Chapter 357 But I Want To
After being busy day and night for a while, Zhou Shuxuan finally got some free time.

After he came back, he didn't meet Miao Li a few times.It's just that I have had dinner with her a few times, I'm afraid it will affect her, as long as she stays in Qingquan Palace well, don't run out if nothing happens.

Her body was already weak, and she didn't want to eat or drink in summer. If she still didn't rest well, she might have to ask the imperial physician to prescribe medicine for her again.After drinking a bowl of bitter medicinal juice, it will make it even more difficult to eat.

Today was finally over earlier, it was still early, and he was not particularly sleepy, so he wanted to visit Qingquan Palace.

Miao Li was about to fall asleep when she suddenly heard a door open outside, followed by the sound of footsteps deliberately lightened.

It's so late and I can't sleep, there is no one else who sneaks over but him, Miao Li opened her eyes wide and waited for him to come in.

When Zhou Shuxuan came in, he also knew that it was late and that she might be asleep, but he just wanted to come and take a look.

He still feels like living a dream until now, and sometimes he still can't believe that they are really getting better.

It turned out to be him when he entered the door, Miao Li raised her head and asked in a low voice: "It's so late, why are you here? Are you done with your work?"

Zhou Shuxuan was a little frightened, and did not answer her question conditioned reflex: "Aren't you asleep yet?"

"Keep your voice down, they're already asleep, and they all have to get up when they know you're here." Miao Li shook the fan in her hand and said, "It's a bit hot, so I can't sleep."

Zhou Shuxuan lowered his voice obediently, and said, "I'll have someone from the Ministry of Internal Affairs bring some ice over tomorrow, so it'll be cooler and I can sleep well."

Miao Li moved a little to the side of the bed, and said casually: "Forget it, it's not too hot, and it's not good to use too much ice."

Zhou Shuxuan saw her move slightly, as if inviting him to sleep here, he suddenly felt the room was getting hot, and he dared not move.After half a day, I sat down by the bed and pretended to take off my shoes.He didn't hear what she said, so he calmed down and continued to act.

He took off his shoes and clothes and lay down, lying next to her, not daring to move.Being so close, Miaoli can naturally feel his restraint, thinking that he will get better soon, but he didn't expect that half a year later, he is still like this, he is cautious about everything about her, as if he is afraid of losing again.

He was cautious, Miao Li looked for something to say, and asked, "You're still wearing your coat, aren't you hot?"

Zhou Shuxuan leaned on the bamboo pillow and shook his head, feeling his palms were sweating, but said, "I'm not hot."

Miao Li could feel the steaming heat on his body and said it was not hot, she half stood up and reached out to touch his belt, trying to help him take off his clothes.

But Zhou Shuxuan pressed her hand violently, trying to endure something, "Don't, I'm afraid I can't help it."

After enduring it for so long, he couldn't stand any provocations.

Although Miao Li has now accepted him again, he is not sure if he can go further.He is already very satisfied with what he is now.

In the past, in order to ease the relationship with her, he tried his best to make her get closer to him.Now the relationship has improved, but he is not allowed to act without authorization. He is afraid of going back to the past, so he dare not now.

Miao Li paused for a moment, then continued to untie his clothes.Leaning over and teasing him softly in his ear: "But I want to."

This matter has to be started by someone first, and only in this way can it be regarded as really getting better.

Zhou Shuxuan's hands and feet were stiff, he forcibly suppressed his eagerness to move, pretended to be serious and said, "I don't want to, unless you kiss me."

Miao Li held back her laughter, and was about to kiss her, but suddenly had a bad idea in her mind.She reached out and leaned under him, holding something much more honest than him.He asked again, "You really don't want to?"

This sentence is more powerful than any medicine, Zhou Shuxuan's blood surged, and he couldn't bear to turn over anymore and got up.

She quickly stripped herself clean, and kissed her on the mouth uncontrollably, "Look at your slow movements, I can just kiss you once."

It's been a long time since I've experienced these things, and only halfway through, Miao Li couldn't bear it any longer, hugged him and screamed for pain.

There was a thin layer of sweat on Zhou Shuxuan's forehead. "Be patient, okay? It won't hurt soon."

After being absent for a long time, she unexpectedly became like before, making him short of breath.

Miao Li gritted her teeth and nodded.

A court lady was sleeping outside in a daze, and when she heard some voice inside, she got up and wanted to come in to see what was wrong.

The moonlight came in from the window, and she saw Miaoli's bed curtain shaking, Miaoli's intermittent voice was wrapped in the creaking of the bed, and she could vaguely hear Zhou Shuxuan's voice.

It's not that she doesn't know anything, she can understand what this is for, she walks lightly and retreats, her face is hot to stay outside.

He woke up Mammy Xi again, asked someone to prepare some water in a low voice, and paid attention to the movement inside.

After waiting for several hours, the sky was turning white, and it didn't seem to stop inside.

Gao Fu, who was guarding outside, also came in. The liar, the emperor, clearly said that he just came in to take a look, but he dozed off for several times and didn't come out.

It was getting late, and he had to ask the emperor to get up and go to court.He lowered his voice and asked the maid, "Is the emperor in there?"

The maid nodded, but stopped him, "Eunuch, let's go in later."

"What's wrong?" Gao Fu didn't understand for a while.

The maid lowered her head, feeling extremely ashamed, "It's just...just... Anyway, you can go in after a while, it should be over soon." After all, it was almost the whole night.

The emperor probably has been vegetarian for too long, so he can't stop it for a while.

Gao Fu understood now, stood outside the door and waited with the maid, and after waiting for a while, he could still hear occasional voices from inside.It is true that we cannot wait any longer. If we wait any longer, we will not be able to catch up with the court.

Gao Fu knocked on the door, raised his voice slightly, and shouted inside, "Your Majesty, it's time to go up."

There was no response from inside, and Gao Fu was about to shout again when he heard Zhou Shuxuan's voice, "Bring some water in."

Zhou Shuxuan helped her pack up before getting dressed and going out. Miao Li didn't want to move now, and felt that all her strength had been squeezed out by him. She just wanted to sleep while hugging the quilt, and she couldn't control where he was going.

Zhou Shuxuan got dressed and kissed her on the face before walking out refreshed.I didn't sleep all night, and I didn't see any fatigue at all.

But Miao Li couldn't compare to him, she didn't have such a good body, and when she woke up, she felt that she was falling apart.If it wasn't for the quilt, others would definitely be able to see her spread out on the bed.

I used to dress and get up by myself, but now I don't even have the strength to dress.If it wasn't for her stomach growling, she really didn't want to get up.

Mammy Xi scolded people while helping her dress, "The emperor is too insignificant, he doesn't know how to stop. He doesn't care about himself or his mother. Looking at this body, I don't know when it will get rid of it. It's too ugly."

Although Miao Li couldn't see it, she could guess that it should be covered in bruises, and it looked a little scary, which is why Mammy Xi scolded people like this.

Miao Li comforted weakly: "It's okay, it will be fine in a few days, apply some medicine for promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, and it will be fine soon."

Grandma Xi still feels distressed when she looks at her, they all take good care of them, they are reluctant to bump into each other, this is what happened when the emperor came. "The emperor is not young anymore, why are you acting like a brat?"

Miao Li also wanted to ask this question, because Zhou Shuxuan last night made her unable to resist.In the middle of the night, she was regretting why she teased him.

Zhou Shuxuan came over after the next court, thinking about Miaoli in his heart, wondering if she woke up.I should rest for a while, I was really exhausted yesterday.

When I entered the door, I heard Madam Xi and Miao Li talking, and asked with a smile, "What are you talking about?"

He is in a very good mood today, smiling at everyone.

He smiled at each other, but Madam Xi didn't have such a good temper towards him, she turned her head and said, "I'm saying that the emperor is unrestrained, has no importance, and doesn't take care of the empress's body at all, and only cares about himself."

Being scolded early in the morning, Miao Li leaned on the bed and gloated.

Zhou Shuxuan really had no way to refute this matter. If he was scolded, he could only be scolded. He touched his nose and said, "I will pay attention to it in the future."

Mother Xi instructed again: "Then the emperor must pay attention. Before the empress recovers, the emperor should bear with it for a while."

Mammy Xi watched him grow up, so it's not too much to teach him a few words for his convenience.

Zhou Shuxuan admitted his mistake again with a correct attitude, "I know."

Mammy Xi was relieved seeing him look like this, and retreated after changing the breakfast, not disturbing them.

Seeing Mammy Xi go out, Zhou Shuxuan sat down beside her, took a bowl of porridge, put a spoonful of it near her mouth, and asked, "Does it still hurt?"

Miaoli nodded, there was no place where it didn't hurt, and she didn't hide from him.

Zhou Shuxuan felt a little regretful, and asked, "Why didn't you tell me last night?"

Miao Li glared at him, gritted her teeth and said, "If you could hear a word last night, you won't be said by the nanny now. I've said it so many times, and you'll only coax me."

Well, he admitted that.

Zhou Shuxuan was a little embarrassed, and smiled very flatteringly, "I will really pay attention in the future, and I won't do that again."

After hearing what he said, Miao Li couldn't help but think about longer-term things.She touched her stomach with her hand. The imperial doctor said before that it would be very difficult for her to conceive, but it was not that she had no chance.

I have planned to spend my whole life with him, and it is impossible to travel the mountains and rivers.One of her two wishes must be fulfilled. She still wants a child very much.If you think about it more, you will definitely have a chance.

It's a pity when I think of the past, but I didn't keep any of them.She has always dreamed of having a child of her own, and now she has a chance—she must make her wish come true.
