Capítulo 1803: Chapter 1810: Zhao Gui’s ans (5)
Upon hearing this, Zhao Gui’s face still showed signs of distress. Hanna had beaten her, yet he hadn’t punished Hanna at all, which showed Hanna’s importance in Helan Hao’s heart. The childhood emotions they shared weren’t sothing that could be easily replaced or surpassed by her re feelings towards n in a few days.
Therefore, she must keep trying!
“Thank you, Your Majesty, for your protection. Zhao Gui is endlessly grateful!”
Zhao Gui stood up and gracefully bowed to Helan Hao.
Helan Hao said, “Your wounds haven’t healed yet, no need to bow. Just speak while sitting. By the way, you haven’t told what the na of that verse is. It’s well-written, albeit a bit lancholic. Were you missing ho?”
Zhao Gui laughed and said, “This is sothing I unintentionally heard from Empress Mu. I also thought it was well-written and rembered it. Today, I sang it casually without any specific aning. You may be overthinking it, Your Majesty.”
Helan Hao said, “I’ve often heard people ntion your Great Jin’s Empress Mu. It’s said she’s a woman as beautiful as a fairy, despite her humble origins, possessing skills that could shake the heavens. I’ve heard that our previous Xianbei Queen Jiya died at her hands. Jiya excelled in witchcraft and was an incredibly aweso woman. If she could easily kill Jiya, it shows her skills are far superior! You say the Emperor of Great Jin is devoted only to her and made an order that the harem would never accept concubines. Who knows, perhaps it wasn’t unlike Helan Qi, caught by a woman, fearing not to make such an order, fearing not to treat her well!”
Zhao Gui said, “I don’t know about Queen Jiya’s situation, but our Great Jin’s Emperor truly loves his Empress. Whether it’s love or fear, it’s evident from his expressions. They say the eyes are the windows to the soul; to glimpse into soone’s heart, look into their eyes. However their heart is, the eyes will accurately reflect it; you can’t pretend.”
Helan Hao made an “Oh” sound: “Is that really so? Then let see what you’re thinking.”
Saying this, he stared into Zhao Gui’s eyes. Being looked at like this, Zhao Gui’s face flushed red, hurriedly avoiding Helan Hao’s teasing expressions, and murmured softly: “Your Majesty, please don’t mock your concubine.”
Helan Hao looked at her startled expression, with her blushing cheeks, and couldn’t help but laugh joyfully, saying, “Queen, you’re shy!”
Zhao Gui covered her face, arguing reluctantly: “I am not!”
“How can you not be, look, even your ears are pink!”
As Helan Hao spoke, he lifted his hand to pinch her delicate ears. However, after pinching them, he did not let go, but instead traced his hand from her ears down to her blushing cheeks.
Zhao Gui froze for a mont, showing a cute and confused expression. It wasn’t until she saw Helan Hao’s teasing smile that she suddenly reacted, quickly turning her head to dodge his touch, only to have her cheek firmly held by his dominance.
Their eyes t, with nowhere left to hide, Zhao Gui could only flutter her big furry eyes, timidly looking at him.
Helan Hao slowly leaned in, moving towards that half-opened small mouth.
“Your Majesty!”
Outside, a hurried voice broke the ambiguous atmosphere in the room. A palace maid, frantic and bewildered, said, “Reporting to Your Majesty, just now Miss Hanna accidentally fell, her forehead hitting a pillar and she is now unconscious. Please, Your Majesty, go and see her!”
Upon hearing this, Helan Hao’s expression imdiately turned cold and stern, and he shouted: “Has the Imperial Physician been summoned? Is her condition serious?”
The palace maid replied: “You’ve gone in to get the Imperial Physician. I’m just here to report, and I don’t know the specifics of Miss Hanna’s injuries!”
Zhao Gui said: “Your Majesty, go quickly and see. Miss Hanna is injured; if you see her, she’ll definitely be happy.”
Helan Hao looked at the gentle and sensible Zhao Gui, touched her little face which had not yet faded from its blush, and said: “Yes, I’ll go have a look! I’ll co back to see you tomorrow!”
After saying this, he left in a hurry.
Watching the man’s disappearing back, the charming expression on Zhao Gui’s face swiftly vanished without a trace.
Hanna, to fight for the man, was unexpectedly willing to self-harm. Clearly, she’s truly a formidable character!
