Because of this accident, the little emperor no longer had any interest in horse racing.
She followed Jun Xiaochen obediently and sent Xu Junjun to the elegant building in the villa to rest.
Xu Junjun was unable to move, so Jun Xiaochen stretched out his arms, picked her up and carried her away from the racecourse in an extremely intimate posture.
Xu Junjun was still frightened on the horse and was being held by Jun Xiaochen, so she didn't realize anything was wrong.
At this moment, in front of everyone and with her life not in any danger, Xu Junjun felt so awkward that she didn't know what expression to make.
Pushing Jun Xiaochen's shoulder hard, Xu Junjun was embarrassed and angry:
"Put me down, I can walk by myself!"
Jun Xiaochen glanced at her swollen ankle, then lowered his eyes to stare into Xu Junjun's dark eyes:
"Do you think we can return to the city today after you duck to Yalou?"
Xu Junjun was furious:
“Asshole, you’re the duck, and you’re a top duck!
Put me down now! Even if I have to use a crutch, I don’t want you to hold me!”
As she spoke, Xu Junjun struggled hard, but she didn't expect the man's arms to be like iron clamps, firmly holding her waist and knees without loosening at all.
Xu Junjun refused to believe it and was about to continue struggling when a man's cold and threatening voice came from above her head:
"If you continue to struggle, I will press your numb points."
Xu Junjun was stunned for a moment, then immediately became furious:
"Jun Xiaochen!"
"Ok?"
Jun Xiaochen raised his eyebrows slightly, and a gleam flickered in his amber eyes, which made Xu Junjun's heart jump inexplicably.
Behind the two of them, the little emperor and the steward were staring at them with curiosity.
Xu Junjun suppressed her shame and glared at Jun Xiaochen, deciding to get revenge after returning home.
The doctor had been waiting in the house for a long time. As soon as Xu Junjun was carried into the house by Jun Xiaochen, the doctor came over to take her pulse and check her injuries.
Xu Junjun originally wanted to say that there was no need to go through so much trouble, as she knew exactly where she was feeling unwell and didn't need anyone to check.
But the little emperor was worried and insisted that the doctor check it again. So, half an hour later, Xu Junjun's feet were wrapped like pig's trotters again.
Looking at the doctor's ugly bandaging method, Xu Junjun couldn't bear to watch it. He felt upset for a while and immediately decided to go home!
The little emperor didn't dare to say anything more, for fear that Xu Junjun would pull his ears and scold him again. He took a carriage back to the Regent's Palace. After Xu Junjun changed her clothes and bandaged herself again, the little emperor said goodbye to her pitifully.
After struggling for half a day, I guess the little emperor didn’t have much fun.
Although Xu Junjun's injury was caused by him, she couldn't get angry when she saw the aggrieved child in front of her.
So, when the little emperor apologized again and was about to return to the palace with Jun Xiaochen, Xu Junjun raised his hand to stop the two of them.
"It's so hard to leave the palace, let's have dinner here before leaving.
Whatever you want to eat, let Jun Xiaochen ask the chef to prepare it."
Unexpectedly, he could play for a while longer. The little emperor's eyes lit up, but soon dimmed and he looked hesitantly at Jun Xiaochen beside him.
"Let's see what he does, does he dare to eat people?
Just tell me if there's anything you'd like to eat, and I'll have someone prepare it."
As the saying goes, the guest should follow the host's wishes, but this is completely the case with Xu Junjun. In the palace, as long as she wants to, she will do it regardless of whether Jun Xiaochen is willing or not.
It’s just the difference between doing it secretly and openly.
Seeing Xu Junjun so confident, the little emperor smiled more:
"I want to eat the hot pot we had last time, and I also want to eat candied haws."
After eating so many mild and delicate foods in the palace, the little emperor began to prefer simple and stimulating food.
The last time I tried the hotpot, it seemed weird and scary at first, but after actually eating it, the fresh, spicy and numbing taste stimulation made the little emperor feel a different kind of freshness.
After returning to the palace, he thought about it for a long time.
He also asked the royal chef to make it again according to the method given by Sister Xu, but he didn't know whether it was due to the different environment or the difference in ingredients, but he always felt that it didn't taste half as good as the hot pot at the Regent's Palace.
Xu Junjun was also straightforward and nodded in agreement, then turned around and asked the maid to pass on the message.
Upon hearing Xu Junjun's order, the maid immediately went down to prepare, and soon the same dishes as the New Year's Eve dinner were brought into the courtyard.
The spring weather is beautiful today, and the setting sun is shining gently.
Xu Junjun's courtyard is adjacent to Jun Xiaochen's courtyard, and it is the best location in terms of lighting in the entire Regent's Palace.
In spring, the garden is full of lush flowers and plants, with occasional colorful butterflies hovering in the air.
The three of them were in the pavilion. They removed the screen, prepared a few glasses of Xu Junjun's homemade fruit wine, and paired it with the spicy hot pot carefully improved by the chef of the palace. It was a unique enjoyment.
Today, the kitchen has added many exquisite dishes for hot pot, including cloud fish slices as thin as cicada wings, exquisite balls like crystal, and emerald silk that is so green and juicy. Xu Junjun was dazzled by the variety.
Seeing that all of his favorite dishes were there, Xu Junjun invited the little emperor to pick up his chopsticks and began to eat.
As for Jun Xiaochen, she didn't even bother to look at him.
Accompanied by fruit wine, Xu Junjun ate so much that he didn't even have time to raise his head.
The little emperor was almost done. He took a few bites, looked up at Xu Junjun and Jun Xiaochen, smiled, then lowered his eyes and continued eating.
There was also a spicy hot pot in front of Jun Xiaochen. Compared with the one in front of Xu Junjun, the color of the chili was a little lighter.
The people of Tianqi tend to have a light taste and actually focus more on health in terms of diet. For them, overly stimulating dishes are just for the sake of temporary novelty and occasional curiosity.
Therefore, the pots prepared by the kitchen for Jun Xiaochen and the little emperor are much less spicy than Xu Junjun's.
But even so, it's spicy enough for these two.
Outside the pavilion, bees and butterflies were flying around the flower stamens. Inside the pavilion, three people were drinking and eating in the setting sun.
The occasional conversations and laughter filled the entire yard with vitality.
After having a good meal and a good drink, the little emperor returned to the palace with Jun Xiaochen contentedly. Before leaving, he whispered a few words to Xu Junjun behind Jun Xiaochen's back.
It was already dark when Jun Xiaochen sent the little emperor back home.
Thinking that he would be away from the palace for a long time, Jun Xiaochen went to Xu Junjun's courtyard.
At that time, Xu Junjun was returning to the courtyard from the pharmacy. She had just finished taking a shower and was leaning on the soft couch to wipe her hair.
When Jun Xiaochen knocked on the door, she had just dried her hair halfway.
Hearing the knock on the door, Xu Junjun thought it was the maid, so she said directly:
"The door is not closed, just come in."
After a creaking sound, Xu Junjun rolled her eyes when she saw the man standing at the door, and said unhappily:
"Why, do you regret it?
Do you want to come and take the antidote back in person?"
Jun Xiaochen was used to Xu Junjun's sarcastic remarks, and because of what happened that night, he didn't want to argue with Xu Junjun.
Sitting at the table, Jun Xiaochen said briefly:
"I came tonight to discuss something with you."
"Oh, what could possibly make the dignified Regent of Apocalypse so undecided that he even needs to consult others?
Don't worry, I'm stupid and clueless, not as wise and far-sighted as the Regent. If there's anything, Your Highness can make the decision on his own, without asking me to know."
After hearing the sarcasm, Xu Junjun didn't want to be alone with this person and started to chase him away:
“It’s getting late, I’m going to bed.
Your Majesty, please leave quickly and don't disturb my sleep."
As he spoke, Xu Junjun folded the towel he used to wipe his wet hair and put it aside. He yawned and walked towards the bed, showing no intention of continuing the conversation.
Jun Xiaochen stared at her back and said in a low voice:
"I will be leaving for Jiangcheng tomorrow. I am not in the imperial capital. If anything happens to the emperor, I hope you can come to the palace and help.
For every time you perform a treatment, this king will pay you five thousand taels as a consultation fee."
