Chapter 160 I Deserve This Pain
Shi Jianli glanced at him and replied, "Oh."
If she doesn't agree to him, he will use all kinds of tricks to coax her to agree, not limited to pretending to be pitiful and miserable to win her heart.
Mingzhao still smiled as he reached out and held his son in his arms, rocking him gently. "Come, let Daddy coax you to sleep."
"Ah~" Xier waved her little hand, grabbed his collar, and pressed her little face against his chest.
Mingzhao even bent down and kissed his forehead, "Good boy."
Shi Jianli held up her face and looked at the father and son, with a gentle smile on her face.
Feeling her gaze, Mingzhao turned his head, smiled and leaned over to kiss her lips, "Good lady."
She blinked, her face inexplicably hot, she looked away, but the corners of her lips curled up slightly.
Mingzhao chuckled softly, "Why is Yaoyao so shy about kissing me now?"
Shi Jianli glanced at him sideways, deliberately said with a stern face: "You are annoying."
He put away the smile on his lips, but his brows became softer. He lowered his head to tease his still energetic son.
After coaxing Xi'er to sleep, Mingzhao carried him to the small bed where he lay on his side and covered him with a quilt. Then he came back and picked up Shi Jianli horizontally and said, "Come on, let's go take a bath."
Shi Jianli leaned lazily into his arms.
As soon as they entered the bathroom, Mingzhao began to kiss her and skillfully took off her clothes with his hands.
They both entered the water, the rising mist misted up her brows and eyes. Shi Jianli's breathing was a little unstable, but he stepped back and began to help her bathe carefully. His rough palms touched her skin, bringing her trembling touch.
Mingzhao lifted her chin, gently bit her lips, took her out of the bathtub, wrapped her in a bath towel and carried her back to the room.
All the servants along the way were dismissed, leaving only the candlelight that had just been lit.
After putting her on the bed, Mingzhao took her pajamas and helped her put them on.
Shi Jianli, who was a little dazed by his kiss, turned her head to look at him. She clearly noticed his impulse.
Mingzhao even bent down and kissed her eyelids, "Yaoyao, do you want it?"
Shi Jianli turned around and hugged his waist, gently kissing his Adam's apple, "You thought so, don't blame me, you really are the one who complains first."
A warm feeling came from her neck, Mingzhao's Adam's apple rolled, and he held her hand.
Shi Jianli struggled but couldn't pull her hand back, so she could only let him do it.
After a long time, Mingzhao still held her in bed, rubbing the back of her hand with his thumb and gently stroking her hair, "Go to sleep."
Shi Jianli stared at him suspiciously.
He chuckled and pinched her face, "Why do you look so unbelievable? Aren't we going out to play tomorrow? Don't tire your wife out."
The spring nights were still a little cold. Shi Jianli let out a cry, nestled in his arms, smelling the familiar scent of sweet pine, and gradually fell asleep.
Mingzhao raised the corners of his lips slightly and kissed the corner of her eye.
She nuzzled his neck unconsciously.
At night, accustomed to the warmth of his embrace, Shi Jianli felt a little cold, pulled the quilt and turned over. Not feeling the familiar embrace, she opened her eyes.
In the hazy moonlight, she saw a figure beside her a little far away, so she rolled to his side and hugged him.
Mingzhao, who was still awake, curled his fingers slightly and raised his hand to pat her back.
Shi Jianli rubbed his neck again, and her forehead felt a strange coolness. She woke up with a start, "Husband?"
"Yeah." Mingzhao responded.
Shi Jianli got up and touched his forehead with her hand, "Why are you sweating? Are you sick?"
"It's okay, I just have a little stomachache, it will be fine after a while." Mingzhao also sat up and held her hand.
Shi Jianli lifted the quilt and said, "I'll ask someone to get the court doctor."
He pulled the person into his arms and said, "No need. I know why I have a stomachache. It will be fine in a while."
"Why?" She sounded anxious.
"Madam Lao, wipe my sweat." Mingzhao even took a handkerchief from the bedside and placed it in her hand. "Take this pill. Elder Zhang gave it to you."
"What medicine?" Shi Jianli wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
"It's a contraceptive. After taking it, you'll have abdominal pain for half a day. Cold sweats are also symptoms that appear after taking the medicine. It will be gone after half an hour."
Shi Jianli tightened her fingers slightly and became silent.
Mingzhao still kissed her cheek and smiled gently, "Compared to the pain you felt when you gave birth to Xi'er, my pain is nothing. Matters in bed are selfish to me. Since I followed my desires, I deserve this pain."
"You just gave birth to Xi'er. You need to take care of your body for a few years before we have another child. It's also okay if you don't want one."
"If you feel bad for me, just kiss me. Kiss me and I won't feel any pain anymore."
Shi Jianli gently touched his lips. "Besides abdominal pain and night sweats, are there any other side effects? How long will this medicine last?"
"No, I'll be full of energy in a while." Mingzhao put his palm on her back and pressed her against his chest. "Yaoyao, the injuries I suffered on the battlefield were much more painful than this, but I still managed to remain calm. It really doesn't hurt that much."
"One pill lasts for half a year, and there are six pills."
Shi Jianli reached into his pajamas and wiped the sweat off his back with a handkerchief.
Mingzhao lowered his head and gently kissed her lips, and the pain seemed to ease a little.
She opened her lips slightly to meet his kiss, her long fingers wedging between them, her hand firmly held by him.
The kiss was long and tender. After pulling away, Ming Zhao still rested his forehead on her shoulder. "Go to sleep, Madam, or you won't have the energy to play tomorrow."
"I'll sleep after you sleep." In the dim moonlight, she stroked his eyebrows with her fingers and saw his sparkling eyes, and the love in them that burned her heart.
Shi Jianli's hand was placed on his abdomen.
Half an hour later, the side effects wore off, and Mingzhao got up. He had asked the servants to prepare hot water earlier, so he went to the bathroom and washed himself briefly.
Back on the bed, Mingzhao held her in his arms and said, "Go to sleep, Haoyaoyao. If you don't get up tomorrow, you'll have to break your promise to the princess."
Shi Jianli poked his face and asked, "It really doesn't hurt anymore?"
He kissed the corner of her lips and patted her back, "It doesn't hurt anymore, really."
She put her arms around his waist, rubbed his chest, closed her eyes, and felt a little complicated.
Mingzhao rested his chin lightly on the top of her head, curled his lips, closed his eyes, and held her tightly in his arms.
After dawn, he sat up. Seeing that he had also gotten up, Shi Jianli kissed her face skillfully, dressed her, and carried her to wash up.
When Xianyue came over to comb her hair, Shi Jianli said, "Go and ask Mr. Zhang."
"Yes, girl."
Mingzhao even pulled a chair and sat down next to her. "Yaoyao, are you worried about me?"
Lan Xing changed her makeup and when she was done, Shi Jianli put her arms around his waist and rested her head on his chest, "If I don't worry about you, who will?"
Mr. Zhang was invited over. He paced back and forth with his hands behind his back and asked, "Who wants to see it?"
"Please, Mr. Zhang, take my husband's pulse." Shi Jianli said softly.
Zhang Lao glanced at Mingzhao and placed his finger on his pulse. "Have you taken your medicine?"
"yes."
After a moment, Mr. Zhang withdrew his hand and walked away without looking back. "Don't worry, he's stronger than an ox. I'm going back to have breakfast."
Mingzhao held the person on his lap again, "Are you relieved, Madam?"
She then smiled and kissed the corner of his lips, "Yeah, I'm hungry."
