Chapter 2835 Borrow Something

"Is His Majesty looking for me?"

"That's right." Zhao Yuanjing raised his chin, "Miss Ji, sit down, I have something to tell you."

"There's no need to sit down. If you have anything to say, you can tell me."

"After many years of not seeing each other, Miss Ji has become even more indifferent." Zhao Yuanjing smiled and said, "I want to borrow something from Miss Ji."

Ji Tangtang shook his head: "I am alone now and have nothing. There is no treasure worth borrowing from your majesty."

"No, only you have such a thing."

"What exactly is it?"

"I heard that you possess a piece of ice marrow."

Ji Tangtang frowned: "Why do you ask this?"

"It seems to be true."

"Who told you?"

"Zhuang Yunshu." Zhao Yuanjing answered calmly.

With Ji Tangtang's ethereal and indifferent temperament, even if she knew that Zhuang Yunshu had leaked her secret, she would not do anything to her.

Sure enough, after hearing this, Ji Tangtang just frowned and quickly calmed down.

She said calmly: "Do you know what ice marrow is?"

"It's a huge piece of thousand-year-old ice deep in the iceberg where you live."

"Is this what Zhuang Yunshu told you?"

"I've heard about it for a long time, but I'm just not sure."

"What does Your Majesty want the ice marrow for?"

"I'm about to die."

"What?" Ji Tangtang looked up at him.

Although he was wrapped in a thick coat, he still looked thin and his face was pale and sickly.

Ji Tangtang's big and slightly drooped eyes showed a bit of confusion: "How could you become like this?"

"Do you still remember the poisonous powder your mother gave me during the Battle of Blue Bird City?"

"I understand." Ji Tangtang whispered, "Sister Yun must be very sad. I should come back early."

Zhao Yuanjing said: "I need your ice marrow."

"Ice marrow is just a piece of ice that has existed deep in the iceberg for thousands of years. It has no magical effect, and it can't cure you. Don't listen to Zhuang Yunshu's nonsense."

"I don't want ice marrow to cure illnesses."

"Then what are you going to do?"

"I... just don't want to turn myself into a pile of bones." Zhao Yuanjing looked calm, "The ice marrow should keep me as I am now, right?"

"What's the point of this?" Ji Tangtang disagreed, "When a person dies, it's like a lamp going out, his soul returns to heaven, and his body returns to dust. Isn't this bad? Why force yourself to leave a body behind."

"Everyone has their own ambitions. I probably can't be as free and easy as Miss Ji."

"If that's all, I can't give you the ice marrow." Ji Tangtang shook his head, "It doesn't make any sense. If you die, you will die, sooner or later. How can you, a smart person like you, not look away?"

"What if I say it's for your sister Yun? She definitely doesn't want me to turn into a pile of withered bones."

Ji Tangtang fell silent after hearing this.

"I want the ice marrow. It won't hurt anyone. But it can comfort some people who are still alive."

"What you said... makes sense." Ji Tangtang lowered his head and thought for a moment, "But the ice marrow grows in the icebergs of Jade Bird City and cannot be transported out. If you want it, you can only go by yourself. With your physical condition, even if It’s hard to get there before you die if you set out immediately.”

"I have a solution for this. I just need Miss Ji to give me the key to the iceberg."

"I don't have the key."

"Where?"

"Actually, I have always been in the palace." Ji Tangtang smiled slightly, "Has Your Majesty never noticed that there is a very special bracelet on the wrist of the infant princess?"
