Immediately, Qin Shu pretended to be weak and coughed, and said softly: "If the emperor thinks it is delicious, then eat more."

"Okay." Xuanyuan Che responded, his eyes never moving away from Qin Shu. After a moment, he slowly asked: "At the beginning, I ordered you to come to Beijing, participate in the draft, and enter the palace as a concubine. For making you leave your family, do you... hate me?"

It turns out you know what I said! However, Qin Shu complained in her heart: Could it be that I can really say that? It's really annoying. She did not directly respond to Xuanyuan Che's words. She only said: "At this moment, isn't the emperor accompanying me to admire the moon? I am already the emperor's concubine. Isn't the emperor my family?"

"Seriously?" Xuanyuan Che's words were a little more excited, "Do you really think so?"

Qin Shu's reaction to Xuanyuan Che was indeed beyond her expectations once again. After thinking about it, she finally nodded and said, "That's the truth. Does your Majesty think what I said is wrong?"

"Yes, that's right. You are my wife, and I, I am your husband. We are a family."

"..." Qin Shu paused, wife? Husband? Although she entered the palace as a concubine, according to the rules, her identity was a concubine. Is this what I should say to her?

Seeing Qin Shu's sudden silence, Xuanyuan Che said directly: "What's wrong? Did I say the wrong thing?"

Qin Shu came back to her senses and said: "No, it's just what the emperor said, it seems..."

Xuanyuan Che understood her tone and the unfinished words in an instant. He said sincerely: "What I said is what I think in my heart. I said, you are different from them, you are me. The only one I choose, I kid you not.”

He was full of seriousness and continued to explain: "The queen is the daughter of the prime minister, representing the Wang family, and the concubine is the daughter of the imperial censor, representing the Zheng family. The harem is closely related to the previous dynasty. Although I ascend the throne, I sit on On this throne, but the court is not entirely under my control, everyone in the harem has different thoughts and plans, and I have never touched them."

The corner of Qin Shu's mouth twitched slightly, and she kept talking more and more deeply. She was really not interested in knowing so much. Also, what did "never touch them" mean? What explosive inside story had she heard? Suddenly, she said in a solemn voice: "Your Majesty, you should not talk to your concubines about matters involving the secrets of government affairs."

Xuanyuan Che: "Didn't you say that I am your family member and there is no need for you and me to see each other outside."

Qin Shu: "But..."

Xuanyuan Che didn't wait for her to finish her words, and said to her seriously: "I like you, only you, so I can be honest with you about anything."

"Ah?...Ahem!" Qin Shu coughed twice, her eyes full of surprise. Do you like her? Only her? Is this really a confession to her? Qin Shu really couldn't imagine where she and Xuanyuan Che came from, and how could they have such affection? You, the emperor, or the one who succeeded after going through the dangers of the seven kings to seize the throne, which one are you playing?

At that moment, Xuanyuan Che put his hand around her back, patted her gently with his broad palm, and asked with concern: "Are you okay?"

Qin Shu shook her head and glanced at Xinlian and Xinyi beside her.

Xinlian and Xinyi were standing by and listened to everything the emperor said to their master. Every word he said shocked them. Seeing this situation, they hurriedly Stepping forward, Xin Lian said: "I would like to report to your Majesty that your Majesty is weak and tonight is the Mid-Autumn Festival, so your Majesty went to bed a little late. At this time, it is time for your Majesty to go back to your bedroom to take medicine and rest."

Xuanyuan Che: "I was negligent. It is indeed very late. I will take you back to your dormitory."

Qin Shu wanted to say no, but seeing Xuanyuan Che's attitude, she didn't refuse and said softly, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Xuanyuan Che helped Qin Shu stand up and walked straight into the bedroom. When she sat down by the bed, he stood in front of her and said warmly: "It is because of my selfishness that I let you enter the palace and get involved in the harem disputes. But I promise that I will never let you down, nor will I let you get hurt in the slightest."

Qin Shu looked at Xuanyuan Che, thought for a while, and replied: "The emperor has his heart, and all his subjects and concubines are fine."

Xuanyuan Che smiled at her and said, "That's right. You are so smart. With your ability, how can those people and tricks in the harem affect you."

Qin Shushu looked at Xuanyuan Che. Regarding the person in front of her, his words and deeds seemed as if he knew everything about her, and the words he said now were even more worth pondering.

Thinking of this, Xuanyuan Che suddenly came to Yuehua Palace yesterday. She originally thought that she was pretending to be sick and was not discovered. However, looking at it now, Xuanyuan Che knew everything clearly.

However, she was truthful but couldn't figure it out. Only her family and those close to her knew about her situation. In the past, she had never revealed her identity as long as she left the house. If she had met Xuanyuan Che outside, with Xuanyuan Che being so dazzling, How could she not have the slightest impression of his existence after being exposed to it?

Knowing that she was pretending to be sick, but not exposing her, thinking that she was in the palace and her family was not around, he even made a special trip to say that he would accompany her to enjoy the moon and celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival. His actions had inadvertently affected her... Mood.

Could it be that as she thought before, Xuanyuan Che let her into the palace simply because he wanted her to become his concubine because... he liked her!

At this time, Xuanyuan Che's voice reached his ears again.

"Then, you should have a good rest. I'll leave first." Seeing Qin Shu trying to get up again, Xuanyuan Che put his hand on her shoulder to prevent her from getting up again to salute. Withdrawing his hand, he looked at the person in front of him again. Then he turned around and left. When he came, he quickly disappeared without a trace.

After Xinlian and Xinyi left, Xinlian was the first to speak, "Your Majesty, the Emperor..."

Qin Shu: "Don't say a word about what happened tonight."

Heart ripples, heart ripples: "Yes, I understand."

Xinyi thought about it and said: "Your Majesty, the Emperor said that you are the only person he has chosen. In addition to what the Emperor has said before and after, it seems that he has great trust in you. Based on this, I guess that the Emperor seems to know you very well. Will he even Are you aware of the fact that you are pretending to be sick?"

Xin Lian said smoothly: "In the past, we were always by your side. Whenever we went out, we would hide our identities. How did the emperor know the inside story?"

Qin Shu raised her eyes, glanced at the two people in front of her, and said: "Judging from what he just said, he obviously knew it. How he knew it specifically, I can't figure it out, but he didn't make it clear. It can be seen that he does not intend to investigate and investigate."

Xinlian and Xinyi looked at each other, and Xinlian asked softly, "Your Majesty once told the slaves that if you want to marry someone, you want to marry the person you love. If the Emperor treats your Majesty wholeheartedly, the Emperor is the one who truly cares about your Majesty's heart. A man?"

Qin Shu: "Okay, let's not talk about this anymore."

Xinlian and Xinyi didn't ask much. After waiting for Qin Shu to sleep, they retreated from the sleeping hall to the outer room.

Qin Shu closed her eyes, the question Xin Lian asked echoed in her mind, and she thought about it. She didn't know how long it took before she fell asleep.
