King's favor is hard to do

Du Yuzhang was so sad that he was speechless.In a daze, it seemed that someone picked him up, pinched his mouth open with his fingers, and stuffed something bitter into it.

That's medicine.

Then, two pieces of warm things leaned over his lips, and he crossed into the cool spring water of sweet rain.Du Yuzhang was extremely thirsty, sucking greedily, even after Gan Lin was swallowed by him, he still sucked the two pieces of soft stuff, unwilling to let it go away...

He knew it was all an illusion, but when the soft and warm thing left the tip of his tongue, Du Yuzhang still had some nostalgia.

He was so tired he couldn't keep his eyelids open.In the haze, it seemed that someone was gently stroking his hair, holding his face in his arms,

"It's okay... don't be afraid... I'm..."

Then, there was a long sigh.

……

When Du Yuzhang woke up, he found himself lying on Li Guangning's lap.

He twitched uneasily.A hand stretched out - Du Yuzhang looked up secretly, and found that Li Guangning was scratching his chin with one hand, as if teasing a kitten.

He held a piece of paper in his other hand and read it intently.

That's... the prescription written by Dr. Zheng?

Du Yuzhang felt nervous for a while, and hurriedly lowered his head to look at the ground.Unexpectedly, the hand that kneaded his chin lifted his chin again, causing him to raise his head.

Li Guangning couldn't see any joy or anger on his face.he asked in a low voice,

"I just asked a question, but Du Qing hasn't answered yet."

"...what?"

"Tell me, what did Qing Du do this morning?"

Du Yuzhang's heart tightened.He knew that the prescriptions prescribed by the Tai Hospital were marked with time.He didn't dare to hide it any more, so he said boldly,

"The minister went to the Imperial Hospital."

"Why bully you?"

"minister……"

Unable to think of an excuse for a while, Du Yuzhang suddenly remembered what Dr. Zheng said in the morning, and answered with all his heart,

"The minister is afraid that His Majesty will be troubled."

"Annoyed? Why am I bothered?"

"The minister is just a little sick. I'm afraid His Majesty will find out and worry for the minister."

Li Guangning was silent for a moment, then said in a deep voice,

"Since you are afraid that I will be worried, you should let me take care of you. You are still taking care of my Dayan's prime minister. If you suddenly fail, what will happen to my Dayan's government affairs? Who will take care of it for a while?"

"Your Majesty taught me."

"Next time if something happens, you have to report it to me as soon as possible. If you play such a clever trick again, I will never forgive you—remember?"

"I remember."

"Just remember it."

There was a silence.Li Guangning was thoughtful, his eyes only fixed on the prescription.Du Yuzhang nestled on his knee, feeling a hand slowly caressing his back.

There has never been such peace between the two of them for a long time.Du Yuzhang closed his eyes and pressed his cheek against Li Guangning's knee.

He carefully curled up, not moving at all, for fear of offending Li Guangning.He hoped that this moment would never pass.

Unfortunately, a eunuch came in a hurry and shattered Du Yuzhang's hopes as soon as he opened his mouth.

"Your Majesty! Concubine Xu, please see me!"

"Concubine Xu?"

Li Guangning sat up straight.Following this movement, Du Yuzhang lost his balance and fell to the ground.

Li Guangning ignored him, and only cared about asking the little eunuch,

"Concubine Xu asked to see her, why?"

"Concubine Xu said... there is something important, and I want to speak to Your Majesty in person." The little eunuch said so and looked at Du Yuzhang.It seems to imply that this matter is of great importance, but Du Yuzhang must not let him know.

"I see. Lead the way."

After finishing speaking, he left without saying a word to Du Yuzhang.
