Emperor's Stand-in: My physique improves a little bit every day
Chapter 80 The Third Soul-Picking Slave
"Um……"
When the muffled hum came from the room again, Lu Changjing felt something was wrong, so he opened the door and walked in: "Get dressed, are you okay?"
"I...I'm fine."
Cai Xiuer stood up quickly. She had already put on her clothes, but she hurt her wound while drinking ginseng soup, so she couldn't help but hum.
Seeing her weak look, Lu Changjing came to her side and picked up the bowl on the table: "Don't force it, I'll feed you."
Before Cai Xiuer could refuse, she took a spoonful of ginseng soup and blocked the words she wanted to say.
"Uh-huh……"
Cai Xiuer muttered and didn't know what she was moaning about, but she still drank the ginseng soup obediently and accepted Lu Changjing's feeding honestly.
Seeing her cute and charming appearance, Lu Changjing almost gave her a mouthful of imported ginseng soup, but then he thought that Cai Xiuer was not his concubine, and this would be a bit excessive, so he forcibly stopped the thought.
Lu Changjing carefully fed a bowl of ginseng soup into Cai Xiuer's mouth. Soon she felt warm all over her body, and the injuries in her body began to recover quickly.
After finishing a bowl of thousand-year-old ginseng soup, I felt much better again.
Seeing that she was much more energetic, Lu Changjing put down the bowl, picked up the handkerchief next to him, and wiped her red cherry mouth.
Being taken care of by Lu Changjing like this, Cai Xiuer couldn't help but be stunned, and she didn't dare to move. Her charming little face turned red again, as if it had been smeared with a layer of rouge, which made Lu Changjing almost take it in again.
Although there was no kiss, she still couldn't help but touch her. Cai Xiuer didn't resist, but her face turned even redder.
After drinking the ginseng soup, Lu Changjing helped her sleep: "Rest for a while, wait until she is almost healed, and then leave here."
"But...but what about the affairs in the palace?" Cai Xiuer couldn't help but ask.
Lu Changjing knew that what she was talking about was what he was responsible for, that is, what the show girl she pretended to do needed to do.
He smiled slightly and said: "You have forgotten who I am, and I can't handle such a small matter."
"Yeah." Cai Xiuer then realized that Lu Changjing was the current emperor, and this was just a piece of cake for him.
Seeing Cai Xiu'er lying on the bed, Lu Changjing said, "What's going on this time? Are you greedy for merit and rash?"
"I...I just think it should be enough." Cai Xiuer explained in a low voice.
Lu Changjing exposed her: "It shouldn't be enough, but you are still too impatient. You are only in your twenties and have more than two hundred years to live. You have plenty of time, so why are you so anxious."
"I thought that the Yellow Sand Dragon King was still dominating the Yellow Sand River, so I wanted to get rid of it as soon as possible." Cai Xiuer bit her lips.
"The Yellow Sand Jiao King has been ravaging the Huangsha River for hundreds of years, but the imperial court has been doing nothing to stop him. How can you catch up in one day?" Lu Changjing sighed and said: "Besides, it's not just you who want to kill him early, the imperial court also wants to kill him early. That’s the case with me, so there’s no need to put too much pressure on me.”
"Maybe I will soon be able to break through the shackles and step into the realm of gods and demons. Then I can avenge you and eliminate this hidden danger for the court."
Cai Xiuer felt a lot more relaxed: "Yes, I understand."
"Then practice and improve steadily, don't be too anxious, otherwise not only will you not be able to get revenge, but you may also die before you leave the army." Lu Changjing taught.
Immediately he took out a few bottles of elixirs and some spiritual stones from the Blue Sky Divine Ring and placed them next to Cai Xiuer: "If you lack resources and treasures during practice, then come to me. You are my person and the genius I secretly cultivated. If you need I am naturally responsible for everything.”
Without developing the business of glass products and gunpowder, Lu Changjing would naturally not be able to take care of Cai Xiuer, or even himself.
Nowadays, as the glass business and gunpowder business are getting better and better, Lu Changjing can also spare some resources and treasures for Cai Xiuer to use for practice.
When the business grows further, we may be able to help the concubines improve as soon as possible.
However, considering that the backgrounds of most of the concubines are quite astonishing, and they basically do not lack resources and treasures, it seems that Cai Xiuer is worse off at the moment.
Cai Xiuer wanted to refuse, but was stopped by Lu Changjing: "If you feel guilty, practice well. King Huangsha Jiao is not your business alone, it is mainly the court and my business."
After comforting Cai Xiu'er, Lu Changjing looked at her back: "Xiu'er, what's the matter with the whip marks on your body?"
"This..." Cai Xiuer hesitated, not knowing what to say.
Lu Changjing had already guessed what he said: "It must have been the beating by the female officials in the palace. Some female officials like to bully other palace maids and show girls, especially show girls, who are most likely to be jealous of those female officials."
"I can handle this matter without bothering Your Majesty." Cai Xiuer said softly.
Lu Changjing said helplessly: "If you could handle it well, you wouldn't have so many whip marks. You are still a master after all. Why are you so tied up? You don't need to worry about this matter. Just leave it to me."
The status of the show lady that Cai Xiuer pretended to be was not high, so she was better than ordinary palace maids, and the person who could manage them would not be a powerful female official.
However, Cai Xiuer never resisted, obviously because she was worried that if she did so, she would be found to be abnormal, which would make her unable to stay any longer, or risk her death.
So it's better to do it yourself. It happens that the third soul-picking hook has been completed, and you can take down another soul-picking slave.
This time, Lu Changjing targeted the head of the female officials in the harem, the head eunuch Zhao Yali.
Her cultivation has reached the level of a fifth-level master. She is over a hundred years old this year. It is said that she had a relationship with the previous emperor and almost became a concubine in the harem.
However, she refused for some reason and became a female official in the palace. Finally, she became the head of the palace maids, the head eunuch, responsible for managing the maids in the entire harem.
As long as Zhao Yali can be captured, it means that the Jinwu Guards, eunuchs and palace maids in the Qianqing Palace have become his people. If there is any disturbance in the future, Lu Changjing will be able to get the news in the first time.
This time, Cao Xiuyuan took action as usual, and asked Zhao Yali to come over on the grounds that a palace maid made a mistake and broke the valuables in the imperial study.
After receiving the news, Zhao Yali hurriedly came from her residence and knelt down in front of Lu Changjing to apologize.
Looking at Zhao Yali kneeling in front of him, Lu Changjing was stunned. He thought that an old witch who was over 100 years old, almost 200 years old, would have become very old even if she had cultivated successfully. However, he did not expect that this Zhao Mama not only did not look old, but looked particularly young.
If he said that she was only 30 years old, perhaps many people would believe it.
