After chopping for such a long time, Guo Zhun quickly became tired, and he opened his mouth and gasped, but the action never stopped.

In his hand, the sword swung tirelessly, fiercely, but cautiously, deftly avoiding anything that could make a sound, and stabbing precisely at the meagre space in the bathhouse.

Sweat fell from his forehead, rolled across his distorted face, slid through the corners of his dry eyes, and dripped onto the ground.

Guo Zhun closed his eyes forcefully.

It's like a person who has just woken up from a dream, and wants to see everything in front of him through this action.

"Is your husband bathing?" Outside the door, a familiar voice suddenly sounded.

Guo Zhun paused.

However, there was only one pause, and in the next moment, he suddenly grinned the corners of his mouth even wider, and laughed silently but presumptuously. Immediately, he smiled and suddenly raised his sword and stabbed it, and the tip of the sword pointed at it was where the sound came from!

At that moment, he was sharp-eyed and gritted his teeth, as if he regarded the person outside the door as an enemy.

"Hasn't your husband bathed yet?" The eldest princess's voice seemed to be closer, and it sounded like it was outside the door.

"Yes, it's hot today, and I'm sweating all over." Guo Zhun said.

Under the hideous and distorted face, his voice was as warm as ever, and there was no smoke or fire.

The eldest princess laughed outside the door and said softly: "Husband, I waited in the study for a long time, who thought that you went for a walk in the garden." After a pause, he complained sweetly: "Why don't you call me along?" I'm alone, so stuffy. ”

Guo Zhun had already pulled the corners of his mouth to the maximum, and the muscles on his cheeks were scrambling to tear and twist to the sides, revealing snow-white teeth and bright red gums.

However, his voice was still clear, as if he was speaking, with a warm smile on his face: "It's too hot, why should Your Highness accompany me to suffer?" ”

This contradictory expression and speech, he is extremely skillful, as if after a long period of practice, he has reached the realm of integration.

"Poof", a chuckle came from outside the door, and even the eldest princess said softly: "My husband treats me so well." After a pause, there was a sound of rustling and swaying dresses, as if the eldest princess was walking out, and then a whisper came: "I'll go outside and wait for my husband, and don't wash for too long." ”

"Okay, Your Highness, go slowly." Guo Zhun said softly.

Almost at the same time as he said this, the distortion and hideousness on his face disappeared.

A gentle expression jumped on his cheeks, and the plain breath converged in his eyes, at this time, he was moist, his eyebrows and eyes were clean, like a young man of seventeen or eighteen.

He walked slowly to the side of the small table, and gently put the long sword into its sheath, his expression relaxed and calm, with a little exhaustion after a happy vent.

After putting away the sword, he turned back and sat down on the edge of the tub, a faint smile on his lips, and reached out to stir the warm water in the tub, staring at the reflection in the water.

A tired man with loose hair and sweaty face was writhing and twisting between the shaking water waves, which looked a little weird.

"Why didn't you die sooner, you say?" Guo Zhun smiled at the reflection.

A low and deep voice swirled out of his throat, and he was like two people in plain life.

Then he shook his head vigorously.

Bitterly, with difficulty, the bun shook more and more scattered, and the voice murmured like a dream: "You can't die, you can't live, it's just a log." ”

It was his own voice, gentle with a hint of weariness.

He seemed to be completely undressed, and as soon as he fell, he fell into the bucket.

"Whoa", there was a clear sound of water in the bathhouse, and the eldest princess stood not far from the door, listening attentively, with an indifferent face.

"Master Attached to the Horse went in with the sword again." A middle-aged female officer walked in and said in a low voice.

The eldest princess nodded, Xiao Shan's eyebrows were slightly raised, as if she was a little distracted, and after a while, she flicked her sleeves expressionlessly: "Tell Liu Changshi to buy a few more swords in a few days and come back." ”

"Yes, Your Highness." The female officer replied respectfully.

The eldest princess waved her hand, and all the servants in the house retreated, and she stepped over the fan alone and came to the east room.

The wall of the east head was empty, and the place where the sword used to hang was now as white as a snow cave.

The eldest princess's face darkened, and after a long time, she stepped forward, stretched out her hand to caress the empty white wall, and a smile crossed her not very beautiful face.

I don't know why, such an ordinary smile can no longer be normal, and suddenly makes this hot summer day a little desolate......

The midsummer in the capital finally ended after a heavy rain.

In the middle of June, there were still a few days before the beginning of autumn, so Xu ordered someone to open the warehouse, moved out all the things to be used in the cool autumn, and ordered each room to send someone to collect it.

Li's body is now getting better, so he volunteered to take over the errand from Chen Ying's hands, and took the flowers in the nursery and Luo's mother and others, cleaned up the good life inside and outside the Mingfeng Pavilion, and found some exquisite furnishings from the cage, and asked people to put them in the red incense dock one by one, only to say, "The little girl's family is not so cold."

Chen Ying naturally would not raise any objections, so Li was happy and fiddled with her.

The two cases in Xingjibo Mansion have not made much progress so far, Chen Ying sent someone to ask Pei Shu a few times, but the answer he got was not satisfactory, whether it was wood carving or Xiao Zhen, there was no follow-up.

Fortunately, Chen Ying had already been mentally prepared, knowing that this matter was in a hurry, so she could only figure it out slowly.

On this day, Chen Yingchen finished practicing, because she saw that there were many begonia tree leaves falling in front of the steps, so she thought that her study had not been tidied up for a long time.

She is a person who does what she says, and once she decides, she immediately takes action, and she doesn't ask Xunzhen for help, she turns over the cabinets by herself, and is busy in a pile of cages.

Speaking of which, there are only three fine houses in the red incense dock, of which the bright room is hospitable, the west room is the study, and the east room is used to pile up sundries. Some things that are not used for the time being, or that will be disposed of later, are stored inside, and the door is closed.

Chen Ying's main battlefield today is in the east of the world.

The things in the east room are a little messy, but in fact, they are orderly in the chaos, but this "order" exists in Chen Ying's brain, and when outsiders look at it, there is no order at all.

She first opened the box containing the old things, picked out the bracers, knee pads, and sandbags that she would not use in the future, and sorted out the boxes containing the bow and arrows she had used the year before.
