Jin Wang carried Ye Shu back to his quarters and was immediately welcomed by an eunuch.

He handed over the plum branch in his hand and ordered, "Summon the imperial physician." Then he strode into the hall.

Jin Wang placed Ye Shu on a small bed and took off his snow-covered fox fur coat and outer clothes. He took the ginger tea from the eunuch and fed it to Ye Shu.

Ye Shu reached out to take it, "I'll do it myself — —"

Jin Wang frowned slightly. Ye Shu immediately withdrew his hand and obediently drank a mouthful of tea.

After Ye Shu finished drinking the ginger tea, Jin Wang pulled a blanket over him and wrapped him up, "How do you feel now? Do you still feel uncomfortable?"

Ye Shu shook his head.

He had gone too far just now and when he walked back, he did feel some pain in his stomach. Jin Wang was so scared that he hurriedly carried him back.

However, it was only a moment of discomfort and he was fine now.

Jin Wang held Ye Shu's cold hands in his palms and coldly said, "I'll let you play again."

Ye Shu shrank into the blanket and did not dare to reply.

His gaze swept to Jin Wang's forearm. Under his sleeve, he could vaguely see some bloodstained bandages. He anxiously said, "Did your wound open again? Let me see — —"

"Don't move." Jin Wang held him down and did not take it to heart, "This small wound is nothing — —"

He paused and changed the topic under Ye Shu's resentful gaze, "Alright, I'll have the imperial physician bandage it again in a moment."

Ye Shu softly said, "En."

The eunuch brought over a jade bottle.

The plum branch that Ye Shu had casually plucked earlier was inserted into the bottle. The snow on the branch had been melted by the heat from the fire in the room. The delicate petals looked as if they had been washed by water and the snow dripped down.

Jin Wang placed the jade bottle on the small table that he usually used to handle official business.

Ye Shu watched his careful movements and burst out laughing.

How could this person be so … silly?

So cute.

Jin Wang asked, "What's wrong?"

"I … I'm fine."

Ye Shu held back his laughter and shook his head. "Your Majesty, this flower won't live for long if it's plucked. Why do you still need to 'plant' it?"

"It's okay." Jin Wang gently fiddled with the petals and said in a low voice, "This way, I can live for two more days."

Ye Shu understood what he was implying.

Because you gave it to me, I wanted it to live for a few more days.

Ye Shu's heart skipped a beat.

He closed his eyes and moved back a little. He patted the empty seat beside him and said, "Your Majesty, please sit here."

Jin Wang went over and sat down.

Ye Shu rolled off the couch and into his arms.

"You —" Jin Wang hurriedly caught him.

Ye Shu rested his head on Jin Wang's lap and wrapped his arms around Jin Wang's waist. He smiled and said, "This is comfortable.

Your Majesty, please let me lie down for a while. "

Jin Wang said, "But I haven't changed my clothes yet."

Ye Shu grabbed onto his clothes and closed his eyes. "No need. Just lie down for a while."

Jin Wang responded softly. His hand landed on the back of Ye Shu's head and stroked it.

The hall was silent for a moment. Ye Shu suddenly called out, "Jin Wang."

"Hm?"

Ye Shu seemed to be a little tired. His voice was weak and very soft. "This is the first time someone has played with me in the snow."

Jin Wang's movements paused.

"When I was young, it didn't snow. It would snow once or twice a year, but no one was willing to play with me.

When I grew up … it was even harder to find someone to play with me. "

Jin Wang asked, "Was it when you were at the General's Residence?"

Ye Shu laughed. "No, it wasn't."

It was at the orphanage.

At that time, his legs were disabled and he couldn't stand up. No one was willing to play with him.

Jin Wang didn't continue asking. He said gently, "I'll play with you again next year. I'll play with you every year."

Ye Shu thought for a moment, then shook his head. "… I think it's better not."

He turned over and looked up at him. "The snowman you made is too ugly."

"…" Jin Wang said seriously, "I can practice more."

It was like cooking. He didn't know how, but he was willing to learn.

Ye Shu gazed at his handsome face and laughed softly. "Alright."

He suddenly asked, "Winter has only just begun this year. Why wait until next year?"

Jin Wang's expression froze.

Ye Shu had a rare chance to see the monarch's dazed expression up close. He held back his laughter and continued to ask, "You won't let me play with snow these past few days, but next year I can. Why is that?"

"Because …" Jin Wang said hesitantly.

Ye Shu asked, "Because of what?"

Jin Wang didn't answer. His gaze moved to Ye Shu's lower abdomen.

He had specifically asked the imperial physician. Ye Shu's body was thin, so it wasn't easy for his pregnancy to show.

He was afraid that it would only start to show a little in April or May.

As the fetus stabilized, Ye Shu's abnormalities would lessen. If he wanted to keep it a secret, he could keep it a secret for a long time.

In the beginning, he didn't dare to tell Ye Shu because there were many misunderstandings between them. He was worried that this person wouldn't be able to accept it.

But now that his relationship with Ye Shu had improved, he still didn't dare to tell the truth.

If he told the truth now, would this person be angry with him? Would he try to escape again?

But if he didn't say anything, it would be unfair to this person.

It was rare for the monarch to feel a little timid. He didn't know what to do.

Ye Shu tugged on his sleeve and urged in a low voice, "Your Majesty, why are you ignoring me?"

"… It's nothing."

Jin Wang looked away and said with difficulty, "The imperial physician said that you haven't been feeling well recently. You need to recuperate for a few months. When you're better in a few months, you'll naturally be able to do whatever you want."

Ye Shu: "…"

This. Idiot!

He had asked that question on purpose.

Ye Shu was actually in a good mood tonight.

Whether it was Jin Wang getting injured because of him or the way he handled Chang Yuan, he had a good impression of him.

He had originally thought that if this person could be honest with him and sincerely apologize, he might consider forgiving him.

But now …

Dream on.

Dog Emperor.

The Kun Monarch's emotions fluctuated greatly during pregnancy. The more Ye Shu thought about it, the angrier he got. He snorted and sat up.

Jin Wang: "…"

Did I say something wrong again?

Jin Wang pulled him back. "Where are you going?"

"It's none of your business!" Ye Shu angrily shook off his hand. Just as he got off the bed, he felt a burst of pain in his abdomen.

Jin Wang hurriedly supported him. "I told you not to walk around. Come and lie down."

"I don't —"

Ye Shu reached out to push him. At this moment, a chamberlain led Imperial Physician Feng in. "Your Majesty, Imperial Physician Feng has arrived."

The two of them stopped moving.

Jin Wang carried him back to the small bed without any explanation. He turned to Imperial Physician Feng and said, "His abdomen is unwell. I'll have to trouble Imperial Physician Feng to treat him."

Imperial Physician Feng glanced at His Majesty's expression and then looked at Ye Shu who was sulking on the small bed. He understood.

He had heard that His Majesty had gone to Chengqian Palace to sit for a long time. It seemed that it was true.

This made the Imperial Concubine angry.

Imperial Physician Feng sighed in his heart and sat down to take Ye Shu's pulse.

A moment later, Imperial Physician Feng said, "Young Master's body is fine. It's just that he caught a cold today and his emotions are fluctuating. That's why … cough, he's a little unwell.

He should be fine after resting in bed for the next few days and maintaining a calm mind. "

Ye Shu glared at Jin Wang and coldly snorted. "With a certain someone around, I can't maintain a calm mind."

Jin Wang: "… …"

Imperial Physician Feng also looked at Jin Wang.

Jin Wang pressed his forehead and said to Imperial Physician Feng, "Come with me."

The two of them went to the warm room in the side hall.

Jin Wang dismissed his attendants and showed Imperial Physician Feng the injury on his arm.

Imperial Physician Feng was shocked. "Your Majesty, this is … …"

Jin Wang calmly ordered, "After we leave this room, I hope that Imperial Physician Feng will pretend that nothing happened. Don't make a fuss."

"… … Yes."

Imperial Physician Feng sat down to help Jin Wang treat his injury. He had a faint guess in his heart.

It seems that today's matter wasn't as simple as he thought.

He originally thought that His Majesty went to Chengqian Palace to have a beauty in his arms, and the Imperial Concubine chased after him outside the palace. The two of them didn't agree and quarreled. This caused the Imperial Concubine to feel unwell and almost affected her pregnancy.

Now, combined with the injury on His Majesty's arm, he was afraid that not only did the two of them quarrel, they also fought.

He didn't know if the Imperial Concubine was injured or not.

The more Imperial Physician Feng thought about it, the more alarmed he became. On one hand, he admired the Imperial Concubine. She was worthy of being Ye Xiang in the past. Even though she was now under someone else's control, she was still so courageous.

On the other hand, he couldn't help but feel worried for him. If this continued, how could his body withstand it?

It seemed that the abortion medicine must be sent to the Imperial Concubine as soon as possible.

Jin Wang didn't know what this person was thinking and asked, "Is the Imperial Concubine's body really alright?"

Imperial Physician Feng raised his head and looked at Jin Wang. The words' you still have the face to ask 'were clearly written in his eyes.

He shook his head. "Young Master's body is fine, but there's something in his heart."

Jin Wang: "?"

Imperial Physician Feng sighed heavily and earnestly advised, "Young Master is already two months pregnant and can't withstand any provocation. This official boldly says that what you are doing … … is really inappropriate."

Jin Wang: "… …"

What did I do???
