Chapter 57 A Long-Awaited Wish Fulfilled
However, when she lit the oil lamp and looked around, she was surprised to find that there were many unfamiliar items in the room, and without exception, they were all men's items.
These items contrasted sharply with the women's items she was used to, which made her wonder. Who could have placed these things here? Just as she was frowning and racking her brains, the sound of running water suddenly reached her ears.
The sound, like a clear spring flowing by, broke the tranquility of the room.
Gu Liuli looked in the direction of the sound and saw a thin layer of mist filling the room, making the whole space hazy and dreamlike, like a fairyland.
As she drew closer to the source of the sound, a warm, humid scent wafted towards her, mixed with a faint aroma of sandalwood, which was refreshing and invigorating.
When her gaze inadvertently swept over the exquisite screen, the sight before her left her speechless.
Through the thin gauze curtains, one could vaguely see a tall, upright figure bathing. The flickering candlelight and shimmering steam illuminated the man's slender, robust silhouette.
Xiao Jingchuan's broad, solid shoulders had smooth, natural lines, like a meticulously sculpted work of art.
Crystal-clear water droplets slid slowly down his taut muscles, disappearing into the water and creating tiny ripples, as dazzling and spectacular as fireworks blooming in the night sky.
Gu Liuli's eyes widened at that moment, as if two dazzling gems were set on her delicate face.
A flush of burning crimson instantly spread across her cheeks, as vibrant and beautiful as the burning sunset. At that moment, her heart pounded wildly in her chest like a startled fawn, as if it might break free and burst from her confinement at any moment.
On instinct, she turned around, wanting to escape this awkward situation as quickly as possible.
However, due to excessive tension and panic, her feet seemed to lose control, and she staggered, nearly falling to the ground.
"Who is it?" Xiao Jingchuan's deep, slightly wary voice came from behind the screen.
Gu Liuli slightly opened her cherry-like lips, but her throat felt as if it were blocked by an invisible wad of cotton, making it difficult for her to utter a complete sentence. She could only manage to squeeze out a single word: "I..."
At this moment, Xiao Jingchuan, who had been waiting quietly, heard that familiar yet slightly hesitant voice. A subtle, sly smile, like that of a fox, revealed himself.
He teased softly, "My wife, won't you wipe your husband's back? Are you afraid and that's why you don't dare to come over?" As he spoke, he deliberately turned to the side, showing his broad and sturdy back to Gu Liuli.
The clever and quick-witted Gu Liuli naturally saw through Xiao Jingchuan's little scheme at a glance, but how could she easily admit defeat? She simply raised an eyebrow, and her lips parted slightly...
She coquettishly said, mimicking the manner of a female hooligan, "Heh! You are my husband, what do I have to be afraid of? It's just rubbing my back, what's the big deal! Come on! Do you think I'm afraid of you?" Before she finished speaking, she walked gracefully towards Xiao Jingchuan with lotus-like steps.
However, just as Gu Liuli was about to reach the bathtub, there was a loud "plop" and water splashed everywhere, like silver beads falling into a plate.
It turned out that the cunning Xiao Jingchuan took advantage of her unpreparedness, suddenly reached out and pulled the unsuspecting Gu Liuli directly into the steaming bathtub.
Caught off guard, Gu Liuli fell into the water, instantly becoming soaked. In her panic, she instinctively reached out and groped around, trying to grab onto something to steady herself.
Fortunately, she managed to grab onto something with her right hand and stand up from the pool. At the same time, she hurriedly wiped the water running down her face with her other hand so that she could see the situation in front of her.
"Hiss!" A low, restrained sound suddenly came from Xiao Jingchuan's throat, as if it were squeezed out from between his teeth.
Gu Liuli was startled and quickly let go!
At that moment, the whole world seemed to freeze, with only the aura between the two of them lingering in the air.
Their cheeks drew closer and closer, each feeling the other's warm breath gently brush against their faces, sending a tingling sensation through them. Time seemed to stand still, and everything became so slow and beautiful.
In the end, Xiao Jingchuan and Gu Liuli's penises gently touched each other, like two soft flower petals nestled together.
The kiss was tender and lingering, filled with their deep love for each other.
Meanwhile, in another small house, completely different from theirs, a bustling scene unfolded.
The room was brightly lit and bustling with people.
A group of people were sitting together, their expressions serious and focused. Leading them was Yan Xiaohan, who was earnestly explaining the seeds to her subordinates and detailing the plans for the next day.
"Tomorrow we will take action in batches, leading the people to cultivate the land and sow these precious seeds."
"We must ensure that every step is done correctly so that everyone can successfully complete the planting task." Yan Xiaohan's tone was firm and powerful, and his eyes revealed a kind of decisiveness and resolve.
Everyone nodded, indicating that they would definitely follow his instructions.
They then discussed some potential problems and developed corresponding solutions.
This small room is filled with a tense yet orderly working atmosphere.
Everyone had their own things to do that night, and everyone drifted off to sleep with sweet smiles. Meanwhile, the emperor of Xijing Kingdom was about to arrive near Ningguta with an army of 100,000.
In the early morning, warm sunlight streamed through the window and illuminated the entire room.
On the bed, Gu Liuli was curled up in the soft quilt like an adorable little lazy cat, sleeping soundly.
Her long eyelashes gently covered her closed eyes, and her breathing was steady and even, as if she were having a sweet dream.
Meanwhile, Xiao Jingchuan had already gotten up and quickly dressed. He stood tall and his handsome face revealed a hint of coldness and authority.
Just then, a nimble bodyguard dressed in black night clothes, Yueying, silently appeared in the room.
Yueying's expression was unusually serious. He lowered his voice and reported to Xiao Jingchuan, "Your Highness, I have just received important intelligence. Emperor Jiang Liushen of Xijing Kingdom is leading an army of 100,000 men and is aggressively attacking our side. According to reliable sources, it seems that they have realized the immense power of our crossbows."
Xiao Jingchuan frowned slightly, a thoughtful look flashing in his eyes.
He knew that Emperor Jiang Liushen of Xijing Kingdom was also a person who was extremely obsessed with weapons, and if effective countermeasures were not taken, this war would probably become very difficult.
After a moment, he calmly said, "I understand. You may leave now. Keep a close eye on the enemy's movements and report any new developments immediately." Yueying respectfully acknowledged and then vanished from the spot as quickly as she had arrived.
Meanwhile, deep within the palace of the distant Nanzhao Kingdom, Xiao Han, holding two precious antidote pills, hurriedly headed towards the Cold Palace.
The moment he stepped into the Cold Palace, he was surprised to find that the Empress Dowager was also there.
The Empress Dowager held Mu Qingling's hand tightly, her face full of affection, and said, "Qingling, come and try this. This is corn porridge that I specially ordered the imperial kitchen to carefully prepare!" The Empress Dowager didn't even spare a glance for Xiao Han, who was standing to the side.
"Qingling, come and try this. This is corn porridge that I had the Imperial Kitchen make!"
