Chapter 380: Leave This Hotbed of Trouble

Qian Jiyun was, after all, his capable minister. He could not push the blame on Qian Jiyun so blatantly to side with his son. He had no choice but to make Prince Sui swallow this bitter pill.

“Father!” Prince Sui widened his eyes at the old emperor.

I already said there’s no need for that, but Father still wants to summon Imperial Physician Yang. Is he trying to exonerate Qian Jiyun?

“Shut up!” The old emperor glared at him with bloodshot eyes.

He wanted to find fault with Qian Jiyun if he could. However, he could not accuse Qian Jiyun of anything today!

Da Qing Kingdom was his, but as Emperor, he did not have the final say in everything. Qian Jiyun was capable too. Would he not investigate this?

In the end, Imperial Physician Yang still came to take Prince Sui’s pulse. However, he could not find any illnesses. Imperial Physician Yang was good with his words—as one would expect from someone who had worked in the imperial hospital for many years and was trusted by the old emperor.

After learning that An Jiuyue had gripped Prince Sui’s arm, he said it was natural for him to feel pain.

He explained that Prince Sui had hallucinated An Jiuyue gripping him the entire time and being in excruciating pain because he had been in too much pain after An Jiuyue first grabbed him.

He even claimed that after summoning Prince Sui to the imperial study, the emperor’s dragon energy suppressed the evil energy, causing Prince Sui’s hallucinations to disappear.

He gave an excellent speech at first, and the old emperor was very pleased.

However, Imperial Physician Yang encountered Qian Jiyun, an iron plate. He bombarded him with questions, rendering him speechless. His face flushed red.

Only then did he learn that the lady who had quarreled with Prince Sui was someone Qian Jiyun had brought back. He quickly changed his story.

In the end, Prince Sui took the blame. After all, no one wanted to provoke Qian Jiyun, a murderous god who had been at the southern border for many years.

“Since Prince Sui is well, I’ll take my leave, Your Majesty.”

Qian Jiyun bowed to the old emperor and left the imperial study with his permission. Before he left, he glanced at Imperial Physician Yang meaningfully.

The emperor’s personal eunuch had gone to invite Imperial Physician Yang. Was Qian Jiyun supposed to believe that Imperial Physician Yang did not know An Jiuyue was his?

He was deliberately trying to associate An Jiuyue with evil spirits. Was he looking for a chance for the old emperor or others to use those words against him or An Jiuyue?

Did he think a tiger like Qian Jiyun was a sick cat because he did not show off his power?

Imperial Physician Yang shivered under his gaze and glanced at the old emperor bitterly.

He had no choice. He tried not to offend either party, but look what happened! He had offended both of them!

Soon, Imperial Physician Yang was chased out of the imperial study.

As he stepped outside, he heard Prince Sui scream from the imperial study.

He trembled and quickened his pace to leave this hotbed of trouble. He would not be able to appease anyone if he got involved with Qian Jiyun, Prince Zhan Yun.

He would remember this for a long time.

The old emperor kicked Prince Sui hard in the imperial study. He screamed and fell nearby.

Consort Wen wanted to go forward to check on him, but she stopped when she saw the old emperor’s dark expression. She only dared to cover her mouth and watch from the side, trembling.

“Father… Father, I know I made a mistake. I won’t do it again.”
