Chapter 615 You're Not Angry With Me Anymore, Are You?
After Nian Susu changed, Qin Junyu walked behind the screen with a red face.
Half an hour later.
Qin Junyu was wearing a dark blue rain flower brocade robe, with a moon white cloud brocade undershirt underneath, a pair of long boots on his feet, and a high ponytail, looking like a cynical young master from a wealthy family.
Nian Susu wore a cassia green brocade skirt that reached her chest. When Qin Junyu changed her clothes, she simply tied herself into a double bun, decorated it with two light green ribbons, and pinned it with a gold and jade butterfly hairpin. With her colorful skirt, she looked playful and cute.
Although they are of the same color, they look more like siblings...
Qin Junyu's face immediately turned dark when he realized this, and he silently remembered Axuan's serious mistake in his heart.
Nian Susu smiled at him with curved eyebrows, as if a spring breeze carrying the scent of green grass. Her expression and movements did not seem like that of a queen in charge of the harem, but just the daughter of an ordinary family.
Qin Junyu's breathing became disordered. He walked hurriedly to the desk, fumbled for a while and opened a mechanism. A small grid popped out from under the desk. He took out a golden butterfly mask from it and put it on.
Nian Susu walked forward a few steps and looked at him carefully. Why did he dress so mysteriously when leaving the palace?
Even if he wasn't in disguise, few people would recognize him, right?
Seeing the confusion in her eyes, Qin Junyu did not explain, but turned around with a red face, "Okay...Okay, come with me."
He walked towards the bookshelf, pressed the mechanism, and with a "click", the bookshelf turned, leaving a small opening that was only big enough for one person to pass through.
Nian Susu pretended to be surprised and stared at the bookshelf in amazement, but did not ask anything because she was still angry with him.
Qin Junyu went in first, then motioned for her to follow.
As soon as the bookshelf was closed, the secret passage was plunged into pitch darkness.
Nian Susu is actually not afraid of the dark, but if it is so dark that she can't see anything, she will feel extremely insecure and be swallowed by huge fear.
She tried to stretch her arms and grope forward, but touched nothing. Her legs felt like they were filled with lead and she couldn't move.
The smell of cedar suddenly filled her nose, and her hand was grasped by a big hand.
"Hold me tight."
"There are no lights on the first half of the road, and the terrain is complex, so it's easy to get lost."
She said "hmm".
The surroundings were very quiet, and the footsteps of the two were not synchronized, but these movements made Nian Susu feel at ease. And...his warm palm also made her less afraid.
Perhaps to make the atmosphere less heavy, or to divert his own attention, Nian Suzhu took the initiative to bring up the topic: "Where are you taking me?" His tone was still dry.
Qin Junyu: "You don't remember?"
Nian Susu was confused and said unhappily, “I don’t even know how I can remember it?”
I am most afraid of the sudden silence in the air...
Qin Junyu said in a gloomy tone after a while: "I don't know who asked me to take her to attend the Tianxuan Villa's new member recruitment meeting on the carriage back to Beijing. It's only been a short time, and you forgot it?"
Hearing this, Nian Susu's eyes widened, and the hand that was holding his tightened, her tone unable to conceal her excitement: "Really?! You want to take me to Tianxuan Villa?!"
"How could this be false?" Qin Junyu curled his lips arrogantly.
He had made all the preparations for this, and he kept every word she said in mind.
Haven't I been planning for so long just to hear her surprised voice at this moment?
Qin Junyu's mouth curled up.
She was naturally happy to be able to leave the palace, but after calming down, she had to consider a question: "But... you are the emperor, what if you sneak out like this and get discovered?"
Besides, Qin Junyu is so busy every day and spends almost half of the day in the Yangxin Palace. How can he have time to leave the palace when he is busy with official duties?
Qin Junyu pinched her knuckles and said, "Don't worry, I have already considered these issues."
"Three days ago, I started pretending to be sick. Several times, I was shaky in front of the ministers, as if I was about to collapse! However, with my strong will and love for government affairs, I held on!"
"The ministers were extremely worried and urged me to rest, rest, and rest... Today I did as they wished. I first invited the imperial physician to the Palace of Prayer for Good Harvests, and then asked Lin Shoude to inform them in advance that they would not attend court and would not see anyone for the next three days."
"With the foreshadowing from the previous few days, they will only feel that I am sick from working so hard for the country."
Qin Junyu shook his head and sighed, smacking his lips and exclaiming that he was simply unparalleled in the world.
After hearing this, Nian Susu burst out laughing, "Hahaha... I didn't expect you would do such a thing?"
What’s the difference between this and pretending to be sick at school and asking for leave from the teacher to go out and play?
This kind of thing is not uncommon, but when it happens to Qin Junyu, it becomes funny and magical.
"That's all for you..." Qin Junyu muttered aggrievedly.
There was light ahead, and Nian Susu saw hope. His uneasy mood finally calmed down.
She raised her eyes and saw Qin Junyu's profile. The dim candlelight shone on his face, leaving a dividing line between light and dark. She couldn't see his expression under the butterfly mask, but she could clearly see the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
She also smiled and secretly complained: You are a good human being!
Qin Junyu suddenly stopped, turned around, and started holding her hands with both.
In the narrow secret passage and dim environment, the two looked at each other and could clearly hear their own heartbeats gradually speeding up.
Nian Susu nervously rolled his throat and stammered, "What... are you doing?"
Qin Junyu's eyes were sincere. The eternally burning lamp inlaid in the stone wall burned and flickered in his eyes. He opened his thin lips slightly: "Lingling, please don't be angry with me, okay?"
"I'll listen to whatever you say and I won't confront you anymore. You can hit me and scold me, but don't ignore me..." His voice was tinged with grievance.
Although his voice was not loud, the secret passage was a closed structure and the surrounding area was empty, so his voice was amplified several times in his ears. Nian Susu stared at him and did not answer immediately.
Qin Junyu was nervous and uneasy.
After a long while, Nian Susu said, "Take off your mask and I will tell you the answer."
Qin Junyu took off the mask without hesitation.
His face beneath the mask was red and hot. He didn't dare to look her in the eyes, so he had to turn his face slightly to the side.
Suddenly, a gust of wind blew up——
Nian Susu grabbed his arms, stood on tiptoe, and gave him a light kiss on the face.
The speed was too fast, and before Qin Junyu could react, she had already stopped and lowered her head as if nothing had happened.
Her expression was very calm, and Qin Junyu even wondered if the kiss just now was just an illusion?
He reached out and touched his face, which was still warm. This was real!
"So... you are not angry with me anymore, right?" Qin Junyu couldn't hide his excitement, but he was not very confident.
"Lingling, have you forgiven me?" he asked again.
