Chapter 503: Are You Scolding Me? (Update 1)
Chen Songshi narrowed his eyes: "She can't afford it, so what does Doctor Zhou mean - can you afford it?"
"I--"
Zhou Kangxue choked and his face turned red.
Emperor Mu Wu's health was already extremely bad, how could he dare to respond?
If something happens later, he will have no way to defend himself!
However, it is absolutely impossible to let Ye Chutang go so easily.
"So, Lord Wang trusts Ye Chutang very much?"
Chen Songshi sneered: "When His Majesty was seriously ill and unconscious, it was she who saved the day and helped His Majesty to recover from the high fever and gradually wake up. I don't believe her, but I believe you who are helpless!"
The words were harsh, frank and straightforward, no different from slapping the other person in the face.
Zhou Kangxue wanted to refute, but Chen Songshi was telling the truth.
The meaning couldn't be more obvious - those quack doctors in your Imperial Hospital were unreliable back then, let alone now!
Seeing that the atmosphere was tense, Tang Zhongli stroked his beard and came out to smooth things over: "Okay, okay, everyone stop arguing. Isn't the Crown Prince still in there?"
After these words were spoken, everyone was speechless.
Even Zhou Kangxue gritted his teeth but couldn't utter a word of rebuttal.
Chu Qiyuan is a highly respected person, and he really doesn't have the courage to question him in public.
Seeing that Zhou Kangxue had also lost his temper, Jiang Qingmei became even angrier.
She was so angry that she was shaking all over and her face looked extremely ugly.
She used to be a noble concubine, and these people gave her some face for her father's sake, but now...
Just as her mind was racing, trying to think of some way to break the current situation, the tightly closed door was suddenly pushed open from the inside.
Squeak——
This slight movement was like thunder at this moment and immediately attracted everyone's attention.
Countless pairs of eyes looked forward.
Chu Qiyuan took the first step forward, and Ye Chutang followed behind.
For some reason, everyone kept quiet tacitly.
The first person to react was Jiang Qingmei.
Her expression changed, and she was about to rush in: "Your Majesty!"
Chen Songshi frowned and gave a look, and immediately a palace servant came forward to stop her.
Not to mention that she is no longer a royal concubine. Even if she still is, she has no right to just barge in at this moment.
Jiang Qingmei's blood boiled, tears welled up in her eyes: "How dare you stop me! If His Majesty gets into trouble, I wonder what you will do! You——"
"Your Majesty needs to rest and no one should make any noise."
Chu Qiyuan's words made Jiang Qingmei embarrassed on the spot.
But after all, she had been in the harem for many years, and in just a moment, she swallowed back her anger and resentment, crying sadly: "I am only thinking about His Majesty and worrying that he will be harmed by treacherous people. Is this wrong!?"
Chu Qiyuan frowned and stared at her, asking, "Traitor? Are you saying that I am deliberately plotting to murder Your Majesty?"
Jiang Qingmei said subconsciously: "Of course not!"
Chu Qiyuan narrowed his eyes: "Who are you talking about?"
Jiang Qingmei bit her lip and said nothing.
Everyone fell silent, but their eyes involuntarily drifted to the slender and graceful figure behind Chu Qiyuan.
If it’s not Chu Qiyuan, who else could it be?
These are the only two people who went in to examine His Majesty!
In the suffocating silence, Ye Chutang finally took a step forward.
She stood on the steps, looking down at Jiang Qingmei with calm dark eyes.
She spoke softly:
"So, Jiang Cairen's many accusations are all directed at me?"
