Everyone played for a while at the horseback archery field in the afternoon, and then the women left one after another.
In the evening, a banquet was held for civil and military officials. Duan Changchuan drank three more cups of wine, and changed to tea after the fourth cup.
When I returned to Mingsheng Temple, it was already past midnight. After I finished bathing, it was already midnight.
Duan Changchuan was so sleepy that he sat there yawning and could hardly open his eyes.
Just as he was about to fall asleep, Changle reluctantly pulled him back: "Your Majesty, please wait a while before going to sleep. Imperial Doctor Fang prescribed a paste for you this morning. I will apply it to you. It won't take long."
The boy blinked, and it took him a while to react: "Ah... ? Oh, then go get it."
“Hey.”
-
So, when Bai Su came in after taking a bath, she saw a little child in bright yellow underwear sitting obediently by the bed.
The head was still nodding.
I vaguely remembered that on the night of my marriage to my Omega, when we came back from taking a bath, my little one looked like this too.
I couldn't open my eyes at all. I sat on the edge of the bed and let her put on her pajamas.
Both of his ears were red, and he kept nestling in her arms dependently.
Then, I woke up and arrived in this unknown era...
Bai Su pressed the gland on the back of her neck that had not yet fully recovered, and couldn't help but frown.
Her body and herself traveled through time, but her Omega didn't come. The subsequent susceptible period was a big problem.
An Omega that loses its Alpha will collapse due to pheromone disorder, and an Alpha that loses its Omega will not be much better off.
An Alpha who has not been comforted by an Omega for a long time will one day develop pheromone deficiency syndrome. It may take one year, or it may take ten years... but no matter how long the interval is, that day will always come.
No one would feel good if they knew they would die soon.
Tsk, a disease like pheromone deficiency syndrome... would be considered crazy in this era, right
"Your Majesty, I am back... Your Majesty, I wish you all the best."
Changle came back with the ointment and immediately bowed to Bai Su when she saw her.
Bai Su nodded and sat on the side couch. It was a special case that she could "climb onto the dragon bed" yesterday. Today, the bedding for the side couch was ready, so she had no reason to continue sleeping on the dragon bed.
Besides, Duan Changchuan didn't want to have any real relationship with her, and she knew it would be best if there wasn't even any gossip among the servants.
The element of anger was one thing, but more importantly: she came from the Bai family, a concubine's daughter, and was married off as a substitute. Even if she made it clear that she was an abandoned child of the Bai family, Duan Changchuan would not have much to do with her.
Who knows if she might be a spy from the Bai Mansion
This identity is destined to be unpopular with both sides.
On the other side, Changle was still talking to Duan Changchuan.
"Your Majesty, your wound looks much better now. It was still swollen this morning, but it's much better now. The ointment given by Doctor Fang is really amazing. I just applied it once this morning."
"Is it done? Then I won't apply it anymore."
"Eh? Your Majesty, it's not fully healed yet. Just apply it again and it should be completely healed by tomorrow."
"Isn't it already done? I won't apply it."
"Your Majesty, why are you lying down... Hey!"
Bai Su looked over in the direction of the sound, and sure enough, she saw a noticeable small bulge on the dragon couch. A hunched little eunuch was kneeling beside the bed, holding the ointment he had dug out, at a loss as to what to do.
How can you be like a child
But if he himself doesn't want to, his subordinates can't restrain him.
After all, he is the emperor, the supreme ruler. Who dares to disobey him
It just so happens that this emperor is a kid who just turned 18 years old.
Bai Su got up helplessly, walked to the boy's bed, and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Your Majesty, your Majesty has been bitten by an insect on the neck. Doctor Fang prescribed an ointment, but your Majesty does not want to apply it... I am afraid that it has not healed completely yet. If you do not apply it today, it will be worse tomorrow."
"Give me the ointment, and you can go down."
Changle looked at the person curled up in the quilt and hesitated.
Bai Su: "Don't worry, your Majesty is both civil and military, what can a woman like me do to him?"
The young eunuch then handed the things to her and said, "Then I will take my leave first."
…
-
After all the servants in the room had left, Bai Su half-knelt forward and patted the small bulge on her chest.
"Why did you suddenly lose your temper with Changle? You were drunk at night, too, huh?"
"… "
Totally ignore it.
Bai Su: …
If I didn't know what the boy really looked like when he fell asleep, I would have thought he had fallen asleep.
"Your Majesty, if you are sick you have to take medicine. This is something that even a child knows. Why are you still showing off?"
"Duan Changchuan, do you know why it has been difficult to produce wise rulers since ancient times? Because the position of emperor is too high, the power is too great, and it is impossible to hear the voices that need to be heard."
When he heard something related to governing the country, the little bulge in the quilt moved slightly.
Bai Su couldn't help but curl her lips: "In the court, remonstrances against the monarch are called 'risking one's life', because if the monarch is slightly dissatisfied, one may lose one's life. A monarch is a wise monarch only if he can distinguish right from wrong and control correct criticism. But if there is no one in the world who can disobey you, this is a very difficult thing. Therefore, it is also very difficult to be a wise monarch."
The young man opened his eyes and said in a hoarse voice: "I..."
"Um?"
The silent young man hesitated for a moment, then suddenly changed the subject, complaining in a low voice: "I just feel better and don't want to apply medicine... Why do you have such a long speech? It's even more nagging than the teachers in the Imperial College."
Bai Su smiled: "Because Your Majesty seems to want to be a wise ruler, I just want to tell Your Majesty that in state affairs, some people will disobey the king for the sake of the people of the world, and that is righteousness. But in private, if you take medicine on time and take good care of your body, no one will disobey you. If you don't want to eat, no one will force you to eat, and if you don't want to apply medicine, no one will force you to apply it."
Because people are selfish, no one would risk their lives to persuade an emperor who does not want to be treated to take medicine out of concern.
Therefore, since ancient times, emperors have always been in high positions where it is lonely.
"So, Duan Changchuan, take care of yourself from now on, okay?"
Bai Su didn't say anything else.
Between them, saying so much was already an overstep. After all, the other party was the emperor of the entire country.
"I am not willful." said the young man.
Then he lifted the quilt and got up.
Bai Su didn't expose him, and said, "Then apply the medicine? Apply it today, and it will be healed tomorrow."
The young man's fingers gripping the corner of the quilt tightened, and after a long while he nodded hesitantly.
He pushed aside the hair on the side of his neck and tilted his head to expose his neck in front of her.
It was late at night at midnight. Changle had turned off most of the lights before going out, leaving only two lamps by the table that were still emitting flickering lights.
The young man's jade-like neck was lost in the beating shadows. The more vague it was, the more I wanted to examine it...
Bai Su's heart suddenly skipped a beat.
He quickly collected his thoughts and said to himself, "Calm down, this is just an ordinary person, an ordinary person without glands. You have your own Omega."
He recited it several times before concentrating on applying the medicine on him.
-
Duan Changchuan didn't know what was wrong with him. He felt very resistant whenever he thought about someone touching the back of his neck.
But when Bai Su offered to help, that indescribable resistance seemed to disappear.
Well, I feel a little embarrassed, but at the same time, a secret expectation wells up in my heart.
[I don’t think I have any weird habits…]
He pondered in his heart.
The woman's fingertips slid gently across her neck, and Duan Changchuan's fingers, which were pinching the corner of the quilt, unconsciously tightened.
This person must have just burned incense after taking a bath, and the peony fragrance that wafted into his nose was stronger than that in the afternoon.
It smells really good...
It's dense and smells very comfortable.
He even wanted the two of them to stay like this forever and not separate...
"Okay, time to sleep."
After the woman finished applying the medicine, she patted him on the shoulder and stepped back to put the medicine bottle away.
Duan Changchuan felt as if a basin of cold water was poured over his head, and he immediately became more sober.
[Duan Changchuan, what are you doing? It's only been one day, why are you... ]
He quickly lay down with a thud and pulled the quilt up to cover himself tightly.
sleep!
It’s all my fault because I’m young and too hot-tempered.
Yes! That must be it!
Although... she smells really good.
So what kind of fragrance is this person using...
The author has something to say:
What kind of fragrance is this? The fragrance that makes you want to stop (bushi
