Chapter 555 Is Your Father Getting Confused Too?
The next day, Zi Tong took Bai Yu'an and Fuxing to see Zi Yunlai, and announced that the King of Chu wanted the national teacher and the high priest to calculate the fate of the East Chu country.
"Greetings to the Emperor of Chu!" When they saw the person, Bai Yu'an and Fuxing bowed their heads together and did not perform any formal greetings.
"Master, High Priest, there's no need to be so polite." Zi Yunlai was half lying on the couch, with her black hair hanging down behind her, looking like a beautiful sick woman, broken and broken.
He said with a smile, "We... are more like friends."
"Father!" Zi Tong felt that this was a bit inappropriate. Zi Yunlai was the emperor after all. Although the imperial teacher and the high priest had extraordinary status, they could not be compared with his father.
Zi Yunlai smiled. He understood what his son meant and didn't say much.
Zi Tong walked over and took out Bai Yu'an's medicine box, which he had brought last night.
He handed the medicine box to Bai Yu'an, glanced at Fuxing out of the corner of his eye, and then said to Bai Yu'an, "Master Imperial Master, I'm in trouble."
Bai Yu'an nodded, walked forward, sat on the chair next to the couch, and began to take Ziyun's pulse.
Zi Yunlai's pulse was difficult and unsmooth, like a light knife scraping bamboo. This was caused by qi stagnation and blood stasis blocking the lung meridians. In addition, the pulse rhythm was irregular and sometimes stopped, which indicated that the patient had a serious lung disease in the late stage affecting the heart qi and heart yang.
In other words, Zi Yunlai suffered from lung disease, and the disease was in the late stage and was indeed difficult to cure.
Bai Yu'an's expression became more serious and he slowly withdrew his hand.
"Master Imperial Master, how is it?" Zi Tong immediately stepped forward and asked with a worried look.
Bai Yu'an didn't answer in a hurry. He first glanced at Zi Yunlai, as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.
"Haha..." Zi Yunlai chuckled, "Master Imperial Master, there's no need to feel any psychological burden. I know my own body best. Master Imperial Master, please speak frankly."
At this time, Zi Tong also understood that the result might not be so good.
He sniffed and said with a choked voice, "Master Imperial Master, please speak frankly."
"The King of Chu's illness... is indeed incurable. I'm afraid... he is powerless and beyond help." Bai Yu'an sighed softly.
When Zi Tong heard this, although he was mentally prepared, he still couldn't bear it when he heard it again with his own ears. He turned around and ran behind the bookshelf and started crying softly.
Zi Yunlai smiled and shook his head. "Alas, after all, he's still a child. He already knew it a long time ago, so why be so sad?"
He seemed to have let things go, and said to Bai Yu'an and Fuxing with a smile, "Who knows what the other world is like? Maybe if we go there, all the suffering we have endured in this life will be compensated."
Bai Yu'an thought secretly that the Emperor Chu in front of him was obviously a regional overlord, and Dong Chu had the confidence in front of all countries, but who would have thought that the Emperor Chu seemed to have a lot of troubles and regrets.
After a while, Zi Tong finally calmed down and came back. "Master Imperial Master, can you... do something? Or should we do something? At least don't make my father suffer so much."
"I can give Emperor Chu acupuncture every day to relieve his pain." Bai Yu'an said immediately. This was the only thing he could do.
"Great." Zi Tong was delighted and clasped his hands together, saying, "Then I'll trouble you, Imperial Master."
Bai Yu'an opened his medicine box and found a portrait at the bottom of it... It was a portrait of Fuxing.
He hesitated for a moment and looked up at Zi Tong. Zi Tong took the medicine box away yesterday and should have checked it inside and out, so Zi Tong looked at the portrait. However, the lucky star in the portrait was not wearing a hood. He wondered if Zi Tong could tell that the portrait was of lucky star.
Bai Yu'an quickly collected his thoughts, took out his silver needles, closed the medicine box again, and began to give acupuncture to Emperor Chu.
"High Priest, let's go sit outside and wait." Zi Tong said softly to Fuxing.
Fuxing nodded and followed Zi Tong outside.
"Please take a seat, High Priest!" Zi Tong sat on the other side of the table. He saw the portrait and guessed that the person in the portrait was Fuxing.
If it was someone else, it might be difficult to recognize her, but he had learned to paint since he was a child, so even if he couldn't see Fuxing's face at this time, just by looking at her figure, he knew that she was the woman in the portrait.
So... the current Imperial Master has a crush on the High Priest?
Zi Tong thought for a moment and spoke slowly, "The last time I went to Dajin, I only met the High Priest once. I didn't expect to have the chance to see him again."
Fuxing just sat there quietly, without any response to Zi Tong's incoherent words.
"I was quite impressed by the previous Imperial Preceptor," Zi Tong said to herself. "Like Miss Fuxing, he never took off his hood, and his voice was a bit scary. The current Second Young Master Bai is much more likable."
Fuxing nodded.
Zi Tong smiled, vaguely feeling that Fuxing seemed to treat Bai Yu'an a little differently.
However, he didn't say much. He was not sure whether these two people were useful to him and Dong Chu, and what use they were.
Soon, Bai Yu'an's side was over.
Zi Tong personally sent the two out, but unexpectedly met Wei Changkong at the door.
This was the first time that Bai Yu'an and Fuxing met the famous General Wei.
"Uncle Wei? Why are you here?" Zi Tong was startled when she saw Wei Changkong, but soon greeted him warmly, "Uncle Wei hasn't been to the palace for a while, and the emperor always misses you."
Wei Changkong is tall and strong, the kind of person who looks like a giant when standing in a crowd.
After entering the palace, he was still wearing black iron armor and had a sword on his waist. It was obvious that he had no fear of the royal family or the King of Chu.
Wei Changkong ignored Zi Tong's words, it was more like he didn't take Zi Tong seriously at all.
He looked helplessly at Bai Yu'an and Fuxing, "Where did these two monsters come from? Why are they dressed like this?"
"Uncle Wei, these are the distinguished guests my father and I invited from Dajin. They are the entourage of the Second Prince of Dajin on his trip to Dongchu, the Imperial Master and the High Priest."
Zi Yu pretended not to hear Wei Changkong's rude words and explained with a smile, "Today, the emperor specially summoned them to pray for us Dong Chu."
"Hmph!" Wei Changkong sneered. "What about the Imperial Master and the High Priest? They're all just folk tricks. The Emperor of Great Jin is so foolish. Is your father also getting confused?"
Zi Tong laughed dryly twice.
At this time, Bai Yu'an could not listen any longer and slowly said, "General Wei, as a subject, I will not comment on the emperor of the Great Jin Dynasty, but I cannot find anyone as rude as General Wei in the palace."
Wei Changkong narrowed his eyes, suddenly drew the sword from his waist, and slashed at Bai Yu'an.
The speed was so fast and the force was so great that Zi Tong opened his mouth in shock.
"General Wei, don't be impulsive!"
