Accountant

Shen Xiu woke up from a coma, but she couldn't keep her eyes open because of the swollen head.

He groaned softly, raised his hand to cover his eyes with the back of his hand, and did not open them in a hurry.

I wanted to slowly open my eyes again, but in the next moment I heard a voice: "Are you awake?"

It was Yan Sui's voice.

Shen Xiu was startled, and quickly put down his hands and opened his eyes, he didn't even care about the headache, he just wanted to kneel down and salute.

He forced himself to get out of bed, bent his knees and knelt on the ground, and kowtowed heavily to Yan Sui, "Your Majesty."

His voice was hoarse, and his voice seemed a bit harsh.

Yan Sui accepted his worship with mixed emotions, and did not respond for a long time.

It wasn't until Qianyue came in with the soup and was disturbed by the sound of the door opening that he came back to his senses.

She leaned over and wanted to help Shen Xiu, but Shen Xiu cleverly avoided it.Yan Sui frowned, withdrew his hand and said, "Get up, you are not in good health, you don't need to salute in the future."

"Thank you for your grace."

Shen Xiu got up from the ground in a daze, but just stood there, not daring to lie down on the bed.

Yan Sui saw that he was not pleasing to the eye, so he had to be extremely cautious and never do anything out of line in front of this person.

Otherwise, another humiliation would be unavoidable.

His body and heart are already rotten, but he dare not die, and he can't escape, so he can only follow his wishes and behave cautiously as a human... no, as a dog, or as a plaything.

If you want to feel better, you must be obedient and don't make your master angry.

He has already recognized who Yan Sui's heart is for, and he will no longer have that unrealistic delusion.

Yan Sui saw that he was standing still, like a haggard wooden stake, and couldn't help asking: "Are you losing your temper?"

As soon as he said this, Shen Xiu immediately knelt down again, and hit his forehead heavily on the carpet at his feet, even though the carpet was already very soft, he still heard a muffled "dong".

"The guilty minister dare not."

"You..." Yan Sui wanted to say something, but he didn't know what to say.He doesn't like Shen Xiu's current posture.

After a moment of silence, he said, "Get up."

Shen Xiu got up without saying a word, and just got up.

Seeing him like this, Yan Sui felt really complicated and didn't know what expression to put on.

He was so depressed that he felt that he had punched the cotton with his fist, and he was so powerless that he had to hold back his breath and press Shen Xiu on the bed in silence.

"Qianyue, here comes the medicine."

Qian Yue was really surprised by Yan Sui's action.

She could see that the emperor was a little impatient, but she didn't know why today, when her conscience found out that she didn't lose her temper with Young Master Shen, she still held back and pinned him on the bed, which clearly meant to tell Young Master Shen to rest.

Presumably, Jun Shang still misses the old love in his heart, and he still feels a little bit sorry for Mr. Shen, right?

Qianyue adjusted her mood secretly, then walked to the bed with the medicine in her hand, "Your Majesty."

Yan Sui reached out to take the bowl of medicine, then sat down on the edge of the bed.With a spoon, he stirred the concoction in the bowl, and brought a spoonful to Shen Xiu's lips.

Shen Xiu shrank back, looked at him blankly, then quickly lowered his eyelashes, and said in a low voice: "The sinner's hands are not injured, and he can move. Don't dare to bother the king to feed the medicine. The king will give the medicine to the sinner." That's fine."

While speaking, he slowly raised his hands to take the bowl.

Yan Sui didn't give it to him, but gently pressed his hands down.

Yan Sui took another spoonful of concoction to feed him, but Shen Xiu couldn't resist, and didn't dare to refute his kindness, so he had to bite the bullet and drink this spoonful of concoction.

Medicine is bitter.

For the first time, he discovered that this thick concoction could be so bitter.

It was so bitter that he couldn't hold back his tears.

This is the first time he has taken medicine like this.Someone held a spoon and fed him slowly one spoon at a time. It felt very fresh, but he didn't like this feeling.

This made him feel terrified, and made him feel that the bitterness of the medicine was magnified countless times.

He still thinks it's better to drink the medicine in one gulp, and slide down the stomach before he tastes the taste. After drinking it, he can eat sweet winter melon candy, and his mouth will not be bitter. However, recently he takes the medicine in one gulp , but no one gave him winter melon candy to suppress the taste.

He remembered that a long time ago, when he was still in the general's mansion, his mother coaxed him to take medicine like this.

He still vaguely remembers his mother's gentle voice and words. Mother touched his head and said: "Xiaoxiu, this medicine is not bitter. Mother has tasted it. You drink it in one gulp and mother will give you a wax gourd." sugar."

At the end, she would add, "Winter melon candy is so sweet, don't you want to eat it?"

He... he wants to eat.

He wanted to eat winter melon candy, and he missed his mother even more.

However, when he was ten years old, his mother was plagued by a serious illness and passed away.Since then, no one has given him winter melon candy.

Without the sweet winter melon candy, what he faced was even more bitter.Practicing martial arts hard every day, marching and fighting with his father, growing up in the smoke of gunpowder.

Loyalty, filial piety and etiquette, he keeps in mind, and he goes all out for the stability of his family and country.

But after achieving both loyalty and filial piety, he fell into such a situation.

If he could choose again, he would never have any lofty ambitions. He just wanted to cry and make noise in his mother's tender embrace, and be a willful playboy.

Shen Xiu thought of his mother in his heart, and thought of those hard tormented times in these years, and his heart became even more sad.

After forcing himself to take a few sips of the medicine, he pushed away the bowl in front of him, "Your Majesty, I'm sorry for your trouble, please put down the medicine first, the criminal will drink it by himself later."

After a pause, he said again: "The body you love will never collapse, please rest assured."

Shen Xiu felt that he had touched Yan Sui's Ni Lin, but he kept himself there for so long, maybe he really fell in love with this body.He said so, there should be no problem.

What's more, Yan Sui just wanted to get rid of all his pride, he said some self-deprecating words, maybe he could make Yan Sui happy, and one day he would be able to let himself go when he was in a better mood.

He originally wanted to stay by Yan Sui's side, and he even thought that as long as Yan Sui was happy, he would be a bird in a cage for the rest of his life, and he would be willing to be locked in this Feiluan Palace for the rest of his life.

But now, he doesn't want to.

He is a character who would rather bend than bend, and he is not a very resilient person.

If it wasn't for having expectations for Yan Sui, if it wasn't...he liked Yan Sui, how could he allow him to be humiliated and imprisoned.

And Yan Sui's slap broke all his expectations.

He couldn't dislike it, but he no longer expected it.

Yan Sui heard that he said such self-deprecating words, and called himself "criminal minister" one by one, the anger in his heart could not be held anymore, he handed the medicine bowl in his hand to Qianyue and left angrily.

Qianyue held the medicine bowl to Shen Xiu, and sighed helplessly: "Young Master Shen, Your Majesty has finally softened your attitude towards you. You should not make him angry, otherwise you will suffer again."

Shen Xiu drank the medicine and shook his head, "I'm a guilty minister, I'm already grateful for your majesty's saving my life, how dare you offend him."

He gave the medicine bowl to Qianyue, and said, "Aunt Qianyue, I..."

Having said that, he paused.

Qianyue didn't wait for the next words, she looked at him puzzled, "Mr. Shen, what do you want to say?"

Shen Xiu shook his head, "It's nothing, I want to rest, can you call me later in the afternoon?"

"Okay, Mr. Shen, you have to rest, the servants will come later." After Qianyue said, she went out with an empty medicine bowl, and then ordered two maidservants to stand guard in front of the door for him to call when he had something to do.

After Qianyue went out, Shen Xiu lay back and hugged the quilt silently.

He originally wanted a winter melon candy, but he didn't think it was necessary.This medicine is bitter, but after the bitterness is over, there is nothing left.

When you are under the fence, don't make too many demands.

Yan Suixing may really be thinking about old love, after the imperial doctor said that Shen Xiu's body is not suitable for intercourse, he has not been to Feiluan Palace again, and it has been more than a month.

Yan Sui didn't come, but Shen Xiu was accompanied by Qian Yue every day, saying a few words from time to time, which made her feel a little more relaxed.Although he still hides in the house all day and doesn't like to see the light, there is a smile on his face anyway.

However, there is only this period of such leisurely days.

In the height of spring in March, all the flowers in the garden are blooming and blooming more and more beautifully.

Every year at this time, the palace will take advantage of the timing of the flowers, and choose an auspicious day with fine weather to hold a Spring Festival banquet. In the morning, make wine with the nectar of the flowers and go to the altar to worship the heavens to pray for good weather for the country. Dinner at night, and after the meal, there will be beauties presenting their arts and heart for you.

On this day, the monarchs of the previous dynasties would usually choose a few beauties to stay in the harem. Therefore, this Spring Festival banquet has almost become a ladder for many women to reach the sky in one step.

However, since Yan Sui succeeded to the throne, no woman can stay in the harem on the day of the Spring Festival Banquet.

Of the seven concubines in his current harem, six of them have come step by step from the show girl, and the only one who came in through the non-show girl path is Shen Duan'er, the fourth sister of Zhen Guo General Shen Xiu.

The reason why she entered the palace was not due to Shen Xiu's handwriting, but her mother's fighting spirit, she gave birth to a dragon and a phoenix son, and her elder brother Shen Jingshu died, so the emperor brought Shen Duaner, who was born seven points similar to Shen Jingshu, into the palace. Went to the palace to relieve lovesickness.

In fact, everyone is well aware of this matter, and Shen Duan'er herself is also very self-aware, knowing why she entered the palace, so she has been keeping a low profile since entering the palace, living in seclusion.

Today is the once-a-year Spring Festival banquet, and the outside world started to make noise before dawn.

When Qian Yue came back from outside, she happily asked the maid behind her to change Shen Xiu's clothes.

Shen Xiu looked at the maids with their clothes, hair crowns and shoes, and was a little puzzled, "Aunt Qianyue, what are you doing?"

Qian Yue said with a smile: "Young Master Shen, today is the Spring Festival banquet. You are the general of Zhen Guo, and you are going to go up to the altar with you to salute."

"Should I go too?"

"Of course!" Qian Yue said to the maidservant behind her: "What are you still doing in a daze, hurry up and change Mrs. Shen's clothes, if the time is delayed, everyone in Feiluan Palace will have to move their heads!"

After hearing her words, the maidservants didn't dare to dawdle at all, they quickly changed Shen Xiu's clothes and shoes, and then pulled him to the dressing table to tie his hair and put on a crown.

After carefully tinkering for half an hour, he was finally cleaned up.
