I Really Like That Guy!
Vol 9 Chapter 18:
Recently, he has rarely shown such a gesture, probably because he has gained enough sense of security, and the two interact more as equals when they get along.
A Luo reached out and touched the man's cool fingertips: "Is it cold?"
Qin Jue pursed her lips and stared at her with her black eyes, with a stubborn and stubborn look on her face.
He didn't speak, and Arlo didn't mind either, holding his hand and pulling him to the fire to sit down.
Qin Jue's body is actually a little weak. In winter, his hands and feet are always cold.
According to him, it was because he was mistreated in the Jersey Palace as a child, when he was young and had no conditions to do anything. In winter, the palace where he lives is always without any charcoal fire, and sometimes the roof leaks.
A Luo had instructed the imperial doctor to replenish his body, but it has not been effective.
She has practiced martial arts since she was a child, and her body is full of vitality. Even in winter, her hands and feet are warm, so she develops the habit of warming his hands when she sees him.
When the two of them slept at night, Qin Jue would also cling to her. He said that she was like a stove. He had never slept well by himself before, but he could sleep peacefully every night with her.
Xu Shi felt her silent care, and Qin Jue's mood calmed down a little.
A Luo glanced at him, let go of his hand, and said, "Who said I was going to abandon you?"
Qin Jue raised her eyes to look at her, her eyes were pitiful, like a puppy who knew that he was about to be abandoned, "But, you want to go, but you don't take me with you."
A Luo: "Could it be that when I leave, you are not the husband of Daxing?"
Qin Jue pursed her lips and said nothing.
Arlo knew that it wasn't that he didn't understand the truth, but that he just liked to get to the point.
Doing the math, this person is only twenty years old this year, a little younger than her. No one taught him since he was a child, and he has grown savagely to the present, and there is still a bit of stubbornness that belongs to children in his bones.
I couldn't see it before, but now he is more and more open and childish in front of her.
"You just said that Prime Minister Ling and Kang Ning supervise the country, how do you think you compare to them?"
Qin Jue: "..."
"Yes, you all understand that it is the best way for you to stay behind."
Qin Jue raised her head, her eyes were still a little red, she looked straight at her and said, "I just don't want to be separated from you! The battlefield is so dangerous, even if I believe that you are invincible, I can't help but worry. Ce, what should I do?"
Arlo replied calmly: "Stabilize the government and assist the new emperor to ascend to the throne."
Qin Jue's dark eyes flashed water, and he stared straight at her. Even though he knew in his heart that the empress was like this, he still felt a trace of unspeakable sadness.
She is rational and calm, and even if she is in love, she can quickly withdraw.
Unlike him, there is only one her with eyes full of eyes, and she doesn't care about anything anymore. Even if it is his home country, he can hand it over to him, and there is nothing like her here.
For her, Daxing is more important than him.
No, doesn't he know this? He had long understood her character.
After all, he was too weak to keep up with her.
While her thoughts were floating, the woman suddenly stretched out her hand, touched his profile lightly, and sighed, "You look at me like this, and it makes me feel like a wicked person."
Qin Jue's long eyelashes trembled, and she turned her eyes away, her eyes unconsciously falling on the brazier not far away.
The charcoal burnt in the basin is red, like pieces of crystal ruby, exuding warm heat.
Just like her, like a bright sun, radiating light and heat, shining and warming him.
"I need you, and it is precisely because I need you that I leave you in Daxing. Daxing is my country, my responsibility, and my home. I entrust my home to you, do you still think I don't value you? "
A calm female voice rang in his ears, Qin Jue blinked, and turned around abruptly.
The woman's expression was always indifferent, just like these days, Qin Jue often worry about gain and loss because of some trivial matters, and she has always been so calm, always giving him a strong sense of security.
At this moment, too.
She just said a word, and his heart that fell to the bottom rose up.
It's not that she doesn't want him, that she doesn't value him, or that she doesn't need him.
On the contrary, she kept him in Daxing precisely because she valued him and thought he was worthy of entrusting such important things.
Just now, he was on the cusp of bullshit, and he always thought of separation. This would change his thinking, and all his sadness and loss would be swept away.
Qin Jue has always wanted to gain the approval of the Empress. This is an idea that has been hidden in his heart since he first met him, but he also has self-knowledge. He lags far behind the Empress. Whether it is force or resourcefulness, he can't compare to her, so this idea It has always been in the bottom of my heart.
When he found out that the Empress chose him, he was both surprised and apprehensive, because he didn't know where he attracted her.
Then he thought, maybe it was the face.
Qin Jue's appearance is outstanding. When we first met, the empress also said that he looked good, so she brought him to her side.
Since then, he has been unable to hide his humility in front of her, and he has served her like a servant, even if he is already a royal husband. He often pestered her on the bed, wanting to see her absent-minded for him. There are some young and handsome guards in the palace, and he will secretly send them away from her. If he sees her talking to any guard, he can't help but feel worried.
These emotions could not be restrained, and they came from the inferiority complex in his bones.
But that remark just now dispelled his last bit of haze and anxiety.
The damp and dark place like a gutter in my heart, for the first time, spilled into the sun.
Facing the woman's mirror-like eyes, Qin Jue suddenly felt that she had been seen through all the time. She may have discovered his despicable thoughts long ago, but she has been so silently accommodating him.
At this moment, the scars left on the heart since childhood, accompanied by the sound of Bi Bo from the charcoal fire, slowly disappeared like snow under the sun.
"Your Majesty, slave... I will definitely live up to my trust." The man's voice was dry, and he spit out these words with difficulty.
He thought that the suffering of the first half of his life might have been just to meet her.
Shined by her, warmed by her, healed by her.
Time passed quietly, and this year's New Year was very lively, not only because of the New Year, but also because of the wedding of Princess Kang Ning and the Prime Minister.
No one thought that Xu Xiang was thirty years old and could still marry a princess.
Although this marriage is very surprising, it does not prevent everyone from giving blessings. After all, two people have a congenital weakness, and it is always good to say something auspicious.
The wedding of the two was very grand, and it was not much worse than the previous female emperor's husband, and it just happened to hit the New Year, so the entire imperial city was really lively for a while.
After the Lantern Festival, the lively atmosphere slowly cooled down. A cold spring brought a heavy snow, and the thick snow had people's legs high.
In such a cold day, it is also a time of slack for farming. Everyone has not yet come out of the joy of the festival. The most comfortable thing is to sleep in a warm room with a fire.
Qin Jue was well aware of this principle, and while she was leaving the court, she stalked the empress almost all day long.
In short, now the empress is being led by him, from being ignorant before, to being able to face any tricks without changing her face and heart.
Of course, she can also understand, after all, it is normal to be clingy at all.
That night, when the two of them were lying on the couch, Qin Jue seemed to suddenly remember something: "Your Majesty, why have we been married for so long and your stomach has not moved?"
He was putting his hands on her waist, kneading her sore waist.
A Luo was exhausted, and replied in a daze: "Didn't I say I don't have children?"
Qin Jue: "I know, but we didn't take medicine, and we didn't do anything..."
Qin Jue has always been aware of the drug that can kill the heir in the palace, but according to his observation, neither he nor the empress have ever taken this drug. Since they got married, they haven't been restrained, so it shouldn't be possible for them to miss it once, right?
A Luo closed his eyes and said lazily, "Don't worry, I can't have children."
The hand that was around her waist stopped abruptly, and the man was silent for a while before asking, "Why?"
When A Luo opened his eyes, he saw Qin Jue pursing her lips and looking at her deeply.
She reached out and grabbed his fingers, took him to the waist and abdomen, and said, "Did you feel this scar? An arrow pierced here, and since then, I have been unable to conceive."
Qin Jue had seen the scar countless times, it was not big, it was a round hole, and he also asked when his affection was strong, how did those scars come from?
The empress would sometimes answer, and sometimes she would be too lazy to say it. Qin Jue seldom asked, because every time he asked, his heart throbbed.
Only then did he realize that the pain was not as good as this time.
Even if he knew that the Empress did not have children, but not wanting and not being able to have children are two different things.
"Looks like you still have energy?" A Luo saw his small expression and knew that this person was secretly sad again.
The two of them are really two extremes. Others say that women are emotionally sensitive, but they are completely exchanged.
It's not good to have too much thinking, it's easy to think too much, and she has to coax her too much.
But there is also a good point, that is, the focus on love and single-mindedness. Once such a person loves you, he is really loving his whole soul.
Later, in the middle of the night, Qin Jue secretly kissed the scar on her abdomen for a long time. A Luo closed his eyes and pretended not to notice.
On the day the Empress left, it was the end of spring, the peach blossoms were blooming and they were defeated, and the ground was red after a rain.
The Empress drove her to the expedition and raised the city to see him off. All the people voluntarily stood by the street and watched as the Empress led the army through the city.
Qin Jue led a group of ministers out of the city gate, stood on the city tower and watched the man riding a tall horse, holding a spear and wearing a red robe and leaving.
Princess Kang Ning was supported by the Prime Minister. She touched her stomach and said to her husband, "Husband, when the child is born, can we adopt it to my sister?"
The prime minister has no reason to respond. They all understand that the good and bad luck of the queen's trip is unpredictable, and Kang Ning also hopes that her sister will be more concerned about it.
Qin Jue never heard them talking. He stood there, watching the army walk away, and didn't look back until he couldn't see it.
