Chapter 3309 Are you really going to...
Although the driver was very surprised.
But as Nie Qingru's right-hand man, Yingying speaks with great weight.
The driver only thought about it for a moment, then said respectfully to the two: "Okay, I'm not far away. The Queen and Lord Shadow can call me at any time."
Shadow watched the driver go away, walked to a distance where it was impossible to hear the corner of the wall, and then turned back to look at the master he had followed for decades.
The muscles on both sides of the cheeks trembled violently, and for the first time, I felt suspicious.
He hasn't had time to speak yet.
Nie Qingru took the lead to break the silence: "Hey, you are so courageous now that you don't even pay attention to me."
Shadow's back felt cold, and immediately knelt down in front of her on one knee: "The empress forgives the sin. This subordinate is just in a hurry, and did not disobey your intention."
"Speak." Nie Qingru didn't bother with him, sat in the car, but didn't close the door, looked at him sharply: "What do you want to tell me?"
Shadow suddenly raised his head and touched her cold eyes. For some reason, those words were entwined in his heart, and he couldn't open his mouth.
Nie Qingru waited for a few seconds, but before he could speak, the sneer on his face disappeared: "My patience is limited. If you don't tell me, let the driver come back."
Shadow had blue veins on his forehead, he clenched his hand and then loosened it, then clenched it again, and finally mustered up the courage to look into her eyes: "Empress, have you made a decision?"
Nie Qingru's originally calm expression was completely cold, and he looked at him with a murderous look in his eyes: "What am I going to do? It's your turn to ask me?"
"But Young Master Qi is the person you watched and grew up with, like a son, and devoted your heart and soul to him. Are you really willing to sacrifice him?" Shadow said excitedly.
He is not a fool.
Having been with Nie Qingru for decades, he knows his master's words and deeds very well.
If the Queen gave Qi Shao a hard lesson in the ward just now, there is still room for change in this matter, at least the Queen is willing to protect Qi Shao.
But the Queen’s attitude in the ward just now was unreasonably gentle, she even patted Qi Shao on the shoulder lightly before she left...
Perhaps in Qi Shao's view, this is the expression of intimacy.
But Shadow is very clear about how Ji Qing died back then.
Before Ji Qing died, the empress also had this attitude.
Changed from the usual strictness, she was gentle like an ordinary mother.
But…
"Empress, I know that Young Master Qi has caused you a lot of trouble this time, but if you insist on saving Young Master Qi's life, the Privy Council may not dare to..." Shadow spoke quickly and urgently, with a fine layer of pimples secreting from the tip of his nose. Sweat, I don't know whether it is anxiety or fear.
But he wasn't done yet.
Nie Qingru interrupted him: "Enough!"
Shadow raised his head and looked at her blankly: "Are you really going to..."
Nie Qingru looked at him sharply: "You know better than anyone how much I have sacrificed and compromised to get to where I am today."
Shadow lowered his head and said weakly: "I know. But..."
But that's Young Master Qi!
is the child he watched growing up.
He really couldn't bear it.
"I know what you want to say, but I can't ruin my whole life's hard work for him!" Nie Qingru closed her eyes heavily, and a fishy-sweet smell rose from her chest.
She is not much better off than Shadow.
But right now she only has this way.
"I raised him from an early age, gave him the best education, and hired him the best teacher. I didn't even push him to the bright side in the first thirty years so that he could have a quiet environment, and secretly cleaned him up. Obstacles in the way..."
