Chapter 1170 Friends and Father and Son

OK, don't say such unpleasant words anymore - even though it carries Jacob's vision that Bancrot would be quiet, Bancrot still ignored Jacob's sight and continued:

"Jacob, tell me the truth quickly-how do you feel now?"

If you know each other, tell me the truth quickly - Bancrot unceremoniously cast a sharp gaze at Jacob with this meaning.

Feeling Bancro's sight, Jacob sighed helplessly, and then said softly:

"I feel fine now."

"If I were asked to use a figurative metaphor to describe my current physical condition, I feel like I'm just recovering from a serious illness."

"The serious illness has just recovered..." Bancrore sighed, "That means - not only does the potion have real effects, but also the side effects are real..."

Originally, Bancrot was a little lucky - this potion might have no side effects, or the side effects were very small.

But now it seems that Bancrolo's small expectation has been disappointed.

He raised his remaining right hand and rubbed his forehead. After a while of silence, Bancrole finally made a sound to break the quiet atmosphere:

“It’s really terrible…”

As soon as Bancrolo finished speaking, the guards' notification suddenly sounded outside the door:

"Grand Prime Minister Gong! Su Cheng, the leader of the Michael Knights Order, requested to enter!"

As soon as the guards' announcement fell, Jacob and Bancrot raised their eyebrows at the same time.

Jacob, who couldn't help but smile, murmured softly:

"Is Cheng here..."

"Do I need to avoid it for the time being?" Bancrore, who was standing beside him, asked Jacob very consciously.

Jacob and Su Cheng had a deep relationship, and they were like father and son - everyone knew about this.

In order not to disturb the meeting of the "father and son" who had been together for a long time, Bancrole took the initiative to avoid it.

After thinking for a while, Jacob nodded softly:

"Well, then I'll trouble you."

After whispering "You have to be polite", Bancrole took his cane and limped towards the door with it.

When he opened the door and left the room, Bancrole happened to run into Su Cheng who was waiting outside the door to enter.

Seeing that the person who came out of Jacob's room was Bancrolo, Su Cheng hurriedly saluted Bancrolo and said hello.

Bancrolo quickly waved his hand, signaled to avoid the gift, and chatted with Su Cheng for a brief chat.

...

...

Jacob, lying on the bed, looked at Su Cheng who was standing in front of the bed with a smile and looking at him with a complex mood on his face.

"Since, long time no see," Jacob said softly first.

Jacob himself couldn't remember when he last met Su Cheng.

"Mr. Jacob..."

After learning that Jacob's physical condition had finally improved a little and could visit her, Su Cheng immediately put down everything at hand and rushed to Jacob's room to rest.

Before visiting Jacob, Su Cheng had a lot of things to say to Jacob.

However——When I really stood in front of Jacob’s bed and saw Jacob’s pale face, Su Cheng felt like a thorn in his throat. All the words he wanted to say to Jacob were accumulated in his belly and could not speak a single word.

After a long time, Su Cheng finally spoke up and asked Jacob:

"Mr. Jacob. Why are you like this...What the hell happened...?"

...

...

Su Cheng knew the existence of the potion.

Three years ago, the Holy Hillan Empire launched a large-scale southward invasion and the Britannian Empire launched a counterattack, Jacob showed Su Cheng the potion at his home and briefly explained how this potion came about.

Therefore, Jacob does not need to explain the origin of this potion to Su Cheng, but can explain the causes and consequences of swallowing this potion in a straightforward way.

Jacob outlined his devouring of potions and the failure of potions in a brief language.

After Jacob finished speaking, Su Cheng, whose face was full of astonishment, exclaimed:

"Mr. Jacob! What are you doing!"

"You actually swallowed that medicine!"

Jacob chuckled a few times with a hint of helplessness:

"Zheng, you were not on the scene at that time, so I don't know how bad and dangerous the battle was at that time."

"I had no choice but to swallow this potion."

"This country is everything for me. I am willing to do anything for the Britannian Empire."

Speaking of this, Jacob paused.

Then he turned his head and smiled at Su Cheng beside him:

"Don't worry about me, sincere. My physical condition is actually better than I thought."

"I'm not so weak that I can't even do a normal daily life."

"I still have many years to live, and I can continue to work in the position of "Preface Prime Minister" for a few more years."

"So... don't show this expression, honest."

"I don't like watching others cry."

"I don't like people who are very important to me to cry..."

"So——Make, don't show this expression..."

...

...

It took a while before Su Cheng finally controlled his emotions.

Just as I wiped away the tears from my face and wanted to say something to Jacob, the sound that Su Cheng didn't want to hear suddenly sounded outside the door:

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty's servant is looking for you!"

Don't bother me - Su Cheng, who is not in good mood now, subconsciously wanted to shout this sentence outside the door.

He doesn't want to see anyone now, he just wants to stay here.

But as soon as the words came to his mouth, he swallowed them back.

Being patient, Su Cheng asked to the guards outside the door:

"Is Your Majesty's servant right outside the door?"

"Yes!"

Su Cheng turned his head and asked softly to Jacob:

"Is it convenient for him to come in?"

Jacob nodded: "Let him come in."

With Jacob's permission, Su Cheng shouted out the door again:

"Let Your Majesty's servant come in!"

"yes!"

...

...

As soon as His Majesty's servant entered the room, before he could salute Su Cheng and Jacob, Su Cheng took the lead and asked him directly:

"No gifts. Tell me if you have anything to do."

"Yes! Your Majesty summons you to her study!"

——Your Majesty? Study room?

Su Cheng felt puzzled.

Ilsa actually summoned him to the study room—there is only one possible reason: Ilsa has something to discuss with him.

Although I really wanted to spend a little longer with Jacob in this room, it was obvious that he no longer had the time to do such things.

After all, you can't ruin business for your own personal affair.

"Sorry, Mr. Jacob. I'll go back." Su Cheng stood up and apologized to Jacob with apologies.

"No need to apologize, sincerely. Go to Your Majesty's study. Your Majesty may be waiting for you now. You can come here anytime."

Jacob was also very understanding of Su Cheng who had to leave.

If Su Cheng insisted on staying here, Jacob would be very unhappy and drove Su Cheng to Ilsa's study.

After watching Su Cheng leave his room, Jacob closed his eyes and fell asleep within a short while.

The physical condition is not bad - Jacob's words to Bancrot and Su Cheng are actually a lie.

Just now, after chatting with Bancro and Su Cheng for a while, Jacob felt that his body was quite exhausted.
