I don't know where the news came from, saying that Ying Zheng was suffering from malaria, and even the imperial physician Xia Wuqie was helpless.

The news spread extremely fast. Although it was suppressed by Ying Zheng with strong means as soon as it came out, many people still heard the news.

At this time, the imperial doctor Xia Wuqie also stood up to refute the rumors, saying that Ying Zheng just had a common cold and cold, and that his face was ugly that day because he was worried about Ying Zheng.

At the court meeting the next day, Ying Zheng also stood up again, and seemed to be much better.

For a while, many officials in the DPRK maintained a dubious attitude towards this rumor, not knowing what was going on with Ying Zheng.

But most people don't know, but it doesn't mean Zhao Gao doesn't know.

As Yingzheng's close minister, every time Yingzheng participated in the court meeting and went back to the palace, he served him personally.

When Ying Zheng participated in the court meeting that day, his face looked very rosy, but just after the court meeting ended, when Ying Zheng returned to the bedroom, his face turned pale in an instant, and he even vomited blood.

"Your Majesty, what's the matter with you?"

Seeing the pool of warm blood on the ground, Zhao Gao hurriedly stepped forward to serve with a worried expression.

However, in the depths of his eyes, there was a hint of joy that was not easy to detect.

"It's okay, Xia Wuqie prescribed too many medicines to invigorate Qi and blood for the widow, some Qi and blood just surged up."

Ying Zheng waved his hands "strongly" and said something, but just as he finished speaking, he suddenly fell down on the bed.

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!"

"Come here, hurry up and send the imperial physician, Your Majesty has fainted!"

……

Seeing Ying Zheng fainted, Zhao Gao quickly called the guards beside him and asked them to find Xia Wuqie.

Not long after, Xia Wuqie led a group of imperial physicians and hurried over with the medicine box in their arms.

"Xia Wuqiu, what kind of medicine did you give His Majesty? Why did His Majesty vomit blood after the court meeting, and still faint now? Are you trying to murder His Majesty?"

As soon as Xia Wuqi came in, Zhao Gao grabbed him fiercely and began to question him.

"Your Majesty, your Majesty has been prescribed the medicine to cleanse the poison and strengthen your body. Your Majesty vomits blood..."

Xia Wuqiu was just halfway through speaking when he was suddenly pulled back by the little imperial doctor behind him.

Seeing this, Xia Wuqie's expression changed instantly, as if he knew he had made a slip of the tongue, no matter how much Zhao Gao pressed him, he refused to reveal a single word.

"Hmph, don't rush to treat His Majesty, if the illness is delayed, you all have to be buried with His Majesty!"

Seeing this scene, Zhao Gao already guessed a little bit in his heart.

Yingzheng's illness is definitely not as simple as the common wind and cold he said, it may have been very serious, and now I am afraid that he deliberately concealed it from the outside world just to appease the ministers.

Soon, after some "rescue" by Xia Wuqie and others, Ying Zheng woke up slowly.

"Your Majesty, it's great that you're fine. You don't know that just now, the servants were almost worried to death!"

After seeing Ying Zheng wake up, Zhao Gao quickly fell on the ground, crying with snot and tears.

"Cough cough... the widow has said it all, the widow is just... infected with a cold, you are... cough cough, what are you doing?"

Ying Zheng glared at Zhao Gao, and he still pretended to be okay until now, but the weakness in his tone couldn't be concealed.

"Yes, Your Majesty, I understand. You can rest and recuperate. I won't bother you for the time being!"

After saying that, Zhao Gao got up and left the palace.

However, after he came out, he did not go back to his mansion, but brought someone directly to the Imperial Medical Office.

"My lord, why are you here?"

Xia Wuqiu and the others had just returned, when they heard the news of Zhao Gao's arrival, they rushed out to greet him.

"Your Majesty is fine, you all step back!"

Zhao Gao said something indifferently, and then signaled the servants around him to retreat.

"My lord, since His Majesty is fine, what are your orders when you come to the Imperial Medical Office?"

Xia Wuqi looked at Zhao Gao innocently and asked.

"Xia Wuqi, let me ask you, how is your Majesty's situation?"

Zhao Gao looked at Xia Wu worriedly and asked.

"Your Majesty, it's just an ordinary cold, just rest for a while!"

"Bold, you Xia Wuqiu, you dare to deceive me. If your majesty is really ordinary, how could you vomit blood and faint?"

"My lord, as an imperial physician, I will naturally not speak in vain. Your majesty is suffering from common cold. If you don't believe me, you can ask your majesty."

Zhao Gao was not too surprised to see Xia Wuqi insisting.

Immediately, he changed into a worried expression.

"Xia Wuqiu, you and I are officials in the same dynasty, so you must know the relationship between me and His Majesty. I, Zhao Gao, have served Your Majesty since I was a child. It can be said that there is no one who knows Your Majesty better than me in the entire Great Qin."

"Your Majesty is clearly dying of a serious illness. He pretended to be fine just to appease the ministers. But it's not an option to keep pretending like this. Sooner or later, it will be revealed."

"Your Majesty has not established a crown prince yet. If he dies at this time, then my Great Qin generals will be without a leader. Your Majesty's sons, in order to fight for the throne, I am afraid that they will use whatever means to fight for the throne. At that time, my Great Qin will be in danger."

Zhao Gao clenched his fist with his right hand and hammered his chest, with a distressed expression on his face, no one could praise this loyal and patriotic CRRC Commander.

Sure enough, Xia Wuqiu seemed to be moved by Zhao Gao's persuasion, and his expression was a little hesitant, as if he was hesitating whether to tell Zhao Gao the truth.

"Xia Wuqiu, you don't have to hide it anymore. If others don't know, don't I know? You tell me directly what your majesty is now, so that I can make preparations in advance to stabilize the Daqin community for your majesty. "

"I didn't expect the magistrate to be so considerate of His Majesty. If that's the case, then I won't hide it from you."

Xia Wuqi clenched his fists, as if he had made up his mind.

"My lord, I will only tell you one thing about this matter, but please don't spread it."

"Okay, tell me, I will definitely keep a secret for His Majesty!"

"Well, in fact, His Majesty did not catch the wind and cold. I think Mr. Fu Ling also knew about the fact that he had taken the elixir before. It's just that the elixir has no effect on resting the body at all, but it is highly poisonous."

"Your Majesty has been taking it for a long time, and the toxicity has already penetrated deep into the internal organs. Although he has stopped taking it now, the toxicity in his body has accumulated a lot. Now, if it erupts, it will directly make His Majesty very ill. Now I am afraid that the gods will not be able to save it." !"
