"What?"
Zhong Yuan was greatly surprised.
"That's impossible."
Judge Chen snorted coldly.
“Zhong Yuan, you and I are from the same sect. You should know my abilities over the years. I wouldn’t speak carelessly if I wasn’t absolutely certain. If you don’t believe me, let others have a go.”
A total of six imperial physicians came from the Imperial Medical Academy.
Upon hearing this, he immediately leaned forward and carefully smelled the medicinal properties.
Everyone disagreed with Judge Chen's judgment.
"With such potent medicine, how could the Emperor Emeritus's body possibly withstand it? This is an attempt to kill the Emperor Emeritus."
"This medicine, once it enters the body, will cause the internal organs to feel like they are on fire. It's too cruel."
All eyes turned to Jiang Qingwan.
They shook their heads and discussed the matter.
Mo Yunhan stepped aside to shield the person behind him.
"This medicine is what I requested, and has nothing to do with the Queen."
Mo Yunzhao sighed.
"Xiao Jiu, I know you are worried about your father's health, but you can't just rush into treatment. If I really indulge you and feed the medicine to your father, wouldn't that make his final journey extremely painful? I know you are filial, but if this gets to the ears of the court officials, they will think that you are jealous of your father's neglect of you when you were young and are looking for an opportunity to take revenge. If rumors of patricide spread, how can I protect you?"
His words were earnest and sincere.
Jiang Qingwan was speechless. Although she didn't understand why her senior brother would use such a rare and precious medicine to prolong the life of the retired emperor and change his fate, she would never allow anyone to slander her senior brother's medicine as harmful.
She stepped forward to argue, but was gently pulled by Mo Yunhan.
Regardless of whether the medicine is effective or not, he cannot allow Jiang Qingwan to become the target of public criticism.
At this moment, the clock strikes with boundless energy.
He forcefully shook off the two imperial physicians who were pulling him.
"You're talking nonsense, you're all talking nonsense."
“Look closely at the pattern on this box, all of you. This is the mark of the divine physician Luo Tian. The Emperor doesn’t recognize it, but do you, Imperial Physician Chen, not recognize it either? And you bunch of blind fools, just parroting what others say, daring to doubt even the medicine of the divine physician Luo Tian. You’ve practiced medicine your whole lives, yet you’re not even as good as one of the divine physician Luo Tian’s fingers.”
Mo Yunhan was startled.
The Divine Physician Luo Tian?
He was also a legendary figure from the Zhuge family.
He came from the same school as the legendary strategist Banlu.
Yet they all knew Jiang Qingwan.
What a coincidence!
Could it be that Jiang Qingwan is indeed Yun Tianji, the world's number one fortune teller, just as he suspected when they first met?
Zhong Yuan angrily tried to snatch the medicine.
Judge Chen instinctively stepped aside to avoid it, and upon closer inspection of the patterns on the wooden box, he was also taken aback.
It really is the mark of the legendary healer Luo Tian.
The other imperial physicians looked at each other in bewilderment.
"I've heard that the legendary physician Luo Tian can bring the dead back to life and heal the wounded. Could this medicine really save the Emperor Emeritus?"
"But the ingredients in this medicine are clearly incompatible."
"Perhaps. There are a few herbs that I didn't recognize by smell, which shows how precious they are. I've heard that Physician Luo Tian uses unconventional medicines; perhaps they can have miraculous effects?"
The jealousy in Chen Yuanpan's heart was almost twisted and deformed.
The medicine of the divine physician Luo Tian was actually found by the Ninth Prince, who gave it to Zhong Yuan to feed to the Emperor Emeritus.
If the retired emperor were to truly awaken and have his lifespan extended thanks to the miraculous medicine, wouldn't all the promises he made to the emperor become a joke?
No, the Emperor Emeritus must not be allowed to take the medicine.
“Zhong Yuan, this box does indeed bear the mark of the Divine Physician Luo Tian, but how can you guarantee that the pills inside were prepared by the Divine Physician Luo Tian?”
As he spoke, he turned to look at Mo Yunhan.
He bowed slightly in greeting.
"May I ask Your Highness, did the person who gave you the medicine claim to be the divine physician Luo Tian?"
Mo Yunzhao also asked, "Xiao Jiu, who exactly gave you the medicine? You can never be too careful, lest you be deceived?"
Zhong Yuan hurriedly knelt on the ground.
"Your Majesty, no one in the world dares to imitate the mark of the Divine Physician Luo Tian. Moreover, I just caught a whiff of this medicine. If it weren't for the Divine Physician Luo Tian, how could he have concocted a medicine with ingredients that even we can't detect?"
Judge Chen roared angrily.
"The world is full of wonders. Does that mean that the medicine we can't smell must be the medicine of the divine physician Luo Tian?"
Zhong Yuanqi felt like his lungs were about to explode.
"What are you up to by going to such lengths to refuse to give the Emperor Emeritus medicine? His condition cannot be delayed any longer. Give me the medicine now."
He rolled up his sleeves and lunged at Judge Chen.
The scene was chaotic when the door was suddenly kicked open.
"Even if this medicine was indeed prepared by the divine physician Luo Tian, it must never be given to the Emperor Emeritus!"
The Empress Dowager entered carrying a sword inlaid with jewels.
Upon seeing this, Mo Yunzhao immediately knelt down and bowed in respect.
"Mother, why did you bring the Shangfang Sword, which is a family heirloom of the Great Zhou Dynasty?"
Upon seeing this, the others also knelt down.
The Empress Dowager looked coldly at Mo Yunhan.
"If I don't bring it here, I'm afraid I won't be able to keep those rebellious sons in check. Ninth Prince, seeing this precious sword, why don't you kneel down? Are you plotting a rebellion?"
As she spoke, her gaze fell on Mo Yunhan's chest.
It then swam to the dantian area.
Sure enough, the magical artifact inside Bai Shuo's body was transferred to Mo Yunhan's body.
Ancestral rules cannot be disobeyed.
Mo Yunhan lifted his robe, preparing to pull Jiang Qingwan to kneel down.
Suddenly, a beam of blue light shot towards him.
"careful!"
Jiang Qingwan shouted and immediately pulled him to her side, while simultaneously gathering spiritual energy at her fingertips and smashing it fiercely at the beam of blue light.
In the blink of an eye, the two streams of spiritual energy collided.
The Empress Dowager staggered back two steps.
His blood surged, and he looked at Jiang Qingwan in disbelief.
