Chapter 814 Not for Me!
He disliked Jiang Shuang in the past… He believed that he liked someone similar to Honored Princess Jing who listened to him and thought about him in every aspect, but Jiang Shuang was different. She was bigger than other girls, and she looked quite strong just like everyone else from her family. She practiced martial arts too!
The King understood that she would never be his type.
He said that she was good-looking just to flatter her, but now the King could not understand himself either.
He felt that he should like Jiang Shuang. Especially now that he saw the way Jiang Shuang looked, he was pretty aware that he had no intention of letting Jiang Shuang leave him.
Right now, he suddenly felt that Jiang Shuang was an extremely beautiful woman.
She was an intimidating person who asked him to do a lot of things, but he felt that it was a good thing – when everyone else obeyed him, only Jiang Shuang would give him suggestions. In the past few months when she was absent from the court, the King felt that the court seemed quite wrong. He gripped the Queen’s hands and looked at Zhao Yiqiu, asking sincerely, “Mr. Zhao, how is the Queen? Can she be cured? How much longer will the treatment take?”
Zhao Yiqiu looked at him. He was not moved by the sincere words spoken by the King.
The King had once hurt her so deeply and now he was trying to get her back, when he understood that she was leaving him. That would not work out at all!
Zhao Yiqiu said calmly, “She is too sick to be cured. All I can do is to reduce the pain she suffers in her last days.”

“Since you are here, I can be frank with you. Be prepared for her funeral so that she can be buried in a glamorous way. It is too bleak here in the town and I don’t want her to leave alone. She used to be the most beloved daughter in the Jiang Family! She should not have ended up like this,” Zhao Yiqiu said calmly, showing no expression.
He was talking in a way as if he had been aware of the whole thing for a long time.
Aunt Nan did not react vividly when she heard his words. The others looked relaxed too. It seemed as if everyone except for him, had been informed about this.
Why so?
Jiang Shuang was leaving? She was going to leave this world? It was impossible?
“Why didn’t the treatment start earlier? Haven’t you always believed that you are the best doctor?” the King asked furiously as he took hold of Zhao Yiqiu’s collar, speaking between teeth clenched.
He was so angry that he had no idea how to vent his anger. So Zhao Yiqiu was the only person he could hold on to!
“It is too late. She spent too long here in the town alone, and now she is too sick to live. She can’t make it through. Even if I am a capable doctor, I am still too late to cure her,” Zhao Yiqiu said as he looked at the King. “You should not blame me, but yourself, Zhou Sheng.”

“Jiang Shuang married you, but you treated her terribly! You are blaming me now when she is seriously ill, but what am I? Why should I be responsible for her?” Zhao Yiqiu said as he looked at Zhou Sheng. The King stiffened.
True… He did not even visit her! It was all his fault.
How could this have happened?
No… It was not him! It was not because of him! He was not in charge of the women in the court!
“It was the Empress Dowager’s fault, not mine!” the King said excitedly.
All of a sudden, he thought of everything that had happened. He blamed the Empress Dowager for not informing him about many things.
