The imperial city of Daliang, where the prince resides.
Liang Qiufei was also lying on her own bed, staring at it with lifeless eyes and an expressionless face.
Beside the bed, the gray-haired imperial physician placed one hand on Liangqiu Feiye's wrist, with a look of fear on his face.
Before the Ninth Prince entered the palace, someone rushed to the Imperial Physician's Office and dragged him over to wait so that they could take the Ninth Prince's pulse.
Thinking about the orders the emperor had issued for the Ninth Prince in the past three days, completely disregarding the people's wishes, Doctor Zhang felt a little panicked.
If his pulse is not diagnosed accurately, and there is a slight deviation, then...
After placing his fingers on Liangqiu Feiye's wrist, Imperial Physician Zhang concentrated all his attention and observed carefully, fearing that something might go wrong.
But why is this pulse so strange?
Imperial Physician Zhang's brows gradually knitted together, with a look of obvious confusion and doubt.
Liangqiu Yuzhe stood aside and asked nervously, "Doctor Zhang, how is Ninth Brother's health?"
Imperial Physician Zhang hesitated, shook his head and said nothing.
Seeing the reaction of the imperial physician, Liangqiu Yuzhe's heart sank. Could it be that Ninth Brother's condition was very bad?
That's right. After all, I stayed with the female corpse for three whole days and I don't know how he was treated.
After a moment of silence, Liangqiu Yuzhe continued to ask, "But what's the big problem? Imperial Physician Zhang..."
Before Liangqiu Yuzhe could finish his words, he heard a loud and powerful voice outside the door, "Big problem?!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a middle-aged man in a dragon robe strode in. It was the current emperor of Daliang, Liangqiu Tianxiao.
Immediately, everyone in the hall put on airs and saluted, with words of greeting falling one after another.
"No need to be polite!" Liangqiu Tianxiao casually waved his sleeves and walked to the bedside. He glanced at Liangqiu Feiye's pale face, his expression full of worry. "Fei'er, how do you feel?"
The emperor's question was also what everyone present wanted to know, so they all fell silent, waiting for Liangqiu Feiye's answer.
Liangqiu Fei was also in deep thought and didn't move, as if he didn't hear the emperor's question at all, or perhaps, he heard it but didn't want to answer.
Although being treated like this by his own son, the emperor did not show any sign of anger. He turned to look at the imperial physician beside him.
"How is Fei'er? Is there really a big problem?"
Imperial Physician Zhang withdrew his hand, sweat faintly visible on his forehead. "Your Majesty, the Ninth Prince is only suffering from blood loss... He is not seriously injured."
Imperial Physician Zhang's words were hesitant, and the Emperor naturally sensed something was wrong. His eyes suddenly turned cold, "Hmm?"
Zhang Imperial Physician's expression changed as he heard the question and he fell to his knees. "Your Majesty, I dare not lie to you. The Ninth Prince's situation is somewhat special."
The emperor looked at him coldly, "What's so special about it? Tell me directly."
"The Ninth Prince has lost a tremendous amount of blood. Logically, he should have fallen into a coma and shock." Imperial Physician Zhang glanced fearfully at Liangqiu Feiye, whose eyes were wide open. "The Ninth Prince was brought into the palace by General Hou, and he walked into the palace on his own."
For ordinary people, losing so much blood would mean they are on the verge of life and death.
But Liangqiu Feiye remained conscious from beginning to end and was able to walk on his own. This was really strange.
Imperial Physician Zhang had never seen such a condition before, so he said that it was just blood loss and not a serious problem.
Upon hearing this, the emperor's face changed. After a pause, he suddenly kicked Imperial Physician Zhang out.
"According to what you said, it's correct that Fei'er is in a coma and shock right now, right?"
Being in coma and shock means that he is really close to death. Considering how much the emperor dotes on the ninth prince, how could he bear to see such a scene?
Everyone present lowered their heads, fearing that the emperor would vent his anger on them in a rage.
Even after being kicked, Imperial Physician Zhang did not dare to get angry at all. He dragged his old body to his feet and continued to kneel, "Your Majesty, please calm down. I did not mean that."
"If that's not what you mean, then what does it mean?" The emperor sneered.
Imperial Physician Zhang knocked his head to the ground and was about to continue explaining and defending himself, but he heard Liangqiu Fei on the bed also speak.
"If you want to argue...can you please go out?"
When Liang Qiu Fei said this, there was a hint of smile on the corner of her mouth, but her beautiful eyes were icy cold.
However, the person he was talking to was not only the imperial physician, the general's maid, but also the most honorable monarch of Daliang, Liangqiu Feiye's father!
General Hou, who had been standing in the corner as a background from beginning to end, took a breath unconsciously, thinking that the Ninth Prince was really audacious. He dared to use such a tone to the emperor. Was he looking for death?
But what happened next almost made him drop his eyes in shock.
Faced with Liangqiu Fei's impolite words of expelling him, the emperor did not get angry, and did not even seem annoyed at all.
He looked at Liangqiu Feiye tenderly and replied with a smile, "Okay, I'll send them out right away. Fei'er is tired, so get some rest!"
After saying this, the emperor turned to the others in the hall, his eyes cold, "Everyone get out!"
The two completely different attitudes were seamlessly connected and harmonious in the eyes of the emperor.
General Hou came back to his senses in a daze, and then he found that all the palace maids and eunuchs serving in the hall were accustomed to such scenes. When the emperor finished speaking, they staggered out.
Imperial Physician Zhang, hoping that under the influence of the Ninth Prince, the Emperor would forget his offense, quickly retreated.
Seeing this, General Hou did not linger any longer. After all, he had completed the task of finding the Ninth Prince, and the Emperor had no reason to trouble him again. The lives of his family were saved.
Liangqiu Yuzhe wanted to stay and see, but under the emperor's cold gaze, he opened his mouth and left.
When only Liangqiu Feiye and the emperor were left in the palace, the atmosphere suddenly became silent.
Liangqiu Fei simply ignored the emperor and continued to stare above the bed.
The emperor sighed deeply, "Fei'er, I know you are blaming me, blaming me for not choosing Concubine Ling, but this... is not a reason for you to disregard your own life!"
"Liangqiu Feiye, have you ever thought about what would happen if you really lost your life..." The emperor shook his head, his tone heavy with sorrow, "How would I cope with this? To whom would I hand over this kingdom I have conquered?"
Hearing this, Liangqiu Fei finally turned his attention to the emperor.
He moved his body, as if he wanted to sit up, but... he had to give up because of the female corpse on top of him.
"Father, didn't I tell you long ago that I have no memory of Mother before the age of five, so why is it strange?"
With a light laugh, Liangqiu Fei continued, "As for the kingdom you, Father, have built, I see that the ministers in the court all hold Third Brother in high esteem. And then there's Big Brother, as the Crown Prince, he's extremely capable, isn't that also possible?"
"So, Father, why are you staring at me?"
