After dealing with Li Su's affairs, it was already midnight, and the snow that had been falling for a long time didn't know when it had stopped, and the dark clouds had all dispersed, revealing a little starlight that had been hidden for a long time.

Standing outside the door of the side hall, Liu Xuan raised his head and looked at the beautiful night sky - without light pollution, this night sky was much more beautiful.

Exhaled, and through the starlight, he could still see the breath in his mouth, Liu Xuan raised his feet and slowly walked towards his bedroom, while the eunuch next to him was holding a lantern to help illuminate it.

I don't know if this eunuch is a newcomer, anyway, he is not very old, and today is estimated to be the first time to serve the emperor, he seems a little nervous, his movements are restrained and stiff, not to mention, the position of the lantern is not very good, and it can't play the role of lighting at all.

Fortunately, Liu Xuan didn't need to move forward by the light, his cultivation had reached such a realm, and it was naturally not difficult to see things at night, not to mention the starlight and the houhou snow that reflected the light, and he didn't have to worry about not being able to see the way.

Cao Bao behind him also knew Liu Xuan's situation, but his duty was there, so he still opened his mouth and reprimanded the young eunuch - don't look at Cao Bao who is not very old now, but he has been practicing in the palace for several years, plus Zhang Rang is teaching nearby, and now he has a bit of the momentum of a great eunuch.

Coupled with his current status as a regular attendant, he has a straight face to train people, and the ordinary little eunuch is really a little overwhelmed, and you can know that the little eunuch's frightened face is pale and his legs are trembling.

Liu Xuan didn't stop it, just watched coldly from the sidelines. After all, Cao Bao also spoke for him, and at this time, he also had to give Cao Bao a chance to show his authority and establish his prestige, otherwise how would Cao Bao do things in the palace in the future?

With such an episode, Liu Xuan didn't have the heart to continue to walk slowly, not to mention that after walking outside for a whole year, he was also a little tired now - not physical fatigue, but mental fatigue.

Hurriedly returned to the dormitory, and the palace maids had already arrived at the news of the emperor's return, and prepared the supplies for washing, and at the same time, the huge bath in the Xuan room had also been filled with hot water, as long as Liu Xuan came back, he could take a comfortable hot bath.

Even if Liu Xuan doesn't use this thing, he must prepare it in advance, in case he wants to use it in a day but they don't prepare it, it is a dereliction of duty.

It can be said that the comfort of being an emperor is vividly reflected at this moment. He didn't even need to speak, just stood there and raised his hands, and a palace maid came up to remove the clothes on his body with the fastest and lightest movements, and he didn't need to do anything more from beginning to end.

"The longer this emperor is in office, the lazier he becomes. ”

Lying in the pool, soaking his whole body in hot water, Liu Xuan withdrew all the palace maids and stayed alone in this bathroom.

When he came back, he inquired, Cai Yan had fallen asleep because of fatigue, and he specially asked not to disturb the queen, so Cai Yan did not come out to greet him when he came back.

"If Wen Ji didn't sleep, we could take a bath together!"

After running around this year, the relationship between the two of them has improved a lot, at least Liu Xuan now truly regards Cai Yan as his own woman, rather than as a tool for cultivation and balancing the power of the court.

At the same time, the turbulent things between the two of them have become more and more frequent in the past year, from the unbearable at the beginning to the gradual adaptation now, Liu Xuan is also quite proud in his heart. However, if you want Cai Yan to have any drastic response, it is estimated that it is unlikely.

In contrast, it is more likely that the sable cicada behaves more aggressively between the beds.

Thinking of this, Liu Xuan suddenly remembered that Diao Chan's age was about the same, and when this year passed, he could also take advantage of the situation to make her a noble person and truly accept her as his concubine.

Just thinking about it, he suddenly noticed that someone had entered the bathroom, although the action was very light, but who was Liu Xuan? Naturally, it was impossible to be hidden.

Even he knew who came in at the first time, and it was precisely because of this that he did not open his mouth to reprimand, but turned around in the wide bath, turned his head to look in the direction of the entrance, and asked the visitor: "Haven't you slept yet?"

It is Diao Chan who came in, the little girl has completely departed from the word 'small' after several years of development, needless to say in appearance, the figure is also very well developed, the convex convex, the concave four, at this time wearing a thin gown, was smoked by the water vapor in the room, tightly attached to the body, revealing the beautiful figure.

"I have heard that Your Majesty has returned, and I have come to serve Your Majesty to bathe. ”

Diao Chan's voice was as small as a mosquito, if it weren't for Liu Xuan's strong hearing, I am afraid that he would not be able to hear half a sentence. But it's really interesting to see Diao Chan with her head down, her face as red as a ripe apple, and even her neck is pink and tender.

However, although Diao Chan was very shy, he still walked to the edge of the pool firmly, and then ...... Idle......

Diao Chan did learn a lot of things, and even when she was a child, she knew that her future destiny was to serve a certain man, but after all, she was not very old when Liu Xuan was coming, and many things had not yet been learned, for example, at this time, she had a feeling that she didn't know what to do, and she knelt by the pool in a daze and didn't know what to do.

That appearance made Liu Xuan even happier, and he raised his hand and touched Diao Chan's head: "Wait on the side, I'm almost done washing, you can help me wipe my body later." ”

Seeing Diao Chan's appearance, the fire that Liu Xuan had just raised became more and more vigorous, he never thought that he had always been a delicate and sexy beauty in his heart and was so cute and coquettish, and he didn't know if it was a blessing to be able to see Diao Chan, a kind of appearance that others would never have imagined, and this unexpected side also made him like it.

Standing up from the pool water, Liu Xuan glanced at himself by the way.

With a height of more than one meter and nine meters, a strong and not bloated body, Liu Xuan is very satisfied with his current physical body, especially with the improvement of his cultivation, this physical body will become more powerful, and this physical body will also become his biggest hole card.

Thinking of those enemies in the past, they must not have imagined that their weak bodies in the past would deliberately temper their physical bodies to such an extent, right? Even the guy who was the best at hand-to-hand combat at the beginning relied more on the assistance of spells and magic weapons, rather than simply relying on ** strength.

"When the dragon qi of the Son of Heaven is complete, then the physical body will be refined into a near-immortal existence......! It is the day of great revenge. ”

Raising his arm, he naturally waited for the palace maid's service, but after waiting for a while, he realized that the palace maids were all outside, and there was only a stunned Diao Chan beside him.

Turning her head, she found that this little girl's blushing was almost the same as Guan Yu, and at this time, she was holding a large piece of clean cloth in her hand, and she was gesturing with her body, as if she didn't know how to start.

Thinking about it, although this girl is a kabuki raised by Wang Yun, she will also serve people in the future, but she doesn't do these things, so she naturally doesn't know what to do.

Even after she entered the palace, there were special maidservants to wait for her daily life, and it was indeed a bit embarrassing for her to do these things.

Just as he was about to open his mouth to call the palace maids in, he saw Diao Chan's silver teeth bite, as if he had made a great determination, he raised his hand and pressed it on his body - the cloth silk in his hand was not held, and it actually fell.

"Hahaha!"

Liu Xuan couldn't help laughing out loud, and thanks to his laughter, Diao Chan's competitive spirit exploded, and he couldn't hold back his shame and quickly took a new piece of cloth to help Liu Xuan wipe his body.

Looking at the Diao Chan who surrounded him like a flower butterfly, Liu Xuan suddenly asked, "How is the cicada cultivating now?"

Diao Chan didn't look up, and replied while busy: "I don't know what extent, but if you meet that kind of bronze man again, you should be able to help Your Majesty!"

Diao Chan has never encountered any enemies, and the only thing that can be used as a reference is the twelve bronze men he encountered in the Qin Emperor's Mausoleum.

Maybe the help in Diao Chan's mouth is not to be able to solve a bronze man independently, but it should be no problem to help Liu Xuan attract the attention of some bronze people on the side, so that he can solve those bronze people more easily.

It took a year to reach this level, and the speed of cultivation made Liu Xuan very satisfied. Considering that Diao Chan is almost edible now, he directly reached out and hugged Diao Chan, who was still busy.

"Sleep with me tonight!"

As soon as these words came out, Diao Chan naturally realized what was going to happen, and she naturally had something to look forward to it, although she was a little scared in her heart, but she was more expectant.

Seeing that Diao Chan didn't speak, Liu Xuan wouldn't be an idiot to think that Diao Chan didn't agree.

What's more, even if Diao Chan doesn't agree, what can she do? Being caught in the palace by herself, does she want to have other choices? Liu Xuan is not so generous, and gives away the little beauty she has cultivated for several years?

When the fruit is ripe, it should be eaten quickly, or someone will steal it.

With a copy of it, he directly hugged Diao Chan's whole person, and watched Diao Chan curl up in his arms, Liu Xuan didn't want to wait any longer, so he casually approved a robe and came out of the bathroom, and then went straight to the bedroom where Diao Chan usually lived.

This night, naturally, there is no need to describe it in detail, in short, after getting up on the second day, Diao Chan did not serve Cai Yan to get up as usual, and he didn't even see him at breakfast.

However, after Cai Yan saw Liu Xuan's very happy appearance, he knew what was going on. Cai Yan didn't say anything at that time, and even felt happy for his sister, and reminded Liu Xuan slightly: "Your Majesty, don't forget to officially crown the name of the cicada's concubine!"

"This is natural!"

As he said, Liu Xuan issued an edict on the same day to canonize Diao Chan as a nobleman, and since then Liu Xuan has two hostesses in his inner house, and the current emperor finally has the first concubine other than the queen.

And Liu Xuan's move inadvertently made some ministers who were holding the chapter and preparing to go to the table and ask the emperor to accept another concubine was depressed.

Even those who want to use the excuse that the emperor has been married for a long time but have never had a queen, and then take the opportunity to fight for the interests of their own allies, have to endure for the time being, waiting for the next opportunity to come.
