Chapter 626

~6 min read 1,033 words

Fu Nian immediately understood what had happened earlier.

He looked at Zhang Liang with a somewhat reproachful gaze.

It was just Young Master Prince Fusu coming to visit; was it necessary to torture himself like this?

Prince Fusu followed behind Fu Nian and walked into the room.

As soon as he entered the room, he smelled a faint scent of medicine.

His gaze immediately fell upon Zhang Liang on the bed.

Seeing Zhang Liang's pale face, a flash of complexity crossed Prince Fusu's eyes.

"Is Zhang Liang feeling any better?"

Prince Fusu asked.

"Thank you for your concern, Young Master; it's the same as always."

A faint smile appeared on Zhang Liang's face.

Even with a pale complexion, it still could not hide his elegant temperament.

"I came here today because I have something to tell you both."

"Didn't Master entrust me to find the whereabouts of the antidote before?"

Prince Fusu struggled for a while, but ultimately chose to speak.

He understood that he could not avoid this.

As soon as he said this, both Fu Nian and Zhang Liang looked at him with hope.

Prince Fusu dared not meet their gazes at all; feeling their eyes on him, he subconsciously looked away.

This action of his immediately made Fu Nian and Zhang Liang's hearts skip a beat.

The two of them subconsciously exchanged a glance.

Both had a bad premonition in their hearts.

"It's a pity."

"The person who gave me the antidote before has already left Xianyang City."

"At present, I still haven't found the whereabouts of that person."

Prince Fusu kept his hands in his sleeves and tightened them involuntarily.

When his hands formed fists, he spoke.

When Fu Nian and Zhang Liang truly heard this answer, expressions of disbelief appeared on both their faces simultaneously.

They had originally thought that since Prince Fusu had gone to see the Emperor, he would definitely be able to obtain the antidote again.

After all, Prince Fusu's antidote back then had been found by Ying Zheng.

They had not expected Prince Fusu to bring back such news.

"Young Master, is it really impossible to find that person's whereabouts?"

Fu Nian asked again, somewhat unwilling to give up.

Perhaps because he had already opened his mouth, Prince Fusu no longer hesitated this time.

"The person who gave the antidote before was extremely mysterious; even the Imperial Father could not demand more."

"When the Imperial Father went to look for that person again this time, he discovered that he had already left Xianyang City."

Zhang Liang, lying on the bed, felt a look of despair appear on his face upon hearing this answer.

Could it be that his life was truly going to end here?

"Although we cannot find the antidote, the Imperial Father has already dispatched all the physicians from the Imperial Academy."

"Master, I believe these physicians will definitely be able to cure the poison in Zhang Liang's body."

"Zhang Liang, you should not worry too much."

"You must believe in the skills of these physicians."

Prince Fusu continued, his tone carrying a hint of comfort.

A bitter smile appeared at the corner of Zhang Liang's mouth.

He lowered his head.

Because he truly did not want Prince Fusu to see the resentment and madness in his eyes.

He had been poisoned while protecting Prince Fusu, so why was Prince Fusu able to be cured successfully?

He really hated it so much.

Zhang Liang had thought he would never harbor such useless emotions.

He believed that as long as one read all the books in the world,

this feeling of resentment and powerlessness would never appear on him.

He had not expected reality to strike so quickly.

With high strength and outstanding talent,

he, who had always been highly regarded, had actually fallen to such a state.

"Young Master, thank you for His Majesty's compassion."

"My Junior Brother just had an eruption, and he needs to rest more now."

Fu Nian said.

He only wanted to get Prince Fusu away from here as soon as possible.

270. Senior Brother, agree to him! (Please subscribe!)

"Then Zhang Liang should get some good rest."

Since the words were already out, Prince Fusu naturally did not want to stay here for long.

After Fu Nian sent Prince Fusu away, he returned to Zhang Liang's room.

Zhang Liang was still in the same state as before, lying on the bed.

"Junior Brother, don't worry; even if Prince Fusu cannot find the antidote here, Senior Brother will not give up."

"I am currently tracking down where Prince Fusu's antidote came from in the first place."

"I believe there will definitely be a lead."

Fu Nian said hurriedly.

Zhang Liang, who had been lying on the bed with his head down, suddenly laughed at this moment.

"Heh... heh..."

A somewhat hoarse and gloomy laughter came from Zhang Liang's mouth.

Upon hearing this laughter, a look of pain appeared on Fu Nian's face.

He felt some regret.

He shouldn't have let Zhang Liang follow Prince Fusu in the first place.

He clearly knew that Prince Fusu would definitely encounter trouble on this trip,

so why did he insist that his Junior Brother follow Prince Fusu?

However, this trace of regret was quickly dispelled.

If Zhang Liang hadn't been following Prince Fusu, Prince Fusu would likely have died at the hands of that group of men in black that night.

If Prince Fusu died, the plan the Confucian school had been plotting for ten years would be completely wasted.

Therefore, they must ensure that Prince Fusu could sit in that position.

"Senior Brother, it's useless."

"This poison of mine is incurable."

"Even Ying Zheng couldn't find the whereabouts of that person when he took action, so how could you possibly find it?"

After Zhang Liang finished laughing, he raised his head and stared into Fu Nian's eyes.

His eyes seemed to hold an eternal, impenetrable darkness.

They knew better than anyone else.

If Ying Zheng couldn't find that person, then they had even less of a chance.

Through everything that had happened during this period, they clearly understood how powerful the forces under Ying Zheng were. ===== CHAPTER 628 =====
