Chapter 111: So Lucky to Have You with Me (I)
Translator: Storm in a Teacup
Two days later, herbs from other places were sent to the palace.
Then, Long began to take medicated baths every day, once in the morning, once at noon, and once in the evening.
This kind of medicated bath was definitely not as enjoyable as ordinary bath, because the patient would feel pain during the process.
The acupuncture was also needed at the same time, which would hurt a lot.
Therefore, the acupuncture and baths three times a day caused Long so much pain that he always looked pale and almost couldn’t hang on.
Shi was very worried about him. How he wished that he could suffer that for his lover.
What happened by the lake was because he was not alert enough. As a result, Long was shot by concealed weapons, but he himself was totally fine.
Shi felt very guilty deep inside, but he never said it.
Because he knew that if he said that, Long would only feel worse.
So, Shi kept the feelings of guilt in his heart.
After acupuncture, Long was carried out of the tub by Shi.
Seeing that Shi held him in his arms, Long blinked, and blinked again.
Shi put Long on bed and it was already night.
After wiping Long’s body, Shi helped Long put on his pajamas.
Long didn’t stop Shi to do anything. After that, Shi went to take a bath quickly and then went to bed.
Long was able to move a little. He could speak and his head could move, but his limbs were still stiff.
“Qingzhou, you’re finished?” Long could only speak slowly because of the poison.
Shi nodded, “Yes, I’m done. Would you like some water?”
Long shook his head. “No, I’m not thirsty.”
Shi smiled and lay down beside Long.
Long turned his head. “Qingzhou, you didn’t wash hair?”
Shi shook his head. “No. I’ll do it tomorrow.”
“Oh,” Long answered, “Qingzhou.”
“Hmm?” Shi turned to Long. “What?”
Long smiled. “I feel like a vegetable now.”
“Vegetable? What do you mean?”
Long explained the meaning to Shi with a smile.
Shi thought it was interesting. “Well, you’re a little bit like that.”
Long turned to look at Shi. “Give me a hug.”
Shi raised his eyebrows, and then held Long’s waist as Long wished.
Long smiled. “I like it.”
Shi found that Long became so childish after being poisoned.
However, he was also very lovely.
Lovely? Shi was stunned. He wondered why he thought of using this word to describe Long. That wasn’t appropriate.
Long was the emperor of a nation! How could he be... lovely?
Long blinked, enjoying Shi’s embrace.
Another two days later, Long could finally move his limbs and was able to walk with the help of Shi.
This day, just after the medicated bath at noon, Shi Qingshan asked for a meeting.
Long allowed him in.
“Greetings, Your Majesty. Long live Your Majesty.”
The first thing that Shi Qingshan did naturally was to greet the emperor.
Long hurriedly said, “Please get up. Don’t be so formal, father-in-law.”
Shi Qingshan didn’t say anything.
Shi Qingzhou smiled and then walked up to help his father up.
“Father, there is no outsider here. Please stand up.”
Shi Qingshan glanced at Long. Seeing that Long had no objection and was not unhappy at all, he stood up.
“Your Majesty.” Shi Qingshan began to report the business.
“Hmm? The Northern Barbarians are causing trouble again?” Long raised his eyebrows. “Their envoys are still here... Yet they’ve started making trouble so soon? Humph!”
Shi also became serious.
Long curled his lips. “We’ve hushed up my condition and few outsiders knew that I’m recovering gradually. It seems that the information deliberately released is very useful. Look, some people already can’t wait to make their move, right?”
Shi Qingshan paused, and then said, “Your Majesty, the ministers who know that you’re recovering...”
“Just several of them know,” Long said, “What’s the situation in the court now?”
Shi Qingshan said, “It’s the same as before and ministers always complain. But with me there, there is no big problem.”
Long nodded. “General Shi, you plan to go back to the border?”
“Yes, I think it’s better to suppress them before they dare do anything serious.”
“That’s right.” Long looked at Shi. “What do you think, Qingzhou?”
“With father there, it is indeed the best deterrent at the border,” Shi said slowly.
“Right.” Long nodded. “General Shi, you can go to the border. Since we have come back, we also don’t need you here. It’s a pity that we only attracted some killers this time and didn’t find anything suspicious in the court.”
Shi Qingshan also felt it was a shame.
“General Shi, please take back your troops, but don’t make it public,” Long said again.
Shi Qingshan nodded. “I understand.”
After talking about things at the border for a while, Shi Qingshan left.
Shi Qingzhou sent his father out. At the door, he said, “Mother doesn’t know about this, does she?”
“Yes, I’ll tell her later.”
Shi Qingzhou said gently, “Father, take care of yourself on the way to the border.”
Shi Qingshan smiled and said in a low voice, “Where is Mr. Xu?”
Shi Qingzhou smiled. “He’s in the Tianyin post. He is the lover of the young master there.”
Shi Qingshan was surprised to hear that. “What?”
Shi Qingzhou smiled. “Yes.”
Shi Qingshan glanced at the room inside significantly and then asked, “Son, how are you doing with the emperor?”
“Father, we’re fine. He... I’m the only one in his heart,” Shi said.
