The emperor's plan: to rule the world

Chapter 176
Gu Qingyi was startled.

She was angry, but now...

She frowned involuntarily. Her Majesty the Empress couldn't figure out why she was so angry.

Because he was injured?

Or is it because he thinks he doesn't take his words seriously?

like……

does she like him
Do you like this man in front of you?
Frowning slightly, unable to figure out this question, Her Majesty the Empress decided not to think about it for the time being.

He stretched out his hand to pull him up from the ground, and his knees, which had been kneeling for a long time, suddenly stood up straight, and a sharp and severe pain suddenly came. Qin Shu's legs went limp, and he almost fell on top of her.

There were bursts of blackness in front of his eyes, he subconsciously grabbed her arm, but barely let go of it in the next moment - he was afraid of hurting her.

Noticing his small movements, Gu Qingyi's eyes darkened slightly.

Supporting him to stand firm, looking at his pale and almost transparent face, Gu Qingyi said indifferently: "Xiyu, pass on the bath."

Xi Yu, who was guarding outside the hall, said respectfully: "Yes."

"Can you go?"

Qin Shu looked at her for a while, then nodded.

The true energy in the body circulated quickly, which relieved the fatigue of the body a little. Qin Shu pursed his lips slightly and looked at her: "Your Majesty."

Gu Qingyi didn't speak, turned around and walked towards the inner room of the bedroom.

Not long after, buckets of hot water were brought in and poured into the tub behind the screen.

Qin Shu pursed his lips slightly and looked at her silently.

It wasn't until she looked up that he walked over step by step, with difficult and slow steps, and as he moved, cold sweat began to ooze from his forehead again.

I took out a small porcelain bottle from the red sandalwood shelf, pulled out the cork and poured the liquid inside into the water, and the refreshing fragrance came out and filled the whole bedroom.

In the mist-filled tub, the hot water turned light green at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The water vapor permeates, and the fragrance is refreshing.

Gu Qingyi put down the small bottle in his hand, and looked up at him: "Take off your clothes and go in by yourself."

Qin Shu responded in a low voice: "Yes."

His Majesty's expressionless face at the moment is not easy to provoke, Qin Shu is very upset, and dare not disobey her words in the slightest.

I took off my clothes and stepped into the bathtub, but I didn't expect the pain from the hot water stimulating the wound as I imagined. On the contrary, the original pain and discomfort on my body seemed to disappear in an instant.

Feeling the fragrance permeating the nostrils, the surprised look in Qin Shu's eyes flashed away.

Is it because of the potion His Majesty added to it?
Sitting in the bathtub, Qin Shu gently rubbed his bruised and slightly swollen knee, and remained silent.

Although he knelt for a long time, the carpet in His Majesty's bedroom was much better than the cold and hard floor tiles of the Boundless Palace.

Gu Qingyi looked down at him.

Naturally, he didn't ignore his own movement of rubbing his knees, and unconsciously remembered what Princess Changle said.

Willing to punish...

So Qin Shu is by his side, in fact, it has always been like this... is he always to blame?
like……

If she likes...then this feeling...

...Is it distressing?

Her Majesty frowned.

There were several wounds on Qin Shu's body, on his arms, shoulders, lower abdomen, shoulder blades... everywhere.

Not very deep, but all saw blood.

His Majesty looked very uncomfortable, and couldn't help but want to get angry...

But she is still very self-controlled.

It happened once in the Boundless Palace, and there is absolutely no reason for it to happen again.

Gu Qingyi glanced over him inch by inch, and said lightly, "Was the injury on your body done by that so-called number one expert in Yan Kingdom?"
