With his slender fingers, he grasped her small, snow-white feet and put them into the basin without any disgust.

Seeing him washing his feet carefully, Su Changzhao felt a little uneasy.

[Fuck, is the dog emperor serious? ]

[Has he lost his acting skills? Does he really think he is Shi Lianyu, my mistress?]

[How can you tolerate foot washing? Even Gou Jian, the King of Yue, couldn't tolerate it! ]

Just finished complaining.

Suddenly.

Yu Jiuchen clasped his hands on the soles of Su Changzhao's feet.

Su Changzhao hummed instinctively, although she quickly stopped and held it in.

But the voice in her heart still betrayed her.

[It itches so much! ]

[I must hold it in. I must not let the dog emperor know that I am ticklish! ]

Yu Jiuchen lowered his head and raised the corners of his lips at an angle where Su Changzhao couldn't see: So you have this weakness.

then--

His fingers silently touched the soles of the little feet in the water.

Su Changzhao clenched his hands on the armrest, his breathing stagnated, and he clenched his teeth.

【What the hell! 】

Punching the wall internally.

[I can’t take it anymore! It’s so itchy! ]

[I want to laugh so much, I can’t hold it back! ]

Just when she was about to break through her defense, Yu Jiuchen suddenly let her go.

But before she could catch her breath, Yu Jiuchen used the same trick again.

This time Su Changzhao directly pulled his feet out of the water.

"Enough." With a rustling sound and a cold tone, she stepped her wet feet into Yu Jiuchen's shoulders.

“…”

Noticing that Yu Jiuchen's expression was not right, Su Changzhao smiled.

Then he stepped his other foot over.

I was extremely proud in my heart: [Dog Emperor, you can’t help it, right? ]

[You've never been humiliated like this in your life, right? Hahahaha...]

[It doesn’t matter if you refuse to admit it, let’s play slowly, I’ll wait for you to lose control and reveal your identity! ]

Unexpectedly, I wasn’t happy for even two seconds.

Instead of getting angry, the other person grabbed her sleeve and obediently wiped the water stains off her feet. His movements were so gentle and careful.

This feeling... is like punching soft cotton, without even a sound.

Su Changzhao was a little angry, so he immediately pulled his foot back and walked towards the bed with his shoes on.

After all, after washing your feet you should go to bed.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she came over and sat down, someone followed her.

Su Changzhao sat on the bed, as if defending his territory, with his hands stretched out to both sides, and pointed his chin at the opposite side: "Your nest is over there, I don't need you to serve me tonight."

Li Xing has delivered Yu Jiuchen's new clothes and crib today.

Although the bed is small, it is more than enough for him to sleep alone. The key is that this bed is made one-to-one according to the one when Su Changzhao kept watch for Yu Jiuchen in the Longdu Palace.

[I used to keep watch for you, you dog emperor. Didn't you expect that the situation would change? ]

"Yes." Yu Jiuchen responded obediently, turned around and walked towards his own bed.

Seeing this, Su Changzhao also lay down with his clothes on.

She deliberately did not take off her clothes to prevent someone from having any bad intentions at night.

Unexpectedly, just as she pulled the quilt over her, she saw the other person start to undress. He took off layer after layer with great skill.

Su Changzhao hurriedly shouted: "What are you doing?"

Yu Jiuchen paused, and explained with innocence in his long eyes: "My clothes are wet, I need to take them off so I can sleep better."

The tone of these words made it sound like Su Changzhao was asking the stupidest question.

Can.

Su Changzhao stared at his hands on his waist: "So... your pants are wet too?"

Yu Jiuchen blushed slightly and said, "Lianyu... has never liked to sleep with clothes on since she was a child..."

puff!

[I don't believe you! ! ]

Seeing Yu Jiuchen taking off his clothes again, Su Changzhao directly ordered: "Don't take them off! Go to bed and sleep!"

Yu Jiuchen pretended to be timid and did as he was told immediately.

Seeing that he finally stopped making trouble, she obediently went to bed and covered herself with the quilt.

Su Changzhao breathed a sigh of relief.

But for fear of any unexpected situation, she didn't sleep much that night.

It was not until the rooster crowed the next day that she closed her eyes for a while.

But when she woke up again, she found herself sleeping next to someone.

The key point is that this bed is the other person’s small bed.

So...her old problem came back again?

[Again? ]

[When did I develop this weird habit of climbing into bed? ]

【I saw a ghost! 】

She planned to leave quickly before Yu Jiuchen woke up.

He stood up, got down, and took only two steps.

Boom boom!

There was a sudden knock on the door.

Su Changzhao lowered his eyes and thought to himself, it's over.

As expected, a voice behind him said: "Sir, you..."

Su Changzhao turned around and saw that the handsome man immediately pretended to be an innocent little white flower and grabbed the quilt to wrap himself.

It felt like someone was taking advantage of me, and I felt helpless and panicked.

Su Changzhao said coldly: "Don't think too much, I just... the bed is too big and it's a bit cold to sleep on, so I squeezed in with you."

Yu Jiuchen: “…”

[Fuck, this excuse is so lame, I don’t even believe it. Next time I sleep, I have to tie a rope around myself~]

At this time, Li Xing's voice came from outside the door: "Sir, are you awake?"

Su Changzhao quickly grabbed his clothes, put them on and went out.

She didn't notice the amusement in Yu Jiuchen's mouth.

·

Due to Yu Jiuchen's special situation, Su Changzhao had already ordered to cancel the daily meal delivery to her room. Li Xing came now, probably because he had found out the news about Yulong Kingdom.

Yes, after recognizing Yu Jiuchen yesterday, she sent Li Xing to investigate the recent movements of Yulong Kingdom.

Since Yu Jiuchen came to the Mingshui Ghost City alone, he was probably at war with some country.

This is the original plot. After quelling the civil strife and dealing with the big villain, the next step is to go on expeditions everywhere while collecting treasure maps and searching for treasures.

Furthermore.

If he had known that she was the Ghost King of Netherwater, Yu Jiuchen would never have come to the ghost town alone.

It's almost like he led his troops to besiege a ghost town.

So there must be something she doesn't know.

After Su Changzhao and Li Xing left.

Li Xing reported to her all the information he had found out.

It turned out to be just as she expected.

After Yu Jiuchen destroyed two small countries one after another, King Qing of Qing Kingdom could no longer sit still. He wanted to take advantage of Yu Jiuchen's recuperation to catch him off guard. Not to mention destroying Yulong Kingdom, at least he could prevent Yu Jiuchen from sending troops abroad for ten years.

Prince Qing took advantage of Yu Jiuchen's intention to seek help from Ghost Town in order to replenish food and weapons.

so--

"No wonder the people of Qing are willing to spend a lot of money to customize weapons from Ghost Town. It turns out that they want to take the lead and cut off Yulong's retreat." Su Changzhao said lightly.

Li Xing: "Then what should we do next? The people of Qing are still refusing to leave the city. I have also found out that your majesty... the Dragon Emperor was ambushed by the people of Qing near Mingshui Mountain not long ago and his whereabouts are still unknown. Do you want to..."

Li Xing didn't say anything else.

He had been paying attention to Su Changzhao's attitude.

He knew that Su Changzhao could never let go of the woman in the Longdu Palace, but since Su Changzhao didn't say it, he didn't say much.

He always felt that there was something fishy about what happened back then.

Because on the way to the palace to pick up Su Changzhao, he heard the palace people talking about the Dragon Emperor personally selecting gifts for the Ninth Thousand Year Old.

That is the founding ceremony, in which various countries present treasures.

How could a person who was about to kill Su Changzhao choose a gift carefully?

Li Xing originally wanted to tell Su Changzhao about his doubts, but later he missed the best opportunity due to the complexity of city building. Later, Su Changzhao ordered everyone to forget the past and not mention anything about the Yulong Kingdom anymore, and everyone started over.

That is to start over again. Li Xing knew that Su Changzhao was planning to forget the past and his old friends, so he did not mention it again.

"Go ahead and do your work. Keep what you just said a secret from everyone."

"..." Li Xing originally thought that since something had happened to the Dragon Emperor, Su Changzhao would definitely be anxious to find someone, but she didn't seem to be worried at all. She silently concealed her confusion and bowed her hands to accept the order: "Yes."

"Also," Su Changzhao suddenly remembered something, "I will not go to the meeting hall today. You will handle the official business temporarily. If you cannot handle it, wait until I come back to handle it."

"I obey your command. My lord, do you want to go to the ghost market today?" Li Xing asked a rare question.

The fourth day of every month is the day when the ghost market opens. On that day, peddlers from all over the world sell their goods on Wuchang Road in the city, making it quite lively.

Su Changzhao raised his eyebrows when he heard this: "What do you mean? What's so special about the ghost market today?"

She knew Li Xing, and he would not mention this unless it was something special.

"I heard that a wizard who knows the past and the future and can see through everything has come to the city. He will set up a stall at No. 144 on Wuchang Road today to tell fortunes. Many people have lined up to see him."

"Knowing the past and the future, seeing through everything..." Su Changzhao repeated calmly, and a plan suddenly came to his mind: "That will take some time."
