Shen Yizhi looked at his profile and his heart suddenly started beating rapidly.
She put her arms around his neck and hugged him.
At this moment, she couldn't tell whether she wanted to complete the mission to get the beauty pill, or whether she really wanted to hug him.
This sudden hug made Gu Xueting stunned for a moment, and then he was ecstatic. He hugged her with his backhand and rubbed his chin on her ear, "Zhizhi, can you bear to leave me?"
Shen Yizi buried his head in his neck and said nothing.
"System, how long is three minutes? Are you ready?"
Divine Emperor Pearl: "Not yet. I'll tell you when it arrives."
Seeing that the time for the morning court had arrived, he would be late if he didn't go. In the past, Zhu Xiu would definitely not dare to urge Gu Xueting. However, Gu Xueting's diligence during this period gave him the illusion that his Majesty had finally decided to be a wise ruler.
So after hesitating for a moment, he still reminded: "Your Majesty, the time for the morning court session has arrived..."
Shen Yizhi hurriedly withdrew from Gu Xueting's arms and pushed him out, "Your Majesty, please go to court." He lowered his eyes and did not dare to look at him.
Gu Xueting stroked her hair before leaving.
Shen Yizi crawled into the bed again, pulled the curtain, and took out the beauty pill impatiently.
The pill is the size of a soybean, jade white in color, and exudes a faint fragrance.
The hair growth cream produced by the system before gave her great confidence, and Shen Yizi was about to swallow the pill directly.
Shen Huangzhu hurriedly stopped her: "Wait! Before you eat it, you'd better ask someone to prepare a bucket of water. It's better to eat it in the bathtub."
Shen Yizhi: “Why?”
Divine Emperor Pearl: "Before maintaining your beauty, you must first detoxify, that is, expel the impurities in your body. At that time, some greasy dirt will seep out of your skin..."
"Hey, stop talking." Shen Yizhi interrupted, "Bichan, prepare hot water, I want to take a bath."
"Okay, your majesty." Bichan went to arrange it immediately.
Soon the hot water was ready. Shen Yizi walked into the bathroom, closed the door, took off his clothes, and stepped into the bathtub.
Just as the system said, not long after she took the beauty pill, greasy impurities began to seep out of the surface of her body. The whole process was accompanied by bursts of pain, but fortunately the pain was still within her tolerable range and did not make her scream out.
There is a plug under the bathtub. After taking a bath, pull out the plug and the water inside will flow out through the underground pipe.
So Shen Yizi didn't have to worry that the blackened bath water would be discovered as abnormal by the servants.
After detoxifying, Shen Yizi found that her skin had improved to a greater extent. It was truly as smooth as a baby's, and so white and tender that it seemed as if water could be squeezed out of it. She herself couldn't let it go.
Her complexion has also improved a lot, her face is white and rosy, like peach blossoms in March.
The overall appearance of the person is improving rapidly.
My body also became lighter, and my internal organs seemed to have been cleansed, making me feel indescribably relaxed.
This beauty pill is really effective.
Divine Emperor Pearl: "That's not all. This elixir has only exerted half of its effect. It will continue to nourish your face and turn you into a real fairy. How about it, now you feel my benefits?"
Shen Yizi could only nod at this moment.
Divine Emperor Pearl: "I have a lot of good things here. As long as you do your job well, you will get the benefits."
Now Shen Yizi's fear of Gu Xueting has been reduced a lot, and he is not so averse to doing the task anymore. After hearing what the system said, he agreed.
Shenhuangzhu cheered in her heart. As long as she did her mission well, why would her master have to worry about not being able to win her heart?
"What is the next task?" Shen Yizhi asked proactively.
Divine Emperor Pearl: "Time-limited mission: Help the emperor change his clothes within a quarter of an hour. Mission completed: reward: a bottle of hand cream. Mission failed: no penalty."
"Why are there no penalties for these missions except the first one?"
Shenhuangzhu complained in his heart, it’s because the one in your family doesn’t allow you to get hurt, how dare I attack you again?
"The reason why the punishment was set before was to motivate you to complete the task. Now that the host's attitude has become much more positive and correct, punishment is no longer necessary." Shenhuangzhu said nonsense.
Shen Yizhizi thought it made sense.
A quarter of an hour...time is very tight.
Shen Yizhi ran to the entrance of the hall and waited eagerly. This was the first time she was so looking forward to Gu Xueting's appearance.
I don’t know when he will leave court?
The hair growth cream and beauty pills produced by the system are both extremely effective, so she is also looking forward to the reward for this mission - hand cream.
Hand cream... From the name, you can guess that this is a skin care product specifically for hands. Hands are a woman’s second face and they also need to be well cared for.
Although her hands are already beautiful enough, she doesn't mind making them more beautiful.
Would a woman still think she is more beautiful than before?
The moment he saw Gu Xueting appear at the door of the palace, Shen Yizhi's face lit up, "Your Majesty, you are finally back." A smile broke out on his face, and he walked towards him, pulling him and walking quickly into the palace.
Gu Xueting was distracted by her sudden change in attitude. Feeling the force of her pulling him, the corners of his lips unconsciously curled up a little.
Shen Yizi led the man into the inner room and reached out to take off his clothes, because the system told her that time was running out, only three minutes left.
She must successfully change Gu Xueting's clothes within three minutes, otherwise the mission will fail.
Although there is no penalty for failing a mission now, she still feels heartbroken at the thought of losing the hand cream that should be within her reach.
So this mission must succeed and not fail! Seeing her eagerly stripping off her clothes, Gu Xueting guessed that the Divine Emperor Pearl must have given her some strange mission again. He found it quite funny and did not stop her. Instead, he opened his arms to cooperate with her and teased her, "Zhizhi, you can't wait to be with me..."
He stared at her intently, his eyes full of meaning.
After Shen Yizhi understood, he secretly spat at him, "Your Majesty, you think too much. I just want to change your clothes myself."
Gu Xueting had been resting almost all the time in Yuxiu Palace during this period, so there were a lot of casual clothes prepared for him here. Shen Yizi took out a set and hurriedly helped him change into them.
Finally, I managed to complete the task before the time was up.
To be honest, if it weren't for Gu Xueting's full cooperation and the secret help from the Divine Emperor Pearl, her mission would have been in jeopardy.
The moment Shen Yizi heard the system announce "Congratulations to the host for completing the mission", he was overjoyed.
Occasionally she raised her eyes and met Gu Xueting's smiling, hot gaze. Her heart skipped a beat and she quickly looked away, saying in a dissembling way, "Your Majesty, are you hungry? I'll ask them to serve the meal right away."
