Chapter 2121 It’s Really Hard to Appease 3
But she didn't expect the maids behind her to catch up quickly.
"You don't have to follow me."
"Miss, the emperor told us to stay with her and protect her."
Xia Weibao's eyes twitched fiercely, "He wants to monitor me?"
"Miss, the emperor didn't say that. He only told us to protect her. Wherever she goes, we have to follow her."
Xia Weibao, "..."
What's the difference between this and monitoring?
She walked out angrily. She was going to settle accounts with someone!
But she didn't expect that just after she walked out of Shelley Palace, she found a circle of guards outside. When they saw her come out, they all saluted, "Meet Miss Xia."
Xia Weibao's eyes twitched again, "Who are you!"
Don't be what she thought...
"Miss Xia, the emperor ordered his subordinates to protect her safety here."
Xia Weibao's forehead slid down three black lines. What protection? He was afraid that she would run away!
She was right. Lu Hualiang was afraid that she would run away.
In the imperial study, Lu Hualiang was frowning and couldn't even read the memorials.
After thinking for a long time, she felt that it was not appropriate to ask someone to guard the door of Shelley Palace. What if Xia Weibao thought he was putting her under house arrest?
She had always longed for freedom. If she was still locked up by force, it might backfire.
"Eunuch Yang, go and tell the Jinyiwei to withdraw and guard all the exits of the palace."
The palace is so big, she can run around as crazy as she wants, as long as she doesn't leave.
Xia Weibao spent a lot of time talking to the Jinyiwei but couldn't get them to leave. She almost couldn't help but fight.
But before she started, someone hurried over and whispered a few words to the leader of the Jinyiwei, and then they all withdrew.
Even those women left.
Xia Weibao, "......???"
Did Lu Hualiang find his conscience and let her out of the palace?
Find a chance to have a good chat with him. Anyway, she couldn't leave before Wangcai's injury healed. There were still several days.
I didn't sleep all night last night, and I fought again this morning. I'm very tired now.
Xia Weibao did not go out again, but went back to her room to take a nap.
She tossed and turned but could not fall asleep, and seemed to fall asleep in a daze.
She felt a heat source beside her, turned over and stuck to it, reached out and touched it, and then felt a big hand on her waist, holding her in his arms.
In the familiar embrace, Xia Weibao moaned, rubbed her cheek against the man's chest, and then fell asleep.
Lu Hualiang looked at the woman in his arms, whose breathing gradually became even, and leaned quietly in his arms, relying on her like a cat, with mixed feelings in his heart.
He lowered his head and gently kissed her forehead, "Sleep."
He did not sleep last night, and now he fell asleep while hugging the soft person.
He woke up after sleeping for half an hour, fearing that Xia Weibao would say she wanted to leave the palace after waking up, so he left before she woke up.
Just after coming out of the Shelley Palace, Eunuch Yang came to greet him, "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother asked you to come over."
Lu Hualiang's sword eyebrows were slightly drooping, which was expected.
When he came to the Queen Mother's bedroom, he saw the Queen Mother who had already brewed tea.
Emperor Xia Liang was the founding emperor. The Queen Mother was a woman in the boudoir before, and later followed Emperor Xia Liang into the palace, so her face did not have the majesty of the Queen Mothers of previous dynasties, but was more peaceful.
Seeing the emperor come in, she personally poured him a cup of tea.
Lu Hualiang looked at the tea pushed in front of him, and had no intention of drinking it.
"Mother, why did you call me here?"
