dumb queen

Xiaoju got up from the ground in a very embarrassing situation, covered in dirt, trembling with anger, commanding Xie Chaoge even more fiercely, asking him to wash all the dirty clothes after busy work.

When Xie Chaoge's palm first came into contact with the icy water, there were bursts of piercing pain. The icy water was like ice knives, which could easily pierce his tender palm and slip into his flesh for a while. After a while, it flowed out with his blood and mixed into the whole piece of cold water.

After a while, the water was stained red with blood.

Xie Chaoge thought it would be fine if he persisted in washing his clothes so that he would not have to soak in the cold water anymore, but he was in so much pain that the wound on his palm had already turned slightly white from the blisters, and the scars began to fade. It became swollen, turned slightly outward, and looked terrible.

His body trembled a little, and he asked Xiao Ju in sign language if he could find some waterproof ointment for himself, the pain was so unbearable.

But Xiaoju couldn't understand sign language at all, and thought that Xie Chaoge's move was just for laziness, and she became even more angry, aggressively forcing Xie Chaoge to finish washing quickly.

Xie Chaoge had no choice but to grit his teeth and continue to persevere, finally washing all the clothes with difficulty.

But Xiaoju deliberately walked in front of those clean clothes, pretending to accidentally kick the basin over.

"Oh, why did you put the clean clothes here? It's blocking my way. I didn't mean to kick them over. It's all because you put them in the wrong place."

This is what Bai Xuanyan ordered, and he must make trouble for Xie Chaoge everywhere, and he must not make it easier for him.

Xie Chaoge looked at the clothes scattered all over the floor. He endured the severe pain and cleaned them bit by bit. Who knew that they would be soiled so easily again.

Xiaoju was still yelling, asking him to wash everything again immediately.

But Xie Chaoge stood still, just looked at Xiaoju coldly, he was trying his best to bear it, if this Xiaoju still persecuted him like this, he really wanted to stuff her into the water tank.

Xiao Ju felt uncomfortable being pierced by Xie Chaoge's eyes, as if he was the one who had the upper hand and could boss her around, no matter how much she had the backing of Concubine Bai, she seemed to be inferior.

"You! How dare you disobey orders! Okay, let's go see Concubine Bai! Let's see how Concubine Bai will deal with you!"

Xiao Ju had someone escort Xie Chaoge all the way to the front of the main hall of Xuanyan Palace.

Before seeing Bai Xuanyan's face, Xiaoju began to cry and cry aggrievedly, "Mother! You must be the master of your slave!"

The people in the hall let the two go in, Xie Chaoge lowered his head, and followed Xiaoju into the main hall gate.

After entering, he saw that Xiao Jin was still in Xuanyan Palace, and wondered if he had been here and never left.

Seeing the emperor here, Xiaoju immediately felt her back straighter, and cried and told Xie Chaoge's crimes, saying that not only did he not take himself seriously, but he deliberately pushed himself into the dirty water. Bai Xuanyan was really furious.

But Xiao Jin was still here, so Bai Xuanyan pretended to be wronged and said, "Your Majesty, you also heard that this concubine kindly wanted to help Concubine Xie, who knew that Concubine Xie didn't seem to appreciate it at all. kind hearted."

Xiao Jin first waved his hand to make Xiao Ju retreat, and then comforted Bai Xuanyan, "Don't be sad, my concubine, I know that concubine's thoughts are not enough?"

Bai Xuanyan still looked aggrieved, "But Concubine Xie can't understand my concubine's thoughts at all."

Xie Chaoge slightly raised his head and glanced at the two people in front of him. He didn't believe that Xiao Jin really didn't know what Bai Xuanyan was thinking, but Xiao Jin still defended him like this. It seemed that he really loved Bai Xuanyan to the bottom of his heart.

"That person who doesn't know good and bad is not worthy of my concubine's sorrow."

Xiao Jin looked back at Xie Chaoge coldly, and then saw Xie Chaoge turn his eyes away with disgust, this action immediately made Xiao Jin's eyes a little colder.

"Yes, all the courtiers and concubines listen to the emperor."

Bai Xuanyan said flatteringly, "Your Majesty, the tea in your cup is almost cold, and I will ask someone to add some more for you."

After finishing speaking, Bai Xuanyan looked at Xie Chaoge standing in the hall and said, "Then invite Concubine Xie to bring some tea to the emperor."

Xie Chaoge closed his eyes lightly, then walked forward, picked up the teapot on the table, leaned forward and stood in front of Xiao Jin, deliberately kept a long distance from him, and poured tea for him .

The moment his palm touched the handle of the teapot, there was a fine pain, but Xie Chaoge didn't want to show it in front of Bai Xuanyan, it would only make him happier and more arrogant, so Xie Chaoge gritted his teeth and endured it.

I could feel Xiao Jin's eyes were on him all the time, but Xie Chaoge forced himself not to pay attention, and finally poured the tea, he wanted to stand back quickly and far away.

But Bai Xuanyan coughed lightly from the side, and then signaled with his eyes that Xie Chaoge would also refill himself with tea.

Xie Chaoge squeezed the handle secretly, then walked to Bai Xuanyan's side to refill him with tea.

After adding it, Bai Xuanyan had to make an inch and said, "Help me carry it."

Xie Chaoge only paused for a moment, then obediently picked up the teacup for Bai Xuanyan, and handed it to him.

Bai Xuanyan pretended to reach out to pick it up, but when Xie Chaoge was about to let go, he deliberately tilted the teacup in his direction, and then the teacup fell from the hands of the two, and all the slightly hot tea was poured on Bai Xuanyan.

Bai Xuanyan screamed suddenly, and tears fell out as soon as she said it.

Before Xie Chaoge realized what was going on, he heard a cold and angry order from behind.

"Kneel down."

Xie Chaoge knelt down straight, lowered his head, and then bit his lips tightly.

Bai Xuanyan did it on purpose!In order to get himself punished, he did not hesitate to resort to cruel tricks.

"Your majesty, my concubine is in so much pain~"

Bai Xuanyan was already crying until the pear blossoms were raining, Xiao Jin went to support him, and said in a deep voice, "Mr. Xuan."

Then he looked at Xie Chaoge again and said, "Go out and kneel."

Xie Chaoge raised his eyes and glanced at Xiao Jin silently, but the man's gaze was too complicated and deep, like a bottomless ancient pool, Xie Chaoge tried his best to see in his eyes nothing but cold Any unexpected emotions, unfortunately, are futile after all.

Xie Chaoge stood up obediently, walked outside the main hall of Xuanyan Palace, and knelt down slowly.

In fact, some of the scalding tea just now splashed into the palm of his hand, but the pain there was already almost numb, and now it just deepened the existing scar.

But even so, he still clenched his fists tightly, his fingers hidden under the sleeves, so that no one could see him. In fact, scarlet blood was slowly flowing into the robe along his fingertips.

Because otherwise, Xie Chaoge was afraid that he would not be able to help but want to cry, so he had to open his eyes wide and stare resolutely in order to force those tears back into his eyes.

An imperial physician rushed over, it was Liu Sheng who had seen Xie Chaoge's injuries earlier.

Liu Sheng was a little surprised when he saw the person kneeling at the entrance of the hall, but he didn't dare to go forward to ask more questions, he just took a hasty look at Xie Chaoge, and went straight into the hall.

After diagnosing Bai Xuanyan's injury, Liu Sheng said that there was nothing serious about it, because the hot water was not directly splashed on the skin, and there was a layer of clothing in between, so just apply a little plaster.

During the whole diagnosis process, Xiao Jin did not stand by Bai Xuanyan's side, but stood in front of the window of the main hall and kept looking outside.

Liu Sheng prescribed some medicine for Bai Xuanyan, and then he was about to leave, but after seeing the emperor's back, Liu Sheng hesitated for a while, and stepped forward to call, "Your Majesty."

Xiao Jin responded with a deep voice.

Liu Sheng boldly said, "Your Majesty, I have something, I think it's better to report it to you. It's like this, when I came into the hall just now, I saw Concubine Xie kneeling outside the hall. Damn, he..."

"Did I let you speak?"

Xiao Jin's voice came over, it was obviously cold and calm without a trace of waves, but one could feel something faintly suppressed under the calm surface.

A layer of cold sweat broke out on Liu Sheng's back in an instant.
