Zichu was seriously ill, and it happened in such a complicated environment. Luzi, feeling frustrated, could do nothing but lament the situation. Was it really necessary to create more chaos?
Thanks to the miraculous treatment from the divine healer Xiao Yu'er, Zichu was spared from death. Even so, Xiao Yu'er honestly described the ongoing condition, stating that emotional wounds require emotional remedies for true healing. As for what kind of emotional wound, it was likely the pain of longing.
Due to the special circumstances at the time, Luzi did not allow Xiao Yu'er to attend the Selection event. It was better for a young woman to stay away from such worldly affairs. Those who attended were either wealthy or influential, and they understood that both good and bad could be measured by money. If one became too deeply immersed in such matters, their future path would surely deviate from the right direction.
A woman's perspective can change based on her environment; when unable to distinguish right from wrong, her values may shift. At that point, she might believe that receiving and giving are interchangeable means of obtaining what she desires. The resulting consequences could drastically alter her fate and lead her toward decline. Although few truly succeed, many still chase after this illusion.
For Luzi, all he could do was address the initial stages of the situation. Ultimately, only Zichu could control her own destiny. He could guide her on what was good or bad, but he could not change her inner self. Life is inherently colorful, and no one has the right to deprive anyone of pursuing their dreams.
Looking at Zichu, who would be lying on the sickbed the next day, Luzi found himself wanting to turn away several times but ultimately stayed. He knew how to treat this illness; besides, was it wrong for a man to have feelings for a woman? If not for Zichu's special identity, there wouldn't be so many difficulties.
With a deep sigh, Luzi finally made up his mind. He had the right to report the true situation to the current King Qin, but he did not have the authority to take away Zichu's feelings for Shishi. If he stood by and did nothing while she suffered, how could he face his old friends again? So he asked everyone to leave and then leaned close to Zichu's ear to whisper a few words.
Just moments ago, when her breath had been shallow and labored, Zichu suddenly sat up in bed and grabbed Luzi's arm tightly. "Is that true!?"
Luzi nodded. "The final competition of the Selection is in two days. If you want to see Miss Shi again, you need to get up quickly!"
To be honest, Zichu's illness was not feigned. Ever since she saw the beautiful woman smile back at her yesterday, it wasn't just that her soul was captivated by Shishi. It was when she looked into those eyes filled with gratitude yet tinged with resentment that she realized how utterly inadequate she felt at this moment. As a noble of the Qin State, she had watched a beauty suffer without being able to help.
With such little ability, could he still call himself a man? If he couldn't even protect a woman he liked, how could he talk about grand ideals of state and nation? Even if someone like Luzi had skills at this moment, it wouldn't matter...
That night, looking up at the cold sky, Zichu felt helplessly tormented by reality. As the final competition drew closer day by day, she knew that the inevitable outcome was approaching. Damn gold! Damn Zhao State! You better not let me become the future King Qin!
When Xiao Yu'er found Zichu, she discovered that this young master had collapsed in the garden, unconscious. Looking at Zichu's pale face, a wave of compassion surged within her. A woman would rather love a king who is willing to give up State and Nation for her than to be heartbroken and live alone for the rest of her life.
Is this a sign of selfishness? But is it wrong to love someone!? Why does heaven always add these painful separations out of nowhere!?
Having been by Luzi's side for quite some time, Xiao Yu'er was well aware that this Lu Gongzi was not an ordinary person. Those who could enter Luzi's line of sight were not necessarily wealthy or powerful, but they were certainly formidable men! Seeing Zichu hurt by love, she wanted to seek help from Luzi. For some reason, she firmly believed that as long as Luzi was willing to help, nothing would be too difficult.
Xiao Yu'er's background was as simple as plain water, so Luzi did not conceal the truth. He told her that Zichu was actually a hidden noble of the Qin State, deliberately kept away by King Zhao of Qin. In fact, it wasn't just Zichu; there were several others scattered outside as Proton. Among these nobles, it wasn't only they who were secretly protected. Even the most arrogant would have to admit that there were many capable individuals with different identities carrying out their own missions on the periphery.
If public funds were hastily used to buy a wife for this Wang Sun, the news would quickly reach the Qin State. The old man initially sent these grandsons out to train them with the hope that they could endure the hardships and ultimately lead the Qin State to greatness. Even without saying anything, everyone had already figured this out.
Since ancient times, there has been a saying about romantic feelings being long-lasting while heroes are short-lived; this is no joke. If we design a plan to help, we are not assisting Zichu, but rather trying to ruin him! Perhaps this is what great wisdom refers to as helplessness; one must endure life's numerous trials before reaching the pinnacle of existence.
This was the first time Xiao Yu'er had heard such a notion. Wouldn't any family treasure their eldest grandson? Yet they had to send him out to face hardships, where even a slight misstep could cost him his life.
The truth is indeed like this! When Luzi said, "Do you know what phrase the Royal Family values most? It is 'for generations to come!' Since the abdication of power by Yao, Shun, Yu, and Tang, China officially entered an era of hereditary rule. They hope that future heirs will be great heroes rather than useless individuals. How could children raised in comfort understand what a nation is? Only those children who fearlessly face wind and rain will ultimately grasp the essence of sacrifice and choice. This is the inevitable path for these King Qin Wang Sun, a path they are destined to persist on! Therefore, we cannot intervene."
It seemed that Luzi's words were not meant for himself; at this moment, with Zichu gravely ill, he could only choose to forget selectively. Seeing that this person who had just been pale now sat up with a radiant complexion made her marvel at how effective their remedy was compared to elixirs. Suddenly, she thought of the expert in this area—Xiao Yu'er.
Could these two be conspiring against me!?
Just moments ago, everything was going smoothly; why were they hesitating now? How could the opportunistic Zichu let all his efforts go to waste? Besides, currently, only this one person had the ability to help; if he missed this chance, he would never find another!
He turned over and pleaded desperately, "Help me, Luzi!
No matter how impressive one's status is, there is no reason for Wang Sun to kneel. Luzi hurriedly reached out to support the body that was about to collapse, indicating that standing up would make everything easier to discuss.
