After Xi Rongye woke up, the first thing he did was to send Delu to call Yan Zhou over. At this time, he was lying on the hospital bed, his face full of fatigue and haggardness, which made people feel worried. Even Yan Zhou, who had been unwilling to admit him, was a little soft-hearted when he saw his appearance.

"Yan Zhou, come here." Xi Rong Ye stretched out his hand to Yan Zhou and looked at him with expectation.

Yan Zhou finally approached step by step, stood beside the bed and looked at the person who fell ill on the bed, but couldn't help but say: "Since Your Majesty is the lord of a country, you should cherish your body. After all, the people of Xixian Country are waiting for Your Majesty to protect you."

Xi Rong Ye suddenly smiled with satisfaction and said, "Yan Zhou, are you caring about me? I'm very happy." He reached out and grabbed Yan Zhou's hand, then took something from the pillow with the other hand and handed it to his hand.

Yan Zhou immediately withdrew his hand and said at a loss: "Master, what are you doing?" His strength was naturally greater than that of Xirong Ye, and he easily broke free from Xirong Ye's hand.

Fortunately, Xi Rongye's hand was not loose yet, otherwise this thing would have been broken. If it was broken, it would not be so easy to settle the problem, because Xi Rongye's hand was nothing else, but the jade seal of the emperor of Xifeng.

"Yan Zhou, don't refuse first, listen to me first." Xi Rong Ye took Yan Zhou's hand again, with unquestionable strength in his hand, and then placed the jade seal in his hand.

Xirong Ye smiled bitterly and said, "You know my current body and I can't live many days. Just this busyness recently can make me fall down. Can you just treat it as sympathy for me, sympathize with your biological father, help me, and let me persist for a while. Even if you don't want to be an emperor, you must give me some time to find an heir."

Yan Zhou pursed his lips, "You can choose one from the royal family..."

Xi Rong Ye interrupted him, "You should know that since the prince disappeared, the court has been very uneasy and undercurrents are surging. I don't know how many of them are from Xi Yinrong. In this case, I will find a person with a wrong reputation from a sideline department, which may arouse public anger.

But you are different. Yan Zhou, you are my son, and you are the only prince in the Xixian royal family. Apart from me, only what you say is the most important and someone is willing to obey. That's why I want to invite you, can you help me handle government affairs during this period?"

"But I have another identity after all, and I believe the ministers in the court are unwilling to obey the prince of an enemy country."

"But if you don't try, how do you know that they don't listen to you? I didn't force you to be the prince or the emperor, I just hope you can help me handle affairs for a period of time. Isn't that okay?"

Xi Rong Ye's eyes were begging, and Yan Zhou, who had refused words to his mouth suddenly didn't know how to speak. The person in front of him was his biological father after all. He thought about it carefully, and then gave a compromise and said, "You let me think about it first."

Xirong Ye seemed to see hope and quickly replied: "Okay, if you think about it, come and tell me, I will arrange what you want to do." Xirong Ye was very happy inside. With this matter, he could slowly get Yan Zhou started with the affairs of the court and prepare for the future ascendance of the throne.

However, Xirong Ye didn't dare to tell Yan Zhou about this, otherwise Yan Zhou would probably shake his hands immediately and would not agree to do anything.

After Yan Zhou left the emperor's bedroom, he did not rush back to his palace, but transferred to the Imperial Hospital and found the two imperial physicians who had been treating Xirong Ye, and asked carefully about Xirong Ye's physical problems.

It’s not that he didn’t look for Yun Yizhu and Xuanlin, but that these two old doctors have always been exclusively treated to the emperor, and that they can know Xi Rongye’s physical condition more clearly from their mouths.

Doctor Li sighed to Yan Zhou, but still couldn't help saying something to the emperor: "Third Prince, I know that I have no position to say this, but I still can't help but tell the third prince that the emperor's physical condition is declining and more serious situations may occur at any time. This time, exhaustion and fainting are just an ordinary minor symptom, and I don't know what else to have to suffer from later.

I see the emperor's feelings for His Highness. The emperor really cares about His Highness and wants to compensate His Highness. Moreover, the emperor has always treated His Highness very carefully these days. I believe that His Highness himself also sees and experiences it in his heart. I also hope that His Highness cherishes this reunion that he has finally come to, and do not blindfold his eyes by the moment of anger."

After hearing what Doctor Li said, Yan Zhou returned to his bedroom in a very complicated mood. He really never considered Xi Rongye's physical condition, or he chose not to think about it, thinking that as long as he didn't care or care about the miscellaneous attitude, he just kept this attitude with the person he had never been with.

But the imperial physician just said that the man could not live long, and the last person in this world who could be considered a relative would also leave him slowly due to illness and time.

He sat silently in the room for an afternoon, not because of sadness and sadness, but because he was recalling his past attitude towards Xirong Ye, and then thinking about what attitude he should use to treat that person in the future. And Xirong Ye asked him to help deal with government affairs on his behalf. Should he agree? Do you really want to help?

Before dinner, Yan Zhou finally came out of the room. If Yan Zhou didn't come out yet when dinner was dinner, Xuan Lin would probably break into the door.

Xuan Lin asked curiously: "What are you doing when you stayed in the room all afternoon?"

Yan Zhou didn't expect to see his friend as soon as he went out. He was stunned. Then he explained to Xuan Lin: "You heard that the emperor fainted in the hall yesterday. The imperial doctor said he was overworked. He called me over this morning and gave me the jade seal, so that I could help him deal with political affairs recently and reduce his burden."

Xuan Lin raised his eyebrows and asked, "Did you agree?"

Yan Zhou pursed his lips lightly and said inexplicably: "What I said in front of him this morning was that I needed time to think about it, but now, I want to agree."

"Why do you agree? I think you were very resistant to getting involved in the matter of Xi'an Country?"

"Xuanlin, I thought a lot in the afternoon. You should know that I was with my father for a while when I was a child..." Yan Zhou felt that the extremely familiar name he had read before, but now his tongue was a little stiff and knotted.
