Jiang Muyu supported his chin with one hand and looked at her with interest, his almond-shaped eyes slightly curved: "I just hope that Lady Wu can have children for the palace as soon as possible."
If she got pregnant with a bastard, I'm afraid the dog emperor would be truly disgraced. Anyway, Liang Qingchen would even cheat on himself when he got ruthless, so he probably wouldn't care about this little reputation.
Wu Lianxuan's face became even paler, and even the extra rouge she put on in the morning couldn't hide her haggardness.
She didn't respond, but Jiang Muyu didn't find it boring and told the maid to bring tea.
Xie Mio knelt down first to serve her tea. Jiang Muyu took it, skimmed off the foam with the cup lid, took a small sip and put it down. Then she took the gift box that had been prepared in advance from Yun Ping and handed it to her.
Xie Mio took the gift box and said, "Thank you, Princess."
"Well, get up."
Afterwards, Wu Lianxuan let her maid help her kneel down slowly. When she raised the teacup to Jiang Muyu, her wide sleeves slipped down, revealing a part of her forearm covered with bruises.
She subconsciously wanted to pull down her sleeves to cover it, but she didn't hold the teacup firmly, and the boiling tea spilled directly onto Jiang Muyu's hands.
The back of Jiang Muyu's hand immediately turned red, and she gasped in pain.
The teacup fell to the ground and shattered. Xie Mio was the first to react and immediately said, "Go get some cool water!"
Yun Ping came back to her senses and ran out quickly. After a while, she came back with a wet handkerchief and put it on Jiang Muyu's hand.
During this time, Xie Mio had already asked someone to find a doctor.
Wu Lianxu knelt on the ground, and it took him a long time to react. He said in a panic: "I... I didn't... I didn't mean it."
Jiang Muyu's brows were furrowed due to the burning pain in his hands, and he didn't want to say anything.
It shouldn't have hurt so much, it's just that my body is too fragile. Normally, the slightest bump would turn it purple, let alone such hot water splashing down on it. I'm afraid it would cause blisters.
Liang Qingchen was originally handling official business at the academy. When he heard that she was injured, he hurried over.
At this time, Jiang Muyu was still sitting with a basin of cool water beside her. She covered her hands with a handkerchief for a while, then changed the water and continued to apply it. Even so, two blisters still appeared on her hands.
Wu Lianxu was still kneeling and didn't dare to get up. When he saw Liang Qingchen come in, he buried his head even lower.
Liang Qingchen quickly walked to Jiang Muyu's side, took her hand, opened the handkerchief and took a look, then immediately frowned: "How did you do that?"
Yun Ping said, "When Lady Wu served the tea just now, for some reason she didn't hold it steady and spilled the tea on the Empress's hand."
His face suddenly turned gloomy. He glanced at Wu Lianxu and ordered in a cold voice: "Mrs. Wu has injured the princess. Take her to the outside of Qingyu Courtyard and make her kneel. She is not allowed to get up for less than twelve hours."
"No." Wu Lianxuan grabbed the corner of his clothes, raised his head and cried, "You can't do this to me!"
Liang Qingchen kicked her away in disgust and glanced at the guards still standing outside the door. "What are you standing there for? Why don't you take him away quickly?"
"Yes." The guards came in immediately, and one of them grabbed Wu Lianxu and escorted her out.
Wu Lianxu seemed to have suddenly gone mad and burst into laughter, his voice full of sorrow.
Liang Qingchen thought it was noisy and asked someone to cover her mouth.
Jiang Muyu couldn't help but sigh in her heart: "Sure enough, a man who doesn't love you is simply not a human being when he becomes cold."
The doctor came quickly, examined her hand, applied medicine on it, wrapped it with gauze, and said that if she applied the medicine on time and picked out the blisters in two days and continued to apply the medicine, it would heal soon.
Liang Qingchen asked: "Will this injury leave a scar?"
The doctor said, "As long as Madam Madam applies the medicine on time, there won't be any trace left."
Jiang Muyu breathed a sigh of relief, "I'm glad it won't leave scars, otherwise my fair and delicate hands would be ruined."
Yunping followed the doctor downstairs to get the medicine.
Xie Mio stepped forward, bowed, and said, "I'll take my leave."
They just remembered that there was someone in the room. Jiang Muyu gave her a kind smile: "Thank you for what you did."
"You're welcome, this is what I should do."
After Xie Mio left, Liang Qingchen dismissed the rest of the people, leaving only him and Jiang Muyu in the room.
After closing the door, she suddenly grimaced and cursed, "It hurts so much!"
Liang Qingchen looked at her with amusement: "I'm sorry that you've been holding it in for so long."
"you do not say."
He took her hand, put it to his lips and blew gently, saying, "It won't hurt this way."
She immediately laughed: "Childish."
"Look, you're smiling now. Does it feel less painful now?"
It was true, but she didn't want to admit it. "It's only a little better than before."
"Then shall I give you another blow job?"
She stretched out her hand and suddenly pouted her lips and said pitifully, "What should I do? I haven't finished copying the scriptures yet."
"How many volumes are left? I'll copy them for you."
"Not much, not much, just seventy volumes left."
He was stunned for a moment: "You have copied thirty volumes in just these few days?"
"There are really too many, and it's boring to copy every day. I'll just copy for a while to have some fun. It's a combination of work and rest."
Liang Qingchen pinched her face and said, "I think you are just making excuses for your laziness."
Jiang Muyu smiled slyly: "You were the one who said you would help me copy it. I didn't force you."
He laughed dumbly: "Forget it, I can never beat you."
After sitting for a while, he took her to the inner room.
Jiang Muyu resisted: "I just got up. Hey, brother, please let me slow down for a while. I'm still in pain."
Liang Qingchen turned around and glanced at her, and said helplessly: "I almost didn't sleep all night, so I just want you to accompany me to rest for a while."
"Oh... OK then."
As long as it's not done in broad daylight, everything is fine.
Liang Qingchen took off his outer robe, turned around and saw her staring at him blankly, and couldn't help laughing: "What? You still can't see enough?"
Jiang Muyu immediately looked away, "Who... who looked at you? I was just in a daze."
"Really? Your ears are red, but you're still being stubborn."
"I... am not..."
The explanation sounded more like a cover-up. She was angry for a moment and turned around to leave, but he grabbed her wrist and pulled her gently. She spun around and fell into his arms.
His voice came from above: "Where are you going? Huh?"
"I... I'm not sleepy. You're already so old, do you still need someone to accompany you to sleep?"
"want."
Liang Qingchen put his hands through her armpits and picked her up, carrying her to the bed like a child, then squatted down and took off her socks.
Jiang Muyu didn't struggle, just let him serve her, even opened her arms to let him help her take off her outer robe, just like a child who hadn't grown up.
He also enjoyed serving her.
After putting her on the bed, Liang Qingchen lowered the curtains, pulled the quilt over them both, hugged her waist, and gave her a gentle kiss on the forehead: "Good afternoon."
She put her face close to his chest and whispered, "Good afternoon."
