The Emperor was kissed by the Regent and cried again

Gu Sichen took the porcelain bottle and nodded in response.

"However... this matter should not be made public for the time being. Even if the poison is cured, they must be sent to the capital according to the actual number of poisoned people. I have other plans."

Gu Sichen smiled warmly: "Your Majesty still trusts me so much? Are you willing to hand the antidote to me?"

He looked at Shen Jingli, and the smile in his eyes became even more intense. In fact, even though the emperor had Qin Yejue, he still valued him as much as before.

"..."

Qin Yejue endured for a long time without saying anything, but when he heard Gu Sichen's self-conceited remarks, he finally couldn't bear it anymore!

It's really uncomfortable to pretend to be generous!!

The look in Gu Sichen's eyes when he looked at Shen Jingli was really not innocent. Qin Yejue's face suddenly darkened. At this moment, he really wanted to gouge out Gu Sichen's eyes!

She doesn't want to live anymore, right? She dares to flirt with Shen Jingli in front of him. This seductive man must be guarded against. They must not be left alone.

Even if Shen Jingli had admired him before, things were different now and he should give up! !

Qin Yejue's eyes were dark. He put his arm around Shen Jingli's shoulders and said in a cold voice, "Don't talk about trust or not. The emperor came to Xixu City secretly. If he didn't order you to try, does he want the emperor to go there in person?!"

"..."

Shen Jingli was speechless for a moment. Why did Qin Yejue speak so harshly? Did he understand what it meant to use both kindness and force? !

She said: "The Gu family is loyal and their ancestors have been loyal for generations. I believe... people who are educated in such a background will definitely be loyal and courageous."

The people of Xue Rui Country had already contacted Gu Sichen privately, and he was willing to tell them everything, which showed that his position was firm and clear!

It is better to praise his entire family than to just praise him.

After hearing this, Gu Sichen bowed to show his loyalty: "Your Majesty, thank you for your praise. Protecting the monarch is the mission of the Gu family."

He thought of Shen Jingli's frustration at staying beside Qin Yejue, and choked up a little, "But... we didn't do well. The emperor was bullied before, and now he is living outside and suffering a lot of grievances."

Gu Sichen's eyes were moist: "Your Majesty, we... deserve to die!"

Qin Yejue inexplicably felt that this passage was somewhat familiar, and he had a doubt in his mind, could it be that Gu Sichen had also read the book "How to Arouse the Protective Desire of Women in the Great Abyss"! ?

Seeing that Qin Yejue was about to explode, Shen Jingli took the lead and said, "Gu Aiqing...! It's not true. I'll say it again, I volunteered, really!!"

Even though Shen Jingli spoke sincerely, in Gu Sichen's heart, he always believed that... Shen Jingli was afraid of Qin Yejue, so he didn't dare to tell the truth!

……

Seeing that it was getting late, Shen Jingli said, "Gu Aiqing, we are leaving first."

After saying that, she stood up, and Qin Yejue also stood up and held Shen Jingli's hand tightly.

Gu Sichen saw the two holding hands, very affectionate, he was dazed for a moment, the emperor and the regent are really a perfect match...

After having this thought, he shook his head vigorously to stop thinking about it!

Gu Sichen watched the two people's backs as they walked away, his heart in agony. He shouted, "Your Majesty! Can we talk in private? There are some things that I have kept in my heart for a long time."

His voice trembled slightly: "I really...lived in regret for a time."

Shen Jingli probably guessed what was going on, so it was better to talk it out so as not to ruin Gu Sichen's future.

……

Shen Jingli looked up at Qin Yejue and shook his sleeve: "Go wait for me outside..."

Qin Yejue naturally didn't want to do that. There were too many uncontrollable factors when the two of them were alone. He was mainly afraid that Shen Jingli would get hurt.

"No."

Shen Jingli's face tightened, and he tried to act coquettishly, "Ajue... just for a moment."

"..."

"Ajue, as long as you agree, I will give you a reward tonight."

Qin Yejue held Shen Jingli's hand tighter. He shook his head, "No reward, you must be within my sight."

"..."

Seeing that Qin Yejue was unmoved, Shen Jingli said, "Humph, if you don't agree, we'll sleep in separate rooms tonight!"

Hearing this, Qin Yejue immediately surrendered. He said helplessly: "Don't talk too long. If necessary, you can use the Moon-Lanling Bracelet."

The Moon-Grabbing Bracelet was revealed? It turns out that Qin Yejue was afraid that Gu Sichen had bad intentions towards him.

But... she knew very well that Gu Sichen was not an outlaw. He was gentle and easy-going, and would never do anything despicable.

She said: "No problem, I will be fully prepared!"

Qin Yejue looked at Gu Sichen deeply, with a warning in his eyes, and then he left the private room.

……

Shen Jingli walked towards the mahogany bench. As soon as she sat down, Gu Sichen couldn't wait to say, "Your Majesty, I didn't make a positive promise to you at the beginning because... I wanted to be with you after I had achieved a certain level of success!"

After he finished speaking, the heavy weight on Gu Sichen's heart finally fell to the ground, and he finally spoke out his true feelings! !

At the beginning, Shen Jingli said in the letter... that he was the most elegant and easy-going person she had ever met, and asked... if he could take her away from the palace.

She also said... that she wanted to marry him with a phoenix crown and a red bridal robe...

Because of this sentence, Gu Sichen once doubted whether Shen Jingli was a woman. He expected Shen Jingli to confess to him on her own initiative, but that day never came.

To the extent that... he thought this sentence might be a joke. It was not until today, when Shen Jingli put on the Luo skirt, that Gu Sichen truly confirmed her identity as a woman.

So, even though he knew that Shen Jingli was a girl, he was not too surprised, because before... Shen Jingli had already hinted to him.

……

Shen Jingli expressed his true feelings through a love letter, and every word was sincere. His heart was not made of stone, so how could he not be touched?

Gu Sichen thought... she was the new top scholar, and if she was too close to the emperor, it would definitely tarnish her reputation.

He had already known Shen Jingli's feelings from his ninety-nine love letters. Shen Jingli's love was passionate and straightforward, and definitely not a flash in the pan.

Gu Sichen naively thought...even if he resigned first and kept a distance from Shen Jingli for the time being, it shouldn't be a big deal.

She will understand...

After all... they have a long way to go.

By chance, he was reinstated, and since then he has been with Shen Jingli for some time.

Gu Sichen discovered that Shen Jingli was not as cowardly and incompetent as the rumors said. She was not a useless person with only beautiful looks.

The huge contrast between Shen Jingli and Gu Sichen made him fall deeply in love and he could no longer extricate himself...

After she rejected Shen Jingli, her personality began to change drastically and she became a completely different person.

What Gu Sichen never expected was... Qin Yejue also got involved. He treated Shen Jingli, whose temperament had changed drastically, as his private property and bullied him however he wanted!

Shen Jingli dared not disobey due to Qin Yejue's tyranny.

……

Whenever he saw Shen Jingli being humble around Qin Yejue, his heart ached. He always felt that… he was largely responsible for the situation turning out this way! !
