The Crown Prince That Sells Medicine Chapter 459

Episode 459 Causes of crooked posture (1)

It is not unusual.

This was a thought that suddenly occurred to Rakiel as she saw the emperor reunited after a long time.

‘Is this a bit… weird? ‘No, it’s suspicious?’

Rachiel bowed her head and only glanced up. Then, the emperor’s appearance was clearly visible beyond the ends of his double eyelids, which were pushed up with great effort.

The first thing I saw was my feet. But there doesn’t seem to be anything wrong with it, so I’ll pass. Rachiel’s gaze gradually rose.

Through the foot and into the calf.

After the calf, the knee.

The next thing I saw was the emperor’s chair.

Originally, he was an emperor who favored a stately and stylish throne. But not now. The old seat of power could not be found.

Instead, there was only a stool that looked like something you would find in an old-style furniture store.

Luxurious backrest or armrests? Of course I couldn’t find it. The emperor was sitting in a crooked posture on a stool that seemed only suitable for sitting briefly.

‘But why…is only your left buttocks hanging on the stool?’

My right buttock was literally floating in the air. It was a posture that seemed so unnatural and uncomfortable.

If you do that, not only your pelvis, but also your lower back, spine, shoulders, and neck will all be distorted. Could it be that the emperor developed a strange habit of sitting strangely in the few months that we had not been able to see each other?

‘…It seems like his expression doesn’t look comfortable.’

Even if you just look at it, it looks like that.

A somewhat sullen and uncomfortable expression. a look. Breath. Even the air around you. It was as if he was suffering from the worst constipation of his life.

So I was worried. Maybe that was why. He secretly activated acupuncture point scanning without the emperor noticing.

‘Maybe some strange disease developed in the meantime. Acupoint scanning.’

Ding dong!

[Acupuncture point scanning is activated.]

[Multiple targets with hemoglobin-based blood have been detected within the scanning range (radius of 150m).]

[All targets with hemoglobin within the range are automatically scanned.]

Tsussssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss automatically. .!

My perspective has changed. The emperor’s appearance was captured against a background that had turned completely black. The movement of blood and mana flowing through the emperor’s body was clearly visible. The same was true for the harmony and response of the five organs and six parts interacting with the circulating energy of mana.

‘If the emperor gets a serious illness… no. I’m in trouble.’

Even so, he reflected a lot on his way back from Rakiende.

I’ve lived so hard all this time. Thanks to this, if things continue like this, he will be able to inherit the emperor’s position without being able to get rid of him or get rid of him. I can’t do this. You may end up far from your dream of living as an unemployed person with the greatest gold spoon on the planet, enjoying nothing but the power and wealth of the royal family.

So, I decided that from now on, I would try to lose some points by doing something somewhat naughty. On the other hand, I thought I should push the second prince a little harder(?).

But what if the emperor falls ill at this timing?

It gets difficult.

no.

It becomes dangerous.

My illness is so severe that I am unable to take care of state affairs, so from today onwards, the crown prince can either inherit the throne, represent the throne, swallow the throne, or beat the drums on the throne. In any case, the throne is yours.

A situation may arise.

“….”

That’s not allowed.

Rachiel was determined to take care of all the minor illnesses of the emperor and have him listed in the Guinness Book of World Records for disease-free longevity.

I strained my eyes. He examined the emperor’s condition much more thoroughly than usual.

But there isn’t.

‘what? ‘I can’t really see any pain?’

Cardiovascular system? It was brisk.

Respiratory system? I was very energetic.

fire extinguisher? It was hearty.

The urinary system was fine and there were no signs of hair loss.

Even if he was thrown into the toughest early soccer club in Korea right now, he had the stamina and health to easily play the role of not only the team’s ace, but also the role of a pork belly slimming black hole at a company dinner.

That made me even more curious.

‘Why? There doesn’t seem to be anything wrong with your health, so why are you sitting uncomfortably like that?’

So, maybe a spinal disc or something has ruptured? Should I bring Tusik in right away and take an x-ray?

It was a time when I was thinking about it.

Rachiel’s thoughts and worries were cut short by the emperor’s heavy voice that came at that moment.

“Are you squinting at me even when you see me for the first time in a long time?”

“…ah.”

“Aren’t you happy with Jim?”

“Nice to meet you.”

I answered quickly.

The emperor, who was still sitting crookedly, smiled strangely.

“Tsk. “It’s truly noble.”

“….”

As soon as we see each other again, are we going to start a fight?

As expected, this guy never changes.

But it wasn’t.

“How is it that you don’t even shed a single tear of joy as soon as you see Jim’s father?”

“…yes?”

“You mean you’re not that happy about it yet?”

“Oh, that’s…”

“Tsk tsk tsk!”

“….”

Is that why you were disappointed? I’m sure you didn’t get upset(?) for that reason, right?

For some reason, I had an ominous feeling.

But did someone say that?

An ominous premonition is not just a feeling. It’s big data that you’ve invested your entire life into accumulating. It is a warning that big data sends with a cheap feeling.

Is that really why?

The ominous premonition turned out to be exactly right.

“I’m sad. It’s really sad. “The eldest son, who is the only one in the world, still looks stiff and awkward when he sees his father, who must have been anxiously awaiting news of his son.”

“….”

“Even though you came to see your father for the first time in a few months and returned from such a long trip, you didn’t bring even the most common souvenir gift?”

“Uh, that’s…”

“Excuse?”

“No.”

“if?”

“I have a gift for you.”

He said quickly. If you want to relieve that difficult man from sulking, you must not hesitate. There also happened to be a special gift prepared for the emperor.

If you leave it out, it’s a loss. Rakiel gathered his thoughts and quickly opened his mouth.

“I have caught Javilon.”

“Jabilon?”

“Yes, that’s right.”

“Jabilone Flambert Amboise? “Are you talking about the traitor to the neighboring kingdom and the wanted man who tarnished the honor of the royal family?”

“Yes, I do, Your Majesty.”

“Hmm. “I also heard the news that you arrested him early on.”

“I had the thought of dedicating him to Your Majesty from a long time ago, and I felt excited and excited for a long time.”

“The jokes are literally a waste of time.”

“I sincerely apologize.”

“Tsk. “Sounds that don’t even exist in my heart.”

“….”

“But why did you offer him up to me?”

“yes?”

“Isn’t there some reason why you thought Jim would be happy to receive him?”

“That is…”

Gulp.

Rachiel looked at the emperor for a moment.

The emperor is still sitting crookedly on the stool with only one hip hanging. However, unlike the crooked and awkward posture, the emperor’s gaze as he looked down was stern and somehow warm.

‘Are you trying to test me again?’

On the one hand, yes, but on the other hand, no. I could sense that he was already satisfied. He’s trying to hide it by pretending to be grumpy as usual, but he’s actually happy.

The fact that the eldest son, who once had no future ahead of him, achieved such great achievements. As a father, you must be proud and happy.

Maybe it was because I felt that way.

I felt guilty.

I am not your real son. I’ve never wanted such warm gaze. You shouldn’t be looked at like that carelessly. Because I’m deceiving you. The more it happens, the more sorry I feel.

‘So…’

Now I thought that I didn’t want to ruin that person’s happiness. Even if it’s pretentious. Somehow it felt like it had to be that way.

To survive?

no.

In order not to forget that this person is deceiving that person. In order not to deceive and deceive ourselves with clumsy honesty to escape from guilt. In order not to become such a hypocrite.

Now is the time to fake it with white lies.

Protecting that person’s happiness now, even if he or she becomes an asshole that no one knows about, is the greatest atonement I can give and the only punishment I can embrace.

“I was just… happy because I was able to catch the ruthless person who disrupted my canonization ceremony, insulted the royal family, and tarnished His Majesty’s face. So I just wanted to share that joy with you.”

It’s disgusting.

I am the one making this pretense.

But on the other hand, I could see it.

The sight of the emperor unable to hide his laughter after hearing this answer.

“What? her. “Perhut.”

It was only for a moment.

But this was my first time seeing the emperor smiling like that. It must have been the most honest and heartwarming smile I’ve ever seen. If I think about it that way, I thought that pretense might not be such a bad thing.

At least, I wanted to say that to the real Rachiel, whom I left behind in Ilsan, Korea. I guess I did well, right? Called.

“Well done. Is this what you wanted to say? “It is at your discretion whether you kill him or keep him alive.”

“I am truly humbled by your understanding of my heart.”

“Okay, that’s good. good. “With your special sincerity, I will ‘keep’ Javilon in a prison from which he will never be able to escape.”

“What do you mean by ‘storage…’?”

“Wouldn’t it be used as a useful card in diplomatic negotiations with Amboise sometime in the future?”

“…ah.”

Rachiel opened her mouth. Honestly, I hadn’t thought of that. From Amboise’s point of view, Javilon is an unforgivable traitor.

In some ways, the fact that such a traitor is imprisoned in a foreign country can be seen as a shame. They will want to handle it somehow with their own hands.

So, the statement that it could be used as a useful card in negotiations with Amboise is not at all bluff.

‘As expected, the emperor.’

There were other processing methods other than execution or direct delivery to Amboise. I thought that this was indeed a person who had endured for a long time at the peak of imperial power.

I was immediately amazed.

It’s a really clever and clean process. I don’t have to worry about Javilon anymore. So, I think it’s time to talk about something more urgent and important than that.

“But it makes sense. Besides the matter about Javilon, there is one matter I would like to ask your Majesty.”

“It’s a matter. “What was it?”

“I have a question about your Majesty’s health.”

“Hmm?”

The emperor expresses doubt. In the meantime, the emperor is still resting only one hip on the stool. So, the emperor’s crooked posture and the health of his joints were of concern, which had been very bothersome from earlier. So, I analyzed the acupuncture point scanning data carefully throughout the conversation from earlier.

Thanks to you, I feel a little better now.

The cause was roughly predictable.

Why is the Emperor, whom I haven’t seen in a long time, sitting so strangely? The reason why he looks uncomfortable the whole time. That’s right.

“You may be wondering. “Your Majesty is now…”

From a modern perspective, it is not a big deal, but in fact, it is a serious and historic disease that caused the death of quite a few kings of the Joseon Dynasty.

“Your Majesty, aren’t you suffering because you have a super-ultra rash on your right buttock… or rather, a pustular boil?”

“…What?”

I asked outright.

The emperor flinched.

also.

bingo.
