King's favor is hard to do

"Du Xiang, Du Xiang! How are you doing?"

Outside the shower room, the butler heard the sound of water inside and felt that he had no idea.Du Xiang was so sick and injured, but suddenly wanted to take a bath?Can he take it physically?

Especially Du Yuzhang's appearance just now...

Just now, shortly after the housekeeper saw off His Majesty, Du Yuzhang called him over.

When the butler entered the room, Du Yuzhang knelt on the couch with his head bowed.His back was facing the door, and the obscene clothes on his body were loose, revealing his thin and tall shoulder blades.Looking at his back, the butler was suddenly startled—when did Du Xiang become so thin?

"Housekeeper, prepare hot water for me, I want to take a bath."

"Ah?" The housekeeper hesitated for a while, "Didn't you get hurt? The wound touched water, I'm afraid it's bad?"

"It's okay." Du Yuzhang's voice was hoarse, "You take some more medicine for sores and bandages. I'll bandage myself after taking a bath."

The more the butler listened to his voice, the more he felt something was wrong.He walked over slowly, and suddenly saw Du Yuzhang's face, and he gasped in fright—why was Du Xiang's cheek stained with blood?

"Du Xiang! Are you okay?"

"fine."

"But your face..."

"I said, it's fine."

Du Yuzhang smiled indifferently,

"It's just a fever for three years. Now, it's time to give up."

"Du Xiang?"

"I, Du Yuzhang, have lost myself for too long. I have been ill for so long because of wishful thinking... It is time to recover from this illness!"

The housekeeper didn't understand the meaning of Du Yuzhang's words at all.But he saw the resolute light in Du Yuzhang's eyes.After following Du Yuzhang for these years, how could he not know that if Du Yuzhang showed his expression, it meant that he had made up his mind and would never change it!

The butler obediently prepared everything, and then stood guard outside the door in fear.

The sound of splashing water continued.When Du Yuzhang called him in again, he had already washed his head and face and changed into new clothes.It still looks like a romantic look, with an outstanding posture.

It's just that there was no blood on his face.A pair of peach blossom eyes are even more red at the corners - as if they have cried bitterly in a place where no one is around.

Looking at the basin of water again, the housekeeper took another breath.The water in the basin turned reddish... How badly was Du Xiang injured?How much blood did you lose?

"Okay, get the water out. You fetch the doctor for me, and I want something to eat."

Although Du Yuzhang's voice was still hoarse, he couldn't hear any emotion.

"There are still many things to do. I have to hurry up, especially not to waste energy on useless people."

……

After a few more days, Du Yuzhang was finally able to walk barely.

Li Guangning hadn't visited him in the past few days.He also never mentioned Li Guangning a word.

When he reappeared in the court hall, the civil and military eyes of both sides shot over, all focusing on him alone.

But when he raised his eyes, he could only see the person sitting on top.Their eyes met, Li Guangning raised his eyebrows, as if he didn't expect him to appear.Immediately, an unknown smile appeared on the emperor's lips.

Du Yuzhang felt pain in his heart, and reflexively wanted to vomit in his abdomen.Even if you make up your mind, you will be sad when you meet again.

With a heavy complexion, Du Yuzhang endured the severe pain and walked slowly to the front of the hall, standing in the first row of civil servants.He kept trying not to look at Li Guangning, but the man's extremely oppressive gaze kept on him.

Throughout the early court, Du Yuzhang felt like a thorn in his back.When the court was finally gone, he immediately walked out, not wanting to stay for a moment.

But he didn't even go out of the Golden Luan Hall, he was blocked by Wang Li.

"Lord Du, His Majesty summoned you."

"Boss Wang, I just recovered from a serious illness. I just stood there for so long, and I'm really not feeling well. I just want to go back and rest. Please explain to His Majesty for me..."

"Lord Du, Your Majesty has an order." Wang Li looked around and said to Du Yuzhang in a low voice, "Your Majesty said—as long as Du Yuzhang is not dead, even if he crawls, he has to crawl over for me."

……

It is still in the imperial study room, and the fragrance of flowers is still overwhelming.After writing the desk, the emperor still hung the vermilion pen high, even the stack of memorials and the placement of the cinnabar plates in front of him remained unchanged.

But he, Du Yuzhang, was still kneeling on the ground, waiting for the abuse that might come at any time.

This scene had happened countless times in the past three years.

Du Yuzhang's leg was seriously injured.Every step I took felt like a knife had been cut in the heart of my leg.Kneeling on the ground now is more like tearing the wound directly, the pain is severe.Soon, he was sweating all over, and his legs were weak.Panting slightly, he propped his hands on the ground to support his body.

"Du Yuzhang, look at yourself, what do you look like?"

Li Guangning's voice suddenly sounded,

"Have I allowed you to stand on the ground? Kneel down for me!"

Du Yuzhang trembled, and looked up blankly.Li Guangning's vermilion pen was hanging between his fingers, a pair of eagle eyes stared at him, with a mocking smile on his lips.

——You will always be just my couch prostitute, never try to turn over!

These words suddenly echoed in Du Yuzhang's ears.Li Guangning in front of him had a cold smile on his face, and Du Yuzhang was dizzy for a while.He was cold all over.

"Why, why don't you kneel down? Du Yuzhang, if I indulge you for a few days, you won't take my words seriously, will you?"

"I dare not."

Du Yuzhang lowered his head, his heart was extremely cold, but he became more sober.

In the past, every time he was blamed, he would defend himself anxiously, begging Li Guangning to understand his sincerity.But at that time, he didn't understand at all—since that person regarded him as a prostitute, even if he cut his whole heart out and sent it up, he would just let others trample on him!

But now...

——Since the ending is doomed, why do you still have to be infatuated with him and only think about him in everything?Why can't you deceive and use him to do what you should do?

——After all, I... I am just a person who has been resurrected from the dead, so I can't say how long I can live on.

Du Yuzhang was completely chilled, but he made up his mind.

"What are you afraid of?"

Li Guangning didn't give up yet.He continued to question,

"I see that you have always acted boldly. If you don't teach you from time to time, you will not know what to do! You have been hiding at home for several days, and you can't even submit a letter of invitation! It seems that you really don't have eyes for me. I don't know who is right. It's your master now!"

Li Guangning's voice was stern, he was really angry.In the past, no matter how ill Du Yuzhang became, his government affairs would never fall behind.He would write to the emperor every day, reporting his illness in addition to government affairs.

But this time, there was no news for several days!

"Why, are you thinking something you shouldn't have? Thinking that I dote on you, you plan to turn the world upside down!"

"I never dare to overthrow the sky. Your Majesty is the sky of the minister."

Du Yuzhang interrupted Li Guangning suddenly.He raised his head and smiled at Li Guangning—that pair of peach blossom eyes were full of love, and it was really a charming smile.
