Chapter 1073: Should Refrain from Pa.s.sion

Ning Shu felt that there was a need for her to find a reason to not tumble with these male consorts in the inner palace. Fudge, she was scared that shed end up farting her last on the bed. This body was seriously the worst that she had ever encountered.

Imperial Physician, how is our body? asked Ning Shu.

The female imperial physicians hand trembled in shock, then she knelt down as she said, Your Majestys body must rest and recover. Forgive this subjects frankness, but Your Majesty should stop taking so many pills.

What does rest and recover include? Ning Shu lifted her brows as she looked towards the imperial physician. The imperial physician was taken aback briefly, but quickly said, Your Majesty should refrain from pa.s.sion for the time being.

Alright, this was exactly the answer she wanted!

Once the imperial physician left, Ning Shu decided to practice the Unsurpa.s.sable Martial Arts. She had to fix this body first. This body was truly very weak, she was always exhausted due to fatigue.

Your Majesty, today is the fifteenth, said Court Lady Qiu.

So? Ning Shu then realized the answer. It was the fifteenth so she should visit the phoenix empresss palace. After considering things for a bit, she headed to Phoenix Perch Palace.

Mu Nichang always visited Liu Changqings palace every month on the fifteenth without fail, so she couldnt really change this practice.

When she arrived at Phoenix Perch Palace, Liu Changqing was dressed in a green garment, but he still had that same spotted bamboo flute with him. He was a man with a lot of charm, he always emitted a simple and tranquil aura.

When Ning Shu saw Liu Changqing, a strange feeling emerged in her heart again. It was like something was trying to burst out of her chest.

Why were Mu Nichangs feelings for Liu Changqing so complicated? It was complicated to the point that even Ning Shu couldnt quite tell what exactly Mu Nichangs att.i.tude towards Liu Changqing was. However, the one thing she was sure of was that Mu Nichang definitely did love her phoenix empress.

Liu Changqing was a quiet person. Even in front of Ning Shu, he didnt speak much. However, just sitting together in silence like this was pretty awkward.

Ning Shu gave a cough. Liu Changqing looked towards Ning Shu, then said, Your Majesty, allow Changqing to play the flute for you?

Uh... Ning Shu shook her head. It was so late, playing the flute would disturb the neighbors. Lets rest.

A hard-to-catch expression flashed across Liu Changqings face, then he walked up to help Ning Shu change. As his slender fingers brushed against Ning Shus neck, it caused Ning Shu to feel a tingly sensation so awkward her entire body became covered with gooseb.u.mps.

It couldnt be that he wanted to do dat? Ning Shu was barely able to suppress her impulse to push Liu Changqing away. However, she noticed that Liu Changqings hands were trembling slightly, so she immediately calmed down. She took Liu Changqings hand. It was a little cold, like touching a jade stone.

Theres no need to go through the trouble. The imperial physician said that we needed rest, said Ning Shu.

Liu Changqing smoothly extracted his hand from her grip, then smiled faintly towards her. This smile gave people a very comfortable feeling.

Liu Changqing and Ning Shu lay down on the bed. The two of them were silent and just looked at the top of the bed. Ning Shu felt like she was lying on spikes, it was so uncomfortable. Phoenix Empress, youve done well looking after the inner palace. We thank you.

Liu Changqing was silent for a moment, then he said softly, This is simply Changqings duty.

Following that, the two of them were silent again. There was always a faint awkwardness in the air.

Ning Shu:

Why was talking so tiring?

Ning Shu flipped over so that her back faced Liu Changqing.

Liu Changqing turned slightly to look at Ning Shus back. His gaze was unreadable. He reached out and placed his hand on Ning Shus waist as he said softly, Your Majesty, you should sleep early. Theres still court tomorrow.

Ning Shu: f.u.c.k. Could you please not put your hand on someones waist? It frickin tickled!
