Chapter 185 Drama Spirit Enters the Body
After he finished speaking, he turned to look at Doctor Zhu who was kneeling in the main hall with an angry look on his face.
"Doctor Zhu, tell me, why did you curse the Night King for deceiving me? Did you do it on purpose, or was there someone behind you who deliberately instigated you to do this?"
Doctor Zhu's heart trembled. He subconsciously looked up at Concubine Li. After receiving a threatening look from her, he quickly lowered his head again.
He knew that this was Concubine Li's warning to him.
If he dared to speak nonsense, the entire Zhu family would be finished.
Doctor Zhu was quick-witted and immediately started to play the victim.
"Your Majesty, how dare I lie to you? Everything I said is true. When I went to the Night King's Mansion, His Highness was really seriously ill and vomiting blood. His pulse was also very weak. Even if you give me a hundred guts, I would not dare to make up such a story!"
Ji Yuntang's eyes turned cold, and he looked at Doctor Zhu calmly, with a hint of coldness and majesty in his voice.
"How dare you lie to the emperor? Don't I know my husband better than an outsider like you? You have been practicing medicine for so many years, but have you ever seen a person who can go from being terminally ill to being a normal person in just seven days?"
"Not to mention, the Ninth Princess, Prince Chen, and Prince Xie all went to the Night King's Mansion that day and met His Royal Highness the Night King. All three of them can testify for this princess."
Luo Sinian also stood up at this time. He changed his usual indifference and a sharp look appeared in his black eyes.
"That's right. I can testify that everything the Third Princess said is true. There is not a single word of falsehood."
"When I went to the Night Palace to see my third brother that day, his body had almost recovered. Doctor Zhu was lying. He has not treated my third brother properly over the years. Instead, he tortured him in the name of treating my third brother. I ask you to investigate this matter and seek justice for my third brother."
Luo Qingge looked at Luo Sinian in surprise. She didn't expect that she, a mynah bird, would take the initiative to stand up and testify for her third sister-in-law.
You know, Luo Sinian hated Ji Yuntang before, and he and Luo Junhe even broke up because of Ji Yuntang.
So is he standing up now because Ji Yuntang cured Luo Junhe and he began to accept her in his heart?
Ji Yuntang was very satisfied with Luo Sinian's approach. This kid finally got the point. It was worth all the things she said to him in the Night Palace that day.
At least this time he made the finishing move in time and did not hold her and Luo Junhe back.
Compared to the joy of Ji Yuntang and Luo Qingge, Concubine Li was extremely angry.
What happened to Luo Sinian?
Doesn’t he hate Ji Yuntang the most and wish that King Ye would divorce this woman?
Why would you stand up and speak for her at this time?
Also, Concubine Li clearly remembered that after Luo Sinian came out of Prince Ye's Palace that day, she immediately summoned him into the palace.
It was he who told her in person that Luo Junhe was very ill that Concubine Li believed it.
But the current situation made Concubine Li realize that things were not what she thought at all.
Maybe Luo Sinian and Ji Yuntang had colluded with each other and were deliberately deceiving her and setting a trap for her.
This realization almost made Concubine Li collapse.
She has always been the one calculating against others, but ever since she met the evil star Ji Yuntang, she has suffered heavy losses at his hands several times in a row.
If Doctor Zhu's matter is not handled properly this time, it may affect her and that man's plans.
Concubine Li was extremely panicked, but she also knew that she could not act rashly at this moment, otherwise she would be exposed.
She thought about it and felt that she had to find someone to take the blame at this time.
And Doctor Zhu is the best candidate.
Concubine Li was instantly possessed by the spirit of acting. She looked at Emperor Jingyang with moist eyes and a sad voice.
"Your Majesty, please help my son. My poor He'er, I didn't even know that he had suffered so much injustice in the palace. Fortunately, I prayed to the gods and Buddha every day, and the Buddha blessed my poor son."
Concubine Chu was charming. She took a sip of tea slowly and used the tea lid to gently stir the floating tea leaves in the tea bowl. She said with a hint of sarcasm in her eyes:
"Sister Li Fei, why don't you mention Princess Ye's contribution?"
"The reason why His Royal Highness the Night King was able to recover slowly is inseparable from the careful care and treatment of the Night King's Concubine. In my opinion, Sister Li, praying to the gods for three years is not as effective as the princess you found for the Night King. Sister, you are so lucky to have such an excellent daughter-in-law."
There was a hint of sarcasm in Concubine Chu's tone. She was jealous that Concubine Li, who had been out of favor for more than ten years, had caught the attention of Emperor Jingyang again.
On the other hand, he wanted to take the opportunity to say a few good words, win over Ji Yuntang, and seek help for the King of Qi.
Concubine Chu knew clearly that if Luo Junhe recovered and Concubine Li regained the emperor's favor, her son would have another powerful opponent in the fight for the throne.
However, the reason was because Ji Yuntang was helping him from behind.
Without Ji Yuntang, what would Luo Junhe be?
When Concubine Chu looked at Ji Yuntang again, there was a little more appreciation and pity in her eyes, as well as a hint of hidden calculation.
"Princess Ye is a weak woman who was forced to marry in place of the Yongning Marquis's Mansion. Not only that, she also has to support the entire Ye Palace with her own strength. She is truly a role model for women in our Dongchen Country."
"Where did Doctor Zhu get the courage to murder our Dongchen Kingdom's God of War Prince? Your Majesty must get to the bottom of this matter."
It’s not that Ji Yuntang didn’t see Concubine Chu’s advances towards her, but she chose to turn a blind eye.
This woman is different from Concubine Li. Concubine Li keeps her bad side to herself and shows her good side to others. She is a real-life version of the Black Lotus.
Concubine Chu's evil and ambition were reflected on her face. When Ji Yuntang saw her for the first time, he knew that this woman was unscrupulous and a master at scheming against others.
Therefore, she also kept her distance from both the King of Qi and the Royal Concubine Chu.
Emperor Jingyang was furious. He knew that Doctor Zhu was not lying and that Ji Yuntang had planned all this, but he had to deal with the matter head on.
In his heart, he cursed Doctor Zhu as a waste. He hadn't killed Luo Junhe in three years, and now he was giving the other party a chance to catch his breath.
Amidst all these emotions, Emperor Jingyang became furious and slammed the table hard.
"Zhu Rushan, I have trusted you for so many years and entrusted the Night King's health to you for treatment. Is this how you treat my son?"
"Now that the evidence is irrefutable, what else can you say?"
Doctor Zhu was already frightened silly, but fortunately he had been in the court for many years and still retained a trace of rationality in his mind.
He knew very well in his mind that he had to admit the crime today whether he admitted it or not.
