After Zhu Scarlett had been hungry and cold all day, when she arrived at Tai Chi Palace, Yan Xiu immediately ordered the small kitchen to prepare light food for her.
Even though the imperial doctor checked Zhu Sijia's pulse one by one, Yan Xiu still didn't trust her. After rejecting everyone, he checked her three times inside and out to confirm that she was really fine before letting her go to the Jingdian to take a bath.
After taking a late-night snack and taking a bath, it was almost midnight. Zhu Sijia walked into the bedroom and saw Yan Xiu half lying on the bed with his eyelashes lowered and deep in thought. In the past, when she didn't need to attend the bed, Yan Xiu was used to holding a book in his hand and reading before going to bed. .
She lifted the quilt and got in, leaned into Yan Xiu's arms, put her hand into his collar, and was held down by him. He said in a hoarse voice, "I won't force you tonight, and you don't force yourself either."
Zhu Sijia was stunned: "I want to see your injuries."
If she hadn't mentioned it, Yan Xiu would have forgotten that he had suffered an insignificant injury. He let go of her hand and took the initiative to pull open the collar. After hesitating for a moment, he decided to take off the entire top and be honest with her.
Yan Xiu: "Let's see."
Facing a muscular body that she had seen countless times, Zhu Sijia still blushed and her heart beat, especially the strong muscles on Yan Xiu's chest and abdomen, which were neatly arranged like a pile of white jade. She tried hard to restrain her eyes and not to look at him frequently. Stare there.
So she chose to put one hand on Yan Xiu's waist and abdomen as a support, and climbed up his injured right arm with the other hand. She leaned across him and looked at his wound intently without blinking her eyelids. Her long, dried hair fell down to his waist, and her hair followed her movements, constantly rubbing against his body.
She was clearly setting fires everywhere.
Yan Xiu breathed heavily, grabbed her wrist, his eyes darkened: "On purpose?"
Zhu Sijia didn't know why, there was a clear light in her eyes, and her cheeks were still red, like a drunken begonia on a drunken day, with peach blossoms soaked in dew, but she wanted to use her most beautiful and lustful face to ask him seriously: "What's the intention?"
Yan Xiu: "You ask questions knowingly, so you are naturally taking advantage of others' danger to deliberately seduce me."
Zhu Sijia didn't understand the situation yet. She was just checking his wounds out of kindness. Why did she take advantage of him again?
His majestic body made Zhu Scarlett become more delicate and slender. He seemed to be an approaching jade mountain, while she was just a small willow tree in front of the jade mountain.
For a long time, Yan Xiu suppressed the urge to use the wind and rain to grind the willow tree demon until her branches trembled. He pulled Zhu Sijia into his arms, and the familiar soft touch pressed against him. He rubbed her lightly or hard for no reason. He said:
"Cicada, can you feel that I love you?"
Although his body temperature made her miss him in winter, he hadn't applied the medicine yet. Zhu Sijia tried to get out: "I'll give you the medicine first, and then we can have a good talk, okay?"
Yan Xiu insisted on hearing her answer: "No, you have to tell me now."
His little temper popped up again without anyone noticing.
Zhu Sijia followed his intention and hugged his waist: "If I couldn't feel it, how could I let them frame me in public today and remain indifferent?"
She knew that Yan Xiu was in a bad mood because of Wang's words, and any consolation would be in vain for him, so she changed the topic: "I still have a lot of things that I don't want to understand about the cat demon. I don't know if Xuan Zhi is willing to spare any effort. Give me some advice?"
Yan Xiu regained some energy: "Huh? Before that, I want to ask Cicada a few questions."
Not knowing what he was going to ask, Zhu Scarlett's eyebrows jumped and her expression was calm: "Okay."
Yan Xiu: "If an ordinary person encountered Cicada's situation today, he would have been frightened and helpless. But when I rushed into the silver cage to rescue you, you were extremely calm. What were you thinking at that time?"
Zhu Sijia expected that he would be curious about this. She raised her eyes and looked at him: "This is what you just asked me. Just because I know that you will bring thousands of troops to save me, so even if my life is in danger, I will There will be no fear.”
"Yan Xuanzhi, I know you love me very much, so I will also trust you and look forward to you."
Yan Xiu: "Just saying this doesn't count. You know what I want."
Zhu Scarlett took the initiative to kiss him. After a long time, she gasped slightly: "I..."
Yan Xiu continued to induce her: "If you can't speak out, you won't be allowed to sleep."
Zhu Sijia: "Yan Xuanzhi, I admire you."
The little liar who would lie to him casually about love a year ago had become coy when he mentioned the word again a year later. This time, Yan Xiu was convinced that Zhu Sijia really liked him.
Yan Xiu then smiled: "Okay, tell me, can you see any flaws today?"
She was so smart, he didn't believe that she could survive the thrilling scene just by relying on expectation and intuition.
Zhu Sijia: "Because of King Xiang and Suiyu."
"His Majesty used to go out of the palace to do business. If King Xiang was in Beijing, he would definitely take him with him. But today he entered the palace on horseback, which is very strange. In addition, because of his high martial arts skills, the Queen Mother ordered him to capture him in public, but he let him go. It is even more bizarre that the Imperial Guards carried him away without any resistance."
"On the contrary, the Queen Mother and others did not realize that today was too calm and smooth, wasn't it? Even if you are not in the palace, even a fly flying into the imperial city has to go through layers of questioning, but today it is so peaceful A group of charlatans can come in openly."
"I was thinking at that time that if King Xiang was left here to protect me, you shouldn't have rushed into the palace alone. Perhaps, he was just a good medicine you used to remind me of my peace of mind, and Suiyu's absence today is even more... This has been verified. You had already discussed the countermeasures on the night I took the drug, right?"
Yan Xiu: "Cicada is really smart, but I didn't expect that I got there a little late. Fortunately, the wildfire doesn't hurt anyone."
Otherwise, he could not imagine the pain of Scarlett being burned alive in front of him.
Zhu Sijia said regretfully: "I didn't have much time to think. It didn't take long before they caught me and put me in a cage. Fortunately, in the end, you really fell from the sky and took me out of the fire."
"Why are you so stupid? You know wildfire doesn't hurt anyone, but you still rush in to save me."
Yan Xiu: "Only by proving that I am also a demon can I prove that you are not a demon."
Zhu Sijia chewed his words over and over again, but still didn't understand.
Yan Xiu hugged her and lay down: "Go to bed first. We don't have to go to court tomorrow. If you want to ask anything else, I have all day to ask."
Outside the palace, at the exit of the secret passage.
Yan Xing's carriage has been waiting here for three hours, but there is still no sign of anyone.
Eleven lowered the car curtain: "Your Majesty, could it be that the plan failed?"
It shouldn't be. This plan is flawless. Yan Xing got his inspiration from folk magic.
The special silver cage actually had two doors, front and back. When the wildfire ignited and attracted everyone's attention, their people could take the opportunity to enter through the other door, take Zhu Sijia away from the fire scene, and leave through the secret passage in the palace.
After the fire burned out, all that was left in the cage was a prepared dead cat.
Yan Xing: "Calm down, there are so many pairs of eyes in the palace staring at you, it's not easy to sneak out."
Half an hour later, two men dressed in palace maids' costumes appeared at the entrance of the secret passage, panting and reporting: "Qi, Qi, Prince, the plan has failed. Your Majesty will return to the palace early and kill us all!"
