Chapter 152: The Eccentric Doctor (I)

Translator: Storm in a Teacup

After Shi took a bath and came out, Long was already sitting at the table waiting for him.

Shi raised his eyebrows and went over.

Long watched Shi sit at the table and smiled. “You’re finished?”

Shi nodded. “Yes.”

Long leaned over and sniffed at his neck. “It smells good.”

Shi blinked. “I didn’t wear perfume.”

“It’s really fragrant,” Long said.

“All right.” Shi didn’t think too much. Looking at all the dishes on the table, Shi said, “Let’s eat.”

“Okay.” Long smiled.

During the meal, Long kept putting food in Shi’s bowl. He seemed to be afraid that Shi would starve to death.

Shi didn’t refuse.

At last, when they finished eating, Shi felt replete.

Long leaned over and touched Shi’s belly with a smile.

Shi stopped Long with his hand. Long said with a smile, “Don’t stop me. Let me touch it.”

The two of them looked at each other for a while. Finally, Shi lost to that cheeky man.

Long stroked Shi’s belly contentedly, looking very happy.

Shi’s lips twitched. “Why do you have to touch my belly? There will be no baby in there.”

Long was stunned. “What?”

Shi rolled his eyes. “You know what I mean.”

Long felt confused. “We already have a son, don’t we? I don’t need another one.”

Shi was surprised and did not say anything.

Long smiled and grasped Shi’s hand. “Qingzhou, you want a baby of our own? But it’s impossible. How can the two of us have a baby? It’s enough to have Long Huan. He’s our son, isn’t he?”

Shi felt touched and smilingly looked at Long, without saying anything.

Then, the two of them went for a walk in the yard hand in hand.

After about an hour, they planned to go back to rest. Just then, a servant reported that Hu Qingyuan came.

Long and Shi looked at each other. Then, Shi said, “Ask him to go to the side hall.”

Long and Shi went to the side hall, where they waited for Hu to come.

After Hu arrived, he knelt down and greeted the emperor and empress.

Long waved directly. “Get up. Minister Hu, what’s the matter?”

Hu immediately said, “Your Majesty, I came up with an idea. Maybe the murderer can be arrested.”

“Oh? What’s that?” Long asked immediately.

An hour later, Hu left the side hall of Qiankun Palace.

After he left, Long said in bewilderment, “Although it is very risky, we have no other choice right now. Why did Hu Qingyuan especially come here to tell us about this? He’s in charge of this, isn’t he?”

Shi smiled. “Although he is responsible for this, this plan is rather risky. If it failed, he would be blamed and punished. So he came to inform us in advance.”

“Oh, it’s like this.” Long patted his forehead. “That’s right. If he didn’t tell us in advance and get my consent, there would be a lot of troubles in the future. But… Qingzhou, do you think it will work?”

Shi didn’t say anything.

Long sighed. “Ask someone to be disguised as a night watchman… Qingzhou, the murderer is extremely powerful. Even if a capable man is asked to do this, he may not be a match for the murderer.”

“There is no other way,” Shi said.

Long sighed again and said nothing more.

This night, Long and Shi both slept late.

They didn’t have sex. They just couldn’t fall asleep.

Finally, Long held Shi in his arms and rubbed himself against Shi’s body.

Shi knew Long was in a bad good, so he didn’t stop Long.

After quite a while, Long finally fell asleep.

Shi also went to sleep.

The next day, after Long got up in the morning, the first thing he did was ask the Shadow Guardian about what happened the previous night.

Then, he got the answer that no one was murdered in the imperial city at night.

The answer stunned Long. He didn’t know what was really going on.

It was a good thing that no one was killed, but after they just made the plan…

Long felt this matter was a little strange.

After the Shadow Guardian left, Long turned his head and saw Shi coming to him.

“Qingzhou, you’re awake.” Long hurried to Shi.

Shi nodded with a smiled. “Well, what happened last night?”

Long told Shi what the Shadow Guardian said.

Shi was also stunned. “So nothing happened last night?”

“Yes, I don’t know why the murderer didn’t appear.”

Shi thought about it and tilted his head. “Is it because he already knew that the night watchman had been changed?”

“He can’t be so well-informed.” Long frowned.

Shi slightly shook his head. “It’s hard to say.”

Long had some doubts. “Oh?”

“People with great martial arts can feel whether a person can fight or not. Maybe he felt it was strange, so he didn’t take action,” Shi said.

Long pondered. After a while, Long said, “Well, I’ll go to attend the morning meeting first.”

“Yes.” Shi nodded. “Go ahead.”

Long went to attend the meeting. No one was killed in the imperial city the previous night, so not many people complained.

It didn’t take much time for Long to finish the meeting.

After Long returned to Qiankun Palace where Shi was staying, a Shadow Guardian sent a message that the “Miracle Worker” had arrived.

Shi said, “I’ll go out to take a look later.”
