Ms. Doctor Divine Chapter 560 - Shuang

Chapter 560: Shuang

Before he asked Zhao Yiqiu to check him up, he once asked the imperial doctors to do the examination, but the imperial doctors said that he had been poisoned and could not be cured.
According to the way the poison worked, his health would decrease and then all his limbs would start becoming weak.
He thought that the imperial doctors were talking nonsense, so he had them killed, but gradually, he felt himself losing strength, and his hands were shivering as he read the petitions. He even felt that his heart was not feeling that well. So he did not dare to sit up too late to read the petitions and took a break every now and then. However, the situation was getting even worse.
It was a huge issue if the King of a land was not healthy, but he did not dare to reveal the secret to anyone else.
So he asked the Eunuch-in-Chief to find some excellent doctors to check him up, but none of them were able to come up with any treatment, and some claimed that the disease was incurable. So he really believed that he was poisoned.
After the doctors were all taken care of, he sent a letter to Zhao Yiqiu and asked him to pay him a visit in the court.
The King realized that he was truly poisoned judging from the way Zhao Yiqiu reacted, and that it was a difficult kind of poison to be detoxified, just as the first imperial doctor said.
The King’s heart sank, and he showed a lethal air.
Zhao Yiqiu ignored the expression and said calmly, “King, you are poisoned, and it is not an ordinary source.”
“Can you detoxify me?” the King asked as his hands formed a tight fist. He was very much looking forward to hearing the answer he wanted. After all, Zhao Yiqiu was the most excellent doctor in the whole land and if he failed, then the King would have no hope at all.
Zhao Yiqiu showed no expression. Instead, he fell into deep contemplation.
He was able to cure all kinds of diseases, unless they were of a natural cause, but now… He was truly stuck.
Zhao Yiqiu frowned. “I need to think about it.”
The words had just been spoken, when the King clenched his fists.
He threw a look at Zhao Yiqiu and withdrew what he had wanted to say.
What poison was it? Why was this so serious?
He was too young to die now! He had not found the Destiny Monk, otherwise the Phoenix Girl would be of some help! He truly wanted to have Zhao Yiqiu killed, but he could not, he needed his medical help.
The King tried not to be angry inwardly. He tried to look calm in front of Zhao Yiqiu.
He showed a brief smile. “If that is the case, then I will give you some time to think about it. Please stay in the capital, and visit me when you have time.”
Zhao Yiqiu nodded.
The King felt slightly assured.
“Have you been to Shuang’s place? The Weiyang Palace doesn’t allow any outer men to enter, but you are different – you are a doctor and can go and talk with her, if you want,” the King said with a forced smile.
“I already met her.” Zhao Yiqiu answered briefly.
The King clenched the teacup he was holding. He forced a smile. “Oh, yeah?”
Then he said nothing more.
Zhao Yiqiu threw a look at the King subconsciously. If he continued to be like this, the Queen would never get better.
Zhou Sheng had changed. He had dominated the world, but lost his heart. Was it a mistake to have entrusted Shuang to him?
“Yiqiu,” the King said.
“Yes, King?” Zhao Yiqiu asked.
