Because the temperature of the bird's nest porridge is really hot, Qingshao's burns are definitely not light. But—

"Your Majesty, it's okay for the slave to come by herself......"

Qing Shao's face turned from white to red, she was injured in her leg, if she rubbed the medicine, she would definitely have to cut her clothes, but she couldn't do this in front of the emperor, she just proposed to go back, but the emperor insisted that she rub the medicine here, she really didn't dare to disobey the emperor's order.

But Qi Yuan shook his head, and then ordered Changde to retreat first, and there were only two people left in the hall, Qi Yuan and Qing Shao.

Qi Yuan took a pair of scissors, then half-squatted in front of Qing Shao, holding Qing Shao's leg with one hand, and carefully cutting the fabric on Qing Shao's leg with the other.

Qing Shao could only blush and let Qi Yuan move.

The fabric on the leg was cut, but the harder part was yet to come, because the scalded fabric was already tightly glued to the leg, and the raised blisters could be seen through the light fabric.

Qi Yuan frowned, and then looked up at Qing Shao, who was already in extreme pain: "You...... Bear with me, I ...... Lift it all at once, or ...... It will hurt even more......"

Qi Yuan also felt sorry for Qing Shao, but he had to open it all at once, if he took it slowly, it could only hurt continuously.

Qing Shao nodded obediently, his eyes were filled with mist, and he looked like a deer.

Just as Qi Yuan was about to make a move, Qing Shao raised her right hand, and then stuffed the sleeve of her right hand into her mouth, in case she would shout when it hurt too much.

Qi Yuan clenched his fist, and then tore it violently.

"Hmm......"

Qing Shao's tears of pain suddenly flowed down, and the burning pain in his leg kept coming up.

Then Qi Yuan quickly applied the ointment to Qing Shao's legs.

The cool ointment finally made Qing Shao feel a little relaxed.

Then Qi Yuan used gauze to help Qing Shao simply cover the burns.

If you want to say why Qi Yuan is so skilled in dealing with wounds, or say that he used to go out on patrol in the rivers and lakes back then, he only brought a few guards with him at that time, and many times he was injured by himself, so dealing with a scald was nothing to him at all.

But at this moment, dealing with Qing Shao's scalds, Qi Yuan felt that it took more effort than his own injury.

He raised his head to look at Qing Shao, only to see Qing Shao biting his sleeve, revealing a pair of bright eyes with tears.

Qi Yuan's heart couldn't help but feel pity, and he gently pulled Qing Shao's hand down, then stood up, holding Qing Shao's chin with one hand, and pressed his lips down.

Qing Shao was completely stunned.

Her pupils dilated.

Qi Yuan was just sticking to Qing Shao's lips, but in this way, Qi Yuan had already felt the beauty of Qing Shao, and that sweet feeling was really unprecedented.

Looking at Qing Shao's stunned eyes, Qi Yuan hooked the corners of his mouth.

"Your Majesty......" Qing Shao didn't know what kind of reaction he should make now.

"Be my woman." Qi Yuan spoke directly to Qing Shao.

Qi Yuan didn't want to think about what palace maid and what identity, or if he really chose Qing Shao to conceive his heir, what kind of problems would he face in the future, he only knew exactly that his heart hurt when he saw Qing Shao being burned, he liked Qing Shao, this is a fact. Moreover, Qi Yuan knew that the palace maid could choose to leave the palace when she was twenty-five years old, but he didn't want Qing Shao to leave.

So Qing Shao can only be his person.

"Does the emperor give slaves and maids the right to refuse?"

Qing Shao lowered her head and spoke, she didn't dare to raise her head, and even this sentence took a lot of courage to dare to speak, because she was not worthy of herself, and this sentence would not anger the emperor.

The emperor is the lord of the world, and many people want to be the emperor's person, but she just asked such a question, if the emperor is angry, he may push her out and cut her.

Qing Shao's heart was full of sorrow.

Qi Yuan was stunned for a moment when he heard Qing Shao's words, maybe he had barely felt the rejection, so he couldn't react for a while.

However, if Qi Yuan knew what Qing Shao was thinking, and knew that Qing Shao thought that he would be stabbed to death by him, he would probably be even more depressed, because Qi Yuan was definitely not a person who liked to kill innocents indiscriminately.

"You...... Don't like me, do you? Qi Yuan asked with a frown.

Qing Shao didn't answer, she didn't know what she should answer, and she didn't dare to answer.

But Qi Yuan understood Qing Shao's thoughts.

Qi Yuan smiled unconsciously, in fact, it is also, why do women all over the world like him, he and Qing Shao have only met twice, and today is only the third time, and even indirectly because of him, otherwise Qing Shao would not have followed Concubine Yue in the Cold Moon Palace for so many years of suffering and suffering for so many years.

Therefore, Qing Shao has no reason to like him at all.

But—

"You don't have to reply to me first, I don't ask you to become my woman now, you can think about it first, okay?"

Qi Yuan swore that this was the gentlest tone he had ever used in his life, and he was afraid of scaring Qing Shao.

Qing Shao raised her head in a daze, she didn't expect Qi Yuan to say this, and what she saw when she raised her head was the deep affection in Qi Yuan's eyes that seemed to be able to melt a qiē.

How is this possible!

Qing Shao didn't believe it, she didn't believe that the emperor would really like her, but her face still turned red involuntarily.

Qi Yuan saw Qing Shao's blushing face and suddenly felt a lot better, and she didn't feel completely useless to him.

After that, Qi Yuan wanted to send someone to send Qing Shao back but she refused, Qi Yuan had no choice but to let Qing Shao go with the scalding medicine. This Qing Shao didn't shirk it, how can she say that the medicine here is much better than the medicine used by a palace maid like her, why should she have trouble with herself.

The only thing Qing Shao is glad about is that her skirt is just right to cover her burns, otherwise she won't be able to explain it at all when she is seen by others when she goes back.

Watching Qing Shao limp out of Qianxi Palace in the night, Qi Yuan could only smile helplessly when he looked at her back.

"Your Majesty......" Changde shouted a little uneasily.

Qi Yuan turned around and returned to the hall: "Sue the people of Qianxi Palace, say what you should say, don't say what you shouldn't say." ”

Chang De understood what Qi Yuan meant, that is, to make the people of Qianxi Palace unable to reveal half a word about this palace maid. Changde really doesn't understand, since the emperor likes to be directly included in the harem, why bother......

Qi Yuan looked at the table of meals, he was really helpless, Qing Shao didn't eat a few bites at all, and finally went back with a limp.

"Your Majesty, do you want to prepare another table of meals?" Changde asked.

Qi Yuan shook his head, forget it, how can he be in the mood to eat now.

Chang De looked at Qi Yuan's poor mood and was very puzzled.
