Chapter 247 - Meet King Roscolin III Again
“Don’t jinx it! Everything will be fine, won’t it?”
Mike said.
Lansi smiled as she held Mike’s hand tightly.
In fact, in her heart, she was suppressing countless emotions, not allowing them to burst out.
As they walked, the two of them finally arrived in front of the palace.
The guard in front of the palace was well-dressed and held a long-handled axe in front of them.
“Who are you? Do you dare to break into the Lieluo Palace? Aren’t you afraid of losing your heads?”
The guard said.
Lansi stood in front of Mike and said righteously.
“Open your eyes and look clearly. I am the Ninth Princess of the Lieluo Empire!”
Lansi said as she took out the letter that had been sent from the palace.
The guard saw the seal of the Lieluo Empire on the letter and immediately knelt down.
“I was blind to have offended the Ninth Princess. Please forgive me, Princess. Please, follow me into the palace!”
Lansi nodded and prepared to walk into the palace.
As Mike was about to enter, the guard stopped him again and said sternly, “Who are you? How dare you want to follow the Ninth Princess into the palace?”
Hearing this, Mike felt both angry and amused.
Before he could respond, Lansi scolded the guard angrily.
“You stupid slave!
“Can’t you see that he came with me?
“He is the prince consort of the Lieluo Empire!”
Hearing Lansi’s reply, the guard could not hold his huge axe steadily and immediately fell to the ground.
“I deserve to die! I deserve to die!”
The guard slapped himself several times.
Mike waved his hand and the guard stopped.
After the farce ended, Mike and Lansi finally entered the palace successfully.
Along the way, Mike asked Lansi jokingly.
“Tell me, as the Ninth Princess of the Tang Empire, how come you don’t have anyone to come and receive you?”
Lansi also sighed.
“I’m afraid that my father has long forgotten about me.”
Following the guard’s lead, Mike and Lansi finally met the chief administrator of the royal palace, Sunders.
Sunders immediately knelt down when he saw Lansi.
“Ninth Princess! You’re finally back!”
Lansi quickly helped the teary-eyed Sunders to get up.
Sunders spoke as he wiped away his tears.
“Ninth Princess, it’s been a long time. You’ve grown into a big girl now!
“I still remember when you were young. You used to come here to play with me because you were lonely. But now, you’re so big. Time really flies!”
Sunders glanced at Mike as he spoke.
“Ninth Princess, who is this?”
Lansi looked at Sunders as she held Mike’s hand.
“This is my husband, Mike!”
Mike reached out his hand and said to Saunders.
“Hello, Chief!”
Sunders quickly reached out his hand and said to Mike.
“Hello, prince consort! Hello, prince consort!”
“Look at this face, it’s so handsome! And this forehead! Oh my god, it’s almost as high as the wall outside the palace!”
Seeing that Sunders had made a slip of the tongue, Lansi purposefully coughed.
Sunders immediately understood what Lansi meant and quickly stopped speaking.
Then he said.
“Ninth Princess and Prince Consort, please follow me! The king has been waiting for you for a long time!”
Sunders led Mike and Lansi through the long and wide corridor of the palace.
They walked through a garden and came to a quiet building.
“It looks like this is where King Roscolin III resides!”
Mike thought.
At this moment, Sunders pushed open the closed door and knelt on the ground.
“Your Majesty, the Ninth Princess and the Prince Consort are here!”
A soft and weak voice came from the room.
“Come in!”
After hearing the voice’s response, Sunders left the room and signaled Mike and Lansi to go in.
The door was then closed.
The two slowly walked through the hallway and entered the room.
The room was very large, with countless antiques, magic weapons, poetry, and paintings placed in the room.
The most eye-catching thing in the room was a large bed.
The curtain of the bed was half-covered.
Lying on the bed was a frail old man.
“Looks like this is King Roscolin III!”
Mike thought to himself.
The two of them walked forward. Lansi saw her father, who was in a very frail condition.
Even if she had a thousand kinds of resentment towards him, all of it vanished at this moment.
Lansi half-knelt by the bed, crying as she held King Roscolin III’s hand tightly.
“Lansi… is it really you?”
King Roscolin III said weakly.
“It’s me, father, it’s me!”
Lansi choked.
“You… still came to see me… your disappointing brothers… only now… will they come to see me.”
King Roscolin III looked at Mike and said to Lansi.
“Who… is he?”
Lansi replied while crying.
“He is my husband. His name is Mike!”
Mike also walked up and greeted his father-in-law.
King Roscollin III looked at Mike and asked.
“Do you… love Lansi?”
“I love her, I will treat her well for the rest of my life! Please rest assured!”
Mike said firmly.
“Oh! Really… that’s… that’s good… Cough cough.”
As he said that, a mouthful of blood was spat out from his mouth.
“Father, please rest and stop talking.”
Lansi said.
At this moment, Mike silently said to the system notification in his heart.
“System notification, do you have a method to cure King Roscolin III?”
System notification: Yes, his illness has been caused by long-term consumption of drugs that contain chronic toxins. We have detected that there are medicinal herbs in the medicine hall of the palace that can be used to refine antidote pills. You can refine them at the Medicine Hall!
Seeing this, Mike opened his mouth and said to King Roscolin III.
“Your Majesty, I have a way to treat your illness!”
Hearing this, King Roscollin III’s face showed a look of disbelief.
When Lansi heard Mike’s words, she looked extremely happy.
King Roscollin III said with difficulty.
“Even the… doctors in my palace… are unable to save me… You’re a young boy… How… How are you able to do it?”
Lansi explained to King Roscollin III.
“Father, please believe in my husband! He might really have a way to save you!”
King Roscollin III nodded weakly after hearing Lansi’s reassuring words.
“What… What do you need me to do?”
Mike smiled confidently and said.
“I need some herbs from the medicine hall in the palace. Give me a few hours and I will definitely refine a pill that can save your life!”
