Quick Wear: The Sickly Boss Is Addicted to Spoiling Me

Chapter 819: The Scheming Little Emperor x the Cruel and Merciless Regent 8

Shen Xi's hand was not strong, but it made Qi Zhi stop all his movements. Qi Zhi turned around and met Shen Xi's expectant eyes. He couldn't help but feel a little curious and asked softly, "What's the matter?"

Shen Xi licked his lips, as if he was a little nervous, but also as if he had mustered up his courage. His voice rose slightly, with a bit of caution and expectation: "Can I ask the emperor's uncle to be my teacher?"

As soon as he said this, he stared into Qi Zhi's eyes, afraid to miss any change in expression on the other's face, and his fingers subconsciously clenched Qi Zhi's sleeves.

"reason."

His tone was very light, and it was hard to tell what his mood was at the moment.

But the inexplicable 2% increase in favorability showed his mood at the moment, which was definitely not bad.

"I like my uncle, and I want to spend more time with him every day. If it were Master Lou who taught me, my uncle might not come to see me for a long time."

Qi Zhi was stunned at first when he heard Shen Xi's straightforward words. He obviously didn't expect him to give such a reason. He lowered his eyes, avoiding Shen Xi's fiery gaze, with mixed feelings in his heart.

For a long time, he has been turning the tables in the court, playing with the forces of all parties in the palm of his hand. He has long been accustomed to calculating and being calculated. Sincerity is an extremely rare thing in his eyes.

"Is it because he didn't teach well?"

"No, the Grand Tutor taught very well. But I think the Imperial Uncle must have taught better than him."

When Qi Zhi heard his obviously biased words, he actually felt a little happy.

His expression became much better: "I have never taught you, how do you know that I am definitely better than him?"

"My uncle just taught me about memorials and water conservancy construction. I understand. So I think my uncle teaches better than the master."

Qi Zhi did not refuse directly, but asked him the reason with a smile, which proved that this matter was most likely to be successful.

Moreover, his favorability has now reached over 40%. In his heart, Shen Xi is definitely not just a puppet. He must be at least a puppet that he trusts very much.

Shen Xi understood all this, so he made his demands to him even more unscrupulously.

Seeing that he hadn't agreed yet, Shen Xi tugged at his sleeve even more boldly, and asked him again in a slightly coquettish tone: "Is it okay, uncle?"

Qi Zhi looked at Shen Xi's eager look, and the last bit of hesitation in his heart disappeared. He shook his head helplessly, but couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth slightly, raised his hand and gently tapped Shen Xi's forehead, "Forget it, since your majesty trusts me so much, then I will temporarily serve as your majesty's teacher."

Upon hearing this, Shen Xi's face instantly broke into a brilliant smile, his eyes sparkling with excitement, "Great, Uncle! I knew you would agree!"

He was so happy as a child and almost jumped up. If he hadn't taken his status as a king into consideration, he would have cheered out loud.

Since he agreed, he has lived in the palace.

But this was not to build the same palace as Shen Xi, but to tidy up the palace next door and let him live there simply.

And he didn't live here permanently, but sometimes when his classes were late and it was inconvenient for him to leave the palace and go home, he would stay here.

That very evening, Qi Zhi told Lou Xi that he would personally teach Shen Xi in the future.

Lou Xi looked at him in shock. It was not an act at all. The two had known each other since they were young, and they had been friends for at least 5 or 6 years until today.

How well does Lou Xi know him?

In his eyes, Qi Zhi had always been a matter that had nothing to do with him. Now that he had gained power, why should he get involved in this mess?

"That doesn't make sense. Tell me the truth..." Lou Xi said as he moved closer to him, "Are you too bored lately?"

Qi Zhi didn't want to argue with him too much, so he agreed directly after listening to his reasons.

"Yes, I'm just too bored. I want to find something to do. It's a good opportunity for you to have some free time."

"That's right. The whole world is in your hands. It's really boring without any goals."

From then on, Qi Zhi was fully responsible for Shen Xi's studies.

He taught him everything, whether it was Confucian classics on Taoism, political strategies, or even military theories...

He did everything himself.

As they spent so many days together, his trust in Shen Xi grew stronger and stronger. Just as Shen Xi expected, what Qi Zhi needed was not a simple puppet, but someone who could do everything but would stand by him without hesitation.

Qi Zhi treated him better and better. As long as Shen Xi was obedient, Qi Zhi would agree to any request he made.

From the humblest to join him in fooling around, to the most precious to bring any rare treasure in the world to Shen Xi as long as he asked.

The favorability level has successfully climbed to 60% in the past two years.

Love from family.

In Qi Zhi's heart, Shen Xi is no longer a puppet.

He has been struggling in the court for so many years and has always been alone. Now there is someone standing by his side, and he has completely regarded him as his emotional support.

Three years passed in a flash, and Shen Xi had grown into a 17-year-old boy. Under Qi Zhi's careful care and special attention, his physical condition had improved greatly. Although his body was still not completely strong, it was a world of difference compared to the past.

It was a nice day, perfect for outdoor activities. Qi Zhi and Shen Xi came to the shooting range, ready to shoot arrows for fun. Shen Xi was dressed in a light and strong suit, looking heroic. Although he was still thin, his eyes showed determination and confidence.

With a whoosh, Shen Xi shot the first arrow, the arrowhead drew a beautiful arc in the air and stabbed steadily near the center of the target. He turned to look at Qi Zhi excitedly, "Uncle, what do you think of my arrow?"

Qi Zhi nodded slightly, "Not bad, great progress." Then, he pulled the bow slowly, and the arrow flew out like a meteor and hit the center of the bull's eye.

Shen Xi pretended to be lost.

"Uncle, your archery skills are still so amazing. When will I be able to catch up with you?"

Qi Zhi stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder gently, "Don't worry, Your Majesty. As long as you practice hard, you will definitely surpass me."

Shen Xi didn't want to practice anymore, so he threw the bow and arrow to the eunuch beside him.

"Uncle, come and rest with me."

In fact, I didn't practice archery for a long time, only half an hour.

Qi Zhi agreed, but he didn't stop teasing.

"Your Majesty used to be able to practice for an hour or two without complaining of being tired, but now you are becoming more and more delicate?"

Although he said this, he still poured him a cup of tea and handed it to him.

Shen Xi took the tea, took a sip, and made a face at him.

"That's also what the emperor's uncle did."
