"Impudent." The emperor emeritus flew into a rage and shouted, "If you can't cure His Majesty, zhen will have your head."
"This subject obeys."
The imperial physicians immediately left the palace and quickly discussed how to treat Wang Yiqiu's weakened body.
While the Emperor was grieving, Wang Yiqiu suddenly said, "Imperial Father, don't make things difficult for Imperial Physician Wang and the others."
Seeing Wang Yiqiu slowly wake up, the emperor emeritus immediately walked to Wang Yiqiu's side and said, "Little Qiu, don't worry. You just need to recuperate. You'll be fine in a few days."
Wang Yiqiu's lips were pale white. He weakly revealed a faint smile and looked at the emperor emeritus, "Imperial Father, this subject son is clear about this subject son's body. This subject son's illness is incurable."
Seeing the former sensible Wang Yiqiu lying on the bed with a pale and weak face, the emperor wished he could take his place.
The emperor emeritus held Wang Yiqiu's hand and comforted him softly, "Little Qiu, don't worry. Even if Imperial Father has to beg the state preceptor, I will save you."
Wang Yiqiu slowly shook his head, "Life and death are predestined. Imperial Father, I want to see Jiujiu."
"Alright."
At this moment, even if Wang Yiqiu wanted to pluck the stars, the emperor emeritus was willing to help him pluck them.
When Jiujiu saw Wang Yiqiu, Wang Yiqiu's previously rosy complexion turned deathly pale.
When he saw Jiujiu, Wang Yiqiu's eyes lit up. He wanted to get up from the bed, but because his limbs were weak, he collapsed on the bed again.
Jiujiu quickly helped Wang Yiqiu up and placed a pillow behind his back, "If you're not feeling well, lie down and rest."
"I just want to see you."
Jiujiu rubbed Wang Yiqiu's head and sighed, "How did you end up like this?"
Wang Yiqiu weakly smiled, "I want to help you fulfill your wish."
"There are many ways to fulfill a wish."
Wang Yiqiu smiled weakly, but his eyes were very bright. "But this is the fastest way."
Jiujiu asked, "Is it worth it?"
"It's worth it. As long as you're happy, everything is worth it."
Even if it cost him his life, it would be worth it.
Moreover, his life was saved by Jiujiu in the first place.
Jiujiu said, "Okay."
Since Wang Yiqiu wanted to do this, she would help Wang Yiqiu.
After Jiujiu left, the Retired Emperor immediately walked up to her. "Jiujiu, how is Little Qiu?"
Jiujiu shook her head solemnly. "Little Qiu's illness is very serious, I'm afraid …"
The Retired Emperor, who had always pinned his hopes on Jiujiu, turned pale when he heard Jiujiu's words. He staggered and if it weren't for Jiujiu's quick reflexes, he would have fallen to the ground.
"Little Qiu is sick. Your Majesty is in charge of the court affairs now. You must take care of yourself."
The Retired Emperor nodded with an ashen face.
In this situation, he must take care of himself.
In case …
In case something happened to Wang Yiqiu, there would be someone to take charge of the overall situation.
The Emperor watched Jiujiu leave with a sorrowful heart.
Wang Yiqiu was sick for two months.
Wang Yiqiu's health was fluctuating. When he was well, he could get out of bed and walk around the window. When he was not well, he would lie on the bed with a weak breath, as if he would die in the next second.
Wang Yiqiu's health was fluctuating. The Emperor and the Fourth Prince felt as if they were on a roller coaster ride.
The Emperor was worried that Wang Yiqiu's health was not good.
The Fourth Prince, on the other hand, was worried that Wang Yiqiu was not dead yet.
The day Wang Yiqiu died would be the day he ascended to the throne.
However, Wang Yiqiu's health was fluctuating. He fainted often and even seemed to be about to die a few times.
However, he would suddenly wake up when he was about to die. Then, his health would get better and better. Then, the cycle would repeat.
It was fine if it happened once or twice.
For two consecutive months, it had been a repeat of the same single. No matter how patient the Fourth Prince was, he was starting to lose his patience.
The Fourth Prince even wanted to rush in and suffocate Wang Yiqiu.
The Fourth Prince cursed fiercely in his heart more than once.
When Wang Yiqiu was alive, he tried to stop him from ascending to the throne. When he was sick, his health would fluctuate. However, he was still trying to stop him from ascending to the throne. Wang Yiqiu was simply his nemesis. He was simply too abominable.
The Fourth Prince was anxious and angry.
The ministers in the imperial court were also very anxious.
At first, they were very willing to wait for Wang Yiqiu to come back.
After all, he was the person chosen by Chu Hai and Jiujiu together. Moreover, when he was on the throne, he did manage things very well.
Now that the Retired Emperor had come out of retirement to stabilize the situation, they were not particularly anxious.
However, the problem was Wang Yiqiu's health, which was fluctuating.
Moreover, Jiujiu asserted that she could not cure Wang Yiqiu.
As the saying went, a country could not be without a ruler for a day.
Given Wang Yiqiu's current condition, it was not certain that he would recover.
Since Wang Yiqiu might not be able to recover, then should they elect a new candidate?
With such thoughts in mind, he naturally had to act accordingly.
The ministers, led by the prime minister, quickly began to submit a memorial, hoping that the Retired Emperor would appoint a new emperor.
The rest of the Retired Emperor's princes were the same. Among them, the Fourth Prince was the most suitable to be the new emperor.
The Retired Emperor had waited for Wang Yiqiu for a long time. Although he was looking forward to it, he was still frightened by Wang Yiqiu's health, which was fluctuating. In the end, he nodded and agreed to the ministers' proposal to appoint a new emperor.
In these few days, when the Retired Emperor expressed his intention to appoint a new emperor, the Fourth Prince was very pleased with himself.
The more arrogant and complacent the Fourth Prince was, the more the Retired Emperor disliked the Fourth Prince.
Just when the Fourth Prince thought that he would definitely become the new emperor, Jiujiu entered the palace again. Then, Wang Yiqiu's body healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.
A few days ago, Wang Yiqiu was still leaning on the bed and did not even have the strength to breathe. These few days, Wang Yiqiu had already started to get out of bed and walk.
In these few days, some people even saw Wang Yiqiu taking a walk in the Imperial Garden.
According to the people who saw Wang Yiqiu, Wang Yiqiu's footsteps were strong and his face was ruddy. He did not look like a person who had just recovered from a serious illness. Instead, he looked like a person who did not have any illness at all.
When the Retired Emperor asked the Retired Emperor to appoint a new emperor, it was because he thought that Wang Yiqiu could not be saved.
But now, not only did Wang Yiqiu come back to life, but he also seemed to be in good spirits. Naturally, the matter of appointing a new emperor was dropped.
The position that was supposed to be in his hands was wasted.
The Fourth Prince could have become the new emperor, but in the end, he did not get anything.
The Fourth Prince was so angry that he smashed all the porcelain in the study.
Not long after the Fourth Prince smashed all the porcelain in the study, he was directly summoned to the palace by the Retired Emperor. After entering the palace, the Fourth Prince was directly imprisoned.
Soon, all the things that the Fourth Prince and the Prime Minister had done before came to light.
Along with them, the Retired Emperor's favorite concubine, Vice Concubine Su, was imprisoned.
