After finally coaxing his sister back and sending her back, Li Zi'an finally had time to open Shen Tianshu's letter.
The content of the letter is very simple, it is to ask what exactly is going on with Mr. Han's illness.
Li Zian was confused by the question. If Mr. Han was really seriously ill, how could he not hear anything about it?
But since Shen Tianshu asked, he decided to find out the matter.
He sent people directly to Han Guangtao and asked him to meet at Jiuzhongxian in the evening.
Han Guangtao was unambiguous and immediately replied saying that he would attend the appointment on time.
Li Zi felt relieved and said that since he still had the intention to go to the Immortal in Wine, Mr. Han must be fine.
Who knew the appointed time? The moment he saw Han Guangtao, he was startled by his haggard expression.
"What are you doing?" Li Zian looked Han Guangtao up and down, "Which little goblin did you ask to squeeze you dry? Why is your face so ugly? The circles under your eyes are dark, and those who didn't know better thought you were beaten!"
However, Han Guangtao was not in the mood to joke at all. He sighed and said, "My lord, I don't know. Something happened at home recently and I haven't slept well for several days."
"There's something wrong with the family." Li Zian's face darkened, "Why, how long do you plan to keep the matter of Mr. Han's illness a secret?"
Han Guangtao suddenly raised his head when he heard this and looked at Li Zian in panic.
"How did you...this matter actually..."
In a panic, he didn't know whether he wanted to ask Li Zian how he learned about this, or whether he wanted to explain to him about his grandfather's illness first.
Han Guangtao stared at Li Zian's sharp eyes and murmured for a long time before saying: "Actually, it's not a big problem, it's just that the old man is getting older and his temper is getting weirder and weirder.
"He found some master from somewhere and calculated that his life was approaching, so he kept making noises every day saying that he was going to die, but he refused to see a doctor for any reason.
"I'm worried that something is really wrong with his health. I've been staying in front of his bed for the past few days, forcing myself to endure this."
"I heard that your father is also going to take leave to come back to visit the doctor?" Li Zian asked again.
Han Guangtao didn't expect that he already knew this, so he could only nod helplessly and said: "We should be halfway through the journey by now."
Even his son who was far away in the capital had to be called back. It seemed that he was really seriously ill. Li Zian had no intention of continuing to drink and eat. He stood up and said with some displeasure: "You are really stupid. The old man is ill." You don’t want to come and say hello to me. Let’s ask Mrs. Tong to come over and take a look before we talk! The old man is so old, can you bear the responsibility for delaying his illness?”
After Han Guangtao sat down, he didn't even eat a sip of food and drank a sip of wine. He was scolded by Li Zian. Now he looked at the table full of food and wine with regret, but he quickly turned around and went out, following Li Zian. footsteps.
When they arrived at Han's house, Li Zian saw Mr. Han lying on the bed with a haggard look on his face. He had lost a lot of weight compared to the last time they met.
Li Zian was anxious and said faster than his brain: "Why is the disease so serious? Just wait, I will bring Mrs. Tong to see you!"
After he finished speaking, he turned around and walked away in a hurry without waiting for Mr. Han to speak.
Seeing him leave, Mr. Han, who looked sick, got up from the bed, raised his legs and gave Han Guangtao a kick.
"Why did you recruit him? You really fail to achieve anything and fail more than you do! Why don't you stop him quickly!"
"Old man, please be reasonable! I go to stop someone from asking a doctor to treat you? How unfilial of me!"
Han Guangtao was about to cry. This time he would go back to the capital with his biological father no matter what. He really couldn't live in his hometown.
And Li Zian hurriedly came out of Han's house. He was blown by the night wind outside, and his mind gradually sobered up.
Where could he go to pick up Mrs. Tong this late at night?
Even if he could accept it shamelessly, the Shen family would not agree.
Just when he was embarrassed and worried, Han Guangtao suddenly chased him out of the house, stopped in front of him and said: "Your Majesty, it's so late, don't bother Mrs. Tong to come here.
"My grandfather has committed some evil act recently. He keeps complaining every day that he is going to die, and refuses to see a doctor or take medicine.
"Just now you said you were going to invite Mrs. Tong, but you left too fast and I didn't take care of you. As soon as you left, the old man lost his temper with me."
As he spoke, Han Guangtao showed his bruised cheek to Li Zian and complained: "Look, the old man just hit me with something.
"So even if you invite Mrs. Tong over, the old man won't let her see a doctor, so don't bother. I'll try my best to persuade her. If it doesn't work, I can only wait for my father to come back."
Although I don't know where the Han family acted as the grandfather and grandson, at least Han Guangtao's words can be regarded as paving the way for Li Zian.
He took advantage of the situation and said: "It's not a good thing to hide your illness and avoid medical treatment, but the old man is old, and we can't force him too much. It's really late today. You go back and try to persuade him. I'll come back tomorrow."
Han Guangtao watched Li Zian get into the carriage and leave, and everyone on and off the carriage heaved a sigh of relief.
He turned back to the house and said to Mr. Han: "I don't know if the prince believes the nonsense I just said, but at least I got over it this time. But I see the prince's posture, sooner or later he will have to
Bring Madam Tong here to see you."
Mr. Han sighed and said: "It takes a day."
After he finished speaking, he looked at his grandson angrily: "It's all because of you brat, I think you just went to the appointment because you were greedy, right?
"If the prince really brings Lady Tong here to treat me, how can I pretend to be sick?"
Han Guangtao said helplessly: "Grandpa, the prince made an appointment with me today, but I didn't say anything when I got there. When he came up, he asked me about your illness. It shows that he has his own channels for information.
"I didn't agree with letting you pretend to be sick from the beginning. We might as well make it clear to the prince. Now that it's like this, I don't know how it will end."
Mr. Han was so angry that he directly pulled up the quilt to cover his head, and said angrily: "Okay, please leave quickly, otherwise you will make me angry!"
Han Guangtao had no choice but to worry that he would cover him up, so he could only wink at the servant on the side and ask him to take more care of the old man, and then left by himself.
After Li Zian returned to the palace from the Han family, he immediately informed Princess Rui about the matter, and then said: "Mother, I see that Mr. Han is very ill. He has lost a lot of weight. It is not convenient for me to invite him now."
When Miss Shen goes out, she will definitely trouble mother."
"Why did you suddenly become ill when you were in good condition? Why didn't we hear any news at all?"
Princess Rui glanced at her son suspiciously, but based on her years of understanding of him, she felt that he should not bother to deceive her with such a clumsy lie just to meet Shen Tianshu.
