Empress marry

Chapter 172 Doesn't Lian Zhen need a reason to see you now?

Xiao Liu found out that this maid named Qin Shu was screened by the palace a year ago, so far five maids who have a good relationship with her have been found, and three of them can be sure that there are ghosts, because every time they meet , They are all chosen in mysterious places.

"What, something else?" Lu Qingqing said straight to the point with a cold face.

"The emperor wants to see you." Qin Shu said.

Lu Qingqing's eyes narrowed for a moment, "Time, place?"

"Longteng Restaurant." Qin Shu explained, "It's the emperor's place."

Lu Qingqing nodded, probably guessing that the emperor had something else for her to do.Originally, she planned not to go directly, but remembering the painting that the emperor asked her to steal last time...she went back to prepare and then sneaked out.

After thinking about it for a long time, it should be much better to know yourself and your enemy than to tear your face apart.

Lu Qingqing thought, rather than letting other secret agents in the palace do things for the emperor, it would be better for her to get the first-hand information from the emperor herself, and then make some moves in it, just like the painting last time.

In this way, he will not reveal his identity in front of the emperor, and he can do something for Shangguan Jinglan.

As for why she wanted to help him, she no longer wanted to think about it. Anyway, in this era of helplessness, at least Shangguan Jinglan was her closest person in name.She didn't believe in the nonsense of bringing down the regent and then entering the palace as a concubine.

……

Shangguan Qi Han had been waiting for her in the private room of the restaurant early on, staring at the painting on the desk.Hearing the footsteps at the door, he moved slightly, wanting to go to open the door for her, but his footsteps stopped quickly, and he just stopped where he was and waited for her.

Lu Qingqing quickly opened the door and came in, meeting his gaze directly.

She smiled slightly, "Is the emperor asking me to do something else?"

Shangguan Qi Han's deep gaze shivered slightly, "Does it mean that even if I want to see you now, I must have a reason?"

"Don't dare."

Lu Qingqing lowered her head, closed the door respectfully and walked in front of him.

Shangguan Qi Han looked away, controlled his slightly chaotic mind, pointed to the painting on the desk and said: "This is the painting you gave me last time. You have always studied calligraphy and painting, come and see what is in this painting The mystery?"

Hearing this, Lu Qingqing breathed a sigh of relief.

He said that because he didn't suspect that the painting was faked by her.

"Your Majesty, you are absurd. I only know something about calligraphy and painting, but I don't know anything deeper."

Lu Qingqing stared at the impossible-to-see painting on the table, and said softly, "But you can go back and try various color-developing potions. After all, if the painter wants to hide something in it, he must not It will be expressed directly, but through some extraordinary means, such as colorless potion or paper that can only be colored after being baked."

"It's not like I haven't thought about what you said..."

It's just that there are too many similar drugs and the process is complicated, and this painting may be damaged if you are not careful.

"That's it."

Shangguan Qi Han said, "One more thing." The man's eyes were condensed and deep, and he looked at her inquiringly, "I heard that before you got married, you sent the picture of picking chrysanthemums that the queen mother gave you in the embroidery competition to the Prince Regent's residence, didn't you?"

Lu Qingqing's breathing stagnated slightly, "Yes."

"Why?" The man narrowed his eyes, "Does the emperor want this painting, or do you want it?"

Lu Qingqing smiled and looked at him calmly, "Of course I want it. What does the regent want for this painting?"
