"My beloved concubine, tell me, how did you know that someone was plotting to harm my prince? That's very important."

Ji Tian Ning didn't continue to make things difficult for the reverse scale. At this moment, this cold-blooded Emperor had the same feelings as his other fathers. When she came in contact with his clothes and body, she knew that his undergarment was already soaked with sweat. Are you nervous about the death of your son, or is it because of illness?

"It's just a kind of wonderful feeling. I can't explain it clearly, so I know." If you ask me how I know, it will be just like my medical skills.

Faintly, the crystal pendant around Ji Tian Ning's neck began to emit a magical light. Ji Tian Ning paused for a moment before slowly turning her head away. "You will lose him, your beloved son."

"What?"

Huo Ni Lin clenched his fists, and the nerves in his body tightened to the point that silver needles were pricked, causing an intense pain to spread throughout his body.

"Why do you say that? "That is my only beloved son, I will not allow him to lose anything."

Ji Tian Ning looked at Huo Ni Lin with sympathy, "There's a first time, but there's also a second time. You can't stand guard by his side all night long. Moreover, he was weak to begin with. "

She didn't say anything more. She could feel the pain and helplessness of the reverse scale. However, in that instant earlier, she suddenly felt that in the future, that child would leave this cold place together with his mother and would no longer suffer in the human world. Was this happiness or misfortune?

The reverse fire scale reluctantly reached out and took Ji Tian Ning's hand, "Ji Tian Ning, tell me, what will happen?"

"Don't move, you still have some silver needles on you. Relax, relax. "I'm not a deity. I might have sensed some things, but I'm not completely aware of them."

He leaned back in his chair and looked at the dimple in front of him. There was no trace of deceit or pretence in his clear eyes.

"Ji Tian Ning, are we really unable to control my illness?"

"You can only temporarily use acupuncture and medicine to control yourself. But the longer you delay it, the less benefit it will bring you and the greater the risk of surgery."

"Will This Emperor die?" Because of this disease? "

Ji Tian Ning did not reply. So it turned out that even this cold-blooded Emperor had moments of weakness when he was afraid of death. Perhaps Leng Jun was just his mask. As the monarch of a nation, he carried too many things on his back.

"Zhen knows that. None of the imperial physicians dare to speak the truth. But you're different. Zhen knows that you won't lie to me." Tell me, how much longer do I have if I don't get the operation done? If the operation is carried out, can This Emperor's disease be cured? "

Ji Tian Ning laughed, but did not mock him. Instead, he said with a hint of pity and helplessness, "No one can determine your illness, nor can I. Only by opening your head and seeing what's inside can I tell. Now, I can only tell you that if you continue to delay it, it will very likely delay your illness and you will not be able to treat it in the future. "

"I don't have time for surgery, and I can't do it either. I have a lot of things to do." "It may not be long before I leave here and lead my troops to battle."

"Is there anything more important than health and life? "Why, are you unwilling to have surgery, afraid, or suspicious?"

"I know that you won't harm me. I have never trusted a girl so much before, but I trust you. However, you don't know whether I can recover or survive after surgery. As for me, I must save my life to accomplish certain things. "

He did not call himself "I" and this was the first time he called himself "I". This made him feel very relaxed.

"Is it because they are going to battle?"

"Yes, I have never been so worried, because my son, my only son. "Could it be that I can't even protect my own son?"

A deep pain quietly appeared in Huo Ni Lin's eyes. As an emperor, there were some things that he still couldn't achieve. With his current strength, he was still unable to do things that he had wanted to do for a long time.

"Your illness is getting worse. I'm afraid I won't be able to support you in your battle."

Ji Tian Ning's words always hit the nail on the head. The reverse fire scale liked being direct. There was no need to guess, it was clear.

"Perhaps, I should bring you along."

He did not ask if Ji Tian Ning was willing to follow him. What he wanted was a guarantee that he would be able to command the troops into battle at any time in his best condition. And this promise could only be given to him by Ji Tian Ning. If he was forced to, he would bring this beloved concubine along on his journey.

"Come with me. Emperor, you don't seem to have asked for my opinion."

"My beloved concubine, haven't you always wanted to leave the palace? Didn't he always want to escape? You will never have a chance or freedom here. "

Ji Tian Ning fiercely glared at the reverse scale. After a while, she bewitchingly smiled and said, "If I let you go, I won't have a chance either, but I'm willing to try for myself. At least, I don't need to worry.

Two flames began to burn within the Fiery-Scaled Beast's eyes as it stared coldly at Ji Tian Ning. This woman was always capable of provoking its anger at any time.

"Go take a good bath and get some sleep. What you need the most right now is a good rest, so I won't disturb you. I hope you won't disturb me."

He raised his hand and pulled out the silver needles, leaving behind the ones on the reverse scale. "Oh, you can take these silver needles with you, they won't affect your rest at all. You can pull them out after an hour. "You can just have Wude send it over to me. I should go back and apply the medicine."

He deliberately lifted his sleeve to expose the bruises on his arm, then turned around and walked out of the room without saluting.

This little cat was still as fierce as ever. He lowered his head to ponder over Ji Tian Ning's words. Was he really unable to protect his only son?

"Wude, did she do it?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, this servant doesn't dare to speak carelessly. I've only found out that the person who murdered the prince, Qinglei, was once serving in Zhaoyang Palace."

"Zhaoyang Palace, she's so ruthless!"

The only two women in the imperial harem that he was wary of were his mother, the empress dowager, and her, his empress. What he feared was not the two women themselves, but the power of the clan behind them.

The empress was the daughter of the King of Shoulder, whose father was the founder of the kingdom and who held the military power.

The empress dowager came from the same family, and the empress was the empress's niece. Although the empress dowager and his father-in-law stood side by side, they were not born of the same mother, but the same father. The late emperor and the Shoulder King were sworn brothers. As the founder of the Southern Champion Kingdom, the Shoulder King Family had always fought alongside their father and son, holding military power in their hands.

Presently, the Southern Champion had half of the military authority, and holding it in the hands of the Shoulder King was the thing that the Flaming reverse scale feared the most.

"Wu De, please help me to bathe and change."

Huo Ni Lin stood up, feeling abnormally exhausted. Perhaps it was as his beloved concubine had said, that he should take a bath and rest.

Although he was immersed in the hot spring, he could not let his mind rest. Although he knew that the more he thought about it, the more serious his condition would become, but he had no other choice. There was no one to share in the matters of Feng Yuan, the prince's death, and so on. They could only bear the responsibility of their own loneliness.

"What would happen if I let that little kitten come and help me bathe?"

Huo Ni Lin suddenly asked this. He didn't really want Ji Tian Ning to serve him, but that would only embarrass him. That little cat, she was a woman who could do anything.

Wude smiled but didn't answer. He knew that his master didn't need to answer.

"Wu De, my prince, you have to watch carefully."

"This servant obeys the decree, I will definitely do my best."

"I'm very worried that she won't let go of my only prince."

At this moment, Huo Ni Lin felt helpless. He couldn't guarantee his only son's safety. And Ji Tian Ning's prophecy made him feel uneasy.

"Wude, do you think her words will be true?"

"This servant doesn't know. Perhaps His Majesty could have the Empress foretell a few things tomorrow to see if it was accurate."

Huo Ni Lin shook his head and said tiredly, "I think that a prophecy isn't something that can be done anytime. She also said that she isn't a deity. "If all prophecies can come first, then what I want to know the most is whether I can recover from my illness and whether I can fulfill my wish."

"Your Majesty, this servant has already found two people with similar illnesses to His Majesty."

Huo Ni Lin's eyes lit up as he looked deeply at Wu De, "Wu De, you know my heart the best. Are their symptoms the same as mine?"

"This servant has already given those two to the Grand Hospital for them to treat. If they're the same as His Majesty, we can have the Empress treat their injuries and see how the results are."

"Reporting to Your Majesty, Shang Qiuyuan requests an audience."

"He came pretty fast. Let him in."

Shang Qiuyuan slowly walked in. He had originally thought that he would be waiting outside the hot spring, but who would have thought that Huo Ni Lin would call him over when he was bathing in the hot spring. This was an indication of the Emperor's favor.

"This humble subject pays his respect to Your Majesty."

Shang Qiuyuan bowed slightly, his hand holding the imperial report. His gaze swept across the hot spring and he discovered that there was a silk handkerchief wrapped around the reverse scale's head. There seemed to be something underneath the silk cloth. He looked down and also saw the scars on the reverse fire scale. It was a shocking sight.

His expression was indifferent and calm. He silently stood at the side and waited for Huo Ni Lin's orders.

"You can come down and bathe with me, my beloved. The hot springs here are excellent."

He understood that this monarch was expressing his favor and trust towards him. Although there were many ministers in the imperial court, they had never heard of anyone sharing a bath with the emperor. This was a great favor, but he still did not change his expression. He only bowed to express his gratitude.
