Chapter 72 Sir, please be obedient and let me enjoy myself
"Wait."
Before Liubao rolled down, he heard Xiao Zhinian suddenly say this, and his knees, which had just been raised, slammed to the ground again: "Your Majesty, is there anything else you want to tell me?"
"Send the imperial physician here. The master is injured." Xiao Zhinian pondered for a moment, "No, go to the Imperial Hospital first and get a box of ointment for the wound."
Liu Bao did not dare to ask any more questions and obeyed the order: "Yes, I will go down right away."
Xiao Zhinian entered the inner hall, which was heated by a floor heater and was quite warm. He untied his outer robe and threw it to the palace slave who was serving him. He looked around but did not see Shen Zhejiang.
He blurted out, "Where's the gentleman?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he realized that Aunt Lan was here.
wrong!
Xiao Zhinian finally realized that something was wrong with Yan Qing Palace. He looked around and found that Aunt Lan was not there.
He was shocked. Could it be that she discovered that Shen Zhejiang was the person he brought in from outside the palace?
"Where is Aunt Lan?"
"Your Majesty, there's news from the Xianghe Palace that the Empress Dowager has caught a cold, and Aunt Lan has been urgently summoned back to take care of her by her bedside."
It turns out it wasn't what he thought, luckily.
Xiao Zhinian breathed a sigh of relief, but frowned slightly and said, "The Empress Dowager is ill. Please inform me... Well, have you asked the imperial physician to check her pulse?"
The palace servant responded, "Yes, Imperial Doctor Zhao has examined her and prescribed a prescription. The Empress Dowager has just gone to bed after taking it."
"Well," Xiao Zhinian paused as he put on one of his sleeves after hearing this, and said to himself, "In that case, I will not disturb the Empress Dowager's rest for now, and will go to visit her tomorrow. By the way, where is Mr.
"Mr. Shen is bathing in the Wenhua Pool in the back hall. He asked me to prepare a bed and move it to the side hall. He said that he would sleep there from now on. I dare not stop him..."
These words simply added fuel to the fire.
"You dare to make your own decisions before I agree?"
Xiao Zhinian's face immediately turned cold and he suppressed his anger.
How could he agree to sleeping in separate rooms?
Upon seeing this, all the palace servants knelt down on the ground and said tremblingly: "This is... Mr. Shen's request, we dare not disobey..."
Xiao Zhinian even took off his outer robe and threw it on the floor. He took a deep breath, looked at these people coldly, and said word by word in a cold voice: "Come here, drag them all away and beat them with a stick!"
There is no limit on how much the punishment should be, it just means beating until the punishment is satisfactory. If the punishment is too heavy-handed, the person may lose his life.
The palace maid was so frightened that her face turned pale. When had His Majesty ever been so angry before? She immediately threw her head to the ground and begged for mercy: "Your Majesty, please spare me! Your Majesty, please spare me!! I will never dare to act on my own again! Please forgive me, Your Majesty!!"
To no avail.
Xiao Zhinian was as cold as the cold sky, and shouted sternly: "Take him away!"
Soul-stirring wails rang out inside and outside Yanqing Palace. The palace maids were all dragged out of the palace gate by the guards, their expressions twisted and painful. Soon, a large number of cries almost spread throughout the entire palace.
Xiao Zhinian was already in a bad mood, and the constant heat from the scalding earth dragon burned him, making him even more upset.
Oh shit!
Xiao Zhinian cursed in his heart, then walked out of the inner hall with his robe fluttering.
Without even a glance at the mess in the yard, nor asking anyone to follow him, he strode along the eaves towards Wen Huachi.
The distance was not far, and Xiao Zhinian walked very fast and arrived in no time.
Wenhua Pool was built according to the terrain of the mountain. A crescent-shaped stone gate is the entrance. After passing through it, a path paved with rainflower stones appears in front of you. Flowers and trees of all seasons are planted all around, and it is colorful and prosperous in warm spring and cold winter. Behind the embroidered curtain of mandarin ducks playing in the water, the mist floating out of the hot spring is hazy and dense, like a fairyland on earth.
Xiao Zhinian is not a person who is only interested in fun. This place was renovated by the Ministry of Works under the order of Empress Dowager Liang two years ago. It took only five months from the discussion to the completion. The meaning is self-evident. She hopes that Xiao Zhinian will stay in the harem more instead of going out to travel.
However, Xiao Zhinian did not do as she wished, and he did come a few times later, but that was after Shen Zhejiang returned to the palace.
No matter how beautiful the scenery was, Xiao Zhinian had no intention of appreciating it. He walked quickly along the stone path and lifted the curtain.
The first thing that caught his eye was a screen. Through the screen, he could vaguely see Shen Zhejiang's back immersed in the water with his back to him. His black hair was tied up in a high bun, revealing the smooth and tight curves of his shoulder blades. From a distance, the ups and downs looked like a pair of butterflies fluttering their wings.
Shen Zhejiang stood by the pool, thinking about something, with his neck slightly lowered. He did not notice Xiao Zhinian's footsteps, but even in the rippling water, his body was always tense.
"......"
Xiao Zhinian's Adam's apple rolled up and down. He walked around the screen, his eyes swept across the clothes neatly stacked on the wooden rack, and fell on Shen Zhejiang again, his eyes dark.
He tried to slow down his voice and said, "Is Han Zitang really that important to you? I just said a few words to him and you are going to quarrel with me."
Shen Zhejiang opened his eyes suddenly, but did not turn around. His voice fell into Xiao Zhinian's ears through the wet mist: "Your Majesty has not understood what I mean. Since Your Majesty has doubts in your heart, I will not hinder Your Majesty. Wouldn't it be in line with Your Majesty's wishes to move away voluntarily?"
"I have always obeyed you, sir. I listen to whatever you say," Xiao Zhinian walked towards him. "You said you have a casual relationship with Han Zitang. Okay, I believe you, but what about you? You protect him!"
"......" Chen Zhejiang felt that it was not a good idea to continue arguing with Xiao Zhinian. "Let's stop for tonight. It's getting late. I heard that the Empress Dowager is ill. Your Majesty should go to visit her to show your filial piety. Please go out, Your Majesty. I need to get dressed."
Unexpectedly, the next moment, all the clothes on the wooden rack were suddenly swept into the water, gradually got soaked and sank to the bottom of the pool.
Chen Zhejiang was speechless.
Is he not going to let me go?
At this time, Xiao Zhinian began to untie his waist belt and threw it into the water one by one. Shen Zhejiang became alert and wanted to step back, but Xiao Zhinian, who jumped into the pool, grabbed his shoulders and pushed him to the edge of the pool.
The edge of the warm pool was lined with stones of uniform size. Although they were polished to be smooth and round, it would still hurt if you bump into them suddenly.
Shen Zhejiang had just recovered for a while when he was completely blocked by Xiao Zhinian's tall figure. This kind of Xiao Zhinian made him a little scared.
Xiao Zhinian looked at him, pinched his waist, and said, "You belong to me and me only. If anyone dares to covet you, I will kill them if I see them."
As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Zhejiang suddenly felt a sharp pain. His nails, which were originally red from the warm water, turned pale due to the force of scratching the edge of the pool. He gritted his teeth and growled, "Xiao Zhinian, are you crazy?"
Xiao Zhinian refused to listen: "Sir, don't you want to move away? Fine, I agree to your request. Then move to Wenhua Pool. There is a bed inside. I don't mind making love with you here every day."
“You…ah!”
Shen Zhejiang exclaimed.
Xiao Zhinian whispered in his ear, feeling bitter, but still spoke harshly: "Sir, you have been sleeping in my harem for so long, and I have not given you a title yet. It seems that I am stingy. In two days, I will ask the Hanlin Academy to draft an edict to give you the title of 'Shen Fei'. How about that? Then we can announce it to the world and dispel those people's covetous hearts."
Shen Zhejiang shook his head desperately. He couldn't speak anymore. Xiao Zhinian pinched his Adam's apple with five fingers.
How could Xiao Zhinian say such a thing...
"Oh, I forgot to tell you, sir, that the palace servants who carried your bed to the side hall have been punished by me. According to the time, they should be beaten to death soon," Xiao Zhinian continued, "Six Treasures are waiting outside now. Sir, be obedient and let me have my fun. Maybe I will show mercy and spare their lives."
Shen Zhejiang held Xiao Zhinian's palm, his eyes filled with a layer of blurred mist due to the pain, and he said with all his strength: "...I used to teach you...to love the people..."
Xiao Zhinian said: "Instead of doing this, sir, you might as well save your energy to satisfy me and shout louder!"
