Chapter 29 Your Majesty, I will bathe you with scented soap!
"Sir, what should we do?"
Everyone in the Guanlong Group was looking at Changsun Wuji.
He is the representative, and his decisions are a matter of the group's reputation.
The fact that the Crown Prince was humiliated by Lin Chuan is tantamount to slapping them in the face.
Although Changsun Wuji was furious, he waved his hand dismissively.
Lin Chuan is very important to them, and they cannot afford to offend him now. For the sake of the bigger picture, they can only tolerate him.
However, he had to teach Changsun Chong a lesson to prevent him from causing more trouble.
……
East Market, Tea Shop.
Qin Huaidao and the others will not publicize his changes.
They were unwilling to admit that the incident was too shocking, and they would keep quiet about it.
This served as a warning to Lin Chuan.
He must tone down his brilliance.
The tallest tree catches the most wind; one should keep a low profile.
……
Ganlu Hall, Imperial Study.
When Li Er learned of this, he laughed.
"They can't target him anymore."
Li Er admired Lin Chuan, regarding him as his national advisor and confidant, and did not want him to be ostracized.
To ensure his safety, his talent must not be exposed, lest he be underestimated.
In hindsight, Li Er had worried unnecessarily.
The descendants of Cheng Yaojin and others have been punished.
……
Lizheng Hall.
Guanyinbi also smiled.
She was delighted that all the officials in the court had made a fool of themselves, and they had even considered impeaching her.
Comparing her to Zhao Ji is a great insult.
As the mistress of the harem, Guanyinbi was not allowed to interfere in court affairs, and with Emperor Taizong's policies restricting her, she was powerless to do anything about it.
Being taught a lesson by Lin Chuan is the punishment she deserves.
"Ready to go!"
Guanyin waved her hand, indicating that she had decided to leave the palace for the tea shop.
Inside the tea shop.
"This humble servant greets Your Majesty."
Lin Chuan saw Guanyinbi dressed in plain clothes and immediately got up to greet her.
In the side room.
Since her last experience with bone setting surgery, Guanyinbi has become obsessed with it.
This did alleviate her old ailment, and the pain was much less than before.
Lin Chuan explained with a serious expression that bone-setting techniques should not be used frequently, otherwise it would have the opposite effect.
These words made Guanyinbi show a disappointed expression.
"However, Your Majesty, I have recently invented a bath product that makes you feel comfortable all over and makes your skin smooth." .
Seeing her expression, Lin Chuan smiled and said.
He once used soapberry to make a bath gel from his past life, which he originally intended to give to Consort Yang. Now that Guanyinbi has arrived, it's just in time to use it.
"Does such a thing really exist?"
Guanyinbi immediately became curious and very interested.
But then she hesitated.
In ancient times, people had rules for bathing. They usually bathed once every three days and changed their clothes once every five days.
Now is not a good time to take a bath, and besides, she is the Empress. She can only bathe in the Yuhua Palace or Huaqing Pool, not in a wooden tub used by ordinary people.
"Does Your Majesty not believe me?" Lin Chuan asked directly.
He was a eunuch serving the emperor and believed he had considered everything thoroughly.
Moreover, this shower gel works very well; it would be a shame not to try it.
These words moved Guanyinbi, and since Lin Chuan had always satisfied her with his work, she immediately nodded in agreement.
Inside the side room.
Lin Chuan slowly poured the boiled water into the wooden tub, then quietly left.
"Your Majesty, the water is ready."
Guanyinbi immediately went inside.
After moving out of the Prince of Qin's mansion and becoming the mistress of the harem, this was the first time she bathed and changed clothes outside the palace.
This reminded her of the past.
Only she and Lin Chuan were in the tea shop; even the palace maids were guarding outside.
She doesn't need to worry about being seen.
Where is Lin Chuan?
Even if he had ten times the courage, he wouldn't dare to think such a thing!
"Splash—"
A moment later, the sound of water could be heard from the room.
"Ogawako, come in."
After a while, Guanyinbi's voice came out.
Lin Chuan agreed, and since he must have finished washing, he asked Lin Chuan to come in and help him get dressed.
"Clang—"
The door opened, and a pleasant scent of freshly bathed milk wafted out.
Guanyinbi, dressed in her undergarments, stood by the bed waiting for Lin Chuan to serve her.
"How is Your Highness?"
Lin Chuan walked over and asked with a smile.
He was very confident in this shower gel because there were very few bath products available in ancient times.
"good."
Guanyinbi said softly, a smile on her face.
This shower gel works really well; it leaves her feeling refreshed, her skin smooth, and it even smells nice.
"Thank you for your thoughtfulness. I am very satisfied."
After saying that, she glanced at Lin Chuan, intending to reward him.
Lin Chuan refused the reward, saying it was his honor to serve the Empress.
Then, he carefully dressed Guanyinbi in a loose long skirt and meticulously combed her hair.
"Don't move."
Guanyinbi was about to leave when she suddenly stopped, frowned, and said...
Although Lin Chuan didn't understand, he still did as instructed.
"Hmph, you and Consort Yang have a very close relationship, don't you?"
Guanyinbi approached Lin Chuan, sniffed his clothes, and said coldly.
"Whoosh—"
Lin Chuan's heart sank.
He immediately understood the reason: Guanyinbi smelled the lingering scent of Consort Yang on him.
After so long, she can still smell the traces?
Others might not notice, but she was extremely sensitive to Yang Guifei's scent.
At this moment, her face was gloomy.
Because she was determined to become Zhao Ji, she regarded Lin Chuan as her exclusive possession.
They cannot tolerate any impurities.
The fragrance left on the body is something that cannot be obtained through ordinary body conditioning.
"Your Majesty is overthinking it."
Lin Chuan quickly explained that it was accidentally spilled when he was bathing and changing Consort Yang.
He was utterly loyal to the Empress and had no intention of betraying her.
"Don't let me find out!"
Guanyin glanced at him disdainfully.
Lin Chuan secretly rejoiced, thinking that he must be more careful in the future.
If she discovers his affair with Consort Yang, the consequences will be severe.
After saying that, he turned and left the tea shop.
Lin Chuan was troubled and kept wondering what Guanyinbi was thinking.
I must be more careful and never make the same mistake again, otherwise all my years of hard work will be in vain.
For the next few days, no one visited the tea shop.
Lin Chuan focused on completing the sign-in task.
To improve his martial arts skills, he built a wooden house on the outskirts of the city for rest and practice.
Over time, his reputation spread.
The villagers nearby regarded him as a hermit, and they told him all sorts of amazing stories.
These rumors eventually reached Chang'an, causing a sensation throughout the city.
The morning court session is underway in the Taiji Hall.
The appearance of a reclusive master outside Chang'an City was the talk of the entire court.
After all, the villagers had described him in glowing terms.
I heard that he can kill a tiger with one punch and shoot a startled rabbit from a hundred paces away.
This shocked many military generals.
Lin Chuan weighed the options in his mind, then smiled bitterly, thinking that he might be able to barely manage it at his peak.
On the dragon throne.
When Li Er learned of this, he was thrilled. The appearance of such a genius in the Tang Dynasty was a blessing for the country!
He valued talent, and the court needed talented people.
Most of the generals who had fought alongside him for many years were now old and frail.
"My esteemed ministers, who will go and recruit that extraordinary person on my behalf?"
Li Er looked around at his ministers and said.
"Your Majesty, I am willing to go."
"Your Majesty, I am also willing to serve you."
The civil and military officials immediately stepped forward, all willing to go to the outskirts to find that wise man and persuade him to pledge allegiance to the Tang Dynasty.
"Good! Good! Good!"
"If we can recruit him, I will reward him handsomely!"
Li Er was overjoyed and immediately gave the order.
……
East Market, Tea Shop.
Lin Chuan was troubled by his widespread fame, but fortunately the villagers did not recognize him.
He had to find another place to live, because he deliberately chose the suburbs to avoid other people.
"Ogawako!"
Just then, a clear, crisp sound came from outside the door.
"It's Chang Le!"
Lin Chuan immediately became happy.
He always liked Chang Le; she was so adorable.
Moreover, Lin Chuan also knew that Chang Le liked him.
