Chapter 621: Your Explanation
The reason why Sword One asked Zhao Yiqiu to check on Chaoyan was probably because Chaoyan was physically troubled. When his hidden guards came to him, the message they passed on was that Lady Chaoyan had fallen ill, but when he saw Chaoyan a minute ago and felt her forehead, he could tell that she was not suffering from a cold, and she looked pretty normal in expression too. So what happened, honestly? What was wrong with her body?
He had to ask Zhao Yiqiu about this – they could come up with a method together, if there was really something wrong with her.
He hurried all the way to Zhao Yiqiu.
Zhao Yiqiu was in the study. He was looking through the books, trying to find out something. When he saw Zhou Huaijin, he was slightly surprised.
He had asked Zhou Huaijin to return home, and he thought that he would receive him instantly, but after a long while when Zhao Yiqiu thought that he would not come any more, he still showed up.
“What is it?” Zhao Yiqiu was still calmly. He looked as if nothing had happened.
“What is wrong with Chaoyan?” Zhou Huaijin asked straightforwardly.
Zhao Yiqiu put down his books. Then he stood in front of Zhou Huaijin, showing a serious look on his face. “Huaijin, you have known me since little.”
“You know my rules – I can’t reveal the information of the patients I see. If you have any confusion, you better ask Lady Chaoyan instead.” Having said these words, Zhao Yiqiu continued with his search. He did not look at Zhou Huaijin any more, nor did he notice if he was still there.
Zhou Huaijin walked out of Zhao Yiqiu’s room.
He frowned.
What was happening?
***
The following day, Gu Chaoyan was no longer that distressed. She was still worried about what happened to the refugees, so she decided to take a look at them personally.
Zhou Huaijin, however, was in the court. He had not been in the court for ages, but he was here today for the refugees’ sake.
The King still looked as if he was in a good mood. He found the country was flourishing more and more after the Phoenix Girl’s identity was confirmed. Normally he would be stuck with affairs in winter with all kinds of errands, but now, it seemed that he was no longer that busy and he could still have time to drink tea and read books.
That was something he had not been able to do for a long time, after he became the King. So the King was in a really good mood right now.
He was about to announce the end of the morning session, when Zhou Huaijin stepped out and said, “King, I need to report something.”
The King frowned – what was he up to again?
“What is it?” He sounded impatient.
“It is about the refugees in the capital. They normally received a bowl of porridge and two steamed buns in the previous years, but this year, what they received is none other than some water-like porridge, and they were not even given any steamed buns. The refugees will not survive the winter in this way,” Zhou Huaijin said angrily.
The King showed no expression on his face, looking very profound. He did not answer Zhou Huaijin’s question directly either. Instead, he looked at Zhou Huailing. “Lord Ling, you are in charge of the refugees, you can explain that to him.”
