night.

After a day of heavy dark clouds circling, the torrential rain finally poured down, accompanied by fierce winds that swayed the trees from side to side.

On the west side of the Cangyang Hall, there is an inconspicuous arched door, which is covered by green and thick trees, so it is hazy, and it is impossible to find it unless you walk in.

Looking in along the arch, blue-gray stone slabs engraved with bat patterns are neatly laid on the ground, and several bungalows with gray walls and black tiles are scattered irregularly.

One of the rooms was still lit by candlelight.

Yi Xiu sat down on the bed, his upper body was naked, and several bottles of hemostatic medicine and a roll of gauze were thrown beside him.

The wound on the arm was still slowly oozing blood, and the torn robes were randomly piled up in the corner of the ground.

Relying on the bandaging method in memory, Yi Xiu tore off a piece of gauze, bit off the cork on the medicine bottle, and evenly sprinkled some medicine powder on the wound.

Fortunately, it was his left arm that was injured, and Yi Xiu was not left-handed either, so one hand was a little troublesome, but he managed to bandage the wound well by relying on his mouth.

"It's raining so heavily, it seems that Chu Liyuan won't be able to come back tonight." The rain seeped in through the cracks of the open windows, and the wooden windows were rattled by the wind.

Yi Xiu put on his coat, got up and walked to the window, looking at the constantly shaking wooden window, his eyes were slightly relaxed.

He has nothing to do tonight, so he should change shifts with the hidden guards he sent and guard Chu Liyuan secretly.But now that there is such a heavy rain, mixed with strong winds, Chu Liyuan will definitely stay in Xihe Palace.

Yi Xiu looked at his left arm, and the wound would almost heal by tomorrow, so he was not afraid of being seen by Chu Liyuan.

Yi Xiu closed the window, turned around and walked back to the bed, lowered his head to pack the healing items.

"Master Commander!" There was a sudden knock on the door in a hurry.

Yi Xiu was taken aback, and quickly turned around to open the door.

As expected, the one standing outside the door was An Qi, the hidden guard he sent to follow Chu Liyuan.

Yi Xiu frowned, and said in a cold tone, "I didn't ask you to follow His Majesty, why did you come here?"

An Qi lowered his head, and his voice was hoarse: "Your Majesty went to Concubine Jiang's place with Your Majesty before. When passing by the Imperial Garden, Your Majesty happened to see Sir and Concubine Jiang together. After Sir and Empress left, Your Majesty went Xihe Palace, but for some unknown reason, His Majesty returned to Cangyang Palace after staying for less than a quarter of an hour. Just now His Majesty didn’t need his subordinates to follow, and said that His Majesty should go to Cangyang Palace immediately.”

Thinking of Chu Liyuan's expression when he left Xihe Palace, An Qi's heart trembled. His Majesty's temperament, those who followed His Majesty before he took the throne, were very clear. They were really moody, and Chu Liyuan had a desire for control. very strong.

Although An Qi doesn't think His Majesty cares much about Concubine Jiang, Concubine Jiang is also His Majesty's woman, and their lord and His Majesty's concubine have been alone and widowed for how long. Will you change your boss directly?

To be honest, An Qi still respects Ling Ye.

This is true no matter in terms of strength or qualifications.

Yi Xiu glanced at his naked upper body, turned around and walked into the room, "Go back. I'll change my clothes and go see Your Majesty."

The system was playing games with his companions, and he didn't know when he would be free, so he could only bite the bullet and rush up alone.

Yi Xiu really didn't expect that he was so unlucky that he was bumped into by Chu Liyuan for the first time in the official plot.

If An Qi hadn't come to tell him, he wouldn't have known.

The only thing to be thankful for is that other people's designs are still intact.

As long as the characters don't collapse, the plot doesn't matter.Yi Xiu thought of what the system told him, as long as the ending of each world does not deviate, it doesn't matter if the process is a bit tortuous.

Yi Xiu found a spare robe, turned his head, and found that An Qi had left at some point.

After changing his clothes, Yi Xiu frowned and looked at the torrential rain outside, then glanced at the umbrella hanging on the wall, do you want an umbrella?

2 minutes later, Cangyang Hall.

Ling Ye leaped into the hall lightly, without disturbing the attendants in the hall.

"His Majesty."

Chu Liyuan was still sitting in front of the black long desk, dressed in a black robe inlaid with gold, with his eyes half downcast, flipping through the booklets.

Yi Xiu half-kneeled on the ground, bowed his head after saluting, and remained silent.

About half an hour passed.

Chu Liyuan raised his head from the case, his dark eyes were like a bottomless abyss.

"What did you talk about with Concubine Jiang before?"

Hearing Chu Liyuan's deep, hoarse and indifferent voice, Yi Xiu said without hesitation: "Your Majesty, after returning to the palace after completing the mission, I happened to meet Concubine Jiang, because I was afraid that Concubine Jiang would think that I was an assassin. , to disturb His Majesty’s rest, that’s why this subordinate showed up against the law and explained to Empress.”

Yi Xiu didn't dare to raise his head, and complained secretly in his heart, obviously in the original plot, the original owner and the heroine met for the first time, and Chu Liyuan didn't find out at all, how did he change completely!

"System, have you finished the game yet?!"

"..." The system seems to be still addicted to the game, and has no time to pay attention to Yi Xiu.

Yi Xiu greeted the system secretly.

Depend on!Chu Liyuan is right in front of you, but you didn't notice him, your monitoring ability is too weak.

Now it leaves me alone to face the uncertain tyrant.

Yi Xiu tried his best to maintain an indifferent expression, regretting that he didn't discuss with the system in advance, so he directly chose the random world, but now he has fallen into this situation.

Ever since he came to this world, Yi Xiu felt that his luck was not good, and there was an unreliable system, and he didn't know what he was doing now!

Chu Liyuan narrowed his eyes slightly, and looked straight at the wound on his left arm with a sharp and treacherous gaze, "Are you injured? In the hands of those trash?"

A little hesitation flashed in Yi Xiu's downcast eyes, this... this must not be true, doesn't it make him look too useless?But if it is not, then how to explain his injury?

After a pause of two seconds, Yi Xiu was about to speak.I heard Chu Liyuan's indifferent voice floating from above: "Forget it, I don't want to hear it anymore. Get up."

Yi Xiu was quite surprised, but he stood up obediently.

After all, he didn't even believe the excuse he thought before, so now he doesn't need to explain it. Although he doesn't know what Chu Liyuan is thinking, it is definitely not a bad thing for him at present.

Even when he stood up straight, Yi Xiu still lowered his head, and his eyelashes were lowered, covering the gleam in his eyes.

Ling Ye seemed to be really different.Chu Liyuan leaned against the back of the chair, and looked around Yi Xiu's slender body.

He still remembered that Ling Ye was personally appointed by him as the commander of the hidden guards. Not only was he powerful, but he was also extremely loyal to him.It's just that his temper was a bit cold, he asked a question, and Ling Ye only answered one sentence, and he was stingy with saying the next word.

After so many years, Chu Liyuan really thought that Ling Ye was like this to everyone, but today, when he happened to see him talking with Jiang Wanxi, Chu Liyuan discovered that he, the envoy of the hidden guard, also said that When talking too much.

Chu Liyuan knew a long time ago that his concubine Jiang was still thinking about Chu Yun'an, his good brother, in private.Therefore, the weak interest in Jiang Wanxi at the beginning has long been worn out in the past few years.

The reason why he still kept her, and even continued to favor her, was to see how she and his good brother plotted against him behind his back.

Chu Liyuan withdrew his gaze and closed his eyes lazily.

As if thinking of something, Fu opened it again, looking at Yi Xiu again: "Come here."
