A lowly soldier becomes king, I slaughter my way through the late Tang Dynasty!

These are Li Rui's words.

Feng Yao's heart skipped a beat when she heard this in the car.

He really did go there to avenge me!

Feng Yao pursed her lips, unable to hide the secret joy on her face.

With her delicate hand lifting the curtain, Feng Yao was about to offer her praise.

Suddenly, her beautiful eyes froze!

Li Rui, covered in blood, looked utterly disheveled.

Feng Yao's delicate body trembled slightly, and the concern in her eyes was almost overflowing!

The thought that Li Rui had done this to avenge her was unbearable.

Feng Yao's heart raced, and half of her body felt tingly and numb.

I haven't felt this way in many years.

Her lips parted slightly, a hint of heartache hidden between her brows.

"How did you get like this? Are you injured?"

Before Li Rui could speak...

Upon hearing the word "injured," Yunlian also peeked out.

When she saw Li Rui covered in blood, she immediately panicked!

Ignoring everything else, Yunlian jumped off the carriage and ran to Li Rui's side, lifting her skirt.

Her adorable little face was filled with heartache and panic, and her voice was trembling with tears.

"What happened? So much blood! Where are you hurt? Does it hurt?"

As she spoke, Yunlian suddenly turned her head.

The boy's fierce gaze fell on the clean-cut Zhao Kuangyin, and he said menacingly.

"What kind of guard are you? The commander is in such a state, and you don't even have a speck of dust on you! You deserve to die!"

Zhao Kuangyin stared wide-eyed, his face full of astonishment!

no……

The clothes Li Rui is wearing are his!

The bloodstains all over his body were from the battle he fought to the death!

How could this be...?

"Ahem!"

Li Rui coughed twice and grabbed Yunlian's small hand.

"It's not his fault, and I wasn't injured either; the blood on me is from the enemy."

Yunlian glared at Zhao Kuangyin, then continued to feel sorry for Li Rui.

Feng Yao was also deeply concerned.

But with two hundred guards watching from a distance, she, as the Empress, couldn't do anything.

All I could do was urge them on.

"Let's go back to Guangji Temple and clean ourselves up first."

"Here you are."

Guangji Temple is just across the Bian River; you'll arrive quickly after crossing the bridge.

Li Yin is not here. According to his subordinates in the Yiwu Army, he has been going to the capital to enjoy himself for several days in a row.

Soon after, Yunlian instructed the soldiers of the Yiwu Army to bring over a bucket of warm water.

She took small steps forward and helped Li Rui take off his blood-stained clothes.

A pair of big eyes looked left and right.

After confirming several times that Li Rui indeed had no wounds,

Yunlian finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Go wash it quickly, this dress is no longer usable, I'll throw it away for you."

Li Rui nodded, but then took advantage of Yun Lian turning around.

He grabbed her petite body and hugged her tightly.

"Oh dear! What are you doing?!"

Yunlian blushed and struggled symbolically a few times.

She immediately and willingly sank into Li Rui's chest.

Li Rui gave a wicked smile.

"Don't leave, help me wash."

Yunlian's cheeks flushed red, and she stamped her foot.

"How old are you? Why do you still need help?"

Li Rui ignored it.

Just as he was about to pick her up,

Yunlian panicked.

She patted Li Rui's thigh repeatedly with her small hands, and whispered urgently.

"No, no, this really won't work!"

Why?

"This is Guangji Nunnery, a place of pure cultivation for nuns. Even the Empress must show it respect. How could we...do such a thing?"

Li Rui chuckled and gently lifted the girl's chin.

"Really? I seem to remember that we were in a Buddhist temple before..."

Yunlian's head was spinning, and she hurriedly tried to explain.

"This is different! This is Guangji Temple, Guangji Temple outside the capital, this really is not allowed."

Seeing that she was indeed afraid of the reputation of Guangji Temple, Li Rui did not want to force her.

"You take a good shower, I'll go get you some new clothes."

Yunlian, her face still flushed, ran away in small steps.

She was afraid that Li Rui would force her to do something disrespectful to Buddha.

Helpless, Li Rui could only take a few deep breaths to suppress his desire.

Just as he was about to sit in the bathtub.

The door was pushed open, and someone tiptoed in.

Li Rui was overjoyed.

They assumed it was Yunlian who had left and then returned.

Without even looking, he turned around and hugged the person tightly!

I was just about to say something teasing.

But then I suddenly realized!

It doesn't feel right!

That petite girl, how could she have such a feel?

Li Rui looked down in astonishment.

The visitor looked up in surprise.

Eyes facing each other.

"The Empress!?"

"You, you, you..."

Feng Yao never expected this.

She had originally planned to come and see if Li Rui was truly uninjured.

But as soon as I walked in!

He was then pulled into a tight embrace by this guy, who was shirtless!

In an instant, Feng Yao's beautiful face was flushed with an alluring blush.

The warmth of Li Rui's young and strong body shone through the thin brocade.

Feng Yao felt that the skin she touched became extremely hot!

That broad chest and strong muscles were right there.

It made Feng Yao dizzy!

Her delicate body was sometimes stiff and sometimes soft.

Seeing that Li Rui still wouldn't let go, Feng Yao was extremely embarrassed and angry!

"Let go now!?"

Until then.

Li Ruicai suddenly realized what was happening and slowly opened his arms.

"This humble general was unaware that the Empress had arrived. I have been greatly offended and beg the Empress to punish me."

Feng Yao took two steps back, forcibly supporting her weak legs.

Her stunningly beautiful face was flushed, as if she had just emerged from a bath, radiating a delicate charm.

She glared fiercely at Li Rui with her beautiful eyes!

That bastard...

It was absolutely intentional!

Otherwise, you should have immediately let go and apologized the moment you hugged her!

Why would he pretend to be stunned and deliberately hug her for a while longer?

"Hmph, General Li's name is renowned throughout Bianliang; even the emperor cannot touch you. How could I possibly punish you?"

Li Rui's face was filled with 'fear'.

"What are you saying, Your Majesty? No matter how famous I am in Bianliang, I am still Your Majesty's subject and must obey Your Majesty's orders."

Upon hearing this, Feng Yao, who had just regained her composure, collapsed.

Another violent tremor!

I got goosebumps.

the reason is simple.

Li Rui only said that he was the Empress's subject and would obey her orders.

But he didn't mention the emperor at all!

Isn't this implying something?

Feng Yao bit her lip, feeling like she couldn't stay in this room any longer.

If we stay any longer, who knows what kind of filthy things might happen.

"Alright! Stop being so cheeky."

Li Rui smiled and nodded seriously.

"Here you are."

Feng Yao took a few deep breaths to calm herself down.

Yet she dared not look directly at Li Ruijian's handsome physique.

He had no choice but to turn his head and throw something over.

Li Rui caught it and took a look.

It is a sachet.

Feng Yao coughed lightly.

"This was made by the imperial physician. At this time of year, there are many mosquitoes in Bianliang, and this sachet can repel them."

Li Rui smiled and bowed.

"Thank you for your kindness, Empress."

He even emphasized the word "love".

It's unclear whether Feng Yao noticed it or not.

Having given away the sachet, Feng Yao practically ran away.

Back to the Buddhist hall.

Feng Yao knelt before the Buddha, trying her best to appear calm.

My heart was filled with excitement and trepidation!

the reason is simple.

The sachet she gave to Li Rui was actually handmade by her.

The fabric used.

It was on the day Li Rui pulled the arrow out of her clothes that Yunlian tore them.

Moreover, it's not even an outer garment.

It was actually an undergarment worn close to the skin!

Feng Yao wasn't sure what she was thinking either.

Perhaps they felt that the fabric of the inner garment was softer and shouldn't be wasted.

Perhaps there are other considerations...

In short, after sending it out, Feng Yao felt both excited and apprehensive.

The reason for the stimulation was that she was the Empress, the mother of the emperor.

He actually used his inner garment to sew a sachet by hand for a regional general.

The anxiety stemmed from the fear that Li Rui would discover the source of the fabric.

If he really finds out, will Li Rui think she's a promiscuous woman?

Feng Yao regretted it more and more the more she thought about it.

be terribly upset!

at the same time.

Li Rui was soaking in the bathtub, rubbing a sachet with one hand.

"It feels very smooth to the touch. No wonder it's a royal product; the materials used are so high-quality."

However, the embroidery pattern looks somewhat familiar.

Li Rui couldn't remember, so he put the sachet to his nose and took a sniff.

The scent of herbs.

It seems to have a slightly milky aroma.

That's strange, why would you put goat milk in mosquito repellent?
