Emperor's Stand-in: My physique improves a little bit every day

"Ah, sister Ruolan is here, I have to hide quickly."

Hearing the song, Xiao Yaoxin was so frightened that he crawled out of Lu Changjing's arms and wandered around the secret room like a headless fly.

Seeing Xiao Yao being at a loss and not knowing where to hide, Lu Changjing smiled slightly and told her to hide in the secret room, then closed the stone door and walked to the front of the imperial study.

On the way, I tidied up and used elixirs to cover up the smell on my body before announcing that Zhou Ruolan had come in.

"I have met your Majesty."

Walking into the imperial study, Zhou Ruolan bowed curtly, holding a food box in his hand: "I have prepared another Millennium Ginseng Soup for Your Majesty to replenish your health."

"My beloved, please get up. I have just eaten. Just put the ginseng soup here. I will enjoy it in the evening."

There are so many imported medicinal materials to be consumed later. How dare Lu Changjing drink Millennium Ginseng Decoction? This will easily lead to indigestion and waste a lot of medicinal power.

Zhou Ruolan smiled and put the ginseng soup on the dragon table: "Okay, your Majesty, as long as you don't dislike it."

When he lowered his head to put down the ginseng soup, Zhou Ruolan's delicate nose twitched slightly, and he faintly smelled a familiar smell.

Although it has been covered up with other elixirs, for Zhou Ruolan, who sells various medicinal materials at home, this confusion can still be clearly distinguished.

How could His Majesty have the smell of Sister Yaoxin on his body, and it was quite strong.

It is obvious that you can get such a smell only after getting close to him, or you have been together for a long time. However, a few days ago, she came to deliver the thousand-year ginseng soup, and His Majesty did not have such a smell.

So it shouldn't be about being together for a long time, but it's a taste that only comes after getting close.

But isn’t Your Majesty practicing Hidden Yang Technique? How dare you be so close to Sister Yaoxin?

Besides, I haven't heard that Sister Yaoxin came to the imperial study room of Qianqing Palace. What on earth is going on.

Although he was confused, Zhou Ruolan didn't show it. After caring about Lu Changjing for a while, he left the imperial study room.

Lu Changjing didn't know that Zhou Ruolan had also discovered something unusual, and took the thousand-year-old ginseng soup back to the secret room of seclusion, and continued to enjoy the imported medicinal materials with Xiao Yaoxin.

"I was scared to death. I thought I was going to be discovered by Sister Ruolan."

Even though he was held in his arms, Xiao Yaoxin was still a little frightened.

Lu Changjing remembered one thing, that is, Xiao Yaoxin and Zhou Ruolan had a very good relationship, just like the relationship between Yaowang Valley and Shenzhuang.

Shenzhuang was the force behind Zhou Ruolan. It was the largest merchant of medicinal materials in the Daning Dynasty. It was especially rich in various kinds of ginseng, so many medicinal materials in Yaowang Valley were purchased from Shenzhuang.

The relationship between the two major forces is good, and even Zhou Ruolan and Xiao Yaoxin, who both entered the palace and became concubines, also have a good relationship. They live in the same palace and are not far apart.

No wonder there are so many thousand-year-old ginseng soups in Yifei. The family produces ginseng, so naturally there are a lot of good ginseng.

In the future, I want to get closer to Concubine Yi and see if I can buy some more good ginseng for cultivation improvement.

This is one of the best auxiliary treasures when practicing. Whether it is in the body refining stage or the master stage, or even in the higher realm of gods and demons, it has a huge effect, especially the old mountain ginseng. .

He put his hand on Concubine Jin's belly and rubbed it to comfort her before continuing to enjoy the imported medicinal materials.

What the two of them didn't know was that after ostensibly leaving the Qianqing Palace, Zhou Ruolan sneaked back alone and hid in a place that was necessary to return to the Xianfu Palace from the Qianqing Palace. She and Xiao Yaoxin lived there. Xianfu Palace.

At the same time, people asked the palace maids and eunuchs, and they all said that they had not seen Concubine Jin coming to the imperial study of the Qing Palace. If this was the case, it would be even more suspicious.

As a medicinal herb family, Zhou Ruolan naturally has no shortage of various cultivation resources. In addition, his own talents are quite good, and he is one of the best in a thousand.

Now in his twenties, he has reached the level of a third-level master. It won't be long before he can break through to the level of a fourth-level master.

This kind of training progress is not much worse than Ning Zhongyu, but considering that the two people practice different martial arts and combat skills, and Ning Zhongyu is a fellow practitioner of the three, it is said that Ning Zhongyu is better.

After waiting for more than an hour, just when Zhou Ruolan thought that he had made a mistake, he saw a disguised figure sneaking towards the imperial study room.

He specifically chooses places where there are no people around, as if he is afraid of being seen.

Even though he was disguised, to Zhou Ruolan, who was quite familiar with Xiao Yaoxin, this disguise was nothing at all.

"You Xiao Yaoxin actually secretly met with His Majesty."

As soon as she passed near Zhou Ruolan, Xiao Yaoxin was grabbed by her and taken to a nearby corner.

"ah……"

This frightened Xiao Yaoxin into exclaiming and shaking her head hastily: "I...I didn't. Sister Ruolan, why are you here?"

"What are you talking about?" Zhou Ruolan didn't say anything nonsense: "Just now when I was delivering the Millennium Ginseng Soup, I smelled your scent on Your Majesty. Although Your Majesty has covered it up, we sisters are often together, and I still smell it. Found it.”

"Now you also smell like His Majesty. The two of you must have been together just now and were quite close."

"This..." Xiao Yaoxin was not good at lying in the first place, and Zhou Ruolan got such conclusive evidence. He was at a loss for a moment: "I...I can't say it, otherwise they will definitely make trouble for me."

"They?" Zhou Ruolan frowned slightly: "So not only you are having a secret meeting with His Majesty, but there are also other people who are having a secret meeting with His Majesty, and they are hiding it from us, enjoying His Majesty's favor alone. Has His Majesty broken his will?"

Xiao Yaoxin was dumbfounded again. She didn't expect Zhou Ruolan to guess most of the truth based on her words. She shook her head and said: "No, His Majesty has not broken his will. I... I just share the food with His Majesty, just like my sister shared the thousand-year-old ginseng soup with His Majesty. At most, I am a little closer."

"Do you need to sneak into the imperial study just to share food?" Zhou Ruolan directly exposed Xiao Yaoxin: "Sister Yaoxin, although we are not sisters, we are as close as sisters. Even the other concubines know about this matter. Do you still want to keep it a secret from your sister?"

Seeing that Zhou Ruolan was a little sad, Xiao Yaoxin, who had a very good relationship with her, couldn't stand it anymore and hurried to comfort her.

At the same time, she thought that Tan Qingyun and Lin Yixin already knew about this matter, so it didn't seem to matter if there was another sister Ruolan. Besides, she had already been discovered, so what else could she do? There was nothing she could do.

Even if she didn't tell the truth, if sister Ruolan continued to follow her, she would find the existence of the skylight hole, and she would be exposed at that time. It would be the same whether she told it or not.
