Work overtime

Chapter 327: Going to bed as if on a battlefield
After Chen Ning left, Li Beichen rubbed his brows tiredly.

At this time, there was no trace of drunkenness at all, and he felt particularly sober.

He stood outside the window, staring at the drizzle. Raindrops drifted in and fell on his face.

Slightly cold.

Third brother, is that you?

It seems complicated and thoughtful, but the more the opponent moves, the more flaws there will be.It can only mean that the other party is about to be unable to hold on any longer, and that is why he will take the risk.

Although the darkness is more conducive to conspiracy, murder, and assassination, it has a fatal weakness: it cannot afford to wait.

A procrastination trick is actually the ultimate solution to many such problems.

Governing a country does not take place in a day or two anyway, and the king of a country can afford to wait.But the opponent hiding in the dark is different. This is determined by human nature and resources.

The corners of Li Beichen's mouth raised slightly, with determination and mockery in his eyes.

Xu Fuhai approached cautiously and said, "Your Majesty, Wei Xuan will be sleeping with you today. We are ready and waiting in Qianqing Palace."

Li Beichen was silent, a little bored, and after a moment he asked, "How many more are there?"

"Back to the emperor, there are two other young masters. Tomorrow, I have Xie Cairen, and the day after tomorrow I have Qian Guiren."

His brows wrinkled again unconsciously.

Jun Wu joked that he had promised such a benefit in order to establish his authority and support Jiang Yuebai.Now it is making it difficult for myself.

He snorted coldly, and a self-deprecating sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, but it disappeared in an instant.

There was a sudden slight pain in his chest. He looked coldly at the night rain outside the window. After taking a long breath, he said: "Show me the Qing Palace."

A pair of red candlesticks were lit in the room. In the dim candlelight, Wei Xuanshi, wearing a transparent gauze, sat beside the bed as instructed.

Because it rained at night, the air was humid and the temperature was low.It's still too cold even if I don't wear any clothes.

She shivered with cold and huddled into a small ball.

Because she was born into a poor family, and because her appearance was outstanding, and her mother was officially recognized as a loyal and filial daughter, she was selected with extra mercy.

Even though he could no longer bear it, he was too timid to make any demands to the palace maids and eunuchs.

And as long as she doesn't mention it, these minions won't take the initiative to do it.

"No wearing" and ensuring "transparency and safety" are the standard operating procedures set by the leader in charge, Eunuch Xu.No one dares to break the rules just because of temporary pity. If something goes wrong, no one can bear the responsibility.

When Li Beichen stepped in the door, he saw a poor man who was completely naked, trembling and shivering, his teeth were chattering but he was still struggling.

When Wei Xuanshi saw the emperor walking towards him, he crossed his arms tightly to his chest in fear, but then he remembered the teachings of Aunt Si Qing and slowly lowered his arms.

Xu Fuhai immediately ordered the young eunuch to bring a hot charcoal basin to keep warm.

I secretly scolded these pig-brained people for not being able to teach them anything. They stick to the rules and don't know how to act according to the situation?No matter how low the status in the palace is, the master is also the master and cannot be offended.I immediately thought about Xu Fang, a bastard.

This Wei Xuanshi is also dull.When he saw the emperor, he didn't immediately come to salute or undress him, but just sat there stupidly.

Li Beichen sat beside the bed, while Wei Xuanshi had already shrunk to a corner.

She buried her head deeply, subconsciously covering her chest, then slowly put it down, timidly clutching the gauze on her legs...

His teeth were chattering, his whole body was weak, he had no strength at all, and he almost slipped to the ground.

She closed her eyes tightly, afraid of the wrath of thunder or violent storm that would follow.

A cold voice came from above, "Lie down."

He groped for the bed, then lay down obediently, his brows furrowed, with a tragic expression as if he was looking forward to death, going up mountains of swords and under seas of fire.

Li Beichen covered her with the quilt expressionlessly.

"Bring her a bowl of ginger soup."

After saying that, he glanced at Wei Xuanshi, who had his eyes closed, and left the room.

I went to the big bathtub in the next room and took a medicinal bath.There was a fire in the room, which was warm but not hot.In the mist of water, he missed his brightness very much.

Is she asleep at this time?what are you doing?Did you miss him?

He really wants it.

But he just wanted to be bright.

Soaking in the warm water, he wanted to do something, but finally chose to give up.

Li Beichen wanted to find her now, lie next to her, hold her, and wake up next to her.

Thinking of something, he sighed.

Putting on his clothes, he walked back to the room, walking slowly step by step.

Wei Xuanshi still closed her eyes tightly, and she could feel her stiffness through the quilt.

Li Beichen's hand paused in mid-air for a long time, and when he touched the other person, he was shocked by the burn.

They were all so cold that they had a fever.

Li Beichen was relieved and sent Xu Fuhai to ask the imperial doctor to come over immediately.

After diagnosis, the girl was severely deficient in energy and blood and suffered from some cold.

The imperial doctor first cured Wei Xuanshi's fever, and then prescribed a follow-up prescription to replenish blood and nourish qi and blood.After being asked to keep it strictly confidential, he left in a hurry.

"Let her stay here overnight. Jin will agree tomorrow morning. As for the reward, just follow the rules."

Li Beichen made arrangements for Wei's selection as an attendant, and went straight back to the Qinzheng Hall as planned to continue criticizing his memorial.A little ahead of schedule than originally planned.

He was so busy that he just finished approving the memorials that were due for today.I took Prime Minister Meng's memorial and read it again and again.I picked up "Historical Records" again and continued reading from last time.

I didn't know how long I watched it, but I didn't feel sleepy at all.

Looking at the top of the tent, all Jiang Yuebai's smiles could be seen.

He felt that his chest was swollen, but there was a momentary stinging pain.

Jiaojiao, are you asleep?I miss you.

After thinking about it, he decided the second before he closed his eyes that since there was no suitable teacher, he would personally teach Jiang Yuebai how to play chess in the future.

Unexpectedly, she had a nightmare. In the dream, a group of people were chasing them. Jiao Jiao suddenly stood in front of her. In an instant, someone shot her in the chest. She fell into his arms and saved him again...

He hugged Jiao Jiao's increasingly cold body and looked desperately at her gradually solidifying smile, heartbroken.
The dream was so real. When he woke up, he found that the corners of his eyes were wet and his whole body was cold.

"Your Majesty, are you having a nightmare?" Xu Fuhai quickly ran to the bed and asked with concern, "Do you need me to make a cup of soothing tea for the Emperor?"

Li Beichen sat up, caressing his chest, his face was cold, his eyelids were twitching, and he tried hard to control his breathing, "Please get up and go to Tao Rui Palace."

"Your Majesty. It's ugly at this time, and it's still early."

Li Beichen shook his head solemnly. Chou is the time when people sleep the deepest and are at their lowest defenses.It rains again tonight.The sound of rain can cover up many sounds and wash away all traces.

A good time to commit murder.

In the past few days, Jiao Jiao has been pushed to the forefront, actively or passively.The other party had calculated everything except her variable.

She ruined their plans time and time again, so she must have hated her to the core and wanted to get rid of her as soon as possible.

He didn't dare to gamble.

He desperately wanted to make sure that his Jiao Jiao was safe and sound.

Xu Fuhai saw that the emperor was always concerned about the welfare of his noble people and could not sleep well, so he stopped persuading him and served the emperor silently.

In order to conceal his whereabouts, Li Beichen only took Xu Fuhai with him.
