Duan Jingyi naturally knew each other very well, and was also worried that Tang Meng would have any more discomfort, so he didn't stay too long in the palace and went back to the palace directly.

Over there, Emperor Duan smiled unabashedly when he saw that there was no one else, although he kept saying that Su Zhi should not come out of the island to find him so willfully, but his expression betrayed his heart all the time.

How could Su Zhi not understand Emperor Duan's duplicity, she sat on the dragon chair and listened while naturally taking the hot tea and fruit handed over by Emperor Duan, and was afraid that Su Zhi would catch a cold, so she specially ordered the imperial dining room to send ginger syrup over and watch her drink it in person.

Su Zhi has never liked the taste of ginger, but it is rare that she did not refuse, she held the soup bowl in her hand and whispered, "You actually allowed me to live until the New Year, aren't you afraid that the people in the harem will see me?" ”

"Didn't you come with a veil, when the time comes, you just have to stand behind me with a veil, and make sure that no one dares to touch you," Emperor Duan urged Su Zhi to drink the remaining half bowl of soup, he stared intently and said at the same time, "Tomorrow I will ask Su Mao to choose a few palace maids who are about your size to wear veils and stand by my side, so that no one will only pay attention to you." ”

Su Zhi reluctantly raised her head and drank cleanly, the look on her face naturally did not look good, and Emperor Duan picked up the teacup in her hand by inertia and nervously let her rinse her mouth.

Su Zhi muttered, "You have always had a little palace maid around you, and wouldn't it be even more eye-catching if so many people appeared at once and all of them were masked?" ”

"Let's just say that it's the trick I like, who dares to say anything!" Emperor Duan's eyes were rolling, for fear that Su Zhi would regret leaving, so he hurriedly persuaded, "Don't say that there are many palace maids around me, even if I spoil her as a concubine, who would dare to say a word!" ”

Su Zhi hooked the corners of her lips obliquely, and her eyes narrowed dangerously, "It seems that the emperor has done this kind of thing." ”

"Nope! Says who! Emperor Duan immediately panicked, his eyes were frightened like a child who had said the wrong thing, "I am absolutely innocent!" Except for the show girls who are sent to the palace every three years, I have never added people to the harem, and even those show girls live in the harem, and I almost never go! ”

Seeing that the faces of the people in front of her were all red, Su Zhi suddenly sneered, she got up easily and said, "You are the emperor, you have always been from the three palaces and six courts, and I didn't say anything, why should you be nervous." ”

Emperor Duan breathed a sigh of relief visibly with the naked eye, and a happy smile returned to his face, and he couldn't help but bargain tentatively, "Then if no one has found out your identity, will you be able to stay a few more days after the year?" ”

Su Zhi glanced at him, "Do you really think that the women in the harem are all blind, and I will leave after the New Year, so that I won't make trouble for myself." ”

Before Emperor Duan could be lost, he heard Su Zhi ask, "Where am I sleeping?" After a day's journey, the bones were sore. ”

"Sleep, sleep in my temple!" When Emperor Duan heard this, his eyes immediately lit up, and he turned his head and immediately greeted Su Mao, Su Mao naturally understood, he didn't care about listening to Su Zhi's words behind him, so he trotted out of the hall and hurriedly instructed the little eunuch under him, "Go and put on a new soft futon in Your Majesty's bedroom, and then light the incense in the goose pear tent, hurry up!" ”

The little eunuch didn't know everything, but when he saw Su Mao's urgent expression, he immediately became nervous, and he ran out like a rabbit as soon as he received the order.

Su Zhi naturally wouldn't let Emperor Duan arrange it indiscriminately, but before she could open her mouth, she heard Emperor Duan pretend to be cautious and analyze, "Your identity is really special, no matter where I arrange you, you can't hide from everyone's eyes, so for the sake of safety in all aspects, you can only ensure that your identity is not known to the greatest extent by being with me at all times." ”

After speaking, Emperor Duan frowned, showing that he was well thought out.

Su Zhi directly rolled her eyes mercilessly, "I sleep on the bed, you sleep on the ground." ”

"What?" Emperor Duan was stunned and thought that he had misheard, "When you were on Sanssouci Island, didn't you still collapse with me......

Su Zhi's face turned red instantly, "Who is with you!" That's a last resort, and now you have a lot of places and you can't sleep in the same bed! ”

"But ......"

"Otherwise, I'll go back to Sanssouci Island!"

"Good, good! I sleep on the ground! Emperor Duan surrendered instantly, and said with a sad face, "I can't imagine that I will be treated like this when I am old." ”

Su Zhi snickered, and then followed Emperor Duan all the way back to the dormitory, and as soon as Emperor Duan entered the door, he sent out all the people behind him and in the house, leaving Su Mao to wait by his side.

He personally helped Su Zhi take off his big hat and instructed Su Mao without turning around, "Spread my futon on the ground, and add a few more braziers to Niangniang, remember that the beast gold charcoal must not have the slightest smoke." ”

Su Mao was shocked when he heard this, "Your Majesty, how can you sleep on the ground, Niangniang might as well let Your Majesty ......"

This time, before Su Mao finished speaking, Emperor Duan himself interrupted him very consciously, "As long as Zhi'er is happy, let you do it, you will do it!" How much nonsense! ”

Su Mao didn't dare to say more when he heard this, so he had to do it honestly, and when he was making the bed, he listened to Emperor Duan continue to instruct, "Tomorrow, find a few maids with the same body shape as Zhi'er to ask them to bring veils, and then make a big one for each of them, don't let Zhi'er freeze." ”

"The minion has written it down, so I'll order someone to do it overnight!"

"Well," Emperor Duan still had a lot of anxiety and continued to speak, "I may have a lot of inconvenience in the past few days, but you must serve Zhi'er well, and you must not be disadvantaged in terms of food and clothing, no matter what you prepare for Zhi'er, prepare a copy for the maid next to you, don't let people see the flaws, you can remember, and!" Without waiting for Su Mao to answer, Emperor Duan nervously kept instructing, "Zhi'er has been tired all the way, and let her rest for a day tomorrow, you don't have to go to court with me, you don't have to go with me, just stay here and serve her, no matter who comes, you will keep people out, just say that I ordered!" ”

"Yes, the minion has written down and will serve the mother well!"

Su Zhi couldn't help but bend the corners of her mouth when she heard all this, she grabbed Emperor Duan, who was still chattering and commanding, and smiled, "I just wanted to come to accompany you for the New Year, why did I make trouble for you by working hard to make it simple, I am not so squeamish." ”

Who expected Emperor Duan to wrinkle his brows when he heard this, "How can this work, in the past, you lived on Sanssouci Island, and I couldn't take care of your life personally, but now I finally arrived in the palace, I naturally have to repay it twice, what you want to do, just do it, I will naturally protect you!" ”

Su Zhi's heart was warm, and she instructed Su Mao, "You just prepare some ordinary ones, and the rest don't have to be overly arranged, you can get busy with me here," After watching Su Mao withdraw, Su Zhi directly turned around and put on Emperor Duan's collar.

was so surprised that the latter immediately showed joy, "Zhi'er! ”

Su Zhi immediately patted him on the shoulder, "Take off your coat quickly, after saying that there is not a single maid left in the palace for such a long time, I will serve you," Su Zhi said skillfully helping Emperor Duan take off and tidy up his court clothes, and waited for him to change into his shirt when he went to bed.

The candlelight in the room was warm and fragrant, as if time had suddenly returned to the days of twenty years ago, when Su Zhi also helped him sort out his clothes like now, and Emperor Duan enjoyed Su Zhi helping him loosen his muscles and bones before going to bed while telling her about the big things that happened in the upper direction.

The emperor has never told the people of the harem about the previous dynasty, but Emperor Duan is the exception to Su Zhi, he likes Su Zhi to give him ideas to acupuncture the disadvantages with him, as if the woman next to him has both the tenderness of the queen and the man-like state of mind, at that time, Emperor Duan ordered Su Zhi to stay with him every night, and the entire harem was bleak by her.

But that time can't be gone back after all.

Emperor Duan grabbed Su Zhi's hand suddenly, and didn't dare to raise his head in amazement, "You've been tired for a day, so I'll serve you," After speaking, Emperor Duan couldn't help but pull the person to the side of the bed, and a pair of big hands naturally covered Su Zhi's shoulders and neck.

Su Zhi was stunned for a moment, and then the whole person relaxed.

"Zhi'er, is this strength still comfortable?"

As soon as she was free, Su Zhi became a little sleepy, nodded in a daze, and said, "If you call me Zhi'er in front of people, won't it be exposed, and you need to take a temporary name." ”

"What's that called?" Emperor Duan thought very seriously, "I've been hungry for the sticky bean buns you made all these years, so it's better to call them bean buns!" ”
