Basically Edward himself puts him on the brink of death to protect Joffrey. I don't want to spoil what the king was doing exactly to Joffrey at that moment because it's a critical plot point and it may ruin your reading experience. Just how much betrayal would the king have felt at that moment. Also his personal doctor was appointed by Edward to Joffrey.
Man i wished the king d!ed im tired of that bish
