Nine thousand years old [rebirth]

There are no secrets in the deep palace. The news that Xue Shu was reprimanded by Emperor Longfeng and dismissed from his positions as Xichang and Yumajian quickly spread.

Xue Shu went back to Xichang's residence and changed his clothes, and when he came out, he noticed the secretive scrutiny of the Xichang guards.Those who worked under his command before had a worried look on their faces; while those who had never followed him showed some secret gloating.

He glanced over, and there were not many waves in his eyes.

This is the case in this deep palace. Thousands of court ladies and eunuchs serve the few masters. The lower the status, the more they like to follow the red top and white, and step on the low when they are high.

It was as if he himself had become the master.

When he first entered the palace, he didn't have His Royal Highness to escort him, nor did he have rich money to manage his relationship. Cold eyes and reprimands were light. Potluck.

Xichang was above him, and there was a supervisor and Qianhu in charge. Xichang was weak before, and he was favored by Emperor Longfeng.Now that I heard that he offended Emperor Longfeng, I'm afraid I won't be able to sit still.

It's a pity that these people's wishful thinking was all wrong. Since he dared to offend Emperor Longfeng, he was naturally sure to regain his trust.

Thinking of the upcoming winter hunt, Xue Shu showed a little contempt in his eyes, and went to Ciqing Palace without hesitation.

It was evening when Xue Shu went to Ciqing Palace.

Zheng Duobao also heard about what happened in Qianqing Palace at noon, and just after he and Yin Chengyu finished reporting, he came outside to inform Xue Shu to see him.

"Let him in." Yin Chengyu said.

Zheng Duobao said "Hey" and went outside to call someone.When he saw Xue Shu, he comforted him with words: "But you have been reprimanded, don't take it to heart. Didn't you just want to stay in Ciqing Palace to serve you before? Now it is considered to be your wish."

Xue Shu glanced at him, responded casually, and strode into the room.

Yin Chengyu changed into a homely navy blue quilted robe with a black fringe around the neckline. He sat at the table and made tea slowly, his gestures were naturally extravagant.

Seeing Xue Shu come in, he waved away the waiters in the room, then raised his eyes and looked over: "Zheng Duobao has already told Gu Gu about the Qianqing Palace."

Xue Shu lowered his eyes: "I did it on purpose."

The speed of admitting mistakes is fast, but there is no sign of feeling that he is wrong in his expression.

"Gu guessed that you did it on purpose." Yin Chengyu was not angry, but laughed: "Since I want to serve in Ciqing Palace so much, I will stay in the future. Zheng Duobao is getting old and his legs are not good, so Gu can't bear it." Call him, you are right on top when you come."

He propped his chin lazily, glanced at Xue Shu, and pointed to his leg: "Come here first and beat Gu's leg."

Xue Shu stepped forward with his eyes downcast, knelt down on one knee, and controlled his strength to beat his leg.

Seeing his obedient appearance, Yin Chengyu squinted his eyes happily, then raised his hand to rub his earlobe: "You are very obedient these days."

Thinking about it carefully, after the earthquake, Xue Shu never made him angry once.

Xue Shu paused, and then continued as if nothing had happened, but his voice was a little heavy: "I am obedient, and His Highness will love me more."

If it were placed in the situation of the previous life, he would definitely not be able to say such a thing.

Regardless of the situation between him and Yin Chengyu, he has always put himself in the lowest place.It's just that at that time he felt inferior to his status as an eunuch, and felt that Yin Chengyu was forced by the situation to bear the humiliation and act with him.Every time I think about it, I feel angry, and it is even more impossible to show weakness easily.I can only do my best to force him to say something nice to coax him.

But the result always backfired.

It wasn't until he woke up from the dream that he realized that he had made a big mistake.

For such a proud person, persecution will only push them further.He needs to expose his weakness and lure himself closer little by little.

Xue Shu hid the darkness in his eyes, and by rubbing and kneading, his fingertips brushed the sensitive spots on his legs as if nothing.

Just as Yin Chengyu knew him, he was also familiar with every part of Yin Chengyu.

His movements were so slight that Yin Chengyu only felt that his skill in serving people was becoming more and more proficient, so he narrowed his eyes comfortably, lingering with his fingertips on the side of his face, and said with a smile: "The more flattering you are."

Due to Emperor Longfeng's oral order, Xue Shu stayed in Ciqing Palace, accompanying Yin Chengyu every day.

Originally, all of Yin Chengyu's daily expenses were taken care of by Zheng Duobao himself. He was the eunuch in charge of the Ciqing Palace, and Yin Chengyu did not have a crown princess.

But he was worried about handing over the prince's affairs to others, so he could only work hard and take care of both.

Now that Xue Shu is here, he is thoughtful and thoughtful, and Yin Chengyu likes him, so he took over the daily life of the prince logically.

On the one hand, Zheng Duobao felt relieved, but on the other hand, he felt that something was a little strange.

Ever since Xue Shu served the prince, there was no one around the prince who could approach him.Xue Shu took care of washing and changing clothes during the day, took a shower at night, and even took care of making and warming the bed.

The eunuchs and maids who had served the prince had nothing to do but do some chores of cleaning.

Some people even secretly went to Zheng Duobao to complain, saying that Xue Shu had robbed him of his job.There are also those who see Xue Shu as disliked and want to provoke troubles, saying that Xue Shu is afraid that he wants to compete for the position of the head of the East Palace.

Zheng Duobao was gifted by the empress, and he had the affection to take care of Prince Gu, so naturally he didn't take these words to heart.

It's just that when he watched Xue Shu enter the bedroom with the footwashing water, he was still very puzzled.Even if you want to serve the prince to show your loyalty, don't you have to grab such trivial tasks as serving foot washing water?

Xue Shu naturally didn't know what Zheng Duobao was thinking, even if he knew, he didn't care.

He carried the copper basin into the inner room, put the copper basin on the footrest, and rolled up his sleeves naturally: "Your Highness is afraid of the cold, ginger juice is added to this hot water, soaking more can warm you up."

After entering November, the weather gets colder and colder.

In the past few years, the winter has become colder every year, and many homeless refugees have died of freezing and starvation almost every year.Although no disasters have occurred this year, but these two days, Yin Chengyu looked at the notebooks sent from all over the world, feeling faintly worried.So he proposed to Emperor Longfeng to reduce the expenses in the palace and use the saved money to build the Sian Chay Hall, just in case.

Emperor Longfeng had a good reputation, and even if he was an emperor, he could not cut expenses left and right. He saved money from the treasury and he could build more palaces or gardens with a deduction. Naturally, he agreed.

On the contrary, Yin Chengyu, as the crown prince, cut down all the duties of the Eastern Palace in order to set an example for all the officials.Now that it's winter, the earth dragon is not even burned, only the four corners are placed with heaters.

And Yin Chengyu had always been afraid of the cold, and when the weather got colder, he couldn't sleep well in the middle of the night.

Xue Shu then deliberately found a folk method, adding ginger juice to hot water and letting him soak his feet to warm up.

"Why don't you call someone else?" Yin Chengyu frowned, but didn't move.

"How can there be a minister who serves him well?" Xue Shu smiled, took off his shoes and socks indifferently, and put his feet into the water.

Yin Chengyu's skin was already extremely white, and his feet hadn't seen the sun all year round, and even more so, the cyan meridians were clearly visible on the arches of his feet.Soaked in hot water at this time, the skin is flushed, and the neatly trimmed and round toes are slightly curled up, like a jade carving dyed with deep red flower juice, and everything is delicate.

Xue Shu stared slightly, his Adam's apple rolled up and down for a moment, and then he controlled his strength and pressed the sole of his foot for him.

The moderate pinch made Yin Chengyu sigh comfortably, and looked at Xue Shu with softer eyes: "You don't have to do this again in the future, you just hand over the recipe to the people below, and ask them to serve you."

"I am willing."

Yin Chengyu was sympathetic, but Xue Shu didn't appreciate it.He raised his eyes to meet Yin Chengyu's gaze, his eyes were fixed, and he couldn't help but strengthen his hands, and repeated again: "I am willing to serve Your Highness."

If Yin Chengyu hadn't noticed what he was thinking at the beginning, now that his voice was very hoarse, he would understand even if he didn't understand.

He lowered his eyes and saw Xue Shu's change.

The young man is really full of vigor, even washing his feet is not restless.

The sympathy that had just been born disappeared in an instant. Yin Chengyu squinted his eyes, raised one leg and put it on his knee, and pressed his wet foot against it. What do you think?"

The clothes were wet with warm water, and when they penetrated through the layers of clothing and reached the skin, they were already icy cold.

Xue Shu was so excited that he clenched his teeth and didn't make a sound.

"That minister... use more force." Xue Shu's voice was broken, he took a deep breath to suppress the desire that was about to explode in his heart, lowered his head and continued to massage Yin Chengyu's acupoints, and lightly stroked with his fingertips.

There was a slight itching from the soles of the feet, and it went straight to the bottom of my heart.

Yin Chengyu couldn't help moving, and glanced at him again, adding some strength to his toes, as if warning him to be quiet.

Xue Shu didn't seem to notice his warning, just lowered his head and continued to massage.

Only on the exposed arm, where the blue veins are bursting out, can one see a trace of unrest.

……

The water cools quickly in winter, but within two quarters of an hour, it is already completely cold.

Xue Shu wiped the water off Yin Chengyu's feet before he stood up. The hem of his clothes was covered with dark water stains, and vague footprints could be vaguely seen.

Yin Chengyu was reclining on the couch, with Mrs. Tang stuffed under her feet, her expression was full of ridicule: "It's all for washing Gu's feet, why can't he stand still? It's not good for a young man to be so weak. Another day Gu will call the small kitchen for you Stew some tonic soup to make up for it."

Xue Shu pursed his lips tightly and looked at him, his eyes were full of unsatisfied longing.

He never thought that His Highness would apply what he taught him to him one day.

That feeling...is happy, but unsatisfying.The idea that drove his mind crazy was pushed to infinity.

But in the end, he still endured it.

Xue Shu clenched his fists, and bent down little by little to carry the copper basin on which he stepped.

Yin Chengyu, who was leaning on the couch, leaned over at this moment, twirled his fingertips around the broken hair hanging around his temples, and smiled with his phoenix eyes: "Remember to change your wet clothes, otherwise outsiders will have to wear them if you catch a cold." Said that I have treated you badly."

Xue Shu looked into his eyes, and it took him a while to calm down.
