He had just been reborn when he was imprisoned by his nemesis, the Empress?

Xu Yi looked at her graceful figure, a lump forming in his throat, and said helplessly.

"How can I rest if you're like this?"

Su Qingluan glanced up at Xu Yi, her tone languid and teasing.

"How come you can't rest when I'm like this?"

"You need to rest, even if you can't. You're sick right now, so you can't do strenuous exercise."

Xu Yi: ......

He silently looked away, unsure how to respond.

Buzzing...

A faint buzzing sound rang out, and a sound transmission jade pendant slowly emerged from above the storage ring that Su Qingluan had placed on the bedside table.

She raised her hand and picked up the jade pendant, infusing a wisp of spiritual energy into her fingertips.

Jiang Xuange's voice immediately came from the jade pendant.

"Su Qingluan... I accidentally blew up the kitchen..."

Su Qingluan's face darkened when she heard that her imperial kitchen had exploded, and her tone was full of anger.

"You can't even cook, what else can you do? You look like a perfect wife and mother, but you can't even cook a meal, is that it?"

On the other end of the communication jade pendant, Jiang Xuange's voice was full of resentment.

"Why do you always yell at me? Did I yell at you for losing Xu Yi?"

Su Qingluan snorted coldly in anger and said in a cold voice

"Useless trash, wait until I get there."

After saying that, he cut off the telepathic communication and got up to walk quickly toward the imperial kitchen.

Not long after, Jiang Xuange returned to the palace with her eyes downcast and a pitiful look on her face.

She hurried to the bedside, gently nestled into Xu Yi's arms, and kissed his cheek twice with her soft lips, her voice sweet and affectionate.

"My husband, my husband..."

Xu Yi did not refuse. After she gave him a light kiss, he raised his hand to hold her head, and then leaned up slightly to kiss her lips.

As their kiss deepened, Xu Yi had the idea of ​​cultivating together to improve his strength.

Her fingertips gripped the hem of Jiang Xuange's clothes, her movements somewhat urgent.

Jiang Xuange gently pressed his hand, stopping him in time, her brows and eyes filled with worry.

"Husband...no, I've learned about this illness before. You need to rest."

Xu Yi was slightly taken aback, his eyes filled with confusion and reluctance, and asked...

"Huh??? Can't I not rest?"

Jiang Xuange gently shook her head, her tone firm yet gentle, firmly upholding her bottom line.

"Can't."

Seeing this, Xu Yi gently shook her hand, his voice tinged with grievance.

"But your husband is feeling very unwell. He's physically uncomfortable and also feels depressed."

Seeing his pale and aggrieved appearance, Jiang Xuange's heart softened. A hint of tenderness and shyness flashed in her eyes, and she softly replied.

"Hmm... then, my husband, don't move, just leave it to me..."

After speaking, she raised her hand to tuck her loose hair behind her ear, her cheeks flushed slightly, and slowly lowered her head, her movements gentle and careful.

......

Before the sun had even set, Xu Yi's head began to throb again, and a wave of fatigue washed over him. He prepared to lie down and go to sleep.

Seeing this, Su Qingluan and Jiang Xuange did not stop him, but silently stayed by his side, each doing what they were doing.

Xu Yi closed his eyes and quickly fell into the dream world.

At night, he opened his round eyes and looked at Shen Yunshu, who was sleeping with his arms around him.

Shen Yunshu's sleeping face was extremely beautiful. Her oval face had soft lines, her eyebrows were slightly furrowed, and her willow-leaf eyes were closed, making her look less aloof than usual.

Xu Yi stared at her face, silently thinking:

I haven't kissed my master enough times. Maybe I should kiss him a few times while I'm sleeping?

Although if he kissed Shen Yunshu now, she would definitely open her eyes, but she certainly wouldn't blame him.

So, just kiss it yourself.

Thinking this, Xu Yi leaned in and gently kissed Shen Yunshu's cherry lips. The soft touch made his eyes light up.

He secretly raised his eyes to observe Shen Yunshu, but saw that the other party was still sleeping peacefully with a calm face and no signs of waking up, which made him a little puzzled.

Unbeknownst to him, beneath the covers, Shen Yunshu's slender fingers were already tightly gripping the corner of the blanket.

Seeing that she didn't react, Xu Yi became bolder and leaned in to give Shen Yunshu a light kiss.

Her expression remained calm, as if she were completely unaware.

Xu Yi's eyes darted around; his master was pretending to be asleep and silent. He deliberately teased her.

"Master, I want to go and sleep with my uncle."

As she spoke, she twisted her little body, wanting to get out of bed and leave.

But Shen Yunshu held him tightly around the waist, her strength gentle yet impossible to break free, not letting him get off the bed even a step.

Xu Yi tilted his head and pretended not to understand.

"Didn't you say you respected my choices the most? Why can't I even sleep in my martial uncle's room?"

Shen Yunshu slowly opened her eyes, her willow-leaf eyes slightly moist, and a hint of barely perceptible grievance and panic hidden in her clear, cold eyes.

She remained silent for a long time, then parted her cherry lips slightly, her voice as soft as a feather.

"You... have never slept with Qingyao before, why... are you thinking of sleeping with her today?"

Xu Yi scratched his cheek, his tone somewhat willful.

"I don't know. I just want to sleep with her tonight. Will my master, who respects my thoughts and decisions the most, agree?"

Shen Yunshu lowered her eyes, her wet eyes looking at him, her brows and eyes full of humility, her voice so soft it was almost inaudible.

"agree."

Xu Yi pretended to be serious and struggled to get out of bed again.

"That's good. I'll go keep my martial uncle company now."

As he spoke, he struggled again, reaching out with his small hands to pry open the arm around his waist.

But Shen Yunshu's slender arms held him tightly, and no matter how he pushed, she wouldn't budge.

Xu Yi feigned doubt and spoke.

"Didn't Master already agree? Why are you still binding me so tightly?"

Shen Yunshu's voice carried a hint of clumsy sophistry, soft and light.

"Master...no...no force, Yi'er won't leave, okay...?"

Seeing his master's innocent and helpless expression, Xu Yi lost the will to tease her.

Sigh, how come Shen Yunliu is sometimes so naive and innocent, and other times...

He reached out and hugged Shen Yunshu's neck tightly, nuzzling his head against her cheek.

"Sigh, I was just teasing Master before. All I ever wanted to do was sleep with Master."

Upon hearing this, Shen Yunshu's tightly pursed lips relaxed slightly, the moisture in her eyes gradually dissipated, and she hugged him even tighter.

"Teasing Master again in the middle of the night..."

Xu Yi didn't know why, but he always liked to tease her for no reason.

Shen Yunshu can be a bit silly sometimes, which makes you want to tease him a little.
