121 Interrogation

The eunuchs and palace maids were waiting not too far away, and when they saw Feng Qingchen coming out, they immediately rushed forward. Even though Feng Qingchen was covered in blood and his face was pale, no one asked how Feng Qingchen was, but only asked how His Royal Highness Prince Luo was.

Feng Qingchen just said: "Your Highness Prince Luo, is everything alright?"

The eunuchs and palace maids were delighted and dispersed.

The eunuch hurried out, ready to tell the emperor and the empress the good news first. The palace maids were a step slower and rushed into the room to take care of Dongling Ziluo.

In this way, when the emperor and the empress come in, they can also see their good points.

By the time Feng Qingchen came out, the emperor and the queen had already received the good news.

When the emperor saw Feng Qingchen's expression, he frowned and asked, "Feng Qingchen, are you sure Prince Luo is okay?"

There seemed to be some disbelief in his words.

The Queen also looked at Feng Qingchen expectantly. It could be seen that her complexion had improved a lot because of the news. There was suppressed ecstasy in her eyes, but considering her identity as the Queen's mother, she didn't dare to show it too obviously in order to maintain her dignity and kindness.

"In reply to the emperor, His Royal Highness Prince Luo has passed the critical period, but we still need to ask the imperial physicians to confirm. Qingchen can only treat external injuries." Feng Qingchen bowed slightly but did not kneel down.

"allow."

At the door, the imperial doctors who had saved their lives rushed to Prince Luo's ward one by one, fearing that they would be a step late.

Seeing this, the queen apologized and followed him in.

After a cup of tea, the chief imperial physician Liu came out and replied respectfully: "Your Majesty and Empress, please rest assured that His Royal Highness Prince Luo is not in danger of death. As long as he takes good care of himself, he will be fine in three months."

"Good, very good, reward." The emperor looked happy, but deep in his eyes, there was shock. He glanced at Dong Lingjiu inadvertently, trying to see something in his eyes, but found that he was neither happy nor sad, and seemed to not care at all.

This ninth brother is truly an ice man, with not a single hole in his body that can be penetrated.

Unable to get any information from the Ninth Uncle, the Emperor turned his attention to Feng Qingchen, hoping to get some useful clues from him.

Since she avoided everyone for treatment, she must have some shameful secret. The emperor narrowed his eyes slightly, making it impossible for people to see the coldness in his eyes, and said in a gentle tone:

"Feng Qingchen, the doctors were helpless to treat Prince Luo's injury, but you cured him. I'm very curious, what method did you use?"

Although it was a question, Feng Qingchen could not refuse because the person asking her the question was the emperor.

Feng Qingchen thought for a moment and was about to answer when the queen came out supported by a palace maid.

After making sure that Dongling Ziluo was fine, the Queen looked at Feng Qingchen with eyes that were even colder than before.

With a turn of his almond eyes, the eunuch beside him immediately understood what was going on and shouted at Feng Qingchen, "How dare you, Feng Qingchen! The emperor is asking you a question, why don't you kneel down and answer quickly?"

kneel?

Just throw it away after use, how thorough.

Feng Qingchen knelt down obediently and said in fear, "Your Majesty, please forgive me. I am a little dazed and confused. Please have mercy on me."

After saying this, he bowed deeply again and almost fell to his knees on the ground.

In the entire hall, everyone was standing except Feng Qingchen. It was obvious that the Queen was humiliating Feng Qingchen.

"I forgive you and you are not guilty. It's just that I didn't know that Feng Qingchen, you were clearly treating Prince Luo, so how come you were covered in blood?" The emperor looked as if he had just seen the blood on Feng Qingchen's body. His words seemed to show concern, but in fact, he put Feng Qingchen in danger.

What does the emperor mean?

A hint of doubt flashed across Feng Qingchen's eyes. Thinking of the Queen who was watching covetously and the Ninth Prince who was standing by and watching, Feng Qingchen became more cautious. After a moment's thought, he said, "Your Majesty, the blood on Qingchen's body belongs to His Royal Highness Prince Luo."

"What's going on?" the emperor said gloomily.

Feng Qingchen felt a chill on the back of his neck.

The most terrifying thing is a dog that can't bark. This emperor is definitely a stabber in the back.

Feng Qingchen swallowed hard, as if frightened, and stammered, "In reply to the emperor, Qingchen, when Qingchen was pulling out the arrow for Prince Luo, blood spurted out, Qingchen couldn't avoid it, and it was all over him."

"Pull out the broken arrow? Even the imperial physician was not sure whether to pull out the broken arrow. How did you do it?" The tone of questioning was like interrogating a prisoner.

This kind of atmosphere makes people nervous for no reason, and when people become nervous, things can easily go wrong.

A gleam of light flashed in the Ninth Prince's eyes, but he concealed it by drinking tea.

"Uncle, there's something on your sleeve." After learning that Prince Luo was fine, the prince's attention was focused on Dong Lingjiu.

"Really?" Dong Lingjiu raised his sleeves and saw that it was half a leaf.

This leaf looks familiar?

The prince looked out the window, Dong Lingjiu brushed away the leaves and placed the teacup on the table.

The sound of "dong" was like good news that broke the curse, interrupting the prince's meditation and breaking the interrogation atmosphere that the emperor had deliberately created for Feng Qingchen.

Everyone's attention was instantly focused on the Ninth Prince.

Feng Qingchen secretly breathed a sigh of relief and took this opportunity to think of what to say.

She was so busy saving people just now that she didn't think of anything. When she came out, she was interrogated again. Her mind was a mess and she had no time to think.

The Ninth Prince's move came at the right time.

"What's wrong with you, ninth brother?" The emperor did not blame him, but looked amused.

The more Dong Lingjiu helped Feng Qingchen, the happier he was.

Dong Lingjiu is too perfect, so perfect that the emperor can't find any weakness in him.

"Tired." The slightly dark circles under his eyes proved that what he said was true.

After sitting here for a whole night, I was worried and anxious, so how could I not be sad? But this was definitely not referring to Dong Ling Jiu.

"Thank you for your hard work, Ninth Brother." The emperor nodded lightly but said nothing more.

I know it's a lie, but I can't tell it.

When the emperor turned his attention to Feng Qingchen again, the frightening and tense atmosphere was gone. No matter how much pressure the emperor put on her, it was useless. Feng Qingchen had already thought of what to say.

Three parts true and seven parts false.

“In reply to the emperor, because my father is a military commander, Qingchen has some knowledge of sword and knife wounds. The broken arrow of His Royal Highness Prince Luo can be removed by the imperial physician. The reason why the imperial physician did not remove it is because he was afraid that the blood would not stop flowing after the broken arrow was removed, so he did not dare to move.

After Qingchen pulled out the broken arrow from Prince Luo's wound, he sewed up the wound to ensure that it would stop bleeding. Qingchen only knew a little bit and had done a lot of research on external injuries. When it comes to medical skills, Qingchen would never dare to compare with the other imperial doctors. He was just lucky.

The doctors are very skilled. If they hadn't treated me before, even if Qingchen had pulled out the broken arrow, he wouldn't have been able to stop the bleeding. Plus, with the Emperor and Empress here, and His Royal Highness Prince Luo blessed, he's safe and sound."

Feng Qingchen racked his brains to come up with these words.

He demoted himself, praised the imperial physician, and flattered the emperor and the empress.

It's not easy to be a doctor to this extent.

"In that case, why don't you allow outsiders to watch?" The emperor was clearly intending to settle scores later.

It is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge. The emperor is too unkind. He takes revenge immediately. It is true that a gentleman cannot be an emperor.

Feng Qingchen muttered in his heart, but said respectfully: "Your Majesty, when suturing this wound, you must avoid distraction. The process of pulling out the arrow is extremely dangerous. Not only is the wound torn open, but blood is gushing out like a spring. The scene is really bloody.

If there were someone in the palace at that time, they might make a noise when seeing the situation. Once the noise distracted Qingchen, the consequences would be disastrous. In order to avoid accidents, Qingchen dared to ask the emperor and the queen to allow Qingchen to stay alone. And, and..."

Having said this, Feng Qingchen paused, his body trembling slightly, looking uneasy and scared...
