My mother's love song

Nuozi shook his head and said, "No need. This is the "golden elixir" for curing His Highness Dingzi's illness, right? Let me taste what you want to do."

Rhodes came close to Nuozi and said, "It's okay to have a little taste."

Sei Shonagon frowned: "What are you doing... I always feel that today's Hikari-no-Kin is a bit disgusting."

The young man urged, "Don't say that. Just treat it as Fujiwara Sadako testing poison and try a little."

The girl asked back: "Is it really okay?"

"Well, it's okay."

"Okay, try some."

Sei Shonagon placed her cherry-sized mouth on the rim of the cup and took a small sip.

"How about it?"

"…………I haven't drunk it yet. Didn't you ask me to taste it? Of course I have to put it in my mouth and savor it carefully."

Sei Shonagon turned around with a strange expression, opened her mouth and showed Rhodes what was inside her mouth.

"!!!"

The entire oral cavity was clearly visible beyond Sei Shonagon's neat and white teeth, and on the girl's cute pink tongue, there was a pool of white condensed milk.

Rhodes swallowed: This is not good... It feels very astringent.

"…………The Kin of Light."

Sei Shonagon stared at the young man with her big watery eyes, half-opened her mouth, and called his name indistinctly.

Rhodes was puzzled: "What's wrong?"

Wait, is this...

Rhodes suddenly realized something as if he had received an electric shock.

Feeling the sense of conquest rising in his heart, the young man said in a deep voice.

"Nozi, you can swallow it now."

"……Um"

Sei Shonagon nodded obediently.

The girl closed her mouth and made a somewhat obscene swallowing sound accompanied by a trembling throat.

"How is it?" Rhodes asked.

Sei Shonagon blushed as she said, "It's just as I imagined, it tastes terrible but not unpleasant.

I am still dizzy after all... Ugh, if I must say... I guess I like it."

"You are worthy of being my beloved wife. I will let you eat enough in the future."

Rhodes showed a satisfied expression.

Then, he realized the seriousness of the matter: So...what should I do in the future?

Nuozi is his fiancée. Although she doesn't know this yet, one day she will find out that the "golden pill" she ate today is actually...

Forget it! Never mind, just take it one step at a time!

Rhodes gave up hope.

After the elixir tasting session, it was time to feed the medicine to Her Majesty the Queen.

"Noko, come and give Fujiwara Sadako the medicine."

"Eh? Me!?"

"Is there a problem?"

"No, it would be better to let the Light Parent come..."

When it came to the critical moment, Sei Shonagon seemed a little timid.

But this is not surprising. If something happened to Queen Teiko due to her negligence, Noko would definitely be extremely sad.

"Alright, help me lift Fujiwara Sadako up."

Just like that, Sei Shonagon held the sleeping queen in his arms, with the back of his head on her shoulder, while Rhodes brought the teacup to the Sleeping Beauty's lips.

While the person was unconscious, the "golden elixir" was poured into Fujiwara Sadako's mouth.

The cherry-colored lips were stained with white.

"Woo..."

The queen first frowned slightly, showing a look of resistance, but soon she began to swallow in big gulps as if she was very eager...

"Oh, oh, oh... Your Highness is drinking happily, like a baby being fed. Hikari no Otoko's 'Golden Pill' is indeed delicious."

Sei Shonagon smiled a motherly smile.

"Ah, a hair got mixed in there."

"..."

Rhodes remained silent throughout the whole process.

It was already exciting to order my beloved girl to swallow the "Golden Pill", but feeding the "Golden Pill" to someone else's wife, especially Her Majesty the Queen, was also a different kind of fun...

Finished feeding.

The effect is immediate.

Fujiwara Sadako's originally painful expression became calm and her breathing also calmed down.

Her bloodless cheeks became rosy and the queen now fell asleep in a peaceful state.

"It's a success! It's a success, Light's Friend!"

Nuozi hugged Queen Dingzi and shed tears of excitement.

Rhodes was also relieved.

He transferred part of his life force to Fujiwara Sadako.

Although this sounds very scary, Rhodes' own vitality is almost infinite for a mortal, so there is no need to take it to heart.

If Fujiwara Sadako wants to survive in the future, she must regularly consume Rod's body fluids...

Afterwards, Sei Shonagon summoned the imperial physician.

The imperial physician looked at Empress Dingzi, who was radiant with joy and sleeping peacefully, with an expression of disbelief.

"Her Majesty the Queen has recovered from her illness."

After a careful examination, the leading doctor trembled as he gave his conclusion.

"You are worthy of being recommended by Lord Qingming. My medical skills are far inferior to yours..."

"He was able to bring Her Majesty the Queen back to life... The person from the Tang Dynasty is truly extraordinary."

Rhodes accepted the flattery from a group of old men for a quarter of an hour.

This is how things came to a temporary end.

By the way, after that I have to strip off Sei Shonagon’s twelve pieces of clothing and write the word “idiot” all over her body with ink.

"Thank you, Light-Kind."

Sei Shonagon held the boy's hand tightly, her face full of admiration and love for the girl.

"Nothing, I'm also paid to do the job."

"Hey? Did you collect the money?"

"I received a little bit of 100 million."

Rhodes put the cup that had just contained the "golden elixir" into his arms and reminded Nuozi, "By the way, it's best not to tell others what happened here just now. If you are asked, use business secrets to get away with it."

"Well, I will absolutely keep my mouth shut."

Sei Shonagon said this with a serious expression, but Rhodes felt that she was quite unreliable.

Never mind. Even if they find out, it doesn’t matter… They can’t possibly know what the ingredients of the “golden elixir” are.

"Well, it's about time for the eight hundred nuns and I to say goodbye."

Rod said, standing up.

"Are you leaving now? I'll ask the maids to prepare dinner for you..."

"No, I plan to go home and eat."

Rhodes said: "Let them deliver the reward we agreed on beforehand to Xiangzi's home."

"Hey~~~ I finally got to see Hikari Kiss once, so please stay with me."

"Don't act like a baby."

Rhodes stroked her hair and said, "Nuozi, come over and show your face when you have time."

"Yes! I'll go over after His Highness Dingzi is done with his work here!"

Sei Shonagon looked around.

After realizing that everyone was surrounding Fujiwara Sadako and no one was paying attention to this side, she moved closer to Rhodes and gave the boy a kiss on the cheek like a chick pecking at rice.

"Hehe...I like you the most, Light's dear."

There was a faint scent of enchantment on the girl's lips.

……

……

……

After bidding farewell to Sei Shonagon, Rod and Yaobikuni walked out of the Queen's Palace led by the maid.

Before I had walked far, I saw a large group of people coming towards me.

Walking at the front of the crowd were two figures, one tall and one short, standing side by side.

The short man was a teenager, about the same age as Rhodes, with long black hair tied into a headband at the back of his head. He was wearing a brown Tang-style robe that looked very heavy. He was holding a wooden board in his hand and walking with staggering steps.

Next to him was a beautiful woman in her early twenties with fair skin and black hair that almost reached the ground. Although she was wearing a heavy, multi-layered Tang-style dress, she walked lightly and gracefully.

Behind the two of them was a group of nobles and ministers who followed closely as if they were surrounded in front and behind.

The maid who was leading Rhodes and the eight hundred nuns stopped about ten meters away from them. She walked to the side of the road and bowed deeply in the direction of the queue.

"This way."

Rhodes also tactfully pulled the eight hundred nuns and the maids to the side of the road and stood against the wall to make way for the queue.

The huge crowd moved forward slowly, which took a long time, but throughout the whole process, it seemed as if they treated the three of them as pebbles on the roadside, and no one even glanced in their direction.

"...who?"

Yaobikuni looked at the procession that had already gone far away and said curiously, "It seems that they are heading towards Fujiwara no Teiko's bedroom."

"Don't you know him? Isn't he already four hundred years old?" Rhodes said.

"Even if you live another 4,000 years, you won't be able to meet the important people in the palace."

The eight hundred nuns pouted their lips.

Rhode said to her casually, "The ones who just walked over were the Emperor and the Empress."

“…Huh!?”

The eight hundred nuns opened their mouths wide with an expression of disbelief.

"That, that is the current emperor of the Heian period... Emperor Ichijo and Empress Fujiwara no Akiko, right? Lord Omikami, do you know them?"

"How could they possibly know each other? But you can tell just by looking at this scene."

After saying this, Rhodes turned and left.
