The General is Pregnant: His Majesty Abstinence and Sexual Devotion Every Night

Chapter 244 Yongan Street

There was some noise not far away, but the surrounding vision was a little dim. Gu Junqing followed the sounds and looked elsewhere.

There was nothing special here. After a quick glance, Gu Junqing focused her attention on Qi Yunjin. He didn't look back, but walked in front and led the way. His expression and movements revealed his concentration. She didn't know how to start talking. After all, before coming here, she was holding the emperor's sleeve, but now she was being led by the emperor by the right hand.

The warmth of his palm came from the way he held the back of her hand, dry and warm. Gu Junqing's fingers moved unnaturally. Although she didn't hate this unintentional closeness, she still felt uncomfortable.

However, seeing that Qi Yunjin had no intention of letting go, or seemed not to have noticed this detail, Gu Junqing had no choice but to let Qi Yunjin be like this.

She was thinking about something but didn't show it. Qi Yunjin held Gu Junqing's hand and wanted to take them to their destination as soon as possible, so he didn't turn around to look at her.

Even if he discovered something, she had already held his hand, so why would she let go immediately? Why not just pretend that she didn't know?

Even though this place is close to Yong'an Street, the most bustling and prosperous street in Beijing, it is still deserted and quiet, which shows how remote this road is.

After the three of them had completely come out of here, Gu Junqing raised his eyes and focused his gaze in front of him.

She looked around in a daze, and then said to Qi Yunjin: "So the place where I came out of the palace is in this tailor shop."

After saying this, Gu Junqing looked at the tailor shop owner who was standing not far away and bowing to them. He glanced at the man's wrist, where there was a black tattoo. He suddenly realized that the owner was also a prison warden. Qi Yunjin just nodded slightly and didn't look at him. He took Gu Junqing's hand and was about to leave the shop.

Gu Junqing shrank her fingertips in embarrassment. She did not miss the flash of surprise in that person's eyes when he looked at her hands clasped with the emperor's. She felt extremely embarrassed in her heart, so she could not bear it any longer and moved her five fingers, trying to break free from the emperor's palm.

Qi Yunjin noticed her intention to let go, he didn't say anything, but just held his hand tighter, frowned and pinched Gu Junqing's round and slightly cute pink fingertips, as if telling her not to move and be honest.

Gu Junqing was so confused by the emperor's natural action that she didn't know what to say. Seeing him like this, she simply didn't bother to pay attention to this little detail.

Although Gu Junqing was raised as a man since she was a child, she seldom had close ties with other men and could become close friends with them. Even on the northwest border, she maintained a superior-subordinate relationship with the soldiers, neither too close nor too distant. Therefore, she did not know much about how men should get along with each other.

She didn't think much about the emperor's action, and just regarded it as the emperor's appreciation of her.

Although this appreciation made him feel uncomfortable, Gu Junqing was still very happy to be valued and trusted by the emperor.

Thinking of this, she felt relieved that the emperor was holding her hand.

Both of them had their own ideas, but Li Yuan, who was watching these actions from behind, always felt that something was wrong.

Don’t you think it’s a bit effeminate for two grown men to hold hands?!

Or do you feel nothing is wrong or uncomfortable? !

Li Yuan fixed his gaze on Qi Yunjin and looked at the smile on his lips. He always felt that there was some satisfaction and pleasure in that smile.

Li Yuan felt that he might have been thinking in the wrong direction, and his thoughts were a bit scary. The three of them walked out of the dark and narrow alley and came to Yong'an Street.

Yong'an Street was lively at night, even more lively than Yongchao Street where the two of them visited last time. After all, a new arch bridge was built above the Pingyun River a few years ago.

Li Yuan felt a little aggrieved. The pace of the two men holding hands suddenly quickened, and he, with his poor short legs, almost couldn't keep up. Then he was discovered by the emperor, who told him directly that he didn't need to follow them and should just wait for them in front.

Because the emperor wants to take General Gu for a stroll on Yong'an Street.

It was just because General Gu accidentally said that he had not been to Yong'an Street for a long time.

He looked back every few steps as he watched the two men wandering freely in the crowd. He felt sour in his heart and had the urge to curse. Li Yuan turned around and stopped looking. At least he managed to restrain himself.

Gu Junqing had indeed rarely been to Yong'an Street. The previous two times he went there with the emperor, they were both on Yongchao Street. After all, it was a little closer to his general's mansion.

It's a bit far from here.

As for strolling here with the emperor now, Gu Junqing thought that it was a bit inappropriate. The emperor just told her that he wanted to go to a place to let her see the world, instead of standing here and strolling. Although she wanted to see the arch bridge of Yong'an Street, she was more curious about what the emperor mentioned about seeing the world.

When the emperor asked her if she wanted to take a look around the place, she didn't take it to heart. She just casually said that she hadn't been here for a long time. She didn't expect that the emperor would want to accompany her.

Now she watched Li Yuan being driven away by the emperor. For a moment, they were alone. Even though she felt something was wrong, she couldn't put her finger on it. She could only let the emperor hold her hand and walk around the area again.

Fortunately, it was not the first time for Gu Junqing to go shopping with the emperor, so he did not feel nervous or restrained. As for Qi Yunjin holding Gu Junqing's hand, it was also blocked by their long sleeves, and if you don't look closely, you can't see what the two hands are doing.

She didn't know where to go, but seeing that the emperor was so excited and seemed to have forgotten what they had agreed to do, she felt helpless, but couldn't bear to ruin the emperor's rare interest. She glanced at the arch bridge not far away, and couldn't help pointing to the location of the opposite arch bridge and suggested:

"Your Majesty, let's go over there and take a look."

Qi Yunjin looked in the direction of Gu Junqing's finger and saw that her eyes were bright and she seemed very interested in that place. He curled the corners of his lips, nodded, and naturally followed her.

"Go, go."

Actually, this arch bridge has some history. Originally, there was no arch bridge here, just an ordinary shabby stone bridge with pits all over the ground.

It was a place where the late emperor met a beauty at a small stall by the bridge while on a secret visit, and took the beauty as his concubine.

The concubine was initially favored by the emperor, and the emperor gave her whatever she wanted.

It is said that one day, this beauty casually said that she did not like the ordinary stone bridge on Yong'an Street, and her words were full of complaints about how bad the stone bridge was.

Upon hearing this, the late emperor immediately issued an order to send people to build an arch bridge.

Arch bridges were the popular type of bridge in the capital at that time.
