A Female King's Love Story

Although Qiao Qiao was not a lightweight martial artist, his body was still as light as a swallow as he followed closely behind the black-clothed man, his face showing slight ridicule.

"I didn't expect you to actually dare to chase us." The man in black suddenly stopped and turned around. His face was slightly curved and he was full of smiles.

"How is it? Could it be that when you barged into my house, I couldn't even come out to see who exactly it was? " Qiao Qiao was still slightly exhausted after chasing for a long while. He leaned against a large tree at the side, his arms crossed before his chest as he spoke to the black-clothed man in front of him at a casual pace.

"The emperor is straightforward indeed. There is no friendship between the two of us. I've invited you here not to chat casually, I just want to discuss a deal with the emperor." Although the man in black could not see his face, Qiao Qiao was still able to see the fleeting cunning look in his eyes.

"What a nice sentence. You don't have any relationship at all. Since you don't have any, how would you know that I'm willing to negotiate a deal with you?" Qiao Qiao still rolled his eyes. The person in front of him was indeed an arrogant person.

"Your majesty, why not listen to it first?" The man in black leisurely said without getting angry.

"The emperor is really straightforward!" The black clothed man squinted his eyes, he had originally thought that he would have to waste more time talking to the useless emperor, but who would have thought that the emperor was also a smart person, and he liked to deal with them the most, "I am willing to help you take back the power of Qiao Country, and not be controlled by anyone else."

"Oh? "Conditions." Qiao Qiao saw that her humble identity had already revealed a flaw in front of this person, so he simply became more cautious.

"I want the Emperor to lend me a hand and investigate a person!" The man in black narrowed his eyes. His entire body was emitting killing intent.

"I'm afraid that This Emperor will not be able to take out this arm." Joe raised his eyebrows. He thought too highly of her.

"Your Majesty is overthinking it." The black clothed person slowly smiled. "Of course there is no need for Your Majesty to personally do it. As long as Your Majesty …" The black-clothed man's thin lips slightly parted, not hearing the voice, but using his inner force to form the words in his mouth into Qiao Qiao's ear.

The surroundings were deathly silent. Qiao Qiao's ears were still lagging behind, he could only hear the whistling of the wind beside his ears, as if the words from before were just an illusion.

Her heart skipped a beat.

Who would have thought that this person would actually set his calculations in the imperial court? Just who was he?

"The emperor can consider this. Three days later, at this time, or this place, I'll wait for his reply."

"Aren't you afraid that I will send some soldiers to arrest you in three days?" Qiao Qiao raised his eyebrows. It seemed like this person wasn't simple. He dared to make an appointment with her three days later. Did he really think that she would do this for that condition?

"You won't." The man in black laughed, turned around and jumped into the air. Then, he disappeared into the distance.

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! Your Majesty!" From afar, Xiyue's urgent voice rang out, but Qiao Qiao still turned slightly. The black clothed man had just left when Xiyue came here. Was it really just a coincidence?

Without any time to think, Xiyue arrived next to Qiao yet again and looked around.

"Your Majesty, where is the assassin? Did you get hurt? " Xiyue looked worriedly at Qiao once, but the sincerity in her eyes didn't seem fake.

"We lost it." Joe continued to smile. It looked like she was overthinking things.

"That's good. In the future, the Emperor must not travel alone in such a dangerous situation." Xiyue was still cautiously looking around.

"No problem. With my current strength, I'm afraid I won't be able to move the Embroidered Uniform Guard and imperial guards. What can I do if I'm not alone?" Joe continued to smile bleakly.

Xiyue was slightly startled. Seeing the expression on her Emperor's face … she truly felt pain in her heart, as well as anxiety.

Qiao Qiao could still tell that Xiyue's concern for her wasn't an act. It seemed that the spy beside her was someone else.

"Xiyue, what is this place?" Qiao Qiao still looked around. Within the palace, it was the man in black who had intentionally lured her here. It was truly strange to see that there was no one in the middle of the day.

"Your majesty, this is the cold palace of the past. Since the late emperor passed away, this place has been abandoned." Xiyue replied.

Cold palace? Qiao Qiao still frowned slightly. No wonder this place was so deserted.

"Then how did you find this place?" Joe asked.

"This servant saw the emperor run out and immediately chased after him. After searching for a long time, I couldn't find any trace of the emperor, and just as I was hesitating, the cloth strip at the entrance of the Cold Palace attracted me. This servant saw that it was the emperor's clothes, so I chased in." As she spoke, Xiyue pulled out a shining piece of cloth from her sleeve and placed it in her hand, handing it over to Joe.

Qiao Qiao's eyes still narrowed and he lowered his head to look. It was indeed the torn strip of cloth at the corner of his clothes.

Her words seemed to be flawless, but they were actually full of holes. Her words were very neat and orderly, and the moment she heard them, she immediately came up with an excuse. Even if the matter with the black clothed person today had nothing to do with Xiyue, then Xiyue must still be hiding something from her.

Since she didn't want to say it, she shouldn't have mentioned it. However, if she found out that Xiyue had a second thought, then don't blame her …

"Your majesty, the wind is blowing. Don't get cold, let's return to the Palace." Xiyue quietly reminded him.

"Right." Qiao Qiao still nodded and walked out of the cold palace.

Xiyue followed closely behind Qiao Yifan and let out a long sigh of relief. Her breath was so light that only those with strong inner strength would be able to hear it.

Still, Joe heard it.
