Chapter 450 The Storm Begins
That night
In front of the dressing mirror
Lin Junxue was sitting quietly, her slender figure looking particularly tall and graceful in the soft candlelight.
She lowered her head slightly, holding a delicate comb gently in her hand.
She rubbed the wood texture of the comb with her fingertips and gently combed her ink-like long hair, slowly passing it through the teeth of the comb.
Every frown and smile is stunning
Lin Junxue looked at her porcelain-white face in the mirror.
The delicate skin seems as if it can be blown away, with a faint blush looming, as delicate and beautiful as peach blossoms in spring.
Those clear eyes, like bright stars, reveal a hint of deep thought at this moment.
Eyes slightly deepened
As time went by, she seemed to be about to forget what she looked like in modern times.
My thoughts are drifting away
In a blink of an eye, she had been in this ancient time for three years.
In the past three years, she has been planning every step, but she dared not take a wrong step. Playing palace fighting with the ancients requires her to have deeper thoughts and calculations, and it is really tiring.
But this vulnerability can only be revealed in the middle of the night.
Once she leaves this door, she cannot have any weakness.
Sometimes, I really miss the days when I was a parasite in modern times.
Just thinking about it
The temple door was pushed open with a creaking sound, followed by the familiar sound of footsteps and the faint scent of Buddhist incense.
It looks light, but it is extremely aggressive.
Zhuxi approached, Lin Junxue stood up and looked at him.
The two looked at each other, and Zhuxi's eyes were like the clear stream flowing in the mountains.
Her eyebrows are like distant ink, and when they are slightly furrowed, they are as light as the spring breeze blowing through the tips of willow leaves.
His eyes were like stars, sparkling brightly, and there seemed to be a brilliant galaxy hidden deep in his black pupils.
A Gentleman Without a Peer
Zhuxi stepped forward, his eyes fell on Lin Junxue's arms, and frowned.
"Does it hurt? Do we have to use this method?"
For some reason, Lin Junxue actually heard a hint of grievance in Zhuxi's tone.
At this moment, she inexplicably felt that Zhuxi was a bit like a wronged puppy, and she really wanted to go up and touch his head.
Thinking of this, Lin Junxue did it.
Zhuxi's body trembled, and her earlobes turned red again.
Seeing this, Lin Junxue curled her lips
"It's not necessary to use this method, but it's the most effective and painless. I won't be cruel to myself, it just looks more serious."
Zhuxi pulled Lin Junxue to the bed and sat down, then leaned over and took off Lin Junxue's shoes and socks.
This has become a habit. When Zhuxi is around, he even feeds the water to Lin Junxue personally.
"Medicine"
Lin Junxue nodded slightly
"it is good"
Zhuxi carefully removed the cloth wrapped around the wound from the injured area.
It was as if he was afraid that the slightest touch would cause severe pain in the wound that had not yet healed.
His movements were extremely gentle, as if he was holding a fragile treasure in his hands.
Every subtle movement revealed his care and concern for the wound.
The wound, which was originally tightly wrapped with cloth, was exposed to the air.
The dark red bloodstains had dried up a bit, and the edges were slightly red and swollen.
Zhuxi stared at the wound, an indescribable look flashing in his eyes.
Lin Junxue stretched out her hand and lifted Zhuxi's chin, looking at his slightly red eyes.
paused
Feeling sorry for her, so your eyes turned red?
At this moment, Lin Junxue no longer had the mood to make a joke.
Some people say that the highest level of loving someone is heartache.
Lin Junxue leaned forward slightly and raised her onion-like fingers gently.
With his delicate and soft fingertips, he slowly rubbed Zhuxi's chin.
There was a barely perceptible tenderness and doting in Lin Junxue's eyes.
Zhuxi was slightly stunned, and a hint of shyness flashed across her eyes.
Then, he looked at Lin Junxue quietly, feeling the subtle touch from her fingertips.
It seems as if time has frozen at this moment.
Ambiguous circulation room
A hot
Lin Junxue pressed her lips against his, her red lips carrying a sweet taste.
Zhuxi's heart stagnates
This kiss has no lust, only heartbeat
When Lin Junxue wanted to go one step further
Zhuxi leaned back, his throat rolled, and he spoke in a deep voice.
"Tonight, don't, your wound will hurt"
Lin Junxue looked at him trying hard to restrain himself and smiled.
"Okay, I'll listen to you and apply the medicine."
Zhuxi changed the medicine for Lin Junxue. During this process, Lin Junxue did not feel any pain. This shows how careful Zhuxi was.
That night, Shenguang Palace
The imperial physician
Chen Mi had a low fever in the middle of the night and took some medicine, and he got better after daybreak.
After Xie Yu found out, he asked Gao Cheng to bring some gifts to her so that she could recover from her illness.
Chen Mi sent people to Ci'an Palace again, and the empress dowager was so angry that she threw the cup.
She knew clearly that Concubine Mi did not want to speak for Huan'er, otherwise, how could this disease happen at such a coincidence?
Now, the Queen Mother can only think of another way, which is to unite her trusted court officials to put pressure on Xie Yu.
White sun
Li Shiwen took Xie Ziyi to Zhonghe Palace and had lunch together.
Xie Ziyi was taken away for a nap
Li Shiwen took a sip of tea and looked at Lin Junxue
"Your Majesty, I heard that the imperial physician was sent for Concubine Mi at midnight last night. It took until dawn for the fever to subside. I guess Concubine Mi will not come out in the next few days."
Lin Junxue slowly raised one corner of her lips, with a hint of meaning in her eyes.
She said, Mi Fei has always been a smart person, this heat is really the right time and place.
Good timing?
"I found out this morning that Danzhen sent some supplements over and will be back soon."
Li Shiwen nodded
"Your Highness, your injury will take some time to heal. This is an unprovoked disaster. The princess is really crazy. She dares to be so arrogant in Zhonghe Palace. Fortunately, the emperor will make the decision for you, Your Highness."
Lin Junxue said slowly, "The emperor's decision for me is just one aspect, but he is also taking this opportunity to plan for the eldest princess to marry Xuanyuan Jing."
Li Shiwen was stunned and whispered
"You said that the emperor would really marry the eldest princess to the second prince of Xuanyuan Kingdom, Xuanyuan Jing. I'm afraid the queen mother would not agree to it."
Lin Junxue smiled
"If the Queen Mother was unwilling in the past, the Emperor might have let it go, but now, the mother-son relationship between the Queen Mother and the Emperor is not as strong as before. It would be difficult to stop it, unless..."
Li Shiwen thought about it
"Unless the Queen Mother uses the power of the court, this matter may still have a chance to turn around."
Lin Junxue and Li Shiwen looked at each other.
Everyone knows that when the late emperor was alive, he fell in love with the empress dowager at first sight. He tried every means to get her into the palace and gave her all the honors and favors.
For the sake of the Empress Dowager, the late Emperor repeatedly promoted her mother's family out of turn and appointed them to many important positions in the court.
It can be said that thanks to the Queen Mother, her mother's family rose to prominence in the court and had considerable influence.
Until Xie Yu ascended the throne, in the first two years, the empress dowager's mother's family also received many important tasks.
The Empress Dowager's younger brother, Anshan, the Emperor's uncle, is on a diplomatic mission outside the Great Wall for four years and will be back at the end of the year.
Anshan is a civil official whom Xie Yu values very much, and he will definitely be promoted after he returns to the court.
Lin Junxue smiled but said nothing
If the Queen Mother really mobilized the power of the court, then this game would be truly exciting.
