Chapter 101 Heart of the Ocean 11

When the emperor woke up, the curtains had just been opened by the servants.

Charlie, who had been with him all the time, quickly stood up and helped him up from the bed according to the emperor's instructions. "Doctor Yu gave you a sedative. Do you still have a headache now?"

The emperor took a sip of the hot tea handed over by the servant, "Not bad."

Charlie breathed a sigh of relief, but there was still a lingering feeling of other emotions between his eyebrows.

If it were normal times, the emperor would be able to keenly perceive that Charlie had something to say, but today his attention was not on Charlie.

In order to keep the air in the house fresh, the servants would regularly change the flowers in the house.

This time, the blue roses were placed on the window.

It must have been watered in the morning. There were many large and small water drops on the petals of the blue rose, which made the crystal blue rose petals more transparent in the sunlight.

The emperor stared at it for a long time, so long that the attendants beside him were a little uneasy, "... Your Majesty, is there something wrong with this flower?"

Charlie looked in the direction of the sound and followed the emperor to look at the rose for a while.

"Where are the roses?"

The emperor asked suddenly.

The attendant couldn't figure out the emperor's thoughts, so he could only answer the question honestly and introduce the source of the flowers.

After speaking, he smiled and added, "Blue roses have high requirements for the environment. In order to keep the roses fresh, they basically have to be replaced every two days."

The emperor waved his hands.

The attendant quickly pulled out a rose that bloomed the best and presented it to the emperor with both hands.

Charlie was surprised, and followed the servant's movements, slowly fixing his eyes on the rose in the emperor's hand.

...This flower.

Did His Majesty like roses before?

Charlie was wondering, and the emperor holding the rose suddenly spoke: "Do you remember the question I asked you when we were at sea?"

The air was quiet for a moment, and Charlie lowered his head slightly, and reacted quickly, "I remember."

"Well," the emperor fiddled with the blue rose a few times, and his eyebrows and eyes were a little gentle because of the blue background. Suddenly, Charlie thought he had seen it wrong, "Tell me about it."

The first thing he did when he woke up was to ask this.

Thousands of thoughts flashed through Charlie's mind, but he didn't show it on his face, "Yes, I have seen a mermaid with the heart of the ocean, black hair and black eyes, with blue scales--"

The voice stopped abruptly.

The emperor looked up at him, "Why don't you say anything?"

Charlie stared at the blue rose in the emperor's hand. Each petal was adorned with crystal clear water droplets, beautiful and fragile.

Blue rose, blue...

A layer of cold sweat slowly broke out on Charlie's back. He opened his mouth, but couldn't say a word.

In a flash, Charlie understood what had happened on the boat almost instantly.

At that time, His Majesty was holding a telescope and happened to see Yu Xi's face showing in the distance.

Yu Xi's appearance was so conspicuous that even His Majesty could hardly ignore it.

In those few seconds, His Majesty must have seen Yu Xi and suddenly used his mental power to catch him, but the use of mental power triggered the root of the disease, which allowed Yu Xi to escape.

While his mind was still in a mess, the door of the bedroom was pushed open by a large group of people including Doctor Yu.

The conversation between the two was interrupted.

In addition to a few Doctor Yu, there were also several cabinet ministers and parliamentarians following behind, and their followers were beside them.

And behind them was another group of people who were so dense that it was hard to tell who they were.

Why did so many people come?

Doctor Yu saluted the emperor respectfully, "Your Majesty, how do you feel now?"

The emperor said, "Just a little bloating, it's much better now."

Several doctors looked at each other, and soon someone stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty has a problem with your spiritual sea this time. We discussed it all night and felt that we should be careful in the treatment and take this opportunity to repair your Majesty's spiritual power, so..."

The doctors made way, and at the same time, a group of people in the back slowly walked in pushing two large boxes.

The things in the box were a bit heavy, and the pulleys made a dull rolling sound on the floor.

The lid was not closed tightly, because some water stains were splashed out when it was pushed.

"Your Majesty, these two mermaids are specially selected for you. The singing of mermaids can repair the spiritual sea. You may as well give it a try."

Doctor Yu said, and then he lifted his hand to remove the white cloth covering the outside.

Mermaids are difficult to tame, and it is even more difficult to breed mermaids from mermaids who have been caught ashore, so the mermaids currently used on the Imperial Star are all wild mermaids.

Wild mermaids are undisciplined and often require long-term training to gradually become docile and close to humans.

Two mermaids with blue fish tails suddenly appeared in the box with Doctor Yu's actions.

The box was sealed and surrounded by transparent glass. The two mermaids curiously popped their heads out, staring at the emperor with a pair of azure blue eyes without blinking.

These two mermaids were the mermaids with the best tempers after careful selection.

The sparkling blue fish tail swayed gently underwater, creating ripples.

The emperor's eyes fell on the mermaid's tail.

"You see..."

"No need."

The emperor retracted his gaze, put his fingers on the blue petals, and said in a faint voice, "You don't need a mermaid to treat it."

Doctor Yu was a little anxious, "But your headache-"

"If you really want a mermaid to treat it," the emperor's eyes did not move away from the blue rose, and he raised his hand to look at the petals in the sun, "Then go find me a blue-tailed mermaid with black hair and black eyes."

Charlie looked up and was caught off guard by the emperor's dark golden eyes.

The two mermaids in the water tank looked at each other, and quietly exchanged a worried look in a corner where no human noticed.

Although they have been away from the ocean for a long time, they live a good life on the shore by clinging to humans. But they never forgot the sea.

——And their king, the only blue-tailed mermaid with black hair and black eyes in the ocean.

The doctors looked at each other, not knowing why His Majesty suddenly brought up this.

The blue-tailed mermaid with black hair and black eyes... none of them had ever seen one.

His Majesty meant... Did he want them to go to the sea and catch a mermaid like this?

For a moment, everyone in the room had different thoughts and no one spoke.

Until the emperor became a little impatient and signaled his servants to send these people away and closed the door of the bedroom, the room became quiet again.

"You, you are..."

Charlie's Adam's apple moved slightly, and the subject suddenly changed, "Do you like roses?"

The emperor stared at him for a while, which made Charlie sweat on his forehead, and the emperor suddenly laughed.

"What do you think?"

The blue rose was rare, tender, yet breathtakingly beautiful.

The emperor also wanted to hold the rose in his palm.

The blue-scaled mermaid with black hair and black eyes was extremely rare. Just these two sentences back and forth, Charlie and the emperor knew each other's thoughts.

Charlie lowered his head even deeper, and clenched his palms at his sides into fists.
