Chapter 2571 Zhao Yuanjing’s Illness

When Zhao Shu saw this scene, his heart sank slightly.

Didn't it mean that the emperor's illness was gradually getting better? Why was there no improvement when he heard the cough?

Zhao Yuanjing's cough lasted for a long time.

Those who listened were heartbroken.

After calming down, he looked up at King Qin and said in a hoarse voice, "Why are you here at this time, little uncle? Sit down."

Liu Dequan moved Zhang Xiaozi here.

Zhao Shu didn't sit down, frowned and asked, "Yuan Jing, what's going on?"

In public, they are kings and ministers, and the rules they should have cannot be broken. But in private he is more casual. Zhao Shu was used to calling him by his name, and Zhao Yuanjing never minded.

"I'm fine."

Zhao Yuanjing took a sip of tea, and the redness on his face slowly faded, and he soon returned to normal.

He slowly let out a breath and said with a smile: "Uncle Emperor, why are you here so early? What's the important matter?"

Zhao Shu glanced at Si Huanian. No words were spoken.

Zhao Yuanjing said to Si Huanian: "Go down."

"Yes, I will retire."

Si Huanian stood up, took the medicine box and left.

The uncle and nephew had something to say, and Liu Dequan wisely led the maids waiting around him out.

Zhao Shu looked at the emperor's face and said, "The queen tried every means to bring Sihuanian back because he said he could cure you. The way I looked at you just now..."

"Did the maids I rewarded yesterday make the little emperor unhappy?" Zhao Yuanjing interrupted him and suddenly mentioned yesterday's reward.

Zhao Shu was startled for a moment and shook his head: "We uncles and nephews don't need to say those lies. Yuan Jing, I understand your intention to reward the palace maid for me. But there is no need. No matter what happens in the future, I am the King of Qin of Zhou State, and I will always be the king of Qin. Yes. That will never change."

Zhao Yuanjing smiled and said: "I know. If the little emperor uncle has such thoughts, I will not be able to ascend the throne one day. I only hope that in the future, the little emperor uncle will treat Yan'er just like he treated me back then, support him and help him ."

The more he said these words, the more ominous he felt in his heart, and he couldn't help but say: "Yuan Jing, what is your illness?"

"not good."

Zhao Yuanjing said two words.

Zhao Shu's heart sank: "How could this happen? Does Si Huanian dare to deceive you?"

"He doesn't have the guts." Zhao Yuanjing said, "He diagnosed me when we were in Yaoguang Mountain. I was injured at that time, which disrupted his diagnosis. It made him mistakenly think that I was just poisoned by Jiuli and was unconscious. The damage I suffered when I was a child is the root cause. For example, if a tree is damaged from the root, no matter what treatment is used, it will be useless. At this time, I am like a rotten tree. It looks lush on the outside, but it is already green on the inside. empty."

Zhao Shu panicked in his heart: "So, Sihua Nian is useless?"

"No." Zhao Yuanjing smiled, "At least, his diagnosis and treatment can make me look like an ordinary person."

"What's the point?!"

"Of course there is." Zhao Yuanjing looked at him, "I have these few years to wait for Yan'er to grow up so that he can be more independent. I can also calm the queen's heart. Didn't the little emperor realize that from Yaoguang Mountain? After coming back, will the queen no longer look so sad? I like that kind of queen, and I don’t like her to feel sad about my illness."

He walked to the window, looked at the blooming summer flowers in the courtyard, and said softly: "Another year has passed. I still have about three years left? Three years... is enough."

From being hopeful to being disappointed again, this kind of psychological gap is something even Zhao Shu can't accept.
