However, this was also the first time Rong Xi saw Shen Ze'an in action. She only knew that he was a skilled martial artist, but she had never seen what he was like in detail.
Now it seems that their reputation is well-deserved. The martial arts of Lu Zhou and Lu Feng are already bizarre. Although she has never fought with them, she is not sure if she can defeat one of them.
Unexpectedly, even though both of them tried their best, they were still suppressed by Shen Ze'an. If Shen Ze'an hadn't held back several times, they would have been injured.
More than an hour passed and all three of them were sweating profusely.
Especially now, Shen Ze'an walked over step by step with his bare chest, and sweat slowly flowed down from his neck.
Rong Xi heard the sound of herself swallowing.
Shen Ze'an naturally saw it as well. He pulled Rong Xi up from the chair, carried her onto his back and went into the bedroom.
The two little maids who followed him shyly stepped aside.
The door was slammed shut, and Chen Ze'an lowered his head and wanted to kiss Rong Xi's lips. Rong Xi just raised his head and suddenly remembered his current situation and turned his head away.
"You'd better not get too excited now, otherwise when the poison is cured, your thing will be used."
This sentence froze Shen Ze'an in place. This girl spoke so bluntly.
Okay, even if you’re not excited, you should hug me.
So after taking a bath, Rong Xi was held in Shen Ze'an's arms like a doll, unable to move.
"Sir, if your subordinates saw you like this, they would definitely laugh at you."
After saying this, Rong Xi moved forward with force, and the clothes that were pressed down were pulled out by her.
Chen Ze'an was unwilling at all and moved closer. Rong Xi smelled really good. They were together every day and used the same soapberry incense, but Rong Xi smelled so good, completely different from his own.
"They can't see me, but even if they do, I'll find a way to make them keep it a secret."
If someone doesn't want to see something they shouldn't see, just kill him, and no one will know about it.
"But how am I supposed to sleep when you're like this?"
His feet were all resting on her.
"Just sleep like this."
Rong Xi was so annoyed that he sat up with difficulty, "We must sleep in separate rooms."
"Why do we need separate rooms? We are fine like this."
"Chen Ze'an, look at how much space I have left. This big bed can't accommodate you, right?"
"Stop making trouble and go to sleep. I'll hold you gently."
Rong Xi was forcefully pulled down by him again. This time he was indeed much gentler, but she really wanted to sleep alone and it was difficult for her to turn over.
Under Shen Ze'an's gentle patting, Rong Xi fell asleep.
Seeing that she was sleeping, Shen Ze'an gently kissed her face. No wonder the eunuchs in the palace wanted to find a partner, so this is how it works.
In the middle of the night, Rong Xi heard heavy breathing. Reaching over, he touched Shen Ze'an and found that his head was covered in sweat and he was extremely hot. It seemed that it was due to the effect of the medicine.
The water and towels prepared in the room in advance also came in handy at this time. Shen Ze'an, who was dazed by the fever, saw Rong Xi's busy figure. He wanted to get up, but he had no strength at all.
"Don't move, just lie still."
"Mother, why do you not want me? Why do you want to sell me?"
Shen Ze'an kept muttering, and Rong Xi didn't hear clearly at first. It took him several times before Rong Xi understood what he meant.
"Don't worry, I won't sell you out."
Shen Ze'an was silent for a moment before he began to murmur again, "Eunuch, please save this slave. I don't want to serve His Majesty. I don't want to be castrated. No, no."
The words he spoke sounded very pitiful, and tears rolled down the corners of his eyes.
"Don't hit me, don't hit me."
Rong Xi patted his shoulder gently and comforted him softly, "It's okay, it's okay, no one will hit you, and no one dares to hit you. Don't worry, I will protect you."
Just from these few words, one can understand the pain and torture he suffered in his childhood, which is simply heartbreaking. Shen Ze'an is so handsome, he must have been a pretty and lovely child when he was young.
She couldn't understand why such a lovely child was ruthlessly abandoned and sold by her own biological parents. It was really hard to understand how they could be so cruel!
At the age of eight, he can already remember things.
It's rare to see his vulnerable side. He tells his secrets without any guard. It seems that he really trusts himself.
Rong Xi was thinking, since he was feeling so uncomfortable, could the effect of the medicine be reduced?
She stayed with him like this all night. When Shen Ze'an woke up the next day, he subconsciously touched Rong Xi beside him but found nothing.
He felt inexplicably anxious, wondering where Rong Xi had gone. But when he stood up, he saw Rong Xi sleeping beside the bed.
The hazy memories of last night gradually became clearer, like a blurry picture gradually coming into focus, with details emerging one by one. It turned out that Rong Xi had taken care of him the entire night!
When his eyes fell on the washbasin beside her and the handkerchief soaked in the water, all his questions were answered. These items silently told him a fact - he had indeed been taken care of by Rong Xi.
Her eyes were slightly red. She tiptoed to the bed, put Rong Xi on the bed, and covered her with the quilt before getting up.
Rong Xi woke up the moment he hugged her, but she was really sleepy now, so she just ignored it and didn't eat breakfast. She slept until noon and only got up when someone came from the palace.
The eunuchs in the palace heard that the Ninth Princess was still sleeping and did not dare to disturb her. The most important thing was that the Governor said she was still resting, so he could only wait in front.
But it has been more than an hour, and the palace is still waiting for him to return and reply, so he can only respectfully send someone to invite him again.
Rong Xi had also slept enough, and heard someone coming out from the palace with Baohuan.
"Sir, I've been waiting for a long time."
"Princess, what are you talking about? It is my blessing that I can wait for you."
"Tell me, what's the matter?"
"Princess, it's the Queen Mother who misses you. Please go back to the palace and talk to her."
Rong Xi knew what bad things they were planning at once.
The Prince of Qing Kingdom's injuries have probably almost healed in the past few days. Now that the Fifth Princess has done something like that again, she must be targeting herself.
"The palace has been so busy lately, and the Fifth Princess's affairs haven't been dealt with yet, yet the Empress Dowager is thinking of me. It's quite timely."
The eunuch's face froze when she heard what she said. It seemed that the Ninth Princess knew everything clearly.
But she still had to put on a show. "The Ninth Princess is joking. The Queen Mother misses you. Knowing that you are very smart, she probably wants you to come to the palace and give her some advice." After saying this, she did not forget to show a flattering smile.
"Your words are pleasant to the ears, sir. I will go there."
"Thank you for your understanding, Princess."
Make a big fuss in heaven, not in the palace.
