Chapter 225 Yuqing Pool

June 15th.

Suitable for bathing, offering sacrifices, making stoves, and paving roads.

Avoid traveling, planting, and breaking the ground.

…

When the sun sets in the west, the gate of Jingyang Palace is knocked.

The three little ones, who have already prepared for the trip, open the door and go out.

Outside the door is a eunuch in flowery clothes, who is here to lead the way for them.

Emperor Yongyuan is also strange, and deliberately chose the time after dinner for them to go and take a bath.

Zhao Feng only told them the itinerary for today, but did not come to pick them up.

After all, today several princes and princesses are going to Yuqing Pool together. If Princess Ankang is given special treatment, it would be a bit inexplicable.

The carriage did not appear, so they could only walk there by themselves today.

But fortunately, Yuqing Pool is in the West Palace, and the distance is not too far.

"Your Highness, I am here to lead the way on the orders of General Manager Zhao."

Princess Ankang sat in a wheelchair, holding Li Xuan in her arms.

She smiled at the flowery eunuch, and then said politely: "Then I'll have to trouble you, eunuch."

"Your Highness is polite."

The flowery eunuch returned the greeting, and then walked in front to lead the way.

Yu'er pushed the wheelchair and followed behind him.

The weather today is a bit cold, especially after the sun sets.

There are a few thick dark clouds in the distance, and if they float over, they may bring a sudden rain.

After walking behind the flowery eunuch for half an hour, they finally saw the Jade Clear Pool from a distance.

It's not that they have sharp eyes, but that the place is too conspicuous.

The mist is constantly evaporating, and a small cloud has formed on the Jade Clear Pool.

And across the high courtyard wall, you can even see the corners of several rockery.

Going closer, the three big characters of Jade Clear Pool came into view.

[Jade Clear Pool]

At this time, the gate of Jade Clear Pool was closed, and several figures stood in front of the gate.

It was the eldest prince and his two siblings.

The three of them stood at the door waiting calmly, with several attendants waiting behind them.

Li Xuan thought they were the last to arrive, but he didn't expect that the eighth prince hadn't come yet.

"Old Eighth is slower than us in wheelchairs?"

Li Xuan couldn't help but twitch his lips.

On the other side, the eldest prince, seeing Princess Ankang coming, actually nodded to her proactively.

The fourth prince and the sixth princess did the same.

This surprised Princess Ankang, but she still followed in returning the greeting.

The three of them were brothers and sisters, and as a younger sister, Princess Ankang naturally couldn't just nod and followed, and made a more formal courtesy.

The flowery eunuch who led the way took Princess Ankang to the door of Yuqing Pool and then said goodbye and left.

Compared with the eldest prince and his friends, Princess Ankang's side was a little smaller, with only a palace maid and a cat, but this was already the entire staff of Jingyang Palace.

Princess Ankang looked around and found that there was no one in front of the gate of Yuqing Pool except them.

Just when she was ready to wait for a while, the gate of Yuqing Pool slowly opened.

This clever timing made the eldest prince and the other two frown.

The sixth princess looked directly at Princess Ankang, frowning and full of doubt in her eyes.

As the gate opened, a mist appeared in front of everyone.

"Your Highnesses, please follow me in."

A figure walked out slowly, it was Zhao Feng.

"General Manager Zhao, there are still people who haven't arrived yet, don't we have to wait?"

The eldest prince asked.

Zhao Feng shook his head.

"No..."

He just uttered a word here, and a noisy voice came from a distance.

"Haha, it's better to come at the right time than to come early!"

At the end of the road, the eighth prince ran over with his hair disheveled, and he was simply draped in a white robe, as if he had just climbed out of bed.

A sharp and loud cry came from the sky, and the Eighth Prince's Saker Falcon was swooping down.

When the Eighth Prince ran to the entrance of Yuqing Pool, the Saker Falcon landed on his outstretched shoulder.

"General Manager Zhao, am I not late?"

The Eighth Prince exhaled, and supported his knees with his free hand to give himself a break.

General Manager Zhao shook his head helplessly, but still said, "The time is just right."

"That's good, that's good."

The Eighth Prince said with a smile.

He naturally heard the implication of General Manager Zhao's words. If he was later, General Manager Zhao might not let him in.

Zhao Feng was too lazy to say anything more, and turned around to lead the way.

The others followed Zhao Feng into Yuqing Pool with their attendants.

The Eighth Prince looked back and found that his attendants showed no signs of following him, so he had to shrug and follow him in.

Li Xuan also never thought that there would be a smaller show than Princess Ankang today.

Looking at the appearance of the Eighth Prince, he can't even bring in a personal attendant.

He came all the way here, and he ran very fast, but the attendants were suffering, and they couldn't catch up with his speed.

It seems that the eighth prince will have to serve himself when he takes a bath later.

After entering the Yuqing Pool, Zhao Feng did not take them to take a bath immediately, but took a tour here first.

Zhao Feng briefly explained the functions of each hot spring pool.

After Zhao Feng's introduction, Li Xuan realized that this place is not just as simple as a royal bath.

Each hot spring pool has its own function, and relieving fatigue is only the most basic.

Li Xuan also saw that there is a blood pool inside, which is used to treat external injuries and has excellent effects.

But this blood pool is in a banned state.

It is also true that Emperor Yongyuan generally does not need this blood pool.

As for the other hot spring pools, they also have their own functions. Li Xuan listened absent-mindedly and just wanted to ask Zhao Feng where the Sun, Moon, Yin and Yang Pool is.

But after Zhao Feng took them around for a long time, Li Xuan did not hear the name.

At this time, Zhao Feng stopped and coughed dryly to attract everyone's attention.

"Your Highnesses, please remember the hot springs that I introduced earlier."

"Only these hot springs are open to you, Your Highnesses."

"There are several hot springs in the Yuqing Pool that are more dangerous. His Majesty specifically ordered that you, Your Highnesses, should not approach them."

After hearing this, several princes and princesses were a little surprised. They didn't expect that there would be dangerous hot springs in the Yuqing Pool.

But this aroused their curiosity even more.

"General Manager Zhao, what are those pools? Please tell us clearly so that we can avoid them."

The Eighth Prince asked slyly.

"Your Highness, the Eighth Prince, I am not joking."

"At that time, if I find any dangerous actions, according to His Majesty's orders, I can only ask you, Your Highnesses, to leave the Yuqing Pool."

Zhao Feng said seriously.

Seeing that Zhao Feng was serious, the Eighth Prince stopped mentioning the matter and shut up obediently.

Since no one had any more objections, Zhao Feng said to them:

"Next, please go to each hot spring pool according to your needs."

"But please remember that each hot spring pool is divided into men's and women's pools, so don't go to the wrong one."

Originally, Yuqing Pool did not distinguish between men's and women's pools, because Emperor Yongyuan used to take a bath there himself.

But today is different. It is the princes and princesses who use Yuqing Pool, so a distinction needs to be made.

After Zhao Feng explained the part that needed to be explained, he turned around and left. He did not make eye contact with Li Xuan during the whole process.

Li Xuan couldn't help thinking: "Do I have to find it myself?"

He always felt a little strange.

Emperor Yongyuan clearly invited them over, but did not let Zhao Feng mention the matter of Sun Moon Yin Yang Pool.

This matter was told to Li Xuan by General Manager Shang, and Emperor Yongyuan could not have been unaware of it.

Li Xuan also did not believe that General Manager Shang and Zhao Feng dared to make their own decisions without telling Emperor Yongyuan.

"Is there something else hidden here?"

For some reason, this bath today always makes people feel a little weird.

Zhao Feng just took them around here for a while, and then let them go to the hot spring pool they wanted to soak in.

He had a perfunctory attitude from beginning to end.

Even the eldest prince and his companions felt that today's trip to Yuqing Pool was very different from what they imagined.

The hot spring pools here do have rare effects, but that's the most.

For these princes and princesses, there is nothing special.

Apart from the honor of being able to soak in the same hot spring pool with Emperor Yongyuan, there seems to be nothing special.

This made the eldest prince think of what he had said to his mother before.

"Is there really another test?"

Whether it was Zhao Feng's attitude or the overly quiet Yuqing Pool, they all revealed something strange from inside to outside.

But now Zhao Feng had disappeared, and they couldn't ask anything.

But the eighth prince, seeing that Zhao Feng had left, immediately took action silently.

"Well, there seemed to be a very luxurious hot spring pool just now, let's go and take a look."

He didn't bring a close attendant in today, so he acted alone.

Seeing that the Eighth Prince had left, Princess Ankang also quietly discussed with Li Xuan and Yu'er.

"What do you mean?"

"Which hot spring pool should we go to?"

Yu'er suggested:

"Your Highness, Manager Zhao introduced a hot spring pool for warming up the body earlier. Why don't we go there and have a look?"

Yu'er knew that Princess Ankang always had a cold body, so she suggested this.

"Ah Xuan, what do you think?"

Li Xuan meowed and nodded.

But his eyes were fixed on the direction where Zhao Feng left.

"What's going on? Aren't we going to soak in the Sun Moon Yin Yang Pool?"

"Do they want me to find it myself and they don't care?"

Li Xuan couldn't figure it out no matter how hard he thought.

He planned to take a look first.

Zhao Feng didn't seem to mention the time they needed to leave before.

And at this time, the curfew outside is about to start.

It is likely that they will stay in Yuqing Pool tonight.

One night is enough for Li Xuan to figure out what is going on.

Yu'er pushed Princess Ankang to the warm-up bath introduced by Zhao Feng.

Gradually, only the eldest prince's three siblings and their respective attendants were left here.

"Brother, it seems that you are right."

The fourth prince said faintly.

The eldest prince nodded, but didn't say much.

"Brother, fourth brother, what is going on?"

The sixth princess asked in confusion.

"My father invited us to the Jade Clear Pool today, I'm afraid it's not just for a bath."

"I'm afraid there are other intentions in secret."

The eldest prince thought for a while, and then continued:

"Let's explore separately first, and then come back here to gather in half an hour."

"If there are no other discoveries, just take a bath with peace of mind."

"Of course, during this period, we have to send someone to keep an eye on Lao Ba and Ankang, maybe they will find something."

"We have the most attendants, maybe we can have some advantages."

The eldest prince looked at the Jade Clear Pool where the fog was gradually thickening, and felt that it was getting more and more interesting.

"It seems that this bath today can be a bit interesting."
