Chapter 310 No Results
"The imperial physician said that Prince Ning's bones are too brittle and can break easily."
Although he couldn't figure it out, Lin Fu still told Emperor Yongping what the imperial physician had said.
Prince Ning was only in his thirties, and he did not believe this reason.
But there was no need for the imperial physician to lie.
"Hmm? How old is Prince Ning? How could this be the reason?"
Sure enough, Emperor Yongping did not believe this statement.
"In reply to your Majesty, both of the imperial physicians are experts in traumatology, and they both said so."
When Prince Ning was treating his injuries, he did not drive Lin Fu away.
So, he was there the whole time.
Moreover, he wanted to report back to Emperor Yongping, so the imperial physician told him the results of the examination truthfully.
Of course, when the two imperial doctors return to the palace from Prince Ning's Mansion, Emperor Yongping will certainly summon them to question them.
"Well, then let's wait until they return to the palace and then summon them to ask them."
Emperor Yongping couldn't figure it out, so he stopped thinking about it.
He knew that his granddaughter was protected by the gods and no idle person could harm her.
But it is hard to say whether the immortal will take action against the person who hurt her.
But he didn't dare to ask this.
His granddaughter was already disappointed with him for what happened today. If he asked again, wouldn’t that make her even more disappointed?
He was still very satisfied with Cui Jinyu's response.
When faced with danger, he knew to avoid it and did not give in because of King Ning's identity.
"Your Majesty, this old servant..."
Lin Fu originally thought that Emperor Yongping would personally inquire about the madness of the little eunuch, but when he saw that he had no intention of speaking for a long time, he became impatient.
Anyone can see the reason why the young eunuch went crazy; it was closely related to Prince Ning.
"What else are you hiding from me?"
Emperor Yongping was looking at Chu Qinshu's peaceful sleeping face with guilt, and was a little impatient with Lin Fu's performance.
"Your Majesty, I did not conceal the truth on purpose. I thought you would personally summon the imperial physician to ask."
Lin Fu was so frightened that he knelt down and kowtowed, feeling extremely regretful.
Why didn't he just say it directly?
I don’t know if the emperor will drag him down and beat him with a stick if he knows it was Prince Ning who did it?
"I will summon the imperial physician to ask him questions. Aren't they not back from Prince Ning's mansion yet?"
Emperor Yongping thought Lin Fu was talking about Prince Ning's injury, and he was not as angry as before.
"Your Majesty, I am not talking about the doctor who treated Prince Ning. I am talking about the doctor who gave acupuncture to those ministers and the young eunuch."
Lin Fu hurriedly explained.
"Aren't those people still asleep? Why did I ask the imperial physician to ask? And isn't the Ministry of Internal Affairs investigating today's incident? Won't they ask questions?"
Emperor Yongping asked the Ministry of Internal Affairs to investigate and he would not interfere at will.
Once the Ministry of Internal Affairs finds out the results, the files will naturally be handed over.
"In reply to the emperor, this old slave... this old slave..."
Lin Fu was speechless. After all the talk, he just missed one sentence in response. But after thinking about it again and again, he felt that this sentence was very important.
"Your Majesty, I just missed something. The unconscious eunuch may not wake up."
Although it is not 100% certain that the young eunuch will not wake up, what if?
There are drugs and poisons, but the results of bringing them to the court are slightly different.
"What did you say? Can this drug kill people?"
Sure enough, Emperor Yongping was angry.
It seemed as if Prince Ning had not brought poison to the Qinzheng Palace, and he could feel at ease if he protected him.
But what I brought was poison, which made me feel...even more guilty. What should I do?
"Yes, the imperial physician said that if an excessive amount of this medicine is swallowed, the person will go mad and mad until he dies of exhaustion. If acupuncture is used to stop the madness, the person will remain in a coma and will starve to death after a long time because he will not be able to wake up and eat."
Lin Fu tremblingly repeated the imperial physician's original words.
I thought to myself that it was thanks to him that he was smart and didn't keep it a secret all the time.
Otherwise, I'm afraid I won't be able to save my head.
He had been with Emperor Yongping for several decades, so he naturally understood him.
"Is this medicine so poisonous?"
Emperor Yongping's words sounded like he was talking to himself, but also like he was asking Lin Fu a question.
But Lin Fu didn't know how to answer.
I could only kneel on the ground and keep silent.
"Send Xiao Liangzi a check to see how the Ministry of Internal Affairs is doing."
Emperor Yongping did not wait for an answer, nor did he force one. It was obvious from the beginning that answering or not answering would result in the same result.
"Hey, I'll go right away."
Lin Fu nodded, got up from the ground and left Yu's study.
After leaving the palace, he wiped the large beads of sweat from his forehead.
It's really hot this June.
Xiao Liangzi was waiting outside the hall, and when he received the order from his master, he ran very fast.
Over at the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Chief Steward Lin Bushie was worried.
He interrogated all the palace maids who swept the Qinzheng Hall every day, and searched the houses where they lived from top to bottom, but did not find anyone suspicious.
I wanted to wait until the unconscious eunuch woke up before examining him, but the imperial physician said that he might not wake up.
What should I do?
As the head of the Imperial Household Department, he had reviewed all the cases he could review, and did not dare to review those he could not review.
How to report without results?
"Manager Lin, the emperor asked me to come and ask, have you come up with the result?"
Xiao Liangzi's voice made Lin Bushi's brows frown even tighter, but as if he thought of something, his brows relaxed again in a moment.
"Xiao Liangzi, does your master have any message for our family?"
Lin Bushie and Lin Fu were sworn brothers. If there was any news about this matter from Yu's study, he knew that Lin Fu would inform him.
This incident clearly happened in the Qinzheng Hall, and the most likely person to have done it was a court official who came to court.
But the Guards searched for the entire morning and found nothing.
This caused him, the head of the Imperial Household Department, to take on a hot potato.
"Manager Lin, Master asked me to ask you something, but he has come up with the result and didn't say anything else."
Xiao Liangzi was relatively honest and did not dare to say anything nonsense in front of Lin Bushie.
He watched the entire morning court session, but he had no idea what happened in the side hall.
So, he had no idea who this matter was related to.
I'm here to run errands, just simply run errands.
"Oh, did the emperor say anything?"
Lin Bushie did not give up, so he pulled Xiao Liangzi aside and asked him in a low voice.
He was not present at the morning court session, and he heard about what happened in the side hall from Lin Fu.
Several ministers suspected that it was a spy who did it. If the spy was really found out, he, as the head of the Imperial Household Department, would probably not survive.
Although the spy has not been found yet, he cannot complete his mission and his head will not be saved.
"Manager Lin, I don't have ears in the study."
Xiao Liangzi smiled awkwardly. He was working in the study of his master, but he couldn't tell anyone what the emperor said, or he would lose his head.
"You kid, if you don't tell us how we can judge this, how can we judge it? Go back and tell your master that if we don't judge it, let him wait."
Lin Bushie was angry and didn't want to bother with Xiao Liangzi anymore.
Not to mention what happened in the morning court, just looking at what happened in the side hall, he could actually guess that there was something fishy going on.
This matter has nothing to do with his Ministry of Internal Affairs. He is just the scapegoat.
But taking the blame also depends on who you are taking it for.
