The Disabled Tyrant’s Pet Palm Fish [Transmigration]Chapter 57

Li Yu took a brief nap. When the time limit was up, he immediately turned back into fish. Right now the condition of his cold has lessened a lot. His head was also much clearer than before.

As soon as he returned to the fish tank, Li Yu discovered that his fish pillow had fallen to the side of the silver stone bed. b5DhYE

How did this fall here?

Perhaps he changed urgently and casually left the pillow behind. Such a careless mistake, Jing-wang shouldn’t have discovered that this was a fake fish, right?

Story translated by Chrysanthemum Garden.

Even if he discovered it, it’s not too bad. Before he also had a fish pillow. Jing-wang didn’t even become suspicious at all and even used it to mess with the 2nd Prince.

The real fish felt like this wasn’t a big issue and placed the fish pillow into his interdimensional space. Then, he laid on the silver stone bed listlessly and counted how long it’d be until he could use the transformation skill again. Perhaps getting sick made fish feel more delicate. Li Yu couldn’t help but think that sleeping in a bed was much more comfortable than sleeping on a stone bed. Plus, when he’s a human, Jing-wang was there to take care of him. When he was a fish…… Iu3mVM

Huh? Didn’t Jing-wang say he wanted to bring fish to find Liao Kong?!

Li Yu hopped off the silver stone bed in a flash. Something was not right. Jing-wang discovered that fish was sick and wanted fish to see a doctor. But then Li Yu changed into Li-gongzi and fainted onto the floor inside the room. Therefore Jing-wang brought Li-gongzi to see the imperial physician. Then what about fish?

Uhh… also. Fish got sick because Li-gongzi escaped by water. Jing-wang went in the water in search of Li-gongzi, but ended up finding an unconscious fish. After that, he brought fish back, but what about Li-gongzi?

…… Then later, Li-gongzi appeared completely covered in water inside Jing-wang’s room.

Li Yu thought back and forth. The more he thought about it, the stranger it sounded. Would this have been too coincidental and caused Jing-wang to become aware that Li-gongzi was actually fish?

Li Yu who suddenly discovered that he was full of holes and contradictions: !!!

He needed to think up a counter plan asap! If Jing-wang discovered that Li-gongzi, the person that he liked, was actually a fish, then–

A tiny voice in Li Yu’s heart said: so what? Jing-wang definitely wouldn’t be able to accept it, so he didn’t need to feel so conflicted. m0xJGA

Li Yu: “……”

Li Yu very seriously told himself: If Jing-wang really discovered his secret, then he wouldn’t be able to continue being a pet fish. He also couldn’t do any more of the cute pet system’s missions. Unable to truly turn back into a human, he was only a food ingredient carp who had no support at all– even if he was pretty much no different than a real koi right now, without anyone to raise him, he probably won’t be able to survive for long?

Therefore, he can’t let Jing-wang discover his secret. He also couldn’t carelessly poke holes all over his basket just because he didn’t know how to face Jing-wang’s feelings.

He’s already caused big trouble after all. Li Yu miserably waved his tail. How to deal with this aftermath became his big headache inducing problem right now. 8j6hTU

Li Yu was just thinking when a knocking sound came from outside. After not hearing anyone replying inside, Jing-wang pushed open the door and came in.

He had made an agreement with Li-gongzi. Li-gongzi might be leaving soon. Jing-wang needed to wait until Li-gongzi left before he could come back.

Li Yu immediately perceptively swam to the wall of the crystal tank.

His top priority right now was to not let Jing-wang discover that fish and Li-gongzi had something in common. 8evsuC

For example, Li-gongzi was sick; then fish can no longer be sick. Only by being lively and vigorous like a tiger would Jing-wang not connect fish and the sickly Li-gongzi together.

But just a few days ago, fish was throwing a tantrum and refusing to let Jing-wang pet him.

Li Yu: “…….”

What the heck did he do when he wasn’t thinking clearly? In front of Jing-wang, Li-gongzi was Li-gongzi. Fish was fish. Can’t mix them together! If he got it mixed up as well, how can he guarantee that Jing-wang wouldn’t be able to figure it out! fvQwtA

Li Yu quickly wagged his tail towards Jing-wang and gathered his energy to start swimming in a mysterious pattern.

Sure enough, Jing-wang cared about his pet fish the most. Every time he entered the room, he’d head for the crystal fish tank first. Discovering that fish wasn’t so lifeless, Jing-wang’s face color became better as well. However, despite watching the fish swimming around excitedly, Jing-wang still didn’t move.

Just as fish was feeling nervous, Jing-wang finally furrowed his brows and reached his hand into the fish tank. He gently pulled fish onto the silver stone bed and wrapped him up in the gold silk grass blanket. After wrapping him up, he also patted fish on the head.

Jing-wang thought to himself: The imperial physician said that he’s not allowed to get chilled.

Fish, who was wrapped up into a spring roll again: ??? oLfdXc

Li Yu absentmindedly recalled the grass green blanket with gold lining that Jing-wang wrapped Li-gongzi in and also the way Jing-wang rubbed Li-gongzi on the head. Did Jing-wang……

Did he really notice?

Otherwise, why would he treat fish and the person the same way? Also how did he know that fish and Li-gongzi both liked water grass blankets?

As soon as Li Yu thought of this possibility, he instantly felt like the water inside the fish tank all turned to ice. AfYdxh

At this time, Wang-gonggong quickly walked in from outside, bowed, and asked Jing-wang: “Your highness, the carriage has been prepared. The palace was also notified ahead of time. Are you still planning to enter the palace?”

Jing-wang shook his head.

He wanted to enter the palace because no one could treat Xiao Yu’s illness. He needed to ask the Emperor if he could see Liao Kong. Now that Imperial Physician Xu had already determined that Xiao Yu had a cold, and also Xiao Yu had already drank medicine and recovered some of his energy, looking like he’s much better, there was no need to rush into the palace overnight. He can first let Xiao Yu recuperate quietly for a few days and then see how the situation goes.

Of course, he still needed to send a letter to Liao Kong in the aftermath. Only after asking Liao Kong can he feel completely at ease. ZJr2jB

Jing-wang’s thoughts were somewhat complicated. He was just about to write them on the paper and let Wang Xi know when he suddenly saw from the corner of his eyes, the spring roll wrapped fish rolling off the green blanket on the silver stone bed and plastering its face against the wall of the crystal fish tank, using black grape-like eyes to look pitifully at him.

Understanding, Jing-wang smiled. So Xiao Yu was scared to see Liao Kong, huh? Normally demons were usually afraid of monks.

Jing-wang wrote quickly. After he finished, he used his eyes to gesture to Wang Xi to read it outloud.

Wang Xi, who didn’t really get it: ??? mSKgu8

Under his master’s instructions, Wang-gonggong read loudly: “Xiao Yu is fine. No need to find Liao Kong.”

Li Yu, who successfully “eavesdropped”: oh oh oh. Looks like greeting Jing-wang all lively and vigorously was correct. See, now Jing-wang thinks fish isn’t sick. So calm and collected, it really doesn’t look like he knew Li-gongzi’s true identity.

After all, if he really knew, shouldn’t Jing-wang be calling Liao Kong to come and exterminate the demon!?

Li Yu held down his disguise, which seemed like it was tottering on the verse of collapse. He still felt like he was very safe. As for Jing-wang covering fish and Li-gongzi with similar blankets…… krviI5

Li Yu glanced at the grass blanket that he had now draped over himself like a cloak. Perhaps…. Jing-wang was affected by fish’s tastes and also started to like green blankets?

This kind of possibility seemed somewhat more likely than Jing-wang having discovered that Li-gongzi was fish.

After all, who’d think that people can change into fish?

Li Yu didn’t worry anymore. Jing-wang didn’t suspect him. Li Yu happily rested and recuperated. The next day, he calculated the time well and transformed. Jing-wang already ordered people to prepare the medicine and was waiting specifically for him. ydaQlD

Li Yu, who thought asking Jing-wang to spend time with him while he was ill meant giving him good food to eat and covering him up with the blanket: “……”

Looks like being sick really made fish turn stupid. He actually forgot that after transforming, he still needed to drink medication!!

The medication that Imperial Physician Xu prescribed was really too bitter. Li Yu didn’t even want to think about it. No wonder he had forgotten completely about it. However, when he was not being bullheaded, he was actually pretty reasonable. Although the medicine was hard to drink, he knew this was good for treating his illness. Now that his fever has gone down, his body also doesn’t feel so terrible. It meant that imperial physician Xu’s prescription was useful. When Jing-wang carried over the medicinal bowl, Li Yu accepted it straightforwardly and drank it all in one gulp.

Jing-wang was still holding a silver spoon and planning to feed Xiao Yu the medication scoop by scoop just like yesterday. Seeing Xiao Yu picking up the bowl and drinking everything in one go, Jing-wang: “……” H35Wqn

Li Yu’s face scrunched up into a grimace from the bitterness of the medicine. Putting down the bowl, he discovered that Jing-wang was still silently standing there. Li Yu asked completely unaware: “Is there something else, your highness?”

Jing-wang put away the silver spoon and slowly shook his head.

Li Yu examined Jing-wang up and down and dazely recalled that this posture was most likely Jing-wang getting ready to feed Li Yu medicine. But he had already finished drinking the medicine. Li Yu’s thoughts were very simple. The medicine was so bitter, wouldn’t it be better to just be decisive about it. Dragging it along would only make the experience even more painful!

But in the end, he accidentally ruined Jing-wang’s plan. He didn’t do it on purpose! 3ZWKEC

Li Yu hastily remedied the situation by saying: “I… although I drank all of the medicine, the medicine is still bitter……”

Jing-wang nodded. If it’s bitter, then you should eat something sweet.

Yesterday he fed Li Yu many pieces of peach blossom cookies. Today, it was still the same amount.

Head lowered, Jing-wang broke the peach blossom cookies into pieces for Li Yu. This time, Li Yu learned to be smarter. He didn’t mention at all that he could eat the cookies himself. 6UJ42Y

The only thing was that Jing-wang kept standing with his back bent. Every time Li Yu, who was lying in bed said something, Jing-wang would lower his head and look over gently at Li Yu.

If this kept going, he definitely wouldn’t be able to take it.

Li Yu said thoughtfully: “Your highness, why don’t you just sit.”

What Li Yu meant was, Jing-wang should find a chair to sit in. There were several sandalwood chairs inside the room right now, of all types. Unexpectedly, Jing-wang nodded, lifted the hem of his robes and sat down right at the edge of the bed. W6NIYc

Li Yu: “……”

Li Yu still remembered when Jing-wang kissed him forcefully. This sudden close distance made him somewhat uneasy. But would telling Jing-wang to get up again be making a fuss over nothing?

Li Yu didn’t want to keep staying angry at Jing-wang. Therefore, he can only scoot a bit inside himself to increase his distance from Jing-wang.

Fortunately, Jing-wang didn’t seem to notice. Or perhaps he already noticed but didn’t react at all. dwNgBS

Li Yu swiftly finished nibbling on the peach blossom cookies and wiped his mouth. Jing-wang carried over a white lotus bowl which was covered tightly by a saucer on top.

“What’s this?” The curious fish baby asked.

Looking a bit pleased with himself, Jing-wang lifted the cover. Li Yu discovered that it was actually a small bowl of cucumber salad. Delighted, Li Yu paused and then asked: “Did Aunti Xu make this?”

He guessed it immediately. There was no cucumber salad in ancient times. He only made it once in front of Aunty Xu, therefore, this must be made by Aunty Xu. All of the portions that he made entered Jing-wang’s stomach. The taste didn’t seem bad. Who knows how Aunty Xu’s skills were? dg6TwE

Jing-wang leaned a little closer and gave him a pair of chopsticks.

Li Yu picked up the chopsticks and had one at first for a taste. Then, he ate faster and faster. As he ate, he gave a thumbs up. After eating too much sweet food, it’s time for something salty. The cucumber salad that Aunty Xu made was a pleasant surprise. It didn’t even taste bad compared to the ones he ate in modern times.

Jing-wang smiled. The distance that Xiao Yu did his best to create was seamlessly closed once again just like this.

Li Yu finished drinking his medicine and then filled his stomach with cookies and cucumber. Eating his fill, he became somewhat drowsy. C3Ki6T

Jing-wang moved the jade pillow to Li Yu’s side and indicated for him to sleep some more.

Li Yu wanted to sleep but was also afraid to because he might oversleep and turn back into a fish.

He remembered thinking, who knows how far Jing-wang would go for him……

Li Yu said hesitatingly: “If I only wanted to sleep for an hour…… will you wake me up, your highness?” DXvH P

Waking someone up was a task for servants. Would Jing-wang do it for him? Li Yu felt a bit expectant.

However, Jing-wang only looked at Li Yu and nodded naturally, like it was right and proper. This kind of task that he was overqualified for was even easier than ordering Aunty Xu to make a cucumber salad.

Seeing Jing-wang replying without hesitation, Li Yu felt his heart pound again.

Wang Xi brought over important information and wanted to tell Jing-wang. However, Jing-wang specifically told him that while he’s taking care of Li-gongzi, he didn’t want anyone to disturb. Leaning against the door and peeking through the cracks, Wang-gonggong waited for quite awhile for Li-gongzi to fall asleep before finally calling Jing-wang softly…… nRTck1

Jing-wang walked out and listened to Wang Xi’s news. He gave Wang Xi a dark and cold look with his eyes.

Wang Xi understood and said: “That person has been brought to QingXi courtyard, and is waiting for your judgement.”

Jing-wang raised his hand and flicked off the dust that accidentally landed on his clothes. Then he pulled something out of his sleeve and gave it to Wang Xi.

Wang Xi accepted it and took a look, verifying that this was a kind of drug. cU26WN

Wang Xi felt a chill in his heart. His highness was too vicious, however…… This was something that the other brought upon himself.

Inside the room, someone started sleep-talking. Wang Xi heard Li-gongzi’s voice. Originally, Jing-wang was enveloped by a cruel aura, but it immediately dissipated cleanly as he hastily turned around to check Li-gongzi.

Now that Wang Xi received his order, he immediately sent servants to make the arrangements according to Jing-wang’s wishes.

QingXi Courtyard. vOLJr3

When Chu YanYu was dragged back to his residence, he received a beating again. Perhaps because of his previous experience, this time, he didn’t faint. However, he practically wished that he could faint. Thinking about how he went through all the difficulty of wandering into the inner courtyard to drug Jing-wang, but unexpectedly getting caught right on the spot……

It was already bad enough that his plan had failed. In order to seduce Jing-wang, and in order to completely numb himself, he preemptively fed himself the aphrodisiac as well– he really did feel something strange and thought that he was burning with desire. He had cried and begged those people carrying out the punishment to bring him in front of Jing-wang, desperately hoping that Jing-wang would feel pity for this kind of him.

Taking advantage of the effect of the drug, he did plenty of shameless things without hesitation. However, later on at the very end, Wang Xi told him coldly, that he didn’t ingest an aphrodisiac at all. That the so-called aphrodisiac was changed into ground bean powder. It was then that Chu YanYu realized that his strange feeling was only a misconception caused by having a guilty conscience. Everyone knew about this, but left him in the dark. Everyone saw his depraved filthy appearance as he lustfully and willingly begged for love.

Chu YanYu quietly laid on the ground, wishing he were dead. peUgaT

When Wang Xi brought people over to find him, Chu YanYu didn’t have a chance to respond when a guard grabbed him by the neck and force fed him a cup of tea.

Chu YanYu didn’t need to think too deeply to know that this wasn’t anything good. He scratched at his throat and coughed loudly. However, even though he had coughed out tears, he still couldn’t spit out the tea that he drank.

Story translated by Chrysanthemum Garden.

“What did you give me to drink?” Chu YanYu stared resentfully at Wang Xi with a face full of tears.

Wang Xi put on a false smile: “The thing that Chu-gongzi wanted to drink, but couldn’t. Did you already forget it so quickly?” ytk2oN

This– was the real aphrodisiac?!

Jumping in fear, Chu YanYu turned around and wanted to run away, thinking if he could escape to the 6th Prince’s side, perhaps there’d be someone to protect him and save him. However, he was currently in the Jing Estate and had injuries on his body. He couldn’t run far. Wang Xi stepped forwards himself and knocked Chu YanYu over on the floor. Then he tied Chu YanYu’s hands and feet up.

Chu YanYu very quickly felt the true effects of the aphrodisiac. Trembling all over and eyes bloodshot, he felt all of his intelligence and reason was swallowed whole. Who was he? Who was the 6th prince? None of it mattered anymore. He only wanted to find relief or end it directly with one stab.

He thought Wang Xi made him like this so people could tarnish him, but no one came. After tying him up and blocking his mouth, Wang Xi closed the door to the room tightly. tvuJz8

“Since Chu-gongzi wanted to have others burn with desire, you should have a taste of how it feels as well. However, no one will come to help you relieve the effect of this aphrodisiac. Chu-gongzi, please enjoy it by yourself. This is his highness’s punishment for you.” With a smile of disdain, Wang Xi left him with these last words.

Chu YanYu can’t move, nor can he yell. He can only let out muffled cries of agony.

Wang Xi’s figure gradually moved away. What awaited Chu YanYu was a burning fire that made him feel suffocated and also the endless black night.
