Although Shen Hexi forbids others to wake him up, but Bai Qing saw that it was getting dark, she still stood outside the door and whispered, "My lord, are you up yet? It's good if you continue to sleep after dinner." She has calmed down The old Bai Qing didn't dare to call Shen Hexi by her baby name in this palace. After all, this is in the palace, no more than when she was in the general's mansion. Shen Hexi's nickname had a bad influence on both of them.

There was a rustling sound of dressing from the inner hall, Bai Qing reckoned that Li Baihan must have woken up, and according to Shen Hexi's temperament, he would never wake up just once.

Sure enough, after a while, Li Bohan was only wearing a white shirt, and came out with sleepy eyes, "Aunt Qing, let someone bring in a bucket of water. Xier and I take a bath first, we haven't soaked well outside these days." a hot bath."

"Fourth Prince, there is a bathing pool on the left side of the inner hall. There are many hot springs on the mountain next to Dunliang City. In the past, when this was the General's Mansion, hot spring water was used for bathing. There is never a shortage of hot water throughout the year. Yes, I heard that taking a bath in hot spring water often has the effect of strengthening the body." Bai Qing has been here for a few months, but she is very familiar with this palace, and when she saw Li Baihan wanted to take a bath, she mentioned it to him.

Li Baihan, who had never left Yong'an City, was a little curious when Bai Qing said that there was hot spring water here.

Bai Qing walked into the inner room, glanced at Shen Hexi who was sleeping on the bed in a big character shape, gently opened a small door hidden behind the screen, and whispered, "This bath was renovated when the palace was built. It is made of white marble. I saw this bath when I first moved here, but I didn’t mention it to Wan Yue.”

She was afraid that Li Baihan and Shen Hexi would dislike Wan Yue for using the bathroom, so she explained it.

The door of the bathroom is connected with the surrounding doors and windows, and there is a screen in front of it. If you don't know it, you may not be able to find this bathroom.

Li Bohan followed Bai Qing into the bathroom, and saw that the bathroom was not small. The floor in the bathroom was all carved marble floor. It is estimated that walking will not hurt your feet.

In the middle of the bathroom is a bathing pool made of white marble. The pool is not deep and can almost reach his waist. A four-finger-high fence is carved with white marble around it. The carvings of birds and animals are lifelike. There is also a jade bed in the pool. It's for taking a bath.

As soon as you enter the door, on the left are shelves for changing clothes, all of which are elegant lacquerware, and the black cabinets are painted with bright red edges.On the right hand side is a soft couch, covered with blue Su brocade, embroidered with beautiful dark patterns.Next to the soft couch are two small tea tables, also made of lacquerware, presumably for resting.

It seems that his father spent all his money to build the palace for his little Xi'er, and the few pieces of lacquerware in the bathroom are worth a lot.There are still a small number of households in Aoki who can use lacquerware, mainly because there are too few lacquer trees in Aoki, and there is very little lacquer that can be harvested every year.

Li Baihan, who was a little sad in his heart, thought, fortunately he knew that Shen Hexi was indeed Shen Yunping's biological son, otherwise he would have doubted that Shen Hexi was his father's illegitimate son if Li Jiayou had treated him like this.

"Aunt Qing, where does the hot spring water come from?" Li Bohan asked curiously.

"From here." Bai Qing walked to the opposite side of the bathing pool, lightly placed a piece of white marble protrusion next to the bathing pool with her hand, and made a rattling sound. Four faucets made of pure gold were exposed at the four corners of the bathing pool. After a while, the dragon began to spit hot spring water from the dragon's mouth.

Li Baihan stepped forward to test the temperature of the water, it was quite hot, and it must be very comfortable to take a bath.

"Aunt Qing, pass the meal in an hour." Li Baihan liked this bathroom very much, and couldn't wait to take a good bath.

"Okay, I'll let someone bring the washing things."

When Bai Qing came out of the inner hall, she asked Yu Rong to bring in the clothes they were wearing and all the utensils for bathing.Yu Rong knew Li Baihan's identity, and she had heard about it when she was in Yong'an City, about the prince's son-in-law being an idiot.

But meeting Li Bohan here, Yu Rong was very puzzled, could it be that the rumors in Yong'an City were false? Judging by the behavior of the fourth prince, he does not look like a fool, he is no different from a normal man, even more so than a normal man. The descendants of those aristocratic families she had met were even better, but she was a little bit at a loss as to how to do it.

Yu Rong was only 14 years old, the age when her love affair began. She walked into the inner hall with a change of clothes, and kept her head slightly lowered, not daring to look at Li Baihan.

Because Li Bohan only wore a middle coat to take a bath, the white inner garment was already thin, and it couldn't block Li Baihan's strong body at all.

Yu Rong put down her things and hurried out of the inner hall, her cheeks were slightly red, her heart was beating wildly.A little shy, Yu Rong patted her cheek and whispered, "In the future, you must stay away from the fourth prince. If something goes wrong, she will not be able to serve in the Jinlan Palace in the future."

Yu Rong, who is very self-aware, knows very well in her heart that if she wants to marry the prince in her capacity, it is basically a dream. She might as well spend a few years in the palace, and if she is lucky enough to marry a guard in the future, her life will be considered complete.

The alluring Li Bohan didn't know his good figure, so he even scared the serving maid. He went back to the bed and dug Shen Hexi out from under the quilt who slept like piglets.

At the end of summer, Dunliang City was still a bit hot, Shen Hexi was sweating all over from sleep, Li Baihan hugged him, sniffed his bun, um, it almost stinks.They stayed in the mountains several times in the past few days, and they didn't take a good bath at all, let alone wash their hair with soap locust.

Shen Hexi in his sleep was woken up by Li Bohan covering him with a hot handkerchief, "Hey, where is this?" Shen Hexi just woke up lying on the soft couch with a dazed expression on his face.

"Get up, I'll take you to take a bath, you've sweated all over, it stinks to death." Li Bohan stripped off Shen Hexi's aqua blue pajamas in disgust, picked him up and walked into the bathroom.

It was already time for a cup of tea, and the hot spring water in the bath had just reached the position of the jade bed. Li Baihan felt that it was so deep that he checked it, and turned off the water.

"Ah, it's so hot." Shen Hexi, who was as white as a chicken, stood on the jade bed and called out as he touched the hot spring water with his chubby hands.

"Is it hot? I feel fine." Li Bohan also took off his shirt while speaking, and stood in the bathtub, looking very refreshed. "The temperature is just right, Xiao Xi'er come down and try."

Facing the drooling body, Shen Hexi twisted a bit, opened his hands, and said in his soft childlike voice, "Brother Han, hug me down."

Li Baihan laughed and said, "You little fat man, you have a lot of things to do." Shen Hexi, who had taken off his clothes, was chubby all over. He looked down at his round belly and said shamelessly, "I'm still young, now I'm fat How nice it is"

"Yes, fatter looks better." Li Bohan stood beside Shen Hexi, holding his bucket waist with one hand, and rubbing soap locust oil on his hair with the other.This soap locust oil was an item in the palace. Li Jiayou was afraid that Shen and Xi would suffer in Dunliang City, so he even bought the things he usually used to wash his hair and face.

Shen Hexi's hair was very soft, and after washing it for a while, a head of foam came out. Li Baihan smelled it, and it smelled like mint.

"Close your eyes, don't get them in your eyes."

"Uh, I'll wipe Brother Han's back later, okay?" Shen Hexi obediently closed his eyes and let Li Baihan wash his hair for him.

"What can you do with the strength in your hand?"

"Don't think I'm small, I have strength in my hands." Said Shen Hexi raised his fat claws to make a fist.

The two were talking unnutritious words in the bathroom, and Bai Qing in the side hall had already ordered people to start serving dinner.The food was almost ready, and I saw Li Baihan walking over from the inner hall holding Shen Hexi, who was blushing.

Seeing Shen Hexi coming out in good spirits, Bai Qing thought to herself that the hot spring water is really good, the prince who was a little sleepy during the day, just soaked in the hot spring for a while and then recovered.

As soon as Shen Hexi entered the side hall, the maids and servants who were waiting on the side knelt down to salute him. Shen Hexi didn't want to break the rules when he first arrived, so he accepted it with peace of mind.

The two sat down, and Bai Qing helped them prepare vegetables beside them.

"Aunt Qing, why are there only two vegetables, all of which are meat?" In front of Shen Hexi, there were sixteen dishes, fourteen of which were meat, and only two vegetables.Although he loves to eat meat, there is no way to eat it that way. Whole sheep feast, whole cow feast, or whole pig feast?All together, no one can bear it.

"My lord, it's because the servants are not fully prepared. We first came here, and although we have learned from other families to open an ice cellar to store vegetables, the steward of the ice cellar was brought by us from Yong'an City. He is not familiar with the climate here, and the vegetables in the ice cellar are broken. For the most part, in the whole house now, only you can see some vegetables, and the servants and guards only eat meat every day." Bai Qing explained.

Hearing what Bai Qing said, Shen Hexi suddenly felt dizzy. How could this person survive without eating vegetables? It won't take long for his body to stop boasting.

"Why don't you ask the local officials for some?" Li Bohan suggested.

"Brother Han, isn't it a joke to ask the local officials for green vegetables as soon as my prince came to the fiefdom?" Although Shen Hexi has never been an official before, he still understands some truths.He is young, so it can be said that he can't hold the audience at all. Now that the think tank his father gave him has not arrived, he wants to find someone to go out with the local officials, but there is no one to negotiate, let alone ask them for food.

"Get some money from the warehouse, and we'll go to the market to buy some ourselves, so that the whole house can see a vegetarian dish for every meal." Shen Hexi ordered.

"My lord, there are very few green vegetables sold in the city. It's only the end of summer, and there are no green vegetables sold in autumn and winter. Even if we have money, we probably won't be able to buy enough green vegetables to feed the whole house." Bai Qing looked sad, There is not enough green vegetables in this mansion, and there is another big reason, that is, when Wan Yue was here, he had to have ten green vegetables for each meal of sixteen dishes, and he could consume a lot of vegetables in a day alone. As long as there are not many green vegetables produced, with such a wasteful method, no matter how much vegetables the palace keeps, it won't be able to survive the winter.

Vegetables are the cheapest thing in Yong'an City, even cheaper than white wheat, a copper can buy a big basket.But such cheap vegetables have become high-end goods in Dunliang City.

Shen Hexi put down his chopsticks, his big round eyes rolled around, and he didn't know what he was thinking in silence.The corner of Li Bohan's lips curled up slightly, he knew that his little Xi'er was thinking of something again.He always has so many outlandish ideas.
