Chapter 263 Hot spring bath
Chu Tianlong turned to look at Chu Zixi and said earnestly: "Xi'er, I once promised your grandmother that no matter what mistakes Pingyi made, I would spare her life. So, let Pingyi spend the rest of her life in the prison!"
Chu Zixi nodded slightly to show her understanding, thinking secretly in her heart: This is also good, letting Pingyi suffer from bone-eroding pain every day and be in unbearable pain, this will make me feel better than killing her directly!
Jun Feimo stood beside Chu Zixi, his doting eyes seemed to have seen through everything.
"Okay, it's getting late, you should go back to the palace and rest first!" Chu Tianlong said to the two of them gently.
Jun Feimo and Chu Zixi walked out of Guixi Palace hand in hand. Their figures looked particularly harmonious under the candlelight along the way.
Chu Zixi asked softly, "Did you already know about what happened tonight?"
Jun Feimo's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a mysterious smile, but he did not directly answer Chu Zixi's question.
He just smiled at her with a twinkle in his eyes.
Seeing this, Chu Zixi frowned in confusion and asked, "What's going on? Tell me quickly!"
Jun Feimo nodded gently to show his affirmation, and uttered a short and low voice: "Yeah."
This made Chu Zixi even more curious, and she couldn't wait to ask: "Then what did you do?"
Jun Feimo smiled gently, held her hand tightly, and consoled her: "Xi'er, do you think so highly of me? This is the Kingdom of Chu, what can I do?"
Chu Zixi pouted her lips and snorted in dissatisfaction: "Tsk... Don't try that on me, I don't believe it, just tell me now!"
Jun Feimo scratched her nose lovingly, with a smile on his face, and said softly: "Okay, let me tell you, in fact, General Minghun is Tianyi in disguise, and the real General Minghun is still thousands of miles away."
Chu Zixi's eyes widened in surprise, "So that's how it is! He acted so well!"
Jun Feimo smiled and nodded, "Yes, Tianyi's acting is indeed good. But all this is thanks to the emperor. If it weren't for the emperor's arrangement, this play would not be able to go on."
Chu Zixi asked curiously: "Where are those soldiers?"
Jun Feimo explained, "Those soldiers are the emperor's dragon guards. They were trained by the emperor himself, so they are naturally capable of fighting ten enemies at once. Moreover, the rebels were very scared when they saw General Minghun. Add to that the strength of the dragon guards, and they are naturally vulnerable. In addition, we should capture the leader first. As long as Pingyi is captured, they will naturally be thrown into disarray."
Chu Zixi nodded in sudden realization, "Oh! So that's how it is!"
Jun Feimo squeezed Chu Zixi's little hand, a hint of tenderness flashed in his eyes, "Xi'er, what bad things did you do to Pingyi just now? I saw that she seemed to be in pain."
Chu Zixi laughed triumphantly, "The bone-eating heart, coupled with the amplified pain, should be enough for her to bear. This will make her feel better than killing her!"
Jun Feimo looked at her lovingly and said with a smile: "Well, she deserves it!"
The two of them walked to the front of Zhaoyang Palace. Chu Zixi stopped and turned to look at Jun Feimo. "It's late. You should go back and rest."
Jun Feimo looked at her with deep eyes, "I...I want to stay with you for a while longer."
A smile appeared on Chu Zixi's face. "Okay, then stay with me for a while."
Inside the hall, candlelight flickered and light and shadow intertwined, illuminating two figures, one tall and straight, the other petite and delicate.
Jun Feimo reached out and gently embraced Chu Zixi's slender waist. His arms were strong and powerful, emitting a reassuring warmth that seemed to be able to resist all the coldness and anxiety in the world.
He lowered his head slightly, and his face gradually moved closer. Only Chu Zixi's beautiful figure was reflected in his deep eyes.
"Xier~" He whispered softly, his voice low and magnetic.
Then he carefully pecked her soft lips, his movements gentle and delicate.
Chu Zixi closed her eyes and let herself indulge in the warmth and romance of the moment, enjoying this rare and beautiful time.
After a long time, Jun Feimo slowly released her lips, looked at her gently, and said softly: "Xier, go to bed early."
"Yeah." Chu Zixi responded softly, with a blush on her face.
As soon as Jun Feimo left, Xiao Cui and Xiao Lu couldn't wait to walk into the room.
Xiaolu said excitedly: "Princess, there is a hot spring in the back hall of Zhaoyang Palace. I heard from the palace maids that it was a hot spring specially brought in by the emperor for Zhaoyang Palace! Do you want to soak in the hot spring? I heard that the spring water there can relieve fatigue and make people feel very comfortable."
Chu Zixi stretched and her tired body immediately relaxed.
She nodded slightly and showed an expectant smile: "Oh? It sounds good. I just want to relax, and it should be very comfortable to soak in a hot spring."
As soon as Chu Zixi finished speaking, Xiao Cui and Xiao Lu immediately took her to the hot spring pool.
The environment here is elegant, surrounded by various exotic flowers and plants, and the air is filled with a faint fragrance.
The water in the hot spring pool is crystal clear and emitting a wisp of hot steam, making people feel extremely comfortable.
Chu Zixi waved to signal Xiao Cui and Xiao Lu to leave, then slowly took off her clothes and lightly went into the hot spring pool.
The warm spring water instantly surrounded her body, causing her to let out a soft sigh.
She closed her eyes, feeling the comfort and tranquility brought by the hot spring, as if all her troubles had left her.
After soaking in the hot spring water for a while, Chu Zixi's skin became white and delicate, exuding a charming luster.
Chu Zixi soaked in the bath for a while until her body began to feel slightly warm, then she slowly stood up.
She gently wiped the water stains on her body, feeling the freshness and comfort of her skin.
Then, she picked up the clothes that Xiao Cui and the others had already prepared and put them on.
Every piece of clothing exudes a faint fragrance, making her feel extremely comfortable.
After getting dressed, Chu Zixi walked towards the room with light steps.
She opened the door and a warm breath hit her face.
She walked into the room, lay down gently on the soft bed, closed her eyes, and sighed deeply.
At this moment, she felt unprecedented relaxation and satisfaction.
The bedding on the bed was soft and warm, as if hugging her tightly.
Chu Zixi enjoyed this comfort to the fullest, letting her thoughts wander.
She closed her eyes and gradually fell asleep.
