 Translated by : Kumis Muscle Subs

    Lu Qing's misty doubts in his heart dissipated, and he didn't think about it any further.

    Also, Ning Juan had never even seen Chen Xiaodao, so how could he have any problem with him.

    At the same time Chang shun ordered someone to call the imperial physician, and lunch was also being sent.

In the early days, Guanglu Temple was responsible for the emperor's meals, but the food cooked by Guanglu Temple was really unpalatable, that only the frugal founding emperor did not mind.

So the intolerable emperors have their own kitchens in the Qianqing Palace, and most of the eunuchs have no objection, and they test the food as much as possible, and the taste is quite good.

    Lu Qing is not in good health and has a poor appetite. In the past, he put down his chopsticks after taking two bites. Today, he had an appetizing melon and eggplant, so he couldn't help but eat more.

    Ning Juan glanced silently, then lowered his eyes and buried his head to eat.

    Lu Qing put aside his chopsticks and looked at the little guy with interest.

    The little emperor has been eating well for some time, and his skinny little face has developed some tender little milk fat, and his long eyelashes are covered low, and his eyes are dark and bright, and he is becoming more and more beautiful like a porcelain doll.

    Lu Qingze can't help but think, after solving the internal and external problems, maybe he can find a girl he likes to marry. If he could have a beautiful child, it would be even more perfect.

    When he was thinking about it, Ning, who had been stared for a while, could not bear to speak: "What are you staring at me for?"

    Lu Qing's eyes folded slightly, and he smiled: "Looking at how cute your majesty is."

    Ning Juan had been fed up with the cynicism and contempt and abuse of the palace servants since childhood. Naturally, no one would say such things to him. His eyes widened and his ears warmed. After a while he burst out a word: “Mischievous!” 

    Children are so funny.

    Seeing his cramped look, Lu Qing held back a smile in his heart: "This minister is guilty."

    Ning wearily glared at him in shame.

    From the first time they met, he could see that Lu Qing was acting all mischievous even when he knew that he is at wrong and he also didn't show any respect for him at all.

    But unlike those ministers and palace people who look down on him, Lu Qingze really just ...... treats him as a simple child.

    He’s keep being more bold each time.

    A little bit of displeasure.

    But there is no distasteful feeling either.

    After lunch, the imperial physician came to diagnose Lu Qingze's pulse and prescribed a new prescription.

    Lu Qingzhe loyal and brave, even if he’s persecuted by the eunuchs, there are people in the court that admire him, such as this doctor, after seeing his weak look, can not help but to urge two more words: "Lord Lu hurt the core, do not think too much, recuperate well."

    The new prescription was sent by the doctor, and he took the new prescription to get the medicine.

    In front of the little emperor, Lu Qing took a sip of the new medicine without changing his face, choking in his heart.

    It was bitterer than the medicine Chen Xiaodao bought.

    During dinner, Lu Qing found that there was another melon and eggplant on the table.

    He couldn't help but look at Ning Juan.

    The little emperor ate his own food as if nothing had happened, noticed his gaze, and raised his head to stare: "What are you looking at?"

    Lu Qing said leisurely: "It's nothing, I just suddenly wanted to eat sugar steamed crispy cheese."

    Ning Juan looked at Chang shun subconsciously.

    He heard a muffled chuckle from the other side.

    Ning Juan clenched the jade chopsticks tightly: "..."

    Lu Qing blinked innocently: "What are you doing, Your Majesty, eat vegetables, eat more, and grow taller."

    Chang shun swallowed his saliva, and silently shrank back into the corner. He was extremely glad that the little emperor didn't have the habit of throwing tantrum.

     Master Lu is really... too bold.

     Qianqing Palace has many warm pavilions, Lu Qingzhi temporarily live in the one not far from the young emperor.

    The night has completely fallen, the warmth of the day has been dissipated.

    Lu Qingze's physique was extremely cold. After the warm atmosphere cooled down, the coolness seemed to have sucked all the heat from the quilt. His hands and feet were like blocks of ice, and he couldn't feel warm at all.

    The whole palace is silent, the crows are silent, Lu Qing is so cold that he can't sleep, so he can only get up and wants to go out to find the chamberlain on duty to help pour hot water.

    Once outside, he bumped into a chamberlain who looked familiar and was on duty in Qianqing Palace.

Because of his previous life's experience, Lu Qingzhi has developed an awareness, even if a tarzan suddenly jump out, he would not flinch, so a sudden appearance of the chambermaid does not scare him.

    He looked at the other party calmly: "This eunuch, what do you want to do in front of my house when you are not sleeping in the middle of the night?"

    The chamberlain also did not expect to directly collide with him, he’s scared and gave a big jump, and tried his best to shush: "Lord Lu, Lord Lu, keep your voice down, do not let anyone hear!"

    Seeing that he neither came to assassinate nor steal, Lu Qing raised his eyebrows.

    The waiter smiled flatteringly: "This servant is entrusted by the noble to bring you something."

    Lu Qingzhe vaguely guessed a few points.

    Sure enough, the servant took out a piece of Hetian white jade pendant from his arms, and attached to it is a silk with a few lines written on it. Because there is no light outside, he could not see exactly what was written.

    "The noble man said that this is just a small gift. if your Excellency is willing to accept you can choose a rare treasures in the future."

    Lu Qing wrapped his cloak tightly, leaned lazily on the pillar, and took the jade pendant.

The carving is exquisite, the texture is moist, at a glance it is worth a lot of money.

    He twirled the silk, squinted his eyes and smiled, "Okay, I'll take it."

    The contempt in the servant's eyes flashed past.

     Then he heard a faint question from overhead: "What else did that nobleman say?."

Hearing this tone of voice, the chamberlain felt something wrong, peeked up to look, and met a gaze as frosty as snow.

   

His cold sweat unconsciously emerged, knowing that in front of him was a sickly man who had to take three steps to gasp for breath, but his lips somehow trembled: "The nobleman said that Lord Lu followed small ...... follow His Majesty ...... "

    His voice was getting lower and lower, and he couldn't speak.

    A voice suddenly sounded: "Follow me, what?"

    Ning Juan came out of the shadows, and half of his face was hidden in the darkness.

        I do not know how much I heard.

    The chamberlain's face turned white and he knelt to the ground with a thud: "Your Majesty spare my life! Your Majesty spare my life!"

    The little emperor walked over to Lu Qingze with a blank face, and repeated, "Ning Cong said, follow me, what?"

    The tone of the gesture was too terrifying, and the extremely oppressive eyes shrouded it, not like what a child of this age could emit, the chamberlain simply clanking wildly kowtowing, not daring to squeak.

    Ning Juan nodded calmly: "It seems that you want to die."

    Hearing the killing intent in this voice, under the utter fear, the chamberlain blurted out: "His Royal Highness the King of Shu said that following His Majesty, His Majesty cannot satisfy Lord Lu!"

    Lu Qingze: "..."

    Ning Lan: "..."

    The chamberlain also realized what he had said, thumping even harder, his head was broken, crying as he thumped and begging for mercy with slurred speech.

    Lu Qing choked.

    This King of Shu is really only thinking of perverted stuff and he actually associate him with Ning Juan, this little brat!

    Ning Juan stared gloomily at the servant on the ground, and when he heard Lu Qingze's voice, he turned to look at him angrily: "Are you still laughing?"

Lu Qingzhe immediately clenched his fist against his lips: "Ahem, Your Majesty, what are you going to do about it?"

    The noise was so loud that the palace staff on night duty rushed to the scene.

    The murderous aura floated in Ning's eyes: "Someone, drag this unfaithful servant down and as punishment hit him with fifty boards, if he is still breathing after the beating, throw him to the clothes-washing bureau."

    In TV shows, usually they shows people got beat up 500 times with big board, and after that they just rub some medicine. But in fact, if you’re alive after getting hit 50 times with big boards you’re absolutely lucky.

    If you die, you will die in pain.

    The waiter's body softened, and he lost his strength immediately.

    Chang shun winked, let someone drag him down, cleared his throat, and his slightly shrill voice was full of warnings: "Have you all seen it? Whoever disloyal to His Majesty, this is what will happen!"

    After the last robbery incident, the Qianqing Palace used that excuse to change the palace staff, all of whom were carefully selected by Changshun. The first time they saw the little emperor make a move, they were silent and agreed.

    Ning Juan didn't pay attention to others, waved his hand to signal everyone to step back, frowning at the jade pendant that Lu Qingze was playing with: "What are you still holding, don't tell me, you really want to accept it."

    Lu Qingzhe tilted his head, smiling wryly: "Why not?"

    Ning Juan's anger that had been suppressed a little bit rushed up again: "Didi you not get it! Do you really want to be Ning Zong's forbidden property?"

    Lu Qing pinched his face, annoyed: "What nonsense, this jade pendant has the logo of the Prince of Shu, it is useful to keep it."

    Ning Juan became even more angry: "What's the use, he gave you this jade pendant with the logo, just so you could go to him in person and when other people saw it, they shut and keep silent about it!”

    Lu Qingze couldn't say what use it could be, but his intuition told him that it would be useful to keep. Seeing that the little emperor ran out in only thin bedclothes, he stretched out his hand to touch it, and he was really cold. The tone is still loose and lazy: "why did you get so angry?."

    Ning Juan didn't know why he got so angry.

But as soon as he thought of Ning Zong desiring Lu Qingzhe and trying to steal him away, and his mind that filled with salacious masturbation about Lu Qingzhe, he can't help but want to get angry.

    The warm pavilion is lit up and bright, Lu Qingze stuffed Ning Juan into the quilt to warm up, the little emperor suddenly a jolt: "Why is it so cold in your quilt."

    Lu Qing secretly said: "Bear with me, qi deficiency body is cold."

    The cold plum fragrance and slightly bitter medicinal smell enveloped, Ning weary moved uncomfortably, and moved to the side.

    Lu Qingzhi didn't care, unfolded the silk that he had been clutching for a long time to see what kind of bullshit Ning Zong had written.

    A closer look, it really is bullshit.

    "Seeing that Lu Lang's skin is creamy, I give you a gift of fat jade, to complements each other. If I have the opportunity to appreciate and play together, there is no regret in this life."

    Lu Qing raised his eyebrows, and said indifferently: "It seems that he is going into the coffin with regret."

    Hearing this sentence, Ning Juan angered was suppressed.

    Not knowing if he can be affected, he couldn't help but look at Lu Qingze's hand.

    Those hands were indeed very beautiful.

    Each finger is like a white onion bamboo knot, long and slender, white as jade, vaguely visible light green veins, which is as pale as the beautiful jade of suet.

    Ning Juan just stared blankly at the corner of the hand that was holding the silk, and pressed against the candle, the flames lit up, and the slender fingers moved slowly and slowly, revealing a bit of calm and grace.

    Realizing what he was looking at, Ning Juan's expression changed.

Why is he paying attention to Lu Qingze like Ning Cong! Am i infected?

    The young emperor suddenly struggled a little, hastily jumped out from the warmth of the bed, and left the pavilion without saying a word.

    Lu Qing raised his eyes suspiciously, reluctant to left the heater in the quilt, did not follow him out, brushed his fingers, and lay down in confusion.

    What happened to this little majesty?
