Because of the scar, even Wei Jie's sickly face had a hint of hideousness, and his lips were abnormally white. On his exposed arms, the pale skin made the blue veins more obvious and abrupt.

The room was filled with a heavy smell of traditional Chinese medicine, which did not seem to have formed in a day or even half an hour.

Wei Yuchen walked to the bedside and frowned slightly, "Why is he so seriously ill?"

If it was fake, it would be too real. Could it be that his old illness really relapsed?

Wei Jie lowered his eyes and glanced at Wei Yuchen calmly: "Thank you for your concern, brother. This is an old illness, it's nothing serious."

Seeing that he had already gotten used to it, Wei Yuchen was more certain of his previous speculation. Thinking of this, he immediately looked back and said, "Doctor Wen, come and have a look at King Feng."

Doctor Wen, the newly appointed director of the Imperial Medical Bureau, was about thirty years old, very young, and looked like an elegant scholar. When he saw Wei Jie, he bowed respectfully.

Wei Jie stretched out his arm expressionlessly and nodded gently to him: "Thank you."

Doctor Wen was flattered and said, "I dare not. This is what I should do."

He immediately calmed down and carefully felt Wei Jie's pulse.

At that time, Wei Yuchen had already sat next to Wei Jie and said in a complaining tone: "If I had known that you were so seriously ill, I should have come earlier. I thought you were the same as before."

Wei Jie twitched his lower lip and said calmly, "My body has always been like this, and I can't predict when my old illness will relapse. This time I overdrawn my energy, so I look so weak. I just need to recuperate. Thank you, Your Majesty, for your concern."

"I brought a lot of medicinal herbs with me. If you need anything in the future, just let me know."

"Thank you, my dear brother, for your reward."

"We are brothers, why are you being polite?"

"What's wrong?" When Doctor Wen's hand moved from Wei Jie's pulse, Wei Yuchen asked hurriedly with concern.

Doctor Wen raised his eyes and looked towards Wei Jie, "Your Majesty, I would like to take another look at your tongue coating and eyelids."

Wei Jie nodded in cooperation, closed his eyes and stuck out his tongue.

After a thorough examination, Doctor Wen could not hide his surprise. "Your Highness' pulse is very weak, your internal energy is seriously exhausted, and many organs are severely damaged. Your body is even more exhausted. Logically, your condition should be more serious. I didn't expect that Your Highness seems to be better than I imagined. May I ask, Your Highness, has anyone treated you?"

Wei Jie nodded without hiding anything: "My meridians are all broken, my essence is ruptured, it was the future Princess Feng who helped me through the danger, but the loss is too great, I still need to rest."

Doctor Wen immediately showed a look of admiration, "No wonder, no wonder, I think it is incredible that the prince can still hold on under such circumstances. It turns out that a master has already diagnosed and treated the prince."

"Very serious?" Wei Yuchen on the side finally heard it. It seemed that Wei Jie's condition was far beyond his expectations.

"Your Majesty, His Majesty is currently extremely weak and needs to stay in bed for more than half a year. He may even need to take medication every day."

Before Doctor Wen finished speaking, Wei Yuchen turned his head and frowned at Wei Jie: "How could you get yourself into this state?"

After hearing this, Wei Jie said calmly, "Our opponent is the Dragon Empire. I dare not be careless. I am lucky to be alive. It is my fault that you are worried about me."

"It's already like this, why are you still talking nonsense? Take care of yourself for half a year, then your marriage,"

Before Wei Yuchen finished speaking, Wei Jie said nonchalantly, "Although my illness is serious, it is not difficult for me to get married, so you don't have to worry about it. When the date is set, just let me know. Of course, if possible, I hope the date can be moved forward, the sooner the better. After all, my health still needs to be taken care of by the future Princess Feng. What do you think, Your Majesty?"

Wei Yuchen raised his eyebrows, "It's really rare. As far as I know, you have always looked down on this marriage."

Wei Jie said expressionlessly, "It doesn't matter whether you like me or not. What matters is that this marriage was arranged by my brother. If my brother thinks it's good, then it's good. Besides, the future Princess Feng is better than I thought. If it weren't for her, I would have died. Thank you for your consideration. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have had such good luck."

Wei Yuchen was secretly resentful in his heart, and his hands in his sleeves clenched unconsciously. The expression he looked at Wei Jie became even more gloomy. But after Wei Jie said such words, he just blocked what he wanted to say. Damn it!

He cursed in his heart, but when he looked up again, he hid all his emotions and looked kind: "In this case, my royal brother should have a good rest. You don't need to worry about other things. I will arrange it."

"Then I'll have to trouble you, my royal brother." Wei Yuchen smiled stiffly and headed back to the palace.

On the way back to the palace, Wei Yuchen still wanted to ask Doctor Wen: "Is the seventh elder's illness really serious?"

Doctor Wen did not dare to hide anything: "Your Majesty, His Highness the Phoenix King is indeed seriously exhausted. He must have been seriously injured before. I also noticed that there are scars of various sizes on the prince's body, and even traces of burns. These marks were left not long ago. Although they have scabs, the wounds are very fresh and do not seem fake."

Wei Yuchen frowned: "Where did he get injured? Why doesn't anyone who came back know?"

"This... I dare not speak rashly,"

Those soldiers who went with them were lucky enough to come back alive. With their strength, how could they be a match for those people from the Dragon Empire?

The Phoenix King was seriously injured this time, he must have encountered a strong enemy. Even those people didn't know about it, which is enough to show that this person's strength must be so high that even they can't detect it.

As he thought about it, he couldn't help but shed tears of sympathy for this war king who was devoted to the Siyou Kingdom. He was so loyal to his country, why did the emperor never believe in him?

Suspicion, suspicion, indifference, cold-blooded...

I just don't know if Feng Wang can get through this safely.

He intuitively thought that the emperor would not so easily let go of the opportunity to wipe out the remaining followers of the Phoenix King in one fell swoop.

If he really did this, haha, I'm afraid that half of the sky of Siyou Kingdom would collapse, right?

But think about it, it seems that this is not the first time that the emperor has done such a thing.

The last time it was the General’s Mansion and the late Queen, so what about this time?

Doctor Wen didn't even need to think about it, he had basically predicted what the Phoenix King's ending would be...

After returning to the palace, Wei Yuchen pinched his brows and remained silent for a long time before looking at Wende and Xiao Su beside him: "What do you two think?"

Xiao Su said indifferently: "It's true."

Eunuch Wende also looked confident: "I can see that the prince is really ill, and judging from the situation, it is very serious. This time is different from the previous situation. The whole room is filled with the smell of medicine, it must be fake."

Wei Yuchen frowned and asked back:

"If he is really that ill, then who stole my letter? Tell me, who else could care more about Li Yuan now?"

After these words were spoken, Wende and Xiao Su fell silent at the same time. Indeed, apart from Wei Jie, who else could care more about this marriage than him?

Being able to intercept the emperor's messenger silently is something that no ordinary person can do. Could it be that King Feng really did this in private?

"His body is ill, but his brain is fine. Even I dare not underestimate the subordinates he has secretly kept. Who else could it be but him? Moreover, didn't he just mention this marriage as if nothing had happened? It seems that this guy is serious for once."

In the past, no matter what he did, he always looked uninterested and indifferent. Even when he sent people to assassinate him, he never showed so much care as he did today.

The more he did this, the more uneasy he became.

If he lets it go on, Wei Jie's wings will become even harder. By that time, will he still be able to cut off his wings?

The more Wei Yuchen thought about it, the uglier his expression became. If that was the case, then don't blame him for being cruel and ruthless.

Thinking of this, he suddenly raised his eyes and looked at Xiao Su: "You go in person."

Fengwang Mansion, Xuanyuan Pavilion

Qing Ye was standing outside the door when he suddenly heard a strange movement. He turned his head and saw a small black snake that almost blended into the darkness flying towards him with its waist twisted.

Qing Ye stretched out his hand and the snake wrapped around his arm accurately, spitting out its tongue and quickly crawled to his shoulder. Then, a black pill came out of its mouth.

With a "pop", it rolled into Qingye's palm. Qingye pinched the wax ball and took a look. His expression suddenly changed and he flashed into the pavilion.

"Your Highness, there is movement. Xiao Su just left the palace. Judging from the direction he is heading, he should be heading to Mei Country. Do you want to stop him?"

Wei Jie glanced at him calmly and said, "No need, let him go."

Qing Ye looked up in surprise, but heard Wei Jie continue to instruct: "You can start preparing the things you were asked to prepare."

Qing Ye and Qing Xuan showed joy on their faces and immediately bowed and retreated.
