nShi Qingshan’s younger son was named Shi Manchuan. His pet name was Stony.

nOn the day Stony turned one month old, Long Xiaoyuan and Shi Qingzhou left the palace early for the general’s mansion.

nMadam Shi had a good physique condition.

n

n

nAfter a month of recuperation, she recovered from the damage caused by the childbirth.

nFurthermore, she insisted on breast-feeding him.

nAs a result, Shi Manchuan grew chubby. Long Xiaoyuan and Shi Qingzhou adored him every time they saw him

nThe baby was lovely.

n

n

nLong Xiaoyuan and Shi Qingzhou took Long Huan to see the baby a few times. Long Huan liked the baby very much, and often clamored in the palace to visit the baby.

nHowever, Long Xiaoyuan did not take Long Huan along to the baby’s first month celebration.

nAlthough they wanted to take Long Huan there, Long Huan caught a cold the day before yesterday.

nLong Xiaoyuan did not dare to take him to the party.

n

n

nFirstly, he was afraid that Long Huan would pass the cold to Shi Manchuan, and secondly, Long Huan needed to rest. If he went to the general’s mansion, he couldn’t rest well.

nTherefore, Long Xiaoyuan and Shi Qingzhou did not take Long Huan.

nThe chap watched Long Xiaoyuan leave with pitiful disappointment in his eyes.

nShi Qingshan greeted Long Xiaoyuan and Shi Qingzhou when they arrived.

n“Father, you will be very busy today. You don’t have to look after us. We can take care of ourselves,” Long Xiaoyuan said first.

nShi Qingshan thanked him.

n

n

nAfter sending Shi Qingshan away, Long Xiaoyuan took Shi Qingzhou’s hand and went to see Stony.

nStony might have known that he was turning one month old this day, so he was very excited. When it was time for him to sleep, he stayed awake.

nMadam Shi wasn’t with Stony.

nThe Shadow Guardians and the wet nurse were there.

nThe baby looked around in the cradle.

nLong Xiaoyuan smiled. “This little guy knows that today is his good day. He’s so excited that he doesn’t even sleep.”

nThe baby didn’t understand him naturally.

nBut he was not afraid of Long Xiaoyuan, looking at him when he talked.

n

n

nLong Xiaoyuan couldn’t help poking the baby’s cheek with his finger.

nAt first, Long Xiaoyuan poked carefully.

nStony stared at him.

nHowever, when Long Xiaoyuan poked him a little harder accidentally, Stony was irritated.

nSuddenly, he cried out loud.

nShi Qingzhou and Long Xiaoyuan were startled.

nLong Xiaoyuan was flustered.

nShi Qingzhou frowned and whispered, “Don’t cry. You are a man. Stop crying.”

nLong Xiaoyuan laughed.

n“Qingzhou, he’s only one month old, and you tell him this?”

n“Education should start early.”

nLong Xiaoyuan smiled at Shi Qingzhou’s serious expression.

n“Alright. But Qingzhou, even if education should start early, don’t you think it’s too early?”

n

n

nShi Qingzhou said lightly, “As son of the Shi family, he should be educated from now. I didn’t cry like that when I was small.”

n“Nonsense. When you were young, you cried more than he does,” Madam Shi said as she entered the room.

nShe took the child from the wet nurse skillfully.

nThe child smelled the familiar scent of milk on her and instantly stopped crying.

nMadam Shi said to her elder son as she hugged the baby, “Qingzhou, you often cried in the first few months. For this reason, your father and I prayed to the gods!”

nShi Qingzhou was instantly embarrassed.

n“Mother, don’t spout nonsense.”

n“It’s true. You don’t remember that.” Madam Shi snapped.

nLong Xiaoyuan giggled happily.

n“Qingzhou, look, you were lying. Thankfully, Mother is here.”

nShi Qingzhou glared at Long Xiaoyuan.

nLong Xiaoyuan shrugged innocently. “I didn’t say anything. Mother said it.”

nShi Qingzhou turned to leave.

n“Wait for me.” Long Xiaoyuan quickly chased after him.

nWhen Madam Shi saw Long Xiaoyuan chasing after Shi Qingzhou, she smiled.

n“Stony, that’s your elder brother. The other one is also your brother. He… is a good emperor.”

n“I have never seen such a man.”

n“He dismissed all the concubines for one man. He has only your elder brother.”

n“He is a good emperor, good to the people.”

n“He is just like your father. Stony, you should grow up to be like your two elder brothers.”

nThe baby naturally couldn’t understand what his mother was saying.

nHowever, the Shadow Guardians’ eyes glinted. That night Long Xiaoyuan heard these comments from the Shadow Guardians.

nInstantly, Long Xiaoyuan was delighted.

nGood Emperor. How nice!

nOf course, that was something that would happen at night. He didn’t know about this yet, as he was chasing Qingzhou.

nLong Xiaoyuan caught up to Shi Qingzhou at the courtyard gate.

n“Qingzhou, I stop laughing at you, Okay? Don’t be angry.”

nShi Qingzhou glared at him.

nLong Xiaoyuan hurriedly raised his hands to surrender.

n“I was wrong, I was wrong. Qingzhou, please forgive me.”

nShi Qingzhou laughed in amusement.

nLong Xiaoyuan looked at Shi Qingzhou and laughed as well.

n“Qingzhou, you laugh. That means you are not angry? That’s great.”

nShi Qingzhou knocked on his back. “Stop joking. Let’s go out.”

n“Why?”

n“Go see Liu Suifeng.”

n“Why?”

n“I want to ask him to make something for my brother to wear to ward off poison and mosquitoes,” Shi Qingzhou said.

nLong Xiaoyuan’s eyes lit up. “That’s a good idea. If he knows how, we can ask him to make more. I think many people need this.”

n“Okay.” Shi Qingzhou nodded and said, “Is the clinic open today?”

nLong Xiaoyuan shook his head. “I don’t know. He only works a few days in a month, and the time is not fixed. Who knows?

nI think the people in the Imperial City are blind. People go to the clinic every day, and some even line up very early, including the rich and the commoners. It’s ridiculous. ”

nShi Qingzhou looked at Long Xiaoyuan, who was about to explode, and smiled. “You are jealous.”

nLong Xiaoyuan was more frustrated when he heard this.

n“Why am I jealous of him? Nonsense!”

nShi Qingzhou shrugged. “Alright, it’s nonsense. Will you go?”

n“Of course. Why don’t I go?”

nLong Xiaoyuan said firmly.

nShi Qingzhou smiled and nodded. “Alright, since you’re going, let’s go together.”

nThe two of them went to see Liu Suifeng.

nThe clinic happened to be open.

nWhen Long Xiaoyuan arrived, there was a sea of people.

nIt was said that the day’s three lucky men had just been selected. Many rich men were waiting outside.

nIn the beginning, the rich people came to clinic because of its connection with the royal family.

nNow, they came for Liu Suifeng.

nAll the rich people who had been treated by Liu Suifeng were cured.

nIt was obvious that he was a divine doctor.

nEven though the divine doctor was extremely eccentric.

nOne of the three commoners that Liu Suifeng chose today had a curious illness, and he spent more time on it.

nTwo of the three patients came out when Long Xiaoyuan and Shi Qingzhou arrived.

nLong Xiaoyuan and Shi Qingzhou exchanged a glance and went straight to the back of the clinic. They went to second floor with lightness techniques and then walked downstairs.

nThe Shadow Guardians here actually knew about it, so they let them go.

nOtherwise, no one could go to the second floor this way.

nOuyang Chuan was not there this day.

nLiu Suifeng was telling the third patient what to pay attention to. He gave him detailed instructions.

nIn addition, Long Si packed a lot of medicinal herbs.

nLiu Suifeng raised an eyebrow when he saw the two of them coming down from the second floor.

nAfter sending the third patient away, Liu Suifeng looked at Long Xiaoyuan and Shi Qingzhou.

n“Why are you here? Isn’t today your brother’s first month party? Don’t you go to the general’s mansion?”

n“We’ve been there.” Long Xiaoyuan smiled. “I like to invite you over for a drink.”

nLiu Suifeng smiled. “Okay, I’ll go later.”

n“Since you’re going to the party, you can’t go without bringing a gift, can you?” Long Xiaoyuan immediately smiled.

nThe smile on Liu Suifeng’s face froze.

nHe looked at Long Xiaoyuan with an impassive face. “This is your real purpose, right? Tell me. What do you want me to do?”

nLong Xiaoyuan smiled and revealed his white teeth. “We like to know if you can make something for the baby to wear to ward off poison and mosquitoes.”

nLiu Suifeng said, “I have to think about it. The baby is too fragile after all. There are many things that are not good for his health.”

n“So, we have to ask you for the favor. You don’t need to give the cash gift. After you make it, go to the party,” Long Xiaoyuan said very naturally.

nLiu Suifeng glared at Long Xiaoyuan angrily.

n“Do you mean that I can’t go if I don’t fix this?”

nLong Xiaoyuan said innocently, “I’m afraid that you’ll be embarrassed. I’m only thinking of you. You are welcome, really.”

n“You…”

nShi Qingzhou cleared his throat and interrupted Long Xiaoyuan, lest he raged Liu Suifeng.

n“Liu Suifeng, thank you,” Shi Qingzhou said.

nLiu Suifeng said hastily, “It’s okay. It’ll take a while.”

n“But outside…” Shi Qingzhou pointed at the outside.

n“I’ll close the clinic,” Shi Qingzhou said decisively.

nLong Xiaoyuan was sorry for the crowd waiting outside.

nThe crowd was indignant when the guards came out to inform them that Liu Suifeng was closing the clinic for the day. However, they could do nothing about it.

nThe doctor of this clinic went his own way, and he was extremely arrogant.

nIndignant? Fine, don’t come to the clinic. Liu Suifeng didn’t care about it.

nHe just stopped seeing patients as he pleased.

nLong Xiaoyuan and Shi Qingzhou waited in the room.
