Chapter 1253: 23 Things About the Fake Emperor and the Powerful Officials

Yuan Chizhi was sitting in front of the window, holding a book in his hands, reading very attentively.

The surroundings are quiet, and there is a vague sense of peace and tranquility.

but!

This is her bedroom!

Shi Li felt the hairs all over her body stand up, and she couldn't imagine what had happened during the time she was unconscious.

"Your Majesty, drink the ginger and sugar water first."

Xie Qingyun's voice broke Shi Li's frozen brain.

She subconsciously stretched out her hand, only to notice that Xie Qingyun was still wearing riding clothes, holding an exquisite jade bowl in her hand, as if everything was normal.

"I...will take my leave first."

Xie Qingyun glanced at her, then looked at Yuan Chizhi who had put down his book and walked over, and retreated with a tactful look.

Seeing Yuan Chizhi getting closer, Shi Li no longer had time to care about Xie Qingyun. She held the jade bowl tightly, but did not notice that her fingers were trembling slightly.

After all, she was just an ordinary girl. It was impossible for her not to be scared when she was found out to be disguised as a man.

Yuan Chizhi approached and saw that her face was frighteningly pale. He sighed slightly in his heart, leaned down, and lowered his voice, which was surprisingly a little gentle.

"Your Majesty, drink the ginger sugar water first." After saying that, he looked at Shi Li holding the bowl to her mouth and added, "Be careful of the heat."

Is it hot or not? Yuan Chizhi spoke to her like this, making Shi Li feel like she had seen a ghost. Her mind was in a mess, and she subconsciously swallowed the hot ginger water in small sips, forgetting even the pain in her body.

Seeing that she was still at a loss, Yuan Chizhi spoke slowly while she was drinking ginger sugar water.

"People outside know that His Majesty fainted due to overwork today, but it's nothing serious. Apart from Xie Qingyun and I, no one else here knows the truth."

Shi Li drank ginger water with her eyelids lowered, but she paused when she heard these words.

After finishing a small bowl of ginger sugar water, she put down the empty bowl and looked at Yuan Chizhi with forced calmness, "How are you going to deal with me... me?"

The look of distrust and despair suddenly made Yuan Chizhi a little angry.

She was so trusting and protecting him in front of everyone the day before, how come she became like this in just one day?

He could understand Shi Li's fear, but it was impossible for him to empathize with Shi Li's current panic.

Yuan Chizhi was angry, but when he looked at Shi Li's pale face, his anger slowly dissipated.

He reached out to take the empty bowl and simply laid it on her, "Your Majesty's identity has long been known to me."

Shi Li opened her eyes wide again and looked at him in disbelief.

"I am well versed in medicine. I can tell whether it is a boy or a girl by taking her pulse." This was the first time that Yuan Chizhi was so patient and his words were very gentle.

Shi Li blinked.

My brain is now in a state of shutdown, and it is very slow to understand every sentence, especially what Yuan Chizhi is saying now, every sentence is full of information.

Yuan Chizhi was not in a hurry and waited patiently for her to recover.

After a while, Shi Li swallowed hard and spoke cautiously, "So, what should we do next?"

"Your Majesty is the king, and I am the minister."

Yuan Chizhi answered without any hesitation.

When Shi Li fainted just now, he actually thought a lot about what he was thinking. But if he told Shi Li about it now, she would probably be more scared, so Yuan Chizhi decided not to tell her anything else for now.

"You want me to be a puppet?" Shi Li pursed her lips, thinking that she must have guessed Yuan Chizhi's thoughts correctly. Her biggest secret was taken away, and she would definitely listen to whatever Yuan Chizhi said in the future.

The man who was always in control of everything froze for a moment, then smiled even more clearly.

"Your Majesty, so be it."

No matter how outsiders judged him, it couldn't anger him, but Shi Li could do it with just a few words.

The angrier Yuan Chizhi got, the bigger the smile on his face became. In order not to lose his composure again, he decisively stood up and took two steps back.

"Your Majesty, have a good rest. I will take my leave first."

After saying that, he turned around and left without staying for even a quarter of an hour.

Peace returned to the bedroom again, but the difference was that Shi Li could no longer be at peace.

"Family members! Help! The live broadcast has entered hell mode. Who can save me? Can I exit early?"

Shi Li raised her head and looked at the sky with a look of despair.

At this time, a barrage of comments passed by.

[Silly child, Yuan Chizhi is attracted to you. ]
