With a warehouse full of supplies, I stood alone as king in this chaotic world, gun in hand.

"A special treatment method?" The Medicine King's eyes gleamed. "Young man, could you let this old man take a look as well?"

This was the first time he had encountered a poison he couldn't cure, but the more incurable it was, the more he wanted to find a cure.

During this time, he worked day and night to prepare the antidote, but the result was the same as Aiqi's. After preparing the antidote for the corresponding poison, another kind of toxicity was produced, which drove him crazy. He didn't understand where the problem was.

"No way!" Nangong Wu refused outright. "That's our family's secret recipe, we don't share it with outsiders."

The dialysis equipment is all inside the space. It requires electricity to use, so the patient has to be sent into the space for treatment, making it impossible for him to see it.

"Alright then! I was being presumptuous." The Medicine King was not embarrassed by her blunt rejection and expressed his understanding.

A secret technique is a person's lifeline, and it is never passed on to outsiders. This applies to him as well. The recipe is also a closely guarded secret. So what right does he have to ask others to show him the secret technique?

Upon hearing Nangong Wu's words, Emperor Nanqi's dim eyes brightened. "Crown Prince, can this divine physician truly cure the strange poison I have been afflicted with?"

Bei Chenyan turned around. "Father, this divine physician has unique skills. I went to great lengths to invite him. Let him examine you first."

"This humble subject greets Your Majesty!" Nangong Wu cupped her hands in greeting to him.

"You're too kind, Divine Physician." Emperor Nanqi was also surprised to see that Nangong Wu was so young.

But he trusted the crown prince's judgment; if his son said it was okay, then it definitely would be okay.

Nangong Wu glanced at Bei Chenyan, "Let me examine His Majesty's health first!"

Upon hearing this, Eunuch Yu assumed she wanted to take the emperor's pulse, so he immediately stepped forward, took the emperor's hand out from under the covers, and rolled up his sleeve.

"Eunuch Yu, please take Master Yaowang down for tea first. I'll be fine here," Bei Chenyan said.

Upon hearing this, the Medicine King knew that he was being told to avoid the situation.

"Then I shall take my leave!" He glanced at Nangong Wu one last time before leaving, secretly hoping that this young man could cure the emperor's poison.

After Eunuch Yu led the Medicine King away, Nangong Wu took out a small bottle, uncapped it, and placed it under Emperor Nanqi's nose.

Emperor Nanqi had no suspicions. After taking a few breaths, his eyelids grew heavy again, and he slowly closed them and fell asleep once more.

Nangong Wu put away the bottle and said to Beichen Yan, "We should not delay. I need to send your father into the space and give him a full-body check-up using medical equipment."

"Okay," Bei Chenyan quickly agreed.

He knew that the medical equipment in her space was very powerful and could accurately detect what problems a person's body had.

"Take care of things and come into the space too," Nangong Wu said to him again, and then sent Emperor Nanqi into the space's medical room.

"Very well." Bei Chenyan walked out of the bedchamber and gave instructions to the imperial guards standing outside:

"You guard this place well. No one is allowed to enter without my order."

"Yes, sir!" The commander of the Imperial Guards bowed and accepted the order.

Bei Chenyan turned around and returned to his bedchamber, closing the door to the main hall.

Seeing that Nangong Wu and his father were no longer there, he spoke up, "Nangong Wu, I can..."

Suddenly, he was pulled by a force, and his surroundings changed instantly. He found himself in the infirmary in the space.

Aiqi and Ailin were already waiting in the infirmary. One was drawing blood from Emperor Nanqi, and the other was sitting in front of a computer, typing on the keyboard.

"Crown Prince of Nanqi, come here and tell me about the patient's recent reactions," Ai Qi asked Bei Chenyan.

"Okay..." Bei Chenyan told her about the recent physical reactions of the Southern Qi Emperor.

After listening to what he said, Aiqi said to Nangong Wu, "Master, the patient's kidneys are the biggest problem."

As Nangong Wu changed into her white coat, she said to her, "Let's give him a full physical examination first, and then we'll develop a treatment plan."

Hearing their professional terminology and their rigorous work attitude, and seeing the room full of medical instruments and equipment, Bei Chenyan felt a surge of hope.

Perhaps Father really can be saved.

Seeing that he was standing there motionless, Nangong Wu said, "There's nothing for you here. Go out and keep the children company!"

"Okay." Seeing that he really couldn't help, Bei Chenyan left.

As soon as he opened the door, he saw four children sitting on a bench outside.

When the three children saw him come out, they immediately slid off their chairs and ran towards him.

"Father!"

"Yu'er, Jue'er, Xi'er." Bei Chenyan opened his arms and took the three children.

"Daddy, don't be sad." Nangong Xi rubbed his reddened eyes with her small hands.

"Father, who was that old man in yellow clothes just now?" Nangong Jue asked him.

"That's your royal grandfather!" Bei Chenyan told the three children.

"Grandfather Huang? Is it the grandfather who wears yellow clothes?" Nangong Jue asked again.

"Nangong Jue, you idiot, that grandpa's surname should be Huang!" Nangong Xi corrected him.

Nangong Yu also felt that Nangong Jue's way of addressing people was inappropriate: "Nangong Jue, you can't just call someone 'grandfather' randomly. Only your own grandfather can be called 'grandfather'."

When you see elderly people outside, you should call them "old gentleman," "elderly person," or "grandpa" or "grandpa."

"You're all right." Bei Chenyan stroked the three children's heads, feeling very sad. "But that old man just now was indeed your grandfather."

"Grandfather?" Nangong Xi tilted her head and thought for a moment, but still couldn't understand. "But we have a grandfather."

Their grandfather lived in the royal palace.

Nangong Jue also felt something was wrong upon hearing this. "Xi'er, you're the big idiot. Your mother taught us before that there are two ways to address a grandfather: your father's father is called grandfather, and your mother's father is called maternal grandfather..."

As Nangong Jue finished speaking, the three children sensed something was wrong, and then, their three almost identical faces turned to look at Bei Chenyan.

They hadn't realized before that there was anything wrong with the word "grandfather," but now! The fact that their father's father was their grandfather finally made them realize that their father didn't have a father.

"It's just like you said. That old man from earlier is your father's father, but he's also the emperor, so you have to call him Imperial Grandfather," Bei Chenyan instructed the three children.

"Grandfather?"

The three children felt that this title was very unfamiliar and not as warm as the title "grandfather".

"Yes." Bei Chenyan nodded to them. "When your royal grandfather wakes up later, would you like to go and see him?"

The three children looked away from his face, exchanged glances, and then suddenly ran away.

Luo Yushao, who was behind them and confused, hurriedly chased after them, calling out, "Wait for me!"

Bei Chenyan: "..."

In the living area, three little heads huddled together, whispering a discussion.

Nangong Jue spoke first: "My father didn't have a father before, so this suddenly appearing imperial grandfather is strange."
