Chapter 233: Frightened
The information he had received that day was truly difficult for Ying Zheng to accept. He frowned and asked, "So that power is the key to your existence in this world? What would happen to you if that power disappeared?"
Make the system disappear?
Zhao Yuanxi really didn't know what would happen to her after the system disappeared, but combined with this system upgrade, it was confirmed that she was indeed inseparable from the system. If the system malfunctioned, she would be trapped in Zhao Ji's body forever.
"He will probably fall into a coma like the last two days, or die."
Ying Zheng's breathing stagnated and he clenched his sleeves with both hands.
Seeing his frown, Zhao Yuanxi asked tentatively, "Are you worried about me?"
"You are now the Queen Mother of Qin. Any accident that happens to you will be a major event for Qin."
Zhao Yuanxi curled her lips. She just thought that it was Ying Zheng who was worried about her. After he knew that she was not his mother, she realized that she was just the Queen Mother of Qin and was actually an insignificant person!
However, he didn't seem to have any ill will towards him, or be afraid of him, and he even cared about his safety. Zhao Yuanxi couldn't help but feel secretly happy in his heart, at least his life was saved.
I won't have any psychological burden when facing him in the future! Although I didn't have any psychological burden before!
Seeing her smiling face, Ying Zheng seemed to feel more at ease. "Queen Dowager, please remember your identity and don't put yourself in danger."
Zhao Yuanxi's eyes lit up. It seemed that his work these days had not been in vain. The 51% increase in favorability wasn't in vain either. This guy wasn't that heartless! He was obviously still worried about him!
"This was just an accident. Don't worry, I'm not someone who jokes about my life."
There was doubt in Ying Zheng's eyes. Anyone could believe this statement, but the words of the Queen Mother were too unreliable.
"You haven't told me your name yet."
"Zhao Yuanxi, my name is Zhao Yuanxi, but you can't call me that! Don't be disrespectful. Although I'm not your biological mother, I'm still your elder! If you don't want to call me mother in private, you can call me Aunt Zhao or Teacher Zhao."
"I'll remember this!"
There was a knock on the door. "The meal is ready, my king. Please bring it in now."
Ying Zheng: "Bring it in!"
Zhao Yuanxi had been hungry for two days. Although the imperial physician had given her some unknown liquid, it was obviously not enough to fill her stomach. She was now starving and was just waiting for a big meal.
Zhao Yuanxi was eating with big mouthfuls of food.
Ying Zheng, who was sitting next to him, also had a bowl of corn porridge in his hand, but his appetite was not as good as that of the person next to him.
Seeing the Queen Mother eating so contentedly, he chuckled softly and asked casually, "What was the world like before the Queen Mother?"
He was very curious about what kind of place would produce someone with the Queen Mother's personality.
"Where everyone has enough to eat, there's no war and no unrest." Zhao Yuanxi added, "At least that's the case in China."
Ying Zheng raised his eyebrows, which means that in addition to the Queen Mother's country, there are other countries, and those countries are likely to be at war.
No country dares to say that it can feed everyone. Since the Queen Mother has sufficient food and can avoid war, there is only one possibility, that is, the country is extremely powerful, so that foreign enemies dare not invade.
"The Queen Mother's country is very powerful?"
"Of course!" Zhao Yuanxi was very proud.
"How does it compare to the Qin State?"
Zhao Yuanxi's smile froze on his face. "You can't compare like that."
The Qin State was naturally the strongest in this era, but it was not from the same era as China two thousand years later.
"In this world, Qin is the strongest, and in that world, my country is also the strongest."
The Queen Mother's vague answer confirmed Ying Zheng's guess that Qin was not as good as her country!
This is really interesting.
Ying Zheng said confidently, "My Qin State will also be as prosperous as yours in the future."
Of course! Zhao Yuanxi gave Ying Zheng a thumbs up in her heart. Isn't it just as good as hers?
The news that Queen Dowager Zhao had awakened spread quickly. Fusu and Ziying had just come out from Chunyu Yue's place when they heard that their grandmother had woken up, so they ran over one after the other.
The palace maids at the door tried to stop them, but were shouted away by Fusu.
Zhao Yuanxi heard the noise outside, stood up and walked towards the door, just in time to bump into two little guys running in, and was immediately hugged tightly by them.
The two of them cried inconsolably and their bodies kept shaking.
Zhao Yuanxi knew that he had really scared them this time, so he quickly hugged them in his arms and comforted them in a gentle voice, "It's okay, it's okay, Grandmother is fine! Isn't I awake now?"
They didn't say anything, but just held Zhao Yuanxi tighter.
Zhao Yuanxi's eyes were full of tenderness as he touched the back of their heads, silently comforting them.
After a long time, Fusu emerged from Zhao Yuanxi's arms. His eyes were red and swollen, and his voice was hoarse. "Is Grandmother feeling unwell?"
"I'm not feeling unwell, I just had a minor problem, which has now been resolved."
"Mom, I'm so scared!" Fusu sobbed, tears streaming down his face.
These two days have not only tortured Ying Zheng, but also Fusu and Ziying.
He and Ziying had just met their great mother again, and the next day they learned that she was in a coma. They were really scared. If their great mother was gone, it was hard to imagine what would happen to them.
But his father didn't allow them to accompany his grandmother. Fusu felt like he was walking on the edge of a cliff these two days, always worried about bad news from Ganquan Palace.
"I'm sorry! I'm sorry!" Zhao Yuanxi hugged them tightly, tears falling down.
Ziying's face turned red from crying. "Is Grandmother really okay now?"
"I'm really fine!" Zhao Yuanxi wiped the tears from his face, letting them take a good look at him. He smiled and said, "Look, I'm fine, right? I just ate a lot!"
"I'm glad that mother is okay." Ziying rolled his eyes, leaned forward, and suddenly fainted.
Zhao Yuanxi hurriedly picked him up. Although he was so small, he felt as if he weighed tens of thousands of pounds. Her hands and feet were shaking. She shouted, "Where's the imperial physician? Call the imperial physician!"
Ying Zheng was also startled, "Why don't you send for the imperial physician quickly?"
Ziying's face was very red, and he was still talking nonsense. You could vaguely hear him calling the word "mother".
Zhao Yuanxi just felt that his heart was about to break.
It's all her fault. Not only did she fail to take good care of Ziying, but she also made Ziying worry about her!
"Grandmother is fine, Ziying, wake up and look at me!" Zhao Yuanxi choked up and tears welled up in his eyes.
