Mrs. Rong, who had always been dignified, became angry, raised her voice, and frowned, asking her son to apologize.

Xu Zhi looked at Mi Xin and then lowered her head obediently.

Xiang Liang, who is still a young man, is much more sensible and calm, "I hope your highness the princess will forgive me."

While they were talking, Li Xian quietly left behind the palace people.

Mrs. Rong bowed again, and Xu Zhi slowly replied, "It's okay."

She was wearing an aqua skirt and a grass-dark color scheme that reminded Xu Zhi of Zheng Li. Xu Zhi didn't want to have any more entanglements with him, so finding Zhang Yuan was the most important thing.

Zhaorong nodded apologetically. When she saw the curled lotus leaves, she thought of something again. She smiled slightly and said, "Summer is coming to an end, but lotus flowers are still blooming everywhere. Princess, do you know why?"

"I heard that King Chu You once ordered a palace to be built in Chen Yingchu as a living water hot spring."

"Yes." Zhaorong continued, "The water from this spring comes from the ground. It is hot in winter and cool in summer, and there is an endless supply."

"Her Highness the Princess must be tired after all this going on. Have you ever been to Liquan Palace in the past few days?"

During these days when she was in the palace, she often went out to the forest garden with Fu Chu. Because her shooting accuracy was quite high, she often talked to him about important things and never stayed in the palace for a long time.

With her performance, how could she leave such a good place alone?

"I asked Chu Nu and learned that it is dry this year and the hot spring water is scarce. It is not comfortable to come here."

Zhaorong shook her head, "Princess has never been there, so you will know how good Liquan Palace is if you do."

Zhao Rong leaned over and spoke softly.

Xu Zhi suddenly froze on the spot, burning with shame from head to toe.

Zhaorong said that she begged Mi You to vacate Liquan Palace, and now she was willing to give her the right to use the palace.

"Princess, don't worry. If your safety is compromised, both the king and I will be blamed."

Zhaorong hopes that by being accommodating to him, he can tilt the balance of Ying Hehua's favor towards Mi You.

She doesn't care whether Ying Hehua wants to become the queen. Anyway, Mi You doesn't love her, and she doesn't love Mi You either.

For Zhaorong, as long as this point is not established, then she can give in and disobey her father's orders.

Xianyang Palace

"Your Majesty, the city father has received news again. The eldest son is in the mansion. Do you need me to send someone from him?"

Ying Zheng waved his hand and muttered: "Fu Su should be responsible for his own duties." He stared at the reply on the case, and the clear and round handwriting detailed the recent events of Ning Chu and Mi You.

He told Zong Zhengguan, "He Hua will return to Qin soon, so he must be well prepared."

"promise."

"Your Majesty, I have one more thing to do."

Yao Jia subconsciously wanted to keep silent, but what he wanted to report came from Yingchuan County, and Li Si had met him beforehand.

The candlelight on the case illuminated the Qin bird pattern.

Ying Zheng never cared about how his ministers fought for power. Within the scope of his tolerance, he could turn a blind eye.

If it violates the principle, then Ying Zheng will not show mercy.

Palace·Liquan Palace

Why does she have to create a persona similar to that of a 'Faint King'? !

All Xu Zhi can feel now is regret.

Zhaorong smiled slightly and said that the person she wanted had been "considerately" prepared for her.

……

Liquan Palace is backed by Linshan, with pavilions and pavilions surrounding the mountain, lush green bamboo forests, and the rustling ground rustling in the wind.

The sun hangs high in the sky, and a star carries the moon, like water in the sky.

Because there is water all year round, the path paved with bluestones is a bit slippery. She could only step very carefully.

Xu Zhi felt white mist rushing upwards, and her eyelashes seemed to be in contact with the wet water droplets.

The clouds and mist in front of you, the white jade sculptures, and the fragrance of flowers overflow, just like a fairyland.

But after seeing this and reaching this point, she really couldn't go on any further.

The early psychological construction was that no matter what, it was enough to see Zhang Yuan. Using this reason to see him was the best way to hide the secret.

And now, who knew that Chu people were so good at creating an atmosphere.

The more she thought about it, the more awkward she became.

She doesn't look like a pervert, she is a pervert! What a pervert!

Zhang Liangren is still in Daliang. But she asked someone to throw her brother into the hot spring.

She couldn't keep her normal thinking.

When the palace maid saw that she didn't go any further, she thought she didn't want to be disturbed, so she quickly stopped.

"My maid is waiting for you right here." Chu Nu even handed her the sandalwood box in her hand clearly, "This is what Princess Yong'an needs."

There was no sound in the palace maid's voice, so Xu Zhi thought it was food, or wine at most.

The moment she opened it, Xu Zhi had unearthed similar cultural relics before, but this was the first time she had touched them. She suddenly lost her composure and subconsciously wanted to throw away all the things in the box.

Fortunately, the palace maid was so low that her gaffe could not be seen.

The palace maid thought that she had never used these before. The leading palace maid raised her head and wanted to explain to her how to use them. Now, Xu Zhi was even more incoherent.

"No, no need to explain."

"Did the princess use it?"

"...No, I don't need these."

Xu Zhi never knew what the palace maid told Zhao Rong after she returned. Zhaorong laughed softly and said, "Qin people have always been direct."

The suffocating conversation was finally over.

Xu Zhi refused to take another step inside.

In the distance, there are waterside pavilions with carved beams and painted buildings, and the swirling water.

In the surrounding streams, the splashing water dances like elves, seeming to offer its own dance to the gurgling clear spring.

She held the box in her arms, wanting to take it out and destroy all traces of it so that no one would see it in this life.

In fact, if you can calm down and appreciate it, this palace is absolutely wonderful. Looking around, there is only the beautiful symphony of water and birdsong, everything is the most perfect melody.

In such a comfortable environment, if you can relax and enjoy the hot springs and feel the subtle heat, it will be intoxicating.

Xu Zhi called out tentatively, "Zhang Yuan?"

There was already a layer of sweat on her body, and steamy and floating waves of water spilled out under the gravel road.

After waiting for a while, no one answered her.

She would rather stand here all night, and she would never move to that pavilion by herself. And across the pavilion, there is a waist-high pool of hot spring water.

"I can't quite come."

Suddenly, the water surged up to her feet.

In the pool, there was obvious movement behind a large stone standing on the right side.

But who knows what you might see that you shouldn't see.

...Xu Zhi remembered that she just saw a bandage in the box.

She asked with difficulty, "Are you going to be tied up?"

The water surged again.

The white mist was also pushed away a lot by the water spray, making her vision clearer, but still hazy.

Fine.

"You wait."

She put the box down and rummaged through the speechless contents.

She clearly remembered that there was a knife inside.

But all she saw was the straps.

Xu Zhi had no choice.

"Yanning, I definitely didn't mean to do this. Who asked you to come to me without saying hello or choosing a time?"

Xu Zhi used a thick belt to tie it tightly behind his head.

She walked slowly towards the edge of the pool. She was sure that something inappropriate would appear, and she was not afraid.

Xu Zhi stretched out her hand to test the temperature of the water. When the water touched her skin, she was about to squat down and slowly descend into the pool and walk to the pavilion.

All sounds are silent.

The sloshing water suddenly stirred up quite a bit.

Bang! She was pulled by a force and pulled into the water.

"I'm not Zhang Yuan."

The water in the hot spring splashed on Xu Zhi's body, a wave of heat penetrated into his bones, and he felt as if his body was sinking.

She was helped upright, and the hand quickly left her waist.

The light in front of him dimmed for less than a moment.

In fear, she tore off the ties in front of her eyes.

I don't know if it's him or his clothes that I'm holding on to, but I finally stand firm.

The hair on his forehead was still wet and messy. More long hair is scattered in the water, like practicing ink, which is thicker than at night.

The falling water slid over the bridge of his nose and gathered at the tip of his nose.

His eyes slowly opened in a splash of excitement. This time, not only the ends of his eyes, but also his lower eyelids were red.

She pushed away so quickly that even a few drops of water hung from his eyelashes.

The eyes are dark and filled with mist, as if thousands of waves are growing on the mountain, resuming the crane's dream.
