Chapter 167: The Elder Was the Former Richest Man of Chen St

ch a hideous face right now, she was drawn in by Nangong Ye's gaze – eyes as deep and scorching as the ocean depths, captivating all her attention and making her forget about his current appearance.Se...Zhou Yu's eyes now held no trace of the irritation and disdain he had for Qingxuan just moments ago!

He lived to this age, and his adopted son has become successful, serving as the prime minister of the current dynasty. His daughter-in-law is also kind and filial.

He should have been enjoying his golden years, but he unexpectedly fell ill. No matter how much he ate, he only grew thinner and his mood soured. He became irritable with everyone.

Qingxuan didn't answer Zhou Yu Kun's question, she continued to ask.

"Elderly person, do you always feel a dull ache in your abdomen every night"

When Zhou Yu heard Qing Xuan's words, he became even more excited.

Zhou Yu Kun: “Your Highness, you are right! Every night, this old man feels a nagging pain in his abdomen. Although it's not excruciating and unbearable, it is quite bothersome! I haven't had a good night's sleep in days.”

Qingxuan: "En, that's all then."

To rid himself of the pain tormenting him this morning, Zhou Yu Kun immediately apologized to Qingxuan.

Zhou Yu Kun: "Your Highness, I was blind and failed to recognize that you are a descendant of the renowned travelling physician. Your medical skills are extraordinary, hidden so well that I had offended you. I apologize to Your Highness, hoping you would be merciful to an old man like me with failing eyesight, and not hold my ignorance against me."

Zhou Yu then cupped his hands in salute and bowed to Qing Xuan.

As the crowd witnessed Zhou Yukun proactively apologizing to Qingxuan, some recognized his identity and were astonished, drawing a sharp breath.

Who is Zhou Yu Kun

Chen Guo was the former richest person!

Zhou Yu, having no son under his knee, adopted a son.

Later, when his adopted son became a high-ranking official in the government, Zhou Yu's interest in business waned as he grew older and focused on retirement. This allowed other merchants to seize opportunities and become the wealthiest people in Chen State.

And in recent years, Zhou Yu Kun has rarely appeared in public. Due to the fact that he suffers from Jiaoqiang syndrome, his whole body has become thin as a skeleton.

To the point that when Zhou Yu Kun appeared, most people failed to recognize this former richest man from the Chen Kingdom.

When they saw Zhou Yu Kun bowing to a young and powerless princess, those people already had an idea of what was going on.

It seems that the Crown Princess really is skilled in medicine!

"Seeing Qingxuan remained silent, Zhou Yu continued, 'Your Highness, if you can cure my illness, I will be eternally grateful.'"

Zhou Yu Kun was the former richest man in Chen Guo. He had seen countless storms and tides, but when it came to his own illness, all those strategies he used in the business world – staying calm under pressure, negotiating shrewdly – proved useless.

Now that he's seeking medical treatment and asking Qing Xuan to save him, he naturally needs to put on the appearance of being sick.

Just as Zhou Yu was worried that Qingxuan wouldn't treat his illness because he had looked down on her earlier, Qingxuan finally spoke up.

Qingxuan: "The old man's condition is serious. As I said before, your illness isn't a big problem. I have three pills here. You take one each day, and in three days, the medicine will cure you."

Jian Qingxuan took out a porcelain bottle from her sleeve, and Zhou Yu Kun's face was full of disbelief.

Zhou Yu Kun: "Your Highness, what did you say You...you said my illness, eat three pills, after three days it will be cured"

Although Qingxuan had indeed been diagnosed with his illness, the fact that he could be cured by taking three pills over three days made Zhou Yu feel dubious again.

"Your Highness, while the Hundred Blessings Hall only recently diagnosed my illness a month ago, it has been tormenting me for nearly half a year. And this Jiao Wall Syndrome is considered incurable. Do you truly believe you can cure my ailment within three days"

Zuo Shangyu looked at Kun with excitement mixed with suspicion, while Qing Xuan remained very calm.

Qingxuan nodded. “If the elder trusts my words and is willing to take the medicine I give you, your illness will be cured in three days. If the elder does not wish to believe me, then this illness can only be treated by other doctors.”

Zhou Yu Kun, hearing this, hurriedly said, "Your Majesty the Crown Princess, I believe you! My illness was diagnosed by the Hundred Benevolence Hall after a month of examination. However, they told me that this illness cannot be cured and can only be treated with recuperation."

In other words, this is a way of letting him die slowly!

Now that the Crown Princess says she can cure his illness, don't say it will be cured in three days, even if it takes thirty days, as long as she allows him to recuperate and enjoy a long life, he would naturally be eternally grateful to the Crown Princess!heng twitched the corner of his mouth when he heard this.He naturally knew that the "he" mentioned by Nangong Ye referred to the Emperor.——Meanwhile, in the imperial study, the Emperor suddenly sneeze...
