Self-cultivation after the cannon fodder

Chapter 27

When going out of the palace, Zhu Sining went out in plain clothes, and only borrowed a light carriage and left. When returning to the palace, he followed Zong Qihao's imperial driver, and traveled all the way.

Zhu Sining and Zong Qihao sat in the same carriage, opened the curtain and looked at the market outside through a small slit.Outside the imperial palace was surrounded by a circle of mansions of aristocratic families, and there were not many pedestrians. Occasionally, family members of officials heard the sound of drums clearing the venue, looked curiously, and hurriedly avoided after finding out that it was the royal family.

Before wishing Si Ning and Zong Qihao to return to the Qin-Wang Mansion, there was no such a big battle. One is that Zong Qihao didn't like this, and felt that it was too troublesome. Clearing the field would not speed up the progress too much, but would be more eye-catching.

With nothing to see, Zhu Sining put down the curtains and asked, "Why is Your Majesty going out of the palace all of a sudden?"

Zong Qihao's expression remained unchanged: "I thought that Ah Ning hadn't returned by that time, and I was worried that I would miss the time when the palace gate was locked."

Zhu Sining: "I know I have to return before the palace gate is locked, Your Majesty don't have to worry." Although he doesn't care about things, he still knows the specific rules and regulations.

"It's because I'm worrying too much." Zong Qihao gently lifted the curtains, looking back at the wealthy mansions on both sides of the road.

Originally, he didn't want to beat the drums all the way to clear the field, but he couldn't help feeling flustered when he remembered his previous life, so he ordered people to prepare a guard of honor and blocked some roads in advance.

"A-Ning returned to Qin-Wangfu just for this?" Zong Qihao picked up Zhu Xiuyong's specially customized exercise plan for Zhu Sining, "There are all these palaces, even if they are riding horses, there are also newborn ponies that are more docile. Ju, there is no need to go back to Prince Qin's mansion."

"Of course that's not the point." Zhu Sining leaned on the cushion, and the carriage shook him dizzily. "I haven't done this for a long time. It's always a little empty. It's always more reassuring to have a big brother to guide me."

"Haven't done it for a long time?" Zong Qihao frowned as he looked at the items in the plan. It was written very carefully, which time of the day it is best to do it, how long it takes, and how intense it is. After that, there are some herbs Soaking can relieve muscle soreness, and the prescription is also written in detail.

Zhu Sining leaned over to take a look: "What hasn't been done for a long time? Did your elder brother write it on it?"

"No," Zong Qihao gave the plan to Zhu Sining, "It's not written on it, it's Aning who said it."

Zhu Sining blinked and asked him back, "Did I say that?"

Zong Qihao nodded.

"Then why don't I remember, really?"

After being told by Zhu Sining, Zong Qihao became unsure: "Maybe...not?"

Although he did hear it.

But the two had just reconciled, so there was no need to dwell on this meaningless question.

Shaking uncomfortably and reading the words, Zhu Sining became more and more dizzy, and simply lost the plan: "Forget it, do what the elder brother said."

The two hurried back before the palace gate was locked.

As soon as he returned to the Jiaofang Palace, Zhu Sining asked the servants below to get ready to eat, while he rushed to take a bath and change clothes.

While Zhu Sining was taking a bath, Zong Qihao picked up the plan again, found a pen and paper, copied a copy and put it away.

After Zhu Sining finished washing, Zong Qihao said: "Just now I took a closer look at the plan. The bath with the potion will start tonight, right?"

Zhu Sining looked confused: "Is there?"

After taking a bath, his spirits improved a lot. He sat at the table with Zong Qihao, and looked over the plan seriously under the fairly bright sky.

"Brother wrote it too carefully..." Zhu Sining muttered while watching, "It's not like I don't know how to write preparations."

Zong Qihao got up and took another lamp and put it next to Zhu Sining.

Zhu Sining's hair was not completely dry, and the hair on both sides of the sideburns was pasted together randomly, and there were still tiny drops of water falling from it from time to time.

Drops of water rolled down to Zhu Sining's neckline, the candlelight was dense, and the soaked neckline revealed the inner skin color.

Snow-skinned, black-haired and red-lipped, with thick eyelashes on either side of the straight bridge of the nose, she just kneels down and concentrates, with loose casual clothes spread out beside her.

Zong Qihao felt in a trance that the years are quiet and time is always there.

Zong Qihao stared fixedly for a while, then raised his hand to take the towel that was brought up silently by the palace servant behind him, his Adam's apple moved slightly: "I'll wipe Ah Ning's hair."

"Okay, please excuse me, Your Majesty." Zhu Sining responded casually, turning his body slightly to facilitate Zong Qihao's movements.

Seeing that Zhu Sining had been staring at several intense projects, Zong Qihao asked, "Does Ah Ning think these are too difficult to do?"

"A little bit." Zhu Sining believed that if he followed what Zhu Xiuyong said, he would definitely achieve the desired effect.

only……

Zhu Sining flicked the wake-up time on the schedule: "Does Your Majesty think I can get up at this time?"

Of course not.

Zong Qihao put a towel over Zhu Sining's eyes: "Ah Ning, let's sleep."

With a towel covering Zhu Sining's eyes, Zong Qihao suddenly became bolder. He pushed back the other's hair and pinched the other's exposed ears.

He didn't dare to do big moves, so he enjoyed small moves.

After all, he still remembered what Zhu Sining said before, he was not happy to be underestimated, he would only answer when he wanted to answer, if he provoked the other party again, he might really leave the palace.

"Your Majesty also thinks I can't do it?" Zhu Sining tore off the towel, looked up at Zong Qihao.

Even though the fact is that it is almost impossible for Zhu Sining to get up early, Zong Qihao dare not say it outright.

"Maybe Ah Ning can move the time back a little bit depending on the situation?"

Zhu Sining put the towel back on his hair and dried himself: "Your Majesty is nervous?"

"No, why are you nervous?" Zong Qihao laughed twice to himself, and grabbed the towel from Zhu Sining's hand.

"But you have a lot of modifiers." Zhu Sining stared at him and asked with bent eyes, "Are you really not nervous?"

"..."

Zong Qihao was silent for a moment, then dragged him forward, covering Zhu Sining's face with a whole towel: "If there is nothing, then there is nothing."

"Oh." Zhu Sining's muffled voice came from under the towel.

His head was completely resting on Zong Qihao's knees, his slightly wet hair left a faint imprint on his clothes.Zong Qihao lifted half of the towel to let Zhu Sining breathe with his nose exposed, while the upper half of his face was still covered with the towel.

Knowing that Zong Qihao was talking ironically again, Zhu Sining laughed: "Your Majesty, if you want to completely stop me from speaking, you should completely cover my face."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zong Qihao covered his mouth with his hand.

"Well..." Zhu Sining said vaguely, "Okay, that's fine too."

The warm breath sprayed on the palm, and the heat flowed through the palm of the hand, and Zong Qihao stopped wiping his hair completely.

He bent down and faced Zhu Sining.

Then a kiss fell across the towel.

Surrounded by inexplicable silence, Zhu Sining could only feel a shadow above, but couldn't see the specific location, only felt as if something had gently caressed her.

"Your Majesty," Zhu Sining broke the silence, "Do you feel it?"

"...um, what, what?"

"It should be very late now." Zhu Sining couldn't see the sky, but this didn't stop him from continuing, "Your Majesty really didn't feel it. It seems to be getting darker?"

Zong Qihao looked out, it was dark, an old eunuch was muttering about the rules of the palace, leading several young eunuchs with lanterns and candles, and lit the lamp sockets on the side of the road one by one.

Zong Qihao: "It's darker."

After dark, it's time to...

Zong Qihao tried his best to control himself not to think wrongly, the two of them had been lying on the same bed for so long, Zhu Sining had never hinted at this, so it must not be what he meant.

"I also think it's almost time." Zhu Sining raised his chin slightly, and said to the shadow, "So Your Majesty..."

Before he finished speaking, Zong Qihao covered his mouth.

Zong Qihao tried his best to control his trembling hands: "I know."

"A Ning," Zong Qihao hugged Zhu Sining, "I think..."

The towel on his head fell off, and Zhu Sining looked at him without blinking, his eyes were clear, reflecting the shadow of Zong Qihao's forehead.

Zong Qihao's upper and lower teeth collided, he hadn't felt this way for a long time.

No matter how calm one more life brought, it all turned into ashes in front of Zhu Sining.All the tension in this life was given to Zhu Sining.

I wish Sining to wait patiently for a while.

Zong Qihao was still thinking about how to say it. To be honest, it was his first time to confess in two lifetimes.

Zhu Sining undoubtedly liked him, even if he said it first, it wouldn't hurt.

"Tonight...tonight, I want to stay, so..."

"Let's eat here!" Seeing that Zong Qihao had to hesitate for a long time to eat, Zhu Sining was really impatient, so he picked it up by himself.

"Huh?" Zong Qihao was stunned.

Zhu Sining: "Although it looks bright now, it's actually getting late." As soon as he came back, he asked the palace servants to prepare the meal, and it was almost time.

After waiting for so long, he could clearly feel the gurgling sound of the jejunum in his abdomen.

"Are you really hungry?" Zong Qihao remembered that Zhu Sining might have spent the whole day in the small playground in Qin-Wang Mansion.

Seeing him bowing his head and pinching his stomach now, he was angry and funny.

Those who were interrupted were those words that Zong Qihao had saved for so long, but were interrupted so easily by Zhu Sining.However, after Zhu Sining said that he was hungry, and then he heard the jejunum sound in his stomach, those frustrations and apprehensions suddenly subsided again.

Zong Qihao shook his head helplessly: "I'll take it easy."

Zhu Sining nodded obediently: "Okay, I will wait for His Majesty to come with you."

Zong Qihao took advantage of the opportunity to hug Zhu Sining, and Zong Qihao tidied up Zhu Sining's hair.

By the way, sort out your mood.

The person in his arms waited quietly for a while, then stretched out a finger to poke Zong Qihao.

"His Majesty……"

Zong Qihao didn't answer, waiting for Zhu Sining to continue.

"It's comfortable to hold, isn't it?"

Once a stranger and second acquaintance, Zong Qihao gritted his teeth and asked, "What's the matter?" He wanted to see what answer Zhu Sining could give.

Zhu Sining: "But it's very hot."

Zong Qihao: "..."

Zong Qihao threw the towel powerlessly: "Forget it, let's eat."

Those good feelings before were indeed illusions, he must have been blinded by the water vapor, so his brain was flooded!
