Three days later.
King Ling Lai's external injuries had recovered. Except for the irreversible injury to the kneecap, there were no other sequelae.
However, the injury to the kneecap alone was enough to change King Ling Lai's life.
"The kneecap is shattered. At least in the next three to five years, His Majesty won't be able to stand up. "
The doctor explained to Xiao Zheng in a low voice, "Maybe the bones will heal slowly after a long time. They can support His Majesty to stand up, but it's impossible for him to walk like a normal person. "
After sending the doctor away, Xiao Zheng's heart was heavy.
But he also knew that with the current medical science, it was impossible for King Ling Lai to recover completely. He could only take one step at a time.
"I've spent some effort on the flowerbed here."
King Ling Lai's soft voice came from behind. But he was no longer standing, but sitting in a wheelchair, he slowly walked to Xiao Zheng.
"Do you like it, Boss Xiao?" King Ling Lai's face was still haggard, and his mental state hadn't recovered yet. However, there was a hint of gentleness in her pitch-black beautiful eyes.
"I like it," Xiao Zheng nodded and said solemnly. "But Your Majesty might not have the chance to take care of it in the future."
"I just can't stand up. I can still use my hands. "King Ling Lai was calm, as if he had accepted the fact that his legs were disabled.
Xiao Zheng said with a little heartache, "Your Majesty, I heard there's a famous orthopedic hospital in the US. Should we go there and try? "
"No need," King Ling Lai touched his knee that was still wrapped in gauze and said with his lips pursed. "My leg, I know it myself."
"It's a pity that you lost a pair of beautiful legs." Xiao Zheng knew his suggestion could only play a consoling role, and it couldn't change the current situation. He decided to make a joke.
"What a pity." King Ling Lai smiled and looked up at Xiao Zheng. "When things are good, Boss Xiao doesn't take a second look. I'm afraid there won't be a chance in the future."
Hearing this, Xiao Zheng suddenly changed the topic. He pursed his lips and asked, "Your Majesty, the matter before …"
Was Her Majesty really pregnant?
Xiao Zheng didn't think so.
She knew that she was about to face a fierce battle of life and death. Did she really dare to get pregnant? If he didn't dare, then what exactly happened that night?
His Majesty Ling Lai sighed and asked, "Boss Xiao, do you think it's possible for me to do it in my current state?"
There was nothing left.
Her legs were crippled. His body had also suffered great injuries. Even if she recovered in the future, would a woman with crippled legs allow him to have children?
Could she still do it?
Xiao Zheng fell silent.
He understood what His Majesty Ling Lai was implying.
Perhaps the previous conversation was just His Majesty testing Xiao Zheng. She wasn't pregnant, and she didn't do anything out of line. At the very least, she didn't force Xiao Zheng to accept it passively.
She was waiting, waiting for a chance to have children.
But now it seemed that she didn't have that chance.
Dinner was at His Majesty's mansion. The dishes were still Hua Xia dishes that Xiao Zheng was used to. Although His Majesty Ling Lai was not feeling well, he couldn't help but have a drink with Xiao Zheng. He pursed his lips and said, "Justin quit. But I won't. Don't worry, Boss Xiao. I will use all my resources to help you stabilize the East Asia market. "
After a short pause, His Majesty Ling Lai smiled and said, "Boss Xiao, I hope you can make a name for yourself in this battle. Don't let my investment go to waste."
These words were said lightly, but they were also His Majesty Ling Lai's heroic words.
If she lost, even if she wasn't implicated, she would suffer a huge loss. But if she won —
She didn't care.
She owed Xiao Zheng a lot. She hoped that Xiao Zheng could win this battle.
Xiao Zheng understood His Majesty Ling Lai's meaning and thanked him, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
"It's my pleasure." His Majesty Ling Lai nodded and smiled. "This time, I really won't be in danger. Next, there will be countless problems waiting for me to deal with in Yoto, including the Royal Family. Boss Xiao — you should go back. "
"I don't want the Zhao family to attack you when you are in Yoto." His Majesty Ling Lai put down his bowl and chopsticks.
Xiao Zheng didn't refuse His Majesty Ling Lai's kindness. He put down his glass and asked curiously, "Your Majesty, are you sure?"
"I'm not even afraid of the Zhao family. Why would I be afraid of a mere Imperial Uncle Miyamoto? "His Majesty Ling Lai raised his eyebrows. "As long as he falls. The Cabinet will no longer have anyone to support. At least in the next ten years, they won't dare to touch a hair of the Royal Family. "
The Royal Family must exist.
The Mikado was the leader of the Royal Family.
As the Mikado, His Majesty Ling Lai had the obligation to lead the Royal Family to a better place. Having a certain amount of initiative was His Majesty Ling Lai's primary goal after he ascended to the throne.
Now, she had survived the Zhao family's revenge. It was time to show her ideals and fulfill her ambitions.
Xiao Zheng knew that without the Zhao family causing trouble, the Cabinet was in the wrong. For His Majesty Ling Lai, the next road would be difficult and full of danger. But with His Majesty's ability, he would definitely reach the other side smoothly.
After three rounds of wine, Xiao Zheng slowly stood up and said, "It's getting late. Your Majesty, rest early. I'll go back first. "
Hearing that, His Majesty Ling Lai showed a hint of reluctance on his face, but it was soon replaced by calmness. She pushed the wheelchair to Xiao Zheng and said, "Boss Xiao, I have something for you."
His Majesty Ling Lai stretched out his hand. There was an exquisite Ninja Dart in his palm. On it, the name of His Majesty Ling Lai was engraved. Rather than a weapon, it was more like a token.
"This —" Xiao Zheng looked at His Majesty Ling Lai in confusion. He didn't quite understand what His Majesty meant.
"This is the first Ninja Dart I have. No matter how dangerous it was, I never used it. "His Majesty Ling Lai handed it to Xiao Zheng and said with a smile. "Just take it as a souvenir."
Souvenir?
This could probably be considered a letter filled with a special meaning, right?
Needless to say, Xiao Zheng himself. In the future, no matter who brought this Ninja Dart to the high and mighty His Majesty Ling Lai, they would be able to get His Majesty's full help.
Xiao Zheng held the Ninja Dart tightly and slightly lowered his eyes. "Thank you, Your Majesty. I will treasure it well."
"It's a long journey. Have a safe journey, Boss Xiao." His Majesty Ling Lai personally sent Xiao Zheng to the door before stopping the wheelchair.
Xiao Zheng, on the other hand, pretended to be relaxed as he waved his hand and slowly left the palace courtyard that was filled with conspiracies and blood.
Along the way, he saw many familiar sceneries.
But he knew that every inch of the beautiful scenery here was watered with blood. It looked beautiful, but it was actually poisonous.
He sincerely hoped that His Majesty Ling Lai could walk on this path better and smoother.
Loneliness?
Loneliness?
Danger everywhere?
From the moment His Majesty chose to walk on this path, everything had been decided.
Just like Xiao Zheng.
When he decided to confront the Zhao family, he had to give up some things. He had to give up.
Your Majesty.
Take care.
