Emperor, I Am Brutal

The two words "husband and wife" had always been slowly being protected by Qin Shuo, but Hu Xiao had never felt anything about it.

When she thought about how she had always caused trouble in the past and how Qin Shuo had taken care of her, she seemed to have become more of a husband and wife.

"Haha, it is your subordinate's fault. However, why are we repairing in this Aquatic Manor and not at a relay station?"

Seeing that, Hu Xiao did not care anymore about Qin Shuo and changed the topic.

In the past, they would always sit in the government office when they entered the city. If they were to leave the city, it would be at a relay station. How come now, even the Manor has been settled down?

Heh, this Aquatic Manor is also my imperial family's villa. It has been a bit late today, and according to the next relay station, it is quite far. If we don't stay here and continue on our journey, I'm sure that we will be sleeping in the forest tonight.

After Hu Xiao heard this, he did not speak anymore. She did not know what was going on, so speaking any further now was naturally not a good choice.

"Oh, your subordinate is overthinking it."

Seeing Hu Xiao being so easygoing today, Qin Shuo was slightly startled, but quickly calmed down. Maybe in the past few days, Hu Xiao had gotten tired of it and lost her mind, so it was not a problem.

The party soon arrived at the Manor, one of His Majesty's summer resorts, worthy of its name.

It was still extremely hot outside, but after they entered the Manor, they felt much more comfortable.

"Greetings, Your Majesty. Long live and long live our Emperor.

The manager of the Aquatic Manor had long received the news and was waiting here. At this moment, he saw Qin Shuo walking over and hurriedly said.

"Mm, rise. You've worked hard here at the Guardian Villa."

Qin Shuo felt more respect for this manager, so he thought of it later.

"Your servant did not work hard. Your servant had already prepared some delicious food. Your Majesty, the various ladies and gentlemen, I would like to request that you step into the hall."

Today's journey might not be as arduous as before, but after walking for a long time, everyone had already become extremely hungry. When they heard that dishes were prepared in the hall, they immediately felt extremely hungry.

Seeing that, Qin Shuo smiled, then stepped inside.

Hu Xiao had slept the whole way, so she was not really hungry now. However, to prevent herself from thinking about that night at the inn, where she had to roast some corn due to hunger. She burned the backyard, and Hu Xiao still went to eat some.

After she finished eating her fill, Hu Xiao slowly walked around the Villa. Needless to say, this Elephant Water Villa was extremely big, and after asking the palace maid that was on duty and finding out that there was a hot spring at the back of the mountain, Hu Xiao could not help but laugh even more happily, and turned around to walk in Soong Xuan's direction.

"Hmm? Why is the Empress here? "

To address the man dressed in the uniform of a guard as "Empress," would indeed make it difficult for Soong Xuan, but at this time, the people surrounding Soong Xuan had already been tidied up by Soong Xuan, so they didn't mind revealing Hu Xiao's identity.

"I was wandering around this mansion just now and was informed that there was a hot spring at the summit of the back mountain. We were tired from our journey recently, I wonder if Miss Soong would like to go with us to the hot spring?"

Hu Xiao's purpose for coming was self-evident, and wanted Soong Xuan to go to some hot spring with him.

"Empress? Have you forgotten about what happened at the relay station that day? "

Soong Xuan was startled upon hearing this. The last time she went out, he had burnt the rear courtyard of the inn in the end. The danger level of traveling with Hu Xiao was too high, so Soong Xuan felt that her safety could not be guaranteed.

"Of course I remember. However, it's rare to see this hot spring. It would be a pity if I didn't go. Is young miss really not interested?" "If that's the case, I'll head there by myself."

Seeing that, Hu Xiao pretended to say, she did not believe that Soong Xuan was afraid of these small troubles, and as expected, just as Hu Xiao was about to turn and leave, she heard Soong Xuan's words and laughed.

"Your Majesty, the Empress and Miss Soong went to the back of the mountain together. Your goal here is the hot spring you dug there."

Seeing Hu Xiao and Soong Xuan heading towards the back of the mountain, Wei Shi anxiously reported to him.

"Hmm? Hot springs? "I understand."

The back of the mountain was still okay, even if the two of them were fighting, it would not be able to last long, so Qin Shuo heaved a sigh of relief.

Hu Xiao and Soong Xuan had long reached the side of the hot spring.

"It's actually a natural hot spring. Awesome."

Seeing that, Hu Xiao was satisfied, there were usually no one who came to the back mountain, and on the way here, they did not notice anything strange, so she relaxed, took off all her clothes, and entered the hot spring.

"Alright, Soong Xuan, don't delay any longer, this hot spring is a good item, come and try it out."

Seeing Soong Xuan's hesitant look, Hu Xiao smiled and said to Soong Xuan who was still standing on the shore.

Smoke curled up, and Hu Xiao had already washed everything off her face with the water from the hot spring.

With the hot spring as a contrast, she had long known that Hu Xiao was beautiful, but right now, she was completely shocked by Soong Xuan's beauty. In the past few days, she had lost sight of Hu Xiao who was disguised as a man, and it seemed as if Hu Xiao had made some changes to her appearance. She looked extremely normal, but right now, she had recovered her previous appearance, which was simply beautiful to the extreme.

"Why are you still looking at me? Come down quickly, or there'll be people coming later. "

But after waiting for a long time and not seeing Soong Xuan enter the water, Hu Xiao felt it was strange. Normally, Soong Xuan should not have been afraid of the water, otherwise, he would not have followed him here.

"Empress, it is no wonder that you are the most noble in the harem. Your looks are all top class."

Soong Xuan saw that Hu Xiao was impatient while waiting in the water, and could not help but laugh as she spoke.

Hm? What did Soong Xuan mean by that, praising herself for nothing? Was he lost in her beauty? But Soong Xuan was just a woman, how could this be? Was it flattery?

Hu Xiao immediately threw the thought out of her mind. Soong Xuan was not that kind of person, but she could not understand, what did Soong Xuan mean by this? It was not as if she had never seen her own female attire before, how come she was stunned now?

But looking at Soong Xuan's appearance, Hu Xiao had a plan in her mind. She held in a breath and instantly swam to Soong Xuan's side, pulling him into the water.

"Ah …" Help... "Save me …"

A moment of carelessness allowed Hu Xiao to pull the water away, causing her to instantly suck in a lot of water, but she was unable to see Hu Xiao coming to her rescue even after flopping in the water for a long time. Only then did she slowly calm down, and saw Hu Xiao not far from her, calmly and unperturbedly watching her struggle.

"Hmm? But there's a woman calling for help? "

, who was on patrol, seemed to have heard Soong Xuan's cry for help and rushed over to the back of the mountain.
