The besties traveled through the book together, and the prince and general became abandoned husbands

The three words "I'll do whatever you say" successfully put an end to Xu Junjun's bad mood when she woke up. She wiped her face, resigned herself to her fate, got out of bed and changed her clothes.

Jun Xiaochen left when she got up, and the maids came in one after another, bringing new clothes for Xu Junjun to change into.

Xu Junjun was yawning as she dressed herself, not paying any attention to what her dress looked like.

Sitting in front of the dressing table and waiting for the maid to tie up her long hair, Xu Junjun chose a green bamboo jade hairpin from a row of long hairpins with a green sheen and inserted it into the top of her head. She stood up and walked towards Jun Xiaochen who had been waiting outside the room for a long time.

Jun Xiaochen stood in the corridor with his hands behind his back. Only after seeing her outfit clearly did he look away with satisfaction.

The hem of her skirt, embroidered with bamboo leaves, rolled up green waves as Xu Junjun walked. The green leaves on her long skirt made her look like a green bamboo after the rain, beautiful and eye-catching.

When Xu Junjun approached, Jun Xiaochen concealed the dark light in his eyes and walked side by side with her.

"How did you talk to those two yesterday?

I came back today and asked them, should everything be alright?"

The cool morning breeze blew across Xu Junjun's face, and he felt a little more refreshed. He rubbed his sore eyes and asked about what happened next last night.

Jun Xiaochen nodded, his expression unchanged:

"certainly.

This king has already instructed these two people, and they will fully cooperate with you."

In Xu Junjun's impression, Jun Xiaochen always kept his word and never did things behind other people's backs. Therefore, Xu Junjun did not doubt the truth of Jun Xiaochen's words at all.

With a heavy burden of relief in her heart, Xu Junjun felt even better. She took brisk steps and gave Jun Xiaochen a faint smile.

When getting on the carriage, he also took Jun Xiaochen's arm and said hello to Wei Dong who had returned to the team:

"Hey, our personal guard boss is back.

Thank you for your hard work these past ten days."

Xu Junjun also had a good attitude towards Wei Dong who helped her bring people back.

Unfortunately, Wei Dong did not appreciate it, and said with a serious face:

"Miss Xu, you are too polite. This is my job. It is not hard at all."

Are you kidding? Didn’t you see that the master’s eyes were almost frozen?

How could he dare to chat and laugh with Miss Xu?

Wei Dong, with a serious face, didn't wait for Xu Junjun to reply. He bowed to Jun Xiaochen behind her and quickly stepped forward to make other arrangements.

Xu Junjun was confused. She stared at Wei Dong's straight back for a few seconds and said to Jun Xiaochen behind him:

"Did he take the wrong medicine?"

Jun Xiaochen also had a plain face, and there was a hint of coldness in his eyes as he looked at Xu Junjun.

"I don't know, you can chase him and ask him."

"..."

Did Jun Xiaochen also take the wrong medicine?

Why are you being so sarcastic?

After glaring at Jun Xiaochen, Xu Junjun bent down and got into the carriage, deciding to ignore this unreasonable man for a day.

Unexpectedly, this state of mind did not last for a quarter of an hour, and Xu Junjun was attracted by the jade box opened in the carriage, and broke the state of mind on the spot.

"Is this the medicine sent by the Shen clan leader?"

Excited by the sight of prey, Xu Junjun pounced on the jade box like a monkey seeing a banana. His itchy fingertips fiddled with the jade bottle, causing it to collide with it. In an instant, he threw the decision he had just made back to Java.

As soon as Jun Xiaochen entered the carriage, he gradually returned to normal in the private space between the two of them.

There was a smile on Xu Junjun's eyebrows and eyes. Jun Xiaochen's unhappiness disappeared, and his chest was filled with her smile little by little.

Glancing at the jade box she was holding tightly, Jun Xiaochen nodded calmly:

"Well, after we enter the palace, I will give you the list of prescriptions given by the clan leader so that you can check with the imperial physician."

Xu Junjun held the jade box, nodded repeatedly, and smiled like a rat stealing some fish.

Great, I can learn from you again.

She wanted to see which one was better, the Tianqi Shen clan's medicinal pill or her family's ancestral medicine.

Xu Junjun held the jade box tightly and seemed to want to open it and smell it in advance. Jun Xiaochen simply reached out and pulled the jade box open, put a few Yikehua pastries in her hands, and motioned her to eat.

“There will be plenty of time to look at these things later.

Have some cakes first. When you enter the palace later, it won’t be that convenient without me by your side.”

Her eyes followed the jade box in Jun Xiaochen's hand. Seeing him throw the jade box aside casually, Xu Junjun reluctantly withdrew her gaze and took the pastry handed to her by Jun Xiaochen.

These are the flavors that Xu Junjun likes to eat on a daily basis.

Jun Xiaochen specifically ordered someone to prepare it in the carriage.

After eating a small plate of pastries and drinking two cups of hot tea, Xu Junjun felt relaxed and decided not to care about the man's sarcasm just now.

As soon as the carriage arrived at the palace gate, Jun Xiaochen ordered someone to take Xu Junjun to see the imperial physician, and he went to the main hall to attend court.

As soon as she arrived at the place and saw the colleagues arranged by Jun Xiaochen for her, Xu Junjun smiled while holding the jade box.

Wow, they are all acquaintances.

Seeing Xu Junjun, the imperial doctors waiting here all stood up, with the same look of surprise on their faces.

"Miss Xu."

"Miss Xu..."

"Miss Xu!"

The three old doctors seemed to be meeting old friends. When they saw Xu Junjun coming with the pills, they immediately stepped forward and said,

"After returning to the Imperial Capital, I haven't seen Miss Xu. I thought she had left, but I didn't expect she was still in the Imperial Capital."

"Yeah, if I had known this, Miss Xu should have gone out for a drink with us old guys."

Xu Junjun bowed and apologized:

"I'm sorry, I'm really sorry.

Originally, after returning to the imperial capital, I planned to visit you all at your homes, but I was busy with mundane affairs all day and didn't have time to look for you.

Please forgive me, my lords. Next time I drink, I will drink three cups as an apology."

In the past, several people in Xinjiang City were worried about the plague. Xu Junjun made a joke and said that they would drink and eat meat together after returning to the imperial capital alive.

Facts have proved that you can eat whatever you want, but you can’t say whatever you want.

As a result, when they met face to face, someone caught him and asked him about his shortcomings.

The three imperial doctors were just teasing Xu Junjun. Seeing how capable she was, they didn't really want to argue with her. After some pleasantries, the four of them got down to business.

Before coming, several imperial doctors already knew what they needed to do today.

At the moment, Xu Junjun only roughly said that the four of them would check whether there were any problems with the pills, and the three imperial doctors then divided the work among themselves.

Since Jun Xiaochen had called these three imperial doctors, he must have trusted them very much. Xu Junjun did not hide anything and directly took out the prescription given by Jun Xiaochen and asked the three imperial doctors to check it one by one.

The four of them each took out a pill from the jade bottle and took turns identifying the right prescription. Before they knew it, it was noon.

The Imperial Palace, the Queen Mother's Palace.

Four palace maids knelt on the ground, gritting their teeth and trembling all over, with whip marks all over their thin backs.

The perpetrator sat at the head, holding a long black whip in his hand. The long and sharp armor scraped against the sharp barbs on the whip, making a harsh sound that made people feel cold all over.

"A bunch of rubbish, how dare you break the Empress Dowager's favorite vase.

It is your blessing that the Queen Mother personally punishes you."

A man with a sharp and unpleasant duck voice stood beside the empress dowager, pretending to be powerful. He had a pair of slanted eyes and looked snobbish and cunning.

After angrily cursing, he turned around with a hoarse voice and faced the empress dowager. His face was wrinkled with smile, like a blooming chrysanthemum.

“Your Majesty, these disobedient little bitches must be punished.

Does your hand hurt?

If it hurts, I am willing to serve you."

The word "lackey" is fully reflected in Gong Yasheng's voice.

The honorable Queen Mother glanced at him, seeming to be very satisfied with him.

She nodded to the jeweled head, threw the black whip at the eunuch's feet, and opened her red lips slightly:

"Beat me hard.

If you fail to skin them, I will peel off your skin."

The eunuch shuddered, quickly picked up the black whip, and bowed:

"Don't worry, Queen Mother. I will definitely use all my strength to beat these little bitches."

With a crack of the whip, the black whip tore the dress of a palace maid and whipped her to the ground, causing her to scream in pain.

Pleasing herself painfully with the palace maid, the Queen Mother slowly leaned back, a smile as red as blood on the corners of her lips.

"Good, continue."

After being praised by the Queen Mother, the eunuch became excited as if he had taken an aphrodisiac, and waved the black whip in his hand faster and faster.

The palace maid's screams became weaker and weaker.

Until the blood on his back flowed all over the ground, and there was no sound anymore.

The four palace maids lay in a pool of blood without a breath. The Queen Mother's smile grew wider and wider, and she pointed at the eunuch who was holding a black whip and breathing heavily:

"Well done, I'm very happy.

Now, I will reward you..."

"The punishment of breaking the waist."

Hearing the last four words, the eunuch's smug smile froze on his face. Like a frightened dying wild dog, he fell to his knees with a thud, kowtowing and begging for mercy:

"Her Majesty the Queen Mother, please spare my life, Her Majesty the Queen Mother, please spare my life.

I will never do anything for you again.

Queen Mother, please spare my life..."

The Queen Mother paid no attention to the noisy pleas for mercy. She waved her hand and two tall and thin eunuchs with cold eyes walked out of the shadows and dragged the yelling eunuch out of the palace like a dead dog.

During the struggle, the black whip that had just claimed four lives rolled to the ground, leaving a winding trail of blood. The tail of the whip pointed directly at the bodies of four palace maids nearby. The scene was horrifying.
