Chapter 297 -297 Minister under the Skirt (19)

Xie Shu’s tone was off.

It made Chuzheng very uncomfortable.

“Nonsense,” Chuzheng released him and pulled him into her arms, “I just wanted to kiss you.”

When Xie Shu heard “I just wanted to kiss you,” he was somewhat dazed.

A slight warmth on his forehead, and the clear voice of the woman arose, “Sleep.”

Xie Shu thought he would not be able to sleep.

However, the fact was that he fell asleep almost immediately, and did not wake up in the middle of the night, sleeping until daylight.

When he woke up, he was alone, with a bird standing on the opposite rack, tilting its head looking at him.

Xie Shu pulled back the quilt, making sure no one had touched his underwear.

–

The big ship up front had departed, and the large boat set sail once again.

Xie Shu quietly recuperated from his injury. Since that day, Chuzheng only hugged him to sleep at night, at most kissing his forehead, never crossing the line to touch him again.

It was Yao Ye who came to change Xie Shu’s medicine for the first two days, and then it was Chuzheng’s turn.

At first, Xie Shu did not feel the pain because Murong Ce had used a special medicine on his wound, which allowed him to move around, and he did not feel pain.

He did not know what purpose Murong Ce had in mind, but it was definitely not to make him feel better…

But now the medicine had lost its effect, and the pain was intermittent.

Especially at night.

It felt as if something were pricking at the wound; the pain was so intense that he couldn’t sleep at all.

“What are you doing?” Tossing and turning like a pancake? If you don’t sleep, I need to! Not even letting me kiss you!

Xie Shu bit his teeth and kept silent.

Chuzheng felt the sweat on his face, “What’s wrong?”

“It’s nothing, I was wrong to disturb Miss Jun,” Xie Shu said, “I’ll go down.”

Chuzheng pressed him back, “Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?”

“No.”

Chuzheng leaned closer to him, “Really?”

Xie Shu endured for a moment, “…The wound hurts.”

“Weren’t you not in pain before?” She had not seen him in pain over so many days; how come now that it was beginning to heal, it hurt?

Xie Shu got up, “I’ll go down…”

Chuzheng pulled him back, and her palm landed on his knee, gentle Xuan Qi enveloping his legs, gradually easing the pain.

Yao Ye had said this could alleviate the pain.

But these days, Xie Shu had not complained of pain, and Chuzheng thought it wouldn’t be needed.

“Tell me if it hurts,” Chuzheng soothed, patting his shoulder.

Xie Shu remained silent, with only the sound of her heartbeat in his ears.

–

The pain caused by the healing of Xie Shu’s wounds lessened as the healing neared completion.

Xie Shu could now get out of bed and move around.

When it was time to change the medicine, Xie Shu said he would do it himself.

“Can you apply the medicine on your own?”

“Yes,” Xie Shu nodded.

“Then do it yourself,” Chuzheng piled the things next to him.

“…”

Xie Shu did not know whether she really cared about him or not; sometimes he felt she was meticulous in looking after him, and other times he felt she didn’t care that much.

Xie Shu applied the medicine himself.

There were quite a few bottles and jars Yao Ye had brought over, several kinds of medicine. Chuzheng had piled both the topical and the ingested ones together.

Xie Shu’s fingers traced over a porcelain bottle, hesitating.

Which one was for ingestion…

It seemed to be the green bottle, but there were two green porcelain bottles here.

He looked up towards the room, and Chuzheng was gone without him realizing when she had left.

Xie Shu could only pick one at random, they all looked like ointments for external use, and he assumed all the Elixir Pills could be ingested.

–

Chuzheng went down to ask how long it would be until arrival, and Hei Liu said that if they were quick, they would arrive in five to six days, but it would take longer if the weather was bad.

She returned to the upper deck, got delayed by Yao Ye for a while, and by the time she returned to the room, some time had passed.

Xie Shu had wrapped himself in a quilt, with just a bulge visible.

“I brought you something to eat.”

Xie Shu didn’t respond.

Chuzheng pulled down the quilt, “Xie Shu.”

The quilt did not move, Chuzheng tugged harder, and the quilt slid off.

Xie Shu was curled up, his whole body covered in cold sweat, his cheeks beet red, and his body frighteningly hot.

Chuzheng: “…”

Just gone for a little while, how did it turn out like this?!

“Xie Shu, what’s wrong?”

Xie Shu clenched his lips tightly, blood visible on them.

Chuzheng glanced at the medicine bottles nearby, she reached out and picked up one of them.

There were only ten pills inside, two were missing.

He didn’t eat them, did he?

This was something she had bought with a Black Xuan Stone before, she wasn’t clear on what effect it had…

At the time, the Shopkeeper’s expression was odd, and he said not to use it overmuch.

Now Chuzheng had a rough idea of what it actually did…

–

The next day.

Xie Shu leisurely awoke, the first thing he saw was the woman’s serene sleeping face, leaving him feeling bewildered.

The next second, Xie Shu reacted as if struck by lightning.

He sat up abruptly, the pain from his wound sharp as a needle’s prick due to the sudden movement.

Xie Shu’s movement was a bit too forceful. Chuzheng opened her eyes, her gaze clear, she shifted her body to the side, “What’s wrong?”

Xie Shu leaned against the inside wall, looking at her with shock and anger, “That medicine…”

Chuzheng looked utterly earnest, “You took it yourself.”

It had nothing to do with me.

Xie Shu’s face turned ugly, he bit down on his teeth, “You put it in there!”

How could that sort of medicine appear inside there out of nowhere? Who would believe it wasn’t intentional?

“I’ve always kept them together, and today you insisted on dealing with the medicine yourself.” Up until this point I didn’t know what it was! It has nothing to do with me! I won’t take the blame for this.

Xie Shu stared at her, the corners of his mouth lifting in a cold sneer, “That’s what you’ve been planning all along, isn’t it?”

“I didn’t.”

Xie Shu spoke as if he hadn’t heard her, “Besides… since I am bought by you, whatever you want to do to me, how could I possibly refuse? My life is yours after all.”

He had thought she was different.

Turned out he had been wrong.

Chuzheng declared coldly with a distant look, “Xie Shu, you took the medicine yourself.”
