"Before I transmigrated, the original owner was still ill and hadn't fully recovered.”
"I have to pretend to be sick now. I can't let others see that something is wrong.”
Thinking up to here, Qin Zheng hurriedly secretly circulated his cultivation method, causing his complexion to turn deathly pale, pretending to have an appearance of an unhealed illness.
At the same time, he executed the Great Qin Clan's secret technique, Breath Concealing Art, to hide his cultivation to the Third Level Essence Qi Realm.
Just then, a young eunuch walked in.
"This servant greets Young Master!"
The young eunuch stepped forward and bowed respectfully.
"Young Master, is your diarrhea better?”
Qin Zheng's gaze landed on the young eunuch. The system automatically scanned the eunuch's information.
Name: Zhao Gao
[Age: 28]
[Identity: Young Master Qin Zheng's subordinate, Internal Affairs Manager]
Cultivation Realm: Sixth Level Essence Qi Realm
[Believer Level: Beginner]
[Faith Points: 0/100]
So this young eunuch was Zhao Gao.
Qin Zheng's gaze towards Zhao Gao has become a little gentler.
"Young Master, you don't look well. Has your condition not improved?”
"Yes!" Qin Zheng slightly nodded.”
Zhao Gao's heart skipped a beat, and he asked worriedly,""Young Master, how much of your strength can you use?”
Qin Zheng lied," Being able to unleash 50% is already not bad. It's barely equivalent to the Second Level Essence Qi Realm.”
"Ah!" Zhao Gao suddenly looked worried.
"Young Master, the martial arts competition for the royal family's descendants will be held in three days. You've been ranked last for two consecutive years.”
"If you get the last place again this year, the king will strip you of your identity as a son and demote you to a commoner. Sigh! What should we do…"
Zhao Gao couldn't continue.
"Oh? Why? Qin Zheng asked curiously.
"Young Master, you don't know?" Zhao Gao asked in surprise.”
"Yes, I've been seriously ill recently, and my mind is a little unclear. I don't remember much about the past. Eunuch Zhao, tell me more about it."
Qin Zheng said a few perfunctory words. He had yet to completely digest the memories of the original owner, so it was inevitable that there would be some loopholes.
"Oh!" Zhao Gao didn't suspect anything and continued," Young Master, according to the rules of the royal family: If a member of the royal family ranked last in the martial arts exam for three consecutive years, he would be stripped of his royal status and demoted to a commoner.”
"This is a rule set by Great Qin's ancestor 10,000 years ago to encourage future generations to not forget the essence of the ancestor's martial arts.”
After hearing these words, Qin Zheng's eyes instantly brighten.
He finally understood why someone had given him laxatives.
The laxative was to make his body extremely weak, causing his strength to be greatly reduced.
Then, he would be ranked last in the martial arts competition.
Someone didn't want him to continue being a young master and wanted to kick him out of the royal family.
Then who was this person?
At this moment, Zhao Gao walked forward and suddenly lowered his voice,""Young Master, this servant has some words that I don't know if I should say!”
"Eunuch Zhao, it's fine to say it!"
"Young Master, your cultivation is at the Third Level Essence Qi Realm. As long as you can normally unleash the strength of the Third Level Essence Qi Realm, you definitely won't be ranked last. This is because among those royal descendants, there are still one or two whose strength is only at the peak of the Second Level.”
"But what makes this servant curious is that every year when the exam comes, Young Master will inexplicably fall ill, causing his strength to greatly decrease.”
"For example, two years ago, Young Master's feet suddenly swelled and he found it difficult to stand up. And last year, Young Master had a sudden headache and would feel dizzy. During the competition, he couldn't even see his opponent clearly.”
"This year, Young Master suddenly had an upset stomach. He had diarrhea for seven consecutive days and his body was on the verge of collapse. Young Master, don't you think these things are a little coincidental?”
Hearing these words, Qin Zheng came to a sudden realization as he laughed coldly in his heart.
It seemed that the person behind the scenes had already done something to him for three consecutive years. That was why he had been ranked last for two consecutive years.
And this year was the last and most crucial time.
Qin Zheng's expression didn't change as he calmly spoke."Eunuch Zhao, you're so thoughtful. This Young Master will remember it.”
"Um…"
Zhao Gao was slightly stunned.
Qin Zheng's reaction is somewhat out of his expectations.
In the past, the Ninth Young Master was young and impatient. If he had heard those words just now, he would have been excited immediately. He would not have been as steady as he was today.
The Ninth Young Master today seemed to be a little different from before.
"Eunuch Zhao, this young master wants to be quiet for a while. You can leave first!”
"This servant will take his leave!"
Zhao Gao bowed respectfully and then slowly left.
Walking out of the room, Zhao Gao was also a little puzzled.
According to his personality, he would only hide the last words in his heart and not say them out loud.
But today, for some reason, he only cared about Qin Zheng's safety and actually said all the words that he had hidden in his heart for a long time.
Zhao Gao naturally didn't know that this was all because Qin Zheng had used the Ascending Card on him, turning him into a believer.
Hence, his loyalty towards Qin Zheng had reached an extremely high level.
After Zhao Gao left, Qin Zheng slowly straightened his body, and the paleness on his face disappeared.
"Who is plotting against me?"
"Humph! No matter who it is, his plan this time is going to fail. My current cultivation is at the Fourth Level Essence Qi Realm. It seemed that there would be a good show to watch in this competition!”
Thinking up to here, the corners of Qin Zheng's mouth curled into a cold smile as a sharp aura radiated from his body.………
