Rebirth As a Fatuous and Self-indulgent Ruler Chapter 107 – A Doting Lover (I)

Chapter 107: A Doting Lover (I)

Translator: Storm in a Teacup

On the first night of their return trip, Long and Shi could not stay in the inn, because there were two thousand troops following them.

Which inn was so large that it could hold so many people?

Long and Shi could also order the two thousand troops to follow them far away, but… those troops wouldn’t be able to protect them well in that way.

Therefore, Long and Shi spent the first night in the wild.

The camping place was chosen by Qiu Ming, a quite capable young man. He was just 22 years old, but he was already a major general.

Both Long and Shi had the idea of training him.

In addition, Qiu Ming was an orphan, which was very similar to Lian Qingyang.

After being trained, such a person could be a good general who was only loyal to the emperor.

Shi Qingzhou directly asked Fang Shoujiang to let Qiu Ming work for him. Shi found Qiu was a capable man, and after a thorough investigation, Shi ordered Qiu to lead the troops on their way back.

Otherwise, the leader would be someone else.

Since Shi brought Qiu here, Qiu would definitely have a bright future.

However, it still needed to be tested whether Qiu could be qualified for some important post.

At present, it only be said that he was a talent that could be trained.

Shi would cherish every talent.

At night, Long thought of a man after seeing Qiu.

“Qingzhou, I thought of the man who was caught in the First Wangyeh’s mansion… At that time, you also said he was a talent and kept him alive. How is that man now?”

“Hmm?” Shi looked at Long. “What?”

Long said, “I mean to ask where that man is now.”

Shi understood and smiled. “I haven’t sent him out to do anything. Everything is fine now.”

“Did he say any useful information about the First Wangyeh?”

“He was just paid for working for others, so he didn’t know much,” Shi said.

Long was a little disappointed. After lying down in the tent, Long held Shi’s waist.

“Qingzhou.”

“Hmm?” Shi responded and then turned to look at Long.

Long held Shi in his arms and then laughed a silly laugh. “Qingzhou.”

Shi responded again. “Hmm?”

“Nothing. I just wanted to call your name,” Long said.

Shi smiled. “Don’t you feel tired?”

Long shook his head. “No, I don’t. Maybe because you’re with me, I don’t feel tired at all. And it’s more comfortable to travel by carriage than riding a horse.”

“All right.” Shi smiled again. “You don’t like riding that much?”

Long nodded. “Yeah. What’s good about riding?”

Shi chuckled. “It’s much faster.”

Long blinked. “But it’s not comfortable.”

Shi didn’t know what to say. “Alright. So we’re traveling by carriage now and you’re not tired.”

“Mhmm.” Long nodded.

Shi almost laughed out loud.

Long felt so embarrassed.

So, Long immediately covered Shi’s mouth and stopped him from laughing.

Shi couldn’t say anything.

Long pinched Shi’s cheeks and said, “Why are you laughing? I’ll make you pay!”

After finishing this childish game, Long felt a little tired, so he directly held Shi in his arms.

Covered by Long, Shi almost couldn’t breathe.

Seeing this, Long finally let go of Shi. “Are you okay?”

Shi rolled his eyes. “What do you think?”

Long felt a little sorry and coughed.

Shi didn’t want to talk anymore, so he closed his eyes.

Long laughed. Then, he took Shi’s hand and put it in the quilt. Their two hands intertwined.

Shi looked at Long and smiled. Then, he closed his eyes again.

Long stopped messing around and fell into sleep with Shi in his arms.

However, the night was not peaceful.

From Shuanghua City to the imperial palace, it would only take them five days, even if they chose to rest at night. The closer they got to the imperial palace, the more difficult for others to assassinate the emperor.

So, it would be the best choice for the assassins to take action after Long just went out of Shuanghua City.

Moreover, they would only have five days. There was not so much time for them to waste.

So, this night, of course, was not peaceful.

It wasn’t a peaceful night for the people outside, but it didn’t affect Long and Shi who were staying in the tent, because there were two thousand troops and many Shadow Guardians guarding outside.

If so many guards still couldn’t handle several assassins… then they didn’t need to follow the emperor at all!

So, when Long woke up the next morning, he even didn’t know that some assassins came the previous night.

Shi was still sleeping, which was very rare to see, so Long felt very surprised.

Long thought that they didn’t do anything last night, but why his Qingzhou was still sleeping.

In fact, it was because the Shi didn’t sleep well. Long wasn’t so vigilant, so he knew nothing about the assassination. But Shi wasn’t like him.

Although he stayed in the tent and didn’t move, it didn’t mean that he wasn’t on alert.

Shi believed that the assassins would not pose any threat to them, but he was always a cautious person. So, he wouldn’t go to sleep when there were assassins outside.

This could also be said a disadvantage of the people with great martial arts and internal power.

Even if he wanted to have a rest, the noises outside could still be heard by him.

Therefore, Shi didn’t have a good rest and didn’t wake up as early as usual.

Looking at the sleeping man, Long leaned and kissed Shi’s lips.

Shi wasn’t dead. If a man still didn’t wake up after being kissed… he would be really like a dead man!

So, Shi opened his eyes.

Seeing that Shi woke up, Long didn’t stop, but continue to kiss him.

Shi blinked and then kissed him back.
