Chapter 205: Intimate Friends, All at a Glance
Chapter 205: Intimate friends, all in sight
The bathroom was filled with hot air and mist.
Yan Lingshuang sat alone behind the screen, crossing her long and beautiful legs under her dragon robe, her cold and familiar face slightly flushed.
She raised her hand and rubbed her brows, feeling annoyed in her heart, wondering how she could be so confused. She
obviously only wanted to give a few compliments, but her heart was confused, her legs moved, and they entered the bathroom together as if possessed by ghosts.
Now she sits here stiffly, not knowing how Shifei will look at her.
Will he think that his aunt is too reckless?
”Huh——”
Yang Shifei sat in the bathtub, letting the hot water flow over his chest, his face slightly subtle.
The elders were sitting two feet away from the screen, and they were indeed not very comfortable.
Yan Lingshuang was feeling uneasy and had to speak first: “Shifei, how is the water temperature?”
”Uh, it’s pretty good.”
Looking at the graceful figure looming outside the screen, Yang Shifei laughed dryly: “Aunt Shuang, don’t you have to go?”
”You’ve been so busy today, I can’t just leave you alone.”
After starting to chat, Yan Lingshuang’s mood eased a little: “I’ve been sitting in the study all day, so it’s a good time to take a break and talk to you.”
”Aunt Shuang is also busy.”
Yang Shifei was also much calmer: “Is it going well after a busy day?”
”The biggest trouble has been solved by you, so everything else will go smoothly.”
Yan Lingshuang gradually revealed a smile: “Many people have been temporarily recruited from the county, and all parties are in order. Three more counties and five sects have received the news one after another and are sending people to come.
Although the spread of filth has caused many casualties, the granaries have not been affected much. I have ordered people to open the granaries and release grain to help the people survive this period of time.”
The empress talked eloquently and mentioned many measures taken today.
After listening for a while, Yang Shifei couldn’t help but give a thumbs up: “You are worthy of being the famous empress of Yan State. You are really wise and steady.”
Yan Lingshuang couldn’t help laughing: “No matter which emperor, he would act like this. I am not an exception.”
”I heard before that His Majesty the Yan Emperor is obsessed with martial arts and neglects state affairs. I thought Aunt Shuang was not good at this, but I didn’t expect to know it so well.”
The beautiful woman was a little embarrassed: “I was indeed a little careless before.”
Yang Shifei stroked his chin, and said with interest: “I guess the reason why Aunt Shuang gradually neglected state affairs is perhaps because she was tired of the intrigues of Prince Zhennan and others?”
”You”
Yan Lingshuang’s eyes were vague, and her hair was wrapped around her index finger several times.
”It’s not as good as you say. I’m not really a good emperor.”
”Now that I can save the people from the water and fire, I can be called a wise ruler.”
Yang Shifei said seriously: “I also want the new emperor of Liang to learn more from Aunt Shuang and gain more knowledge and skills.”
Yan Lingshuang blushed a little after being praised: “Okay, okay, stop praising me.”
”Okay, I’ll listen to Aunt Shuang.”
”You…”
Hearing a little smile in Yang Shifei’s tone, Yan Lingshuang couldn’t help shaking her head and laughing.
This kid, he has learned to be smooth-talking after getting closer to her. I don’t know how Xian’er is usually teased.
”By the way.”
Yang Shifei asked curiously: “What are Xian’er and the others doing now?”
”They are all staying in the house, helping me copy some documents.”
”That’s good.”
Yan Lingshuang couldn’t help but smile: “You still don’t want them to go out?”
Yang Shifei said helplessly: “Zonglin County is quite chaotic inside and outside, it’s better to go out less.”
Today’s round trip, what I saw along the way can be described as a scene of chaos. There are many people lying in the streets and alleys, all of whom are displaced people.
Even if order is gradually restored, it will obviously not be achieved in a day or two, and the chaos will last for some time.
”You are kind and gentle to women.”
Yan Lingshuang showed a bit of shame again.
Seeing the atmosphere suddenly darken, Yang Shifei’s mind moved, and he quickly comforted her: “You have done your best, don’t blame yourself too much. As long as you sit firmly on the throne, Yan State will slowly recover sooner or later.”
Yan Lingshuang gently stroked a tuft of snow-white hair on her chest and smiled elegantly: “You trust me.”
”I don’t think you have done anything wrong.”
Yang Shifei smiled: “Spend more time, and you will definitely be able to settle the current predicament.”
”Thank you for your good words.”
Yan Lingshuang’s expression was gentle, and she couldn’t help sighing in her heart.
Since Xian’er’s mother passed away, she has been on the throne for many years and has no second close friend. She only cares about Yan State and martial arts.
Now that she has encountered drastic changes, she just wants to bury her uneasiness deep in her heart as always, maintain the majesty of the empress, and calm the people of Yan State again.
But just a few words of casual conversation seemed to dissipate a lot of the depression in her heart.
Yan Lingshuang collected her thoughts and looked at the slender magic knife leaning against the screen:
”I didn’t ask you in detail before, where did you get this knife?”
She witnessed the mystery of this knife with her own eyes at that time, it was just like a living demon.
”It was obtained from a mausoleum.” Yang Shifei introduced with a smile: “It was forged by a small country hundreds of years ago. Before it recognized its master, it was sent to the mausoleum as a burial object. It was not until recently that it saw the light of day again.”
Yan Lingshuang picked up the magic knife and looked at it for a while, and couldn’t help but sigh in amazement.
The magic nature of this knife is something she has never seen in her life. If it can be well nurtured in the future, it is no less sharp than the holy weapon.
”Aunt Shuang, how is your physical condition today.”
Yang Shifei asked curiously again: “Do you feel uncomfortable?”
Yan Lingshuang put down the magic knife, and raised her snow-white eyebrows slightly: “I am concentrating on politics today, but I haven’t paid attention to my body.”
She slightly concentrated her perception and summoned a wisp of ice wind in her palm.
”It should be fine-”
Swoosh!
A cold wind suddenly blew in the bathroom, and the surroundings began to freeze.
Yan Lingshuang panicked and tried to hold back her right hand. But as soon as she clenched her right hand, ice crystals exploded with her as the center.
The screen was frosted and frozen, and the bathroom was in chaos.
Yan Lingshuang exhaled two breaths of cold air. She was not careful for a moment and almost got into trouble. Fortunately, she controlled it in time-
”Hiss!”
Yang Shifei jumped out of the bathtub almost at the same time. The bucket of hot water suddenly turned into ice water, which was really too “stimulating”.
Yan Lingshuang subconsciously heard the sound and looked over.
The screen just happened to shake and fall, and with a bang, there was no separation between the two.
”.”
In silence, Yan Lingshuang’s pupils trembled violently.
Yang Shifei quickly blocked with both hands, and sat back in the bucket of ice water with a smirk.
”Don’t”
Yan Lingshuang subconsciously wanted to step forward to stop him.
But she suddenly felt that this was not right, and turned her back with a red face: “Fei, the water is almost frozen, you should get up quickly.”
”Okay, I’ll change my clothes right away.”
Listening to the sound of water splashing behind her, Yan Lingshuang couldn’t help but close her eyes, her breathing was slightly disordered.
She finally understood why Fei didn’t even break Yue Rui’s body.
Judging from this size, compared with the petite figure of the girl, it might have gone straight to her stomach.
Yan Lingshuang’s face turned red, and her ears were a little hot.
How could this child be so scary? Can an ordinary woman really bear it?
After a while, Yang Fei changed her clothes and came over, a little embarrassed:
”Uh, Aunt Shuang.”
”I will practice this so-called power of the true form alone later.”
Yan Lingshuang whispered faintly without looking back: “It’s getting late today, Fei, you should go back to the room and rest early. If you are hungry, you can go to the kitchen to get some food.”
After that, the beautiful woman lowered her head and left the bathroom as if escaping, and her snow-white hair disappeared around the corner.
“.”
