Chapter 177: Father and Son Have the Same Fate
Zhao Jia stayed in Dengzhou Prison until midnight before leaving, but his conversation with Zhao Tong ended in unhappiness, and after returning to the place where he lived, Zhao Jia almost didn't sleep all night, because he couldn't sleep at all, and when it was dawn the next day, Zhao Jia jumped up from the bed, and then ran to Zhao Xu to visit.
After a night's rest, Zhao Jia thought that Zhao Xu's spirit would be better, but when he saw Zhao Xu, his heart sank again, because he had only been seen for one night, Zhao Xu's face became even more ugly, yesterday it was only white and blue, but now it is white and black, and the whole face shows a dead gray, and suddenly looks like a dead person.
However, although his face was ugly, Zhao Xu's spirit was good, and he immediately showed a bright smile when he saw Zhao Jia coming, but when he saw the scars on Zhao Jia's face, he was stunned at first, and then quickly showed a wry smile and said, "Big brother, are you going to prison?" ”
"Well, you said don't kill him, so I went to help you beat him, although I was also a little injured, I can guarantee that Zhao Tong's injuries are much worse than mine!" Zhao Jia didn't hide it, but pretended to be relaxed.
"Haha~, I played well, I wanted to beat them up for a long time, but unfortunately my body has not been good, and now my eldest brother is finally angry for me!" Zhao Xu also laughed when he heard this, a rebellion was like a joke between brothers in their mouths.
When he was talking, Zhao Hao also came here to check Zhao Xu's body, and after the pulse was over, Zhao Hao specially told Zhao Xu a few words, and then personally took someone down to boil medicine, Zhao Jia also found an opportunity to run out at this time, and then quietly asked Zhao Hao: "Fourth uncle, tell me the truth, how is Brother Xu's body?" ”
Yesterday, Zhao Jia wanted to ask Zhao Hao about Zhao Xu's physical condition, but Zhao Xu was in a hurry to see him at that time. And Zhao Hao said that Zhao Xu's situation was complicated, and he was afraid that he couldn't say it clearly, so he didn't have a chance to say it clearly, but seeing Zhao Xu's appearance today, Zhao Jia was even more worried, so he deliberately ran out to inquire.
Heard Zhao Jia's inquiry. I saw that Zhao Hao, who was decocting the medicine, sighed, then turned his head to look at Zhao Jia and said, "Jia'er, you should have heard your father tell you about the situation before your uncle's death, right?" ”
"Before Uncle died? I only know that the uncle was depressed because of the failure of the change, and as a result, he got seriously ill and died, what does this have to do with Brother Xu? Zhao Jia was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then asked with some puzzlement.
"Yes, your uncle was seriously ill at the beginning, and in order to give your father time to choose a qualified heir to the throne, your uncle asked my teacher Zhilugu. Using a special acupuncture technique to stimulate his remaining vitality, this can prolong the overlap of your uncle, but once the disease occurs again, there is no possibility of treatment! ”
When he said this, he saw Zhao Hao pause for a moment and then said: "Now Your Majesty's situation is almost the same as your uncle's, although some of the poison on his body is discharged, the rest is still seriously damaging His Majesty's body, and I can't do anything about it." And according to the situation at that time, His Majesty was afraid that he would die of poison within a month. But at that time, you and your father did not come, and His Majesty did not feel at ease to leave, so I asked my acupuncture to stimulate his remaining vitality, which has persisted until now, but yesterday the poison attacked again, although it was saved. But His Majesty's body is already extremely weak, and he can ...... at any time It can be ...... at any time Probably ......"
When Zhao Hao said the end, he also choked up all of a sudden, he couldn't say it at all, he was also Zhao Xu's elder. At the beginning, he watched Zhao Ji die with his own eyes, but now he wants to see his eldest brother's son die in front of him, and he is helpless.
Although Zhao Jia had been mentally prepared, when she heard Zhao Hao say that Zhao Xu might lose her life at any time, the whole person stood on the spot all of a sudden, and he couldn't recover for a long time. Seeing Zhao Jia's appearance, Zhao Hao sighed again and patted him on the shoulder and said, "Jia'er, don't be too sad, Your Majesty knows his physical condition better than anyone else, and the main reason why he has held on until now is to wait for you and the third brother to come back, so that he can explain the aftermath and leave with confidence." ”
"Fourth uncle, is there no other way?" Zhao Jia finally came to his senses at this time, and asked Zhao Hao eagerly with tears in his eyes at the moment, even if there was only a glimmer of hope, he wanted to give it a try.
However, what made Zhao Jia desperate was that Zhao Hao shook his head slowly at this time and said: "If there is another way, we will not wait until now, in fact, for Your Majesty, every day you live, you have to bear one more day of pain, maybe it is a good thing for him to be relieved early!" ”
Zhao Hao's last words were like spikes, piercing Zhao Jia's heart fiercely, which also made him unable to control himself again, tears poured out at once, and at the same time, he also felt that he was beaten too lightly yesterday, especially Zhao Jun, who was poisoned, should really break his hands and feet to let him taste the pain too.
After the medicine was decocted, Zhao Jia personally served it to Zhao Xu, and then fed him to take it, and after a while, Zhao Xu's face became less ugly, but this also made Zhao Jia even more sad, because he also knew pharmacology, and knew that the more this was the case, the more it meant that Zhao Xu's body was completely supported by the medicinal power, and the medicinal effect would get worse and worse, until the medicinal effect was completely ineffective, Zhao Xu might not be able to support it anymore.
Originally, Zhao Jia wanted Zhao Xu to take a break after drinking the medicine, but Zhao Xu, who had recovered a little bit of energy, refused to lie down, but instead pulled Zhao Jia to let him talk to him, especially when they talked about the round-the-world voyage yesterday, Zhao Xu hadn't heard enough, after all, for him who had been trapped in the deep palace since he was a child, the outside world was extremely attractive to him.
Seeing Zhao Xu's longing eyes, Zhao Jia couldn't bear to refuse, so he could only continue to tell his experience, Zhao Xu also listened with relish, and then when he was tired, he lay down and continued to listen, without the slightest intention of sleeping.
When it was noon, Zhao Jia stayed to accompany Zhao Xu to lunch, but Zhao Xu could only eat some liquid food now because of the poisoning of his stomach and intestines, and the amount was not too much, so he could only drink a small bowl the size of a fist, otherwise his stomach couldn't stand it at all, which was the main reason why Zhao Xu was so thin.
Looking at Zhao Xu, who was struggling to eat, Zhao Jia also felt sour in his heart, but he couldn't hold back his tears, so as not to make the atmosphere too sad, and when lunch was over, Zhao Xu asked everyone else to retreat, and then suddenly said seriously: "Big brother, you must know my physical condition, so something must be determined!"
