Chapter 170: The Injury on His Face
Although s.h.i.+ didnât like Liu Suifengâs character, he had trust in the doctorâs ability.
Since the doctor said that the poisonous insect could be controlled for a month, s.h.i.+ would rest a.s.sured for now.
When s.h.i.+ returned to the imperial palace, he didnât go back to Qiankun Palace at once. He⦠didnât know how to face Long.
One month was not a long time, but he⦠needed to make some decision.
If all the enemies were in the nation, he could do a lot more.
But at present, he could only defend against them pa.s.sively.
No, maybe, there were other waysâ¦
s.h.i.+ looked very serious. He must think of other ways. Otherwise, no one would end up well!
s.h.i.+ pressed his lips together and his eyes flashed with coldness.
After a while, s.h.i.+ restored calm and returned to his bedroom in Qiankun Palace.
Doctor Liu said that he had better control his emotions, so s.h.i.+ didnât dare to get too emotional.
In the bedroom, s.h.i.+ saw the man who was sleeping as a log and his expression softened.
Every time he looked at this person, his soft heart would be touchedâ¦
s.h.i.+ went to bed and lay down beside Long.
Then, s.h.i.+ hit Longâs acupoints to make him return to normal.
Long turned over and s.h.i.+ immediately looked at him.
However, Long didnât wake up at all.
s.h.i.+ did not know whether he should feel relieved or something else.
After watching Longâs profile for a long time, s.h.i.+ closed his eyesâ¦
The next day, when Long woke up, he felt something was not right.
It seemed that something happened last night, but he couldnât explain it clearly.
He just had the feeling that⦠something was wrong.
Looking at s.h.i.+ who was next to him, Long knew what was wrong.
Although s.h.i.+âs clothes and sleeping posture looked quite normal, there was blood on his lips!
Last night, his empress didnât allow him to touch him. Although they kissed, they didnât do it so pa.s.sionately. Long didnât think he bit s.h.i.+âs lips!
But⦠why did his lips bleed?
s.h.i.+ was to blame for this, because he had completely forgotten about this!
He forgot about the injury on his lips when he came back last night and he still hadnât woken up because he slept too late!
Long stared at s.h.i.+âs lips and didnât think that the injury was caused by a woman. No woman would be so cruel!
Wait! His empress would never allow a woman to kiss him!
If it was not made by a woman, then a man did that?
That was even more impossible! Longâs face darkened. No matter what, he didnât believe that his empress would do such a thing with another man. He just didnât believe it!
Long thought about it in anger. Looking at the injury on s.h.i.+âs lips, he became angry.
So, Long leaned over and kissed him fiercelyâ¦
Long was so rude, so s.h.i.+ woke up immediately.
âOuch.â The pain on the lips made s.h.i.+ slightly groan.
Long did not stop. He stuck his tongue into s.h.i.+âs mouth and deepened the kiss.
s.h.i.+ was shocked and became sober.
When Long was trying to take off s.h.i.+âs clothes and touch his body, s.h.i.+ thought of Liu Suifengâs warning, so he hurriedly stopped Long.
Long stopped with his eyes red. âQingzhouâ¦â
s.h.i.+âs lips twitched, but he insisted, âNo way.â
âWhy canât I?â Long questioned him discontentedly.
s.h.i.+ gritted his teeth and lied to Long, âWhen I went out last time, I took some medicine from Doctor Liu in case of accident. That medicine can prevent me from being poisoned, but it has strong efficacy. Doctor Liu warned me that we canât have s.e.x for a month. Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable.â
âWhat?â Long was shocked. âA month?â
s.h.i.+ nodded. âYes, a month.â
Longâs lips twitched. âThis is revenge! This is absolutely revenge!â
s.h.i.+ smiled wryly and said, âWell, it may be revenge, but I was in a hurry at that time, so I just took it.â
Longâs lips twitched again and his eyes were filled with sadness. âQingzhou, what happened to your lips?â
s.h.i.+ was stunned. He touched his mouth and the pain reminded him of what happened at the pool last night. So, s.h.i.+ said, âLast night, I went to ask him for the antidote while you were sleeping. He gave it to me, but the antidote had side effects. It was so painful that I bit my lips.â
âHuh? So the poison has been removed?â Long was confused.
s.h.i.+ smiled wryly. âNo.â
âWhat? Didnât you say you went to ask for the antidote?â
âWe had a bet before I took the antidote. I bet that I could bear the sharp pain in my body, while he said that I would at least bite my lips. At last, he won.â
Longâs face darkened. âSo he didnât give you the real antidote?â
s.h.i.+ blinked. âNo, he didnât.â
s.h.i.+ really spared no effort to set up Liu Suifeng and he took it for granted.
As a result, Long totally believed him!
After Long left Qiankun Palace, the first thing he did was to take revenge on Liu Suifeng!
When Long arrived, Doctor Liu just got up. Long broke in directly!
âLiu Suifeng!â Zhang Yuan told Long the doctorâs full name, but Long usually called him Doctor Liu. It was the first time that Long called him by his full name!
âOh?â Seeing that Long came in a very threatening manner, Doctor Liu was confused. He didnât understand why Long behaved like that.
Long stood in front of Doctor Liu and said angrily, âWhat did you do to Qingzhou?â
Doctor Liu was stunned. He narrowed his eyes, wondering how much Long had known.
However, no matter how much Long had known, Doctor Liu thought that he was the one who had saved s.h.i.+. The poisonous insect in s.h.i.+âs body had nothing to do with him. So, Long shouldnât have come here and talked to him so angrily.
In addition, although Long appeared angry, there wasnât real anger in his eyes.
In Doctor Liuâs opinion⦠Long came here just to find fault with him.
Indeed, Doctor Liu had an incredibly sharp mind. He had grasped the current situation in such a short time.
Then, Doctor Liu began to smile as he always did.
He said, âYour Majesty, why are you so angry? Did I do anything wrong?â
âHow dare you!â Long was very angry. âQingzhou just wanted the antidote, but you took the opportunity and hurt him. Humph, youâre so bold!â
âOh? I hurt himâ¦â Doctor Liu blinked and vaguely figured out what s.h.i.+ had said to Long.
It turned out that the emperor came to take revengeâ¦
âDoctor Liu, you hurt my Qingzhou. You donât deserve to be a doctor. Humph! Today, I will fight you!â
âFight?â Doctor Liu was stunned again. He looked at Long and said, âAre you sure? You want to fight me?â
âYes.â Long sneered. âBut Iâm the emperor. I canât do it by myself. My Shadow Guardians will fight you.â
While saying that, Long clapped his hands and fifty Shadow Guardians appeared in the courtyard.
They were all barehanded.
âAlthough itâs a fight, youâve done a lot of work and itâll be bad if youâre severely injured. So they wonât use weapons. Doctor Liu, you donât have to thank me.â
Doctor Liuâs lips twitched. He had only one word to describe the emperor: shameless.
However, this shameless man⦠was really to his liking⦠Therefore, Doctor Liu smiled more brightly and said, âAll right. Your Majesty, since you want so many Shadow Guardians to fight against me⦠Iâll accept the challenge.â
Longâs eyes brightened. He knew that Doctor Liu was a great martial artist, but he didnât think that all the fifty Shadow Guardians would still lose to him!
Soon, the fight started. Long stood by and watched his Shadow Guardians surround Doctor Liu.
Before they came, Long had given orders that they didnât need to kill Doctor Liu, but they could do anything to beat him. Any trick could be used.
The Shadow Guardians understood and they tried their best to beat Doctor Liu!
Doctor Liu soon realized that and he felt a little helpless.
The Shadow Guardians were all barehanded, but they were really experts at martial arts.
Therefore, even though Doctor Liu was a good martial artist, he was heavily outnumbered and beaten badly by them.
When the fifty Shadow Guardians stopped, Doctor Liuâs face had become swollen.
It was because Long had instructed the Shadow Guardians earlier to try to punch that doctor on the face!
âHahahaâ¦â Looking at Doctor Liuâs face, Long laughed happily.
Doctor Liuâs lips twitched.
After Long waved back the Shadow Guardians, he walked to Doctor Liu and said with a smile, âWhoa, who is this? I can barely recognize you!â
Doctor Liu didnât say anything.
He really wanted to say, âYour Majesty, you are so childis.h.!.+â
Doctor Liu didnât get the chance to say it out loud, because Long had patted him on the shoulder.
âI wonât disturb you. Please have a good rest. Goodbye.â
Doctor Liu became speechless.
After Long left, Doctor Liu sighed and went back to his room.
The injury on his face wasnât a big problem. With some medicine⦠it would be cured in just half a day.
However, heâd better not see anyone during this periodâ¦
