Chapter 4:

Although the inn is located in the bustling capital city, it takes time to get back to the palace by carriage from the inn.

Every time Xia Yi used spells to teleport, this time it was very inconvenient to bring A Ruan, besides, the snacks, roast chicken, various fruits and bacon that A Ruan asked to bring were really inconvenient to use spells, so Xia Yi had to choose Take a carriage.

Although he passed through the prosperous streets along the way, Ah Ruan had already seen enough of the surrounding areas these days, and he got tired of looking at them within a few seconds.

Coupled with the turbulence along the way, Ah Ruan was dizzy and felt sleepy again.

"Hmm... Yi Ze... I'm a little sleepy, can you lend me a cuddle? I want to sleep for a while..."

"There is nothing you can do. Ah Ruan, come, sit beside me."

So A Ruan was pulled up and sat next to Xia Yize. The height difference was just enough for A Ruan to lean on Xia Yize's shoulder.

It happened that Xia Yi was still wearing the gray gown, which was soft and fluffy, and Xia Yi had broad shoulders, which made Ah Ruan relax with a sudden feeling.

After a while, Ah Ruan's eyelids began to twitch, "Well... Yi Ze smells delicious... Yi Ze... Remember to call me when you get home..."

"Silly girl." Xia Yi gave a doting smile, raised her hand and gently stroked A Ruan's hair from behind, as if everything was going so smoothly.

All of Ah Ruan's breath sprayed on Xia Yize's neck, making Xia Yize feel as helpless as a feather touching his heart.

He looked down at the girl on his shoulder who was already asleep, her fair cheeks were slightly red on both sides, her pink and tender mouth seemed to be slightly opened, and the comfortable breath was spit out from her mouth, which made people think of ripe cherries.

Xia Yi, on the other hand, couldn't help herself, leaned down and pressed a light kiss on A Ruan's delicate lips in a daze.

Xia Yi was a little carried away by the girl's fragrant and warm touch.

Just when he got up, Ah Ruan moved a bit, and murmured: "Yi Ze..."

Xia Yi woke up instantly, looked at the girl in front of him incredulously, and blushed immediately.

Just now... what were you... doing?

While A Ruan was sleeping soundly, he actually took advantage of A Ruan?

Such behavior is nothing short of beastly.

Xia Yi suddenly looked down on his behavior, and was about to wait for A Ruan to wake up and apologize, only to find that A Ruan was still asleep, and his whole heart eased a little.

Ah Ruan, just now... did she notice something?

Xia Yi thought so, and felt that such behavior was really a villain, so he decided to apologize to Ah Ruan when she was awake after entering the palace.

After walking for a long time, the carriage was still very quiet, except for Ah Ruan's breathing, Xia Yi didn't dare to move a bit.

It took a long time to walk in until the gate of the palace, but the nine-curved corridor was just further forward.

Xia Yi whispered: "Ah Ruan...wake up, we are here."

"..."

"Ah Ruan?..."

"..."

Ah Ruan never responded, and was still in a deep sleep.Xia Yi had no choice but to follow the trend.

So the palace people who had already kneeled in two rows outside the carriage were stunned to see their new emperor carrying a woman in green from the carriage and ordered no one to salute, so no one dared to speak.

Xia Yi hugged Ah Ruan back to the residence and placed him lightly on the bed. He sat by the bed and waited for a long time but still did not see Ah Ruan waking up.

Reluctantly, he had no choice but to leave first to deal with matters. Before leaving, he ordered the four servant girls who took care of A Ruan to take care of him carefully.

By the time Ah Ruan got enough sleep, it was almost evening.

A Ruan who opened his eyes could clearly feel that he was lying on a big soft bed, his eyes were filled with gentle pink, the soft gauze on the top of the bed was in the shape of flowers blooming, and the room was burning with a touch of sandalwood , the bead curtains made a crisp and pleasant sound after the breeze blew slowly.

Ah Ruan stared blankly at everything in front of him, and when he got up, four gentle and gentle women greeted him.

"Huh? Who are you? Where is Yi Ze? Have you seen him?"

Then, the four maids were all stunned.

Yi Ze, the name of their new emperor is known to everyone but no one dares to say it.

The faces of the four maids were so frightened that they wished they could plug their ears now, so they never heard what the person in front of them said just now.

Ah Ruan was even more puzzled when he saw it, "Hey, did you see a man in a gray robe just now, his name is Xia Yize~"

A bold maid finally broke the embarrassment, and said timidly: "Gu, miss... Your majesty... Your majesty left beforehand, and told the servants that if she wakes up, she will wait..."

"Hmm... Your Majesty?... So that's how it is~ Thank you~ My name is A Ruan, how about you?" After speaking, A Ruan took the initiative to entrust a blessing as self-introduction.

Then the four maids were all stunned again, they haven't seen anyone salute them after staying in the palace for so long...

After hastily returning the gift, the four of them asked Ah Ruan what he needed, and after making sure everything was safe, they hurriedly retreated. God knows what kind of person they met just now.

After all four people retreated, Ah Ruan took a closer look at the room.

In Ah Ruan's eyes, the room is very big and beautiful, and there is also a very fine hollow carved dressing table, which is filled with countless rouge and gouache, and they are all packed in various small crystal clear bottles.

But after staying for a long time, Ah Ruan became bored, after all, the palace was not as lively and interesting as the bustling market.

The four maids are very polite, no matter what A Ruan says, the four are cautious.

So Ruan shut himself in the room and summoned Ahri and Xiaohong, "Ahri, Ahri~ We haven't played the game of stealing treasure for a long time~ Let's play now, shall we?"

Ari raised her hand in agreement, "Meow~~~"

"Hey~ That's great~ Hurry up and come back soon~"

After finishing speaking, Ari disappeared into the room.

Ah Ruan patted Xiao Hong's head and asked, "Xiao Hong, what good things do you think Ah Li can find this time?"

Xiao Hong wagged her tail, feeling that she was not needed for the time being, so she went to take a nap somewhere.

An hour later, Ah Ruan walked up to Xiaohong and patted it on the head again, saying: "Xiaohong, why don't you say Ahri hasn't come back? According to usual, you should have found the treasure long ago! You smelled Ahri's smell and accompanied him. I'll go look for it, okay?"

Xiaohong stood up obediently, let Ah Ruan ride on her, and then went out to leave.

The four maids were paralyzed again, and their girl rode a leopard out of the room?

"Don't be afraid, it's called Xiaohong, it's a divine beast, it won't bite~ I'll go find Ari, and I'll be back as soon as I find it, soon~"

When Ah Ruan ran away, the four maids also reacted and ran towards Xia Yize's Imperial Palace...

Xiaohong smelled Ahri's scent and searched for it, and found it soon after.

So it frightened the people in another yard.

When Ah Li saw Ah Ruan, he rushed over and hid in Ah Ruan's arms, rubbing back and forth for a long time.

"You raised this beast?" Ah Ruan raised his head, only to see a heavily made-up but extremely luxurious woman walking towards him with anger.

"What kind of beast! Ahri is not, it is my good friend, hum!" Ah Ruan was very unhappy, for such a long time, he had never seen anyone call Ahri such an ugly word.

"This civet cat blatantly climbed up on the table to pick up the jasper hairpin while I was dressing up and ran away. Isn't it a beast? What are you doing to dare to ride a leopard in the palace?"

"A raccoon is not a civet cat, but a divine beast! It is also my good friend~" A Ruan emphasized again, "And Xiaohong is not a leopard, she is also my good friend!"

The luxurious woman was completely confused by Ah Ruan.

"But since Ari stole your stuff, I'll give it back to you. Sorry, I just want to play a game with it..."

When several maids brought the hairpin stolen by Ari back to the girl's head, the maid immediately praised: "Young lady's hairpin really adds color to the girl. I believe that the dance tonight will definitely win the emperor's favor."

Now it was Ah Ruan's turn to be stunned... "Your Majesty?... Yi Ze? Do you want to show Yi Ze a dance?"

"Yi..." The luxurious woman swallowed her surprised saliva, "Bold! You dare to call the emperor's name? You should slap your mouth!"

"I see who would dare—"

"I've seen the emperor—" Everyone in the yard fell to their knees in a huff.

"Hey, why are you all kneeling down?" Ah Ruan was wondering, when he saw Xia Yi walking towards him.

When I saw it again, Xia Yi was already dressed in a yellow robe, with awe-inspiring eyes, not angry but majestic.

Hey, Yi Ze changed his clothes~ Yi Ze looks good no matter what clothes he wears, hee~

Ah Ruan was thinking about it, but Xia Yi had already walked in front of him. Although Xia Yi, who was already wearing a dragon robe under the sun, looked solemn and majestic, he still looked at Ah Ruan with gentle eyes, "Ah Ruan, why are you running?" Out?"

"Well... I'm bored in the room by myself, and the four sisters don't play with me~ So I played a game of finding treasures with Ari, but Ari went away for a long time and didn't come back. I came out I'm looking for Ari~"

"Meow~~~~" Ari echoed, and Xiao Hongshun immediately shook her tail.

Xia Yi was slightly powerless, because the point of the matter was not here at all.

Recalling the scene just now, I don't know if things would have gotten worse if I had come one step later.

"Ah Ruan, since I found Ah Li, I will leave first. I still have some things to deal with. Can you wait for me outside the courtyard?"

"Well, then Yi must come quickly~"

Xia Yi nodded, gave Ah Ruan a soft look, and saw that Ah Ruan had left the yard, then turned around again and resumed his usual stern and awe-inspiring look.

His eyes fixed on the woman who was lying on the ground, and his brows were furrowed.At this moment, the woman could also feel the chill coming from above, but she still didn't dare to raise her head to explain.

It's been a long time.

Xia Yi stretched his eyebrows slightly, and said seriously: "I think you should be clear about your identity, if you want to save your life, you should be quiet."

The woman on the ground was already trembling after hearing this, and squeezed out a sentence through her teeth, "This concubine must remember."

After the woman finished speaking, Xia Yi didn't pay attention to anything, turned and left.

The woman kneeling on the ground is now paralyzed. God knows if she would have lost her life because of the words of the man in front of her at that moment of silence just now.

Thinking about it carefully, what did I do wrong?I just wanted to punish that strange woman who dared to call His Majesty by her first name.
