Chapter 387 Cannon Fodder Substitute & Cold Tyrant 30
It was already night when Lin Zhi woke up, and when she was about to move, she found that someone was holding her waist tightly. All around, the bed curtains hung down, and the dim candlelight swayed slightly.
It was quiet outside. I touched my head and remembered everything in Tangchi.
I sighed to myself that I didn’t expect this body to be drunk after just a little drink. I glanced at Xiao Yuan, retracted into his arms, and stared at the tent ceiling, thinking about what happened in the hot spring just now.
The system asked: "Were you really drunk just now?"
Lin Zhi shook her head: "I was really drunk at first, but then I woke up again. I was just pretending." She was so dizzy that she didn't hear what Xiao Yuan said before. It wasn't until she slapped him that the temperature around her suddenly dropped. .
Xiao Yuan's eyes turned cold, and she suddenly woke up.
But she still dared to show it off, tearing off her clothes very quickly and accusing him of biting her.
Thinking of him asking her to confess, her heart trembled uncontrollably. Until now, she finally confirmed that Xiao Yuan should really know her identity, and maybe he would bring her to the Imperial Manor. Maybe it was to give her one last chance.
Thinking of the times she had ignored his questions before, she sighed deeply. She could only be glad that he didn't just drag her out and chop her up.
"Are you awake?" A voice came from above.
Ling Zhi quickly showed a perfect smile, raised her head and said shyly: "Your Majesty, are I drunk? Did your Majesty bring me back?"
Xiao Yuan's eyebrows Still showing the laziness of just waking up, his clothes were open and his chest was exposed, and his voice was hoarse: "Yeah." He didn't say anything.
Ling Zhi looked at him, thinking about what happened in the hot spring, and asked tentatively: "Your Majesty, did I do anything when I was drunk?" Seeing him looking at her, she explained, "I never drink, listen. Said that some people would do things they wouldn’t normally do when they’re drunk.”
Xiao Yuan looked at her for two seconds and raised his lips: “Oh? Is there something that my beloved concubine doesn’t dare to do but wants to do?”
Lin Zhi hesitated, whether he was listening or not: "I don't know, I don't know."
Xiao Yuan smiled: "Really, then, my beloved, think about it slowly." Then he changed the topic and asked Whether she was hungry or not, she asked the palace servants to serve food. She nodded, her stomach was already growling with hunger, and soon the palace servants brought the food. The two of them finished eating, washed up and went to bed again.
Seeing Xiao Yuan holding a book and reading it, she hesitated for a moment: "Your Majesty, I take leave."
Seeing that Xiao Yuan did not look at her, she went out to ask the palace maid where she lived. After all, they had never lived together in the palace. Unexpectedly, the palace maid was at a loss and confused. She said that she had not prepared a room for her. She seemed to be afraid of punishment and asked her if she had done something wrong.
Ling Zhi had no choice but to appease her and prepare another room, but the palace maid said that she only prepared one room today, and she would get it tomorrow as soon as possible.
He had no choice but to return to the hall. Seeing Xiao Yuan still reading, he rolled his eyes and walked over, lifted up the quilt and lay down, closing his eyes to sleep.
“What are you doing?” Xiao Yuan’s voice.
Ling Zhi lifted the quilt and said: "The palace servants have not prepared a room for me. I can only disturb your majesty tonight. Don't worry, your majesty. I sleep well and will never disturb you and prevent you from sleeping peacefully." ”
Seeing that he was silent, he moved to his side and hugged his waist, raising his head: "Your Majesty, please, okay?"
Xiao Yuan looked away: "That's all. Once.”
Lin Zhi smiled: "Okay!"
I couldn't sleep all night.
When he woke up the next day, Xiao Yuan was already reviewing the memorial. He was a little surprised. It turned out that he had to do business even though he was here.
Don't bother him, he had breakfast and wandered around alone until he finished his work before looking for someone.
But Xiao Yuan returned to his previous attitude, as if what happened last night had never happened. He took her walking in the courtyard of the village. Lin Zhi saw that some houses actually planted vegetables, and thought that they had grown vegetables yesterday. This is how the vegetables we eat at night come from. She smiled while sizing up Xiao Yuan, wondering when would be the best time to speak.
After thinking about it, since Xiao Yuan said those words, it would be better for her to confess herself. And now that Aunt Li is missing, maybe she can be found with Xiao Yuan's help.
Besides, she actually had some confidence. Xiao Yuan probably had feelings for her, otherwise he would have killed her long ago, so he stopped talking several times.
But Xiao Yuan didn't seem to notice, he was focused on taking her to play, walking around the entire palace. Flower room, hot spring, etc.
She didn't find a chance to speak all day long.
Lin Zhi was extremely helpless. Xiao Yuan knew clearly, but why didn't he let her tell her? Did he just want to see her frightened and uncomfortable?
"My beloved, try this. The chef of the imperial village has specially prepared this special dish. If you like it, you can enjoy it."
The cook in palace attire brought up the fish. , Xiao Yuan motioned for her to try it, Lin Zhi smiled and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty." He casually glanced at the cook serving the dishes, and suddenly dropped the chopsticks in his hand.
The cook looked at her with tears in her eyes.
Ling Zhi was shocked, Aunt Li?
"What's wrong?" Xiao Yuan asked.
Ling Zhi suddenly looked at him. Xiao Yuan was holding the wine glass with a smile on his lips. She turned her head again and saw that Aunt Li had already left.
The palace lady put on the chopsticks again. Her eyes trembled. When Xiao Yuan asked if she was unhappy, she shook her head, picked up the chopsticks and took a bite, just like Aunt Li did when she returned.
I understood everything in my mind instantly. Xiao Yuan took her out of the palace not to deal with her specifically, but to let her see Aunt Li. Aunt Li was not taken away by the Lin family, but by him. Gone...
Everything was premeditated by him.
After finishing the meal with difficulty, the palace servants helped them rinse their mouths and hands, while Xiao Yuan sat cross-legged and drank tea leisurely.
Ling Zhi whispered: "Your Majesty."
Xiao Yuan lowered his eyes and just said 'hmm'. Lin Zhi slowly moved to his side: "Your Majesty, do you know everything? ”
Xiao Yuan did not look at her: "What do you know?" He stood up, stretched his sleeves, and looked at her, "I'm going to go to the hot springs. My beloved, please take a good rest here."
After that, he went straight. As he left, the palace people followed him one after another.
Lin Zhi took a deep breath and hurried to follow, but when she caught up at the entrance of the hot spring, the palace servant stopped her and said that His Majesty was not around and that if the queen wanted to soak in the hot spring, she could change the pool.
"I am His Majesty's concubine. If you dare to stop me, get out of here!"
Arrogantly and domineeringly, he pulled the palace people away, pushed open the palace door, and strode in hastily, only to find that Today, the pool was indoors and surrounded by curtains. She impatiently threw aside the curtains, entered the hall, and saw a misty pool.
Xiao Yuan was soaking in the hot spring with his upper body naked. Two beautiful palace maids were kneeling on the shore. Her steps suddenly stopped and her head buzzed.
Normally she rarely saw him using his maid. This scene not only stung her eyes, but also made her angry instantly.
He walked over and said directly: "Get out!"
The two palace maids were shocked and looked at her and the emperor. Xiao Yuan closed his eyes, and they silently put away the veil and stood up to leave.
There was no one in the room. Lin Zhi looked at Xiao Yuan and thought for a moment that he had discovered the secret. She didn't know what to say and let the mist fill the hall.
