Chapter 363 His Highness the Crown Prince is Outstandingly Talented (1)
"Host, this mission is a bit special, I can't go with you."
Before Lin Shen fainted, he heard 003 say this and couldn't help but wonder: Was the world we went to this time very advanced?
When Lin Shen woke up, he felt dizzy and weak all over. He could hear all sorts of noises around him, and he didn't know who was whispering and moving around in his ear.
He tried to open his eyes, but everything was blurry and he couldn't see anything clearly except for a blurry figure moving in front of him.
"Don't shake me..." Lin Shen muttered, feeling uncomfortable from being shaken.
A pair of hands rested on his forehead, broad and warm.
"Abao..."
Lin Shen heard someone call him that, and it sounded so familiar.
Ah Bao...
……
Inside the East Palace's sleeping quarters, a moon-white silk gauze curtain hangs on a rosewood frame, its corners adorned with silver-embroidered phoenixes carrying branches. When a gentle breeze blows, the gauze curtain flutters like flowing clouds.
Three rows of ebony bookshelves stand under the south window, neatly arranged with classics, histories, philosophical works, and collections of poems by famous writers, and some rare books are casually arranged.
The incense burner was burning ambergris, and the wisps of smoke curled up and clung to the crystal chandelier hanging from the beams, making the scholarly atmosphere in the room even more warm and inviting.
A petite figure lay on a canopy bed covered with a ferret-fur cushion.
Her snow-white face was flushed with fever, and she was covered with a snow-white mink fur quilt. Her little hands were tightly clutching the quilt, and her wrinkled face was heartbreaking to see.
The soft couch by the window was covered with cushions, and a celadon vase on the low table held newly picked green plum blossoms. Several books of commentaries were stacked beside it. The tall and handsome man pinched the bridge of his nose, his black brocade robe was casually draped over his shoulders, and his black hair was loose and not standing up.
Below, a dense crowd of people knelt, sweating profusely.
The old eunuch stood trembling beside him, his obese body shaking slightly, not daring to utter a single word.
What about his ancestors? Why haven't they woken up yet?
His Majesty has not attended court for three days. Now everyone is on edge, and His Majesty's face is growing darker every day.
He is now hoping that the Crown Prince will wake up soon.
Otherwise, His Majesty would probably have collapsed first.
"Mmm..." The person on the bed let out a soft moan, which sent shivers down one's spine.
Emperor Qi suddenly stood up. His body, which had not rested for many days, was so excited that his head was congested with blood and he almost fell over. The old eunuch quickly stepped forward to support him.
"His Majesty!"
"It's nothing." Emperor Qi pushed away the old eunuch's hand, walked unsteadily to the bedside and sat down, carefully lifting the small hand of the fragile doll on the bed.
"Father is here."
Emperor Qi held those two soft, white hands tightly in his large hands, but then loosened his grip slightly, afraid of hurting them.
The person on the bed opened their eyes with a slight tremor of their eyelashes, their beautiful eyes still bloodshot.
When Lin Shen woke up, all he saw was a white gauze curtain. His body felt limp and weak, and he felt hot. He felt like he was going to die from the heat.
"Abao..." When Emperor Qi saw the little man open his eyes, he immediately moved closer.
Lin Shen saw the man in front of him, his eyelashes trembling slightly as he looked confused. He decided it was best to remain silent for now.
"Li Quan, bring the medicine!"
Emperor Qi frowned and gently bent down to help the little man on the bed to lean against the edge of the bed. He then took a pillow and placed it under the man's waist. The old eunuch's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly picked up the medicine bowl on the table and handed it over.
Emperor Qi took the medicine bowl, used his right hand to take a spoonful, blew on it gently, and carefully brought it to Abao's lips. "It's a little bitter. After you finish drinking it, Father will give Abao some candied fruit."
A gentle, affectionate voice reached Lin Shen's ears, like someone coaxing a child. Without hesitation, Lin Shen opened his mouth and drank it, his brows furrowing in bitterness.
Emperor Qi frowned as he looked at the petite figure on the bed, whose pale face was flushed from illness and whose eyes were bloodshot. Seeing him frown, Emperor Qi's heart ached as well.
"Are all you imperial physicians useless? My precious Abao is suffering from bitterness, can't you make it sweeter?"
The old eunuch, trembling with fear, twitched at the corner of his mouth. "Doesn't Your Majesty know that good medicine tastes bitter but is good for the disease?"
The kneeling imperial physician was completely bewildered.
Emperor Qi did not expect them to speak; a bunch of old fools could not say anything good. His crown prince was much better.
Lin Shen quietly drank his medicine, accepting the stories of this world and his memories.
This is a time-travel novel called "Time-Travel: Sweet and Pampered Wife - The Empress's Peerless Beauty".
The story mainly revolves around Su Tian, an ordinary college student from modern times, who transmigrates into the body of a peasant girl in ancient times. She then meets Su Hezhou, an orphan from the same village, who is handsome and tall. Su Tian can't help but spend more time with him and falls in love with him.
Su Tian knew she had transmigrated into a book. With her ability to know the plot in advance, she helped the male lead start a rebellion and became a rebel. Together, they overthrew the tyrannical Qi Kingdom, and in the end, the female lead and the male lead lived happily ever after.
The original owner of this body was that tyrannical emperor.
The original owner of this body had a truly tragic life.
A controlling father, a diametrically opposed brother, a pedophile teacher, a betraying confidant, a scheming family, a cuckolded wife, and finally, he is pierced by a thousand arrows.
The original owner was born as the crown prince and was raised by Emperor Qi. He was practically raised with great care and attention, and could even throw memorials around like a game. However, as he grew up, he gradually grew to dislike being controlled and began to rebel.
In order to control the original owner, Emperor Qi deposed and reinstated him three times, almost exhausting the bond between father and son.
But in the end, the original owner still ascended to the throne.
Even if the original owner and Emperor Qi had a very unpleasant falling out, Emperor Qi never thought of letting anyone else inherit his position. In his eyes, the country belonged to the original owner, and no one else could inherit it.
But this person, who was so exceptionally talented and emerged from a sea of corpses, was killed by two traitors who had stolen the country.
It was truly unexpected.
He's only five years old now, so the story is still a long way off.
Emperor Qi still treated the original owner of the body with utmost care, as if she were afraid she would melt in his mouth or break in his hands.
After Lin Shen finished his medicine, a piece of candied fruit was stuffed into his mouth. It was sweet and delicious, and his eyelids began to tremble again. Emperor Qi gently patted his head with his large hand, his voice so soft it could drip water, "A Bao, go to sleep if you're sleepy. Father will stay with you."
Lin Shen nodded subconsciously. Emperor Qi reached out and helped him lie down, then took off his outer robe and got onto the bed. He wrapped the little man in his arms, gently patted his back, and sang a little tune.
Lin Shen unexpectedly felt relaxed, as if his entire soul had been soothed.
This tune sounds so familiar...
