Chapter 127 - Fang Shuoyang’s True Identity (II)



Chapter 127: Fang Shuoyang’s True Identity (II)

Translator: Storm in a Teacup

So, of course, the next day, both Long and Shi got up late.

More than that, Shi felt very powerless in the morning, which was very rare.

It seemed that what they did last night was too fierce for Shi. When Long woke up and saw that Shi was uncomfortable, he felt a little guilty.

“Qingzhou, are you okay?”

Long’s smile was very flattering. Shi stared at Long, but didn’t say anything to complain about it. Anyway, he had agreed to do that the previous night.

Even if Shi stared at him, Long was still very happy, because that was his most beloved empress!

Long got closer and began to massage Shi’s waist and legs.

As Shi’s robe was loosened, Long saw that there were many red spots on his white and delicate skin. Long felt very sorry and controlled his desire for Shi. Finally, he took a coat and wrapped Shi up.

Shi didn’t say anything.

Long looked outside. “It’s too late for the morning meeting. I won’t go there… Qingzhou, let’s get up and have breakfast, shall we?”

“Mhmm.” Shi nodded and got up. Long helped Shi get dressed.

This seemed inconceivable in the past. In other people’s eyes, it was impossible for the emperor to do that. However, it had become a natural thing between this sweet couple.

Long stopped behaving like a domineering ruler in front of Shi… As a matter of fact, Long had changed after that special dream.

Shi doubted Long at first, but now, he had gradually got used to it…

Outsiders wouldn’t understand what they had experienced…

After getting dressed, they got out of bed.

For breakfast, Shi could only have some porridge. Long didn’t ask him to eat bread or other food, because he was afraid that Shi would feel uncomfortable when he went to the toilet. It was good to eat some light food.

Shi only ate a bowl of porridge.

“Would you like some more, Qingzhou?” Long asked immediately.

Shi shook his head. “No.”

Long felt a little sorry. “Qingzhou…”

When he was about to say something more, the Shadow Guardian reported outside that Zhou Huan had arrived in the imperial city.

Long and Shi looked at each other. The previous day, the imperial doctor had taken some blood from Fang Shuoyang, which was currently stored in a jade bottle.

It just took Zhou Huan less than four days to get there. It seemed that she had been rushing there day and night.

Long and Shi called Zhou there also for the sake of her safety.

They were afraid that since those assassins failed to kill Fang and Xu, they would go to hurt Zhou. They were not sure that if the Tianyin post would be able to protect her.

Most importantly, they needed to figure out the real relationship between her and Fang Shuoyang.

If Fang Shuoyang was not Fang Qiuhua’s son, but a member of the royal family of Eastern Darkness… then, things would be more serious!

“Let’s get out of the palace and have a look,” Long said.

Shi nodded. It was not appropriate to ask Zhou to stay in the imperial palace at this moment, not because they needed to hide it from Fang Shuoyang, but because… compared with the palace, some other place would be safer.

They could decide that after discussing with Fang and Xu.

However, they needed to confirm something before that…

Shi and Long went out of the palace together, protected by many Shadow Guardians as last time.

If they were attacked on the way, it would prove that… what the Eastern Darkness wanted definitely had something to do with Fang’s identity!

However, no one tried to attack them on their way to the place where Zhou was staying.

When Zhou saw them coming, she immediately knelt down to greet them.

“Greetings, Your Majesty, Your Grace. Long live Your Majesty…”

“Madam, don’t be so formal. Please get up.” Long gestured for her to get up.

After Zhou stood up, Long said, “Madam, you’ve had a long journey. You must be exhausted now.”

“Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. I’m fine.”

After some polite greetings, Long got down to business.

“Madam, I sent some people to bring you here, because I was afraid that those killers would hurt you. In addition, I want to ask you something.”

“What’s that?” Zhou asked at once.

Long fixed his eyes on her. “Fang Shuoyang’s true identity.”

Those words stunned Zhou. “Huh?”

She was shocked, so she responded like that.

Long and Shi secretly looked at each other. Given Zhou’s reaction, they knew that Zhou didn’t know anything about it. In addition, Zhou must firmly believe that Fang Shuoyang was her son…

“Madam, you didn’t hear me wrong. This is what I want to know. Madam, are you sure that Fang Shuoyang is your son?”

Zhou said, “Of course. I gave birth to Shuoyang. I…”

Suddenly, Zhou stopped and hesitated.

Long said at once, “Madam, what happened when he was born?”

Zhou’s heart began to thump.

Shi said, “Madam, did you think of something strange?”

Zhou turned pale. “I… I remember that… on the day of Shuoyang’s birth, I… passed out… When I was in a coma, I heard the midwife saying… I gave birth to a girl… But the next day… I saw a boy… Shuoyang… I thought I heard it wrong…”

Zhou was at a loss…

Long and Shi had a quick look at each other.

Long asked, “Madam, are you sure?”

Zhou’s face was very pale.

Long couldn’t bear to see her like that, but he still said, “Madam, I brought something here to test whether Fang Shuoyang and you… are related. It matters a lot. I hope you can cooperate with us.”

Hearing that, Zhou almost collapsed.

Shi comforted her, “Madam, we just want to confirm it. You don’t have to worry too much.”

Then, Long took out two jade bottles from his pocket. One bottle contained Fang Shuoyang’s blood, and in another bottle… there was the secret medicine of the royal family.

Zhou felt uneasy when she saw the two jade bottles, but did she have any other choice at this moment?

She also thought that Fang Shuoyang and Fang Qiuhua looked quite alike… so they must be related, right?
