After The Disabled God Of War Became My Concubine [BL]

(Chapter 58)

The only two people left in the bedroom were Jiang Suizhou and the old man.

"Please speak, doctor," Jiang Suizhou prompted the moment the door of the room was closed.

The old doctor knelt in front of his bed and said, "If I am not mistaken, Your Highness's current illness is caused by poisoning."

Jiang Suizhou fell silent for a moment, nodded and said, "Doctor, you have excellent medical skills. I was indeed poisoned some days ago. I just don't know if you have a cure for it."

The doctor pondered for a long time and said, "Although Your Highness is poisoned, the poison is very strange. It's floating on the surface and messing with Your Highness's pulse, but not hurting your body. During this period, you only need to recuperate and wait for the effects of the medicine to subside. Just..."

He paused and raised his head to look at Jiang Suizhou.

"Your Highness has been weak since childhood, right?" he asked.

Jiang Suizhou nodded: "Indeed."

The old doctor frowned and said thoughtfully, "Although Your Highness's weakness is seemingly congenital, honestly... it's a bit like it's caused by drugs."

Jiang Suizhou was stunned.

"You mean...?"

The old doctor nodded.

"For the specifics, I still need to prepare some medicine for Your Highness. After taking the medicine, only then can we know where the crux of Your Highness' physical weakness lies," he said.

Jiang Suizhou was rendered momentarily speechless.

He really did not expect that the original owner's so-called congenital weakness was also tampered with. But on further consideration, the mother of the original owner was favored by the previous Emperor at that time, and her beauty was unparalleled. It was only right to assume that a tall tree attracted the wind1 and incurred the jealousy of others.

So, since it was not congenital, was there a cure for his weakness?

Jiang Suizhou didn't want to be this weak for the rest of his life, coughing after taking only two steps.

He was surprised for a moment, and only after a while did he find his voice and ask, "If you say so, Doctor, is there a cure for my illness?"

The old man shook his head and replied, "I am only thirty percent sure."

This was promising for Jiang Suizhou.

He wasn't at all affronted, and so he said, "Thirty percent is fine. From today onward, you can stay in Jingwang Manor with peace of mind and just treat my illness. If there is anything you need, just ask."

The old man bowed and thanked him for his favor.

Then he heard Jiang Suizhou pause and asked, "Do you have any other specialties?"

The old man was stunned and asked, "What is Your Highness asking about...?"

Jiang Suizhou cleared his throat; his expression indifferent; and his tone calm and waveless.

"There is a cripple in my room, as you have seen," he said indifferently.

The old doctor lowered his head in response.

Jiang Suizhou frowned, and then said: "This man is just crippled. Every cloudy and rainy day these days, his legs will hurt. It's really annoying to hear him toss and turn in the middle of the night. Doctor, please examine his legs. If you can find a way to relieve him some, it'll save him from disturbing my rest."
