Chapter 12: Soaking in the Bath

It was already dark when Dr. Han left, and I was lying alone on the agarwood stepping bed, staring at the tasseled curtain. Things have gone fairly smoothly so far, not only have I met Willow, but my identity has not been suspected. It seems that I do look a lot like the killer named Tassel, but he seemed disappointed when I called Willow's name before, what did this Tassel call him before?

In line with the principle of pleasing Verlo, I dressed up and walked very diligently from Verlo's bedroom, the Jingxuan Hall, to the Qiushi Palace, which is where Vero handles government affairs.

Today's commotion made the maids and eunuchs in the palace recognize my status, and the eunuch in charge respectfully led me to the Qiushi Hall and led a group of palace people to retreat, leaving only me and Wei Luo in the palace.

Veroyue's white robe was replaced by a white brocade robe, and a dark coat was draped over it. He was looking down and carefully reviewing the piles of folds on the desk. I tiptoed to his side, stretched out my head to look at the dense words on the folds, and suddenly felt dizzy, and I didn't know what time he was going to see such a pile of folds.

"Why don't you take a little rest?" Willow closed the fold with one hand and set it aside, looking up at me.

"I slept a lot, but I felt tired. It's you who should be resting, right, and before the injury is healed, you came to approve the folds. I squeezed over to him and sat down, "Why don't I have Ni Meng bring some snacks?" ”

Willow lifted the corners of his forehead to wipe away the tired look and said, "What time is it?" ”

"It's already time." I boredomly tapped my index finger over the edge of the desk and replied nonchalantly.

"Tassels." Willow called out abruptly, and I turned my head to look at him in confusion. He slowly raised his right arm, his slender fingers gently running through my long hair, and with a little force, he took me into his arms. I pressed my face against his broad chest, and I could clearly hear his powerful heartbeat.

"Will you stay? If you can't kill me, will you leave? He kissed my forehead tenderly with his warm lips with deep affection, and then asked in a choked voice.

This Yiwang is really very set, if I am a tassel, I will definitely be moved beyond measure, but unfortunately I am not. Although his affectionate drama made me disdainful, for the purpose of this trip, I would still cooperate with him to act.

"Don't worry, I will stay and won't leave you." I looked up from his arms and said softly with a gentle look in my eyes.

His dark eyes instantly darkened after a pause, and I estimated that I had called the wrong name again, so I hurriedly changed my words: "No, it's not the king, it's Willow." ”

Willow pulled the corners of his mouth and chuckled in frustration, and helped me to stand up: "You're hungry, let's go to dinner first, and send someone to pack up your things later, and then you can live in my Yeyang Palace." ”

"Huh? This, that's not quite in line, is it? I looked at him in surprise, "Besides, I'm going to get in the way of your ......."

"No, as long as I don't get in your way." Willow replied very simply, and then walked out of the Autumn Fruit Hall with my waist in his arms.

After dinner, Ni Meng led a group of internal supervisors to send all my things to Yeyang Palace, of course, including Huanhuan and Chasing the Wind, as well as the four large vat of spring water.

Thinking that Willow was injured, the spring water of this blue spring could give him some bath, so he kindly ordered the maid to fetch some spring water to heat it, and then pushed Willow, who was standing beside him, into the bathroom of the West Side Hall.

Willow stepped at his foot and dragged me in with his backhand, he turned around and closed the door and said, "My hands are inconvenient, you come and help." ”

I used to think I was a pretty eloquent person, but after meeting Willow, I was short of words most of the time. But thinking that he showed me naked, and I had nothing to lose, I cleared my throat and said softly: "This is the blue spring water I brought from Lou Wang's Palace, which can cure all kinds of diseases, and the injuries on your body should be healed after soaking for a few days." ”

"Today, Doctor Han checked your pulse and said that you have an old wound in the back of your head, and you brought these springs here for healing?" He walked slowly to the tub, the warm spring water bubbling with mist over his frown.

"Well, I used to have headaches before, so I brought it here, but now that I'm in good health, I don't need this. You can keep the rest of the spring water and use it well, even if there is no injury or pain, you can relieve your fatigue. I picked up the bamboo basket on the table and raised my hand to sprinkle some petals into the tub.

Willow stretched out his hand to stop me and said, "I don't like the smell of flowers." ”

"So what do I like?" Holding the basket in my arms, I looked at Willow with a smile on my face. He coughed dryly and waved his hand: "Then let's sprinkle more." ”

I shook my head proudly and poured all the petals in my arms into the tub.

"If you like the fragrance, wait for me to order someone to burn some spices in the Jingxuan Palace, and then go back and dry some petals and put them in the sachet for you." Willow said as he unbuttoned his shirt with one hand and stepped into the tub.

My face suddenly became a little hot, so I hurriedly raised my hands and pressed the cold backs of my hands against my cheeks, which lowered the temperature slightly. But this Willow's figure is really good, it looks like a thin body, but in fact it is all tight muscles.

He was bandaged from his left shoulder to his left arm, and I was worried that his wound would get wet, so I graciously stepped forward and dragged his arm up.

"Tassel, we haven't seen each other for nearly a year since Xuanshan said goodbye, your senior brother hid you very well, I secretly sent so many people to Lou Guo and still didn't find out about you, but fortunately, we have a fate, you see, God sent you to me again." Willow's fair face was hidden in the mist, and I couldn't make out the expression on his face when he said this.

It's easy to debunk the past of my identity, and I don't want to mention it more, so I diverted his topic and said: "Today's Han Doctor's medical skills are very good, why don't you seal a royal doctor for her!" ”

He paused, Xu didn't expect me to change the topic, and only replied to me after a long time: "She is from Lou Guo, and I met you when I went to Lou Guo to look for you." Seeing that her medical skills were exquisite, and it was indeed a talent to be a wandering man, he brought her back to the palace. I also wanted to reward her, but she didn't want to, saying that she didn't like the life of the palace and didn't want to force her, so I gave her a token to enter and leave the palace gate freely. ”

Free access to the palace gates? This token is very good, and it would be nice if Willow rewarded me with one!

"Why don't you speak again? Your temperament is getting heavier and heavier now, and you are not as lively and active as before. I know that you still have nostalgia for the past in your heart, and I will find a way to make it up to you and do my best to be good to you. Willow stroked my cheek with his right hand with warm steam, and leaned slightly sideways.
