At this point, Eunuch Xia looked at Qin Ge with expectant eyes.
Qin Ge felt immense pressure when he was given a look by Eunuch Xia. Bearing the expectations of everyone, he could only force a smile but dared not make any promises.
Returning inside the hall and standing by the bed, Qin Ge considered whether to make a makeshift bed on the floor.
Jun Chenbi had opened his eyes at some point, his phoenix eyes were tinged with bloodshot veins, but they did not give off a sense of bloodlust, only a faint weariness.
He looked up at Qin Ge and asked, "Where did you go?"
Qin Ge thought to herself, "Weren't you asleep? Are you that easy to wake up?"
Of course, she only complained in her heart; on the surface, she remained a respectful concubine and replied, "Your Majesty, I will go out and ask Eunuch Xia if he would like to come in and serve you."
The words "臣妾" (your humble servant) are actually starting to come out more and more naturally.
Qin Ge himself fell silent for a moment.
Jun Chenbi said, "No need."
Without the faint, bitter medicinal scent, the throbbing pain in his head returned. The sharp, persistent pain was not negligible, but it was much better than the nightly, agonizing pain that used to feel like someone was constantly chiseling at his head with an awl.
The young emperor's phoenix eyes deepened, and his gaze fell on Qin Ge, who was standing not far away.
Perhaps because they had already decided to turn off the lights and go to bed not long ago, the lights in Huayin Palace were not bright. By the dim candlelight, Jun Chenbi easily sized up everyone.
The other person was wearing a snow-white undergarment and a simple, elegant outer garment. Her long hair was tied up with a white jade hairpin, while the other half was draped over her shoulders.
It does look a bit like... a man's attire.
This thought flashed through Jun Chenbi's mind, which was occupied by a dense headache. He felt as if something had just passed by, too quickly for him to grasp.
In the dim candlelight, one could see that his eyebrows and eyes were exquisitely beautiful, his long hair was jet black, and his lips were rosy, making him so beautiful that it was hard to tell whether he was male or female.
Although Jun Chenbi's face could be described as top-tier beauty, transcending gender, it was often dominated by killing and tyranny, like a sharp sword. What people noticed first at a glance was his imperial aura, and at that moment, his appearance became secondary.
His virtuous consort was clearly beautiful, but what caught people's attention at first glance was her temperament, like a piece of polished and warm jade, which made people feel comfortable.
Jun Chenbi's thoughts turned several times.
Just as Qin Ge was feeling uneasy under his gaze, the tyrant, rumored to be capricious and ruthless, suddenly closed his eyes again. His beautiful lips moved slightly, and his voice, though cold, was filled with the unyielding pressure of a noble emperor: "Come here, continue."
Qin Ge, "..."
Okay, he's just a tool.
Qin Ge walked over and continued to press the emperor's head down.
Of course, given Qin Ge's personality, he would never serve Jun Chenbi with the same trembling respect as the eunuchs around him, who would keep pressing the button until Jun Chenbi told him to stop.
Qin Ge is used to finding a safe and comfortable zone for himself. He can work, but if he doesn't want to be a corporate slave, he also needs the right to rest.
Therefore, as Qin Ge massaged Jun Chenbi, she eventually fell asleep without even realizing when he stopped.
He didn't sleep on the floor, but slept on the same bed as the emperor.
He slept soundly, and it was the best sleep Jun Chenbi had had in many years.
Miraculously, not only did he not wake up in the middle of the night with a headache, but he slept soundly until dawn.
The young emperor, lying on the bed, trembled twice with his eyelashes like butterfly wings, and slowly opened his eyes. His long, narrow phoenix eyes first flashed with a hint of confusion as he woke up, but soon, because there was someone in his arms, his eyes quickly filled with a cold and sharp look...
