1594 He Was Sticky All Over And It Felt Very Uncomfortable

Beitang You was rarely sick and even when he caught minor illnesses like a cold, he would be able to get through it if he clenched his teeth through it. He would never be absent from the imperial court just because of a minor illness like this.

However, he slept so soundly this time that it was evening by the time he woke up.

He was shocked to find out he had slept the entire day and he threw off his covers to get out of bed.

Zhang Yu walked in from outside and when he saw Beitang You dressing up in a hurry, he sighed and quickly tried to stop him. “You should be resting when you’re sick, Your Majesty. You have your subordinates to help you out with matters of the imperial court. There is no need to be in such a hurry today.”

Beitang You’s expression softened when he saw Zhang Yu. He massaged his temple with his long fingers. “I can’t believe I’ve actually wasted a day.”

“You should rest well if you’re sick,” Zhang Yu said benevolently.

“I hope nothing happened in the imperial court,” Beitang You said.

“Nothing happened today. Although, Princess Yaoyao had been quite attentive toward you getting sick,” Zhang Yu said with a smile.

“Yaoyao?” Beitang You was reminded that the girl had been sitting next to his bed, cracking sunflower seeds, before he fell asleep. He looked around but did not see her. He frowned and asked, “Where is she?”

“The princess went to cook something for you when she saw you were about to wake up,” Zhang Yu replied.

Beitang You was surprised to hear this and a smile appeared on his lips.

“If there is nothing else, I’ll take my leave, Your Majesty.” Zhang Yu was quite glad to see him so happy.

“Alright.” Beitang You nodded.

Not long after Zhang Yu left, Yaoyao walked in with a freshly cooked bowl of congee with shredded meat.

She felt secretly relieved to see Beitang You less pale while he was sitting on the bed. “You’ve woken up just in time, I’ve made some congee with shredded ginger and meat. Come and have some.” She picked up a bowl as she spoke and filled it up with congee.

It warmed Beitang You and touched his heart to see her busying herself over him.

The girl might claim to find him troublesome, but she was still willing to personally make congee for him.

He walked over and sat down at the table. He looked inside the jade-white bowl that was filled with soft, boiled rice mixed with shredded lean meat, and his eyes began to get a little wet.

Beitang You lowered his eyes to hide his unusual reaction.

“Eat up.” Yaoyao put the spoon in his hand.

Ginger was beneficial for combating a cold and he was sick because he had caught a cold.

He lifted his eyes and looked at her with a smile.

This girl was quite considerate.

“Why aren’t you eating?” Yaoyao noticed him stirring the congee, but not eating. She frowned at this. “This congee had been cooking for an hour and is suitable for those who are sick.”

Beitang You put down his spoon and stared at her with his dark eyes. “Did you cook this for me?”

Yaoyao was taken aback. She did cook the congee, but when he talked about it, it sounded like there was something between them.

“I did cook it, but…”

“Thank you, Yaoyao,” Beitang You said sincerely.

Yaoyao felt a little awkward and said impatiently on purpose, “Stop talking and eat while it’s hot. I have something to attend to, so I’ll be leaving first.” With that, she got up and hurriedly left.

The smile in Beitang You’s eyes got even more obvious after he saw her run off.

Beitang You broke out in sweat all over his body after having his meal. He was sticky all over and felt it felt very uncomfortable. So, he got Chen Jin to bring in some hot water as he prepared to take a bath.

The bedchamber was quiet when Yaoyao came over and she thought Beitang You had gone to sleep, so she decided to walk in to have a look.

When she turned to the folding screen, she was surprised by the sight in front of her.

Beitang You had taken off his inner garment and he was naked from the waist up as he was standing in front of the basin rack.

Her mind went blank as he saw what he was holding in his hand and her face immediately turned red.

“You’re disgusting, Beitang You!”

She shouted out and turned quickly to leave. However, her heart was pounding wildly, almost as if it was about to jump out of her chest.
