Disfigured Female Doctor 38
The Queen Mother sneered in her heart and said, "It is not appropriate to convict Zhou Shi based on a few corpses. Can these corpses point out that Zhou Shi killed them?"
Xiao Zhaoming had been prepared for this. If he had not been absolutely sure, he would not have told the emperor. Now he was just waiting for that person to come...
"Oh? Why not?" As Shen Wanyue spoke, there was another thunder outside the hall, and at the same time, heavy rain fell.
Crash——
"!"
Zhou Shi raised his finger tremblingly, pointing at Chen Wanyue, his lips trembling: "You...you casually brought such filthy things as corpses to the emperor in broad daylight, and you even wanted to slander me. Your Majesty, Queen Mother, you must not believe her one-sided words."
Xiao Zhaoming smiled and said, "Madam Zhou said one thing, and Doctor Zhou wanted to say ten things back. It's hard not to suspect that you are guilty."
The emperor didn't know much about Zhou Shi, but he knew his brother very well. He was a man who didn't want to meddle in other people's affairs....
"Shut up." He spoke slowly, "Can you provide evidence?"
The latter sentence was addressed to Shen Wanyue.
Shen Wanyue was given medicine by the imperial physician just now, but it was of no use.
Now she endured the pain and said to the emperor: "Of course there is."
Although Xiao Zhaoming appeared calm on the surface, he kept paying attention to see if anyone was coming.
I never expected that what I would hear was thunder one after another.
The sky outside was covered with dark clouds, which looked like an ominous sign.
The Queen Mother looked over and muttered to herself, "This rain is not right..."
The voice was so soft that the emperor sitting next to him thought it was his mother who was feeling unwell and clearing her throat.
"Bring it up there," the emperor said. "When will the coroner be here?"
The eunuch outside the hall walked in and said, "Your Majesty, it may be because of the heavy rain, so it is... troublesome to ask the coroner to come."
That's true. The coroner lives far away, so it's normal that it takes time.
Chen Wanyue pinched her fingers calmly, and walked closer to the body step by step, staring directly at Zhou Shi: "No need to wait for the coroner to come."
Xiao Zhaoming was unhappy in his heart. This went against their plan, so he said, "Oh, could it be that Madam Zhou really wanted to make the corpse speak?"
It's not that he didn't believe that Zhou Wan was capable. There were many capable and righteous people in this world, and he had met many of them when he was looking for medical treatment, not to mention that he could see their fate.
Could it be that Zhou Wan also has some kind of "divine power"?
Doubt planted the seed in Xiao Zhaoming's heart.
Zhou Shi was very nervous, but he also knew that there were no ghosts or gods in the world, and he never believed in them: "Okay, I want to see how you can get the corpse to identify me!"
The Queen Mother shook her head. This lady was getting anxious.
She has lived for so many years and has seen many capable and righteous people, but very few of them are truly powerful. Most of them are just charlatans.
The emperor naturally did not believe it and said, "Zhou Shi abandoned his own flesh and blood and robbed others of their achievements. He committed the crime of deceiving the emperor. Even if the latter thing is false, you cannot escape the crime."
The Queen Mother breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that she would not be implicated.
Xiao Zhaoming saw what she was thinking. How could this matter end so easily?
He glanced at Shen Wanyue.
Chen Wanyue walked forward on her own and came to the front of several corpses: "Your Majesty, 'the poison of snakes can kill people'. Killing people is a big deal and should not be taken lightly. Ahem... What's more, they are not the only ones who died because of this."
What she meant was that she would not let Zhou Shi off easily.
"!"
Everyone was shocked.
Who would have thought that a country doctor could have such a vicious heart? !
At the critical moment, Xiao Zhaoming stood up and took a step forward, saying, "Your Majesty, I went to Tanzhou to find a cure for my eye disease, but I didn't expect to learn that my biological mother's death that year was not caused by an epidemic, but by a widespread poison!"
The emperor never thought that this would happen, and his heart trembled: "Wasn't he infected by that palace maid?"
"No, I have asked Mr. Wu, and according to him, the disease that my biological mother was infected with can only be transmitted through blood." Xiao Zhaoming's expression was indifferent, he was just stating a fact.
This fact had been hidden in his heart for year after year, and it was finally resolved today.
Among the people present, the most frightened was the Queen Mother. She suppressed her fear and did not speak.
No...that matter was so perfect, how could Xiao Zhaoming have noticed it?
The emperor was lost in thought, and suddenly remembered the great epidemic in the palace when he was still a prince. He recalled: "I remember that epidemic killed many people... The nanny who took care of me since I was a child also died that year. But, can the epidemic be contagious?"
At this time, Zhou Shixin was half dead.
What Chen Wanyue said next made him fall into a deeper abyss: "Your Majesty, the spreading poison is not just the one we have today. It has gone through many generations, and the earliest recipe for the spreading poison was to disguise the symptoms of an epidemic. No matter how much treatment was done, it would be useless. What my father gave me was changed, so it cannot be detected and is more hidden."
At this time, the imperial physician who had examined the lady's pulse spoke up: "Yes, I can tell the lady's physical condition. Even if we knew in advance that she was poisoned, we would not be able to find out the cause."
"Who is it? With such a vicious heart, he could spread the poison in the palace without anyone noticing?" The emperor vaguely remembered the epidemic. Countless people died, and cartloads of corpses were carried out of the palace every day.
At the same time, many princes and princesses died in that epidemic...
The Queen Mother's heart was beating fast: It's okay, it's okay, even if they find out that I did it, what will happen? The Emperor won't do anything to me.
She is the Empress Dowager of Dajing, the Emperor's most beloved mother.
"Is this matter related to Zhou Shi?" the emperor asked.
Zhou Shi crawled forward like a dog: "Your Majesty! Your Majesty! I didn't! This matter really has nothing to do with me, Your Majesty."
"Someone come here." The emperor ordered the guards to drag Zhou Shi aside and subdue him. How could a man who knew so many poisons feel at ease letting anyone get close to him?
While everyone was reminiscing about the epidemic in the palace, Chen Wanyue had already come to the side of the corpse and reached out to directly lift up the white cloth covering it.
"What are you doing!" The Queen Mother was frightened and screamed.
The emperor was startled for a moment, and when he came to his senses, he was frightened by Shen Wanyue's actions and asked, "What are you doing?!"
Xiao Zhaoming frowned. He didn't expect Zhou Wan to directly lift the white cloth.
Chen Wanyue didn't care about that. The thunder outside the palace was getting louder and louder, which meant that her "death" was approaching. If she was forced to leave her body by the so-called "heaven", she might really die.
It would be best if this matter were resolved quickly.
She smiled and said, "I want the corpse to speak."
Zhou Shi was also moving around while being pressed down: "Zhou Wan, don't use these tricks to deceive His Majesty! How can a corpse speak?"
The guards behind him increased the strength of their hands.
Shen Wanyue's expression remained unchanged, and she even reached out to touch the corpse.
A woman with a face full of pus and a smile on her lips reached out to touch a pile of rotting corpses with bones showing...
It's creepy no matter how you look at it.
"You..." Zhou Shi was suddenly speechless. Is this really his daughter? Isn't this a female ghost from the underworld who came to claim his life?
"I have heard rumors that the aura of a true dragon will make the souls of the world feel at ease, and the souls of those who died unjustly will return to their bodies amid lightning and thunder..." The voice became smaller and smaller.
As Shen Wanyue's hands moved over the corpse, her face became paler and paler, and veins on her hands bulged. Outside, thunder rumbled heavily, and lightning illuminated the palace for a moment, then it returned to darkness in an instant. The candlelight was extinguished at that moment.
Everyone exclaimed: "Ah!"
The emperor held the queen mother's wrinkled hand and said, "Don't be afraid, mother."
"Hmm..." The Queen Mother was afraid.
Xiao Zhaoming took advantage of the darkness of the night and came to Chen Wanyue. Just as he was about to question her, he suddenly felt his shoulders sink.
It turned out to be Shen Wanyue falling on his shoulder: "Zhou Wan?"
He subconsciously reached out to hold her body.
"Light the lamp quickly." The emperor came to his senses and ordered someone to bring fire.
"yes."
The thunder suddenly subsided and the palace servants lit the lights.
Just when everyone's eyes were bright, they saw that one of the bodies lying on the cart actually stood up.
"Ah! Ghost!" The timid palace maid was so scared that she dropped the fire in her hand on the ground.
"ah!"
"Protect the emperor, protect the emperor!" The guards drew their swords and surrounded the emperor.
“Xiao Zhaoming, what’s going on!” When the emperor saw Chen Wanyue fainted, he had no choice but to question Xiao Zhaoming who was still standing.
How did he know? Xiao Zhaoming's face was calm, which was very different from the terrified expressions around him.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty."
As soon as he finished speaking, the corpse's hand actually moved!
"!"
Zhou Shi was almost frightened to death.
What ability does this rebellious woman have? !
The body's arm slowly raised and pointed directly at Zhou Shi.
The one who controls this mutilated body now is Shen Wanyue. Compared to Zhou Wan's frail body, this fleshless body actually feels no pain.
It's just hard to control.
Fortunately, there were some remaining clothes on this body, so after sucking in his own blood, he was able to enter this body.
She moved, and her tongue was still there?
This body is interesting.
Then he recalled the formula of the antidote for the poison, which Zhou Shi had taken before this group of people.
Among the toxic materials are preservatives and dried medicinal materials...
She walked towards Zhou Shi step by step as if she was stuck.
“You you you!”
The guards around Zhou Shi subconsciously let go of his hand and took a step back.
Having lost his support, he sat down on the ground.
The body that approached was so badly broken that its bones were clearly visible, and no one suspected it was a fake.
The body's mouth slowly opened: "It's you...that hurt me...!"
With a "crack", the jaw of the body was dislocated.
Then, the other bodies on the cart began to move.
The maid saw it, covered her mouth and opened her eyes wide: "They are moving, they are moving!"
Everyone saw it.
Chen Wanyue didn't see that the ears of the body were completely corroded and could not hear other people's voices.
The emperor and the empress dowager have never seen such a scene in their long lives!
"Really...you spoke." The emperor frowned his majestic eyebrows, and even though he was surprised, he maintained his royal image.
