Chapter 251: Softness Overcomes Hardness
Qin Luoyan brought Wutong back to the mansion, it was eerily quiet. Even the watchmen were nowhere to be found, probably hiding somewhere to slack off.It was three o'clock in the morning, and it was s..."With a look of surprise, Shiso listened as she asked him this. "Did you hear anything Is there something wrong"
Of course!
Why would so many people know about her and Fu Zimu's private affairs Why! What on earth is going on!
Although her heart was pounding wildly, Qin Luoyan forced herself to remain calm. She took a deep breath, then another, and after grinding her teeth, she spoke word by word: “Why can you all hear it”
Her questions became increasingly strange to Zisu. "Ma'am, you called out so loudly, of course we could hear you. I estimate that everyone in the courtyard could hear you, especially those skilled guards. They probably even heard the details. Even someone like me, a maidservant with mediocre martial arts skills, could hear so clearly. How much more so for them."
As Zisu spoke, Qin Luoyan felt like ten thousand "f*cks" were racing through her mind. She always thought she was already suppressing her voice, so why did she feel like she was covering her ears and stealing bells It turned out that only she thought she was whispering
Every time that sort of thing happened, with dozens, no, even hundreds of people eavesdropping outside the walls, she would feel like digging a hole and burying herself. How could she ever show her face again
Qin Luoyan frantically grabbed the soft pillow beside her and covered her face, feeling utterly ashamed!
"Madam…" Zisu saw her strange movements and asked with concern, "What's wrong Are you too tired Or shall we go back to the Wangfu for a while I'll go to the kitchen to make some soup for you. The Lord is also… he shouldn't have troubled you so much, not even considering your body…"
"Zisu!" Qin Luoyan finally reached her limit, gritting her teeth and letting out a low growl from behind the soft pillow, "From now on, don't bring that up again! From now until we return to the Wangfu, I forbid you from speaking to me!"
This was the first time Zi Su had seen Qin Luo Yan display such anger. She was momentarily frightened, quickly retreating to the side and sitting quietly, afraid to even breathe. No matter how she thought about it, she couldn't figure out what had upset Madam. She would have to go ask Lao Momo later.
When the carriage returned to the palace, it was pitch black.
As soon as several people got off the carriage, someone came over and relayed a message, saying that King Wuxuan was waiting for his wife to have dinner and asked her to go there as soon as she returned.
Because of what she heard in the carriage, Qin Luoyan was still embarrassed. Thinking about it made her resentful towards Fu Zimuo, the culprit. So when she followed the servant boy into the hall, her face was very unpleasant.
"What's wrong Zhou Li dares to neglect you" Fu Zi Mo held Xiao Yu Jing, who was sitting in the main seat. He looked up at her unpleasant face and said casually.
Qin Luoyan's chest rose and fell with indignation. She felt like the biggest joke in the world, while he acted as if nothing had happened. The more she thought about it, the more unbalanced she felt. For the first time, she sternly ordered the servants around her: "All of you, leave!"
After everyone had bowed, they hurried out. The last one to leave even carefully closed the door.
Fu Zi Mo saw her like this, puzzled in his heart, and asked again: “What’s wrong”
“Fu Zimo! Are you still asking me how I am You... you… during that time, why didn’t you tell me to stay quiet! Only today did I find out, it turns out everyone in the courtyard heard us! Are you a pervert Does having so many people around not affect your feelings”
"Just this" Fu Zi Mo raised an eyebrow, truly not understanding where her anger was coming from. "This king has always had guards by his side since he was a child. They are the most loyal and dedicated soldiers. Even for this king's every movement, they hide in the shadows to protect him. Besides, with their martial arts skills, they can hear any sound within twenty meters. This is what they are supposed to do."
"Well, that doesn't include when we did *that*!" Qin Luoyan felt like she was playing the piano for a cow. Didn't he feel his privacy had been violated She forced herself to calm down and kept telling herself that arguing was pointless. Communication, communication was the only way to solve the problem!
So, after she had calmed her anger, she continued, “My Lord, don’t you think this is a private matter between the two of us It shouldn’t be seen or heard by anyone else, do you understand”
“Do you know when the most powerful people are assassinated” Fu Zimo sneered, “It’s precisely when they need privacy. Do you know how many high-ranking officials die in brothels every year Assassins also choose to strike when their targets are focused on their privacy. Compared to life, what is privacy”
For so many years, he lived under the watchful eyes of guards. From the initial discomfort to the final acceptance, in his mind, the concept of privacy no longer existed.
Qin Luo'yan wanted to retort, but when the words reached her lips, she found his reasoning quite sound. From a safety standpoint, guards were indeed necessary in this situation. However, rationality was one thing, but emotionally, she couldn't accept it under any circumstances!
She stormed over and sat beside Fu Zimo, picking up the teacup and gulping it down in one go, as if trying to quench the burning anger in her heart.
Seeing her like this, Fu Zimu could only sigh in exasperation. He petted her head dotingly and said, "Fine, if you really dislike it, from now on I'll have them leave the courtyard when this happens."
"Then aren't you afraid of it being unsafe" Seeing him compromise, Qin Luoyan couldn't help but feel a little sorry for him.
"This king, would never let a woman die before him." Fu Zi Mo's voice held a tenderness that he himself hadn't noticed.
Though it wasn't a sweet or romantic thing to say, it softened Qin Luoyan's heart in an instant. She suddenly regretted yelling at him. Living alone under everyone's scrutiny for a lifetime is already very difficult and painful. But in his position, to live long, he had to endure these things. He was actually working very hard, and she had been unreasonable. At least from his perspective, she had been quite unreasonable.
"Fu Zimo, none of us will die." Qin Luoyan smiled, the previous anger disappearing completely. She leaned her head against his shoulder, watching the adorable Xiao Yijing in his arms blink her big eyes.
She thought, what if days like this could just continue forever
But reality is always cruel. When she felt happy, two people suddenly appeared and mercilessly shattered that happiness.
At the entrance, Xiao Changyue and Yun Xiaoying stood side by side. Seeing Qin Luoyan nestled beside Fu Zimo inside the hall, the expressions on both their faces couldn't help but stiffen for a moment.
