The bodyguard wants to get on my dragon bed
Chapter 53
When Zhao Chen woke up again, it was the early morning of the second day, and he was already on the soft couch in the sleeping hall, wrapped in a thick velvet quilt.He stood up, and the smell of alcohol made him frowned, "Come here." Zhao Chen's voice was also hoarse, and his throat hurt like a needle.He rubbed his Adam's apple, but touched the bandage wrapped around his neck.
Zhao Chen's memory came back instantly, and his head seemed to be splitting.The feeling of hangover was really bad, Zhao Chen couldn't care less about other things, a person came in from outside the hall and handed him hangover soup, he raised his hand to take it, and drank it all in one gulp.Moisturized the throat, and suppressed the nausea churning in the stomach.
He waited for a few seconds before raising his eyes to look at the person coming, and then froze for a moment, "You...you're awake."
"En." Xiao Qi said lightly.
"Is your body okay?" Zhao Chen was a little embarrassed. He said he wanted to rest first, but he got drunk outside the palace and lost consciousness. He firmly believed that Xiao Qi must have seen this scene.
"Yes, I promised His Majesty that I will definitely do it." Xiao Qi said, "How did Your Majesty drink so much last night?"
"Uh..." Zhao Chen scratched his face, "You've seen it all..."
Unexpectedly, Xiao Qi shook his head, "I fainted a long time ago. I saw that His Majesty was late for the morning court this morning. When I opened the palace door, there was the smell of alcohol. It's just a guess."
Zhao Chen relaxed his expression and breathed a sigh of relief, "It's been a long time since I drank cold spring wine, but once I drink it, I can't finish it."
"Drinking alcohol can hurt your health, Your Majesty should restrain yourself." Xiao Qi said.He saw the ribbon on Zhao Chen's neck, and lowered his eyes again, "Yesterday...it was my humble minister who broke the rules."
"..." Zhao Chen followed his gaze and knew what he was looking at, raised his hand and touched his neck, "It's nothing, don't bring it up again."
"Your Majesty's wound... the medicine should be changed." Xiao Qi said.
Zhao Chen felt a little funny, "Why, it wasn't bitten by a vicious dog, which also needs medicine?"
"Your Majesty..." Xiao Qi showed embarrassment, "After all, it was because of a humble minister that your majesty's dragon body was damaged..."
"Now I'm willing to remember again." Zhao Chen raised his hand and untied the beautiful knot on the back of his neck. After turning it around a few times, the snow-white bandage landed on Zhao Chen's feet, and he tilted his head, "Look at it." .”
Xiao Qi's eyes fell on the black and blue tooth marks on the side of his neck, and he touched it gently with his fingertips, "It hurts, Your Majesty." Zhao Chen looked at his wet eyes, which were obviously the same as when he was poisoned. Tough and seductive, but now she is acting so innocent.
Zhao Chen frowned and said aggrievedly, "It hurts, how do you pay for it?" This appearance really seemed to have been bullied by Xiao Qi, Xiao Qi panicked, pulled the neckline, revealing the graceful curve of the neck, He knelt in front of Zhao Chen, his sexy Adam's apple moved up and down, "Then His Majesty bites back, Xiao Qi is not afraid of pain."
"?" Zhao Chen didn't know what to say. Is it because you give me one and I return you for this kind of thing.He pulled up the bandage on the bed, and walked around Xiao Qi, "People who are poisoned are much bolder."
"Where is your Majesty going?" Xiao Qi asked, looking at Zhao Chen who jumped off the bed barefoot.Zhao Chen waved his hand, "I'm going to take a bath."
Zhao Chen was in the soup pool. He never liked to leave people to help him bathe, which also gave Zhao Chen more time to think alone.He raised his hand to touch the wound, it was still itchy after soaking in water.The relationship with Xiao Qi today did not seem to be what he imagined yesterday, and that incident did not seem to have any impact on them.
This made Zhao Chen feel that yesterday was just a dream he had, and today he woke up from the dream.Apart from the fact that the wound was clamoring for what happened yesterday, Zhao Chen almost forgot about that reality.
He wiped his wet hair and left the soup pool in clean pajamas.Xiao Qi stood guard outside the door, and when he saw Zhao Chen coming out, he followed him to the Nuan Pavilion outside.Zhao Chen lay lazily on the small slum in the warm pavilion, with his hair untied, and the wet hair was hanging out of the slum.
Xiao Qi presented Zhao Chen with his favorite ancient book, and Zhao Chen read it interestingly.He took a clean handkerchief again, knelt behind Zhao Chen, gently brushed Zhao Chen's hair, and smoothed his hair with a comb.
They are like a pair of ordinary lovers, enjoying the warmth in the late autumn pavilion.
After a long time, Zhao Chen got tired of reading, so he folded the book on his chest, raised his head and rubbed his eyes, "I haven't asked you how you got poisoned." Xiao Qi paused, " The humble minister... drank the sweet soup from the imperial concubine and empress."
Zhao Chen was taken aback, put the book by his side, sat up, and asked, "Why don't I know when you will meet her?"
"Your Majesty wanted to eat sweets that day, and I met Miss Chunqiao on the way to the imperial dining room." Xiao Qi said.
"Chunqiao." Zhao Chen frowned, "Since that's the case, the Lily and Osmanthus Soup that day was also...?"
"No, there should be none that day." Xiao Qi said, "The target of that person is a minister, not His Majesty. The imperial concubine must also not want to harm His Majesty."
Zhao Chen's face was cold, "Zheng Quan, go and invite the imperial concubine to Cangwu Pavilion."
Zheng Quan was the little eunuch who stopped the imperial concubine outside the palace that day, he hurried to Muyun Palace after receiving his orders.
When Concubine Chao heard that His Majesty wanted to find her there, she didn't bother to change into fresh clothes, but hurriedly asked Chunqiao, "Is this palace still beautiful today?"
"Even if your empress doesn't wear makeup, she must be the most beautiful in this palace." Chunqiao said.
Concubine Chao was both nervous and excited in her heart, she just thought that this matter had come to an end and Xiao Qi would not be around His Majesty, so she was the first thing she thought of.She followed Zheng Quan to the Cangwu Pavilion, and stepped into the hall with feigned calm steps. Seeing the joy that Zhao Chen hadn't arrived, she saw Xiao Qi behind Zhao Chen, and her footsteps flashed immediately.
"Your Majesty, be careful." Chunqiao had sharp eyesight and quick hands, and grabbed Chaofei's forearm to avoid wrestling in front of Zhao Chen.
"Why is Chaofei so nervous?" Zhao Chen narrowed his eyes and asked coldly.
"Concubine..." Concubine Chao glanced at Xiao Qi guilty, then quickly lowered her head, "Concubine has not seen His Majesty for a long time, so she is naturally timid. Your Majesty will not blame Concubine, will you?"
"If it's just that, I won't blame it." Zhao Chen said, "I'm afraid that the imperial concubine has other thoughts."
"Your Majesty, what are you talking about? What are the concubine's thoughts?" The imperial concubine said with a smile, "If you want to talk about other thoughts, naturally I hope that your majesty will pay more attention to the concubine."
"Yesterday, I didn't drink the bowl of red rose rice wine stewed by the imperial concubine, but I asked Xiao Qi to taste it first. I am really moved by the concubine's kindness to my guards."
"Lord Xiao has been with His Majesty for so many years, and the concubine just wanted to ask him to taste it first, so as to avoid the situation of the day before yesterday." She wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, "The concubine really blamed herself the day before yesterday. Your Majesty has been married for three years, yet he can't even remember these little things."
"The imperial concubine doesn't have to be like this, I also saw the great gift you gave Xiao Qi."
Concubine Chao was taken aback for a moment, she thought that Xiao Qi was still there because the medicine had no effect at all, but she didn't think about it, this...how is this possible? !Unless... She raised her eyes, and the bandage wrapped around Zhao Chen's neck fell into the eyes of Concubine Chao. She was startled, as if her guess had been verified.
"You...you! How dare you...!" Concubine Chao pointed at Xiao Qi with trembling fingers, and took two steps back.Chunqiao hurriedly embraced the concubine Chao's shoulders, and said in a low voice, "Your Majesty...you can't..."
Only then did Concubine Chao come back to her senses, "You dare to tell His Majesty all about this, and all the surprises I prepared for His Majesty were ruined by you."
Zhao Chen raised his eyebrows, it's really not bad to change the subject. "It's okay, you should deny it now." Zhao Chen raised his head and said, "Zheng Quan, where are the things?"
"Your Majesty." Zheng Quan handed a box to Zhao Chen, and he squeezed it to look at it, "Go and find Lang Kai."
"Yes."
Concubine Chao looked at the box in Zhao Chen's hand, it was very strange, she didn't know what it was at all.Turning her head to look at Chunqiao, Chunqiao also had a dazed expression on her face, and she had definitely cleaned up that thing, and it was absolutely impossible to find any leftovers.
The silence in the hall was maintained until Lang Kai entered the door, "Veteran attends Your Majesty." Zhao Chen handed the box in his hand to Zheng Quan, and Zheng Quan handed it to Lang Kai.As soon as Lang Kai opened it, a strange fragrance came out. He carefully picked some with a silver needle and placed it on the tip of his nose, which made his head dizzy for a while.
Lang Kai hurriedly covered the thing, "Your Majesty, this is a dirty thing that makes people emotional."
"Concubine Chao, the matter has come to this, and you still haven't pleaded guilty?" Zhao Chen said angrily, "Do you know that this is the most taboo in the palace to harm others with something?"
"Your Majesty's words are ridiculous, what crime does the concubine plead guilty to?" The imperial concubine stabilized her body stubbornly, "How can this kind of thing be said to be made by the concubine?"
"This is what was found in your palace." Zhao Chen said, "This is not made by you, I know, you are not that capable."
"Your Majesty summoned his concubines here just to send people to search their palaces?!" Concubine Chao trembled angrily, "Your Majesty actually went to search their palaces for him?!"
Zhao Chen frowned and said, "Concubine Chao, be careful with your words!"
"Careful?" Concubine Chao sneered twice, "Did Your Majesty pull out your concubine to let him vent his anger because he was afraid of Lord Xiao being wronged? It's really touching! Your Majesty, have you forgotten who is your wife and concubine? !"
"Do you know what you're talking about?"
"Chen Qie is very clear, this thing, if it is not Chen Qie's, it is definitely not, Chen Qie disdains to lie."
"You don't have to rush to deny that the medicine was found in yesterday's rice brew in your palace. Concubine Chao, I really want to hear it. What else can you say?"
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!" Concubine Chao shook her head violently, and glanced sharply at Chunqiao, who also had an expression of disbelief. "Your Majesty, this is slander!" Concubine Chao knelt on the ground and climbed a few steps forward, the happy face when she came in was no longer there.
"Whether it's slandering you or me is clear."
"It's him!" Concubine Chao changed the subject and pointed at Xiao Qi angrily, "He designed all this to take away His Majesty's favor, Your Majesty, don't be fooled by him! Xiao Qi is a man, Your Majesty How can-"
"Chaofei!" Zhao Chen said angrily, "I said so, be careful!"
She was dazed by Zhao Chen's anger and fell to the ground.Zhao Chen was furious, and Xiao Qi patted him on the back quietly, "Ms. Chao Concubine, I won't use these methods."
"Concubine Chao, I didn't want to go this far with you. You could have enjoyed all the splendor in this palace, but you did."
"Ronghua? Heh. Hahaha." Concubine Chao laughed like crazy, "Since we got married, has my husband visited me a few times? It's hard to stay alone in an empty room. Your Majesty is accompanied by others every day. Where are the concubines? Are you accompanied by this prosperous palace full of golden hairpins and silver ornaments?!"
"This is because I have treated you badly, so why do you want to harm Xiao Qi?"
"Your Majesty, forgive me! Everything is done by your servants! Please don't blame your majesty anymore!!" Chunqiao knelt on the ground and moved forward, standing in front of the imperial concubine, weeping.Concubine Chao paused, staring blankly at Chunqiao's back.
"You?" Zhao Chen said.
"Yes..." Chunqiao gritted his teeth, "I can't see your majesty grieving for His Majesty. Your Majesty's feelings for His Majesty are a lesson to be learned! What she expects day and night is that His Majesty can visit Muyun Palace, but His Majesty never came. Yes! It is rumored among the people that His Majesty does not like women, but His Majesty still does not want to transfer Master Xiao away, let alone come to see His Majesty.
"Why! Your Majesty is so good! Before leaving the court, your Majesty was so free, so many men came to Zhang's mansion to ask for marriage, but our Majesty resolutely married His Majesty, what about Your Majesty?! Was there ever such a slight—"
"Chunqiao! Stop talking!" Concubine Chao shouted angrily, breaking down in tears.
"Your Majesty, let Chunqiao fight for you again..." Chunqiao turned his head and smiled at Concubine Chao.He said again, "As long as Xiao Qi betrays His Majesty, His Majesty will definitely drive him away. This servant just wants His Majesty to return everything to the way it should be, nothing else." She kowtowed heavily, "Please His Majesty bestows the punishment."
"You are really a good servant from the bottom of my heart." Zhao Chen said, "You are right, I admire your courage." He knocked on the small table, "I will not torture you. Zheng Quan, give me poisoned wine."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Chunqiao said coldly.She stood up and bowed to Zhao Chen again, "Your majesty's love is true, please don't treat your majesty badly." After finishing speaking, she turned to look at the imperial concubine, "Your maidservant is gone, your majesty take care."
"No, no! Chunqiao!" No matter how the imperial concubine shouted, she didn't see Chunqiao and turned her head again.She understands that Chunqiao is defending her from the crime, and is also helping her to tell the love she couldn't say, fighting for her one last time.But obviously, Zhao Chen didn't care about her at all.
With tears all over her face, her makeup was completely worn out by crying, and she looked a little scary. "Your Majesty, you are really ruthless! You are crazy for him! The person I like is not you...he is not you!!"
"I'm not crazy. You know, Xiao Qi has a chance to stand here again because of his fate. If she has the guts to take someone's life, she should accept her own life."
"Which emperor would abandon his concubine for a bodyguard?" Concubine Chao smiled ferociously, "Only you, only you! Xiao Qi, you can't get what you want! If I can't get it, you can definitely get it!" not!"
Zhao Chen frowned and raised his hand, and Zheng Quan took the concubine Chao down with someone, "Confine the concubine Chao to Muyun Palace."
After the imperial concubine left, the hall became much cleaner. Zhao Chen rubbed his brows, looked at Lang Kai, "Is this the medicine?"
"No, Your Majesty, this is not the poison that Mr. Xiao suffered from." Lang Kai said.
"I guessed it." Zhao Chen said, "Concubine Chao did not lie, this thing is indeed not hers." He snorted coldly, "Panruo, it is really a good trick."
"Since your Majesty knows, why did you punish Chunqiao?" Lang Kai asked.
"It's true that it's not from Muyun Palace, but they have other dirty things to harm people. I can't see it." Zhao Chen said.He turned to look at Xiao Qi, "I know that Chunqiao is the one who wards off the crime. Don't blame me if I haven't dealt with the imperial concubine."
"I don't dare, His Majesty already has a lot of preference for me." Xiao Qi said.
"I'm just discussing the matter." Zhao Chen said, "Xiao Qi, you and Lang Kai will clean up these things together."
"Yes."
Xiao Qi and Lang Kai left the palace gate, and Lang Kai said, "Master Xiao is in good health?"
"Yes, thanks to Doctor Lang."
"Last night, you almost scared the old man out of his soul." Lang Kai said, "After three o'clock, you rushed out the door. Your Majesty was drunk outside, and the old man advised you for a long time, but you didn't listen. People sent him back. As soon as His Majesty was put down, he passed out again. You rough people, really..."
Xiao Qi smiled, as if thinking of Zhao Chen sleeping soundly on his back last night, belching and calling his name while belching.He said softly, "Thank you, sir."
Zhao Chen's memory came back instantly, and his head seemed to be splitting.The feeling of hangover was really bad, Zhao Chen couldn't care less about other things, a person came in from outside the hall and handed him hangover soup, he raised his hand to take it, and drank it all in one gulp.Moisturized the throat, and suppressed the nausea churning in the stomach.

"I'm just discussing the matter." Zhao Chen said, "Xiao Qi, you and Lang Kai will clean up these things together."
"Yes."
Xiao Qi and Lang Kai left the palace gate, and Lang Kai said, "Master Xiao is in good health?"
"Yes, thanks to Doctor Lang."
"Last night, you almost scared the old man out of his soul." Lang Kai said, "After three o'clock, you rushed out the door. Your Majesty was drunk outside, and the old man advised you for a long time, but you didn't listen. People sent him back. As soon as His Majesty was put down, he passed out again. You rough people, really..."
Xiao Qi smiled, as if thinking of Zhao Chen sleeping soundly on his back last night, belching and calling his name while belching.He said softly, "Thank you, sir."
