Chapter 124 The Queen's Hatred (4)
At night, Huo Chengwang obediently brought his homework over. It was twenty big characters written by Huo Chengwang. Ning Shu tested Huo Chengwang to see if he knew these characters. Huo Chengwang also recited a poem.
He shook his little head and recited like an old scholar. After he finished reciting, he looked at Ning Shu. Ning Shu nodded and praised him: "Very good, Chengwang is great."
Huo Chengwang blushed and said with his chest puffed out: "I know more."
To be honest, Ning Shu was really ashamed. Her handwriting was not as good as that of a five-year-old child. Ning Shu felt that she would never write again.
"When playing with the little fox, you must pay attention to safety. Don't go to dangerous places, okay?" Ning Shu instructed Huo Chengwang. Huo Chengwang nodded and said: "Mother, you are so kind."
Ning Shu patted Huo Chengwang's shoulder. She originally wanted to pat his little butt, but she felt like a weird aunt, so she could only pat his shoulder.
"Go back and have a rest." Ning Shu said with a smile, and then reminded him: "Don't get scratched by the little fox. It is an animal after all. It is not good for your health to be scratched. When you wash up at night, ask the nanny to wash with mugwort water, okay?"
"I know." Huo Chengwang nodded.
Ning Shu breathed a sigh of relief after Huo Chengwang left. It was so difficult to communicate with the child.
"Empress, today is the fifteenth day, the emperor should come." Qingzhu looked outside the palace, "But it's so late."
Ning Shu yawned, "Wash up and go to bed, no need to wait."
Qingzhu looked at Ning Shu with a comforting look and said, "Empress, the emperor must be too busy."
Too busy to sleep? Coming to the Queen's Palace is basically to sleep. It's only a few steps away. He just doesn't want to come.
Ning Shu just lay down on the bed when he heard the sharp voice of the eunuch outside, "The emperor is here."
Ning Shu got up from the bed again and put on his clothes.
Huo Qing walked in, Ning Shu bowed to Huo Qing: "Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you."
Huo Qing was tall, with a belt tied around his waist, which made his waist and hips look even more slim, giving people a very sexy feeling. His facial features were very deep and three-dimensional, and his nose was like a hanging gallbladder.
"Is the Queen going to bed now?" Huo Qing said, "Doesn't the Queen remember that today is the fifteenth?"
Ning Shu clearly felt that Huo Qing was angry. There was no expression on his face, and his brows were slightly wrinkled. Ning Shu was speechless. If you don't want to come, don't come. This look like you are forced to come, which makes everyone feel upset.
Huo Qing was indeed forced to come. When he went to court today, Old Man Xiao reported that he had not visited the concubines in the harem for a long time.
To put it bluntly, he asked himself to favor his granddaughter. Huo Qing dragged his feet until now to come to the Queen's palace.
When he left the imperial study, the little fox hugged his legs and refused to let him go, looking at him with tears in his eyes, which made Huo Qing very uncomfortable. After much persuasion, the little fox finally stopped being so sad.
Seeing Ning Shu fall asleep first, Huo Qing was furious and even disgusted with her. Huo Qing opened her arms and waited for Ning Shu to change her clothes. She said calmly, "Go to bed."
Ning Shu nodded, "Okay."
Seeing Huo Qing's expression, Ning Shu felt relieved that she didn't want to go out with her.
"Queen, change my clothes." Huo Qing said coldly.
Ning Shu: (⊙０⊙)
Ning Shu climbed up from the bed again and took off Huo Qing's clothes. Then the two of them lay on the couch in silence. Huo Qing simply turned his back to Ning Shu.
Ning Shu: ...
You come even though you don't want to. What a traitor. If the original owner was like this, she would have been heartbroken by Huo Qing's cold violence.
Ning Shu also turned over and stood back to back with Huo Qing.
Damn, it's really annoying to have someone next to me. I'm already tall and strong, and I can't sleep well because I take up half of the bed.
Ning Shu closed her eyes and fell asleep, but was suddenly awakened by a sharp animal scream, which contained incomparable pain.
Huo Qing, who was next to her, got up quickly, not caring that there was someone sleeping next to him, and stepped directly on Ning Shu's legs. Ning Shu immediately kicked Huo Qing away, and Huo Qing fell to the ground without paying attention, but he didn't care at all. With anxiety on his face, he shouted, "Fox, where are you?"
The fox screamed, a bit like a dog barking in the high octave, and also like a woman's scream. It was particularly terrifying in the middle of the night, which made people shudder.
"Fox, Fox." Huo Qing looked very anxious. Ning Shu got down from the couch and asked Qingzhu to lighten the candle. Huo Qing grabbed the candle directly. He clearly heard Fox crying pitifully not far away.
Finally, Huo Qing found the little fox under the window of the room. One of the little fox's front legs was caught by the mousetrap and was bleeding. Huo Qing was so distressed that he could not bear it any more.
"Call the doctor, call the doctor quickly." Huo Qing roared at Ning Shu with red eyes. Huo Qing was calm, but the original owner had never seen such emotional excitement.
"Go call the doctor." Ning Shu said to Qingzhu. Qingzhu hurriedly went to ask the doctor, but was frightened by Huo Qing's appearance.
Huo Qing squatted down and wanted to take down the mousetrap, but he was afraid of hurting the little fox. He was so anxious that he didn't know what to do.
The little fox shed tears and cried to Huo Qing, looking extremely pitiful.
Ning Shu was watching from the side. The fox was golden in color and looked very beautiful. Its eyes looked very smart and cunning when it turned. But now, its eyes were dim and it kept crying towards Huo Qing.
It was hard to imagine that an animal's body actually contained a human soul. Ning Shu had learned something new. Was it possible that the objects of her missions in the future might be non-human?
Huo Qing turned around and looked at Ning Shu, and asked sharply, "Queen, why did you put such a dangerous thing in the bedroom?"
Ning Shu said calmly, "I haven't been sleeping well these days. There are always mice at night, so I asked the palace maid to make a mousetrap. I didn't expect it to come. It never came to my palace. Who knew something like this would happen?"
The fox had only been in the palace for a short time. The ground had not been trampled yet, and it had not started to act lawless like in the plot.
"I don't know why it came today." Ning Shu said very sincerely.
Huo Qing was speechless for a moment. He couldn't say that the fox followed him because he was here and relied on him.
As an emperor, Huo Qing would never say such words, at least not in front of the Queen Ning Shu.
Huo Qing touched the little fox's head and comforted her: "Fox, it's okay, the doctor will be here soon."
"Woo woo woo woo..." The little fox lay on the ground, her voice was very weak due to the pain, and she was cursing in her heart, why was she so unlucky, how could she be pinched by this thing? Ugh, it hurts her to death, it's all because of that bastard Huo Qing, if she hadn't followed him, she wouldn't have been injured.
The little fox became more and more sad. She felt wronged and the wound hurt, so she cried. Huo Qing wanted to hug the little fox.
