“Mother, Young Master Mengs medical skills are excellent. Since Young Master Meng is here, perhaps Father’s condition will improve. You should calm down so that you won’t be too worried. It wouldn’t be good if you wrongly accused the Princess Consort.” Rong Jinghua’s cold voice rang out slowly. He was so calm that he successfully attracted Gu Qingxue’s gaze.
If it was not for the inconvenience of being in public, she really wanted to come up and see just how thick the crown prince’s skin was for him to say such shameless words.
Rong Jinghua’s words had clearly pushed her to the cusp of the storm. Now, he was putting on a hypocritical look. It was really disgusting.
After being reminded by Rong Jinghua, the empress immediately calmed down and put away the panic on her face. “The crown prince is right. It’s all my fault for being too concerned about His Majesty’s health, which caused me to panic. Since the Prince Regent has the intention to ask Young Master Meng to diagnose His Majesty, then please ask Young Master Meng to come and see what’s wrong with His Majesty.”
Meng Qizhou quickly walked to the dragon bed and stood still. Then, under everyone’s gaze, he began to take Rong Xiaotian’s pulse.
After Meng Qizhou checked Rong Xiaotian’s pulse, he sneered and asked, “l wonder which imperial physician said that the emperor was unconscious because of the tonic?”
“It’s me. Is there anything wrong?” At this moment, the imperial physician who had spoken earlier immediately stood up and asked with a serious expression.
Nieng Qizhou looked at the imperial physician with eyes full of disdain. “The imperial physician should know better than me what is As an imperial physician of the Imperial Hospital, it is already a capital crime for one to have no medical ethics, not to mention framing someone. That is even more of a crime!”
When Imperial Physician Meng heard this, his legs went soft and he knelt on the ground with a thud. He shouted loudly, “No! This official did not, this official was speaking the truth, not hiding anything. Empress, please judge!”
The Empress hesitated for a moment, then her gaze swept towards Rong Jinghua, who was not far away, and she looked at him for help.
Rong Jinghua’s smile disappeared completely. He looked at Imperial Physician Meng and slowly said, “Imperial Physician Meng, me and mother saw that you’re a senior in the Imperial Hospital, so we trusted your words. We didn’t expect that you would actually frame the princess consort. When you did these things, didn’t you think that your actions would implicate your family’s safety?”
Imperial Physician Meng, who was originally panic- stricken, felt as if he had been struck by lightning when he heard this. He looked at Rong Jinghua as if his mouth had been gagged. He was stunned and could not say a single word of retort.
Theempress immediately changed her tone and raised her hand to point at Imperial Physician Mengs nose. She said sternly, “Bold slave, you’re still not admitting your guilt! ”
Imperial Physician Mengs face suddenly turned pale. He lowered his head as if he had lost his soul and said bitterly, “I, I plead guilty. I did everything by myself. It has nothing to do with my family. Please don’t implicate my family…”
Gu Qingxue saw that Imperial Physician Meng had admitted everything by himself and felt a nameless anger spread from her heart. “Since you said that this matter was your doing, then tell me, how could a small imperial physician like you dare to attack His Majesty?”
Imperial Physician Meng gritted his teeth. He turned his head to look in Gu Qingxue’s direction unwillingly. A dark red blood stain quickly seeped out from the corner of his lips..
