Chapter 410 Genius Doctor, Fake Daughter, and Deposed Prince 19
Cha Jiu followed Pei Yu into the palace and saw the emperor of Northern Jin for the first time.
The other party sat high up in the hall, with a friendly look on their faces, and seemed to be getting along very well.
But in reality, his eyes were filled with scrutiny.
People like this are the most suspicious and the most difficult to get along with.
Pei Yu knelt down and kowtowed: "I am Pei Yu, the humble servant, and I pay my respects to Your Majesty. I wish Your Majesty a long life and good health."
"Stand up."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Pei Yu stood up and gently helped Cha Jiu up at an angle where the emperor couldn't see.
This small action caught Yun Zhiruo's eyes, and ripples of jealousy arose in her heart again.
She looked at the Fourth Prince who stood up by himself without even paying her a glance, bit her lower lip, and lifted up her heavy skirt.
The emperor looked at Pei Yu's thin (firm) and frail (thin) figure, and felt mixed emotions: "You must have suffered a lot over the years."
Pei Yu lowered his eyes, hiding the coldness in his eyes, and replied obediently: "I have no worries about food and clothing, and my loved ones are in good health, so I have no pain to speak of. Moreover, I have been praying to Buddha for my father... Your Majesty's health and the prosperity of the country. Therefore, my heart has long given up the pain, and only peace and happiness remain. Life is free, which is enough."
The system didn't understand all this twists and turns, so it took out its translation pen and started translating.
Cha Jiu was shocked and asked inwardly: "Your translation pen can be used like this?"
System: "What's the big deal? Turn on the 'social skills' mode."
Cha Jiu: "So what did you translate?"
System: "Pei Yu's words probably mean: Damn useless father, look at how filial I am!"
Cha Jiu: “…This is a very enjoyable translation.”
Sure enough, the emperor was deeply moved after hearing Pei Yu's confession.
According to the reports from the spies, he knew that Pei Yu would take out half of his time every month to go to the temple in the mountains to eat fast and chant Buddhist scriptures and pray for his father.
Over the years, rain or shine, he has been devoted to her.
The emperor never thought that he had treated his son like this in the past, but the son did not hold any resentment. Instead, he became even more filial. His character was truly pure and true.
Alas, I should not have listened to Concubine Hui and some court officials who said that Pei Yu was using a hypocritical appearance to win the hearts of the people and control the court in an attempt to make him abdicate as soon as possible.
This caused him to become suspicious of his filial and talented son and allow others to frame him.
But his son had already been deposed and the mistake had already been made, it was too late for the emperor to regret.
Thinking of this, out of guilt, the emperor sided with Pei Yu on the issue of the golden needle.
He looked serious on the surface, but his tone was actually quite gentle. His eyes fell on Cha Jiu and he said, "You said that this golden needle was given to you by Du Zhong, but you are not related to Du Zhong. Why would he give you such a valuable thing?"
Everyone in the martial arts world knows that Du Zhong's Panlong Jinzhen was passed down by his master and has extraordinary significance. How could he easily give it to a little girl who has nothing to do with him?
Everyone thought that Cha Jiu would inevitably be nervous and afraid, stuttering and making mistakes when meeting Tianwei for the first time.
Unexpectedly, she was calm and composed, and her voice was clear and clear: "Your Majesty, I met Doctor Du Zhong by chance when I was collecting herbs in the mountains. He saw that I had good medical skills and great talent, so he insisted that I become his disciple. I refused, so he forced this Panlong Jinzhen on me. I had no choice but to accept it, and he also gave him a precious Shenlong grass picked on the cliff in return."
The fourth prince sneered: "Yun Zhichu, do you know that lying to the emperor is a capital crime? You are extremely talented, but the ghost doctor insisted on taking you as his apprentice. Everyone knows that when you were driven out of the Yun family, you were just an unlearned mediocre person who had not even read a medical book many times."
Yun Zhiruo glanced at Cha Jiu and agreed, "Both this minister and my father can testify. Yun Zhichu did not take any medical books with her when she left home. Every book was brand new. Moreover, she always fell asleep during her father's lectures and never listened. Therefore, she only has a superficial understanding of medicine and often makes mistakes in pulse diagnosis."
At first, Yun Zhichu hid her talents so well in the Yun family that no one in the family discovered that she was a genius.
Later, when Cha Jiu came into this body, whether he was treating Pei Yu or going to the mountain villages to treat the villagers, he did it all in secret, so he was not well-known.
As for curing Xue Ling's epilepsy on the street last time, it was not a difficult task at all. Most doctors in Beijing could do it, so Yun Zhiruo did not take Cha Jiu's medical skills seriously.
The Fourth Prince naturally thought the same, thinking that she was just an ordinary doctor who knew a little about medicine.
The emperor frowned, not knowing how to help Pei Yu.
Unexpectedly, Cha Jiu was not panicked at all, and said calmly: "What the Fourth Prince and Miss Yun said is proof that I am extremely talented."
What
Everyone present was stunned.
This girl is so scared, what crazy things are she saying?
Pei Yu pursed his lips and said nothing, a smile flashing in his eyes.
Cha Jiu turned to the emperor and said frankly, "I am indeed gifted. I could distinguish hundreds of herbs when I was three years old. I read all the medical books in the Yun Mansion and could recite them by heart when I was five. So those medical books are always new, because I can remember them after just one look. I also understand everything that the Imperial Doctor Yun teaches, so I felt bored and fell asleep."
When these words were spoken, everyone except Pei Yu and Cha Jiu himself was stunned.
It takes a crazy person to say something like this.
If the emperor hadn't been present, the fourth prince would have almost blurted out, "Just brag."
Pei Yu clenched his fist to his lips and coughed twice to hide his smile. Then he said, "Yun Zhichu is extremely talented, and I can prove it. If your majesty and the others don't believe it, you can ask the doctors of the Imperial Hospital to examine her."
The emperor nodded in agreement with the proposal, and then summoned all the free doctors in the Imperial Hospital.
This also includes Doctor Yun.
Doctor Yun was very surprised to see that Cha Jiu could answer all the questions raised by the imperial doctors fluently, and even many tricky and unusual diseases were not difficult for her.
When did this kid become so amazing?
Is five years enough for a medical novice to reach this point?
Doctor Yun's impression of Cha Jiu was still that of the character Shang Zhongyong, who had never shown any outstanding performance since she memorized a book "Collection of Medicinal Herbs" at the age of five.
The emperor was curious and asked, "Since you have such talent, why don't you show it openly?"
Cha Jiu glanced at Doctor Yun with a half-smile.
The latter was startled and immediately had a bad feeling.
Sure enough, Cha Jiu's next words made him sweat profusely.
"Oh, that's because when I was five years old, the two elder brothers of the Yun family said so themselves."
"They said if I continue to outperform them, they will find ways to kill me."
Doctor Yun: “!”
Yun Zhiruo: “!”
The emperor turned his gaze to the Yun father and daughter with a meaningful look.
