Le Zhengying outside the house waited for a while, and then the embarrassed eldest princess opened her mouth and asked, "Has Lord Le Zheng washed and eaten?"

Le Zhengying shook her head, and then the eldest princess said warmly: "It's a bit dazzling for me to wait here, why don't you do this? You and I wait in the main hall first. After washing and eating, let the Servant An prepare the utensils. Wait... Wait until Your Majesty wakes up before going over, how about?"

When Le Zheng heard it, the same was true. She looked at the Marquis of Zhenbei, and the Marquis of Zhenbei had no objection, so the crowd dispersed, leaving the Attendant An to lead someone outside the door and wait for the queen to wake up.

Zhong Lishuo fell into a drowsy sleep, and didn't wake up slowly until the branches in the sun. The pain on her shoulder was so bad that she moved a bit, and when she noticed that there was someone lying next to her, she opened her eyes in a panic. Zhong Lishuo lowered his head, and when he saw the woman snuggling in his arms, he suddenly sighed, it wasn't a dream.

She stood up slightly and carefully looked at the familiar and beautiful face, only to feel in a trance.

"Your Highness is awake?" Seeing as if he couldn't bear the sight of him, Xuan Jingchen opened his eyes and stared at the person beside the pillow. Those eyes were too clear, reflected in Zhong Lishuo's pupils, and infiltrated his heart again. Zhong Lishuo's heart skipped a beat, he wanted to avoid it subconsciously, and then consciously laughed, "I'm awake."

Xuan Jingchen nodded, got up too, lifted the thin quilt covering him, and got out of bed. As she picked up her clothes, she said, "Your Highness is not feeling well? What's wrong with the shoulder injury, but you're hungry?"

Zhong Lishuo looked up at her, his head dizzy. For a moment, she felt as if she had returned to the deep palace many years ago. Every morning, when the sky was misty, Xuan Jingchen also got up early, calling her while he got up.

Xuan Jingchen was very considerate, she would ask her what to wear today, what to have for breakfast, and remind her what important matters the court ministers would bring up today. Even dressing, she helped the maid.

This is an extremely caring and considerate wife, Zhong Lishuo often thinks so. Those days seem like a lifetime away now, but they seem to be right in front of you.

Zhong Lishuo stared at her blankly, put on his clothes, and asked confusedly, "Are you not letting the waiter come in to serve you?"

Xuan Jingchen was wearing his belt. Hearing this, he looked down at her and said with a smile, "No need." Zhong Lishuo nodded. After another night of sleep, this too young body couldn't carry it, and when he woke up, he was very hungry.

Her stomach rumbling for a while, Xuan Jingchen lowered her eyes and looked at her in a warm voice: "Your Highness is hungry? I'll call someone to bring the meal first, and after I'm done washing, I'll ask the medical workers to come over to take a look. Is that all right? "

Zhong Lishuo nodded, not feeling embarrassed at all. She leaned against the bedside, and when she saw Xuan Jingchen finished getting dressed, she seemed to remember what happened last night, and asked, "Wait, is Zitong going to see the ministers? How should I deal with what happened last night?"

Xu Mingyi's rebellion affected everyone, including his two sons.

Zhong Lishuo thought about the young man who had been with him the whole time, frowned, and said after a while, "Xu Mingyi has committed suicide, the mastermind Zhong Licheng has been captured, and the rest still need to be investigated and dealt with. It's just... the leader of rebellion should be It belongs to the Zhu clan." Zhong Lishuo raised his head, met Xuan Jingchen's waiting line of sight, and said hesitantly, "But last night, Lord Xu Renqing escorted him well, and he has worked hard for many years in the country. And Xu Renli was young, so he should not have been able to. Can Zitong open the door and punish them lightly for participating in the rebellion?"

Zhong Lishuo is also not stupid, saying that it is impossible to forgive sins, but Xu Renli is kind to her, and it is not easy to be implicated by the sins of the elders in the family, so she begged for mercy.

Xuan Jingchen nodded and said warmly, "I have ordered the supervisor Tiansi to investigate. If they have nothing to do with this matter, they will be punished lightly."

As she spoke, she glanced at the pale boy, and an unreal feeling came to her mind, and she said in a trance: "I ordered someone to wash and prepare meals. Your Highness will wait here for a while."

Seeing that she was leaving, Zhong Lishuo reached out and grabbed the corner of her clothes, looked up at her, and asked with hope in his eyes, "Can Zitong come over tonight?"

She was reluctant, reluctant to part again, even if it was just for a moment.

Xuan Jingchen only felt that her heart was softened into water. She lowered her eyes and said softly, "I will accompany His Highness to have dinner later. After I deal with the political affairs with the minister, I will come over. As long as His Highness is not afraid of others Just gossip."

Zhong Lishuo shook his head, thinking that even if someone said I was your face, she wouldn't care. She is not a person who pays too much attention to the evaluation of others, only how happy she is.

She smiled, tugged at the corner of Xuan Jingchen's clothes, and said, "Then Zitong, let's go, I'm hungry."

When Xuan Jingchen heard the words, he walked behind the screen step by step, and couldn't help but look back and glanced at Zhong Lishuo. Zhong Lishuo leaned on the head of the bed, staring at her back, watching her leave, and smiling back when she saw her look back.

Xuan Jingchen was even more reluctant to leave her half a step, but she didn't bring Magistrate An over, so she had no choice but to turn around and step out of the screen. No longer seeing Xuan Jingchen's figure in his eyes, Zhong Lishuo only felt that his heart was empty, and he was very lost.

But soon she encouraged herself, thinking that she had recognized each other, and told her affection, and the queen said that she would get married, and the day to see each other every day was coming soon. Thinking about it this way, I also felt that the pain in my shoulders stopped, so I just giggled.

The sunshine outside was very good. After the eldest princess, Su He brought people to see Zhong Lishuo. Like them, Su He just stayed outside the door for a while before being invited to the main hall by the eldest princess. A group of several people sat in the hall and did not speak to each other. As soon as Su Heshi came in, he was confused when he saw this battle. But he didn't forget his purpose. After seeing the ceremony with everyone, he went straight to Zhenbei Hou and Le Zhengying, and asked, "What's wrong with Brother Su? Is he seriously injured? But the night was chaotic, and I didn't ask where Brother Su went."

Yes, a lot of people were injured last night. The warriors were afraid of another accident, so they all waited by Su He's side, but they were not allowed to find Zhong Lishuo. That is, after last night, Su He hurriedly urged people to inquire, and only then did he learn of Le Zhengsu's whereabouts.

Zhenbeihou had seen him a few times and knew that the prince and A Su got along very well, so he smiled and said, "Thanks to the prince, A Su is fine, but needs to rest. Let's see her when she wakes up."

Su He nodded, then sat beside him obediently, staring at people and squinting, thinking that these people are here for Brother Su, and Brother Su is really missed.

Xuan Jingchen here stood up, opened the door, and saw Servant An with a group of female officials waiting outside the door, and he knew it in his heart. Seeing the sergeant An who was saluting with sincerity and fear, the queen said, "Go in, move lightly,"

"No." Servant An responded, and followed behind the queen and led the maids holding things in.

Xuan Jingchen came back soon, which made Zhong Lishuo very happy. It's just that when she saw Attendant An who was following behind her, she felt a little guilty for some reason. Attendant An ordered the waiter to put the breakfast on the table, then screened the waiter, waited beside the screen, and said, "Your Majesty, please wash up first."

"You should also step back." Xuan Jingchen said to her, and Magistrate An promised to step back respectfully, and went behind the screen with the maids. Before she left, she took a peek at Zhong Lishuo, looking at the overly handsome face, but what she remembered in her mind was the picture of the young man sitting under the cherry tree with the queen to enjoy the cherry blossoms in spring.

She felt that His Majesty had a different attitude towards this young master, but then she did not see the Queen again to see this young man, but she never thought that this kind of strangeness was because of this young man.

Servant An knew that since Emperor Zhao left, there was no one around the Queen. Now, does the Queen finally have someone she likes

Will this young man enter the Central Palace

Servant An thought to herself, for some reason, it was clearly a sparse and ordinary time, but she felt a little scalp tingling.

The voice of the queen washing up came from behind the screen, and Attendant An listened, and suddenly heard a voice, "Su, rinse your mouth." He was shocked, and felt that he might have heard a little too much today.

She heard the boy's refusal voice, but was defeated by the Queen's strength. Servant An's heart was shocked, thinking that the Queen, such a noble person, was waiting for the young man to rinse his mouth? Forget it, she also heard the queen say: "Wipe your face."

Attendant An was quite shocked, but he had to maintain a calm state on his face, until the queen said "I'll feed you", which completely broke the power.

What kind of pamper was the young man in the room, and would he even feed his Majesty? Her majesty, but the most majestic general in the army, with a single spear breaking thousands of troops, how could he be so gentle and virtuous towards a person

Servant An was heartbroken and wished to go in and do the work for the queen and serve the young man.

But I heard the Queen's order again, "Aunt An, call the imperial physician over to see Young Master Su's injury."

Attendant An restrained a series of inner activities, took a deep breath, bowed and said, "No." She instructed the attendant to call Taiyi over.

Behind the screen, the maids had different thoughts. Inside the screen, Zhong Lishuo faced Xuan Jingchen, who was as gentle as before, approached her, and said softly, "Your Majesty is the supreme ruler of Kyushu now, you don't have to do these things for me, you will. Let the waiter see the joke."

"I have a hand that is fine and can come by myself."

Xuan Jingchen held a small porcelain-white bowl, scooped a spoonful of chicken shredded porridge, put it on his lips to cool it, and put it to Zhong Lishuo's mouth, saying, "There is a wound on your shoulder, so don't move, be obedient."

What's more, when Zhong Lishuo did the same thing for her many years ago, didn't he not care about his dignity as an emperor

She wanted to tell Zhong Lishuo that I would do anything for you.

Only for you, invincible.
