Zhao Yan lay lazily in the five-spice soup bath.
The snow-white toes carelessly fiddled with the petals on the water, causing ripples in circles.
Gu Xu filled a wooden ladle with cold water and walked to the wooden bathtub. This tub is large, more than enough for two people.
His eyes passed through the dense mist and saw Zhao Yan's pretty cheeks, uneven collarbones, fair and rosy skin, and slim and graceful shoulders.
The soft hair stretches elegantly in the water, like a blooming flower swaying in the wind.
"Husband, why are you standing there so still?" Zhao Yan turned her head to look at him and smiled softly.
She seemed to like calling Gu Xu by different names today.
"It's not because the lady is so beautiful that I was temporarily fascinated." Gu Xu said with an honest expression.
He stepped forward and poured cold water into the tub.
The cold water opened the floating petals, giving Gu Xu a brief glimpse of the dazzling white snow.
His eyes couldn't help but be in a daze for a moment.
At this moment, Zhao Yan suddenly reached out and yanked his arm.
Gu Xu staggered and tried to regain his footing.
But Zhao Yan seems to have secretly used her true energy.
Gu Xu really couldn't resist the terrifying power of a sixth-level warrior, especially such a sneak attack when he was unprepared.
Only a "plop" was heard.
As Zhao Yan covered her face and chuckled, he fell into the tub, splashing high with water.
His green shirt was instantly soaked.
"Master Gu, Qiu Yan just told me that you don't want her to help you bathe and change clothes." Zhao Yan lowered her head with a smile and reached out to untie his belt. "In that case, I will do it myself. What do you think?" how?"
…………
The next morning, Gu Xu woke up on Zhao Yan's soft bed.
Ever since he was wanted by the Daqi Dynasty, he had either been running or practicing every night. He rarely had the chance to sleep as soundly as he did today.
At this time, Zhao Yan was lying sideways in his arms. He hugged her from behind.
Her head rested on his arm, making him feel slightly numb.
Looking at her messy hair and the reddish marks on her neck, he couldn't help but recall her crazy performance last night.
Although I didn't get to the last step.
But Zhao Yan didn't know where she learned a lot of fancy tricks, from the bathtub, to the dressing table, to the carpet, and then to the bed, torturing Gu Xu until late at night, making him exhausted.
She seemed to want to vent all her deep longing for him for thousands of years in one night.
Gu Xu has never been so eager to advance to the realm of saints as he is today.
If he doesn't rebuild his body quickly, how will he be able to withstand the torture of this monster in the future?
"Good morning, Master Gu!"
At this time, Zhao Yan raised her head slightly and spoke in a lazy tone.
She actually woke up early. But because she was greedy for Gu Xu's arms, she had been pretending to sleep just now.
Seeing Gu Xu make some movement, she turned over, sat astride him, and looked down at him.
The long, silky hair fell straight down, forming a dark waterfall between the two of them.
"Yan'er, haven't you had enough fun?"
Gu Xu's fingertips brushed across the round curve of her thigh.
"You can never have enough fun." Zhao Yan leaned down and gently outlined his flawless facial features with her lips, from his forehead to his eyes to his nose and then to his lips.
This was the day Zhao Yan was in the best mood in months.
Her father, who was struggling with death, regained his life.
Her lover, who was thousands of miles away, returned to her.
Thousands of years of waiting have finally come to an end.
If she was asked what else she was dissatisfied with, it would be that Gu Xu was too greedy - it would be great if he belonged to her alone.
A folded talisman suddenly appeared between her fingers.
"What is this?" Gu Xu asked.
"It's a body-binding talisman," Zhao Yan said with a joking smile, "Don't forget that you used this thing against me at the 'Luoshui Conference'. Now, it's time for me to take revenge!
"I'm going to tie you up in this room. You're not allowed to go anywhere. You can only serve me."
After that, she began to recite in a low voice a spell that she had not memorized at all.
"Your Majesty, you seem to have forgotten a very important thing," Gu Xu smiled, "I am a Fu Zhuan Master personally certified by the Grand Master of Qi."
He had already seen that the "Binding Talisman" in Zhao Yan's hand was drawn with an extremely average technique, which was far inferior to his own level. It was a piece of cake to crack it.
Zhao Yan recited the mantra, and he also recited the mantra silently.
A few seconds later, the plump and soft body of Lord Dayan turned into a rice dumpling again.
Gu Xu chuckled, turned over and pressed her down, watching her long eyelashes trembling slightly in the morning light.
"You bastard, let me go!"
Zhao Yan twisted her body and pretended to be angry.
Gu Xu couldn't help but sigh that she had entered a new role so quickly - after all, with her current cultivation level, this ordinary rope couldn't restrain her at all.
"Give up your struggle, beauty," he smiled evilly, pretending to be a villain, lowered his head and kissed her white neck, "Once you are in my hands, you will never be able to escape in this life..."
…………
It wasn't until noon that the two of them got dressed and walked out of the room.
"The sages are right, beauty spoils the country," Zhao Yan sighed as she looked at the sun rising high in the sky. "I accidentally missed the morning meeting. Those ministers will definitely secretly say that I am a foolish king. .
"Are you right, Concubine Gu Yao?"
Gu Xu used the astrolabe to glance at the palace lobby not far away, and responded with a smile: "There is no need to worry, Your Majesty. Your father has already taken your place in the lobby to discuss matters with the courtiers."
Fathers and children jointly hold the power of the country - if it were in other places, there would be a struggle for power and profit, and "the father is kind and the son is filial".
But Zhao Yan looked very relaxed.
For her, it is an extremely happy thing to have a strong father living in the world to protect her from wind and rain.
As for the title of "King Yan", she actually didn't care at all.
Zhao Changying's appearance undoubtedly caused a strong sensation among the officials in the northern border.
Direct subordinates such as Hu Yanxiao and Cai Shuo were all moved to tears when they saw Zhao Changying.
They knew that Zhao Changying's soul was in a very bad state before seclusion, and they thought they would never see the old master again in this life - but they didn't expect that he could come out of the secret room and lead them onto the battlefield again.
Some capitulationists and wall-worn factions, such as the remaining members of Zhao Changqi and his son, are deeply troubled by this. After all, it is much more difficult to do things quietly under the nose of the sophisticated Zhao Changying than in front of the young Zhao Yan.
However, Zhao Changying had no intention of taking back the power of King Yan from his daughter.
He repeatedly emphasized that he was just an idle old man now and would not allow his subjects to call him "King" anymore, but would instead call him "Tai Gong".
