Chapter 337 The Prince of Tianzhu, who will die soon
Chapter 337 The dying prince of Tianzhu
The ministers were naturally talking about this strange rain.
Since the domineering display of Su Chen, the Protector of the Country, not long ago was still deeply imprinted in their hearts, everyone naturally made assumptions about Su Chen.
Could this also be the work of the Protector?!
I don’t think there’s anything wrong with this idea, I just think it’s natural!
The Lord Protector can even tame thunder and lightning, but how can he dare to act recklessly during a heavy rainstorm?
As a result, due to a combination of circumstances, Su Chen's prestige in the hearts of the ministers deepened a lot again. Even hot-tempered princes like Cheng Yaojin and Qin Shubao were in awe of Su Chen.
"Where is the Protector?"
A minister wanted to propose a toast to Su Chen, but he was nowhere to be seen.
After discovering this anomaly, a small disturbance was quickly caused in the hall.
After their search, they found no trace of Su Chen, and even His Majesty Li Er didn't know where he was.
After some inquiries and heated discussions, they found out that His Majesty and the Lord Protector had important matters to deal with, so they were absent from the banquet.
Many people feel lonely about this.
…
Royal study room.
His Majesty Li Er was sitting on the throne, frowning, and asked suspiciously, "Tell me, why is this good person suddenly dying?"
Not long ago, when he and Su Chen returned to Tai Chi Palace, they received news from Honglu Temple, saying that Prince Tianzhu was dying.
At that time, when Su Chen heard the news, he couldn't sit still.
In his prediction, Prince Tianzhu would not belch in a few months. Why was it suddenly so far ahead of schedule?
In order to clarify this question, and also to teach Li Er a good lesson, Su Chen immediately decided to delay attending the banquet and asked people to consult all the imperial doctors.
"I'm not a god, how can I know everything?"
Su Chen shook his head with a smile, and continued: "But if I guess correctly, if this Tianzhu monkey really dies, it will definitely have something to do with the so-called elixir."
Upon hearing this, His Majesty Li Er was stunned.
If it was true as Su Chen said, then he had really passed by Prince of Hell for a while.
Before, he was still a little sad about Su Chen destroying the elixir.
But now that he heard that Prince Tianzhu was about to pass away, he no longer felt any pity at all.
If he takes the elixir, wouldn't he be the one who is about to return to the West?!
Suddenly, there was a rush of footsteps outside the house, which pulled His Majesty Li Er out of his thoughts.
"Your Majesty, Prince Tianzhu has been brought here!"
Soon, the people from Honglu Temple carried the angry Prince Tianzhu inside.
His Majesty Li Er and Su Chen looked up and were immediately startled by the Prince of Tianzhu in front of them.
I saw that the originally lively Prince of Tianzhu was lying on the shelf, his face was sallow, his body was as thin as a mummy, his eye sockets were deeply sunken, and his eyelids seemed to be closed forever in the next second. Occasionally, I saw his dim expression.
The dull eyes seemed to be telling some kind of pain.
His Majesty Li Er couldn't help but swallowed subconsciously.
Is this... is this really a living person?
This is a skeleton!
"What is going on?" His Majesty Li Er asked.
The minister of Honglu Temple had a bitter look on his lips, cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, Prince Tianzhu has been feeling unwell for some unknown reason since yesterday. In just one day, he suddenly became like this. As for why, we don't know."
"Since this period of time, we have served the people of Tianzhu with delicious food and drink without any slightest care. Even other people from Tianzhu have gained a lot of weight, but this prince of Tianzhu is the only one who is losing weight day by day."
Hearing this, His Majesty Li Er frowned deeply.
I'm afraid this really has something to do with the elixir, otherwise a good living person wouldn't know how to turn into such a ghost.
If it weren't for the bastard Su Chen...
His Majesty Li Er glanced at Su Chen subconsciously, and happened to bump into him.
His Majesty Li Er immediately felt a little embarrassed and hurriedly said: "Have you asked someone to check on his condition?"
"Not yet."
The Minister of Honglu Temple continued: "When we discovered that something was wrong with Prince Tianzhu, we immediately reported it to His Majesty, before we had time to find a doctor for diagnosis."
"Well, I understand, please step back first." His Majesty Li Er said.
The Minister of Honglu Temple hesitated for a moment and asked, "Your Majesty, what should we do with the other Tianzhu people? Do they still need to be locked up?"
His Majesty Li Er thought for a while and asked Su Chen: "Are those people still useful?"
Su Chen said casually: "Never."
His Majesty Li Er nodded and ordered: "Kill them all."
Hearing this, the minister of Honglu Temple was stunned for a moment, and then quickly replied: "Yes, I obey the order."
After saying that, the minister of Honglu Temple left the imperial study room with his men.
Seeing that there was no one around, His Majesty Li Er pointed at Prince Tianzhu and asked Su Chen: "Is this really caused by taking the elixir?"
"Don't worry, you will know after the imperial doctors take a look at it later." Su Chen replied calmly.
"Um."
His Majesty Li Er could not say anything more, so he could only wait quietly for the arrival of the imperial doctor.
After coming here for a while, seven imperial doctors, including Imperial Physician Liu, hurried over.
"Your Majesty, I wonder why you are calling me here at this time?" Doctor Liu saluted and asked.
"It's not a big deal, I just want you to diagnose this person's illness." His Majesty Li Er pointed at the Tianzhu Prince on the ground and said.
All the imperial doctors looked in the direction of His Majesty Li Er's finger, and then they noticed that there was a living dead person in the imperial study room who was about to die.
Seeing the condition of Prince Tianzhu, even these experienced doctors were really shocked.
Then, they followed His Majesty Li Er's order to carefully observe the situation of Prince Tianzhu.
For a while, Doctor Liu became more and more confused as he looked, and his white eyebrows were almost bunched up.
After coming here for a long time, His Majesty Li Er asked: "What can you see?"
"Reporting to your majesty, according to the observation of the veteran, this person is already dead, and there is no way to save him. As for his illness..."
Doctor Liu hesitated for a moment and then said: "Your Majesty, please atone for your sins. I am not good at studying and have never discovered the cause of the disease!"
"what about you?"
His Majesty Li Er asked other hospitals, and all he received were unanimous responses of shaking their heads.
Although the imperial doctors didn't see the reason, Su Chen already knew it in his heart.
If he guessed correctly, the reason why Prince Tianzhu fell ill so early was probably because he was addicted to alcohol and sex, which caused physical emptiness and decreased immunity.
