Demotion, demotion to civilians."

Jiang Chen listened carefully.

He had already thought of his way out.

From the moment he learned of the accident, he had been waiting for the king's people to arrive.

He wanted to know how the king made his choice.

He even wanted to know what role he could play in the subsequent changes and clean-up.

"But, you can still do this..."

The shadow approached Jiang Chen and whispered something in his ear.

Then, Shadow continued:

"This is the king's intention. After the great changes, the power purge in Kyoto, and the stability of the court, the king will retreat behind the scenes. After the new king takes the throne, he will personally rehabilitate you. You will still be the Dragon King, and the one hundred and forty cities will still be yours.

"

"Um."

Jiang Chen nodded and said, "I understand."

"Be careful."

After the shadow reminded him, he turned and left.

Jiang Chen took out a cigarette and lit it.

Smoke surrounds my fingertips.

After smoking a cigarette, he stood up weakly, held on to the wall and went to the refrigerator, took out a bottle of water, and went back again.

He sat on the sofa again and went to unscrew the bottle cap.

But his strength is too weak now.

No matter how hard I try, I can't unscrew the cap of the mineral water bottle.

He smiled self-deprecatingly.

"Jiang Chen, Jiang Chen, you claim to be a miracle doctor, but now you can't even solve your own physical problems. I hope you can live until the day of great changes, when the new king comes to power, and the world is peaceful. I have no regrets."

Jiang Chen weakly threw the water aside.

He didn't have the strength to walk back to the room.
