“Tian Chang, why are you looking at me like this?”

“Nothing.”

“By the way, how are Mu Chen and the others? Are they okay?” Xiao Qi Tian suddenly thought of Mu Chen and the others so he asked quickly.

They did not know what to say to him.

“You are the only one who is not well. Can you care about yourself first?” Ning Meng Yao frowned and said angrily.

“I am fine. Oh right, I have to go back.” He said as he helped himself up and staggered to walk.

“What are you trying to do?”

“I want to go back and see my son. He will cry if he doesn’t see me.” Xiao Qi Tian smiled warmly at the thought of his son. Ning Meng Yao had seen that look on Qiao Tian Chang before.

“You do not have to worry about it, His Royal Highness. Little Heir was brought to the palace by the Emperor. He is just in the side hall and is being taken care of by his Nanny. When he’s awake, we will put him by your side.” The servant at the side said hurriedly, fearing that Xiao Qi Tian would accidentally reopen his wound again.

Having heard that, Xiao Qi Tian was stunned as he turned to look at Qiao Tian Chang blankly.

“Tian Chang, did I hear wrongly?”

“No.”

“Bring the child over here.” Xiao Qi Tian ordered.

After the child was brought over, Qiao Tian Chang quickly took a glance at Ning Meng Yao and Yu Feng. Having made eye contact, they quickly found an excuse to leave.

After Qiao Tian Chang left, he went directly to the Imperial Study Room. Upon arriving at the door, he saw Nan Zhuang standing anxiously at the door with both eyes fixed into the room.

“General Qiao, you’re finally here. Please help the Emperor.” Nan Zhuang’s face was immediately filled with excitement as he felt like he had finally seen hope when he saw Qiao Tian Chang.

Qiao Tian Chang looked at Nan Zhuang and his eyebrows furrowed slightly.

“How is he?”

“Very bad.” Nan Zhuang said as he opened the door and allowed Qiao Tian Chang to enter.

Qiao Tian Chang walked in. However, before he could step inside, he could hear murmurs of forbearance.

There was obviously a feeling of unpleasantness from those murmurs, making Qiao Tian Chang rush over urgently.

As soon as he walked in, he saw Xiao Qi Feng on the ground. His whole body was curled up into a ball, his face was pale, the veins on his forehead were obvious, he was sweating profusely, and his hands were grabbing tightly to the clothes at his chest.

“Qi Feng, what happened?” Qiao Tian Chang hurried over to help Xiao Qi Feng while looking at him with worry.

“The medicine is... in... the drawer.” Xiao Qi Feng forced a smile as if he had used all of his strength just to say this.

Qiao Tian Chang hurried over and found two bottles of medicine from the drawer.

“Which one?”

“The red one.” Xiao Qi Feng said uneasily.

Qiao Tian Chang poured out the medicine and put a pill into Xiao Qi Feng’s mouth. Then, he slowly watched his painful expression gradually calm down. Qiao Tian Chang felt very uncomfortable.

So that was how bad his condition was. Did he always suffer like this alone?

“Tian Chang, don’t tell Qi Tian.” Xiao Qi Feng rested for a while and finally recovered some strength.

“Even if I don’t say it, he will find out sooner or later.” Qiao Tian Chang said as he frowned at Xiao Qi Feng.

Xiao Qi Feng smiled and showed that he did not mind at all.

“When the time comes, then we will talk about it. If I could have lived longer, I would not put such a heavy burden on him.” He had always remembered that Qi Tian did not like having high positions, he had always said that this position was too cold, and he did not like it at all.

That was why Xiao Qi Feng took the throne so that his brother could do whatever he liked and live the life he wanted.

It was just that his reign was coming to an end because he was already really helpless now.

Qiao Tian Chang did not like Xiao Qi Feng’s attitude at all.

Where did that glorious Xiao Qi Feng go?

“There will always be a way.”

“There is no way. It’s incurable, even Doctor Hei cannot save me. He gave me some pills, but the pills could only suppress some of the pain when the poison activates. They have no effect at all.” Xiao Qi Feng shook his head with a smile. The smile was so miserable, making the others feel very sad.

Qiao Tian Chang watched Xiao Qi Feng, he did not know how to comfort him. He was clearly a talented and ambitious person. He could have gone higher, but now he had become like this.

“Qi Feng, you will be fine.”

“Tian Chang, let us not deceive ourselves anymore. I know my body condition well. I’m already very happy that you are able to come back this time. Really.”
