Chapter 47 Xiaoyi rides him like a mule
“…”
“…………”
After a long silence, without getting a response, Ji Xun was about to open his mouth, thinking that she didn't hear him.
"I can't remember clearly."
She avoided him with a panicked look, silently tightened her sleeves, and walked forward quickly.
How could she answer him? This was all a misunderstanding. If she explained further, it would only make things even more confusing.
Yun Xi felt like her whole face was burning. She was afraid that Ji Xun would see her in such a miserable state, so she could only speed up her pace.
Ji Xun stood there for a while, then followed in silence.
…
"My little niece has been gone for so long, why hasn't she come back yet?"
In the front hall, Yun Li sipped the tea that was almost cold, his fingertips tapping on the table from time to time.
Three incense sticks had already burned in the incense burner, but Yun Xi was nowhere to be seen.
After a while, a maid came in and said to him, "Your Highness, Princess Roujia has something to do and will return home first."
Putting away the teacup, Yun Li let a slow smile curl up his lips. "...This silly girl, my royal brother actually dared to send her to my palace. Does he still think he's the once mighty Emperor Ming?"
Today I just took the opportunity to trip her, but she ran away like this.
While he was thinking, another servant came running in and knelt down in panic: "Oh no, Your Majesty, someone's dead in the West Courtyard!"
…
Night, Princess Mansion.
In the bedroom with the doors and windows closed, Yun Xi was soaking in the bathtub, still thinking about what happened during the day.
After thinking for a long time, she finally closed her eyes resigned to her fate.
After coming out of the Nanzhao Palace, Ji Xun didn't speak to her all the way, and he didn't ride in the carriage with her.
She could feel his silent anger, but she really didn't know how to comfort him. From childhood to adulthood, she had no experience in coaxing people, let alone for something like this.
Thinking about it now, I still feel ashamed and embarrassed.
She thought it was a dream, so she indulged herself and messed him up, and then hid away like a turtle afterwards.
Yun Xi felt her mind becoming more and more confused. She calmed down temporarily and looked at the marks on her body.
Her originally fair skin was covered with pinch marks and kiss marks, especially between her legs, which was a horrible sight.
She still remembered that in order to make her feel less uncomfortable, he also intuitively did some foreplay preparations. The touch of that cold golden mask against her legs was uncomfortable.
After taking a bath, Yuan He brought her some ointment. Yun Xi wrapped herself in a thin inner garment and lay on the bed.
"Where did you and Ji Xun go today at the Nanzhao Palace?" Yun Xi asked.
She didn't see them when she came out. Yuan He only appeared when they were about to leave the Nanzhao Palace and hurriedly caught up with them.
Yuan He also wanted to talk about this. She said, "When His Highness went in to drink tea with the King of Nanzhao, I went to the other courtyard to relieve myself. When I came back, I suddenly fainted. When I woke up, the maid from the Nanzhao Palace told me that His Highness was about to leave, so I chased after him."
"It was very hot at that time, and I must have had heatstroke. Fortunately, I woke up in time."
Yun Xi frowned slightly: "...It turned out to be like this."
She hadn't asked where Ji Xun had gone, but she thought he had probably been led away by people from the Nanzhao Palace.
"Your Highness, was you bullied by the King of Nanzhao?" Yuan He was still unaware of what happened today.
Yun Xi coughed lightly: "No...it's okay."
This matter cannot be made public for the time being.
"I'm glad your Highness is alright. Do you need me to apply some medicine for you?"
Yun Xi's tone was a little stiff: "No, you can go down. It's just a mosquito bite."
How can I show this kind of marks to others?
"yes."
After Yuan He left, Yun Xi began to apply medicine on herself. After wiping her arms and legs, she couldn't reach her back and she wasn't sure if there was any.
She sat on the bed in silence for a long time, finally looking up at the ceiling.
"Have you calmed down?"
"Can you help me apply some medicine?"
She also wanted to take this opportunity to have a good talk with him.
No one answered.
Yun Xi took a deep breath: "I know you are on the roof..."
After she finished speaking, there was silence, and then there was a soft sound of footfall outside the hall, and a pair of bony hands pushed open the door.
Without looking back, knowing that it was him, Yun Xi said, "I'm really sorry for what happened during the day. You can ask for any compensation you want."
"Where's the ointment?"
A cold and indifferent voice sounded not far away.
"there."
Yun Xi lay down on her back. There was a rustling sound beside the bed, and then Wen Liang's fingertips, covered with a layer of ointment, touched her back.
The movement was very light, like a feather passing by.
Yun Xi thought for a while, then mustered up the courage to say, "Anyway, you've already taught me a lesson."
He had given her a lot of trouble, so it was a loss for both of them.
"...I have never said that I blame Your Highness." Ji Xun said coldly.
"But your attitude is very clear." Yun Xi said.
"Your illusion." He deadpanned.
Yun Xi: “…”
"I was careless." Yun Xi defended herself, "I was just confused by the medicine."
Ji Xun tightened his knuckles around her waist: "...Oh."
Did you accidentally ask for it four times?
That was really careless.
Ji Xun couldn't find words to describe her, perhaps he really couldn't understand the customs of the Wei Dynasty.
But she didn't want to admit it, so he could only act with her.
"In fact, I was also poisoned that day, so I offended Your Highness. I beg Your Highness to forgive me."
"You took Chinese medicine too? That's good. It seems neither of us did it on purpose."
As Yun Xi was speaking, she suddenly saw out of the corner of her eye that there were some faintly visible small red spots on the area of her arm covered with the ointment.
She was startled and didn't care about anything else. She quickly said, "Ji Xun, I seem to still have those things in my hand..."
I didn't dare to look carefully when I applied the medicine just now, but now I find that the erythema is still there.
Ji Xun frowned slightly, crossed his arm and grabbed her. After a closer look, he saw that beneath the bruises and purple spots, there were indeed traces of that day.
...How could that be?
"How much tea did you drink?"
Yun Xi thought for a moment and replied weakly, "Half a mouthful."
"I will kill him another day."
Yun Xi: "No. I'll let my father take care of it."
The tricky thing right now is the remaining effect of the medicine, and no one knows what impact it will have on her body.
She didn't dare call the doctor for fear that the matter would be leaked.
"What should I do?" She couldn't help but feel worried.
“…Again?”
He came up with a not-so-good idea.
Yun Xi turned over and looked at Ji Xun standing beside the bed. The shadow of his tall figure almost completely enveloped her. She looked into his indifferent and deep eyes, unable to tell the emotion in them.
"Isn't this a bad idea?"
She admitted that he had a good figure and was strong, and he was indeed the only person she had ever been close to, but...
*
Midnight.
Yun Xi curled up in the quilt, sweating profusely and breathing heavily, trying to relieve the excitement of being on top of the clouds in an instant.
Her hair was disheveled and her pupils were a little unfocused. She looked at the bed curtains above her head and thought to herself that it was all over.
She is beyond help.
"More?"
His muscular arms picked up her wet hair and played with it between his fingers.
Ji Xun leaned over, pressing closer to her, his tone still cold, but there was an indelible blush on his ears. In comparison, he seemed much calmer, with a little sweat on his forehead, as if he was just getting warm.
Yun Xi closed her eyes, her mind still on the joy just now, and she couldn't recover for a long time.
In just half a day, he has made such great progress, it's like he has become a different person.
The medicine she had just applied was wasted, and the bed mattress was wet. She didn't want to alarm the maids in the mansion, as it would cause trouble later.
Yun Xi weakly raised her arm and looked at it. The red spots had faded a little, but were still there.
"What kind of weird medicine is this..."
It can actually last this long. How many times will it take?
Yun Xi no longer had the strength to continue, so she finally compromised and planned to ask a doctor to check her out tomorrow.
She turned over and was about to tell Ji Xun about this idea, but when she turned her head, she saw his bulging chest muscles, hot and pressed against her face.
Yun Xi moved a little further away. "How about you go to Chang'an City to find a doctor tomorrow? Go early and come back early, and don't tell anyone."
It had come to this, and there was nothing for her to be embarrassed about. She had already been frank with him several times, so she might as well just stay close to him.
Ji Xun half leaned against the headboard, his brows and eyes were lazy, and he lowered his eyes to look at the person in his arms: "..."
She really knows how to use him like a mule.
He had to serve until midnight and run errands early in the morning.
"Um."
He also wanted to know what this medicine was all about.
"Want to take a shower?"
Yun Xi nodded: "The mattress and quilt also need to be changed, but I don't want others to know."
Ji Xun pursed his thin lips and thought for a moment.
What new tricks are you playing?
At the beginning, it was clearly she who first told the people in the princess's mansion that there was a relationship between them.
"Your Highness, please go to my room and rest first. I will take care of the rest."
Anyway, I have slept with people before, so it’s the same whether I sleep in the bed or not.
Yun Xi did not refuse and let Ji Xun wrap her in his robe and hold her horizontally.
*
Ji Xun's residence was very quiet and there was no one else living around, so the two's actions were relatively covert.
Yun Xi had never been to his residence. His bedroom was as cold and dull as he was. There was almost no decoration in the room. It was simple and tidy, so clean that there was not even a trace of anyone living there.
"Your Highness, if you are tired, you can go to sleep first."
Ji Xun put her down, covered her with the quilt, and closed the door quietly.
Yun Xi curled up on his bed, her nose filled with a familiar cold fragrance, exactly the same as the one on Ji Xun.
She looked around the room curiously and found many books stacked on the desk, which seemed to be about military strategies and state governance. She didn't know that he had such a hobby.
In the corner, there was a lantern, and inside it were many mummified charred butterflies.
The peony she gave him is still in the vase.
Yun Xi couldn't help but wrap herself tightly in the quilt and fell into deep thought.
If the previous incident in the Nanzhao Palace was due to the effects of the medicine, then what was the reason for tonight?
Although it was also for the antidote, they were both extremely clear-headed and willing... She was not sure whether Ji Xun was willing in his heart, or was just doing it to help her.
Yun Xi suddenly realized that she didn't seem to be so averse to this kind of thing.
She didn't resist being close to Ji Xun. Instead, his proximity would make her heart beat faster and her whole body feel hot. Although she felt embarrassed, she would try to respond to him when her feelings were strong.
Is she...
When that thought popped up in her mind, Yun Xi was shocked by herself. She was stunned for a moment and then came to her senses.
However, she still didn't know what Ji Xun meant.
He also had a cold face in bed, as if he was carrying out a mission. He probably didn't like her very much.
Yun Xi was silent for a moment, feeling a little indescribable. She turned over and was about to try to fall asleep.
However, before she closed her eyes, she suddenly saw a corner of light pink fabric sticking out from under the pillow.
It's obviously a girl's.
Yun Xi's heart sank. She reached out, gently grabbed the piece of cloth, and pulled it out.
The next moment, her eyes widened.
“……!”
This was exactly the little piece of clothing she had lost.
How come it's here?
