Chapter 272 Vomiting
They've been through so much together.
Including the previous appearance of the fake Su Qingqing, Rong Que was able to discuss matters of state with her in a frank manner.
But this time...
If Rong Que came back with the same expression as always, if he didn't have too many emotions, but instead came in to hug and kiss her, and during dinner, he talked about this matter as if it were a troublesome matter from the court, perhaps she would feel better?
Su Qingqing didn't know.
She only knew that at this moment, Rong Que was holding her like this, and even cried when talking about this matter, and she felt as if needles were crawling through her heart.
After Rong Que finished speaking, Su Qingqing said nothing.
She didn't want to express her opinion, nor did she want to pretend to be magnanimous. Even if Princess Da Qi said that it was just a fake marriage, she didn't want to accept it.
But she didn't want to influence Rong Que because of herself.
In this matter, he has the final say on how to make the decision. She can influence it temporarily, but not forever.
After a long time, Rong Que let out a deep breath, kissed Su Qingqing's neck and earlobe, and finally stood up and rubbed the top of Su Qingqing's head, "Ask the kitchen to prepare the meal, you can eat with me, I'm going to go wash up first, I'm so dirty."
Neither of them mentioned the matter again.
Su Qingqing asked Jixiang to serve the meal. Jixiang went reluctantly. She had just been waiting outside and heard everything Rongque said inside.
What does Rongque mean?
Is she waiting for her master to make the decision?
Damn!
What the hell!
Just put some poison in the soup and kill him!
When Rong Que changed into casual clothes and came out, there were already four dishes and a soup on the small table, but only one set of bowls and chopsticks. He raised his eyebrows, "Don't you want to eat something?"
Su Qingqing laughed, "I ate too much last night and I haven't digested it yet."
As she said this, she yawned, "If it wasn't for digestion, I would have gone to bed earlier."
Rong Que patted Su Qingqing on the head and said, "I thought you were waiting for me."
Su Qingqing smiled and pinched his waist. "Why am I waiting for you? Today is just your coronation ceremony, and there are not many court affairs. Tomorrow you will have a formal morning court to review memorials and discuss court affairs. I don't know how busy this day will be. Who knows when you can come back? If I wait for you every day, I will be exhausted to death."
As she spoke, she sat down opposite Rong Que, holding her chin with her hand, and said cheerfully, "When will my Pepper Room be ready? I'll move in when it's ready, so you don't have to run around every day."
Rong Que looked at Su Qingqing and was silent for a while, "You...are not angry with me because of Princess Daqi's matter?"
Su Qingqing suppressed her discomfort and said with a smile, "Why are you angry? You didn't invite her here, so why should I be angry? Besides, she herself said that it was a fake marriage, not a real one. We even earned a dowry for nothing, so why should I be angry?"
Having said this, the atmosphere became lively and Su Qingqing couldn't help but say a few more words.
“Actually, I feel a little uncomfortable.”
Rong Que didn't dare to move and just looked straight at Su Qingqing, afraid of missing any expression on her face.
Su Qingqing said, "I thought you wouldn't take this matter too seriously. I thought you would be very angry or tell me about it as a joke. I didn't expect you to react so strongly."
Having just let go of Su Qingqing to go to the bathroom to wash up, Rong Que leaned against the door and was lost in thought for a long time.
The reason why he hugged Su Qingqing and said those words was that he wanted to know her most direct reaction from Su Qingqing's body reaction. She clearly felt that when he mentioned the Princess of Da Qi, Su Qingqing stiffened.
But after he finished telling the whole story, Su Qingqing didn't say a word.
Why not say it?
Is it because she is disappointed in him that she doesn't say it, or is it because she wants to follow Su Heng back to Zhao Kingdom that she doesn't say it.
At that time, Rong Que was so scared and panicked that he dared not say anything.
He was too afraid of losing this person.
He was so afraid of losing someone he had been thinking about for so many years, someone who had experienced life and death and came to him again.
When he ascended the throne, the biggest thorn in his heart was the three palaces and six courtyards. As a result, a princess came for marriage on the day he ascended the throne...
Holding the chopsticks in his hand, Rong Que clenched his fist and looked at Su Qingqing, "Are you leaving?"
He didn't even dare to breathe.
Su Qingqing was stunned, somewhat surprised why Rong Que asked such a question.
She raised her eyes to look at Rong Que, only to see that his eyes were red. She was stunned for a moment, and then a flash of lightning struck her mind, as if she suddenly understood why Rong Que had just told her this matter in that way.
He is scared!
After all, he was still afraid that she would leave.
The corner of her heart that was panicking and sour was filled with sourness. Su Qingqing reached out and covered Rong Que's hand, "I won't leave. I definitely won't leave. You stay calm, okay?"
Rong Que grabbed her with his backhand. Su Qingqing felt as if her fingers were about to be broken. She didn't know how much force he used.
"I really don't want to leave."
Rong Que's eyes were red. "I don't agree to play a fake game with her."
The topic changed again.
Rong Que said seriously, "I would rather lead the army in person than to have a fake relationship with her. I only have true feelings, not fake ones."
Su Qingqing hummed softly, " Whatever choose, I support you. Let's eat. The soup is getting cold. In the future...if you have anything to say, tell me directly. Let's not guess each other's thoughts, okay?"
The path to becoming an emperor is difficult already, and the path to becoming an empress is a hundred times more difficult than that of an emperor.
If a couple cannot be honest with each other and try to guess each other's thoughts, the marriage will soon be on the verge of collapse.
Rong Que licked his lips and said, "Qingqing, I... I don't want to guess your thoughts. I, I'm just afraid."
"I know, that's why I told you. If you have something to say, just tell me directly. I'll be happier."
Jixiang stood outside leaning against the wall, staring at the stars above his head in a daze.
The next morning.
When Su Qingqing woke up, Rong Que was gone. The emperor's morning court was already early, and he had to rush from the Prince of Zhen'an's Mansion to the palace, so he had to get up even earlier.
Jixiang brought breakfast over, "Master, today's vegetable buns..."
Ugh~
Before Jixiang finished speaking, Su Qingqing, who was about to get up, suddenly turned over and retched.
Jixiang was so frightened that he put down the tray in his hand and ran to the inner room, "Master, what's wrong?"
Su Qingqing lay on the bedside, panting with a pale face. "It's okay. Maybe I caught a cold last night. It's nothing serious. What happened to the vegetable buns you just mentioned?"
Jixiang helped Su Qingqing up, poured her a cup of tea to rinse her mouth, and said while cleaning up the things on the ground: "Today's vegetable buns are filled with pickled cabbage, which is the master's favorite."
Before Jixiang could finish his words, Su Qingqing dry heaved again.
Jixiang was anxious. "Master, we need to call a doctor."
Rong Que had just ascended the throne, and Su Qingqing didn't want to cause trouble for him or distract him, "Let the people we brought come over to take a look, and don't alarm others."
