Guan Zhili felt as if he had had a long, long dream.
In the dream, he was walking alone on a road that seemed to have no end. The surroundings were cold and dead, and there was no light. He could not find the direction, so he instinctively walked forward.
After walking like this for a long time, he was very tired, but there was an extremely strong feeling in his heart that made him keep walking forward.
It was only when he felt that he could no longer hold on that a circle of light suddenly appeared in front of him.
Bright, warm yellow aperture.
He subconsciously stepped toward the aperture. The further he walked, the faster his feet moved, and the brightness of the aperture became higher.
There was still a faint sound coming from inside--
"Didn't Imperial Physician Yin already say it's okay? Let's go out and have some fun?"
"No."
"Xingran has prepared little Pastries for us. Let's go over and finish eating before coming back?"
"... No!!"
The voice of the question was somewhat unfamiliar, but the firm refusal was very familiar to him.
It's Jiang Yingcheng.
The two unfamiliar voices tried to persuade them for several more rounds, but they were all rejected by the little guy. Until finally, the little guy suddenly said -
[Third Brother and Eighth Prince are so nagging--]
Then, the murmur of voices suddenly stopped.
Guan Zhili suddenly felt like laughing.
You don't need to think about this situation to know that the little guy must have complained to the "System Bro" from the bottom of his heart, and there happened to be people around him who could hear the little guy's voice.
"Eh?!"
Guan Zhili Before he could fully open his eyes, there was a sound in his ears--
"Wake up, wake up! Zhili brother, he is smiling!!"
The sound in his ears suddenly became noisier than before, and several hurried footsteps followed closely.
Guan Zhili opened his eyes with great effort. As soon as the dazzling sunlight entered his eyes, a few tears burst out of his eyes uncontrollably.
A generous palm firmly covered his eyes. "Little Highness Don't worry."
Someone said warmly in my ear, "You haven't been exposed to sunlight for a long time, and you still need to adapt slowly."
Guan Zhili nodded slightly, the movement was almost negligible, but Imperial Physician Yin, whose palms were still covering the opponent's eyes, still felt it.
He then moved his palm away with relief.
The excited voice of the little guy next to her couldn't stop for a moment. In her confused mind, Guan Zhili couldn't tell which sentence was actually spoken by the other party and which sentence was what she was talking about in her heart, so she simply changed the topic. "What time is it now?"
Jiang Yingcheng gave up all the space to the Uncles of the Imperial Medical Academy. Hearing this, he struggled to find a gap where he could see inside and woke up, and said loudly, "Brother Zhili, you finally woke up. Chengcheng is already ten years old this year!"
[Hehehe~]
Guan Zhili:"..."
Guan Zhili said in a weak voice, "... Don't make trouble."
Judging from the sounds of those few sentences just now, he may not have been in coma for more than ten days.
Jiang Yingcheng laughed happily: [It's so spicy! Zhili brother's brain is not broken yet!!]
Guan Zhili laughed helplessly, but his energy was so low that he didn't even have the strength to reply. After a few breaths, he fell asleep again.
When I woke up again, the people around me had changed again.
There was no shouting, nor did Imperial Physician rush forward immediately. Guan Zhili squinted his eyes and glanced around, and then finally spotted a handsome figure beside the table.
The man heard the movement and slowly turned around. "I'm awake."
Jiang Yanchuan stood up and walked towards the bed, asking as he walked, "How do you feel?"
Guan Zhili was silent for a moment and replied in a hoarse voice, "... it's okay."
He was really fine. Apart from the burning sensation in his stomach because he hadn't eaten for too long, he didn't even feel much pain in the place where he had been injured before.
Guan Zhili has a vague hunch that all this should be attributed to the "Merit Shop" that the little guy once mentioned in his heart.
The feeling of guilt surged up instantly, and before the feeling could develop, Emperor Mingze on the opposite side spoke again in a deep voice.
"Chengcheng was afraid of accidentally crushing you while sleeping, so he went back to rest first."
Guan Zhili was stunned and suddenly came back from his thoughts. "..."
So she left her Imperial Father here to guard her...?
"Changshun has already gone to get you some warm porridge," Jiang Yanchuan walked to Guan Zhili's bed and stood there, stretched out his hand to help him sit up, and then handed him a glass of warm water, "Is there anything else you want?"
Guan Zhili took the cup of Colored Glass handed over by Emperor Mingze. Even though he was extremely thirsty, he still looked at it with a blank expression.
Before he could say anything, Jiang Yanchuan had already seen through his thoughts and spoke first, "Don't think too much."
Those scandalous things in the court should not be related to this child who has just returned to Great Rui.
After a pause, Jiang Yanchuan told Guan Zhili bit by bit what happened next.
That day, after Guan Zhili completely fell into a coma, Prince Xin's Army also completely lost the ability to resist after Jiang Silin was seriously injured, allowing Zhu Qian's people to hold them all captive.
Later, the little guy who had been patrolling in Imperial Harem strolled back leisurely. He just glanced at it and ran into the Chongyun Hall screaming.
All kinds of miraculous elixirs were poured out of "Merit Shop" one after another for free. He didn't even bother to take it out from Purse. He just emptied it in his arms with one hand and stuffed it directly into Guan Zhili's mouth.
The little guy even made a lot of garbled "stop support" words. A group of people didn't understand it, but they didn't pay attention to it. They only surrounded it with a human wall to prevent people who didn't know the inside story from seeing the absurd scene being performed inside.
"Then..." Guan Zhili hesitated for a few seconds before asking, "Then they..."
Jiang Yanchuan knew who the other party was talking about, and when he heard this, he didn't hesitate. "Broken hands and feet, and threw them away to see Imperial Mausoleum."
Guan Zhili was lost for a moment and accepted the result calmly.
On the way back from Beiming to Capital City, everything he saw and heard explained to him the huge difference between Emperor Mingze and King of Beiming.
Emperor Mingze works diligently and loves the people, and never imposes harsh government. Although the living standards of the people vary between rich and poor, they can all live and work in peace and contentment.
For this reason alone, his father shouldn't do such a thing as treason...
He was not questioned immediately, which was beyond his expectation.
Guan Zhili lowered his eyes slightly, not knowing what to say.
Jiang Yanchuan doesn't have much experience in coaxing people - except for little ones.
He looked at Guan Zhili quietly for a while and suddenly said, "Do you want to meet your biological mother?"
Guan Zhili looked stunned for a moment and suddenly raised his head. "Is this okay?!"
"Of course," Jiang Yanchuan said softly, "She is outside now. I will call her in."
