Zhao Yong's condition had been made very clear before. Ye Zhen didn't need to explain more to him. She wrote a prescription for him directly. She didn't intend to give him the spiritual spring water. This man was too shrewd, and his illness required long-term medication. If he returned to the Qi Kingdom without her spiritual spring water and medicinal herbs, he would notice the difference, which would be even worse.
"It's less than ten days before the founding ceremony. You can take the medicine first. Three days later, I will give you acupuncture." Ye Zhen handed the prescription to Zhao Yong. She didn't immediately give him acupuncture. She always felt that he was hiding something, and she didn't want to slow down his illness at once.
It all depended on who could tell the truth faster.
Zhao Yong lowered his eyes to look at her fair hand. He had the urge to reach out and hold her hand. He clenched his fingers and took the prescription from her. "Okay."
If he was not ill, or a few years younger, he might have made Lu Yaoyao his woman at all costs. But now, no matter how tempted he was, he couldn't do anything impulsive. She was not only the empress of the Jin Kingdom, but also a heavenly concubine.
"Then I won't send you off." Ye Zhen said with a smile, wanting to send him back.
Zhao Yong still wanted to know if the prescription was effective, so he didn't stay here for long. He looked at Ye Zhen. "I will send someone to find Lu Wushuang."
Ye Zhen nodded with a smile. "If you need help, just ask."
"Thank you, heavenly concubine." Zhao Yong thanked her with a faint smile, turned and walked out of the hall.
Outside the palace, he handed the prescription to Song Honao and asked him to get the medicine.
"Your Majesty, the princess is still investigating Imperial Concubine Lu." Song Honao whispered to Zhao Yong.
Zhao Yong frowned slightly. This daughter was really stubborn. She did what he didn't want her to do. "Where is she?"
"At the temple fair, Marquis Anning is with her." Song Honao said.
"Go and get her back." Zhao Yong said in a low voice. When he got on the carriage, his expression became more serious. "What does Cheng Zheng think of Rong 'er?"
Song Hongao looked at him in confusion. What else could Cheng Zheng treat the First Princess as his niece?
Zhao Yong knew that a blockhead like Song Honao would not be able to tell. He sighed in his heart, "Xiang 'er is already married to your brother. But you, you haven't been engaged for so many years. Are you trying to learn from Cheng Zheng?"
For so many years, Cheng Zheng refused to get married. No one knew what he was thinking. There were many rumors about him in the capital. Some people even said that Cheng Zheng didn't want to get married because he liked men.
"Your Majesty, this subject likes women." Song Honao immediately explained.
Zhao Yong glanced at him. "Which girl do you like?"
"Not yet …" Song Hongao said in a low voice.
"There are many women in this world, and not everyone can compare to Lu Yaoyao." Zhao Yong closed his eyes, seemingly speaking to Song Honao, but also to himself.
Song Honao lowered his eyes and did not speak. It wasn't that he didn't want to get married, but he always felt that there was a shadow in his heart. He wanted to find someone who he felt something for, or at least, someone who was compatible with this shadow. After so long, he still hadn't found one.
He didn't want to be like Zhao Yong, who had many women by his side but no one he truly liked.
If he could get married to the girl he liked, wouldn't it be great to accompany each other until they grew old?
"Lu Yaoyao wants to connect to our port." Zhao Yong said.
Song Honao was stunned. "Connect to our port?" He thought carefully. "Is it the Zhejiang River Hengwan Port? This port is considered remote in Qi Country, and there aren't many ships that stop there. If we can connect to the Yuan Country, there will be many benefits for us. "
"Don't forget, if we agree to Lu Yaoyao, our port will definitely be taken over by the Jin Country or the Yuan Country." Zhao Yong felt that his two sons couldn't even protect Qi Country, so how could they protect a port?
"That might not be the case." Song Honao said in a low voice. "Maybe the Emperor will live to a hundred years old."
Zhao Yong shook his head helplessly. He no longer hoped for a miracle.
This topic didn't continue, because Zhao Yong was leaning against the carriage in deep thought. No matter what Song Honao said, he didn't speak again.
When they arrived at the Office of the Grand Herald, Duanmu Xiu was already waiting for Zhao Yong with the medicine.
"Your Majesty, you forgot to take your medicine again today." Duanmu Xiu looked at Zhao Yong expressionlessly. For the past two years, he had stayed by Zhao Yong's side to treat his illness. Although he didn't cure Zhao Yong's illness, without his medicine, Zhao Yong's headaches would flare up almost every day. When that happened, he would have to find a woman to treat it, which would only worsen his illness.
A dissolute emperor could only give up on women. Just thinking about it made one want to take pleasure in other people's misfortune.
Zhao Yong took the medicine from Duanmu Xiu's hand and drank it in one gulp. "Lu Yaoyao gave us a new prescription. Take a look and see if it's different from your medicine."
"Quick, let me take a look." Duanmu Xiu's eyes lit up. He had long heard of Lu Yaoyao's reputation. She was the first person to discover Zhao Yong's illness. Perhaps her medicine could cure Zhao Yong.
Song Honao handed the prescription in his hand to Duanmu Xiu. "Valley Master Duanmu, the prescription is here."
"Give it to me." Duanmu Xiu took the prescription in his hand and looked at it. The look in his eyes changed from doubt to amazement. "Why didn't I think of using this medicine …"
Ye Zhen's prescription was not much different from Duanmu Xiu's previous prescriptions. She only added a few herbs, but it was these few herbs that made the whole prescription different. Until today, Duanmu Xiu really admired this woman. Sure enough, she really knew medicine. She was not just a rumor.
"Your Majesty, maybe this Heavenly Concubine can really cure your illness." Duanmu Xiu looked at Zhao Yong and said.
Zhao Yong smiled faintly. "She said she can only let me live for two more years."
"It's hard to say when it comes to treating illnesses." Just like when he thought Zhao Yong would not live for more than three years, wasn't he fine now?
"Take the medicine for a few days and try." If there was no effect at all, he would not leave the capital.
Duanmu Xiu took the prescription and retreated. Song Honao went to find Zhao Rao.
At this time, Zhao Rao was not on Temple Street. She still remembered that Lu Wushuang and her palace maid were taken away separately. She knew that she couldn't find Lu Wushuang, but she could always find her palace maid. Following the route where Lu Yaoyao left, she found the Ye family's mansion.
"Are you very concerned about Lu Wushuang's life and death?" Cheng Zheng looked at Zhao Rao in front of him and asked faintly. He thought that she should have no feelings for all the women in the harem.
"Her life and death have nothing to do with me." Zhao Rao said, "I just want to know why my father brought Lu Wushuang here."
Cheng Zheng's eyes flashed with a smile. "You are concerned about the emperor."
Zhao Rao's face was as cold as frost. "No, I don't care about him at all. I only care about the State of Qi."
