Chapter 63: Fainting in the Bathhouse
The next day, General Yan, the protector of the country, went to the dungeon himself, drew his sword and cut the lock of the cell in half, and he walked into the cell quickly, followed by a group of soldiers.
He half-knelt in front of Dongfang Yu and said, "Your Majesty, forgive Weichen for being late, and he deserves death." ”
Dongfang Yu said coldly: "What about the dog officer and his master?" "Oppressing the people, and also paying miscellaneous taxes, is to think that the emperor is far away, and he will be lawless, and he wants to rectify it well.
General Yan knew who Dongfang Yu was referring to, and said: "Back to the emperor, Weichen has bound them all, and now they are kneeling in the public court, waiting for the emperor to decide." ”
Dongfang Yu nodded and said, "Bai Yu, Di Sheng, you and Shui Ling'er will go to General Yan's mansion to freshen up first, and I will go over after I finish my business." ”
General Yan's mansion is the only big mansion in the frontier, and the queen mother worships the Buddha, so she naturally lives in his mansion.
Bai Yu and Di Sheng said in unison: "Yes." ”
Dongfang Yu said to Shui Ling'er: "You go with them first, and I will order someone to let Ziyi go over to accompany you later." ”
"Okay."
Half an hour later, they arrived at General Yan's mansion, and as soon as they entered the door, there was a flower and grass pavilion that stretched for several miles.
Shui Ling'er couldn't help but admire, "This is bigger than King Jing's Mansion." "Whether it is the imperial capital or the Jingwang Mansion in the frontier, there is no big gamble here.
Di Sheng chuckled and said: "This place is built on the mountain, and there is a waterfall behind it, so if you want the queen mother to live in the mansion, you can't be sloppy." ”
Bai Yu said lightly: "Shui Ling'er will live in the imperial city in the future, which is much bigger than here." ”
Steward Zhang in General Yan's mansion summoned a group of maidservants and said to them solemnly: "This is Miss Shui Ling'er, a person valued by the emperor, and you can't be lazy." ”
After they all saluted in unison, they said, "Yes." ”
The maid who was the leader walked forward, a woman in her forties, she respectfully saluted Shui Ling'er, and said: "Miss Shui Ling'er, the slave maid has been working for twenty-five years, just call the slave and maid Ahe, please ask the girl Shui Ling'er to go to the bathhouse with the slave maid to freshen up." ”
Shui Ling'er followed behind Ah He, and as soon as she entered the bathhouse, a group of maids behind her came forward to help Shui Ling'er undress, Shui Ling'er hurriedly grabbed her clothes and said, "I, I'll just come by myself." ”
"Yes."
Seeing that they were still standing in the bathhouse, Shui Ling'er had no intention of going out for a long time, so she wondered, "Why don't you go out yet?" ”
Ah He said: "Miss Shui Ling'er, we are going to serve you to take a bath. ”
Shui Ling'er hurriedly shook her head and said, "I'll just wash it myself." "From birth to now, she bathed by herself.
"This is the job of our slaves, let us serve you, you just have a good rest."
Ah He chuckled and leaned towards Shui Ling'er, who hurriedly pushed her out, and then said to the maids next to her, "You go out too." ”
When the maids saw Ah Ho being pushed out, they looked at each other, saluted and left.
When only Shui Ling'er was left in the bathhouse, she hurriedly closed the door.
Ah He stood outside and said respectfully: "Miss Shui Ling'er, if you have any orders, you can call the slave and maid." ”
"Okay."
Shui Ling'er took off her clothes, rinsed her body casually, and jumped into the pool sprinkled with flower petals.
Since leaving Situ Jing, she hadn't taken a bath like this.
She happily swam everywhere, washed her body, and soaked her body in the pool water, revealing only one head.
Half an hour later, Ah He couldn't help but knock on the door worriedly and said, "Miss Shui Ling'er, have you taken a bath?" ”
For a moment, no voice answered her, and she said worriedly, "Did you faint inside?" "This pool of water is a hot spring water flowing down from the mountains, and it has the effect of nourishing and beautifying the skin, and if you soak it for too long, it is easy to faint.
Just as Ah He was about to open the door and enter, Dongfang Yu happened to come over, Ah He hurriedly stepped forward and saluted, and said anxiously: "Your Majesty, Miss Shui Ling'er has been inside for half an hour, and she hasn't come out yet, and the slave is worried that she will faint inside." ”
Dongfang Yu frowned, he quickly walked to the door, pushed open the door and walked in, and saw Shui Ling'er's face flushed, lying next to the pool with his eyes closed, and his body was still soaked in the water.
Dongfang Yu jumped into the pool quickly and picked up Shui Ling'er, who was naked.
Ah He and a group of maidservants stepped forward to take it, and hurriedly dried Shui Ling'er and put on her clothes and skirts.
Dongfang Yu said solemnly: "In the future, she will take a bath in the bathhouse, and someone will watch her." ”
Ah He said respectfully: "Yes." ”
Dongfang Yu saw that Shui Ling'er was taking care of them, so he walked out and walked towards the courtyard that Steward Zhang had prepared for him, to change out of his soaked clothes.
Half an hour later, Shui Ling'er woke up from the bed, she saw Ziyi who was shaking a fan in front of her, and she wondered: "Ziyi, why am I here?" She remembers that she was bathing in a bathhouse.
Ziyi chuckled and said, "You fainted, it was the emperor who carried you out of the bath." ”
Shui Ling'er was stunned, her face suddenly flushed, and said, "Then isn't my body being looked at?" ”
"Yes." Ziyi thought to herself, Shui Ling'er will become the emperor's woman in the future, and now she is looked at, there is no difference.
Shui Ling'er said with rare embarrassment: "Then how will I see him in the future, and I am Brother Jing's concubine." ”
When Ziyi heard Brother Jing, her face turned gloomy, and she said lightly: "Shui Ling'er, Situ Jing forgot about you, and you have left him now, just forget him and start over." ”
Shui Ling'er lowered her head and said, "I really want to forget him." She pressed her chest and said, "But it hurts here." Every time she thought of Situ Jing, she hurt so much that it made her nose sore.
"Stop thinking about him." Ziyi put down the fan, got up and brought a bowl of ginger soup, and said, "Drink this, so as not to catch a cold." ”
"Hmm." Shui Ling'er took the bowl, and after drinking the ginger soup, she saw Dongfang Yu open the door and walk in.
Shui Ling'er remembered that Ziyi said that her body was all seen by him, which made her choke several times at once.
Dongfang Yu walked quickly to her and sat down, patted her on the back, and said, "Drink slowly, it's uncomfortable to choke." ”
The purple-clothed face got up and saluted and left.
Shui Ling'er said: "Brother Yu, my body has been seen by you. In this way, how will she face Situ Jing in the future.
Dongfang Yu said with a smile: "Don't worry, I will be responsible." ”
"No, I'm Brother Jing's concubine." Even if she left him, her identity was still there.
