I Really Like That Guy!
Vol 9 Chapter 10:
Ever since he learned that Xu Xiang hasn't married yet, his heart has been heavy, as if pressing down on something heavy.
The people beside him were still whispering to him anecdotes about Xu Xiang.
Qin Jue wanted to tell him to stop talking, but he listened quietly - knowing oneself and knowing one another can win a hundred battles, and he always remembered this truth.
The sun gradually rose, and not far away came the voice of the palace staff, and it turned out that it was Princess Kang Ning.
Princess Kang Ning and His Majesty's sisters are deeply in love. This is a well-known thing inside and outside the palace. In recent days, Princess Kang Ning often comes to His Majesty early in the morning, and only reluctantly leaves at night.
Every time Princess Kang Ning came, His Majesty would go out to greet her in person.
Qin Jue looked at the figure of the empress, silently pursed the corners of her lips, and there was a slight anxiety in her expression. He has to do something to change the current state of the two.
If only as her guard, she might never see him for the rest of her life.
What Qin Jue did not expect, the turning point came so quickly.
In the evening, the sun slanted westward, and the rays of light spread all over the earth.
On a whim, the queen and the princess went to the imperial animal garden in the palace to watch the beasts. The Empress likes ferocious beasts, and the beasts in the Imperial Beast Garden are either lions and tigers, or black bears, cheetahs and other beasts.
The Imperial Beast Garden is very large, and those beasts have been domesticated by special personnel. In the past, the Empress also came to see them. Most of the beasts lay on the ground peacefully for people to visit.
Today, for some unknown reason, the beasts seemed to be a little restless. When the queen and princess visited, a cheetah hidden behind the shadow of a tree made a prey on them.
No one expected such a development, because they were too caught off guard, and the guards did not react.
The Empress responded quickly. She turned her head to protect her younger sister, Princess Kang Ning, but her back was exposed to the cheetah's attack range.
Qin Jue's eyes never took her away, so he quickly pounced on her.
In fact, at that moment he didn't even think about anything, he didn't think about his plans, and he didn't think about what benefits he would get by doing so.
His mind went blank, and the movements he rushed towards seemed to be just subconscious conditioned reflexes.
The cheetah pounced and bit his arm. The sharp claws scratched his clothes, the sharp teeth pierced deep into the flesh, and Qin Jue's arm suffered a sharp pain.
He only frowned slightly and kicked the cheetah's stomach.
Recently, his training has been very effective. The cheetah was kicked away by him. At this time, everyone came back to their senses, and immediately caught the leopard to catch the leopard, and the rescuer saved the human.
Corning turned pale with fright, and Arlo comforted her a little, then turned to look at the man not far away.
Qin Jue, who was wearing the armor of the guards, was tall and straight, and he was no longer as thin as he first saw him.
A **** wound was bitten on his hand, but there was no difference in his expression. His fair face was handsome and his dark eyebrows were deep.
When A Luo looked over, he happened to bump into his eyes. The man's black eyes were deep, and his demeanor was no longer as humble and cowardly as before, but instead revealed an inexplicable firmness.
The two looked at each other, Qin Jue came over, knelt in front of her on one knee, bowed his head and said, "Your Majesty is frightened, the fault of your subordinates, I hope Your Majesty will punish you."
As always, the words, as always, look to His Majesty to punish, but the attitude is different.
On the march, every time Qin Jue faced her, he was submissive and humble, like the most loyal and humble servant. Now he has cast aside that humility and revealed a little real inside.
No wonder other people said he was slanderous, his performance at that time was really easy to misunderstand.
As soon as Qin Jue knelt down, the other attendants also knelt down, and a large crowd of people knelt down in the Imperial Beast Garden.
A Luo looked at him deeply, and after a moment said: "Get up, you have done a good job in saving and driving, and I should reward you." After a pause, she said again, "Tell me what you want."
Qin Jue shook his head slightly, and when everyone bowed their heads and said nothing, he boldly raised his eyes, his black eyes fixed on the condescending empress, and said solemnly: "Jade slave is His Majesty's servant, slave does nothing. Please, I just hope that I can always be by Your Majesty’s side, and the slave will be satisfied.”
A Luo smiled slightly and said to him: "In this case, it will be as you wish."
After that, Qin Jue was asked to bandage the wound, and the female officer beside the empress who led him explained his future responsibilities to him, which probably meant that he was promoted to be the empress' personal attendant, and he could serve the empress without having to cleanse himself. Instead of leaving the palace at the point like a guard.
It sounds like it hasn't changed much, but in fact there are still differences.
For example, the imperial study room, which was not allowed to be stepped into before, can now be followed.
Not to mention the surprise in Qin Jue's heart here, in a pavilion on the other side, Kang Ning pulled the empress' sleeve and curiously asked about the jade slave.
As a modern woman who has read countless romance novels and love fat house dramas, Kang Ning can see the tricky relationship between her emperor's sister and the handsome guard at a glance.
Others might think this was a coincidence, but Kang Ning knew that going to the Imperial Beast Garden today was not a whim of the Empress.
Although I didn't get along with this sister for a long time, perhaps because she was an outsider, she didn't have eyes full of empress filters like other people.
She likes her sister very much, which stems from her reverence for outstanding women, and who doesn't love a beautiful sister?
Kang Ning came to rub her sister every day, although sometimes it was for the chance to meet the prime minister who made her fall in love at first sight in the imperial study, but she also had real contact with her sister for several days.
There is a saying that if you want to see through a person, just look at the books or notes he reads, and the words will record what he thinks.
And she saw her outstanding talent in resourcefulness from the memorials dealt with by her sister. She is by no means just a **** of war, she is also a monarch of sage.
When her sister didn't come back, Kang Ning always listened to Xu's admiration for her relative, saying that His Majesty will definitely become the co-lord of the world and unite all countries.
She thought it was too exaggerated at first, but now she is convinced that such an empress is definitely an emperor through the ages!
Suddenly discovering that her wise and godly elder sister was hiding a secret and was not as dedicated as she thought to the world, Kang Ning felt very excited.
"Sister, I said yesterday that I wanted to go to the Imperial Beast Garden, but you said that I would go again today. Did you plan it long ago?" Kang Ning asked curiously.
A Luo glanced at her lightly: "Little girl, you can think wildly."
Kang Ning rolled his eyes and smiled mysteriously: "That guard is too good-looking, even better than the portraits of the sons of the noble family sent by Elder Ge. Sister, don't say that you have no other idea of putting him by your side."
Arlo was noncommittal, looking down at the koi under the pavilion and the water pavilion.
Seeing that she was ignoring him, Kang Ning rolled his eyes and said with a smile, "If my sister really has no idea, why don't you give him to me?"
The Empress said without raising her head, "No."
Kang Ning stared at her with wide eyes, only to see the Empress slowly lift her eyes, her eyes were calm, but there was a meaningful taste hidden in the depths: "He is not something you can resist."
Qin Jue is like a wild dog that needs a strong man to tame.
In the plot, he was knocked down to the bottom, his pride was broken inch by inch, and he fell into a low point in his life. When he met the heroine at the darkest time, he was warmed by her and will always be remembered in his heart.
A Luo can't bear to let him really suffer those tortures, so Qin Jue is still the one who is inferior and proud. If someone is nice to him for no reason, he will doubt and use it instead of being grateful.
She could only lure him secretly and let him come up to bite the hook.
Not to mention Silly Bai Tian Kang Ning, I'm afraid that he will have to be used to death, and even help him count the money when he is sold.
Qin Jue was only on duty the next day, even though the Empress gave him a few days off so that he could cultivate well.
When he went out, the servants who lived in the same room all gathered together to congratulate him on his promotion, and some people said that he had seen him as an extraordinary boy, and he should not forget his brother in the future.
It seems that all those contradictions in the past have been written off.
Qin Jue also said, he has always known how to get along with people friendly, and when people he doesn't know meet, I'm afraid they think they are brothers.
The first day of serving the Empress personally began in the early morning.
I don't know what the courtiers have made up their minds. This morning, someone recommended Xu Xiang as the emperor's husband. Anyway, Daxing has women as emperors, and it is not out of the ordinary for the prime minister to be her husband.
And the Empress is ready to continue to conquer the world at first sight, and the ministers also hope that she will do the same. After all, who doesn't want to rule the world?
At that time, it would be more reasonable for the empress to leave the palace and her husband to supervise the country.
The official who made this suggestion felt that his idea was too good. It just so happened that the prime minister had not married yet. Although he had the fate of his wife, he couldn't compare to the fate of the real dragon and the emperor. The two were simply a match made in heaven.
Hearing this proposal, the empress pondered for a long time on the dragon chair, and then left the court after leaving one to stay.
Xu Xiang didn't speak the whole time. No matter what his attitude was about this matter, it was difficult for him to speak up, so he kept silent.
Just in silence, he sensed a strong hostility inexplicably, which made his spine chill.
A Luo returned to the imperial study room as usual. She had always kept very few people around her, especially in such an important place as the imperial study room, no one was allowed to enter.
In the past, even if a maid came with her, she was always guarding the outside, and she handled official duties in the inside alone.
Today is different from the past. She brought a personal servant Yunu, but she personally promised to let him serve him personally, so naturally she could not go back.
A Luo can feel the man standing behind him, very close to him, even if he doesn't make a sound, she can still detect his gaze.
With a memorial in her hand, she sat there and called him softly, "Yu Nu."
"Yes, Your Majesty." The man stepped over and knelt down beside her.
"I remember I said that a servant should look like a servant." She said slowly, with a cold voice, "Look up and look at me."
The man raised his head silently and looked up at her, his dark eyes filled with burning heat that was about to overflow.
The cold memorial book was on his face, and the empress looked at him aloofly, spitting out indifferent words: "The way you look now is not what a servant should look like."
"Yes, Your Majesty." The man's voice was hoarse, as if suppressing a huge ambition, "I not only want to be your servant..."
