When Imperial Physician Li heard this, he was stunned: "The Emperor knows all this?"
Ji Xingzhi helped Imperial Physician Li back to his chair and asked, "Does Imperial Physician Li know about the epidemic?"
Imperial Physician Li nodded: "I know a thing or two."
"The sudden outbreak of an epidemic in Qucheng is not an accident, I suspect. Most epidemics are caused by unclean food. And the places where epidemics break out are all dirty and messy places, usually spread by farmers, villagers, and beggars, one to ten, ten to a hundred. But in Qucheng, the epidemic started from within the city, which is obviously very strange..." said Ji Xingzhi.
After hearing what Ji Xingzhi said, Imperial Physician Li was no longer nervous, afraid, or trembling. He even boldly replied, "What if the beggars in the city get the disease and it spreads within the city?"
Ji Xingzhi nodded slightly and said, "I can't rule this out. I've already sent people to Qucheng to investigate, and we'll have results soon. Until then, please keep it secret, Imperial Physician Li. I'll leave the general in your care. Tell everyone that his wound was contaminated with poison, and that the poison is contagious. Isolate him first."
"I obey your command." As he said this, Imperial Physician Li was about to stand up and kneel down to pay his respects to Ji Xingzhi. Ji Xingzhi was quick to help him and pull him back to the chair.
"Imperial Physician Li is old, and there is no need to perform such a grand ceremony in the future," said Ji Xingzhi.
After hearing this, Imperial Physician Li burst into tears. Your Majesty... Your Majesty is exempting him from the kneeling ceremony!
So, Imperial Physician Li wanted to kneel down and express his gratitude again.
Ji Xingzhi stopped supporting him and said calmly, "Kneel down! If you kneel again, I will kill all your clans."
Imperial Physician Li's face turned pale, and he remained in a half-squatting position, not daring to move.
Seeing this, Ji Xingzhi was speechless: "Am I really so cruel and heartless in your eyes?"
Imperial Physician Li's face turned completely pale, even with powder it wouldn't be as white as his.
Ji Xingzhi didn't hesitate any longer. She was afraid that if she continued, Imperial Physician Li would kneel on the ground and beg her for mercy. If the news got out, people would accuse her of bullying an old man.
Ji Xingzhi then waved his hand and said, "Alright, you can go now. If even a single word of what happened today gets out, I will kill your entire clan."
Imperial Physician Li looked stern as he bowed to Ji Xingzhi and said, "Your humble servant obeys your command. I will take my leave."
Looking at the hurried back of Imperial Physician Li, Ji Xingzhi couldn't help but touch his chin with his hand, frowning and muttering: Am I so scary?
In fact, Ji Xingzhi just underestimated the power of imperial power and forgot the four words "the king never jokes".
Pursing his lips, Ji Xingzhi walked to the window, opened it, looked up at the stars in the sky, and sighed secretly. Today was another sleepless night.
Ji Xingzhi took a deep breath, turned around and said loudly, "Someone come here."
The door opened, and two maids lowered their heads and asked, "What does the emperor want?"
"Send all the medical books in the palace here." Ji Xingzhi said.
"yes."
The next day.
Ji Xingzhi got up from the bed before dawn, rubbed her eyes, put on her clothes in a daze, and then asked the palace maids to come in and help her wash up.
When the palace maid was combing Ji Xingzhi's hair, Ji Xingzhi kept her eyes closed because her eyelids were too heavy to open. If the palace maid hadn't supported her, Ji Xingzhi would have fallen off the chair.
However, when she arrived at the court, Ji Xingzhi seemed to have suddenly become a different person. She became energetic and vigorous. The palace maids who witnessed Ji Xingzhi's miraculous transformation were a little confused.
How come the emperor, who was originally panting heavily, suddenly became energetic?
