Chapter 56
Li Yu had a fever, but he didn’t fall asleep again. He just didn’t have much strength. King Jing carried him all the way to the imperial doctor. He didn’t even wait for the imperial doctor to come over. Li Yu was moved, but at the same time, he was horrified. It turned out that he, a man, can also be carried in and out like this.
Oh, isn’t this the princess carry that he sneered at the most when he read novels before?
But he has already boarded the “pirate ship”. He was weak all over, so he can’t help it.
Eunuch Wang and so many guards stared at him with burning eyes. Li Yu’s confused and numb brain tried to think of a way, but he couldn’t think of anything. So, he simply turned his face away.
He was not used to it, but he couldn’t resist such an embrace. He put his whole body weight on the person holding him little by little. He breathed a long sigh of relief. His heart also relaxed a lot.
He leaned on the person until he was no longer nervous.
He doesn’t know if he found someone he can rely on. Although the symptoms of the high fever were still uncomfortable, it was no longer so unbearable.
Just now, he was a little afraid that he will die. But now, he can even distract himself to observe the reactions of others. Li Yu felt that his illness will be cured.
King Jing’s Mansion.
Imperial Doctor Xu hasn’t left yet, but King Jing suddenly came to him with a young boy in his arms. He looked anxious. Imperial Doctor Xu couldn’t treat Yu Yu. He always felt ashamed to face King Jing. But now, he can treat someone else. Imperial Doctor Xu hurriedly helped King Jing put down the patient, took out the medical box on his back, and checked the pulse of the sick young boy.
After checking the pulse, Imperial Doctor Xu looked at the young boy’s pale face again. He thought that if he could check his throat again, he would have a better chance. But the young boy fainted, so it was inconvenient. Imperial Doctor Xu was about to ask King Jing to help open the young boy’s mouth. But the young boy, who was still sleeping, suddenly opened his black eyes.
“Imperial Doctor, I accidentally soaked in the water for a while.”
Li Yu whispered in a hoarse voice. He knew the cause of his illness. He was afraid that if he fell asleep for a while, it would delay the diagnosis. So, he quickly “woke up” and told the imperial doctor.
Imperial Doctor Xu, who has never seen a patient take the initiative: “… …”
Imperial Doctor Xu couldn’t help but curve his lips: “This young master is indeed suffering from a cold. His high fever hasn’t subsided, but his spirit is still good. From this, it can be inferred that although his condition is aggressive, his life shouldn’t be in danger, but he still needs to be taken care of carefully.”
Imperial Doctor Xu had a plan in his heart, so he quickly wrote down the prescription. King Jing ordered Wang Xi to decoct the medicine. The original house has been cleaned up again. King Jing returned with Li Yu and stubbornly hugged Li Yu all the way.
Li Yu had completely lost her temper after being hugged.
King Jing placed Li Yu on the bed and wanted to change his clothes. But Li Yu widened his eyes and shook his head desperately. After a while, he felt a little dizzy. King Jing was helpless. He didn’t want to continue to make him uncomfortable, so he no longer insisted on changing his clothes. Imperial Doctor Xu told him not to catch a cold again in the next few days. King Jing turned around and found a brocade quilt with green patterns and golden edges to wrap Li Yu tightly.
Li Yu was wrapped like a spring roll. He was still muttering in his heart. Why does King Jing know that he likes green quilts?
However, his brain has been burned into a paste. Even if he felt suspicious, he couldn’t think of anything for the time being.
Wang Xi trotted into the room with the decocted medicine. Before he could put down the medicine bowl, King Jing stretched out his long arm and grabbed the medicine bowl.
Wang Xi’s eyelids twitched. He stepped forward and handed over a silver spoon. King Jing glanced at Wang Xi. Eunuch Wang immediately understood and said, “Your Royal Highness, this old slave will still guard outside. Your Royal Highness, please take care of Young Master Li.”
King Jing nodded his head, so Wang Xi sent him out to guard the door. Li Yu was a little dizzy after shaking his head. Unconsciously, he fell asleep for a while. Suddenly, he felt something touching his face.
Li Yu struggled to wake up. He saw a tall young man standing at the head of the bed, holding a small jade bowl in his hand. His eyebrows were full of confusion. It seems that he didn’t know what to do with this bowl of medicine. He didn’t have the domineering aura he had when he snatched the medicine.
Li Yu even wanted to laugh, but he held back: “Your Royal Highness, is it time to drink the medicine?”
He didn’t know how long his transformation could last.
King Jing nodded his head with a stiff face. Li Yu raised his arm to sit up. King Jing paused. He sensed his intention and supported him before he could exert himself. Li Yu sighed in his heart. He didn’t struggle with King Jing anymore. Instead, he let King Jing support him.
There was a soft cushion on the bed. King Jing took it and gently put it behind Li Yu’s waist.
Li Yu leaned against the soft pillow and whispered: “Thank you, Your Royal Highness … Give me the bowl of medicine. I can do it myself.”
Li Yu stretched out his hand to take the bowl of medicine.
King Jing understood what Li Yu meant. But how could he drink the medicine himself when he was sick?
King Jing was also sick when he was young. In his memory, it was Wang Xi who fed him the medicine spoonful by spoonful. King Jing knew very well that he should be the one feeding Xiaoyu at this time. However, Xiaoyu seemed to be resisting him. If he directly handed the bowl of medicine to him …
The medicine had just been boiled and was still hot. It would be inconvenient for Xiaoyu to be sick.
King Jing shook his head and decisively rejected Li Yu’s request. He scooped up a spoonful of medicine with a silver spoon and gently blew some of the heat away.
He was afraid that Li Yu was still angry, so he didn’t sit on the edge of the bed directly. Instead, he blew on the medicine to cool it down and bent down to deliver it to Li Yu’s lips.
Li Yu: “…”
Li Yu finally understood how stubborn this person was. He was afraid that if he didn’t drink the medicine, this person would continue to stand there with his back bent.
It was better to drink it.
Li Yu lowered his eyes and licked the medicine. Instantly, his face scrunched up from the bitter taste.
Seeing this, King Jing put down the bowl of medicine and took out a piece of peach blossom cake from the jade box. He broke it into pieces and spread it out on his palm before delivering it to Xiaoyu.
King Jing nodded at Li Yu with his chin.
Li Yu: “…”
He was probably telling him to eat something sweet after drinking the medicine.
But wasn’t this his way of taking care of people?! How did this jerk learn it?!
Li Yu glared at King Jing and refused to eat it. However, the medicine was too bitter. After a few sips, Li Yu gave in. He accepted his fate and took a few pieces of peach blossom cake from King Jing’s hand before stuffing them into his mouth.
King Jing didn’t do anything other than feed him the medicine time and time again and remind him to eat the cake.
Li Yu finally finished drinking the bitter medicine. King Jing took out a clean handkerchief. Li Yu cautiously took it and wiped his mouth before he approached. King Jing remained silent and handed him a note.
Li Yu was very worried about what to do if he saw another Xinyue. He was mentally exhausted.
Although King Jing treated him really well and King Jing carried him everywhere to seek medical treatment, he still felt touched.
When he suddenly fell ill, it was King Jing who didn’t care about his previous bad attitude and saved him. He still treated King Jing coldly, but King Jing took care of him in every possible way and wasn’t affected by his temper at all.
Li Yu was even a little curious about how far this person could go for him …
When he found out that King Jing liked him, he was shocked and panicked. There was also anger towards the system. These intense emotions made him lose his mind.
He had been throwing tantrums for too long. He had been venting his anger, throwing tantrums, and even made himself seriously ill. When he lay weakly on the bed, he finally had to calm down and think about it carefully. Only then did he realize that he had been too ridiculous.
King Jing liked him because of a freak combination of factors. Could he blame King Jing for this?
No, he couldn’t. If he really wanted to think about it, King Jing was also affected by the system. He was innocent.
He kept resisting and resisting. He kept saying that he hated this bastard, but when he asked himself, how much did he really hate him?
When King Jing used Chu Yanyu to force him to meet him, was he angry at King Jing for using underhanded means?
No, if he had been a little more clear-headed, he would have realized that the methods used by the people in the palace were sloppy and common. King Jing had always been such a person. He was more angry that his care had been betrayed than that King Jing had deceived him.
And if he had to say who the biggest liar was, wasn’t he, who was protected by King Jing?
The identity was fake. The fish was fake. Everything was fake. How many times had he lied to King Jing? He was often full of lies. Whether it was for the sake of the mission or for other purposes, he had told many lies. If he couldn’t do anything wrong, why should he be so agitated and criticize others just to vent his dissatisfaction?
After all, he had suffered too many blows in succession and couldn’t control his sadness. It was said that when one didn’t calm down, one would often regret it. Li Yu felt that he should calm down for a while, then see what he should do and what King Jing should do.
Li Yu didn’t open the note. King Jing seemed to see through him and patted the back of his hand to encourage him.
Li Yu found that, putting all his emotions aside, King Jing could always calm him down quickly.
Li Yu didn’t hesitate and opened the note. It said, “Rest well.”
Li Yu didn’t know what to say.
Li Yu’s eyes were filled with tears again. She nodded subtly.
King Jing rubbed his head, helped him lie down, and tucked him in.
*Your Highness, can you … leave me alone for a while?” Li Yu pleaded.
King Jing had expected this and had been looking for a doctor to feed him medicine. He knew that two hours were coming and Xiao Yu would most likely change back.
He had already thought about Xiao Yu’s identity. If Xiao Yu still didn’t want him to know, he would pretend not to know.
King Jing responded to Li Yu’s request and took the bowl of medicine to leave the room. Li Yu, who was on the bed, bit his lip.
He asked King Jing to leave because the time for his transformation was almost up. But if he sent him away like this, would King Jing still think that he was angry?
Actually, he wasn’t angry anymore.
While he kept throwing tantrums, King Jing still did his best to help him. All of his anger disappeared without a trace.
It was better not to be angry. It was too hard and tiring to be angry. It would harm others and himself.
This illness was an illness to his body, but it was also a cure for his emotions.
“Your Highness, I … I’ve taken the medicine and I feel much better. Please don’t worry. It’s just that I have something very important to do and I can’t stay in this room forever. But i’ll come back tomorrow and I won’t run away anymore. So … Your Highness, can you still come and see me tomorrow?”
Li Yu’s face was a little red after he finished speaking. He, he, he wanted to apologize. His attitude towards King Jing was also very bad and he hoped that King Jing wouldn’t take it to heart. But why did the words come out …
He hoped that King Jing would accompany him for a while?
Li Yu: Oh, why is my mouth so disobedient? It must be because I’m sick!
King Jing was stunned for a moment and turned around in disbelief. Li Yu quickly hid his head under the blanket and pretended that he didn’t say anything.
King Jing saw a strand of hair sticking out of the blanket and smiled happily and closed the door for him.
