In fact, Jun Xiaochen also felt like he was having a nightmare.
In the dream, Xu Junjun transformed into a fox that was so charming and beautiful that he couldn't help but feel curious and lured her into a trap and swallowed her in one gulp.
But when he regained consciousness and recalled the fox's cries of pain after he had bitten through its flesh, Jun Xiaochen suddenly felt a strange sense of guilt.
It seemed as if he had seduced a simple and innocent girl who was not very worldly-wise.
As soon as this thought came to his mind, Jun Xiaochen frowned and looked towards the next room, feeling that his emotions were twisted and absurd.
There are two rooms on the third floor of this inn, but in reality, they are simply separated by gauze curtains made of screen material inlaid on wood.
In the dim light, the woman's drinking movements were clearly imprinted on the gauze curtain. Her slender figure had undulating curves and a soft waist that could be grasped faintly.
For the first time, Jun Xiaochen discovered that this woman, Xu Junjun, had an appearance and figure that was not inferior to that of the Great Sage's imperial concubine.
It’s just that the two have very different temperaments, one is enchanting and charming, the other is hot and difficult to deal with, each with her own merits.
Jun Xiaochen suddenly came back to his senses when he found himself judging a woman's appearance and state of mind. He frowned tightly, took two sips of cold tea, went back to bed, closed his eyes, and quickly calmed his confused mind.
He must have been affected by the dream, otherwise how could he lose his composure like this?
Watching the candle next door go out, Xu Junjun curled her lips and was no longer curious.
After drinking the cold tea in the bowl, he climbed into bed and continued to sleep.
For the rest of the night, the two of them didn't have any strange dreams and slept soundly until dawn.
Early in the morning, the two washed up and went downstairs, meeting on the staircase corridor.
Xu Junjun glanced at the tall and long-legged man who pretended to be aloof, snorted, turned around and walked in front of him, going downstairs first.
Downstairs, Weidong and his friends had already asked the store to prepare breakfast.
Three tables were filled with soft porridge, juicy dumplings, crispy and fragrant beef pancakes, and local specialties.
As Xu Junjun came downstairs, her eyes lit up. Without bothering to compete with Jun Xiaochen, she sat down at the table, picked up the chopsticks and stuffed a steamed dumpling with thin skin and big filling into her mouth.
The fragrant oil burst in his mouth. The dumplings, which were 20% fat and 80% lean, warmed Xu Junjun's heart which had been cold all night.
Delicious food should not be missed. Before Jun Xiaochen sat down, Xu Junjun had already started to eat with relish.
Wei Dong and others looked at Xu Junjun eating with relish, and looked at Jun Xiaochen with some concern, fearing that he would get angry and kick Jun Xiaochen and the stool to the ground.
After all, the master hates being despised the most.
This Miss Xu is quite brave.
But under the gaze of everyone, Jun Xiaochen did not show any sign of anger.
He sat down opposite Xu Junjun with a calm face, brought a bowl of porridge in front of him, and started eating as if no one was around.
During this time, he also picked up a few steamed dumplings, which looked normal.
However, Wei Dong carefully discovered that his master had never touched the steamed dumplings and other food in the tray that Miss Xu had touched.
Unable to guess whether his master was disgusted or indifferent, Wei Dong asked the others to sit at two tables and quickly start eating.
In a few days, they will be able to return to the imperial capital, eat and then continue on their journey.
In the next two days, even though Xu Junjun was a little slow in emotions, she noticed that Tianjun Xiaochen was in a strange state.
In the past, Jun Xiaochen ignored her, just like he ignored the flowers, plants and trees on the roadside. In the past few days, Xu Junjun found that Jun Xiaochen was still cold to her, but the occasional glance at her was filled with a chill.
It felt like she had stolen his child and hadn't returned it. The icy feeling falling on her back made her feel a little uncomfortable.
So, on the day of arriving in the imperial capital, Xu Junjun asked not to live in the Regent's Palace with Jun Xiaochen.
Of course, it was lightly rejected by a certain domineering man.
So, Xu Junjun reluctantly entered the Regent's Palace and lived in the yard next to a certain bastard.
As soon as he returned to the imperial capital, Jun Xiaochen immediately disappeared from Xu Junjun's sight.
Guessing that he had gone into the palace, Xu Junjun caught a familiar guard and asked him about the situation in the Tianqi Imperial Capital.
From the emperor to the officials of all ranks in the imperial capital, Xu Junjun asked everything he could.
The personal guard knew Xu Junjun's identity and did not dare to reveal too much. He picked up the information that was well known to everyone, said some of the most simple excuses to evade Xu Junjun, and took the opportunity to slip away quickly.
After this, the guards in charge of surveillance did not dare to get too close to Xu Junjun, for fear that she would catch them and ask them questions, reveal information that should not be disclosed, and be punished by their own prince.
Three days later, Jun Xiaochen returned home after dealing with the backlog of government affairs in the palace, and found that his personal guards were avoiding Xu Junjun like quails.
When I returned to the study and asked, I found out that Xu Junjun had tortured all the guards in the mansion in the past few days.
Regardless of day or night, he would catch them and ask them about the political situation and local customs.
What's more, she would even force the officials in the imperial capital to answer about their private affairs. If anyone couldn't answer, she would keep asking, even if they went to the toilet, she would have to wait outside.
This strange and somewhat abnormal behavior made the guards in the mansion avoid her like mice seeing a cat when they saw her.
Jun Xiaochen's forehead veins jumped when he heard this. He was silent for a while, pressed his aching eyebrows, and ordered:
"Bring her to this king."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
The personal guard who reported the matter hurried away, and within half an incense stick of time, he invited Xu Junjun over.
Xu Junjun walked into Jun Xiaochen's study with his hands behind his back like a big boss. As soon as he came in, he did not stand respectfully aside like the others, waiting for Jun Xiaochen to ask questions.
Instead, he looked left and right, and saw a jade fan with a smooth texture placed on the antique shelf. He took two steps forward, grabbed it, opened it with a swish, and looked around, estimating the value of the jade fan in his mind.
Seeing that the jade fan was priceless, Xu Junjun did not let go. He held it in his hand and went to look at other rare items on the antique shelf.
It’s said that being an official is good. Just look at Jun Xiaochen’s study. Every piece of antique jade in it would sell for several thousand taels of silver.
I heard that Jun Xiaochen's writings are also valuable, so she will look for them later.
If she could get a few pieces and sell them, she would become a wealthy woman again.
With evil intentions in mind, Xu Junjun and the others touched enough antiques on the antique shelf before they sat down in front of Jun Xiaochen, holding a jade fan.
Looking into Jun Xiaochen's deep amber eyes, Xu Junjun picked up the hot tea in front of him, opened it, took a sip, and then said:
“What do you want me to do?
Do you want me to help you detoxify?"
Jun Xiaochen glanced behind her, and the personal guard standing beside her understood and left the study. Before leaving, he closed the study door to prevent anyone from peeping.
Xu Junjun tutted, gripping the handle of her fan and staring at the man opposite her unhappily:
"What big deal are you going to do that requires you to be so sneaky?"
Jun Xiaochen's eyes swept across her face, finally settling on the jade fan tightly held in her hand.
“I brought you back to Tianqi, not to let you visit the Regent’s Palace.
If you don't behave yourself, I won't mind letting you suffer a little."
Facing Jun Xiaochen's slightly dangerous eyes, Xu Junjun suddenly remembered that the palace guards had said that there was a secret cell in the palace that was used to detain and interrogate disobedient prisoners.
Several bloody and cruel images popped up in his mind. Xu Junjun coughed and sat up straight.
"The prince has been busy with affairs since he returned to Tianqi. I only came to ask the young brothers in the mansion about the situation when I had nothing to do.
If Your Majesty doesn't like it, I won't ask again."
She learned a lot of tea talk from Niao Niao. As long as Jun Xiaochen didn't deliberately humiliate her, Xu Junjun could bend and stretch, and change her expression at the speed of light.
Hearing the word "little brother" in her words, Jun Xiaochen's face darkened slightly, his eyes filled with displeasure, and he sneered:
"Does Huo Qiming know that Madam Huo is so reckless?"
