Snatching Women from the Male Lead-Chapter 127: The Fall of the Stars

Wei Chen, who was observing the stars, discovered that the light of the Breaking Army Star had dimmed, and felt this was ominous!

Qin Zhao was alerted by 502: "Host, Huo Chengjin is no longer the Breaking Army Star!"

Qin Zhao's smile froze, then the corners of her lips raised into an even bigger curve.

"Tsk tsk, how weak is Huo Chengjin's psychological endurance?

But this is good too, to give up the position of Breaking Army Star early, saving me the trouble."

The hunting competition ended, and the Emperor let everyone withdraw, then called over Zhou Quande, "Prepare a horse for Us, We are going hunting tomorrow."

Zhou Quande: "Here, will Your Majesty take the Sweat Blood Treasure Horse?"

"Yes, take it."

"Your servant will go prepare now."

Qin Zhao walked to Qi Yan Su Luo and put the Night Glowing Pearl in her hand, laughing, "A gift for you."

Qi Yan Su Luo looked at the glowing Night Glowing Pearl in the box, and returned it to Qin Zhao, "I don't like it."

Qin Zhao's smile faded away, "There is no one in this world who doesn't like the Night Glowing Pearl.

What you don't like is not it, but me."

She took the Night Glowing Pearl to the tent. Qi Yan Su Luo watched her back figure for a long time before taking a step forward.

Qi Yan Su Luo entered the tent and saw Qin Zhao sitting on the bed reading.

She went over, took the book and put it on the table beside, "The lamplight is too dim, reading is bad for your eyes, this is what you told me."

Qin Zhao turned her head away, not looking at her.

Qi Yan Su Luo pinched her chin, "When unhappy, you should do something joyful."

She lowered her head and bit Qin Zhao's lips! f𝗿e𝗲𝘄𝗲bn𝐨𝚟𝚎l.com

"What are you doing, let me go!" Qin Zhao yelled.

Qi Yan Su Luo paid no heed, and concentrated on the task at hand.

At first Qin Zhao resisted stubbornly, but after being aroused, she accepted it.

That night Qi Yan Su Luo was more enthusiastic than ever before, causing Qin Zhao to pass out...

In the early morning, Qin Zhao hazily wanted to reach out to knead the dough as usual, but found no one by her side!

She opened her eyes, and just as she was about to call for someone, Qi Yan Su Luo lifted the tent flap and walked in, "What's wrong?

You're awake so early, why not sleep some more?"

Qin Zhao looked her up and down, and didn't notice anything unusual, but smelled a scent of hay, and asked: "Where did you go?"

Qi Yan Su Luo said: "I went to the latrine for a bit."

Qin Zhao touched the bedsheet beside her which had already cooled, indicating Qi Yan Su Luo had been gone for at least an hour.

She realized Qi Yan Su Luo was lying, but did not expose it.

She said: "Come over and accompany me, I want to hold you and sleep."

Qi Yan Su Luo nodded, and lay by Qin Zhao's side.

Qin Zhao hugged her, and fell asleep again.

Hearing Qin Zhao's breathing become steady, Qi Yan Su Luo knew she was asleep, so she opened her eyes and gazed at the tent ceiling.

Her eyes faintly revealed unease.

In the afternoon, Qin Zhao finally slept her fill and got up.

After the noon meal, sitting outside the tent with Qi Yan Su Luo, using rocks and wooden boards they made a simple chess board.

With Cong Han and Shen Xue, they started a game of Go.

Although Go has simple rules, none of them had played before, so Qin Zhao kept winning!

The loser had to accept a small punishment.

Qin Zhao usually made them do exercises like squats and push-ups, 10 each time.

Even though the number was not high, the three still ended up sore all over, unable to stand up straight.

"Your Highness, can you change to a different punishment? I can't take it anymore!"

Cong Han squatted while shouting, "If I keep going, I might die here!

Your Highness, do you have the heart?"

Qin Zhao chuckled lightly, "You girls, it's because you don't exercise enough, that's why it's like this.

I'm helping improve your physique.

You should be thanking me."

The three glared at Qin Zhao simultaneously!

Qin Zhao shrugged, indifferent.

They played and fooled around, and time passed quickly.

The sun slanted to the west, the remaining sunlight like blood.

Qin Zhao stood up, stretched lazily, "Let's stop playing, it's boring.

You're all so stupid, not winning even once!"

The three wanted to retort, but had no words.

Qin Zhao shook her head with a laugh, about to return to the tent, when hurried, disorderly footsteps were heard approaching!

Over a dozen guards rushed over!

Qin Zhao asked: "What happened?"

The guards respectfully bowed to Qin Zhao, and one of them said: "Reporting to Your Highness, His Majesty... fell off his horse while hunting, because the Sweat Blood Treasure Horse went berserk.

After investigation, Xu General suspects someone tampered with the hay the Sweat Blood Treasure Horse ate!

A palace maid said she saw a suspicious figure in the stable at night, seeming to be a woman.

Xu General ordered everyone to gather at the square, to let that maid identify the woman through body shape!"

Qin Zhao thought of Qi Yan Su Luo's appearance early that morning, but didn't look at her. She told the guards: "This palace understands."

After the guards left, Qin Zhao pulled Qi Yan Su Luo into the tent.

With her back to Qi Yan Su Luo, she asked: "Is there anything you're hiding from me?"

Qi Yan Su Luo lowered her eyes, "No."

Qin Zhao closed her eyes for a moment, "Qi Yan Su Luo, this palace will give you one more chance, tell everything from the beginning, truthfully."

Qi Yan Su Luo still answered: "Nothing to say."

Qin Zhao clenched her fist, then slowly relaxed it. "Qi Yan Su Luo, you disappoint me greatly.

If you are identified, even I can't protect you, so take care of yourself!"

Qin Zhao left the tent first.

On the way there, neither spoke a word, not even exchanging a glance.

Sensing the abnormal atmosphere between them, Cong Han and Shen Xue signaled to each other, wanting to ask what was wrong.

But because they couldn't agree on who should ask, neither made a sound.

When they arrived at the square, it was already packed with people.

All the people the Emperor brought were crammed here.

Everyone spoke in hushed tones.

"I heard when the Emperor was young, he excelled in the six gentlemanly arts, how could he have fallen from his horse?"

"Who knows, maybe because he's older now, not as energetic as in his youth.

Riding is inherently dangerous, a moment's inattention could lead to injury."

"Quiet, the Emperor hates others saying he's old!"

"I suspect that he doesn't want to admit falling by himself, that's why he's making a big fuss to frame someone.

It's so frightening!"

"Silence!!" Zhou Quande yelled.

Everyone shut their mouths, and listened to Zhou Quande continue: "Men and women, stand separately!"

All followed instructions and stood in place.

An hour later, the sky was completely dark.

Zhou Quande had hundreds of lanterns lit to illuminate the square, and announced no one could sleep tonight until the culprit was found!

Qin Zhao yawned, hoping for an early end.

The palace maid finally approached to within a few meters, and the people around visibly panicked!

Fearing becoming a scapegoat.

Her footsteps drew near, stopping in front of Qi Yan Su Luo.

The maid's pupils constricted as she pointed at Qi Yan Su Luo and shrieked: "It's her!!"
