Chapter 235 System Opening
After feeding Master Ziying the previous medicine, there was no improvement. His breathing even became more turbid, which was a sign that his condition was worsening.
After feeding Fusu, Zhao Yuanxi walked towards Ziying's room with the bowl of soup. Hearing the occasional coughing coming from the room, tears flashed in her eyes.
Fusu stopped her and said, "Grandmother, let me go feed Ziying!"
Although the eldest mother said she was fine, Fusu was still worried. Ziying had already been in trouble, and he couldn't bear to see the eldest mother get into trouble too.
"It's okay, Big Mother has divine power to protect me, nothing can hurt me."
This body is indeed a little weak, but the pill that she took to cure all diseases was not taken in vain. Zhao Yuanxi even felt a little regretful. Why did she not leave the medicine for curing the disease but the detoxification pill instead?
Ziying's room was filled with the smell of mugwort. As soon as Zhao Yuanxi entered, she couldn't help coughing twice. The little person on the bed still showed no signs of waking up. She put down the bowl of soup in her hand and touched Ziying's forehead, which was still very hot.
She took some warm water, soaked a cloth in it, and wiped Ziying's neck, armpits, palms and other parts. The palace maids who stayed behind were not allowed to enter this room and could only do some odd jobs outside.
The imperial physician also disagreed with Zhao Yuanxi entering this room, but after the empress dowager's repeated assurances, she was allowed to enter and leave this room.
After wiping, Ziying's wrinkled little face relaxed a little, and he opened his eyes in a daze. He moved his mouth but could not make any sound.
Zhao Yuanxi saw him wake up, and the towel in his hand almost slipped. "You're awake! Ziying, how are you feeling now? Where's the imperial physician? Send him over quickly!"
Ziying felt a severe headache, his whole body felt light and his hands and feet seemed to be out of his control. He tried hard to make a sound, but the volume was so low that it was impossible to hear clearly unless you listened carefully.
"Mother, am I going to die?"
"Nonsense, Ziying is fine, you are just sick! Your grandmother made your favorite soup for you, you will get better soon after eating it!" Zhao Yuanxi hurriedly wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, picked up the bowl of soup, and fed it into Ziying's mouth bit by bit.
It was obviously the thick soup that Ziying usually loved to drink, but it tasted bland in his mouth. He tried hard to drink more, but the discomfort in his abdomen made his stomach churn up and down, and he vomited out everything he had just drunk in an instant.
The soup bowl smashed to the ground, and broken pieces of pottery flew everywhere, just like Zhao Yuanxi's turbulent heart at the moment.
She suppressed the bitterness in her heart, and quickly wiped the dirt from the corner of his mouth, comforting him, "It's okay, I'll do it for you later!"
Ziying blinked his eyes, "Don't cry, mother! I'm fine!"
His eyelids drooped, and he said weakly, "Mom, I'm a little sleepy. I'll take a nap first. I'll be fine when I wake up!"
Ziying fell into a coma again. This time, Zhao Yuanxi couldn't help crying and covered her face.
Until a pair of small hands hugged her arms, Zhao Yuanxi wiped the tears from her face, looked up and saw Fusu's worried face, "I'm sorry for making you worry! Can we go make another bowl of soup for Ziying?"
Fusu nodded.
After cleaning up the broken pottery pieces on the ground, Zhao Yuanxi took Fusu to the kitchen again and made a new portion. It took a lot of effort before he finally got Ziying to drink something.
As night fell, the palace maids were on guard at the door, and the imperial physician was busy researching what medicine to use. Because besides Ziying, another palace maid was sick, the imperial physician had to use him to test the medicine first.
After taking bowl after bowl of medicine, his symptoms did not improve.
Not only that, Fusu's condition worsened that night. He, who was originally in good spirits, developed a high fever and looked very sick.
The imperial doctors secretly thought that this was not good and were extremely anxious. If Prince Ziying could not be saved, Prince Fusu would also die, and they would not know whether they could still survive.
After Zhao Yuanxi coaxed Fusu to sleep, he leaned tiredly on the edge of the bed, constantly calling the system in his heart. Then his eyes went black and he fainted.
When she opened her eyes again, she found herself back in the system space. After the system upgrade, the giant light curtain in the middle disappeared, and was replaced by a smooth sphere with some faint bulges visible on it.
Zhao Yuanxi looked at the familiar object, reached out and touched it, and confirmed that what was in front of her was a simulated earth. Except for the lack of color, it was exactly the same as the earth she was familiar with.
No, it cannot be said that there is no color. In the Hetao Plain, you can faintly see a fluorescent light green.
That was the land developed by Zhao Yuanxi and his people. She had agreed with Ying Zheng that 10% of the reclaimed wasteland would belong to her. Those green areas were the land she owned.
As for the Qin State, except for Yongcheng where there is a bit of green, other places are light grayish white, and everything else is pure white.
Zhao Yuanxi had no idea what the system was doing. The previous screen disappeared, and she was not sure if she could still communicate with the system.
【System, are you still there? 】
[Yes, host, long time no see, the system will continue to serve you. ]
It's no longer subtitles, but sound.
Only then did Zhao Yuanxi realize that the colors that had appeared on the ground before had turned into real objects. Grass had grown around the system space, and water was flowing through it.
This space actually has life.
【Why did you suddenly upgrade? 】
[The system automatically upgrades when it receives enough willpower]
[Willpower?]
[When the host cultivates the land, he is actually harvesting willpower, which is the energy required for the system to operate. The willpower previously obtained could only maintain the existence of the system, but because the host has developed the Hetao area and gained the faith of 100,000 Zhao people, the system has the power to upgrade.]
[After system evaluation, the host will no longer be limited to relying on farming to obtain willpower. You can also obtain willpower through your own methods. The stronger the willpower, the more green the planet will be!]
It turns out that the green does not refer to the land she owns, but the degree of willingness that the people on that land can provide to her, or it can be said that it is the faith that the people there have in her.
Zhao Yuanxi: [What can vows do?]
[Host, don't you want to go home? To break through the barrier of time and space, you need a lot of willpower, so the more willpower the host obtains, the sooner you can go home! Or you can choose to capture Ying Zheng and achieve perfection directly!]
Zhao Yuanxi was not so anxious about these two things.
[Besides this, is there anything else you can do to help me? ]
The system proudly said: [Of course, I will provide the host with various props. Doesn't the host like the rewards given by the system? There will be even more generous rewards later!]
In other words, the functionality has not changed in essence, it just gives Zhao Yuanxi more freedom.
Zhao Yuanxi couldn't wait to ask: "I have already completed the previous mission. Can I change the reward you promised me?"
