"Master Zhangxiang, my hands hurt so much."
This was the time when people were most tired. Xiao Li's usually clear voice was now a little hoarse, and her tone was tired and lazy, sounding like she was acting coquettishly.
However, her eyes were as cold as ever, and she was waiting calmly for Lou Yan's reaction.
Lou Yan stared at the pair of hands stretched out in front of him. The hands were snow-white and slender like jade. The lazy and delicate voice echoed in his ears.
He is a eunuch, and the person in front of him is a princess.
No matter how powerful he is, he is just a slave who can be executed at any time, and no matter how powerful she is, she is still a noble princess.
He seemed to see himself dying without a burial place.
His heart was in turmoil and his expression became increasingly tense.
When Xiao Li felt bored and wanted to drop his hand, he finally reached out to catch it. His skin was soft and felt like jade, and his knuckles were slender, as if he had no bones.
His body was cold, but his palms were dry and hot. On the contrary, Xiao Li's hands were icy to the touch because it was late at night.
His strength was neither too strong nor too weak as he massaged his sore wrist. Xiao Li squinted her eyes in comfort, enjoying it while observing his expression.
Well, his expression didn't change, still that look of "keep away from strangers", leaving no doubt that he would pull out a knife and kill people at the next moment, but the strength on his wrist was just right, and you could feel that he was massaging seriously.
The sleepiness that she had been suppressing came over her and she almost fell asleep.
I forced my eyelids open and yawned several times.
After pressing for a while, Lou Yan got used to it. He raised his eyes and glanced at Xiao Li. He saw her tiredness. The words of persuasion went around in his mouth and were finally swallowed.
Lou Yan lowered his head and massaged her wrist seriously, just like a servant who was simply serving her.
Until those hands suddenly broke free from his hands. He thought he was comfortable and wanted to take them back, but he never expected that they would fall on his face.
The slightly cool fingertips are soft and weak, but they seem to be able to stir up huge waves.
Wherever the fingertips pass, there is an unignorable touch and a burning sensation.
Her fingertips traced the edge of his eyebrows, the corners of his eyes, down his cheeks, across the corners of his lips, and finally gently pinched his chin and lifted it slightly.
Their eyes met, one had deep and strange black eyes, while the other had a misty look with shimmering light at the corners of his eyes.
Lou Yan exuded danger from head to toe, but Xiao Li seemed unaware of it. Looking at him being controlled by her, a smile slowly spread in her eyes.
"I've never seen you smile. What a waste of this stunning beauty."
His throat rolled, and his hand, which had been enduring until veins were exposed, finally raised up and grabbed her rebellious hand.
His gaze was as deep as the sea, like a dangerous whirlpool. If you were sucked in, you would be doomed. There was flame burning in the whirlpool. If you touched it, you would be burned by the flames.
"Your Highness..." His voice was slightly hoarse, calm yet concealing madness. Finally, he seemed to bow to his own reason, put her hand to his lips, and kissed her deeply.
Sighing: "You shouldn't mess with minions..."
-----
I continued copying the book from dusk to dawn, and then from dawn to dusk.
One day and one night.
Hongyue and Lanyue took turns to serve him, and during this time Xiao Li only ate snacks and took medicine.
Finally, when it was dark again, I finished copying it two hundred times.
The moment the last word fell, Xiao Li's eyes went dark and he fell down.
"Princess!"
Hongyue, who was accompanying her, screamed in fear and rushed over to check: "Princess...someone come, the princess has fainted."
Lou Yan, who had been standing nearby as a pillar, also moved immediately, came over to check, and suddenly bent down to pick up the person.
Hongyue was dumbfounded: "What are you doing? Put the princess down."
Lou Yan glanced at her impatiently: "Why are you yelling so much? The princess is so tired that she fell asleep. Lead the way and take the princess back to rest."
"Ah? Oh? Ah..."
Hongyue was also not asleep and her head was a little fuzzy. When she heard that the princess was asleep, she subconsciously took people to the princess's bedroom.
It was not until she saw Lou Yan lean over and put the princess on the bed that Hongyue suddenly felt something was wrong.
How can this eunuch hold a princess?
But Eunuch Lou is a eunuch.
But this man doesn't look like a eunuch.
When Lou Yan was about to cover the princess with a blanket, Hong Yue suddenly realized what was happening and quickly took over: "I'll take care of the rest. Sorry for troubling you, eunuch."
Lou Yan didn't say anything, turned around and left, taking his men and the two hundred copies of the Heart Cleansing Mantra that Xiao Li had copied.
Xiao Li was copying books all day long, and it was also very lively outside. Zhang De's case was not as simple as the King of Wei said, that is, murder and wife-stealing.
Upon closer inspection, his crimes were revealed, including accepting bribes, embezzling grain, killing people and stealing their wives, and sending his concubines as prostitutes.
The crimes revealed are more outrageous than the last.
The Minister of Justice is indeed very cruel.
The Mid-Autumn Festival was approaching, and suddenly there was such a big commotion in the court that scared everyone.
But the emperor did investigate, but in the end suppressed it. He launched an attack on the first day and dealt with it the next day. In the end, only Zhang De was imprisoned.
As a result, many people in the capital did not know that the Minister of Justice was imprisoned. Instead, the news that Princess Xuanyang beat someone for no reason and made him bleed was widely circulated.
The emperor received the two hundred repetitions of the Heart Purification Mantra. When he heard that Xiao Li fainted after copying it, he was satisfied with her attitude and even pretended to be distressed. However, he said nothing about the speculations and rumors outside.
Let it develop and ignore it.
So when Xiao Li woke up, he heard that he was being scolded by everyone in the capital...
She admitted being cruel and vicious, but did you say she went insane and beat people up because she couldn't get her prince consort?
Rumors can be outrageous, but they can’t be so disgusting, okay?
"Princess, it's time to get dressed."
Xiao Li was very tired. She wished she could sleep forever, but today was Mid-Autumn Festival and the Queen Mother's birthday, so she had to go.
Her eyes swept over the clothes displayed by the maids. Each piece was gorgeous, but she had no mood to appreciate them. She pointed at one at random and said, "This is it."
I didn't get enough sleep, and I don't have the strength to lift anything. Not only do I feel tired, but my hands are also extremely painful. It hurts so much that it hurts every time I lift them.
Although I had acupuncture and applied medicine, it didn't heal quickly.
Xiao Li simply closed her eyes and let them dress her up.
After packing up, she was finally able to go out. This time, Qian Hui entered the palace with her.
Xiao Li originally wanted to take Lan Yue with her, but was stopped by Qian Hui. She said that she was an elder in the palace and she was not at ease to leave things like performing rituals for the empress dowager to young girls like Lan Yue.
Whether she was worried about Lan Yue being too young or she wanted to get a reward, only she knew.
Qian Hui saw someone standing in the corridor ahead and joked, "Princess, your husband has been waiting for you for a while."
Qian Hui spared no effort in bringing her and Lu Yanzhi together.
"Princess."
Lu Yanzhi took the initiative to call for help, and Xiao Li walked over without looking away. She was feeling uncomfortable and had no time to act with Lu Yanzhi.
