The Queen sealed her heart and locked up her love, and the Emperor was trapped in the crematorium

After the news of Xie Yaoqing listening to music in Xianleju reached back to the palace, Xiao Chengxu's face instantly became extremely gloomy. He slammed down the wolf-hair brush in his hand and no longer had the heart to review the mountains of memorials.

Xianleju, Xianleju, that place is the most famous place for fireworks and entertainment in the capital, attracting countless men to linger. How can a woman go to such a place?

What kind of music did he want to listen to that he had to go to Xianleju in person? Were all the musicians and singers in the palace dead?

Xiao Chengxu frowned, his tone was obviously unhappy, and he asked coldly: "Are you sure the queen went to Xianleju? Did you see it clearly?"

The guard nodded repeatedly. How dare he talk nonsense? That was the Queen.

Xiao Chengxu took a deep breath, trying to calm his heart, but his chest still ached. He held his chest tightly, trying to restrain the anger that was about to burst out.

Never mind, I just went there to listen to some music. After all, the Queen was a woman, and Xianleju was full of women. The Queen didn't have the habit of polishing mirrors, so it was impossible for her to do something ridiculous like having an affair.

Although this was the case, Xiao Chengxu still felt a knot in his heart that he couldn't untie, and he felt very depressed. If he hadn't had to discuss state affairs with the ministers later, it would have been inconvenient for him to leave the palace. He would have left the palace to look for someone.

Feng An saw this and couldn't help but be surprised. He had followed the emperor for many years and knew the emperor's temper. Now that the empress had gone to Xianleju to have fun, how could the emperor tolerate it? Why didn't he send someone to bring the empress back immediately?

Feng'an, who was best at observing people's words and expressions, knew that the emperor was in a bad mood at the moment, so he served him even more attentively and attentively. He also secretly reminded the palace maids and eunuchs in the Qianqing Palace to serve carefully and not to anger the emperor, otherwise no one would end up well.

At one o'clock in the evening, after Xie Yaoqing came out of Xianleju, she did not return to the palace directly. Instead, she first came to Baiweilou and had a meal. After eating to her satisfaction, she began to wander around and was not in a hurry to return to the palace.

In a blink of an eye, it was three quarters after the evening, and the palace gate was about to close. If he didn't go back in time, he would have to stay outside the palace. So Xie Yaoqing slowly returned to the palace with his entourage.

As soon as she entered the gate of Kunning Palace, Xie Yaoqing saw a person standing in the yard from afar. Although it was just a back view, the familiar figure made her recognize at a glance that the other person was Xiao Chengxu.

When Xiao Chengxu learned that Xie Yaoqing had not returned to the palace until 11 p.m., he became extremely anxious and thought of leaving the palace to look for her several times, but was persuaded by Feng An every time.

The two masters were at the time of conflict, and the Empress herself did not like the Emperor very much. If the Emperor made a big fuss and sent someone to find the Empress, another quarrel would be inevitable.

Feng An felt that Xie Yaoqing was not such a mischievous person. Even if he left the palace, he would come back at a certain time and would not stay overnight outside the palace without permission. He should be back at the latest at 11 p.m., when the palace gates were locked.

From the hour of Xu, Xiao Chengxu came to Kunning Palace and waited for more than half an hour, almost an hour. During this time, his face was as gloomy as water and his expression was very unhappy. As a result, the palace servants in Kunning Palace served him tremblingly, for fear of accidentally angering the emperor.

Almost everyone believed that Xiao Chengxu came here this time to call for punishment.

For no reason, the Empress went out for an entire afternoon. This was really against the rules and not decent. It was understandable that the Emperor would be angry.

But to everyone's surprise, Xiao Chengxu was not angry, or rather, he was angry but did not show any anger.

His expression was as calm as usual, without any sign of anger or dissatisfaction, and his tone was very peaceful, even warm, "Are you back? Did you have a good time outside the palace today?"

Listening to his gentle tone, it seemed as if Xie Yaoqing was just out for a stroll, and not going to Xianleju to listen to music and enjoy herself.

Xie Yaoqing raised his eyebrows slightly, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, but it only took a moment for him to return to normal.

“Xianleju is a good place to go.”

The beautiful lady was indeed an extraordinary talent, whether playing the guzheng or singing, she was superb. Her skills were even better than those of the court singers. She was also very pretty, and just looking at her beautiful face was a delight to the eyes. Even if you didn't listen to the music, just looking at her was good.

During his trip out of the palace, Xie Yaoqing not only feasted his ears, but also feasted his eyes.

Xiao Chengxu's expression froze for a moment, but he soon regained his composure. He tried to force out a smile to cover up his loss of composure. However, after just a moment, his smile froze on his face.

Several palace servants came in carrying a cage with a dog in it.

This dog is a thin dog with a slender body. Its fur is black and white, with the white parts dotted with black spots. It has a pair of bright black eyes that are piercing and sparkling with sharp light.

Xiao Chengxu just glanced at her calmly, then quickly looked away, pretending to be nonchalant and said, "Qingqing, don't you like cats? Why do you suddenly want to have a dog?"

Indeed, compared with dogs, Xie Yaoqing prefers cats.

Before she got married, she kept a Persian cat for ten years, until the Persian cat died of natural old age.

After the Persian cat died, Xie Yaoqing was very sad for a while. Later, she never kept a cat again because she didn't want to experience the pain of loss again. However, when she occasionally came across a cat, she couldn't help but stop and take a few more glances.

Thin dogs can be used as hunting dogs and are not a rare breed. Xie Yaoqing chose this thin dog not to use it as a hunting dog, but to keep it as a pet.

"I brought it back because I liked it."

Xie Yaoqing threw down an explanation that was not really an explanation and turned back to her room. Before leaving, she did not forget to instruct the palace servants to take care of the dog, as she wanted to keep the dog in Kunning Palace in the future.

Xiao Chengxu frowned, pinched his fingertips hard, and a trace of pain flashed in his eyes.
