Chapter 95
Most people didn’t dare to disturb King Jing’s wedding, except for Ye Qinghuan, who wasn’t an ordinary person.
The guests were arranged by Wang Xi. After they drank a few more cups of wine, they left early. Only Ye Qinghuan went to the bridal chamber.
“Heir Apparent, do you want to be dragged out by His Highness again?” Wang Xi stopped him with a smile.
King Jing had ordered that no one was allowed to get close to the bridal chamber. Even if Wang Xi wanted to make trouble, he couldn’t help.
“There’s a ‘Quan Ju De’ in town. It’s a roast duck shop that His Highness opened for the princess consort. Today is a big day, so you can eat as much as you want. If Heir Apparent feels bored, you can go there.”
Wang Xi even arranged a place for Ye Qinghuan to go.
Ye Qinghuan originally wanted to eavesdrop so that he could make fun of King Jing some other day. Who knew that he would be stopped by Wang Xi and forced to show off for his master. Ye Qinghuan was too embarrassed to stay any longer.
The red candles in the room had gone out, so there shouldn’t be any more excitement. Roast duck sounded pretty good ~
Ye Qinghuan was thinking when the door was suddenly opened from the inside. King Jing, bare-chested and wrapped something in clothes, hurried out and bumped into Wang Xi and Ye Qinghuan.
King Jing nodded calmly. He did not look away as he protected the things in his arms and strode into the house next door.
Ye Qinghuan and Wang Xi: “…”
Ye Qinghuan’s eyesight wasn’t bad. He caught a glimpse of a small fish tail in King Jing’s clothes.
It was the tail of King Jing’s favorite fish. It was silver with a hint of gold. Ye Qinghuan had a deep impression of it and definitely recognized it.
What happened just now?
Ye Qinghuan was stunned. After a while, he stuttered and asked Wang Xi, “Eunuch Wang, King Jing, he …”
How could he run out with a fish on his wedding night? Moreover, his clothes were disheveled?!
Wang Xi was also very shocked, but Eunuch Wang was obviously more experienced than Ye Qinghuan. In his eyes, His Highness was always right. Wang Xi quickly reacted and said, “Heir Apparent, His Highness likes to do this.”
Ye Qinghuan: “…”
What does that mean?
King Jing actually … had that kind of fetish!
For a moment, Ye Qinghuan didn’t know whether to sympathize with Consort Jing or the fish in Prince Jing’s hands.
Li Yu hid in King Jing’s arms and didn’t dare to poke his head out. It wasn’t the first time that King Jing took care of him when he turned into a fish. Li Yu wasn’t worried at all. Because it was their wedding night, they didn’t worry too much after the baby fish fell asleep. It was only when they turned back into fish that they realized there was no fish tank in the bridal chamber. Wang Xi was also kind. When he was decorating the bridal chamber, he was afraid that the two masters would accidentally bump into each other when they were drunk, so he temporarily moved the fish tank next door. Because of the great joy, Li Yu and King Jing’s attention was glued to each other and didn’t realize it in advance …
It was only after Li Yu transformed back that she realized something was wrong. Prince Jing could roughly guess where the fish tank had been moved to, so he hurriedly brought Li Yu out to search for it. This chaotic wedding night could be said to be unprecedented.
King Jing moved very quickly. He didn’t want to disturb anyone, but who knew that he would unexpectedly meet Ye Qinghuan and Wang Xi midway.
Li Yu took a deep breath. Fortunately, those two didn’t know anything. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to face anyone as a princess!
King Jing placed Li Yu in the fish tank. While waiting for him to turn back into a human, Li Yu began to consider whether he should take the initiative to ask the system when he could completely end this changeable life.
The baby fish could at least remain unchanged for a few years when they turned back into humans. It didn’t make sense for him, the fish father, to always be on tenterhooks, afraid that his identity would be exposed, right?
Since the baby fish “grew up,” the fish-trapping system seemed to have disappeared without a trace. The follow-up storyline had been delayed for a long time.
Li Yu was well taken care of by King Jing. His life was very comfortable. Sometimes, he couldn’t help but think that it wasn’t bad to live like this. But after experiencing this frightening experience, he wanted to completely turn back into a human.
But right now, he still had to wait until he finished his nuptial night.
In any case, there were still a few children sleeping in the bridal chamber. It wouldn’t be a bad idea to change his position …
King Jing and his princess consort’s wedding night ended up being spent next door to the bridal chamber.
The next morning, Li Yu spread out a fish cake on the silver stone bed. King Jing prepared his favorite food for him and wrapped him in a seaweed quilt. Feeling refreshed, he went to see the baby fish.
As the man with the highest status in the western border, King Jing not only gave himself a wedding leave, but also gave the commoners a holiday to celebrate.
Who knew that when he went out and turned left, he would see Ye Shizi, who had dark circles under his eyes.
Ye Qinghuan inadvertently discovered King Jing’s secret. He went to Quanju and ate three roast ducks, but he didn’t feel better. When he returned, he found that King Jing still hadn’t returned to the bridal chamber. Ye Qinghuan became more and more worried.
Li Yu was his friend, and King Jing was his cousin. Duke Chengen wanted to follow him. Logically, Ye Qinghuan naturally knew who he should help.
But emotionally, he couldn’t ignore it.
“It wasn’t easy for you to get married to Young Master Li. Don’t let him down!”
Ye Qinghuan left these words and turned to leave.
King Jing:?
King Jing couldn’t figure out what was going on, so he simply ignored him.
After a while, Wang Xi came over. He wanted to say something to King Jing, but he hesitated.
“Your Highness, this old servant only has one thing to say. You … you have to treat Princess Consort well in the future.”
King Jing: … …
Li Yu, the fish cake, seized the time to enter the system after he had enough sleep.
Last night, he vaguely heard the system’s voice, but he wasn’t sure.
The system always liked to refresh the notification when he was “very busy.”
Come to think of it, he had not been to the spiritual world for a while. The last time he entered was to collect the reward for “growing up”. Coincidentally, at that time, he was worried about how to explain the whereabouts of the luo fish to Eunuch Wang and the others now that the four little fish had “disappeared” together, and he had “given birth” to four children. Would it arouse suspicion?
Fortunately, the system’s mission reward was a fish pillow corresponding to the four little fish, which was a great help to him.
The little fish were now fish with pillows. Li Yu racked his brains. With King Jing’s help, he filled the mouth and tail of the little fish’s pillows with magnets. He also filled the tail of his own pillow with magnets. In this way, all the fish pillows could be connected into a string, exactly the same as when he played with the little fish.
Although the system was very deceptive most of the time, it was still quite reliable in certain details.
It was thanks to the system that he transmigrated into a fish and was forced to do all kinds of missions. However, it was also thanks to the system that he found his other half in the book.
Li Yu used to hate the system, but now it was hard to describe how he felt.
He checked the main mission as usual and found that a new mission had lit up.
It seemed that there was really a notification last night. After all, he had become a husband that even the Emperor recognized. Their relationship had reached another level. The new main mission finally refreshed. The next main mission was —
“Fish’s Postpartum Care.”
Li Yu, who felt embarrassed, was speechless.
In the past, he at most thought that the mission name was very strange. Now that he even gave birth to the little fish, postpartum care was nothing.
Right, so he was considered “postpartum”, right?
Li Yu calmly checked the details of the main mission.
According to the system’s nature, it must be divided into several steps. You thought there was only one mission, but in fact, there were several missions related to one mission.
This main mission … Wait, Li Yu suddenly found that there were two steps below the main mission that were already completed!
The first step of postpartum care: hatching fish eggs, completed. Reward waiting to be received.
The second step of postpartum care: feeding the little fish, completed. Reward waiting to be received.
Li Yu thought for a while. Weren’t these two steps when he and King Jing just started to learn how to raise the little fish? He remembered that the main mission was still in judgment at that time, so there was no movement.
The system explained, “The relationship between the host and Tyrant has become inseparable after the wedding, reaching the condition to enter the next main mission — ‘postpartum care’. This main mission is different from other main missions. The main executor is Tyrant. When the first two steps were carried out, although the main mission had not yet started, the positive impact on the little fish was still there. Therefore, the system determined that it was completed.”
Li Yu understood. “Postpartum care” was King Jing’s main mission. He was only responsible for lying down like a salted fish. After all, he and the little fish were the ones being cared for.
King Jing was indeed worthy of the male lead halo. He completed two tasks at once.
Li Yu curiously asked, “What’s the reward for these two steps? If the executor becomes King Jing, will the reward also be given to King Jing?
But he should not be lacking anything except for him, the fish. ”
The system said, “The reward will still be given to the host. The reward for each step is a secret of Tyrant.”
Li Yu, “…”
It was a secret again. Li Yu was not in a hurry to receive it. It was better to save it first in case it was useful in the future.
Compared to King Jing’s secret, he was more concerned about how to become a real person. He took the initiative to ask, “This is already the third main mission. When can I completely become a human?”
The system immediately popped up a notification, “The third step of the ‘postpartum care’ main mission is time-limited task ‘Protect the Pet Fish’. The reward is to regain the human form. Does the host want to start?”
Li Yu was overjoyed. In the past, he had asked for a long time but there was no answer. This time, there was hope in front of him!
Li Yu asked, “What kind of mission is it?”
He felt that “Protect the Pet Fish” was too general.
It was related to whether the host could completely recover. The system explained in detail, “The time limit of the mission is three days. After the start, the host will take turns to become a mermaid or a murloc. You will not be able to move freely and must be protected by Tyrant alone. If you are discovered by others during this period, the mission will be considered a failure.
Li Yu, “…”
This was a mission that he needed to be protected?
He knew what a mermaid was, but what about a murloc?
The system said, “A mermaid’s upper body is a human and its lower body is a fish. A murloc is the opposite. Its upper body is a fish and its lower body is a human.”
Li Yu, “…”
In other words, in this mission, he would become a half-human, half-fish, half-human, half-fish.
Oh no, she looked even more like a carp spirit now.
It would be fine if he only became a fish, but if he became a mermaid or a murloc, not to mention being protected by King Jing, he might even scare King Jing.
In the Legend of the White Snake, the half-human, half-snake White Snake Spirit once scared a scholar to death.
Li Yu forced himself to calm down. If his hand shook and he started, he would immediately become neither a human nor a fish. There was only one chance for this mission. It was better to prepare King Jing mentally. Of course, he hoped to succeed and live a happy life in the future.
