347. Chapter 343 Executive Vice Emperor

Chapter 343 Executive Vice Emperor

Zhaoyang Palace.

Li Nuo had been inside for a long time, and everyone in the Imperial Hospital was waiting anxiously outside.

Crunch...

At a certain moment, the palace door suddenly opened from the inside, and a figure walked out of the palace.

Doctor Chen walked forward quickly and was about to ask a question. When he looked up, his expression was startled and he said in shock: "Your Highness, you are awake!"

The person who walked out of the palace was not Li Nuo, but the Sixth Princess!

The expressions of everyone in the Imperial Hospital were also filled with shock.

He actually did something that even the Medical Saint couldn't do...

Zhao Zhiyi was still a little weak. She held the door with one hand and pointed inside with the other, saying, "I'm fine. Go, go see him..."

A moment later, by the bed.

Doctor Chen took his fingers away from Li Nuo's wrist, turned around and looked at Zhao Zhiyi, saying: "Your Highness, don't worry. Doctor Li is just seriously overdrawn. There is nothing else wrong with him. The medical Qi in his body will slowly nourish and restore his body. He will wake up after a few days of sleep at most..."

The Sixth Princess miraculously woke up. Although their diagnosis was that she was fine, to be on the safe side, he still planned to let the master take a look in person.

However, he had just walked out of the palace when he learned that his master had been arrested by the Ministry of Justice for throwing fruit peels on the street.

He had no choice but to rush to the Ministry of Justice first.

Although the detention time has not yet come, because it involves the Sixth Princess, the future Empress, the Ministry of Justice does not dare to continue detaining him and can only release the Medical Saint early.

Not long after, in Zhaoyang Palace, the Medical Saint placed two fingers on Zhao Zhiyi's wrist, with deep surprise in his eyes, and murmured: "Strange, how could it be so..."

In just a short while, not only did the poison in her body disappear, but even the poison was eliminated without a trace.

This is not something a fourth-level doctor can do.

The most vicious thing about the poison is that doctors have to pay a huge price to cure the poisoned people.

From luring the poisonous insect out of her body to completely removing the poison from her body, at least five fifth-level doctors like him would be needed, consuming all their true energy. If they were fourth-level doctors, even more people would be needed.

However, none of these imperial doctors lost their skills.

Even though he had lived for nearly two hundred years, he could not imagine how he had achieved the fourth level of cultivation.

The Emperor of Zhao could not wait any longer and asked, "How is it?"

The Medical Saint smiled and said, "Your Majesty, don't worry. The Sixth Princess is fine. You just need to be careful not to let those evildoers take advantage of you again."

Zhao Zhiyi looked at Li Nuo who still hadn't woken up and asked, "Senior Medical Saint, how is he?"

The Medical Saint looked at Li Nuo who was still in a coma and said, "He is fine, but his body is seriously overdrawn. Let him have a good sleep. He is a high-level doctor. Sleeping is the best way for him to recover. Don't disturb him. Just wait for him to wake up..."

He looked away from Li Nuo's face and asked Zhao Zhiyi, "The poison will only paralyze the body. When Your Highness was poisoned, you should have been conscious. Can you tell me how this young doctor saved you? This is very important to doctors..."

Zhao Zhiyi's earlobes turned slightly red, and he quickly shook his head and said, "I don't know either. It seems that I just took a nap, and when I woke up, he was already beside me. If Senior Medical Saint has any questions, I'd better ask him after he wakes up..."

The Medical Saint did not ask any more questions and left the hall with the other imperial physicians.

The Emperor of Zhao looked at Zhao Zhiyi and said, "Zhiyi, come with your father."

Zhao Zhiyi glanced at Li Nuo, gently covered him with the quilt, and followed the Emperor of Zhao to the imperial study.

The Emperor of Zhao sat on the dragon throne and asked, "Who poisoned you? Do you suspect anyone?"

Zhao Zhiyi was silent for a moment, then said, "It should be my brother."

Although she had many royal brothers, the only one who did not have a title before her was Prince Sheng, who had the same father and mother as her.

Last night, the emperor touched her head.

He must have cast the curse at that time.

If she hadn't woken up, I'm afraid few people would suspect the emperor.

If a new general election is held, the emperor's brother will be the one who benefits the most.

The Emperor of Zhao closed his eyes and said sadly: "My good son, he even killed his own sister..."

After a long time, he slowly opened his eyes and said, "Bring me the jade seal."

The eunuch in charge of seals quickly brought the imperial seal.

The Emperor of Zhao looked at Zhao Zhiyi and said, "I wanted to wait until the grand ceremony to officially pass the throne to you in front of all the officials. Now it seems that I can't wait until that time..."

He opened the imperial edict on the table and pressed the jade seal in his hand down hard.

When the jade seal was pressed, a faint light immediately emanated from the imperial edict.

Afterwards, a powerful force was gradually stripped away from the body of the Zhao emperor.

However, an aura appeared on Zhao Zhiyi's body and was rising rapidly.

The first realm, the second realm,..., the fifth realm, the sixth realm... The bottlenecks between the realms seemed to be non-existent to her. In a flash, an aura fluctuation comparable to that of the sixth realm emanated from her body.

This breath only appeared for a moment before it all returned to her body.

At the same time, in the capital of Zhao State, all the powerful men above the fifth level felt the heart-pounding power of the palace.

Zhao State, National Master’s Mansion.

The two old men who were playing chess raised their heads at the same time and looked in the direction of the imperial palace.

The fortune teller heaved a sigh of relief and said, "It is indeed the fate of an emperor..."

The State Master of Zhao asked, "Has anyone ever been able to change the princess's fate into the emperor's fate?"

The fortune teller shook his head and said, "It is unique."

Although the Yin-Yang School can change a person's destiny to a certain extent, even those at the peak of the sixth realm cannot do this.

I'm afraid only the seventh realm can change the destiny of the five dynasties.

But the person who accomplished all this was not a Yin-Yang master.

There are too many mysteries about him...

In the imperial study, the Emperor of Zhao stood up from the dragon throne. Two eunuchs wanted to help him, but he waved his hands, then raised his arms, felt his body, took a long breath, and said, "I haven't felt this relaxed for a long time..."

He walked up to Zhao Zhiyi and said with a smile: "Father's mission has been completed. The Kingdom of Zhao will be handed over to you next..."

Prince Sheng's Palace.

"What, Zhiyi is awake!"

After receiving the news, King Sheng was overjoyed and said repeatedly: "That's good, that's good..."

After walking back to the hall behind him and closing the door, his face darkened and he gritted his teeth and said, "Didn't you say that she would never wake up?"

He is her biological brother. If she never wakes up again, who would doubt him?

According to the number of votes, Prince An, Prince Shun and Prince Xiang are the most suspicious.

If there were another vote, not all officials who had supported her before would choose him, but he would have more chances than the other three.

He thought of many possibilities, but he never thought that she could wake up.

In the darkness, a figure slowly walked out. After a long silence, he spoke: "We didn't expect that there was only one fifth-level doctor on the continent. She couldn't have woken up..."

King Sheng said angrily: "But she woke up. What should we do now? Do you still have that kind of thing?"

The man in black robe shook his head and said, "There are some, but they are useless now. Just now, the Emperor of Zhao has passed the throne to her in advance, and the poisonous insect can no longer get close to her..."

King Sheng trembled and fell into a chair.

In other words, he has no chance?

The man in black robe took one last look at him and said, "Take care of yourself..."

Watching the man in black robe disappear in the hall, King Sheng punched the armrest of the chair heavily and completely collapsed.

Soon, they arrived at an inn in the capital.

A figure pushed the door open and entered. After closing the door, he shook his head and said, "What a pity. I never expected that someone could remove the poison. With the Sixth Princess ascending to the throne, the relationship between Zhao and Xia will probably not change in the short term..."

Another figure sitting at the table took a sip of tea and said, "It doesn't matter. Zhao and Xia are the weakest of the five countries. Even if they join forces, they are nothing to be afraid of."

The man narrowed his eyes and said, "The top scholar in six subjects of Xia Country will sooner or later ruin our bigger plans..."

The Sixth Princess was murdered, but fortunately no irreversible consequences were caused.

The officials of Zhao State breathed a sigh of relief, and were then told that His Majesty had abdicated the throne ahead of schedule and the Sixth Princess had taken full control of state affairs.

From today on, Zhao State is about to usher in a new era.

Zhaoyang Palace.

Her Majesty the Queen sat beside the bed, quietly looking at Li Nuo who was still sleeping.

The Medical Saint was right. From beginning to end, she was conscious but could not control her body.

So, she always knew what was happening around her.

The words of the Medical Saint had already made her completely despair, and she thought she was going to die in consciousness.

Until he showed up.

She had always thought he was omnipotent.

This is exactly the case.

Although she still didn't know how he saved her, there was no doubt that he gave up something very important in order to save her.

A female official came in and said, "Your Majesty, a girl named Song wants to break into the palace and is confronting the guards..."

Zhao Zhiyi said softly: "Let her in."

A moment later, Song Yiren walked into Zhaoyang Palace. When she saw Li Nuo lying on the bed, she ran over quickly and asked in panic, "What happened to him?"

Zhao Zhiyi explained: "Miss Song, don't worry, he just fell asleep."

Song Yiren held Li Nuo's hand and felt his pulse, only then did she finally feel relieved.

When she looked at Zhao Zhiyi again, a look of surprise appeared on her face.

In her eyes, the Sixth Princess has always been a weak woman who is powerless.

But at this moment, she couldn't see through her at all.

The aura on her body was extremely obscure, which made her feel palpitating.

Zhao Zhiyi looked at the two people's tightly clasped hands and asked, "Miss Yiren, what is going on between you two..."

Song Yiren said: "He is my husband."

It was not until today that she could finally say this with confidence.

He is her husband, he was, he is, and he will be in the future.

Zhao Zhiyi moved her lips, but in the end she couldn't say anything. After a long silence, she stood up and said, "Miss Song, please stay here with him until he wakes up. I'm leaving first..."

After walking out of the hall, she looked back with a complicated look.

Li Nuo opened his eyes, and the feeling of physical overdraft had completely disappeared.

He felt extremely energetic, as if he had just had a very long dream.

However, the code stated that there were only 5,000 days of life left, which meant that it was not a dream.

He exchanged his medical skills for the fifth level several times, and the life span he gained from wiping out the thieves of Zhao State was all returned.

However, as long as the Sixth Princess is fine, it's all worth it.

For him, lifespan is something that can be replenished at any time. If something happens to the Sixth Princess, not only will all his efforts over the past few months be wasted, but his retreat will also be completely cut off.

He sat up in bed and looked around.

He was still in the Sixth Princess' bedroom. He was the only one in the hall.

A figure walked in from outside the hall. When Song Yiren saw Li Nuo, she quickly walked to the bed and asked with concern, "What's wrong with you? Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?"

Li Nuo felt the situation inside his body and said, "No."

Song Yiren breathed a sigh of relief, sat next to him, and said, "You slept for three days and three nights!"

It is normal to sleep for so long when the body is extremely overdrawn. Fortunately, his own medical energy is still there, and he can recover to full health after a good sleep.

He looked at Yiren and asked, "Is the Sixth Princess okay?"

Song Yiren rolled her eyes at him and said, "I've been sleeping for three days, and you still have the mind to care about others..."

She turned her head and said, "She's fine!"

Li Nuo held her hand and said with a smile: "Why, are you jealous?"

Song Yiren's pretty face turned slightly red. She symbolically struggled a few times and said angrily, "Who is jealous?"

Li Nuo held her in his arms and said, "Of course I have to care about the Sixth Princess. Nothing must happen to her. If our family can no longer stay in Daxia, we can come to Zhao State to seek refuge with her..."

Song Yiren no longer cared about what happened just now. She leaned in Li Nuo's arms and said with a red face: "Who is your family? I haven't promised you yet!"

Li Nuo said: "If you don't agree, I will tell Jia Ren, An Ning, and my mother-in-law about you kissing me secretly."

Song Yiren said in shame and anger: "You rascal, you kissed me secretly too!"

Li Nuo said: "You are a rogue. You chose the marriage certificate yourself. Do you want to break off the engagement?"

He used to keep a distance from her deliberately, and when he suddenly spoke to her like this, Song Yiren was a little uncomfortable for a moment. Her face turned red to her ears, and she broke free from Li Nuo's arms and ran out quickly.

Not long after, another figure walked in from outside, looked at Li Nuo, and said, "You're awake. How do you feel? Do you want to ask the imperial physician to come?"

Li Nuo smiled and said, "You forgot that I am a doctor myself."

He got off the bed, stretched his body, and said, "Don't worry, my body has completely recovered. But you, do you feel uncomfortable? The poison is very strong..."

Zhao Zhiyi said: "The Medical Saint has diagnosed me. He said that the poison in my body has been completely cleared."

Li Nuo looked at Zhao Zhiyi and always felt that she was different from before.

Having been together for so long, Li Nuo is very familiar with her.

At this moment, there was an indescribable aura about her.

Li Nuo had only felt this kind of aura from the emperors of Daxia and Zhao.

He looked at Zhao Zhiyi and asked, "Have you ascended the throne?"

Zhao Zhiyi nodded and said, "My father held the ceremony in advance yesterday."

As one of the five most powerful dynasties on the continent, the Emperor of Zhao had already reached the sixth realm of cultivation when she first ascended the throne. No wonder Li Nuo could no longer see through her.

Thinking of something, Li Nuo sensed his body.

Sure enough, there was an additional power in his dantian.

There is a lot of power in his body. This power is the last to appear, but it is the most powerful, even stronger than his legalist power.

Comparable to the peak of the fourth realm.

This power, of course, belongs to the strategist.

No wonder so many counselors are trying their best to become disciples of the princes.

Small plans can be made for the family, big plans can be made for the country, and following the dragon is undoubtedly the supreme shortcut for the strategist to practice.

In supporting the empress to ascend the throne, his strategy reached the peak of the fourth realm.

Even so, Li Nuo still felt it was not enough.

Although Zhao was the weakest among the five dynasties, it was also a superpower. He didn't dare to say that he had 100% of the credit for the Sixth Princess' ascension to the throne, but it was probably at least 80%. These credits were enough for him to directly advance to the fifth realm.

But the result was a little off.

He felt that God had given him a short shrift.

But there is no way to complain or review such things.

Zhao Zhiyi took something out of his sleeve and handed it to Li Nuo: "Here, this is for you."

"What's this?"

Li Nuo asked casually. This thing was a palm-sized gold medal, which felt heavy in the hand. There was a five-clawed golden dragon on the back and only one word "Ling" on the front.

Zhao Zhiyi said softly: "It is specially made for you. With this token, you can command the various departments. Seeing this token is like seeing me."

Li Nuo took a deep breath, and the already heavy token in his hand seemed to become even heavier.

He knew very well how much weight this sentence meant: "Seeing this card is like seeing me."

Although my father was always said to be the emperor's favorite, he did not have this privilege.

This was acknowledged by the Queen herself. With this card, he was the executive vice emperor of Zhao State, truly second only to the emperor and above everyone else. His power was far beyond that of a prime minister.

He has the Empress protecting him and friends everywhere in the court. Can't he do whatever he wants in Zhao State?

Da Xia would never give him these. She was so good to him, he was really reluctant to leave...

Zhao Zhiyi glanced at him and said, "I am not the kind of person who forgets my friends just because I became an emperor..."

Li Nuo was slightly stunned and asked, "Did you hear it?"

The next moment, a look of realization appeared on his face. The situation was critical at the time and he had forgotten for a moment that the poison would only paralyze the body, and the person who was poisoned would always be conscious.

Zhao Zhiyi looked at him and asked, "How is it? I'm nice to you, right? Do you want to seriously consider staying in Zhao State? I will send someone to bring your family over..."
