By the time Yi Qing had returned from his leisurely brewing of tea, there was only Xiao Fen left in the room.
"Why did he leave? Did you send him away? "
"The Emperor is not a tyrant."
Listening to him explain for the emperor, Yi Qing happily poured him a cup of tea, "Of course I know, how could I be so presumptuous? Actually, I think the Emperor is a man of his heart. "
To the woman he loved, he did his duty of loving; to the loyal subject he did his duty of trusting and relinquishing power.
The way Xue Ci treated him was as emotionless as a jade. She even felt indignant for him.
"Yi Qing, is it reliable?"
Under the dim light, Xiao Bu Dian's eyelashes cast a shadow on his eye sockets. Yi Qing couldn't see what was in his eyes, but he could feel a chill.
He probably couldn't help but want to make a move against Imperial Concubine Xue.
