Chapter 182: Acting Like a Spoiled Child
Xie Tingzhou came back after seeing off Shen Zhao, blew out the wind lantern in front of the door, and placed the lantern at the door.
When he walked into the room, he saw Shen Yu sitting on the couch in a daze.
Seeing Xie Tingzhou come in, Shen Yu asked, "Is my brother gone?"
"Well, let's go."
Xie Tingzhou's robe was splashed with rain. He took off his robe and changed into another one. He walked up to Shen Yu and said, "Why are you so scared? You told me that it will be okay as long as I am here."
"Did you fight? Did my brother beat you? Are you hurt?" Shen Yu asked several questions in a row, then got up and went to light the lamp.
Xie Tingzhou reached out to stop him, but suddenly changed his mind.
The wind and rain were still outside the window, and warm and dim lights were on in the room.
Shen Yu raised the candlestick and looked at him. When she saw that his cheek was bruised and the corners of his lips were still bloody, she took a deep breath.
"Why did my brother hit me so hard?!"
"It's okay." Xie Tingzhou looked at her and blinked gently like a butterfly flapping its wings, "I deserve this. He was angry that we slept on the same bed before we got married, which was against the rules. "
Shen Yu rummaged around in the cabinet anxiously for medicine, and replied: "Then you should explain it carefully, how could you do such a heavy hand."
Xie Tingzhou saw that she was busy like a top, spinning around in the room, and felt that the beating was well worth it.
"My eldest brother is a gentleman, so naturally he can't accept such a thing. Besides, it happened to you, and I am a despicable person. I did this just to see you often. It's normal that he doesn't understand."
Shen Yu put down the medicine and pulled him to sit at the table, "Don't belittle yourself. You never forced me. The fault is also our fault."
"If we get married as soon as possible, my eldest brother might not be so angry." Xie Tingzhou said softly.
He held her hand, but Shen Yu broke away.
"Don't move. I'm going to give you some medicine. Otherwise, you won't know what the swelling will look like when you wake up tomorrow."
"If I'm ugly, do you dislike me?" Xie Tingzhou asked.
Shen Yu said: "Don't speak yet."
The two were very close. Shen Yu cleaned her hands, dipped some ointment on her fingertips, and applied it bit by bit on his injured face.
"Hiss——" Xie Tingzhou breathed gently.
"Does it hurt?" Shen Yu came up and blew gently.
Her gentle breath hit his face with her fragrance. Xie Tingzhou closed his eyes and said, "You smell so good."
Shen Yu said: "We use the same bath beans."
After closing his eyes, he felt more clearly. Her caressing hand, her breath, her hair falling down and brushing against his hand were all beckoning to him with a seductive hand.
Xie Tingzhou opened his eyes and stared at her for a moment, "Then why am I not as good as you?"
Shen Yu stopped her hand, moved to his neck and smelled it, "You smell better than me. The pine wood on your clothes smells better."
Xie Tingzhou smiled, which made his cheeks and corners of his mouth hurt, and he immediately stopped smiling.
"It hurts." Shen Yu muttered, "If he hits you, if you can't beat him, just call me."
"Then if your brother and I fight, who will you help?"
Shen Yu thought for a moment, "You can't beat him, so why should I help him beat you? I must be helping you stop him."
Xie Tingzhou felt comfortable, "Then I'll leave it to you from now on, Crown Princess."
The first time I heard him call her Princess Shen Yu, I blushed, but now I'm used to it.
After applying the medicine, she straightened up, wiped her fingers with a handkerchief, and said, "Are you deliberately making me feel sorry for you?"
"It's not intentional." Xie Tingzhou said softly: "I don't want to be beaten like this, but if I don't get beaten, you will be scolded. You have to let me let go."
"Well..." Xie Tingzhou looked aggrieved, "Maybe it was because I fell down when I was young and no one comforted me, so I felt that it felt good to be loved by others."
Shen Yu was stabbed by him again. She knew it was intentional, but she knew that it was true that no one hurt him when he was young, and she immediately felt extremely distressed.
"Are there any other injuries on your body?"
"No..." Xie Tingzhou changed the topic and said, "I didn't pay attention. I was thinking about other things at the time."
Shen Yu said: "Then take off your clothes and show me."
Xie Tingzhou looked into her eyes, "Are you really taking it off?"
Shen Yu put her hands on her hips and said, "Don't act like I'm going to attack your overlord."
"But my arm hurts a little, why not..." He looked at her, "Come and help me take it off?"
Shen Yu didn't talk nonsense to him. She pulled open his collar with both hands, revealing his strong and tight chest.
His body hidden under the clothes was much stronger than it looked with clothes on. Shen Yu couldn't help but blush and patted him on the shoulder.
"Turn around, let me look behind you."
Xie Tingzhou turned around in cooperation, smiled and asked with his back to her: "Do you still need to check the lower body?"
"No, it can't be." Shen Yu said, "Take a look for yourself."
"What if I'm injured? Who can help me apply medicine?"
"That's enough for you." Shen Yu slapped him, "Have you not been beaten enough by my brother just now?"
Suddenly there were hurried footsteps outside the house. I thought it was Shen Zhao leaving and returning, but the footsteps became softer again.
"master."
Shen Yu quickly pulled up Xie Tingzhou's clothes and walked over to open the door, "What's wrong?"
"Someone is coming from the palace." Luyao said nervously: "A father-in-law has come to deliver a message, saying that there is something going on in the palace, and your majesty declares you to enter the palace."
"I understand." Shen Yu closed the door and said to Xie Tingzhou, "I have to go to the palace."
Xie Tingzhou no longer behaved like before, he said with a stern face, "Emperor Tongxu announced your entry into the palace at this time. What happened in the palace?"
"It's not clear yet." Shen Yu went behind the screen and changed into a python robe.
After coming out, she said to Xie Tingzhou: "You can rest here and leave after you wake up."
"I won't leave unless you tell me." The bed smelled of her, which made him sleep well all night.
Xie Tingzhou held an umbrella to send her out and gave her some instructions.
"If there is any emergency, let Shunshou pass the message to me." He straightened her collar and said, "Go."
...
A bright lightning suddenly tore through the clouds in the dark night, and then, the rumbling thunder resounded through the sky, as if it exploded on this forbidden palace that had stood for hundreds of years.
The door of Hanzhang Palace was closed. Xu Yishan went to the palace overnight to report important matters, and he was in Hanzhang Palace at this moment.
Li Jincheng walked hurriedly. He didn't dare to go in without permission until Emperor Tongxu summoned him.
He asked Shen Yu who was standing at the door, "Father summoned me in the middle of the night, but he is not well?"
"Your Highness, this is Hanzhang Palace." Shen Yu reminded.
Hanzhang Hall is the imperial study room of Emperor Tongxu, where he reviews memorials and handles government affairs.
Li Jincheng just breathed a sigh of relief, and then his heart was hanging again, "Tell me what's going on? I want to know the bottom of the matter."
Shen Yu said calmly: "Xu Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice is inside."
Li Jincheng's heart sank, and he paced back and forth at the door for a while, and suddenly asked: "Du Yuhou, did Xuanping Hou confess something when he entered the palace to see the emperor late at night?"
This Du Yuhou gave Shen Yu enough face, and it seemed that he wanted to get close to her.
Shen Yu stared at Li Jincheng's face, "I only protect your majesty's safety, and I don't know about the case."
