Shen Yu didn't know what happened to Shang Junlin, but he was woken up in the middle of the night.
"Your Majesty …" Shen Yu bit his lips and groaned, "Let go …"
No matter how Shen Yu struggled and begged for mercy, the man didn't seem to hear him. Shen Yu was furious and kicked him.
Then, he was dragged back and only fell into a deep sleep when the sun rose.
When he woke up, all the bones in his body felt like they had fallen apart. It was difficult to even lift a finger.
His body was dry and there was a cup beside the bed. Shen Yu slowly sat up and took a sip from the cup.
It was warm water with honey.
After drinking the whole cup, Shen Yu's throat felt better. He said, "Mu Xi."
There was a rustling sound outside. After a while, Mu Xi came in with a bowl of hot porridge, "Young Master, you're awake?"
"What time is it now?"
"It's noon."
Shen Yu wasn't surprised by this result. If Shang Junlin didn't restrain himself, he would wake up at this time the next day.
Shen Yu finished the porridge and put the bowl aside, "Where's Her Majesty?"
"Her Majesty is discussing matters with the ministers."
The Prince of Yue was arrested, but this matter was far from over. Whether it was the Prince of Yue's own forces or the forces left to him by the previous Emperor, Shang Junlin had to deal with them.
The sooner he dealt with them, the better.
Shen Yu couldn't get out of bed, so he asked Mu Xi to find a few storybooks to read.
After reading for a while, Shen Yu felt a little uncomfortable. He put down the book, "I'll sleep for a while."
Mu Xi packed up her things and left.
When Shang Junlin came back, the bedchamber was quiet. The palace servants were very careful and tried not to make a sound. This situation only happened when the master was sleeping.
Shang Junlin took off his cloak and entered the bedchamber.
The bedchamber was quiet. The doors and windows were closed, and it was slightly dim. Shang Junlin went straight to the bed and saw Shen Yu, whose face was red from sleep.
For a moment, her heart softened.
Shang Junlin sat beside the bed and reached out to touch Shen Yu's face. It was a little hot. Shang Junlin paused and touched Shen Yu's forehead.
The temperature was indeed a little high.
Shang Junlin frowned, got up and walked out.
Mu Xi was waiting outside. Shang Junlin knew that she was Shen Yu's head palace maid and was very trusted by him.
"When did you wake up today? When did you sleep? "
Mu Xi answered them one by one.
"Did he behave strangely today?"
Mu Xi thought about it carefully and shook his head.
"What did Your Highness do today?"
"Replying to Your Majesty, after His Highness woke up, he ate a bowl of porridge and read a book for about an hour. After that, he slept."
Shang Junlin calculated the time and found that Shen Yu had slept for almost two hours.
"Meng Chang, go get Imperial Physician Gu."
Imperial Physician Gu was hurriedly invited to Yuzhang Palace.
Shang Junlin sat beside the bed and stroked Shen Yu's hair from time to time. His face was not very good.
"No need to salute. Just feel His Highness's pulse."
A white hand stretched out from the bed curtain. The white skin was covered with red marks. Imperial Physician Gu only glanced at it and then looked away to focus on feeling His Highness's pulse.
"Your Highness has some symptoms of a cold. I will prescribe a medicine. After taking it, Your Highness will recover in two to three days."
Imperial Physician Gu wrote down the prescription and a palace servant immediately took it to get the medicine.
Shang Junlin carefully put Shen Yu's arm back under the quilt. "Is Your Highness's body seriously injured? How did he catch a cold? "
"Rest assured, Your Highness. Your Highness's body is fine. The cold may be because he caught a cold. It's nothing serious."
As for why he caught a cold, Imperial Physician Gu did not dare to guess.
Thinking of what happened last night, Shang Junlin was annoyed. After he got up, he checked Shen Yu's temperature. After confirming that he was fine, he left. After a while, he came back and found that Shen Yu had a fever.
When Imperial Physician Gu recalled the red marks he had seen in a hurry, he couldn't help but say, "Your Majesty, His Majesty's body can't withstand the torment. The fever this time is partly because he caught a cold, and another reason is …"
He did not continue and paused for a moment. "If Your Highness is considerate of Your Highness's health, please restrain yourself a little."
Shang Junlin's face became more and more ugly. The palace servants could not help but tremble. They did not dare to breathe loudly. Imperial Physician Gu knew that his words would anger the emperor, but it was the truth. He had to say it.
In the silence where a pin drop could be heard, the chuckle from the bed curtain was unusually obvious. It instantly broke the suffocating atmosphere.
In his sleep, Shen Yu vaguely heard Shang Junlin's voice. He woke up little by little and happened to hear Imperial Physician Gu's words. He could not help but laugh.
Shang Junlin did not have time to be angry with Imperial Physician Gu. He quickly leaned over and asked, "A Yu is awake? Are you feeling unwell? "
"I'm a little thirsty." Shen Yu's voice was a little hoarse.
Mu Xi, who was serving at the side, quickly came over with warm water. Shang Junlin helped Shen Yu up and let him lean on his body. He held the cup with one hand and put it next to Shen Yu's mouth.
Shen Yu's body was sore and weak. He did not want to raise his hand. He drank the water in the cup with Shang Junlin's hand.
His throat finally felt more comfortable.
When the bed curtain was pulled open, he saw Imperial Physician Gu standing at the side. He belatedly realized that his body temperature was too high.
No wonder he felt unwell. It turned out that he was sick.
Imperial Physician Gu had already done what he needed to do. He did not stay to disturb the two of them. He took the medicine box and left.
Shen Yu was lying in Shang Junlin's arms. His body was covered with a thick quilt. His face was abnormally red and his breath was hotter than usual.
"Did Your Majesty hear what Imperial Physician Gu said just now?" Shen Yu joked, "In the future, Your Majesty should restrain yourself more."
"It's my fault." Shang Junlin's tone was a little gloomy, "I shouldn't have disturbed you last night."
If it were not for him, Shen Yu would not have to suffer like this.
"What happened to Your Majesty yesterday?" Shen Yu did not forget that when Shang Junlin hugged him, he repeatedly emphasized in his ear that he could only be his.
He also forced him to respond again and again …
Cough. Shen Yu touched his burning ears. This time, it was not caused by a fever.
Shang Junlin was immersed in deep self-blame and did not hear Shen Yu's words.
Shen Yu waited for a long time. When he did not receive an answer, he looked up at Shang Junlin.
Shen Yu was stunned when he saw the man's guilt-filled eyes. He pursed his lips.
He pursed his lips. He knew his own body very well. If he hadn't taken good care of himself in the Imperial Palace, it wouldn't have been strange for him to get sick every few days. Shang Junlin had protected him too well. In the past year or so, other than a few accidents, he had almost never gotten sick. Normal people often caught colds, so he couldn't blame Shang Junlin for his illness this time.
His hand was tightly held by the man under the quilt. Shen Yu tilted his head and rubbed his cheek against Shang Junlin, "Your Majesty, what are you thinking about? You didn't even hear what I said."
The warm and tender touch pulled Shang Junlin out of his guilty mood. He was about to say something when Shen Yu stopped him with his lips.
"Your Majesty, don't say anything I don't want to hear."
Shen Yu's body temperature was much higher than usual. Under the touch of her soft lips, Shang Junlin forgot what he wanted to say. When Shen Yu retreated, he could not help but want to chase after her.
Shen Yu could not avoid it, nor did he want to. His long eyelashes fluttered like butterfly wings, and he slowly closed his eyes.
It was a kiss full of tenderness.
After it was over, Shen Yu leaned on Shang Junlin's body and his breathing became heavier.
Shang Junlin touched his forehead, "You're sick, but you still teased me."
Shen Yu snuggled into a comfortable position in his arms. "Her Majesty hasn't said what happened yesterday."
Although Shang Junlin liked to do that kind of thing, he would not completely ignore Shen Yu's feelings. Last night, Shang Junlin was very different from before. If he was not provoked, Shen Yu did not think that he would do such a thing.
Shang Junlin's hands paused for a moment, "Yesterday, you stared at Gu Huai for a long time. What were you thinking at that time?"
Shen Yu remembered that when he and Shang Junlin were in the teahouse, he saw Gu Huai in full armor and thought of the Gu Huai he knew in his previous life. He could not help but feel a little emotional.
"Your Majesty, what do you think I was thinking?" Shen Yu turned over and looked into Shang Junlin's eyes, face to face.
Shen Yu's gaze was as usual. Shang Junlin liked his eyes very much, especially when he saw his own reflection in them.
Shang Junlin moved his hand down and covered Shen Yu's eyes. Such clear eyes reflected his own unbearable feelings.
"A Yu can't think about anything." Shang Junlin's voice was slightly hoarse.
"Your Majesty, what are you worried about?" Shen Yu roughly understood that Shang Junlin was jealous.
Shen Yu was used to Shang Junlin's jealousy, but he did not know why the aftereffects were so strong this time. He even made a fuss in the middle of the night.
"Your Majesty, you don't have to worry about anything. I can guarantee that what Your Majesty is afraid of will not happen. Other than Your Majesty, there is no other person in my heart." Shen Yu's voice was not loud, but it was powerful.
Shang Junlin knew that he should trust Shen Yu, but he could not help it. Would A Yu, who was so good, not be willing to stay for him one day?
"I know that I will never allow anyone to take my place." Shang Junlin moved his finger down and lifted Shen Yu's chin. "A Yu can only belong to me forever!"
"So, last night, Your Majesty thought that I would fall in love with Gu Huai?"
Shang Junlin did not deny it. "A Yu has always been very concerned about him."
"If that's the case, I also care about Prince Yue, Jiang Huaiqing, Shen Qingran … Does that mean Your Majesty thinks that I will fall in love with them?"
Shang Junlin pursed his lips and did not say a word.
Shen Yu narrowed her eyes and suddenly leaned forward to bite Shang Junlin's face. "Your Majesty, even if you don't believe me, you should believe in yourself. In this world, who can compare to Your Majesty? Why would I give up such a good Majesty and choose someone who is not as good as you?"
"I am not as good as A Yu says. I have a lot of unbearable things …"
Shen Yu bit him again. "I won't allow anyone to belittle the person I like, even if that person is Your Majesty."
Shen Yu bit down hard. After her lips left, she left a bite mark on the man's face. Looking at her masterpiece, Shen Yu was in a good mood.
The pain on his face was almost negligible, but the soreness in his heart could not be ignored. Shang Junlin hugged the person in his arms tightly. The joy in his heart seemed to be about to fly out.
Shen Yu closed his eyes and allowed Shang Junlin to peck his face like a puppy. He liked the feeling of being needed by Shang Junlin. It made him feel that he was truly living in this world.
Shen Yu struggled to reach out from under the quilt and hugged Shang Junlin back. Since this matter was resolved, it was time to settle another matter.
"Shouldn't Your Majesty give me an explanation for what happened last night?"
Shen Yu could clearly feel that Shang Junlin's body stiffened.
