The Queen's Secret

Qi Yu stood heartily in the rain, neither dodging nor dodging, as if taking advantage of the rain to wake herself up...

She's a queen...she's always been a queen...

Li'er came out and saw Qi Yuxin standing in the rain, her heart tightened, she immediately opened her umbrella and ran over to cover Qi Yuxin too.

"Qi arrest the director, the empress doesn't want to see you, you go!"

After Qi Yu listened, her mind went blank. Looking at Li'er's anxious look, she suddenly remembered Zhao Muyan's appearance when he said he didn't want to see her...

Come to think of it, she won't be anxious!

Qi Yu stood in the rain with a stiff heart. Now that the temperature is low and she was drenched in the rain, she was stiff and trembling, cold, her whole body was bitingly cold...

But in my heart, it hurts from the cold...

Qi Yu didn't open her mouth, and Li'er remained in a stalemate with her. Li'er herself was shivering from the cold, but she didn't know why this person's face was still so calm...

But why can Li'er see sadness and despair in her eyes...?

Qi Yuxin's gaze passed through Li'er again, looking at the closed door...

Her body lost strength...but she could still stand up straight, as if this was her last pride.

Li'er was so cold that her trembling shoulders pulled back Qi Yu's fascination. She didn't know how long she had been silent, but how long she was silent, how long this person stood here...

"Thank you."

Qi Yuxin just said two words lightly, feeling too helpless, it seemed that the rain was endless.

Qi Yuxin turned to leave, Li'er was about to give away her umbrella, but Qi Yuxin only left her a back view, walking stubbornly step by step, ignoring the coldness of the wind and rain.

Li'er wanted to stop Qi Yuxin, but she was afraid of disturbing the emperor, afraid that Zhao Muyan would order something, so she didn't dare to walk away. The man left in a hurry, and while she was thinking about it, he had already left her Sight…

Hey... is this person made of wood?It's raining in this weather, don't you know it's cold?

Qi Yu walked in the corridors of the palace with a straight body, but she seemed to have lost her soul, letting the rain hit her face and body, but she didn't feel the slightest...

Although it's cold...but it's nothing compared to the dull pain in my heart...

She... want to spend the night with Emperor Yuan?

No...they have many more nights...and I am...nothing...

Qi Yuxin frowned, and started to run. Logically speaking, running is not allowed in the palace, but Qi Yuxin had already reached the gate of the imperial city without knowing it. Instead of going back to the old case room, she ran straight out...

She wants to go home... wants to go home...

"Isn't that... arresting the chief?"

Qi Yuxin often goes in and out of the imperial city, and the guards guarding the gate recognize her...

"How do you run in the rain without an umbrella?"

The two were talking, watching Qi Yuxin's dark purple flying fish robe drift away.

"I'm afraid there is something urgent?"

"It's hard work being an arresting officer, and I'm still investigating cases at this hour... hey~"

Qi Yuxin ran all the way back to Tao's house, looked at the familiar door, and finally sat down on the ground limply, leaning against the door, panting, her whole body was frozen, her lips and hands were so cold The purple was red, but she didn't notice it at all. Looking at the rain in front of her, she suddenly smiled...

Shouldn't... shouldn't have...

Tang Yuan has always been a hurdle in Qi Yu's heart. She has always been afraid that this will happen, but now that it really happened, she finds that she can't bear it...

I can't take it at all...

heart aches...

Qi Yu held her heart tightly, and even the neat Feiyu robe was wrinkled by her...

"Zhao Muyan..."

She always yelled out this name, this name entangled in her soul...

At this time, the door was opened, and the person who came out was Aunt Mei. Aunt Mei was startled when she saw a person lying in front of the door, but when she saw that it was Qi Yuxin, she immediately helped him up worriedly. up.

"Yu Xin, what's wrong with you? Get up!"

Aunt Mei was so frightened that she lost her soul. Seeing that person's pale face, slightly purple lips, and even red and purple hands, she knew that she had a severe cold.

When Aunt Mei helped Qi Yu to wake up, she felt like she was touching a block of ice. She was so startled that she immediately covered her hands, fearing that she would catch a cold...

When Qi Yuxin looked at Aunt Mei, she seemed hesitant to speak, but Aunt Mei didn't let her speak when she saw this, and said, "Let's go in first."

Qi Yuxin was silent along the way, Aunt Mei helped Qi Yuxin change her clothes, and lit a charcoal fire in her room, and this person warmed up a little.

"Ha chirp-"

Qi Yu sneezed in his heart, the chill went into his bones, he was afraid he was going to get sick...

"You child, why don't you take good care of your body..."

Aunt Mei rubbed Qi Yuxin's hair while chattering, while Qi Yuxin listened, her whole body gradually warmed up...

Aunt Mei looked at Qi Yu's distraught appearance, and sighed. This person looks like this, afraid that something went wrong, so he ran back in the rain. She has been like this since she was a child, as long as she is not happy If she loses her mind, she will run to the house, and then hide in the room without going out, so I am the only one who can say a word or two to her, and when she thinks about it, she will come out of the room and recover as before.

Aunt Mei didn't ask Qi Yuxin what happened. She knew that the child wanted to talk, so she would say it naturally.

"Aunt May..."

Qi Yuxin said the first words after entering the room, Aunt Mei stopped wiping her hair, then looked at her quietly, and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Can I give you a hug?"

Qi Yuxin never made such a request. Even when she was a child, she never asked for hugs. She always looked like a little adult, always calm and full of thoughts. Aunt Mei was always worried. She, but now...

"Of course you can..."

Without Qi Yuxin actively opening her arms, Aunt Mei opened her arms first and hugged Qi Yuxin into her arms...

"Silly boy…"

Aunt Mei brushed the back of Qi Yuxin's head, as if she was comforting a child. Qi Yuxin's eyes became hot, and she shed the tears that had been accumulated for too long just now...

She tightly hugged Aunt Mei into her arms, as if she was trying to grab the last straw, this hug was so tight that it was breathless.

Zhao Muyan...Zhao Muyan...don't...don't sleep in bed, okay...

Zhao Muyan... Zhao Muyan...

I feel terrible!

Aunt Mei's heart trembled at Qi Yu's sobs. This child... actually cried... This is the first time she cried in front of her...

What the hell...would make this child suffer so much?

Aunt Mei was distressed...but she knew that giving this child space was the most important thing, so she just gave her a hug and didn't ask her what was on her mind.

Aunt Mei thought to herself that Tao Mingyi hadn't come back yet, and when he came back, she would definitely help Qi Yuxin take a few days off to rest...

The next day, Qi Yuxin really fell ill and was bedridden. She didn't go back to the old case room, and Aunt Mei explained everything to Tao Mingyi, who also granted Qi Yuxin a leave of absence for several days.

Southern Kingdom, Imperial Palace, Fengxi Palace.

Zhao Muyan couldn't sleep at night, she kept thinking about Qi Yuxin, and was afraid that Qi Yuxin would leave her again. Early the next morning, after Tang Yuan left, she immediately sent Li'er to the old case room to invite someone, regardless of whether she was there or not. Busy, she must see Qi Yuxin.

It's just that Li'er came back to report the news that Qi Yuxin took sick leave and is not in the palace now.

Zhao Muyan was even more flustered, she wanted to see Qi Yuxin, she wanted to see her like crazy, she never thought that Qi Yuxin would run into this matter, but she was arranged by An Yuan properly .

"How can I not get sick, and it's raining in such a cold day..."

Li'er couldn't help muttering, thinking how she doesn't know how to take care of herself when she's such a big person...

"What did you say?!"

Zhao Muyan's heart tightened when he heard Li'er's words, so he hurriedly asked.

Li'er was startled, her hands trembled, and she immediately said, "Well...Yesterday, the director of Qi arrest was waiting for the empress in the rain, and after you said you couldn't see her, she left again in the rain..."

damn it!

Zhao Muyan's nose was sour, his eyes were red, and he wanted to cry...

She was silent for a while, and finally said: "Let Yunshuang come over..."

"promise."

Southland, capital city, Tao house.

It was already noon when Qi Yuxin woke up, his whole body was cold and aching, his headache was splitting, his eyes were opened, but he still couldn't move...

She looked straight ahead, and after thinking of Zhao Muyan, her eyes felt dry and sore again, she closed her eyes, and simply stopped thinking about it...

Before she knew it, she fell asleep again...

Knock Knock...

knock knock...

The door of Tao's house was opened, and there were two women in strong clothes standing in front of the door, one of them was wearing a mask, and she could only see the part below the nose, but Aunt Mei felt that this person was a beauty.

"Hello, Auntie, we are Yuxin's friends and guards in the palace. I heard that Yuxin is ill and I want to come and visit her."

After hearing the man's words, Aunt Mei was startled for a while, her thoughts turned back and forth...

Yuxin has friends?

But are these two really Yu Xin's friends?

Xu Shi has been working in Tao Zhai for a long time, and Aunt Mei also has vigilance that ordinary people don't have, so naturally she won't easily trust the people in front of her.

Tie Yunshuang could see Aunt Mei's suspicion, and immediately showed the badge of Fengxi Palace. Aunt Mei is also a person with good eyesight. There are portraits of various palace badges in Tao Mingyi's study. If you can see it, you will naturally recognize this as the badge of Fengxi Palace.

The empress's person?

I heard that the empress empress has put a lot of value on Yu Xin, and now her bodyguards are all here to visit, presumably the rumors are true.

"You two, please come in."

Aunt Mei stepped aside and let the two of them in. At this time, the woman wearing the mask spoke, with a melodious voice and a lingering tone. She didn't look like a guard, but like a lady.

"It was abrupt, but I was really worried about Yuxin, so I had to interrupt."

Aunt Mei saw that this man spoke in a polite manner, presumably he was also a scholar, so she smiled and said, "It's okay, it's just that Yu Xin is still asleep, why don't you two go to the lobby and wait, and I will make tea for you?"

The thin lips of the masked person pursed, even though he was hiding under the mask, it was not difficult for Aunt Mei to see that this person was worried about Qi Yu.

Unconsciously, she sighed inwardly: Yuxin has a sincere friend...that's really great...

And this masked person is the current Southern Demon Queen...

Zhao Muyan.
