncomfortable all over...

"Arrest the director together?"

Li'er called Qi Yuxin, and Qi Yuxin came back to her senses. She always thought that she was walking outside with the guards, but Zhao Muyan let her get into the sedan chair...

"Yes…"

Qi Yu couldn't resist the order, so he could only think about getting on the sedan chair slowly to delay the time...

"Arrest the director..."

Li'er paused for a moment, then pointed to the fish-dragon knife on Qi Yuxin's waist. Weapons cannot be worn on the sedan chair. Qi Yuxin also forgot about this because of his lack of concentration...

Qi Yu untied the fish-dragon knife heartily and handed it to Li'er before getting into the sedan chair...

In the sedan chair, Zhao Muyan was seen wearing a deep purple palace robe, embroidered with clusters of elegant orchids, she just casually curled her hair and leaned lazily in a corner, her eyebrows and eyes were full of charm, and her lips were red. The rouge is lighter, and the beauty is dripping...

Qi Yuxin's throat slipped up and down unconsciously...

"Crazy?"

Seeing that Qi Yu was fascinated by looking at his appearance, Zhao Muyan was delighted, and it was not in vain to waste his elaborate grooming today.

"I beg your empress to forgive me."

Qi Yuxin knelt down. Fortunately, the sedan chair was very big, like a small room, and there was room for Qi Yuxin to kneel down, but the heat from her face could not be dissipated in this sedan chair.

"When did Ben Gong say that he would blame you, sit down."

Zhao Muyan chuckled a few times, and asked Qi Yuxin to sit down, and Qi Yuxin immediately chose a place farthest from Zhao Muyan to sit down. Zhao Muyan knew this would happen, but he didn't make any comments on her choice.

"Pear."

Zhao Muyan called Li'er, only to hear Li'er answering from outside.

"Get up the sedan chair."

Qi Yuxin: "!!"

Won't Li'er come in?

Qi Yu was obviously a little panicked. Isn't this because she wants to be alone with Zhao Muyan?

"No! Get up the sedan chair!"

Li'er's voice came from outside, Qi Yu felt the sedan chair shaking slightly, the sedan chair had already been lifted...

"Why does the director of Qi arrest look... at a loss?"

Zhao Muyan clearly guessed what Qi Yuxin was thinking, but he didn't tell the truth. Instead, he asked Qi Yuxin tentatively, wanting to see the person's reaction.

"...nothing."

Qi Yuxin just replied lightly, and Zhao Muyan didn't continue to ask if he didn't do what he said. Looking at the faint crimson on Qi Yuxin's face, he felt happy in his heart.

"Do you know why I asked you to accompany me to Zixia Palace?"

Zhao Muyan asked, Qi Yu froze for a moment, shook his head, and said, "This humble minister is stupid."

"Because~"

Zhao Muyan only said two words, but these two people lingered on Qi Yu's heart and tongue like a silky sweetness, lingering but unable to chew.

"I like to go with you!"

Zhao Muyan laughed, seeing Qi Yuxin's nervous expression gradually becoming blank, like a goose, Zhao Muyan felt that this person was very interesting.

The smooth sweetness melted in the mouth, and turned into a trace of warmth, which made the whole face feel hot...

Qi Yu turned away from looking at Zhao Muyan, took a deep breath, and said, "Thanks to your mother's love..."

Even though my face is burning hot...

But Qi Yu's heart in the words is still tight...
