Chapter 163 Opening the Curtain (2)
Haoyue raised her eyebrows, and stared lightly, the breeze blew by, moving Haoyue's skirt, she retracted her gaze, Haoyue said slowly: "I don't know what the emperor is talking about?"

"Portrait of Qinghou." He Lianqi said in a low voice, with longing and deep sadness in his tone.

Green house?

Hao Yue was stunned for a moment.

It was only later that she remembered that it was Xiao Hanyue's title, and it was the princess who personally sealed it when the late emperor was still alive, which can be said to be the supreme honor of the Xiao family. Most of the time, it was Qingwan who was called.

As for the special significance of the name Qinghou to He Lianqi, Haoyue has no idea, perhaps, she can find out today.

"Ah! There is such a thing." Haoyue's fingers lightly blew her messy hair behind her ears, there was not much interest in her black eyes, and she didn't even refuse, "So, the emperor will lead the way .”

The two were in front of each other, and there was no intersection along the way, except for the sound of the palace people saluting after seeing it, it was difficult to hear the sound of their footsteps along the way.

The road from the Imperial Garden to the Imperial Study Room was not very far, but today it seemed to be particularly long. He Lianqi seemed to be deliberately slowing down as he waited for Hao Yue who was behind him, and Hao Yue deliberately walked even slower.

Hao Yue disliked walking side by side with He Lianqi, so even if it was obvious, she wasn't afraid.

"You all wait outside!" When they arrived at the imperial study room, Helian Qi blocked all the waiters from the door, even Hongxiu and Lufu who were serving Haoyue were no exception.

This is Haoyue's first time entering the imperial study room, and it seems that there is not much difference from the ones seen on TV before. There are many memorials stacked on the desk, divided into several stacks, which should be classified. Haoyue didn't study it, just conjectured .

The room was lit with incense, although it was fragrant, it was not the smell Haoyue was familiar with, she was used to the faint and soothing smell used in Helian Ruixuan's study, she frowned slightly to express her dissatisfaction.

"Princess Rui doesn't like this place?" He Lianqi walked slowly towards the desk, took out a scroll from a shelf behind it, and seemed not very eager to know the answer to Hao Yue's question he asked.

The majesty in front of people, the pretense of gentleness in front of people, gradually disappeared as the scroll slowly unfolded, and was replaced by a kind of heaviness, heartache and sadness.

"Want to hear about Qinghou?" He Lianqi stretched out his hand, stroking the person in the portrait tremblingly.

Haoyue stepped forward and leaned over to see that the woman in the portrait was dressed in a pink and white palace dress, with an elegant smile on her delicate face, standing half squatting in the garden, her slender fingers lightly touching her body. She tapped on a purple flower, and on the back of her hand, there was a colorful butterfly.

Haoyue knew that this was the deity. With just one glance, the noble, elegant and quiet demeanor came into Haoyue's eyes. A pity flashed across her pure black eyes. Just such a woman died for the man in front of her.

"The first time I saw Qinghou was on the first day she entered the palace. At that time, she was passed down by the concubine mother." He Lianqi seemed to be lost in memories, and slowly babbled.

Hao Yue didn't bother, she really wanted to hear what He Lianqi wanted to say.

"The first time I saw Qingyu, I didn't think she was special, but because she was the daughter of the prime minister's mansion, and the concubine my mother and concubine had favored for my younger brother, so, at that time, I looked at her more. With two eyes, I will pay a lot more attention in the future."

"The next time I saw Qingyu again, it was at the father's birthday banquet. She was sitting there quietly and indifferent to the world, but she was provoked by many people. She had no choice but to dance. A dance, I will never forget Qinghou's voice at that time, it was light and unreal, and it was as agile as the beautiful butterfly in this picture scroll, even this is not enough to describe her well."

"Her dance shook my father, and the name of Qingyu came from this. At that time, I didn't think much about it. In front of all the officials and officials, I thought my father proposed marriage. I already had a concubine at that time. Both the royal father and the prime minister were a little displeased, and I said that I would marry them back as equal wives, at that time, Qinghou agreed, without waiting for the royal father and the prime minister, Qinghou agreed by himself."

"It's just that I didn't protect her well, she died." He Lianqi didn't continue talking about them, but just looked at the person in the portrait with infinite grief.

"Didn't the emperor personally order the death? I don't know why the emperor is still grieving?" Hao Yue sneered, more disdainful, since she made this decision at the beginning, it means that she has considered all the consequences.

"I regret it!" He Lianqi raised his eyes, and said tightly to Hao Yue with an expression of infinite regret, and even pinched Hao Yue's shoulder with both hands involuntarily, "Qinghou, I regret it."

Haoyue didn't break away from Helianqi, but just snorted softly, "Helianqi, it's your business if you regret it!"

What Haoyue hates the most in this world is that I regret this sentence. This is the most useless thing. Regrets can't do anything. It's better to be strong and bear all your guilt.

"I am very happy to know that you are still alive. If you want to stay in Prince Rui's residence for a while, I have no objection." He Lianqi was surprisingly gentle, as if he didn't see anything about Hao Yue's contempt, and just stated quietly with his own words.

"It's not for a while, it's for a lifetime!" Hao Yue didn't mind hitting He Lianqi hard, "Your Majesty has forgotten, right? I am Princess Rui!"

Although the deity is Helian Qi's flat wife, I'm sorry, the deity is dead, and now it is her Yu Haoyue who takes over this body, and she Yu Haoyue is Helian Ruixuan's wife. It has nothing to do with Qi half a dime!

"Qinghou, I know you will be angry, come back when you are angry, and I will clean up the previous threats. At that time, no one can threaten me to kill you again!" When He Lianqi said this , a gloomy look flashed in his eyes.

"He Lianqi, if you want to make a move, don't use me as an excuse!" Haoyue looked at Helianqi with cold eyes. In fact, Haoyue knew a long time ago that a person like Helianqi would not be held by Duke Qi's government all the time. Besides, it was still under the circumstances that Qi Yuyun gave birth to the prince.

"Qinghou, you know, I don't!" He Lianqi unconsciously tightened his hand on Haoyue's shoulder, obviously hurt by Haoyue's distrust of him.

For Helian Qi's excitement, Hao Yue didn't express much, but raised her eyes indifferently, "You hurt me, let go!"

The alienated and hard tone made He Lianqi let go of his hand.

Haoyue patted the shoulders on both sides lightly, with a look of disgust on her face, she turned around and picked up the portrait on the desk, and looked at it carefully, the imperial study room was suddenly silent, only the slight breathing of the two of them.
