The Killer's Cleansing Manual

After finally making it to the second day of rest, Lin Shanjuan remembered that he had promised Qi Yili last time that he would go to see him if he had a day off. Now thinking of this, he changed his clothes and prepared to go out.

But it's not a good idea to talk to Qi Zhaomian about this kind of thing. Firstly, there is no good excuse. Secondly, Qi Zhaomian is always paying attention to Qi Yili's etiquette and rules. Not only does he not help, he also doesn't take the initiative to ask him to go drinking with him.

The more I think about it, the more I feel I can’t say it.

She knew that Qi Zhaomian was usually in the study at this time, so she simply walked through the small garden where she went for morning exercise every morning.

But - as soon as she walked out of the rockery, she saw Qi Zhaomian sitting in the pavilion wearing a cloak.

Her feet reacted faster than her brain and she quickly turned around to go the other way, but it was too late.

"Prince Consort, His Highness wants you to respond."

Lin Shanjuan: ...You stupid fool, come up with a good excuse quickly!

She walked slowly to Qi Zhaomian and said, "Good morning, Princess."

Qi Zhaomian glanced at her calmly: "Where are you going, Juan'er?"

Lin Shan scratched his face tiredly: "Aren't you here to enjoy the scenery? I want to go to another courtyard to exercise."

Qi Zhaomian's gaze lingered on her clothes. The exquisiteness of these clothes was comparable to the last time she went to a banquet during her break. How could she wear this for an event?

lie.

"Oh, so that's how it is. Then why don't you just stay here? I'm also very curious about what you do when you get up so early every day."

Lin Shanjuan, who had already done his morning exercises, said: ...

"I……"

"I don't feel disturbed." Qi Zhaomian interrupted her excuse first.

Lin Shanjuan laughed dryly: "Ha... Then, shall I start?"

Qi Zhaomian maintained a proper smile: "As you wish."

Lin Shanjuan closed his eyes and gave it his all.

Qi Zhaomian watched her doing those movements that he had never heard of before, tossing and turning, and he became more and more unwilling to continue watching.

Not a single action was decent. Was she playing a trick on herself?

"Please continue, Prince Consort." She suddenly stood up. "I'm going to have breakfast now."

Ever since they started sleeping in separate rooms, the two of them had different wake-up times. Most of the time, Lin Shanjuan would just have a quick breakfast and go straight to the Qingzhengsi, so they didn't eat breakfast together.

Lin Shanjuan pretended to see the person off. After watching the person walk around the rockery, he patted the dirt and hurried out.

Qi Zhaomian looked at her hurried appearance, his eyes dark: "Follow her and see what she is doing."

"Yes."

Lin Shanjuan rode his horse straight to the palace, not noticing who was following him. He used his badge to get through unhindered into the palace and asked Xiaodunzi to report.

Qi Yili also guessed that she would come and had been waiting for her in the house. When he heard that she had actually come, he quickly got up excitedly and went out to greet her.

"My dear Lin, please come in!" He waved at her. "I knew you would come today. I even had the wine and food prepared. You truly are a true friend!"

Lin Shanjuan stepped in. Xiaodunzi sent away all the palace servants, closed the door, and stared at the door.

She found a random chair and sat down: "Don't mention it, I originally wanted to sneak out, and I even took a detour, but I ended up walking right in front of your sister!"

Qi Yili's face fell. "Ah?! Doesn't that mean my sister knows you came to have a drink with me?"

Lin Shanjuan waved his hand: "No way, I'm so smart, I sent her away before I came here."

The inner guard lying on the roof, recording the prince consort's every word and action: ...

It seems that the prince consort is doomed today.

[Prince Consort: I came here only after I sent her away.]

Qi Yili nodded vigorously: "Of course I know that Lord Lin is resourceful and resourceful, and he must be more than capable of sending the Imperial Sister away!"

Internal Security: ...

Your Majesty is doomed!

"Let's not talk about this anymore. You..." Lin Shanjuan was about to chat about some family matters, but when he saw the pile of papers on his desk, he changed the subject and asked, "Are you busy today?"

Qi Yili followed her gaze and smirked, "Oh, it's nothing important. Those aren't memorials that need to be dealt with. They're all with the Imperial Sister. She'll only bring them to me after she's approved them."

Lin Shanjuan: "What is that?"

Qi Yili smiled awkwardly: "The imperial sister left it to me last time, as a punishment..."

Roughly calculating, more than ten days had passed. Lin Shanjuan looked at him in surprise: "It's been so long and still..."

Qi Yili was on the verge of tears and raised his hands to show her: "I feel like my hands have become deformed. I copy books until late at night every day!"

Lin Shanjuan looked at him pitifully: "How much more do you have to copy?"

Qi Yili sighed: "Alas, it will probably take two days to finish writing, but the Queen will be here tomorrow and will definitely check it."

Lin Shanjuan scratched his chin in embarrassment: "How about I help you write it?"

Qi Yili's eyes lit up, but then he hesitated again: "But you finally made it to the palace. It doesn't matter. The emperor will punish me with copying something else at most. We might as well enjoy ourselves while we can..."

"Oh, you're so bold." Lin Shanjuan felt a headache for him when he saw all those pages. "How long will I have to copy them if I'm punished again? Give me some and we can copy them together. After we finish copying, we won't be punished again!"

Although Qi Yili felt sorry that he could not drink and have fun, the punishment of copying was right in front of him. In the end, his fear of Qi Zhaomian overcame his desire for pleasure, and he asked Xiaodunzi to bring two desks.

The two of them sat next to each other, and they only needed to recite the "Huang Yi Gui" twice, so they just recited it once each.

Lin Shanjuan's hard pen calligraphy is quite good, but she had never touched a brush before. Fortunately, the original owner of this body still had some muscle memory, and she would write and draw when she was bored, so she was not unfamiliar with it.

She was not imitating Qi Yili's handwriting very quickly. For a moment, the hall was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop. Both of them focused on paper and pen.

The sun shifted, and before I knew it, the morning flew by.

——Princess Mansion, Liuxie Pavilion——

Qi Zhaomian was sitting in the corridor, staring at the pond in front of him in a daze.

The events of the last time at the Grand Tutor's residence replayed themselves in her mind like a revolving lantern. Although five days had passed, she still felt a little embarrassed when she thought about it.

Lin Shanjuan's hand around her waist and that sudden kiss were things she had never experienced before.

Although she married many people one after another, Yue Liu usually knocked them out on their wedding nights, fed them some debilitating pills, and created some illusions to get away with it.

Even when Ye Lang and I were in love when we were young, the most we did was stand together to admire the flowers and chat. Due to our status and etiquette, we never had any intimate actions.

There was no discipline in Lin Shanjuan's eyes. It was bad enough that he pushed her down on the couch on their wedding night, but this time he was so presumptuous again. It was really abominable.

But she could also understand that Lin Shanjuan did this to repel Ye Lang's intentions, and perhaps she had no feelings for him.

Being intimate in public was a rule set at the beginning, and it didn't seem like a big deal.
