Chapter 23

In order to develop the characteristics of women in the new era, Tang Xia rapidly and powerfully recovered to the best state,

“Your Majesty, you look better today.” Lyuyou were fixing Tang Xia’s hair behind her. Her hair was hanging on her shoulder and was tidied up as a cloudy bun.

Tang Xia murmured proudly and her eyes were like the water wave, scattering on the beauty inside the bronze mirror. Lyuyou used a light-color pen to draw a beauty mark under her eye.

Lyuyou picked up a gauze cloth in the Gold Phoebe cabinets and handed over to Tang Xia. “You seem to like pink and this pink smoky gauze was a special reward from the emperor.”

Tang Xia took the gauze dress and the material was comfortable and even a faint cherry wood fragrance spread out.

“Just leave me.”

Tang Xia turned a few laps in front of the mirror and straightened her back when she went out.

“Your Grace, the eunuch Dushun just came to report that the emperor was enjoying the cool in the Royal Garden. Do you want to go there?”

Thinking of Helian Jue’s handsome face, Tang Xia could not like it. However, a good appearance was the most important. Therefore, Tang Xia nodded with satisfaction.

“Well, who is with the emperor in the Royal Garden?” Tang Xia asked when they would arrive, but Lyuyou’s answer made her almost fall down to the ground.

“Your Grace, it’s Lengmei.”

[Fans] Potato Chips are Delicious: wow! Scatter flowers. Fighting, anchor!

[Fans] Complaints Monster: Clap her face and pull her bra! Let her understand why the flowers are that colorful!

Tang Xia glanced at her dress, pink and tender, which shortened a bit of authority.

Facing the scorching sun, Tang Xia walked for a long time but did not come across Lengmei.

There was a peach forest ahead. The breeze touched her cheeks with a special kind of warmth.

“You’re in good mood, my love.” Helian Jue’s voice unexpectedly turned up behind. Tang Xia was stunned and turned back, but rushed into a strong chest.

Against the light, Helian Jue’s handsome face showed up in her eyes with a bit of pride and indifference. His eyes were dark and deep. From Tang Xia’s point of view, she could clearly see his thin lips with a slight smile.

And his nostrils.

“Your Majesty…” Tang Xia’s voice softened.

Helian Jue was unaffected at all, holding Tang Xia’s hand and moving towards the direction of Shangshufang.

The main character she should meet was not here, but the emperor inexplicably pulled her to other places. What was the development of plots?

Tang Xia immediately got rid of his hand. “Your Majesty… I heard that Miss Leng is also in the Royal Garden.”

Hearing Lengmei’s name, Helian Jue wore an unnoticeable smile. His fortified chin was tight and a handsome face was as cold as a hail. His intents also deepened. “I did not know you two’s relationship was that good.”

Seeing his reaction, Tang Xia seriously thought for a while. “I hope to go to Shangshufang indeed…”

Helian Jue squinted his eyes. He looked at her for a while and then held her hand again.

When they were entering the Shangshufang, the abundant smell of ink and books swarmed into noses. Before Tang Xia could express her surprise, she was pushed under a strong chest.

Helian Jue’s handsome face was in front of her and he wore an evil smile. “Do you miss me, my love?”

Tang Xia awkwardly moved her body, which caused Helian Jue’s unhappiness.

“If you move again, I will rape you right here.” Helian Jue lifted Tang Xia’s chin. The sunlight outside the window scattered on her forehead. Tang Xia had made up today and her face was really tender.

“Your Majesty, I want to watch you reviewing memorials.” Tang Xia pushed him without strength.

Helian Jue stared at her with darkness in his eyes. It seemed that he was trying to tell the authenticity of Tang Xia’s words. For a while, he casually leaned on the emperor chair.

“I am sleepy. You always fo good to me.”

Tang Xia was stunned, taking the book on the Gold Phoebe board and clearing her throat.

[Fans] Complaints Monster: Only I feel that the anchor is molested?

[Visitor] White Dragon in the Wave: +10086

“This is a strategic retreat!”

Tang Xia said in her mind but her face turned pink.

“Your Majesty, there is a beauty named Yi Jiazi from South County. She is extremely beautiful. The merchants from South Country comes and hand her over to you as a gift.”

Tang Xia suddenly stopped.

“Why would I read this kind of sentences to the emperor as his imperial concubine?”

Tang Xia felt inexplicably strange but ignored Helian Jue’s smile.

The next volume, “Imperial Guard Chu Tiankuo is brave to fight against the thieves…”

This one was normal… Wait, Chu Tiankuo?

[Fans] Love Hug: Chu Tiankuo!

[Fans] Sprite Soda: Again?

[Fans] Nongfu Spring is a Bit Sweet: Ah! My master Chu!

Tang Xia’s mind instantly became disordered. Finally, everything was settled—

“It must be a fake Chu Tiankuo.”

“Why do you stop reading?” Helian Jue whispered by her ear, holding her from her back and leaning on her with an arm resting on her shoulder.

Tang Xia turned her head unnaturally. “Your Majesty, I just feel a little bit familiar with the name.”

Helian Jue’s voice softened and tried to tempt Tang Xia step by step. “Does my Yue Ji have interest on an imperial guard?”

Tang Xia was stunned and kneeled immediately. “I just wonder… such a trivial thing would be put there for you, the emperor, to read. This kind of trivial must bother you.”

Helian Jue wore a smile and dragged her into his arms.

“I won’t feel bothering if you are here.”

Tang Xia was shocked by his words, trying to pretend to be shy. Finally, her face was only suffocated to be pink.

“Stay back…” Tang Xia blinked her eyes and pretended to be a hesitant little girl.

Helian Jue lifted her chin with his index and touched her lips with his thumb. The deep lust showed up in his eyes.

Looking at the handsome face moving closer to her, Tang Xia thought of Chu Tiankuo’s arrogant face.

“Catch the assassin! Come and catch the assassin!”

A sharp voice stopped Helian Jue’s next action. A sense of intolerance flashed by his eyes. In the end, he only pinched Tang Xia’s face. “Go and have a look.”

Tang Xia took a deep breath and followed him.

At the last time when she called for catching the assassin, Chu Tiankuo was the assassin dressed in a blue eunuch suit.

Tang Xia did not know why he thought of him at this moment. Perhaps his enchanting face was really unforgettable.

The sun rolled up one layer after another, stacking on Tang Xia’s body. She squinted her eyes, finding a man tebowed on the ground, wearing silver armor and holding a long sword.

His voice was indifferent and deep.

“The assassin is a cat. You don’t have to worry.”

Tang Xia was pulled back by this familiar voice. The man was beheaded and wore a cold smile.

It was him.

[Fans] Nongfu Spring is a Bit Sweet: Ah! Master Chu!

[Fans] Machine Ghost: It’s him again! I want to call the system!

[Fans] Little Mai: Is this a fantasy story or a fantasy story?

[Fans] A Raccoon Dreams Travels: …Why is the assassin a cat…

Just for a second, Tang Xia’s eyes turned red. Her amorous eyes contained shinning light. Chu Tiankuo wore a silver armor and looked really handsome. His nose was to be carved like a statue. It was hard to imagine how charming his body would be inside the silver armor.

Chu Tiankuo wore an indifferent smile and opened his thin lips for a few silent words—

Washboard.

Tang Xia’s heartbeat instantly fell back to the freezing point.

“How can there be a cat in my Shangshufang?” Helian Jue was unhappy and placed one of his hand on Tang Xia’s shoulder.

Tang Xia was against the light, glimpsing Helian Jue’s tight eyebrows. It was unbelievable…

Helian Jue… could not recognize Chu Tiankuo!

“Is he lost his memory? Or… I am lost?”

“Maybe it came from Chaoyang Palace. I am working on it.” Chu Tiankuo packed up his playful smile and wore a serious expression. His eyesight unnoticeably fell onto Tang Xia’s right hand which was held by Helian Jue.

“Well, well.” Helian Jue waved his hand. “Yue Ji, come with me in.”

Tang Xia stepped forward. Helian Jue’s palm touched her waist naturally.

“Your Majesty.” The deep voice rose again and Chu Tiankuo lowered his head.” Lady Leng was just talking about you, Your Majesty. I need to take some words back from you.”

Helian Jue finally gave up the idea to take Tang Xia inside the room. His eyes were dark. He just left after simply asking her to have a rest.

While Chu Tiankuo stood up, his armor was dragged by Tang Xia. Due to her excessive force, Tang Xia fiercely fell in his arms.

“You’re still mindless as before.” Chu Tiankuo sneered and felt soft on his chest.

Tang Xia rounded back to the original topic. “Why are you here!”

“Catch the assassin.” Chu Tiankuo answered strictly.

“I mean You are not… dead?” Tang Xia blinked her eyes and looked surprised.

Chu Tiankuo raised his eyebrows when finding her pretending to be cute. He pinched Tang Xia’s face with his right hand and got closed. “Woman, do you really want me to die?”

Tang Xia ridiculed. “No, of course not. Welcome you to reborn.”

Then, she realized and asked, “But you’re the assassin before, aren’t you? And now you’re wearing a silver armor! What do you play for? Cop-Tur?”

Tang Xia fell into deep self-doubt. “Am I really lost my mind…”

Chu Tiankuo used a sneer to answer her question. “I am a bug of this game, an existence of a virus king. It’s not that easy to destroy me.”

Tang Xia wept in her mind.

“It’s over… I did not lose my mind. The system is broken, so is Chu Tiankuo’s brain…”

Chu Tiankuo gained a few black lines on his forehead and gnashed his teeth in anger. “You are looking for death!”

Tang Xia lowered her head with eyes shining. “But it’s really good to see you back.”

The sunshine scattered on her forehead, showing a piece of pure. The breeze blew over the ground, making the flowers and grasses of the Shangshufang wafting. “This woman is always smiling even when she is crying.”

Chu Tiankuo turned his head unnaturally. “I don’t need to be missed by a washing board.”

The comments of the bullet screen were flashing fiercely.
