King Shou raised his head and drank the Ruyi tea from the silver vase. The refreshing fragrance suddenly exploded on the tip of his tongue, making his scalp numb with comfort.
He lowered his head, kissed Xiaoxia's lips, and fed her the tea expertly.
Repeatedly, he finally finished all the tea in the bottle.
The tea tasted so good that he couldn't help but lick his lips.
Xiaoxia continued to scold him angrily. As she continued to scold him, her voice gradually became quieter, her eyelids drooped, her body slid down, and she fell asleep on the bed.
She slept with her limbs stretched out, no longer twisted into a lump like before.
The tips of her eyebrows were still frowning tightly, and the sad look on her face was still there.
But her eyes remained motionless, no longer moving wildly under her eyelids.
Her breathing was quick and slow, and she would occasionally sob, but she would also raise the corners of her lips to smile.
King Shou sat down and looked at her, full of exhaustion.
Zhou Zilai walked in obediently: "Your Highness, can I make you a cup of tea?"
King Shou remembered the fragrance of Ruyi tea, and he subconsciously handed over the empty silver bottle: "Pour some water in. Don't wash it, just bring it like this."
Zhou Zilai was a little confused, but he still followed the instructions.
There were some tea leaves left in the silver vase, so the water poured into it also had the taste of tea.
King Shou sipped the light tea, feeling sleepy.
When he woke up, the sun playfully jumped in through the window, illuminating the whole room.
He lay next to Xiaoxia, who lay quietly beside him, with peaceful eyes and long breathing, still not awake.
He breathed a heartfelt sigh of relief and thought thoughtfully about his rare good sleep last night.
It seems that Mu Yunhan's Ruyi Tea is really useful.
He carefully got out of bed, covered Xiaoxia with a quilt, walked outside, and told Zhou Zilai: "I remember that there seems to be a relative of the Jiang family who wants to be the Minister of Rites?"
Zhou Zilai smiled knowingly.
Three days later.
Two pieces of news shocked every major palace in the capital.
One piece of news is that the Muhou Mansion was impeached, and Mu Zixin was dismissed from the post of Minister of Rites, and he closed his door to reflect on his mistakes.
The emperor meaningfully taught all major families that they must cultivate their moral integrity, pay attention to the cultivation of family tradition and private morality, and take good care of their clansmen and families.
Well, everyone knows what it means.
The food scene at Muhou Mansion that day was really ugly and disgusting.
Although it has not been officially stated that the Liuxian Mu family has indeed separated from the Lanjing Mu family, the fact that Mu Zixin was dismissed from his post means that Mu Yunhan won.
Another piece of news is that the emperor appointed Gu Fenglin as Minister of Taichang Temple, and he will resume his post after he recovers.
There was much opposition to this appointment.
The Yushitai was like crazy, handing out notes, seizing every opportunity to make impassioned speeches, and some even resorted to the trick of admonishing someone to death.
The reason is that in all the years since the founding of the Zhao Dynasty, there has never been such a young Minister of Taichang Temple, and there has never been a person from the Mu family to hold this position.
Even if Gu Fenglin is extremely talented, he should wait for his successor as priest and come to Taichang Temple to join in the fun!
The emperor was very calm, turned a blind eye, listened and ignored everything.
But at this time, something strange happened. A censor who had not been involved in the matter suddenly died suddenly.
Upon investigation, the evidence pointed to the Jiang family.
Then, the princess, who had secretly reported to the emperor that she was pregnant, actually fell on the ground and became red, so she had to nurse her fetus.
The two things accumulated together, and the emperor finally couldn't help but get angry. (To be continued)
