Chapter 444: New Imperial Household Chief
The whole group of people immediately knelt on the ground.
Only Mo Yunzhu was squatting, while Eunuch Song was standing with his back bent.
Emperor Chen Yan walked in like a dragon and a tiger.
"To see the Emperor." Everyone said in unison.
"Excuse me, what happened? Why did Liu An die suddenly? Eunuch Song, do you know the reason?"
When Chen Yan saw Song Qian, he sneered in his heart. This master came so quickly.
It takes the emperor longer to get here than it does for him to get from his study. This shows how fast and worried this old servant is.
Eunuch Song immediately said, "Your Majesty, I just learned about this too. I don't know the reason, and I'm investigating."
"What have you found out?" Chen Yan looked at Mo Yunzhu and narrowed his eyes slightly.
"Your Majesty, please don't look at me like that. It has nothing to do with me. I have been in the Imperial Hospital for the past two days and have not seen Eunuch Liu. I only saw him in Yu Garden two days ago."
Mo Yunzhu immediately curled her lips and tried to clear herself from the matter first.
Chen Yan said in a frown, "Miss Mo, you misunderstood. I wanted you to help check it out."
"It's really hard to check for sudden death. Let's first check if there are any wounds. Doctor Zhang, please check it out."
Mo Yunzhu didn't want to touch the corpse.
Doctor Zhang now wished he could remove himself, so he naturally agreed and immediately examined the body.
"No, there are no external injuries on the body." said Doctor Zhang.
"If there is no external injury, sudden death may be caused by an underlying disease, such as heart disease or cerebral hemorrhage." Mo Yunzhu touched his chin.
Eunuch Song immediately said, "It's impossible. Liu Quan has always been in good health and is a martial artist. He is healthier than most people. I have never heard that he has heart disease."
"That could be a cerebral hemorrhage. Being stimulated or emotionally agitated can easily cause a blood vessel in the brain to burst, but you can't see it from the outside."
"No, he must have been harmed by someone." Song Qian clenched his fists and gritted his teeth.
"In that case, let's call a coroner to check. They can open up the brain and body to take a look." Mo Yunzhu's words scared everyone so much that their faces turned pale.
This woman is so scary. Is she going to cut open the body?
"Could it be poisoning?" Eunuch Song suddenly asked.
Mo Yunzhu shook her head and said, "There are no symptoms of poisoning, but the expression is a little terrified. I don't know if he saw something scary."
Song Qian looked at Liu Quan's glaring eyes. There was no poisonous blue or black in his eyes. Instead, they were filled with red veins.
It looked very scary, as if one was frightened to death.
Emperor Chen Yan asked: "Could he have been frightened to death?"
Mo Yunzhu glanced at the emperor and said, "It's very possible, but we have already asked someone to investigate what Eunuch Liu has done in the past two days. We should be able to find out soon."
Mo Yunzhu actually admired Zhuo Hongli. This invisible poison was so poisonous that there were no visible symptoms.
However, she believed that if it was dissected, it would be clear. It just depended on whether they would actually do that.
After all, at this time, coroners rarely perform autopsies, and are unwilling to do so because it is disrespectful to the deceased.
"Your Majesty, I really did not do anything to Eunuch Liu. I beg Your Majesty to have mercy on me." Imperial Doctor Zhang immediately burst into tears.
Chen Yan frowned and said, "Alright, let's wait until the truth is revealed. Eunuch Song, I also believe in the character of Imperial Doctor Zhang. He shouldn't harm Liu Quan."
Song Qian glanced at Doctor Zhang, then nodded and said, "Yes, Doctor Zhang, you can go down."
Doctor Zhang was immediately grateful and bowed to Mo Yunzhu. After all, if Mo Yunzhu hadn't spoken just now, Eunuch Song would have kicked him to death with one kick.
Because of the emperor's arrival, everyone was quickly cleared out and Liu Quan's body was also carried out.
"Your Majesty, Liu An is gone. Let Xiao Cezi take over first. I will help Your Majesty arrange for the chief eunuch later.
The emperor immediately sighed and said, "I'm already used to Liu An. I didn't expect this. But among the old men, I think Eunuch Lin is careful and a good person. Let him take Liu An's place first."
Eunuch Song was stunned, dark clouds rolled in his eyes. He suddenly wondered if Liu An's death was caused by the emperor?
The thought was growing like weeds inside him.
Mo Yunzhu secretly watched the expressions of the two people and couldn't help feeling proud in her heart. If she could frame the emperor, it would really be a pleasant surprise.
A group of people went outside and sat down, and soon a servant who was older than Eunuch Liu came in.
"I am the old slave Lin Zhan, and I am here to see His Majesty, Eunuch Song, and Miss Mo." Eunuch Lin's face looked more righteous and serious than Liu An's, and his aura was a little colder.
Liu An is the smiling tiger type, but this one is more like the dean of studies.
When Eunuch Song saw Eunuch Lin, his eyes narrowed slightly.
"Lin Zhan, how long have you been in the palace?" the emperor asked.
"Your Majesty, it has been thirty years. When I entered the palace, I followed the Empress Dowager."
"Well, I know you. You have watched me grow up. Now that Eunuch Liu has died suddenly, I need someone to serve me. You should be transferred over." The emperor made the decision immediately.
Song Qian's hands curled up slightly, but his expression did not change.
Lin Zhan was stunned for a moment, then said with great trepidation: "I obey your command."
"Okay, go find Little Li first to get familiar with Eunuch Liu's daily routine, and start following me tomorrow. By the way, you have your own people around you, so it will be more convenient to bring them along."
"Yes, Your Majesty, I will take my leave." Lin Zhan was already very calm. He immediately retreated and bowed to Eunuch Song and Mo Yunzhu.
Mo Yunzhu wanted to laugh when she saw that Eunuch Lin seemed older than Eunuch Song.
This person is definitely not Eunuch Song's man, but a real old man in the palace, and the mother of the retired emperor's man.
However, Mo Yunzhu has not yet figured out whether she is Chen Tianqi's mother.
But Mo Yunzhu should have said so directly. If she wasn't Chen Tianqi's mother, how could she have kept the servants around her?
It must be Chen Tianqi who allowed him to live. If he was not a descendant of Chen Tianqi, he would have been killed or released from the palace long ago.
And anything that Chen Yan can use must have been something he had seen often when he was a child.
It can be seen that the emperor's little thoughts are very obvious, that is, he does not want to use Eunuch Song's people.
This Eunuch Lin Zhan is definitely not Eunuch Song’s man, otherwise he would not have never shown up.
Mo Yunzhu couldn't help but think of Xu Haoqin's father, Eunuch An. Why hasn't he shown up yet?
Maybe it was because Mo Yunzhu was too worried, so when she left Eunuch Liu and was abandoned by the angry Eunuch Song, when she and the emperor went back to the kitchen to have dinner, she finally saw the long-lost Eunuch An.
At this moment, Eunuch An was standing in the middle of a row of eunuchs. He was brought here by the new chief eunuch of the Imperial Palace, Eunuch Lin Zhan.
Mo Yunzhu almost said "WTF!", this arrangement was really too high!
