The Imperial Physician of Shaofu has done his best.The imperial physician ordered frankly that even if they were killed, the emperor's condition was just a delay, day after day.

Xie Hou cried on the spot after listening, but Xie Qing did not give up.He vaguely remembered that Zhao Yan only had a genius doctor Ji Chengchu by his side, and the real Bian Que was reborn and rejuvenated.When he was poisoned, his life was dying, and one foot was about to step into the underworld, but this miracle doctor Ji rescued him back in a daze.It has been almost a month since Xie Qing returned to Chang'an, yet he has not shown his face.If he was still there, then Zhao Yanzhi's disease might still recover.

Xie Qing had a glimmer of hope in his heart.

"Ji Miracle Physician Shenlong didn't see the end, so he sent several groups of people but failed to find him." Gu Shenxing rubbed his temples wearily, "About half a year ago, he heard the news from nowhere that a man from southern Xinjiang What kind of grass bloomed or bore fruit, and ran away excitedly, and never came back."

Xie Qing is silent.Ji Chengchu has been by Zhao Yanzhi's side for some years, he has a eccentric and mean personality, and has always been a loner.Although he didn't get along well with Ji Chengchu, it didn't mean that Xie Qing didn't understand him.It's been a year or so since he left without hearing from him. It's just too much like what he did.

Xie Qing was impatient and prejudiced against Ji Chengchu at this critical juncture, but at the same time, he felt vaguely that Doctor Ji had never seen Zhao Yanzhi's illness, so he could not be regarded as hopeless.

Xie Qing took care of Zhao Yan for only one month, and she lost a lot of weight.He was already thin, but now he was even more emaciated, and his complexion was not much better than Zhao Yan's.

In fact, Xie Qing probably took up the word "watch" when he said it was looking after.Zhao Yan is usually reluctant to let him bring a glass of water, and all affairs are handled by the servants. Xie Qing has very limited things to do every day.

But he felt bad.When Zhao Yanzhi fell asleep, he would rest next to him; when Zhao Yanzhi was awake, he would talk to him.Zhao Yan only slept at night, but he didn't even dare to close his eyes.Once when he woke up in the middle of the night, he saw Zhao Yan just staring at him in the dark, as if he wanted to touch him, but he was afraid of waking him up.Xie Qing was taken aback at the time, but felt endlessly sad afterwards.From then on, Xie Qing never dared to sleep again at night.

Zhao Yan only woke up five or six times a night.If he woke up and found that Xie Qing was asleep, he wouldn't even dare to move, for fear of waking him up.After Xie Qing found this out, he simply didn't go to sleep, and waited for Zhao Yanzhi to wake up and immediately put him to sleep.If it goes on like this, even hardened people can't stand it.Xie Qing felt that if he didn't have another thought, he would definitely not be able to hold on.

So he began to concentrate on waiting for Ji Chengchu to come back.

"Sir, ahem..." Zhao Yan lay weakly on the couch, but his expression was very clear: "I may not be able to do it this time."

"Your Majesty, don't talk nonsense! You are still young and in good health. You will be fine after recuperating from this illness." Gu Shenxing wanted to make a relieved expression, but he couldn't hide his grief.

This is him, the child he watched growing up.Seeing that a white-haired person might be sent to a black-haired person now, this makes him feel so embarrassing.

"It's okay." Zhao Yanzhi couldn't see how sad he was, "I know what the imperial doctor said, if I really... that's my fate. Don't be sad, sir, just work hard for a few more years and protect this country for me."

Gu Shenxing had gone through a lot of wind and waves, but this time he saw Zhao Yan only confessing his funeral, but he really panicked.Just as Gu Shenxing was about to say something, he was surprised to notice that Zhao Yan only moved his lips silently, saying: "At this time tomorrow, sir will bring my uncle to see me."

"Your Majesty is in good spirits." Xie Qing's gentle voice came from behind Gu Shenxing, and Gu Shenxing immediately understood Zhao Yan's intention of keeping silent.

Zhao Yan was so ill that he had to talk about his funeral.But the only time when this matter was mentioned, Xie Qing, who has always been the most calm and reserved, lost control.

Gu Shenxing has never seen Xie Qing like that in his life.He clamped Gu Shenxing's arm vigorously with his thin hand that still had a few bones left, as if it was the straw to save his life.There was unspeakable grief and despair in his eyes, his lips trembled violently, but he still couldn't say a word.

Gu Shenxing's two most proud disciples in his later years, one may not live forever, he doesn't want the other to go crazy just like that.Therefore, since then, no one dared to mention Zhao Yanzhi's behind-the-scenes in front of Xie Qing.

As soon as Gu Shenxing heard Xie Qing's voice, he immediately understood Zhao Yanzhi's intention.

Apart from Zhao Yanzhi's condition, Xie Qing's troubles recently are his younger sister Xie Xiang.Xie Xiang was eight months pregnant, and Zhao Yan, just to make her less tired, specially asked her to come and serve the medicine once every three days, and just to see it symbolically.That day, Zhao Yan had just fallen asleep, and Xie Qing was about to take a rest, when Xiao Huangmen came to report that Zhonggong wanted to see him and was waiting in the side hall.

Xie Qing was taken aback, because Empress Xie just came here yesterday.She knew that Zhao Yan was only looking forward to the baby in her womb, so she lived in seclusion on weekdays and only raised her baby in Jiaofang Palace, never asking her husband or elder brother to worry about it.

Obviously, she suddenly wanted to see Xie Qing, something must have happened.

Xie Qing hurriedly came to the side hall, Xie Xiang was the only one in the hall, apparently all the palace servants were sent away by her.Xie Qing knew that she must have something important to say, but she still couldn't help frowning.Without him, he was really afraid that there would be no one around Xie Xiang, and if something happened, he would die.

Xie Qing was relieved that Zhonggong was fine.At this time, he has no mind and no time to worry about things that haven't happened.Zhao Yanzhi may wake up at any time, if he wakes up and doesn't see Xie Qing, he will definitely make trouble.

Xie Xiang obviously knew this too, so he didn't even have time to salute Xie Qing, so he said straight to the point: "Brother, I want to give birth to the child now."

Xie Qing didn't react at all for a while, just stared at Xie Xiang blankly, and Xie Xiang looked back without hesitation.It took a long time for Xie Qing to realize what stupid things his sister said just now.Regardless of any etiquette or the mood of the pregnant woman, Xie Qing was furious on the spot.

"What nonsense are you talking about! This child is only eight months old! Do you know how much risk you have to take to give birth to a pre-term child! Even if you are safe and sound, your body will be destroyed if you give birth to him Do you know it!"

Empress Xie had never seen her elder brother get so angry, and was shocked for a while.However, after a while, she still turned back with a strong attitude: "Brother, I'm still young, and taking good care of my body may not necessarily be bad."

"It may not be bad, but it may not be good!" Xie Qing was so angry that he pointed at Xie Xiang's hand, "I can't let you take this risk. Xie Xiang, what are you thinking in your mind! Even if the child is born, how will he be fine!"

Xie Hou lowered his head and did not speak.She thought that her brother, whom she had always doted on, would not be able to resist her request, so she helped her this time, but she didn't expect him to be so angry.Although scolded, Xie Xiang still felt very happy.She is 15 years old, and she can tell who treats her sincerely.At this moment, Xie Qing spoke harshly, but he really took her to heart and was really worried about her.

but--

Brother, I'm sorry, I still have to gamble once.

After Xie went back that day with a dejected expression, Xie Qing thought that this was the end of the matter.It turned out that the child was on a whim, and when he thought of it, he came out.At first, Xie Qing thought about going to see Huaiqing the next day, and comforting his younger sister by the way. After all, it was the first time he got angry with her since she was so old.But later, he didn't pay attention to it after he was too busy. It's not a big deal to influence his brothers and sisters. Getting angry is not a big deal. Xie Qing felt that Xie Xiang must know that he was doing it for her own good, so in the end this matter was left alone.

The next day, Changshan King Zhao Wangzhi and Gu Shenxing came to visit him at the same time as Zhao Yanzhi ordered.

"Granduncle, sir, I still have some things to explain, and I'll feel at ease after I'm done." Zhao Yan's tone was very relaxed, as if what he wanted to explain was not his own funeral. "I gave Huai Fang some soothing soup, he has fallen asleep now. Let's whisper, don't disturb him."

Gu Shenxing's eye circles immediately turned red, he opened his mouth for a long time without saying a word, and finally managed to say in a hoarse voice: "Your Majesty, don't think too much, you're fine."

It's just that the look on his face doesn't look like he's okay.

Zhao Wangzhi sighed, and took him into his arms without hesitation.

Zhao Yan only looked at them, without concealing the envious look in his eyes: "Sir, I'm just talking. I also think I will probably be fine."

"Sir, after Ah Xiang's child is born, he will become the crown prince immediately." Zhao Yan only looked solemn, "The imperial edict has been drawn up, and at the last moment, I will hand it over to Huai Fang."

At this time, Gu Shenxing had returned to the usual stable chief Sima, as if the weakness at that moment had never appeared before.He exchanged a look with Zhao Wangzhi, and then asked: "Your Majesty, the one born in the middle palace two months later must be the prince?"

"I don't know, let's gamble once." Zhao Yan only had a casual expression, but the hand under the brocade quilt was clenched white: "If not, replace that child with the youngest son of King Qi!"

"Just count the days, that child of King Qi will be sent to Chang'an in a few days."

After experiencing a brief shock, the two people present immediately returned to their normal expressions.After a long time, Zhao Wangzhi laughed and said, "Your Majesty, take good care of your illness. If you recover from this illness, Shen Xing will be able to return to Changshan with me at ease."

Everyone is paying attention to Zhao Yanzhi's illness.One of King Qi's concubines had just given birth to his sixth son, which was not worth noting at all.But Zhao Yan, who was seriously ill, not only thought of a plan to steal the beam, but he was about to get the child.

Moreover, he used some means to settle his brother who was not close to him.

He has great talents and general strategy, good ministers to assist him, peace and tranquility, and emperor's methods.As long as he can survive this illness, no one can stop him from achieving supremacy, his name will go down in history, and he will be immortal forever.
