After marrying a powerful minister, the female partner was pampered

Chapter 351 Is This Too Exciting?

After Lu Shuangshuang followed the emperor away, Qiao Jingjing looked at the princess helplessly, "Your Highness, can you let go?"

The eldest princess laughed and gently kneaded her fingers. "I heard there are acupuncture points on these fingers. Let me massage them for you."

Qiao Jingjing said: "I don't believe you!"

The eldest princess shook her hand away unhappily.

Qiao Jingjing didn't care, but asked worriedly: "Why did His Highness let Shuangshuang go alone with the Emperor?"

The eldest princess glanced at her and said, "I learned this from you."

Qiao Jingjing: "..."

She coughed lightly, "My brother is different from the emperor."

"Why is it different?" The eldest princess frowned.

"My brother is so gentle and obedient to you, but the emperor is not like that to Shuangshuang. Just now in the Empress Dowager's Palace, the emperor scolded Shuangshuang. He was like this in front of us. If they are alone together, won't the emperor get even worse?" Qiao Jingjing became more and more worried as she spoke.

She could see that the emperor disliked Shuangshuang very much and looked down on her.

If that’s the case, why did the emperor choose Shuangshuang as the queen?

Qiao Jingjing was a little confused.

"Your brother is not so obedient to me." The eldest princess frowned and muttered.

Two days ago, she asked someone to order boiled fish from Zuixianlou. She was just about to eat it when Qin Xuan came. Seeing that she was eating fish with such a strong flavor, he not only forbade her to eat it, but also lectured her.

She said her foot hadn't recovered yet and she should eat light food.

She hadn't eaten boiled fish for a long time because she was afraid of spicy food, so she wanted to satisfy her craving, but he spoiled her mood.

"What did you say?" Qiao Jingjing didn't hear clearly and asked.

"Nothing." The princess stopped thinking and said comfortingly, "You don't have to worry too much about Lu Shuangshuang. The emperor will scold her because he treats her as one of his own. Only his own people will hate her for being useless."

Qiao Jingjing was stunned by her fallacy.

How does the emperor treat Shuangshuang as one of his own?

He has a sharp tongue, okay?

"It's true. I know my royal brother's character. He doesn't even bother to talk to irrelevant people, but he loves Lu Shuangshuang deeply and blames her harshly." The eldest princess vowed.

Qiao Jingjing choked on her own saliva, "Cough cough cough..."

The eldest princess quickly patted her back and said unhappily, "Don't you believe what I said?"

Qiao Jingjing wanted to say that she didn't believe a word of it, so she could only smile awkwardly but gracefully.

The princess was angry, "I'm telling the truth. Even though my brother doesn't like Lu Shuangshuang that much now, he already regards her as his fiancée."

"Oh." Qiao Jingjing nodded perfunctorily.

The eldest princess held her hand and said, "If you don't believe me, let's follow them secretly and see for ourselves."

Qiao Jingjing: "..."

Wouldn’t it be too exciting to peek at the emperor? Wouldn’t it be so thrilling that you could lose your head if you’re not careful?
She felt that she had not lived enough, and shook her head decisively, "No."

But the eldest princess suddenly became curious about how her brother and Lu Shuangshuang got along in private, so she took her hand without giving her permission and walked in the direction the two had left before.

The emperor didn't know that his sister was chasing him from behind, trying to peek at him and Lu Shuangshuang. He walked in front with his hands behind his back, walking very fast, without paying any attention to Lu Shuangshuang behind him.

Lu Shuangshuang was having a hard time chasing after him.

Thinking of the emperor's bad temper, she could only try her best to keep up, but accidentally stepped on a stone and fell to the ground.

The emperor heard a "bang" behind him, the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground. He paused, turned around, and saw Lu Shuangshuang lying on the ground with her teeth bared.

The emperor saw this and looked disgusted, "Lu Shuangshuang, why are you so ugly?"

Lu Shuangshuang's knee was hurt from the fall and she was crying in pain. Upon hearing this, her tears stopped and she stared at the young man in front of her.

"Are you still not getting up?" The emperor frowned.

Lu Shuangshuang endured the pain, supported herself on the floor, and stood up with difficulty.

The emperor ignored her, turned around and continued walking forward.

The plum garden is very large. It is now the cold winter of December, the time when plum blossoms are in full bloom. The whole garden is full of plum blossoms, which is a beautiful sight.

But Lu Shuangshuang was not in the mood to appreciate it at the moment.

Her knee was broken and she felt very painful, but the emperor showed no intention of stopping and was walking so fast that she had tried her best to keep up with him.

When Qiao Jingjing and the eldest princess followed behind, they did not see Lu Shuangshuang fall. They only saw Lu Shuangshuang following the emperor closely, with slumped shoulders and lowered head, looking very depressed.

Seeing this, Qiao Jingjing looked at the eldest princess and said, "Your Highness, Shuangshuang is so depressed. She must have been scolded by the emperor."

The princess hesitated a little, "It shouldn't be that serious. No matter how bad the royal brother is, he can't keep scolding the same girl, right?"

Qiao Jingjing disagreed, "He's your brother, so you're naturally speaking for him. But if nothing happened, would Shuangshuang be so upset? And even if the emperor didn't scold Shuangshuang, he walked so fast. How could Shuangshuang, a girl, keep up with him?"

The eldest princess was speechless.

The two continued to follow on tiptoe.

After following for a while, Qiao Jingjing complained, "Is the emperor taking Shuangshuang to appreciate the plum blossoms? I think the emperor has completely forgotten that there is someone behind him."

Upon hearing this, the princess couldn't help but defend her brother, "My brother is very busy and has endless state affairs to deal with every day. He has no experience in getting along with girls and doesn't know how to take care of them. It's understandable."

"I'm not asking him to take care of her, but at least he can stop and wait for a while." Qiao Jingjing frowned, "Shuangshuang doesn't look right. Why is her leg a little lame?"

"How could that be?" The princess said without noticing. "You must have seen it wrong."

Qiao Jingjing thought of something and said with an unpleasant expression, "Could it be that the emperor beat Shuangshuang when we were not able to catch up just now?"

The princess's face turned ugly when she heard this. "Qiao Jingjing, how could you slander my brother like this? Although he is a little unromantic, he is not so bad. How could he hit his fiancée?"

Although Qiao Jingjing disagreed, she still kept her mouth shut.

After all, he is the emperor. If she talks too much, she might lose her head.

At this moment, Lu Shuangshuang fell to the ground for some reason.

The two of them were startled, but before they could run over, they heard the emperor's disdainful voice, "Lu Shuangshuang, you are really stupid. You have fallen twice on the same road. How can you be qualified to be the queen in the future if you are so stupid? The child born from your belly will definitely be as stupid as you."

Qiao Jingjing and the eldest princess were stunned.

After a long time, Qiao Jingjing came back to her senses and looked at the princess with an indescribable look.

The eldest princess immediately avoided her gaze guiltily and said somewhat reluctantly: "My royal brother...maybe he is under too much pressure."

"Just because you're under pressure, can you scold your fiancée? She hasn't even entered the palace yet. What will happen when she enters in the future?" Qiao Jingjing was incredulous.
