Although he asked this, Ming Wang still obediently loosened his grip. Then Lan Shuang stretched out his arms like a lazy cat, and the slightly loose sleeves slid down slightly, revealing his arms that still had some mottled marks.
Prince Ming looked at her lovingly, but he didn't expect that the arms would be around his neck the next moment. He widened his eyes slightly, looking surprised. Lan Shuang smiled and moved closer, tilted her head slightly and kissed him on the lips.
"Wake up kiss."
Ming Wang was startled, and then his heart began to beat wildly, his face and ears burning. Lan Shuang hung limply on him, her chin resting on his shoulder, and asked lazily, "When are we going to eat? I'm hungry."
It was a very ordinary sentence, but Ming Wang suddenly remembered the storybook that Lan Shuang had read before. There was a sentence in it: "Why are you hungry again? Did I not feed you enough?"
These words almost came out of my mouth.
Fortunately, his lust-induced brain was not completely damaged, and he managed to regain a bit of rationality.
King Ming coughed lightly and pinched Lan Shuang's exposed earlobe. Lan Shuang shrank into his arms because she was ticklish.
These little actions made Ming Wang restless, "I'll have someone serve the food right away."
He was still unwilling to give up and couldn't help asking, "Did you learn all this... from storybooks?"
888 also asked at the same time: "Host, why did you suddenly let go? And why are you so proactive and flirting?"
Lan Shuang listened to what was going on in her head and looked at what was happening before her eyes. She couldn't help but laugh. "You're self-taught, so why would you read a storybook? We're already husband and wife, and I've accepted the identity of the princess. So what's there to be shy about?"
She said the same thing to two people, but Ming Wang and 888 heard different meanings.
Ming Wang felt that she was trying to accept him, so she showed her true side in front of him, and he enjoyed this feeling.
888, on the other hand, felt that the host had never resisted from the very beginning. It turned out that he had been coveting her beauty for a long time, right?
Lan Shuang didn't know what they were thinking. In fact, her idea was very simple. If she liked him, she would just go for it. Anyway, she was injured now, so she just flirted with him instead of putting out the fire. She just let this guy who was tormenting her endure it for a few days.
After staying together for a while, the two of them got dressed and went to eat. Biqing, Zhenhan and Mianxiang hadn't seen Lan Shuang for almost two days and were very worried. When they saw her this time, they were all excited and relieved.
With Biqing around, Ming Wang sat back in his wheelchair and began pretending to be disabled.
After dinner, Lan Shuang said to Ming Wang, "How about I move to the front? It's closer to the study, so you don't have to run back and forth."
Biqing was stunned. What were they moving?
The princess is going to sleep with the prince?
Ming Wang thought for a moment and shook his head. "The scenery in the backyard is nice, and your yard is spacious. I'll move there. It's only a few steps to the study, so it won't be in the way."
Seeing his insistence, Lan Shuang nodded: "I'll listen to you."
So after dinner, Yu Heng and Yu Xiao called a few people and moved all of Ming Wang’s things to the backyard.
While they were moving, someone from the palace suddenly came, and Yu Heng hurried to the front to deal with it.
The person who came was the emperor's chief eunuch, who also brought an imperial physician with him. As soon as he entered the room, he said with a big smile, "Is Your Highness ready to rest?"
Yu Heng cupped his hands and said, "The prince is not feeling well and has not gotten up yet."
Upon hearing this, the eunuch's expression immediately changed. "Tsk, how did this happen? The Emperor has been thinking about this matter all day, and he still feels uncomfortable after dinner. Let me bring Imperial Physician Fang to see the prince. Only after the doctor sees him can the Emperor feel at ease."
Yu Heng glanced at the thin and taciturn Imperial Physician Fang beside the eunuch and smiled: "Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. In that case, Eunuch and Imperial Physician Fang, please come in--"
"No hurry, the Emperor and the Empress have sent a servant to bring a lot of medicinal herbs. Please ask Steward Yu to have someone put them away."
He turned around and shouted to the back: "Carry it in——"
At a command, several young eunuchs came in carrying a small mahogany box. When they opened it, they saw various rare medicinal herbs sorted into categories.
Yu Heng raised his eyebrows. This dog emperor really spent a lot of money to pretend to be a good brother.
He remained silent, thanked the King on his behalf, had the herbs put away, and then led the chief eunuch and Imperial Physician Fang to the backyard.
The chief eunuch looked around as he walked, thinking that it was one thing for the prince to not care about the princess, but this courtyard was really well built.
As soon as I entered the room, I saw Princess Ming busying around in the bedroom from afar.
Yu Heng stood on the steps and called out, "Your Highness, Princess, Eunuch Li and Imperial Physician Fang are here."
Lan Shuang's clear voice came from inside, "Please come in."
"Yes." Yu Heng turned to the two of them and said, "Please—"
Eunuch Li smiled as he and Imperial Physician Fang went up the stairs. After entering the bedroom, Imperial Physician Fang stood there with his head down, while Eunuch Li quickly swept the room.
Lan Shuang pretended not to notice and said while twisting her handkerchief, "Thank you both for coming here so late at night. The Emperor really cares about His Highness."
Eunuch Li smiled and said, "Brothers are like brothers. Your Highness is the Emperor's younger brother, so the Emperor naturally cares about him more. I wonder how Your Highness is doing now?"
Lan Shuang sighed and walked towards the inner room with a wet handkerchief in hand, "Follow me."
After walking around the screen and entering the inner room, I saw Ming Wang lying on the bed with a pale face. There were some dark marks under his eyes. At first glance, he seemed to have lost a lot of weight and looked very haggard.
When he heard the noise, he just weakly lifted his eyelids to look at them, then lowered his eyes again.
Lan Shuang came forward with a handkerchief and placed it on Prince Ming's forehead, whispering, "Your Highness has been feeling weak these past two days, with frequent bouts of sweating and fever. He's also irritable and easily angered. He just had a fit, so he's unable to get up right now. Please forgive me."
Eunuch Li waved his hands hurriedly, "No, no, no, Princess, you are being too humiliating to me. I am not a worthy servant, how can I trouble Your Highness to stand up?"
As he spoke, he turned to the Imperial Physician Fang beside him, "Imperial Physician Fang, please take a good look at the prince."
"Yes." Imperial Physician Fang hadn't spoken a word since he entered the room. Lan Shuang secretly glanced at him while he was walking over.
She couldn't help but ask in her heart: "888, this imperial physician is the Ming King's man, right?"
888 was surprised: "Host, how do you know?"
Lan Shuang: "A reasonable guess."
"Huh? How did you guess when he didn't say anything?"
Lan Shuang chuckled, her eyes sweeping over Imperial Physician Fang's hand. She said, "Whether you're sick or not, the Imperial Physician can tell with just one pulse check. Even if the poison is subtle and invisible at ordinary times, there will be some traces of it just after it took effect. Moreover, the person the Emperor sent to diagnose Prince Ming's pulse must be a physician the Emperor trusts the most. Don't you think Prince Ming wouldn't have thought of this?"
888: "Uh... he'll definitely be able to think of it."
"Since he knew, he still allowed others to see it so openly, which shows that he is very confident. Either he has a way to change his pulse, or... Imperial Physician Fang is loyal to the emperor on the surface, but he is actually his man behind the scenes."
"The probability is one in two. I was lucky and guessed the correct half on the first try."
