"Nephew greets Imperial Uncle." Zhao Qingyan bowed and said with a smile, "Imperial Uncle's spirit seems to be quite good."

Ren Zong gave a faint smile and said, "I just drank some tonic medicine, so my spirit is still fine. "Come, come and take my pulse and see if the medicine prescribed by the royal physician is useful." Tell the eunuch to get the prescription.

Zhao Qingyan sat on a stool by the side of the bed and said with a smile: "Does Imperial Uncle trust me that much? "What good would it be if I were a quack?"

Ren Zong placed his hand on the couch and joked, "You have been ill for a long time and became a famous doctor. I believe that you are a famous doctor."

Zhao Qingyan said, "Nephew's medical skills are good because you're afraid of embarrassing Teacher." Hold your fingers on your wrist and feel it.

"Young Marquis, the prescription." The eunuch quickly retrieved a stack of paper.

Zhao Qingyan received it and thanked him. Then, he started to read it carefully.

Ren Zong waited for a while, but seeing that he did not say anything, he could not help but ask with a smile, "Don't keep quiet, is your illness serious?"

Zhao Qingyan smiled as he came back to his senses, "You usually don't say anything when you're checking your pulse. This way, you'll be more skilled and easily cheat."

Ren Zong jokingly scolded, "It's getting more and more unorthodox."

Zhao Qingyan took back the prescription and smiled to Ren Zong, "There's no problem with the prescription. Your uncle's body is fine as well. "If you worry too much and are physically tired, rest more and stop thinking about other things."

Ren Zong asked, "No more?"

Zhao Qingyan stole a glance at him and laughed, "Yes, but you can't possibly know what to say right? Royal Uncle thought about it, there are some things that even I, as a nephew, cannot say. I'm alone and I don't have a woman with me. For a person like Royal Uncle who had an obvious blood loss … I don't know the reason for all these symptoms. "

Ren Zong was stunned for a moment before reacting, he then said angrily, "You even dare to joke with your Imperial Uncle, you are really asking for a beating!"

Zhao Qingyan looked aggrieved, "Uncle Huang is being unreasonable. You were the one who asked me." I said there were some things I couldn't say, but I just couldn't say it. The one who got beaten up was me. "

Ren Zong asked, "Tell me the truth, is my body really alright?"

Zhao Qingyan stopped joking around and became serious, "It's not a big problem, but it's definitely not small. If royal uncle still put so much energy into the matter of men and women, his body would surely collapse. "Also..."

"Your Majesty, Imperial Physician Song sent medicine over."

Ren Zong frowned, "I need to drink the medicine again." He waved his hand impatiently. "Let him in."

"This subject Song Xiangran pays his respects to Your Majesty and asks for Your Highness' happiness." A man in his thirties knelt down and greeted him. The young disciple behind him held a bowl of medicine in his hands.

Ren Zong nodded, "Stand up." He then turned to Zhao Qingyan and smiled, "I called the imperial physician beside you back. Do you mind?"

Zhao Qingyan said, "Of course not. His medical skills are one of the top three in the Supreme Hospital. Even if Emperor Uncle does not call him over, I must return him to Emperor Uncle."

Song Chengran stood up, walked to the dragon bed, and knelt down once more. He scooped a few spoonfuls of soup into the porcelain pot next to him and was about to drink it to test the poison.

Zhao Qingyan reached out his hand to stop his movements, smiled and said: "Let me try. I want to have a taste of Uncle Huang's medicine, what kind of medicine could cause Uncle Huang to loathe it so much?" Without waiting for Song Xiangran to express his stance, he took it and slowly drank it. Then, he winked at Ren Zong. "It's not difficult at all."

Ren Zong was not suspicious of his sudden attempt at testing the medicine. Hearing his words, he couldn't help but laugh, "You've never been afraid of hardships since you were young. I can't compare to you." He took the soup from Song Xiangran's hands and gulped it down in one gulp.

Zhao Qingyan took the bowl of water rinsed by the eunuch and handed it to Ren Zong, then said with a smile, "My royal uncle has always been healthy and healthy, so he didn't need to drink any medicine. Naturally, he was afraid of suffering. "Think about it, it's a good thing that Imperial Uncle has always been so afraid of hardships."

Ren Zong nodded his head, "It just so happens that everyone is here. Let's continue with what we just said." "Song Jue, tell me honestly, how is my body?"

Song Xiangran was slightly startled. He couldn't help but glance at Zhao Qingyan. However, he noticed that Zhao Qingyan was not even looking in his direction.

Ren Zong's voice was heavy as he asked, "I am asking you a question."

Song He said, "Your subject... May I know what is the meaning of your Majesty's words? "

Ren Zong said, "Just be honest, why did my body become so weak?"

Song Chiran lowered his eyes and replied, "In reply to His Majesty, it is because of the emptiness of his vital energy and blood. The weakness caused by the excessive exhaustion of his mind, is not too serious."

"Nonsense!" Ren Zong viciously smashed the medicine bowl in front of Song He Ran's knees and bellowed, "How long are you planning on lying to me?"

Song He said, "In reply to Your Majesty's words, this subject does not …"

Ren Zong frowned and was about to hit him with his palm, "Do you want to say something else? Do you all think I'm an idiot? "You …"

"Royal Uncle, please calm your anger." Zhao Qingyan suddenly knelt down and used his body to block the man's hand as he quietly said, "Even if royal uncle suspects them, you still have to trust your nephew a little." My nephew only returned to the capital yesterday, and today he directly went to the palace to pay his respects to my Imperial Uncle. What reason does your nephew have to deceive your royal uncle? "

Song He was blocked by Zhao Qingyan. If he wanted to fight, he could only fight Zhao Qingyan. The Ren Sect naturally could no longer be angry, and could only put down their hands, "Alright, I am only suspicious. All of you can get up."

Zhao Qingyan thanked him and got up. He sat back down and helped pull the thin blanket that had fallen off Ren Zong's knees. He then said with a smile, "Why is Royal Uncle suddenly so angry? It was just a few imperial physicians, how could he dare lie to his royal uncle? Don't these people want to die? "Royal Uncle is overthinking it."

This time, Ren Zong didn't reply with a warm smile like before. He was silent for a long time and looked at Zhao Qingyan with a burning gaze, "Mo'er, I believe in you. Now tell me, are you telling the truth? "

Zhao Qingyan was about to say something when Ren Zong added in a low voice, "I believe you, so as long as you tell Imperial Uncle the truth, no matter what, I won't blame you. On the other hand, this time, I will definitely punish you with the crime of deceiving the monarch. "

Song Xiangran lowered his head, but his expression changed. Even the eunuch beside him had a slight change in expression. The short time that he had been waiting for Zhao Qingyan's answer was extremely long.

He had always loved his nephew like he was his own son. All these years, he had only spoken so harshly to his nephew a few times. Such a "crime of bullying the monarch" had never happened before. A few days ago, many of the court officials had asked to cripple the title of Prince Zhao Qing Yan, but Ren Zong had not moved at all. Anyone with a discerning eye would be able to tell that the ban was more of a form of protection than punishment. In the eyes of many people, Zhao Qingyan was the young prince who was used to being spoilt by the Ren Sect. The more he understood about the people from the Yin sect, the more he understood how fierce he had been this time.

When Zhao Qingyan heard this, she was also stunned. She looked at Ren Zong with a face of shock. There seemed to be a trace of heartache in the eyes of the man in white, but it was quickly suppressed. He continued to stare at Zhao Qingyan quietly, waiting for his reply.

Zhao Qingyan woke up from his daze and once again kneeled down. This time, he answered very seriously, "This nephew has no intention of hiding anything from uncle Huang. I hope uncle Huang can trust this nephew."

Ren Zong stared at him for a while longer, but didn't see any changes on his face. Only then did he let out a long sigh, "Since you have already promised, I am relieved." Seeing that Zhao Qingyan was still kneeling on the ground, he smiled warmly and asked, "Why are you still kneeling?"

Zhao Qingyan was half wronged and half resentful as she said, "Nephew was scared. What if Imperial Uncle is really not happy about punishing me?"

Ren Zong sighed, touching his hair and asked, "Then do I still need to ask for an apology from royal uncle?"

Zhao Qingyan humphed, "Nephew has endured all the humiliation and contributed a great deal to the Puppet Palace. When he returned, he did not receive any rewards, but instead received a round of scolding. Hmph!"

Seeing him rebuke her, the man from Ren Zong did not get angry. Instead, he smiled and asked, "How can you not be angry?"

Zhao Qingyan extended a hand. "Of course I want something good for me."

Ren Zong said in amusement, "More good stuff? What is it that you need from me? "

Zhao Qingyan feigned dissatisfaction, "Nephew is always greedy, is that not okay?"

Ren Zong smiled lovingly, "That's fine, it's not a bad thing to be insatiable. This Emperor has agreed that you can take whatever you want. "

Zhao Qingyan stood up and smiled, "Then I'll thank Imperial Uncle. Your uncle should rest well. Your nephew will take his leave and come back another day to visit you. " The reason why he was' acting coquettishly 'was to make the people of the sect happy. Since he had achieved his goal, it was time for him to withdraw.

Ren Zong said with a smile, "Alright, go back. Don't forget to come often when you're free."

Zhao Qingyan said, "Imperial Uncle doesn't find it annoying, so of course your nephew would like to come more often." He nodded to Song Xiangran and turned to leave.

"Why did the young prince say that?" Song Xiangran followed behind Zhao Qingyan and walked a distance, inquiring. The disciple he brought with him followed them from afar, unable to hear their words.

Zhao Qingyan took a step to indicate for him to walk beside her and asked, "What else?"

Song Xiangran slightly bowed before taking two steps forward to stand beside him. "Looking at my appearance, you probably know that the poison is in that medicine. Otherwise, you wouldn't have tried to test it on my behalf."

Zhao Qingyan sighed and said, "Yes. Even though the prescription doesn't have all the ingredients written in it, I can still see what's missing and how effective it is. Testing your medicine is only secondary, I'm mainly trying to verify my conjecture. "

Song Xiangran pursed his lips, "The young prince is taking too great of a risk."

Zhao Qingyan glanced at him and said, "It has nothing to do with risk. I should understand why you won't say anything. "If you don't say it, it's good for Imperial Uncle as well."

Song Xiangran was silent as he lowered his eyes and walked forward silently.

"Song Xiangran." Seeing that they were about to arrive at the hospital, Zhao Qingyan stopped walking and said lightly, "I don't want to know who entrusted you with this task. I also don't want to know how you all came to an agreement. Go back and tell those imperial physicians, 'If you're afraid that the poison will injure your body and leave the task of testing the medicine entirely to you, then prepare your own affairs. "Don't think that just because you're smart, Royal Uncle is stupid." He let out a breath and said, "I asked you to say this. "Also, bring me another message." Song Chengran is this king's imperial physician, not a victim of your schemes and schemes. "No matter who your master is, don't even think of harming This King's people." After saying this, he walked away without looking back.

Song Xiangran watched him leave with a wry smile.

This young prince was more knowledgeable than anyone, but he knew how to pretend to be ignorant more than anyone else.

However, the young prince, who was adept at feigning ignorance, had suddenly jumped into the muddy water. He did not choose to stay out of the matter and coldly watched from the sidelines.

It seemed like this time … What would happen?

Song Chiran sighed inwardly.

Since the young prince is so protective of me, it's time for me to show some loyalty in return.
