After about a stick of incense, the head guard Duan took the man away. Chan'er asked outside if someone would come in to serve the bath. Gu Xizhao leaned against the bathtub, squinted her eyes and looked at the veil behind the screen. After a while, she replied lazily: "No, I want to be alone and calm down, so you can retreat first."

"yes."

After confirming that everyone outside had left, Gu Xizhao raised her hand to catch some peach petals from the bathtub, and cleverly twisted the petals into a ball with her fingers. Then she threw them towards the yarn behind the screen. When she heard the sound, she lay on the edge of the bathtub and yelled softly at the other side of the yarn, "Why don't you come out soon?"

There was no movement behind the shiban for a long time. Gu Xizhao took off the jade bracelet on his wrist, held it in his hand and played with it for a few times, and scared him over again, "If you don't come out, it's not a petal that hit you..." As he said that, the jade bracelet in his hand fell to the ground, and the crisp sound of jade breaking scared the figure behind the shiban trembled.

Immediately afterwards, a figure jumped out and knelt behind the screen.

"Concubine Xi..."

"Tsk, it turns out to be the second prince?" Gu Xizhao pretended to be surprised.

Zhao Sansi now hates his unpromising appearance. First, he hates his brainlessness. He has been bullied by the palace maids and eunuchs, and has forgotten his prince's honor. He has been chased and ran away for so long. Then he hates that he is blind and accidentally hides in the Changle Palace. Finally, there are so many houses in Changle Palace, but he just hides in the room where Concubine Xi wants to take a bath.

She felt that if she was a solar term, she should have hit her head to death when she saw her prince's favorite concubine untied her clothes, otherwise she would be fine if she bit her tongue and committed suicide.

However, when she thought that she had worked so hard to grow up so big, she could eat and drink, be free and free in a few years, and marry a beautiful and beautiful lady like a flower, and take a few beautiful concubines with graceful figures. Although she could not do anything openly, she would listen to them sing a small song every day and watch them dance some of the best dances. The taste was also considered to be ecstasy and dying.

When she thought about these wonderful days in the future, she would not have the courage to hit her head and would not be willing to bite her tongue.

"Xi... Concubine Xi, I...I didn't see anything..."

"Does the second prince want to see something else?"

"No, no, no." Zhao Sansi's tongue became nervous. She raised her head slightly, remembered something and quickly lowered her head, "I...I don't know this, this is the place where you bathe. At that time, that palace maid, chasing me in a hurry, I'm panicked...I'm not panicked..."

What was the word called? Zhao Sansi scratched his head and was so anxious that he wanted to cry. He couldn't remember it for a long time. In some way, he suddenly remembered the fact that this concubine had a chicken leg last year. He sat on the ground and started crying.

"..." The second prince was made of water, but he really likes to cry. Those who didn't know about it thought he was bullying her. Fortunately, this person was a little brainy and didn't dare to cry loudly. Gu Xizhao listened indifferently to her crying hoarsely as if she was holding her breath, and slowly reminded her, "Second Prince, although I was not a formal marriage from your royal brother, I am also your nominal sister-in-law. Do you know what crime is this?"

"I...uh...I said everything, uh, I didn't mean it." Anyway, there was no worse situation than this, Zhao Sansi simply threw it away, "Today... today... if the matter is spread, Concubine Xi... I'm afraid that she won't get the best...uh...why, it's better, it's better, we both pretend that nothing has happened before...uh...you sent me out of the palace, and then, the water in the well will not break the river..."

Tsk, is this going to threaten yourself? I underestimate this little prince.

Listening to Zhao Sansi's sob, Gu Xizhao did not feel the urgency of being threatened, but instead wanted to tease her more and more, "There are hundreds of palace courtyards in this palace, and there are countless houses of all sizes, but the second prince just ran to the Changle Palace of Chen, and was hiding from the house where Chen was bathing. Could it be... Isn't it just that I want to have something happen to me?"

Gu Xizhao's voice has always been lazy, but in Zhao Sansi's eyes, Concubine Xi in front of her was □□. This can bring a bit of charming and coquettishness by just reverie. The sound now fell into her ears and became more coquettish and affectionate for no reason, which made her whole body numb and her heart beat faster. "Concubine Xizhao must be careful of her words, I don't have this intention. Don't talk nonsense. You have to..."

"Shh." Before she could finish her words, Gu Xizhao suddenly shrew at her, scaring Zhao Sansi so much that she quickly covered her mouth. For a moment, the room could only hear her heartbeat.

After a quiet moment, footsteps sounded from far to near, and then the door was knocked three times, "Empress, cicada, let me ask you, the water temperature is still hot, do you want to add water?"

Zhao Sansi was so scared that he didn't dare to let out when he listened to the palace maid's voice. He was nervously waiting for Gu Xizhao's answer.

"No, the water temperature is OK. After another stick of incense, you can come to change your clothes for me."

"Yes, that servant will come here to change your clothes later."

When it became quiet outside again, Gu Xizhao reached out and scooped water on his arm. The water was indeed a little cold. Although it was late spring, it was still a little cold as it was night.

The crisp sound of water suddenly caused some ambiguity in this silent atmosphere for no reason. Zhao Sansi buried his head low and did not dare to cry anymore. He grabbed his sleeves and pulled it back and forth. After a while, he finally plucked up the courage and took it out with his red cheeks. "Concubine Xi, what do you mean?"

Whether to live together or die together, she gave a happy word, nervous and shameless, and was really heart-wrenching.

There was not much time for a stick of incense, and Gu Xizhao also looked slightly correct, "For today's matter, it is not necessary for the second prince to keep his mouth shut. But..."

After hearing this, Zhao Sansi quickly patted his cheeks that were hot because he was too nervous. "I will remember the great kindness of the imperial concubine today and will thank her again in the future."

"If the second prince tells the truth with me today and tells me why I react so much to Hua Rong changing clothes for you today. Not only will I not disclose a word about this matter today, but you are making a mess in the entire palace, I will also help you to the emperor..."

To be honest... Could it be that she told the Concubine Xi in front of her that she is actually a daughter? Besides, even if she is willing to tell the truth, Concubine Xi may not believe it. Could it be that she even let her take off her clothes and jump into the bathtub and let the Concubine take a good look at her daughter?

Zhao Sansi's mind turned back and forth, then looked at the edge of the bathtub through the screen, gritted his teeth, and decided to lie and escape the disaster first, "Would the imperial concubine really listen?"

Gu Xizhao was very busy, "I have to listen seriously."

Zhao Sansi bit his lip, "To be honest, I'm sick."

"What disease?" Gu Xizhao was slightly stunned, and made up her mind to get to the bottom of it. Seeing that she was wandering and unwilling to speak, she added, "I sincerely want to help the second prince. If the second prince does not trust me, then I can only shout "immoral" when the maid comes over to protect myself."

Zhao Sansi, who was particularly afraid of death, did not care whether he was ashamed or not, so he could only speak more bluntly, "I... look not very good there, I am afraid that the people who serve me will be scared, so I am afraid that others will be afraid of..."

Where? Where?

Gu Xizhao blinked blankly, and after a moment of reaction, her face suddenly turned red - Bah, if it weren't for the little prince's timid little mouse, she would have thought that this was a disciple who was deliberately teasing her.

After a while of silence, Gu Xizhao pretended to be calm and spoke in the tone of an elder, and calmly advised: "You are a noble prince, don't talk about that... you are just ugly. Even if you don't grow up, I will not dare to laugh at you. Besides, there are so many famous doctors in the Imperial Hospital, and I will... tomorrow..."

"Concubine Xi, don't make things public." Lie for a while, she actually forgot that there was an imperial physician. When she took off her pants and checked, wouldn't she be frightened? Zhao Sansi felt that she shouldn't have heard the old eunuch's words today and had a delicious meal. Look at what her life was like this?

Gu Xizhao felt that the more he spoke, the more he was, the more he was, but he was interrupted, so he had to act like an elder again, "Second Prince, it is wrong to avoid medical treatment. Besides, your prince now values ​​you. In the future, you must get used to the days when the palace servants are around to serve you."

Although this is unpleasant, Zhao Sansi felt that Concubine Xi said in front of him really came to the point...

"Concubine Xi..."

"Hmm?" Gu Xizhao raised her eyes lazily, and was so scared that she quickly slipped into the bathtub again, "Second...Second Prince, what are you doing?"

Zhao Sansi sniffed. Just as the moment of flashing lightning, she felt that Concubine Xi was a good person. The most important thing was that she was powerful in the harem, and her emperor brother also spoiled her. This big tree should be leaned on more safely. So she plucked the courage to walk out from behind the screen, and don’t leave or untie her belt...

"Prince 22, if you don't stop, I...really call me..."

"Okay, no, I'm not here..." Seeing Concubine Xi who was so scared that she was so scared, Zhao Sansi quickly stood there, "Concubine, don't be afraid, I have no other intentions..."

"Dengtuzi, where do you look at your eyes..."

Zhao Sansi quickly turned his head over again. In desperation, he simply told the truth, "I am also a woman."

The air solidified for a moment, and Gu Xizhao said in disbelief: "What did you say just now?"

"I'm also a woman." Zhao Sansi untied her belt in one go, pulled her clothes and showed her the wrapping inside. She probably went out and didn't stutter. "At that time, my mother was unable to think about it for a moment, thinking that her father and prince would not have a strong son. If she gave birth to a prince, she would be favored. But my father still neglected her, but I had to live so long as a prince. In the past, all the nanny were all the nanny, but now the nanny and mother were dead. No one could cover up the huge palace for me. How dare I let the palace servants serve me in bathing and changing clothes..."

Gu Xizhao stared at her breast wrapped in white cloth in a daze, and it took her a long time to come back to her senses. She regretted how much she said just now. Now that the little prince shared such a shocking secret with her, it was really... fatal.

After Zhao Sansi finished telling the shocking secret, he was nervous and stared at Gu Xizhao with good eyes. However, without waiting for anyone to express his opinion, the annoying palace maid came over again. She quickly pulled her clothes and ran to the back of the screen in panic.

"Empress, I'm going to change my clothes."

Gu Xizhao's mind was still on the white cloth-wrapped breast that had just been. The palace maid asked again before she came to her senses, "Come in."

After getting her correct words, four palace maids walked in with things in a row. Cicada walked in front and helped her get up from the bathtub. When she saw that she was still wearing close-fitting clothes, she couldn't help but wonder, "Why didn't the Empress take a shower today?"

"Huh?" Gu Xizhao looked down, glanced at the curtain behind the screen, and said perfunctorily: "It was probably a hurry to come in, and it was very comfortable to soak in it, and I forgot it for a moment."

Chan'er didn't think much about it, lowered her head and helped her untie her bellyband, applied the essential oil held by the harem maid on her hands, and then skillfully pressed and rubbed Gu Xizhao's back.

Before he finished pressing a set of techniques, Gu Xizhao raised his hand and waved it, "Cyan'er, the Japanese palace is so exhausted today. Forget it, I'll serve my palace to dress."

"Yes." Chan'er was stunned for a moment. Seeing that her face was impatient, she didn't ask any more questions. She cleaned her hands and helped her out of the bathtub. One of them was helping to wipe her body, and the other was holding the clothes. Chan'er took the clothes one by one and put them on her body.

Zhao Sansi, who had only served her bathing since she was a child, hid behind the curtain. She vaguely watched so many palace maids serving Gu Xizhao to change clothes, and did not feel embarrassed at all that she had peeped at this Concubine Xi to take a bath.

After putting on his clothes, Gu Xizhao refused to let the palace servant clean up the house. "The water in this bathtub will pour it down tomorrow and take it to water a few peach blossom trees in the yard. Don't pick up other people's peach blossoms for nothing. Let's go and rest early today."

"yes."

"By the way, Chan'er, when Guard Duan left, some palace servants talked too much about the thief in our palace today?"

"No. Please rest assured, I have already hit them."
