The Evil King Loves Lightly: Xiao Chong Doctor Concubine

Chapter 283 Portrait of Empress Jing
Chapter 283 Portrait of Empress Jing
Qiqi didn't know what to say, how could she be so delicate?
It's just because I know that Duanmu Qingqing has been staring at her behind her all the time. Although she is not resentful, that kind of envious and sad gaze is also uncomfortable.

She didn't want to face her all the time, just to make people misunderstand.

But now it is like this, I am afraid that after this "hug", it will not be misunderstood.

This villa is full of shadow guards, what the senior brother has done to her now, I am afraid that it will spread throughout the villa in a short time. Soon, everyone knows that the villa owner has brought back a little lover when he came back here...

Rubbing the sour brows, she pursed her thin lips and stopped talking.

This misunderstanding is a bit big.

When Chu Jiangnan returned to the Wuxia Pavilion, Duanmuqiong immediately took two of his servants to the next room to clean up. Actually, there was nothing to clean up, but the guests came, and even according to the current situation, it is very likely that they will be Duan Muqiong, their future owner's wife, did not dare to be careless at all.

Chu Jiangnan directly carried Qi Qi back to his dormitory and let her sit on the soft chair.

"Tired?" he asked.

Qiqi just wanted to roll her eyes, but she held back.

She shook her head, looked up at him, muttered her red lips in displeasure, "Senior brother did it on purpose."

A person who practiced martial arts just grabbed her, how could he really lose his sense of control and not know how to control it?

He pulled her over with all his strength, maybe he even expected to knock Duanmu Qingqing out, right?
He doesn't like Duanmu Qingqing.

Chu Jiangnan's eyes were soft, but he just walked to the side and sat down without speaking.

"Even if you don't like them, don't use me to act in a play. I don't want to offend women." Does he know that the most poisonous woman's heart is?A woman who is blinded by jealousy is terrible, what if Duanmu Qingqing wants her to take revenge?
It's easy to hide a sharp spear, but hard to defend against a hidden arrow. If it's not necessary, she doesn't want to add a little bit of hatred to herself.

Although, thinking like this seems to make people think too badly.

"When did I use you to act in a play?" He deliberately pulled her over, because Duanmu Qingqing had been walking beside him, and he was somewhat resistant to the smell of powder, which was why he felt uncomfortable.

But where does the term "acting" come from?

Qi Qi just pursed her lips and didn't speak.

Well, senior brother really felt sorry for her just now and was afraid that she would be tired. He is not a black-bellied man, and he will not have so many spoiled hearts. She is too careful.

But..."Senior brother really doesn't like that Duanmu girl? I think she looks pretty, she is delicate and delicate, and she is gentle and gentle. You can tell that she is a gentle woman at a glance. Why don't senior brothers like her?"

Such a woman, walking on the street, I don’t know how many men’s eyes will be attracted. Even if she was resentful in her heart just now, she didn’t really look at her with resentful eyes. She just grieved alone. Such a docile girl, The years are really numbered.

"Brother?"

"It's not a matter of liking it or not, it's just that I never thought of going with a girl." There was no need for him to tell lies in front of her, because of this, he would subconsciously stay away from all girls.

Qi Qi didn't understand at first, but after she raised her head to meet his gaze and caught a glimpse of the dimness in his eyes, she remembered what he had said.

My life is not long, why bother to harm a good girl?

Brother... In fact, it must have been very hard all these years, right?

"Where are we going to eat later?" She asked suddenly.

Chu Jiangnan raised his handsome thick eyebrows, but still couldn't keep up with her leaping thinking, and said after a while: "I'll go to the main hall later, come back the first day today, and have dinner with Butler Duanmu's family."

Seeing that she didn't speak, he said: "If you don't like it, we can also go directly to Wuxia Pavilion..."

"I like it, why don't you like it?" Hearing this, Qiqi immediately put on a smile, and said with a smile: "I also want to try the cooking skills of the villa chef, when will the dinner be served?"

"Wait for a while, Duanmuqiong will come to invite us." Unable to see the look in her eyes, he gave up, wanted to pick up the tea that was poured by someone just now, and said back just as his fingertips touched the rim of the cup.

Qiqi smiled and said: "I'll get you some scented tea later, it's better than drinking tea leaves. You won't get better from this disease for a while, and you really have to quit tea."

Chu Jiangnan didn't speak, nor did he refute her words that "it won't get better in a while".

These people seem to be sure that he will accept their treatment, and they are making preparations silently. Even when Qiqi went to that different time and space, she also told her other senior brother what kind of "chair" she wanted, what kind of "chair" It was probably prepared to save him.

He thought, even if he was not happy at that time, would they find a way to knock him unconscious and throw him on her hospital bed?
At least, Brother Four will be the first to attack him...

It's not that I really don't want to live, it's just that I'm afraid that if I lie down, I won't be able to open my eyes again.

He would rather see the world more and do more things than die under Qiqi's knife.

If she dies under her knife, she will not survive, and the royal family will not let her go. Does this girl understand?
He didn't speak, Qiqi stood up, walked around in his bedroom by himself, observing the layout of the room.

There are a few picture scrolls hanging on the wall. Although they seem to be drawn randomly, the majestic atmosphere in them is easy for people to see at a glance.

"The person who painted these paintings must be a passionate person." She walked over, put her long finger on one of the paintings, and gently traced the lines in the painting with her fingertips.

"I'm afraid you're going to read it wrong this time." Chu Jiangnan stood up, walked behind her, and admired the scrolls with her, "The person who painted these paintings happened to be a heartless person."

"It's just that the world looks ruthless." She didn't ask who made these paintings, but after seeing the poem at the bottom of the scroll, she had already guessed it.

She only knew that his pen and ink were beautiful, but she didn't know that his paintings were also so superb. This senior brother... There are too many surprises waiting for her to discover, such a perfect man, if he is really young It should be such a pity to pass away.

Looking at one painting after another along the wall, his eyes suddenly fell on one of them.

This painting is different from the other scrolls. The other paintings are all landscape paintings, but the one in front of me is a portrait of a young and beautiful girl.

Although it is a black and white pen and ink painting, the soft and heroic lines on the face are lifelike, and her eyes, the eyes with a faint sadness in the silence, are so expressive in his pen.

She is so beautiful and has such a temperament, but these are not what surprised her the most. What shocked her was that the facial features of this woman were so familiar. Where did she see them?

Seeing her sinking eyes clearly thinking about something, Chu Jiangnan's eyes glowed with light of joy, and the corners of his lips couldn't help evoking a stunning smile: "Guess, who is the person in this painting?"

Qiqi couldn't help but looked up at the scroll again, the more she looked, the more she felt that the woman's features were familiar, but she could be sure that she had never seen her before.

The appearance is so familiar, unless it is extremely similar to someone she knows... Could it be...

She turned around and looked at him abruptly, exclaiming: "Is she the Queen Jing from back then?"

She is... Chu Xuanchi's mother queen?
But why is her picture scroll here?What does the No. [-] village in the world have to do with Chu Xuanchi?
She didn't notice that her little hands hidden in the sleeves were constantly clenched. Looking at the woman in the painting, thinking of her beauty and charm back then, her heart tightened suddenly.

Perhaps, only such a beautiful woman can give birth to such a stunning man as Prince Xuan.

She always thought that Chu Xuanchi was so outstanding because he was born in the emperor's family, because of the excellent genes of the royal family, but now it seems that he is more like his mother than his father.

The first time she saw the portrait of Empress Jing, she felt an indescribable excitement, as if she was standing right in front of her, facing the picture scroll, she suddenly became serious.

Chu Jiangnan's big palm landed on her head, gently rubbed her hair, and said warmly: "It is indeed Empress Jing, the queen mother of Brother Four."

"Then she..." She had heard that Empress Jing died of illness that year, but she had guessed from Chu Xuanchi's nonsense babbled by the cold poison that the events of that year would never have been spread to the outside world like that. Simple.

Chu Xuanchi had always been brooding over the death of his mother's empress. There must be some royal conspiracy behind the death of Empress Jing.

I just feel sorry for the terrible pressure he had to endure at such a young age. How did he survive all these years?

"You'd better ask the fourth brother directly about Empress Jing." If he wanted to talk, he added in his mind.

Seeing the flickering disappointment in her eyes, he said softly: "Father has always been brooding over Empress Jing's death, whether he said he had other thoughts or nostalgia, since Empress Jing died of illness, After that, no one in the palace dared to mention the matter of Empress Jing anymore, even all the portraits used by Empress Jing during her lifetime were destroyed by the order of her father, this painting..."

Raising his head, his eyes fell on the woman in the painting together with Qi Qi, and there was something in his eyes: "This is what I drew from memory later, because I can't take it back to the palace, so I can only put it here, and pay tribute to it occasionally. fan."

"You... your relationship with Empress Jing..." Qi Qi could actually hear the loopholes in his words, but he also said just now that if she wanted to know anything about Empress Jing, she could directly ask Chu Xuanchi.

She knew that no matter how she asked, he would definitely not answer, and Chu Xuanchi...

His mother and concubine are the biggest taboo in his heart, and he will never say a single word about her to her.

"Empress Jing and my mother and concubine were good friends who talked about everything. It is because of this that I have been close to the fourth brother since we were young. Empress Jing is also very good to me. I respect her as I respect my mother and concubine."

His eyes slowly swept over the lines of the woman's face in the painting, feeling a little yearning and a little indescribably sad.

Qiqi could see it, but couldn't see it through.

I always feel that the portrait of Empress Jing will appear here, there must be other reasons, pay tribute...why do I always feel weird?
