Chapter 495 Regent, please stay (43)
The emperor strode into the palace, and his bright yellow dragon robe seemed to bring light to the entire hall.
"How have you been resting these past few days, my beloved concubine?" The emperor stood behind Liu Xuan, put his hand on her shoulder and gently pressed Liu Xuan's movements when she wanted to stand up and salute.
"My body and bones are still not fully healed, so I will be exempt from the etiquette for this period of time." The emperor said.
Liu Xuan nodded, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
"If I return to the emperor, my concubine is almost healed..." Liu Xuan paused slightly, "It's just that this scar may not disappear for a while."
The women in the palace love to dress up, and they will make a fuss over every bump on their body, because beauty is their capital, and it is their capital to capture the emperor's heart.
The young emperor's eyes fell on the back of the woman's slender neck, and his eyes flashed with distress and pain.
"I've made my beloved concubine suffer."
Liu Xuan stood up immediately and said in a somewhat urgent tone: "Where is your majesty? If your majesty had not come in time, I would have lost my life."
The emperor pulled the weeping beauty into his arms and leaned against the emperor's chest, leaning against each other.
"In the past few days, I have been mentally and physically exhausted from investigating this matter and many other government affairs. I didn't come over in time to take a thorough look. Does my beloved concubine blame me?"
Liu Xuan gently patted the emperor's chest, acting like a normal woman coquettishly interacting with her husband: "Your Majesty has many things to do, and government affairs are the most important thing. How dare I blame His Highness?"
"But... Your Highness has not been here for so many days, and I am still very angry."
The emperor laughed loudly after hearing this, and rubbed the little hand of the person in his arms, "Then I will make amends to my beloved concubine. I will eat and rest in my beloved concubine's palace tonight."
Dinners in the palace are often very rich, with all kinds of dishes almost filling the table, but there are only two people sitting at the table to eat such a large table.
Liu Xuan used chopsticks to pick up the food for the emperor, "Your Majesty, try it. This is my concubine's favorite food recently. It tastes very good."
The emperor took a sip and agreed: "It's good, but my concubine has better taste."
The atmosphere at the table was harmonious, and the two people were having a good time talking.
After a while, Liu Xuan put down her chopsticks and said hesitantly: "Your Majesty, I have something to do with you. I don't know... whether I should talk about it or not."
The emperor's hand holding the vegetables paused for a moment, and then continued his movements, but his tone of voice became lighter.
"If you want to talk about Prime Minister Liu, then don't talk about it."
Liu Xuan: "......"
Liu Xuan still wanted to fight for it, "But Your Majesty..."
The emperor put down his chopsticks, which made a crisp sound when they hit the porcelain bowl.
"I won't tell you what I said. I'll eat when it's time to eat." The emperor looked particularly irritated about Prime Minister Liu.
Liu Xuan was silent for a moment, then lowered her head, "So why?"
"Why?" the emperor repeated, "in the past few days, your father has made more impeachment reports for other officials than I have!"
"He has impeached everyone once, and the reasons are far-fetched. Will he impeach me next time?!"
The manic depression of the past few days came to his mind again. The emperor became a little short of breath and coughed a few times. Liu Xuan immediately handed over the water and helped the emperor carry it on his back.
"Your Majesty, calm down, dad will definitely not do such a thing!" Liu Xuan said.
The emperor wanted to say something else, but his eyes glanced at the scar on the back of Liu Xuan's neck, and he sighed heavily: "That's all, don't mention it again in the future."
Liu Xuan nodded quickly, "I listen to the emperor."
The emperor just said not to mention it again. He didn't mean to demote Prime Minister Liu in his words. Maybe it was because of his lover's face.
"Eat quickly and rest early after eating."
---
Those who impeached officials have not been approved yet. Seeing that this method was useless, Prime Minister Liu returned to the court.
"People come quickly." Yanxu sneered softly with the girl in his arms.
Yun Qian picked out a round cherry from the bowl and handed it to Yanxu's mouth.
She watched Yanxu eat the whole cherry and said, "Maybe it's because the emperor ignored him at all, so he was even more anxious."
Girls like to eat cherries, so every time the cherries are harvested, there are always many cherries in the palace, and Yun Qian enjoys eating them.
It's just that it's not good to eat too many cherries. It's easy to get angry if you eat too much.
That day, when Yun Qian was eating a plate of cherries, she held the cherries with her fingers and brought them to her mouth, but her fingertips felt a little warm.
She looked down and found that she had a nosebleed. When she looked back, a small wrinkled face with two bright red marks hanging under the nose appeared in the bronze mirror.
"Your Highness...Yanxu..." Yun Qian called weakly.
Yanxu walked out of the study and looked at Yun Qian's miserable appearance. For a moment, he didn't know whether to laugh or teach him a lesson.
The doctor was soon invited to the Regent's Mansion. He put down the medicine box he brought and gave it to Yun Qian to check.
"Back to Your Highness, this girl is fine. It's just..." The doctor glanced at the cherries spiritually, "It's just that she got angry after eating too many cherries."
"Cherry is a warm food, so it's better not to eat too much at one time."
After stopping Yun Qian's bleeding and giving Yun Qian two more fire-fighting treatments, the doctor left.
After the doctor left, Yanxu ignored Yun Qian's pleas and asked his servants to take away all the cherries.
"His Majesty the Regent actually deprived the people of their rations!" Yun Qian complained.
Yanxu smiled slightly without any guilt: "The regent occasionally abuses his power, isn't that allowed?"
The man in front of him was so arrogant that Yun Qian was speechless for a moment while holding out his righteous hand. In the end, he could only let out a very powerful "hum" and turned his head away from Yanxu.
Yanxu couldn't help laughing, and clasped Yun Qian's waist to turn him back, "It's not about deprivation, it's about control. The doctor also said that eating too much is not good for your health. You are not allowed to eat too much every day in the future."
"I'll keep an eye on you."
Yun Qian: "..."
Is there any way to report His Royal Highness the Regent?
The answer is no. Yun Qian sighed and said with a serious face: "Sure enough, there are always obstacles on the road to running towards each other with Yingtao."
Yanxu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "We are running towards each other with Yingtao, but not me?"
The last note was a bit dangerous, and Yun Qian immediately pinched Yan Xu's shoulders and legs knowingly, "I am with you, with you, with you."
Yanxu tapped the tip of Yun Qian's nose and wiped away the remaining cherry juice at the corner of Yun Qian's mouth.
"Let's not talk about this first. Let me show you something."
