Crazy criticizes Emperor Ji for marrying the regent and becoming more powerful

"What are you doing! Although you are responsible for the fall of the border town, the responsibility does not entirely lie on you. You don't have to take all the responsibility on yourself." Xiahou Qiman said helplessly.

"Having said that, as the leader of a border town, I can't help but feel guilty." Shen Changyi said with great self-blame.

"We will discuss this later when you return to Shengjing to report on your duties. Now, heal your injuries first."

Seeing that the high-spirited Shen Changyi had fallen to this point, Xiahou sighed and couldn't bear to blame him anymore.

"What the prince said makes sense. General Shen should take good care of himself so that he can atone for his sins in the future and continue to serve Wansheng Kingdom." After seeing this, Nangong Fuyang also helped Xia Houqi to comfort Shen Changyi.

Shen Changyi nodded and said nothing more.

At this time, Shen Changyi noticed a woman lying on the bed. He glanced over and was shocked by the woman's peerless appearance.

How could such a beautiful woman be so breathtakingly beautiful?

"Your Majesty, who is this?" Shen Changyi looked at Chu Xi and asked.

Only then did Xia Houqi realize that Shen Changyi had not met Chu Xi yet, so naturally he did not know her identity.

"This is Di Ji. This time she came with me to regain the border city. She was accidentally injured and cannot move for the time being." Xia Houqi explained softly.

Hearing this, Shen Changyi stood up quickly, knelt down and kowtowed in the direction of the bed, and saluted Chu Xi.

Chu Xi was still immersed in the emotion of self-blame. Now when she saw someone suddenly kowtowing to her, she was immediately confused and looked at Xia Houqi as if asking for help.

Xiahou abandoned the meeting and deliberately ignored it, allowing Shen Changyi to salute her.

"I will join you at the end, Your Majesty the Emperor. I would like to thank Your Majesty the Emperor for being injured in rescuing the people in the border town!"

Chu Xi's strength only recovered a little, and she could only breathe a little:

"No need to thank you"

Then he glared at Xia Houqi again, blaming him for not helping him.

Seeing Chu Xi's face turn red, Xia Houqi became a good person, stood up and helped Shen Changyi up again.

"Okay, Di Ji doesn't have much strength right now, so I can't reply to you too much. You go back and rest first. If you have anything else to do, wait till dawn."

Hearing this, Shen Changyi nodded, and then Nangong Fuyang escorted Shen Changyi back to his original residence to rest.

Seeing this, Feng Yue also exited the room, leaving only a bottle of golden sore medicine.

After they all left the room, Xiahou Qicai picked up the golden sore medicine on the table and walked to the bed to apply the medicine to Chu Xi.

There were too many people just now, so it was inconvenient to give Chu Xi the medicine. Now that there were only two of them left, there would be no inconvenience. Xia Houqi untied Chu Xi's coat and pulled down her inner garment. , revealing the injured shoulder.

Chu Xi inexplicably felt that this scene was astringent, so she closed her eyes shyly and used her body to feel Xia Houqi's movements.

Xia Houqi's movements were very gentle. When he applied the medicine to her, he couldn't be more careful for fear of hurting her.

Because she had just applied the medicine and couldn't put on clothes directly, Chu Xi's shoulders could only be exposed like this.

Her pitiful look reminded Xia Houqi of a poem:

Her fragrant shoulders are half exposed with a glass of wine, and her lips are as red as peach blossoms.

It's just that Chu Xi's lips are pale at this time, which doesn't match the second half of the poem.

"What are you looking at? Rogue-"

I don't know when Chu Xi's strength has recovered and she can speak complete words, and her first sentence was to scold Xia Houqi.

"Has your strength returned?" Xia Houqi raised his eyebrows, still looking at her shoulder nakedly. Chu Xi had never seen such a shameless person before. Even though they scolded him, he was still happy and continued to look at his exposed skin.

If it weren't for the pain in her shoulder and her ability to move around, she would definitely have punched him.

"Put my clothes on," Chu Xi glared at Xia Houqi accusingly.

"I just applied the medicine. The medicine powder has not been absorbed by the wound, so I can't put on clothes. Please bear with it a little longer and I'll put it on for you later." Xia Houqi chuckled softly.

Chu Xi always felt that Xia Houqi's smile was weird, but she couldn't say anything.

In about a quarter of an hour, Xia Houqi put on Chu Xi's clothes. After all, it was still very cold, and you would catch a cold if you were exposed outside for a long time.

He just wanted to tease Chu Xi, not really want her to get sick.

"Did Xiao Ruyan catch him?"

Chu Xi regained all her strength, and then asked about Xiao Yan's whereabouts.

"I don't know. Xiao Ruyan will be chased by Ta Feng and won't let her escape." Xia Houqi said softly.

If Xiao Ruyan could change from being strict to escaping, he would really admire this woman, she was really capable.

However, Xia Houqiu felt that this was not possible.

Hearing this, Chu Xi nodded, then slowly raised his head, looked at Xia Houqi, hesitated for a while, and said:

"Sorry, I burdened you"

Xia Houqi was stunned for a moment. He didn't know why she thought so, but he still said patiently:

"You didn't drag me down, but I failed to protect you and got you injured."

Xia Houqi also blamed himself. He just watched Xiao Ruyan hurt his beloved in front of him. His self-blame and guilt were beyond words.

"No, if Nan Xi were here today, she would never let Xiao Ruyan succeed, let alone get herself hurt. It's because I'm so useless. As expected, I'd better stay in the body and not come out. Once I came out, I couldn’t do anything to help, and I even got hurt.”

Chuxi's eyes turned red as she spoke. She didn't want to cry, but she just felt guilty and felt useless.

Seeing this, Xia Houqi felt extremely distressed. He carefully took the person into his arms, and then comforted him in a low voice:

"Don't belittle yourself so much. You are not useless, and Nan Xi is not omnipotent. You are all important. There is no such thing as dragging down the other, do you understand?"

Chu Xi leaned on Xia Houqi's shoulder and shook her head in denial.

Xia Houqi couldn't help but smile, "Chu Xi, don't be like this. I just think you are so cute and want to kiss you."

Hearing Xia Houqi's words, Chu Xi suddenly raised her head and looked at Xia Houqi as if she were looking at an animal!

"I'm already like this, and you still want to take advantage of me!"

"I can't help it. Who told you to look beautiful when you cry? I am very moved." Xia Houqi started teasing the child again.

Chu Xi didn't hear that he was teasing her, so she quickly wiped away her tears, then widened her eyes and looked at Xia Houqi.

"Don't you think that if you wipe away your tears, I will let you go?"

"You, you, you, why are you so perverted! You were not like this before!"

In the past, Xia Houqi was very noble, with eyes on the top of his head, and was very arrogant. How could he be such a rogue like now!

"You also said it was in the past. We were not an unmarried couple before, but it is different now. Even if I press you down on the bed and kiss you today, no one will say anything wrong." Xia Houqi said very coquettishly. .

Hearing this, Chu Xi's eyes widened:

Xia Houqi is so perverted!
