”Why don't you follow me to the inn and I'll go into more detail on the way?” There was no mistake to be more careful about the affairs of the ten thousand year old ship royal family.
”I was originally a person in seclusion, but because of the great disaster that happened to my family, my father brought me back to the Western Regions with his mother. Now that my father wants me to return and repay the kindness of saving his life, how could I dare to disobey his father's orders? ”
In the Eastern Palace, Zhu Youtang's situation was definitely not good.
”You say that your family has been doctors for generations, but how do we know that you are not a person of unearned fame?”
”If you don't believe me, you can take me to His Highness and see everything.” Furthermore, I am a person without power or influence. If I were to enter the Imperial City, wouldn't I be just a fish on a chopping block, waiting to be slaughtered? ”
Such honesty was indeed rare, Cai Xiang thought about it and felt that she should clearly understand why His Highness was so ill. In any case, if a powerless commoner dared to deceive him, the Imperial City Jail would not be a decoration.
”Alright, I'll believe you for a while now. I hope you won't disappoint me.”
”Just stay by my side for a while, don't look around or make any exaggerated movements, and don't open your mouth to speak in the end.”
Following behind Luo Chun, they saw him enter a very ordinary inn. Cai Xiang had already believed 50% of what Luo Chun had said. If it was an ordinary wine house, then it would mean that Luo Chun was not rich. The medical skills that were still on the table, showed that Luo Chun was indeed a doctor.
These miniscule details only reflected a person's truest situation. When Cai Xiang had packed everything up in a Western style, Cai Xiang had already believed eighty percent of what she said.
”This is the place where the Guangde Sect needs us to get off. I'm in charge of everything. You just need to follow behind me.” Remember what I said, don't look around and say it. ”
After getting off the carriage, they headed to the west side street. After passing the west side street, they would arrive at the east side of Chongde Palace. All along the way, Cai Xiang had announced to everyone that she was a wandering doctor who had received the Emperor Board.
”Your Highness, look, this servant has brought the doctor here. He's a doctor from the Western Regions.”
”Auntie, let him come in and let me have a look.”
Humans were not plants and animals, although Cai Xiang relied on herself to live. But Zhu Youtang still thanked Cai Xiang for taking care of him these past few years. Although Cai Xiang was a slave, according to the rules, a crown prince should not be so courteous to a servant. However, there was still the feeling of having a dog, not to mention a human.
Seeing that Zhu Youtang was not opposed to it, Cai Xiang's heart was filled with joy. ”Remember, don't provoke His Highness without any rules in front of him.”
Even if the people from the Savage Land were born in the Central Plains, Cai Xiang's every word and action still carried a sense of despise and vigilance towards Luo Chun. Luo Chun sensed some malicious intent from Cai Xiang, but did not pay too much attention to it. After all, he had experienced too many of these things, and it was enough for Luo Chun to be numb and not care about them.
”I request that the crown prince allow the citizens to direct the royal family's bloodline.” Luo Chun still had to say what he had heard, after all, his tone was filled with respect towards his benefactor, Luo Chun.
”Alright.” Zhu Youtang nodded, and then, Cai He took a step forward and covered his left hand, which Zhu Youtang had extended his hand, with a handkerchief. The emperor had already ordered the Eastern Palace to send a special order regarding all news. This was one of the reasons why Luo Chun was able to enter the palace so easily.
The crown prince, who had been cultivating for more than ten years, was about to inherit the throne. How could the emperor not be furious when something like this happened to him? After being angrily scolded by the emperor, the gatekeeper was smart enough to know that the emperor's words were not a joke.
It was only until Luo Chun had followed him through the Eastern Palace's main entrance did someone go to the Palace of Heavenly Purity, notify the masters of the imperial harem.
”Your highness, this poison is accumulated over time. Without three to five years, it is impossible for you to have such a serious disease.” With just one word, Luo Chun had revealed his symptoms, which allowed him to display a bit of his true abilities.
”Then, is there any way for you to help His Highness?” Cai Xiang could not wait and immediately asked, wanting to know if there was any way to save the situation.
”I do have a method, but it is very slow, so I have to stay by His Highness' side and wait upon him.”
”You should go down and rest first. Mister has been worn out from the journey, so it's best to set up the boat first.” After all, I cannot rush the condition of the Gu family, so please do not listen to the words of the head of the household. ”
After sending Luo Chun down the stage, Zhu Youtang then looked in the blink of an eye at the two managers who had been serving him the entire time. Auntie, you've passed. ” The aura and cultivation that Zhu Youtang had developed over the years, even when he was resting on the bed, was still emitting a faint pressure.
”If Your Highness doesn't ask clearly, how can we understand whether this matter is beneficial to Your Highness or harmful to you?” Furthermore, Your Highness has already begun to suspect this servant, or do you think this servant is already useless? ”
Cai Xiang had never thought that Zhu Youtang would actually say such things about him. What did that mean? Did the royal family really treat human life as though it was grass?
