Wrong Marry to Cold CEO - C267
The next day, when he woke up, his surroundings were empty and cold. He could vaguely smell a faint scent that belonged to him. Xue Fu turned her body slightly, burying her small face in the soft silk quilt, feeling as if she was in his embrace. She realized that she still missed this breath, no, it should be said that she still missed his embrace, it was so warm and gentle.
“Empress, are you awake?” Outside the pavilion, Xiang Er asked carefully.
Xue Fu softly ‘yup’. The little girls quickly walked in, gathered up their hibiscus tents and pulled Xue Fu out of bed. Xue Fu was completely unsettled by the exaggerated formation, and said: “Go down, I’ll do it myself.”
The little girls were at a loss on what to do, at the same time, they looked towards Xiang Er Yun’er, who was a little girl from Yun He Palace, and had naturally become the popular person by his side. knew what Xue Fu liked, so he gave the girls a look. Only then did they feel at ease and dispersed.
After washing her face and rinsing her mouth, Xiang Er finished combing Xue Fu’s hair which was different from usual. She lightly brushed her eyebrows, her eyes and red lips, and wore a crown on her head. The concubines who had come to pay their respects were already waiting outside the pavilion. When they saw her attire, they were both jealous and resentful, and bowed to her unwillingly.
Bai Yuqi, who had always been cold towards her, became well-behaved this time, and did not dare to say a single word more. yufei’s eyes were still red and swollen. He sat at a corner staring at the golden crown on top of Xue Fu’s head and couldn’t help but want to rush over and take it off. Amongst everyone, only Consort Xie looked calm and peaceful as she sat on the left.
Xue Fu looked around at everyone, and said with a smile: “Since all of you are not in the mood to pay your respects to me, in the future, you will all stay in the palace. There is no need to come to Jing Yang Palace.”
“Chenqie doesn’t dare.” Everyone lowered their heads in unison as they spoke.
“I have always liked quiet. Sisters, please go back.” Xue Fu was not willing to continue being so hypocritical with them. After saying this, he paused for a moment, his gaze turned towards Xie Fei, and spoke again: “Xie Fei has received the imperial decree, from today onwards, you can leave the Imperial Palace.”
The hall was in an uproar as everyone turned to look at Xie Fei with sympathetic expressions. She guessed when she had offended the new empress and was expelled from the palace. Xie Fei also looked at Xue Fu in shock, afraid that she would hear wrongly. She immediately felt joy in her heart, but her expression remained calm and tranquil. “Thank you, esteemed empress, for your grace!”
The imperial concubines left one after another, leaving behind only Xie Fei who was still kneeling on the ground. Although Xue Fu had already given her a tie, she had not gotten up yet. Only after the crowd dispersed the light did Xue Fu heavily kowtow him and said gratefully, “I, your servant, will never forget the Empress’s great kindness in this life. Thank you, esteemed …”
“Elder sister, please rise.” Xue Fu disappointedly sighed, and the intelligent Xiang Er immediately went forward to lift Xie Fei up from the ground, giving her a seat.
Xie Fei’s senior, Xue Fu, was one year old. In private, Xue Fu was not used to calling her little sister. Seeing her puzzled and moved face, Xue Fu bitterly said: “Although Xue Fu has never interacted with big sister before, she has heard a bit about big sister’s matters. She cannot stay with someone she loves.
Xie Fei was shocked, her mouth opened wide, but no words came out. Xue Fu muttered: “Do you remember what happened at Qingan Palace that day? That is Xue Fu’s blood sister, a girl who was forced to separate from her loved one and was eventually abandoned by her lover … ”
“This is the life of a woman.” Empress Dowager Xie smiled mournfully, her smile bitter and sorrowful. This year’s life in the harem was no different from a golden bird cage. A thick wall separated her from her beloved life and separated her from it.
“Is he married?” Xue Fu fixed his eyes on Xie Fei and asked.
Xie Fei shook her head. “I refuse to say no.”
“Maybe he’s been waiting for you.” Xue Fu smiled and felt happy for her. At the very least, he would wait for her.
“Yes, he’s been waiting. Sometimes it hurts to think about it.”
Xue Fu let out a sympathetic sigh and comforted her: “Elder sister, please don’t worry and leave the palace. Once Xue Fu has finished writing the marriage contract, I will be able to do it in name.
Concubine Xie plopped to her knees once again, her eyes misty with tears of excitement. “Chenqie thanks the empress for bestowing the marriage!”
Sometimes, the happiness of a person’s entire life lies in the thoughts of others. Imperial Concubine Xie was a woman that Yue Ye didn’t want, but another man treated her like a treasure. With just a single word of his, he was able to allow them to live happily ever after.
Yue Ye went straight to Jing Yang Palace. Xue Fu was in the courtyard reading a book and saw him respectfully greet her. Xue Fu sat back on his chair and ignored him. However, the words on the book could no longer enter his mind, and his heart was already in chaos!
Yue Ye had long since gotten used to her ice-cold look. She hugged her from the chair, and said with a low smile, “My Queen, it’s only the first day, yet you’ve already married my concubine. You are quite rude!”
“If Your Majesty lacks a concubine, he can just recruit another concubine next year.” Xue Fu glared at him sarcastically.
Yue Ye laughed out loud in surrender, “There is no shortage! Not lacking! “This Emperor only has one woman.”
These words sounded extremely warm, and Xue Fu’s heart was naturally warmed by her words. However, she raised her head, and stared at Yue Ye, asking, “Can I ask you for a favor?”
Her serious look caused Yue Ye to feel that this was the first time in the past few days that she had been so polite to him, using the word ‘request’ to describe her. Thinking that this matter would be even more serious than letting Consort Xie leave the palace, Yue Ye’s heart couldn’t help but sink, and with a bad premonition she said with a smile, “My beloved concubine, please tell me.”
“Release Nangong Jue.” Xue Fu emphasized clearly. It was unreasonable for a queen to plead on behalf of a crown prince of another country, but she still said it in the hope of helping Nangong Jue.
Hearing this, Yue Ye was really unhappy, and her face sank, staring at her with dissatisfaction, “On what basis?” She was actually pleading for mercy for another man! As a man of the Nine Five Supremes, he could not bear this.
Xue Fu lowered her eyes, avoided his unhappy eyes, and said dejectedly: “Nangong Jue has been imprisoned because of Xue Fu, and Xue Fu is not at ease at all.”
“Is that all?” Yue Ye raised her brows at her, clearly having some doubts. Previously, it was Nangong Jue who saved Xue Fu at the edge of the cliff. Last time at Qing He Hall, Nangong Jue also wanted to escape the palace with Xue Fu.
“That’s all.” Xue Fu replied, she knew that Yue Ye must have misunderstood, which was why she reacted so emotionally. The gentle and warm sunlight shone on his face, making him look even more domineering. Yue Ye let go of her, turning her head to look at the beautiful red peony, watching the few colorful butterflies flying unceasingly, her expression becoming a lot calmer. When he turned to Xue Fu once again, his expression was no longer as dark as it was just now. Instead, it was filled with deep emotion.
Xue Fu lowered his gaze. “Xue Fu understands.”
Yue Ye smiled, holding her by the waist, “Accompany me to walk outside the palace.” After finishing her sentence, without waiting for her to refuse or agree, he pulled her out of Jing He Palace. Because he had a request just now, Xue Fu did not dare to object. When he arrived at Tai An Gate, he realized that he was already prepared. Eunuch Li led a black stallion and waited outside the door.
It was a majestic, well-groomed, and very good looking horse. It was Yue Ye’s private mount, and was used to hunting and leaving the palace in the past. Xue Fu said that he did not like to ride horses, so most of the martial artists that trained in him loved these things.
Yue Ye saw that she was looking at a dark horse with a strange glint in her eyes, obviously very interested in this good horse. With a low laugh, she teased her, “Who said that day that they didn’t like to ride horses?”
Xue Fu didn’t have enough time to be embarrassed, he was grabbed by Yue Ye and jumped onto the horse’s back. For the first time, he jumped onto the horse in such a posture.
Yue Ye’s two legs clamped down on the horse’s abdomen, and the black stallion immediately shot out like an arrow towards the entrance of the palace. The gust of wind that blew against their faces tore apart their clothes and hair, causing them to feel ashamed. His blood-red clothes intertwined with Xue Fu’s pure-white clothes.
Xue Fu squinted as she leaned against his chest. After a while, she could not get used to the feeling of being torn apart by the hurricane. The dark horse leaped past a few palace gates and finally rushed out of the palace. He had finally left the palace! Looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar object outside, Xue Fu’s heart trembled. That was an excited reaction. Since she had entered the palace a few months ago, this was the first time she had left. She even felt that the sunlight outside the palace was warmer than in the palace, and that the air was a lot fresher than in the palace.
The horse galloped through the busy city, scaring the stalls and the pedestrians to the point of dodging. Yue Ye smiled by Xue Fu’s ear: “Look, these are our people.”
Xue Fu looked at the peaceful and happy people who were living and working on both sides of the street, and his heart couldn’t help but be moved. There was nothing better than the peace of the nation. It could not be denied that Yue Ye was a successful ruler, and in the short span of three years that she had been under his command, the Kingdom of Yun calmed down from the chaos three years ago, returning to a tranquil state.
Their ears were filled with the sound of the wind and the sound of the black horse’s hooves falling. After running on the road for a long time, the bustling city market was shamelessly left behind by them. Immediately in front of them was a patch of lush green crops, and the horse finally came to a halt on a scenic hillside.
The few trees on the mountainside that were unknown were covered in white flowers, and their fingernail-like sized petals floated down with the wind, landing on Xue Fu’s pure white dress.
Lifting her little face, she allowed the white flower to fall on her face. Smelling its fragrance, she felt the beauty of nature. The golden sun shrouded the entire mountain top. It was extremely beautiful, just like the beautiful scenery of a painter’s painting.
