Stunning Phoenix Emperor

Chapter 238

Looking down, I saw Qin Yue nestled obediently in her arms, resting her head on her arm, leaning lightly on her shoulder, with her eyes closed tightly, she couldn't see the usually harsh evil spirit, as if her temperament had become docile. At least, with such a peaceful posture, it doesn't look like an evil star no matter what.
Although it was not the first time that she slept together overnight, but that time in Shuoyue, the people who struggled and suffered all night were full of embarrassment and fatigue, and usually, when she woke up, Qin Yue was no longer by her side. His martial arts won't alarm him at all.
This was the first time she saw such a peaceful sleeping face, which made her a little bit reluctant to be alarmed.
It's a pity that there was an assassination incident last night. Although the empress has announced that she is unwell and that she will call it quits today, it's not the time to sleep in.The dismissal was just for others to see. On the one hand, it was to put pressure on the officials of the Ministry of Punishment;
"Dong dong dong!" At this moment, someone knocked lightly on the door.
"Has your Highness woke up?" After a while, a hesitant voice came from outside the door.
Ah San or Ah Si?Su Hanxiao was a little unclear.
"What's the matter?" Qin Yue still kept her eyes closed, but said three words coldly.
"My lord, Brother Qi Xian sent someone over to say that His Majesty summoned His Highness the Empress Dowager." The man outside the door said.
"Understood, come in." Qin Yue said, sitting up by herself, first took out the small box next to the pillow, took out the contact lenses and put them on.
"The wine this early in the morning does not make people safe." Su Hanxiao lamented.
"I heard everything, get up quickly." Qin Yue pushed her.
"Got it." Su Hanxiao sat up wrapped in the quilt and rubbed his eyes.
"See Your Majesty the Empress Dowager." Two teenagers came in with hot water and other toilet utensils and court clothes.
"Serve the princess to change clothes." Qin Yue said lightly, and she had already dressed neatly.
"Yes." Ah San put down the wooden basin, twisted up the silk scarf, Ah Si came over and shook off the crimson palace dress, and helped Su Hanxiao put it on.
After rinsing his mouth and wiping his face, an exquisite breakfast was already set on the table.
In the past, when Su Hanxiao spent the night in Xizhu Garden, she never saw anyone in the morning. She would go back to her bedroom early in the morning to have breakfast. Today...she looked at Qin Yue with a cold face, and shrugged again.
Although King Mu is not good at teaching, the men he has trained are really good at serving others.
"Okay, go out." Qin Yue said.
"Yes." The two teenagers paused, and their gazes were full of resentment, jealousy, unwillingness, and other expressions.
Su Hanxiao sat down, filled the porridge, and pushed a bowl over.
Qin Yue glanced at her, but didn't speak, the two just faced each other, eating quietly.
From time to time, Su Hanxiao raised her head to look at the person across from her. For some reason, she suddenly felt that Qin Yue today seemed a little different from usual.Obviously it looks the same, but... Maybe it's a feeling?
"Assassin last night, what are you going to do?" Qin Yue suddenly asked.
"What should I do?" Su Hanxiao froze for a moment, unable to understand what he meant for a while.
"The empress summoned you at this time, I'm afraid she wants you to take charge of this matter." Qin Yue said.
"Uh..." Su Hanxiao froze immediately.
Indeed, she was originally responsible for receiving the Southern Chu envoys, but now that something like this happened, it is really possible for the empress to simply hand over the case to her for investigation.After all, this is a situation where the war will restart if something goes wrong, and the marriage will become a disaster... Huh?etc!
"What's wrong?" Qin Yue asked when she noticed her complexion changed drastically.
"Hey, Yue, tell me... can this marriage still be done?" Su Hanxiao said with a sullen face.
"If the real culprit can be found out in a short time and the case can be closed smoothly, it shouldn't affect the marriage." Qin Yue thought for a while and said, "But if it takes too long, the ambiguity, or even something else happens during the period Let alone a marriage, it is a good thing if there is no war."
"Then, would anyone wish so?" Su Hanxiao asked again.
"You suspect...Mu Wang?" Qin Yue quickly realized.
"Although she looks like she's watching the show from the sidelines, it's hard to say." Su Hanxiao sneered slightly, "I couldn't find the assassin, and I messed up King Ning's wedding, and incidentally, I, who was in charge of receiving the mission, was also implicated. No matter how you look at it, she is the only one who will benefit in the end."
"The last assassination was only a few months ago, right?" Qin Yue said calmly, "If the assassin is found out so soon, even if there is only a slight relationship, what you will face is the queen's monstrous anger. Do you think...she can So bold as to be desperate?"
"I don't think the assassin has anything to do with her." Su Hanxiao shook her head and said, "Even if she wanted to, the people in the Jiange beside her would not let her do such stupid things, not to mention that the assassin really wanted to assassinate the queen , one will be fatal.”
"Then what do you mean, although King Mu has nothing to do with the assassin, but for the sake of benefit afterwards, he will probably obstruct the investigation?" Qin Yue frowned.
"So... I don't want to take over this mess..." Su Hanxiao sighed and put his hand on his forehead.
"The emperor's life is difficult." Qin Yue said disdainfully, looked at her, and added, "Since that's the case, it's okay to drag them into the water together."
"That's right." Su Hanxiao tilted his head and thought for a while, then his expression relaxed again.
Forget it, now that she cares so much about what to do, maybe she is just worrying about it herself. It's better to take one step at a time. Anyway... the boat will go straight when it reaches the bridge.
"Empress Feng and the hidden guards, watch out for me." Su Hanxiao put down his chopsticks, and warned again.
