Chapter 378

The king opened his eyes and saw not his wife and children surrounding the bed, but a strange black-haired woman.

He was stunned for half a second before asking cautiously, "Who are you?"

Jiang Ruochu disagreed, and there was no respect for the royal family in his attitude: "Oh, you're awake."

She thought that Xiao Heituan liked sweet food, so she stuffed a few more local fruits into her pocket.

The king caught a glimpse of her picking the fruit and was speechless for a moment.

But what made him happy was that when he woke up this morning, he felt refreshed all over.

"Your Majesty, you may hear a lot of shocking news later, so please stay calm."

As soon as Jiang Ruochu finished speaking, without waiting for the king to respond, he went to open the door and invited the people waiting outside to come in.

The reason why she acted so quickly was that the king was not completely recovered, but was just recovering from a last-ditch effort, and this state would not last a day.

But it doesn’t matter, one day is enough for the king to leave his last words.

Before the king could react, the door was opened and sunlight poured in.

The frail king subconsciously covered his eyes to block out the glaring sunlight. After about a few seconds, he gradually adapted and moved his hands away.

He looked at Jiang Ruochu's back standing in the light, and felt a sense of oppression as if he was being led by the nose.

At this time, the Queen Mother, the Queen and Sunas came in one after another.

Jiang Ruochu stood by and said without hesitation: "Take it easy, don't make people angry to death."

Queen Ariande glared at Jiang Ruochu fiercely.

The next second, she threw herself on the king's bed, crying and asking him to make the decision for her.

The Queen Mother walked forward angrily, grabbed Arianda's hair, and pulled her back hard. After dragging her to the ground, she shouted, "You vicious woman! Stay away from my son!"

The system chatted with Jiang Ruochu leisurely. [It turns out that the royal family pulling hair is no different from ordinary people pulling hair. They all cry, make a fuss, and scream.]

Afterwards, the Queen Mother revealed the story of Ariande's betrayal of the King.

Arianda was not to be outdone. She knelt forward and pushed the Queen Mother away with her shoulder: "Your Majesty, don't believe her. She wants to slander me so that she can support your brother to ascend the throne! My love for you is clear to the heavens and the earth, and the sun and the moon can bear witness to it!"

Even now, Ariande still dared to be so self-righteous because her family helped her think of a final countermeasure, which was that if the king really woke up, they must find an opportunity to get rid of the little prince, and even be so cruel as to leave no trace of his body so that there would be no evidence.

This is the only way to save your life and preserve the family's wealth and prosperity.

Although Ariande was heartbroken, she acquiesced to her family's advice.

At this moment, the only thing she could do was not to show weakness and guilt in front of the king, but to pretend to be innocent and framed.

After all, the king had just woken up and his mind was probably not clear yet.

As long as she could arouse suspicion between the king and the queen dowager, she would have room to maneuver.

Although Jiang Ruochu wanted to stay and eat more melons, the royal scandal could not be made public, and the Queen Mother's people soon came to ask Jiang Ruochu to leave.

Jiang Ruochu shrugged and said that she would abide by the rules, but she still had a few words to say to Sunas.

Jiang Ruochu was a distinguished guest of Sharodiro and also held an important position in the Chinese medical team. These people did not dare to embarrass Jiang Ruochu and gave way.

Jiang Ruochu pulled Sunas over and whispered, "The king can probably only hold on until around nine or ten tonight."

Sunas was startled and looked at Jiang Ruchu in surprise.

"Before that, you have to let him finalize the successor."

"If it really cannot be finalized, you must obtain the real power that can compete with the Queen Mother." Jiang Ruochu has excluded Ariande as a competitor. The only one who will become an obstacle to Sunas in the future is the Queen Mother.

"He would not want to see someone who is not his son take the throne, nor would he want to see his brother take the throne."

"You are his best choice."

Sunas smiled bitterly: "I'm afraid that even at this point, he won't think I'm his best choice. My father... has an illegitimate child outside, and I only found out about it these past few days."

Jiang Ruochu said "Oh" without any surprise.

King Sharodiro was a womanizer, so it was surprising that he didn't have any children outside.

It's just that he probably still wanted to maintain the legitimate status of his youngest son, so he never acknowledged the outside child.

Jiang Ruochu asked: "How old is his illegitimate child?"

"Eight years old."

"You just need to tell the king that the child is young and can be easily controlled by the Queen Mother. It is hard to say whether the country will end up in the hands of the Queen Mother and the middle-aged prince, or in the hands of his son."

Jiang Ruochu analyzed calmly.

When it comes to palace fighting, who can have as much experience as the Chinese, who have a history and civilization record of over 5,000 years?

"Besides, you invited me here. This is your biggest bargaining chip."

In the palace full of intrigue and deception, when her life was hanging by a thread, only the eldest daughter sincerely invited a doctor for herself, and this doctor also "cured" her. It goes without saying who the king's heart will favor.

"I understand. Thanks for the reminder." Sunas nodded slightly towards Jiang Ruochu.

After Jiang Ruochu left the villa, he did not leave with the main group. Instead, he looked around and found Ye Sha standing at the corner of the garden.

She coughed lightly and said to the leader, "I have something personal to do."

The team leader didn't ask too many questions, because he knew that Jiang Ruchu was a sensible person.

Even if she is not sensible, it is because she has the confidence to do so.

"Okay, we'll wait for you in the house."

Jiang Ruochu nodded, watched his people leave, and immediately walked towards Yesha: "How is it?"

Yesha said expressionlessly, "Good location."

The little black ball that had been cooped up in Yesha's body for a few days could finally come out to get some fresh air. It crawled out of Yesha's pocket, jumped onto his shoulder with a squeaking sound, and let out a long breath of pink air.

Jiang Ruochu couldn't imagine that such a dark monster could be so pink.

Ye Sha probably felt that such a pink color was a bit insulting to the dignity of the demons, so he covered the little black ball's mouth with his hand.

The little black ball stared with his big eyes and whimpered in grievance.

Jiang Ruochu grabbed Yesha's wrist and said, "Don't be too harsh on him."

With Jiang Ruochu's support, the little black group nodded frantically.

Ye Sha snorted lightly, as if dissatisfied, but still let go of his hand.

Then, one person, two demons and one system, four people, the demons and the things squatted in the corner of the garden to listen to the royal gossip.

Now, after practicing physical training, Jiang Ruochu has sharp ears and eyes. As long as he concentrates, he can hear clearly what is happening in the room.

While listening to gossip, they also took out food from their pockets in various ways. Moreover, Jiang Ruochu also started a live broadcast and simultaneously transmitted it to the group members in the time travel group.

I have achieved it completely. Happiness is shared with others rather than enjoyed alone.
