Chapter 586: To Weiyang Palace
Zhou Huailing was totally confused as if he had no idea what happened. The King did notice this reaction, which was not at all pretentious.
He had been thinking about who drugged him, ever since he got diagnosed for being poisoned.
Well… there were not that many possibilities.
His sons had done it. His sons had all become adults and they were getting ambitious. He was a young father and could still stay on the throne for a few more decades. So he was thinking that one of his sons was doing the trick behind his back, and he had done a lot of observation and investigation, but he just could not figure out who it might be.
However, seeing the way Ling behaved, he was certain that it could not possibly be Ling who did it. As for the rest… they remained to be seen.
Zhou Huailing was confused, but he hesitantly asked his father when he caught the King’s look. “What is it, father?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe King stopped staring at him. He then took a sip of tea and said calmly, “Nothing really, just do as I say. Ling, listen to me, and I will help you when it is time, got it?”
The King patted Zhou Huailing’s shoulders.
Though he did not say it directly, the promise was already made.
Zhou Huailing, who had been holding a grudge, now sealed his mouth.
He got up and greeted him. “I got it, thanks, father!”
The King nodded with satisfaction. He looked at Zhou Huailing who resembled him.
Ling was the one that resembled him most, and the one that he liked from the bottom of his heart. This son of his was living up to his expectation.
He waved his hands, suggesting that he could get back to his work.
Zhou Huailing retreated at the order.
As he turned around, he was wearing a very complicated look on his face. He was not sure whether he should be delighted or what.
The King asked his Eunuch to come over and said, “Ling is going to do what I say, but I need to show some sincerity. Go and get some people to help with the moving.”
The Eunuch hesitated for a moment, but then he nodded and answered with a small yes.
Feeling assured, the King let out a sigh of relief.
He took out the bottle and sniffed at it, then put one pill into his mouth.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter he took the pill, he suddenly felt very fresh. That was a great thing, which unfortunately could only be made by Gu Chaoyan.
The King said as he was in the middle of thinking about something else, “De Fu.”
“Yes.” De Fu was still panting. He had just finished the first task when the King needed him again. De Fu had been very cautious as a servant these days. It seemed that the King needed men all the time and there were a lot of errands to run day and night.
“Ask the Dean of the Saint College as well as the Medical Judge of the imperial hospital to come see me tomorrow. They should not meet me at the same time,” the King said.
“Okay.” De Fu replied.
The King felt totally assured, then he got up…
He was about to go back to Qianqing Palace, when he suddenly felt that he was healthy enough to leave Qianqing Palace today.
“Do you plan to visit the concubines or the Imperial Study?” De Fu asked discreetly.
“To the Queen’s Weiyang Palace,” the King said calmly.
