"Drink your medicine first!"
"Afterwards, I have a few words to say to you," Shi Jing said.
"Mm." Zhu Zhen nodded.
Gu Yue squatted down, brought the bowl to his mouth, and used a spoon to slowly pour the food down his throat.
After finishing his medicine, Zhu Zhen sat up with Gu Yue's help and looked at Shi Jing, "Miss Shi, is there anything you want to say to me?"
To be specific, what you have is not an illness!
"They were poisoned!" Shi Jing said.
Upon hearing this, Zhu Zhen's expression immediately changed, and even Chen Tiansheng frowned.
The person who poisoned the prince must have been incredibly audacious.
"Miss Shi Jing, was the prince truly poisoned?" Gu Yue asked.
"Hmm." Shi Jing nodded.
"The most serious disease right now is none other than cancer!"
"In the late stages of cancer, the tumor metastasizes and endangers other organs!"
"And at this stage, people are generally sallow-faced, emaciated, and weak!"
"As for the prince's symptoms, his internal organs are all rotting. The tumors formed by cancer could not possibly be broken down in such large quantities, nor at such a fast pace!"
"Moreover, apart from his pale complexion, the prince's body is no different from that of a normal person."
"His voice was loud and strong!"
"Judging from these two points, the prince is not ill!"
"They were poisoned!"
"That's true!" Upon hearing this, both Zhu Zhen and Chen Tiansheng nodded.
If he had cancer, he wouldn't even have the strength to walk, let alone come to Jiangnan.
"I fainted once in Beijing!"
"The eight most skilled and experienced doctors at the Imperial Hospital have each made a diagnosis, but none of them could find anything wrong!"
"Later, a physician named Hu Qingyang came to the palace to personally take the pulse, and he also said that the pulse was normal and did not seem to indicate illness!"
"He pricked several major acupoints on my body with needles, and after removing the needles and examining the needles, he said he knew the cause of my illness!"
"He prescribed me some medicine and told me to rest well while he went to find a cure for my illness!" Zhu Zhen shook his head as he said this, "But after leaving the palace, he was murdered!"
"The person who killed him also seemed to have vanished into thin air!"
"In order to keep my father from knowing about this, I kept the news a secret, left the capital, and came to Jiangnan to relax!"
"After arriving here, my condition worsened. If it weren't for Brother Chen and Miss Shi, I'm afraid I would already be a corpse!"
"Judging from this, Dr. Hu has diagnosed the prince's symptoms!"
"But the person who poisoned him did not want the prince to live in this world, so he killed him!" Shi Jing said.
"Mm." Zhu Zhen nodded.
"I had my suspicions back then, and I sent the Divine Dragon Guard to investigate this matter!"
"In the end, we returned empty-handed!"
"The fact that this person could poison the prince means that they are very likely someone close to the prince!"
"Otherwise, he would have had no chance to come into contact with the prince!"
"I have a suggestion: the prince doesn't need to go to the capital for recuperation right now!"
"To avoid being killed!"
"After all, the person who poisoned the prince wanted him dead!"
“If the prince is safe and sound, he is very likely to take desperate measures and act rashly,” Shi Jingdao said.
"Mm." Zhu Zhen nodded.
"Then I will find a quiet place to recuperate in peace."
"I'll go to the capital after I've fully recovered!" he said.
"Okay." Shi Jing nodded.
Zhu Zhen waved his hand, Gu Yue released his support, and he bowed deeply to Shi Jing.
"Zhu Zhen will always remember the kindness of Miss Shi in saving his life."
"I will thank you properly when I return to the capital."
"I cannot accept such a grand gesture." Shi Jing dodged away.
"If you want to thank someone, thank President Chen!"
"He's the one who told me to save you!"
"Thank you..." Zhu Zhen was about to bow to Chen Tiansheng, but Chen Tiansheng grabbed his arm. "No need for that!"
“Of course,” he said.
"If Brother Chen has time to come to the capital, I will definitely thank you properly." Seeing this, Zhu Zhen had no choice but to let go of his hand and said.
"We definitely need to go to the capital, but not now."
"No need for thanks. The prince can simply show Shi Jing around the palace later," Chen Tiansheng said with a smile.
The innocence of Long Yuan and his associates must be reclaimed.
They were his subordinates, so it was only right that they stood up for him.
The Azure Dragon Legion must not be defiled or erased; they must be brought back to the light of day.
Let everyone in the Dragon Kingdom know about their glorious and unforgettable years.
Besides these, there's also the Shen family.
With such a fierce personality, he would never let himself off the hook.
Moreover, he also wanted to meet this powerful and arrogant political figure.
Therefore, the capital city is a must-visit.
But before we go, we need to resolve the issues in Jiangnan!
"That's no problem."
"When the time comes, I'll accompany Miss Shi wherever she wants to go!" Zhu Zhen said with a slight smile.
"Okay." Chen Tiansheng nodded.
Shi Jing looked at him, her eyes crinkling into crescent moons with laughter, "President Chen understands me best!"
"Then we'll take our leave!"
"See you in the capital another day!" Zhu Zhen said.
"good..."
The pleasure boat docked, and Gu Yue helped Zhu Zhen off the boat. They hailed a car on the road, got in, and drove away.
Afterwards, Shi Jing and Chen Tiansheng went ashore and walked towards the Wanghu Hotel.
"Do you know what kind of poison the prince has been given?" Chen Tiansheng asked on the way.
