Chen Zhi nodded in agreement with a deep, resonant voice.

Three days later, Zhou Xuance entered the palace.
He did not specify what happened, only saying, "The Crown Prince is truly pure and filial. In addition to handling state affairs, he even personally served his elder brother medicine."
How is His Majesty's health?
"It's alright. He's getting on in years, so his recovery will be a bit slower."
