394 It Must Be Related
“Mother, don’t you understand? I fell into An Jiuyue’s trap!” He tried to speak to Consort Wen calmly, but he still looked like he was gnashing his teeth in anger.
“How is that possible? The imperial physicians didn’t find anything.”
Consort Wen did not think Qian Jiyun had many capable people around him besides Yan Qin and a few others. Could An Jiuyue be someone capable?
Prince Sui cursed internally, “Qian Jiyun, that despicable and shameless person, acted like he knew nothing in the imperial study yesterday!”
He knew very well what kind of person the woman Qian Jiyun brought back was. He was sure An Jiuyue had poisoned him.
And this poison could not be found by even the most skilled imperial physicians in the imperial hospital!
Where did Qian Jiyun find such a woman?
“Mother, send someone to find a few poison doctors for me. I’m definitely poisoned!”
He thought to himself that he would teach Qian Jiyun a lesson if he found out anything. He was too stupid and did not corner Qian Jiyun yesterday.
He would not be so lucky today. Things would be easier if he could find evidence that An Jiuyue had done something to him.
“Okay, okay.”
Consort Wen replied and turned around to call for her personal palace maid.
…
Because this involved Prince Sui, who had summoned the imperial physicians, the old emperor learned of it after the morning court assembly.
He had sense again and sent someone to intercept Qian Jiyun, who was about to leave the palace. He also sent someone to Prince Sui’s residence to bring Prince Sui here.
Qian Jiyun was quiet.
Is there no end to this? Does he think he can knead me like clay?
Prince Sui dared to flirt with my wife on the streets and even wanted to bring her back to his residence. He deserves to suffer!
Qian Jiyun looked at the old emperor indifferently and asked, “Your Majesty, nothing happened to Prince Sui yesterday. Many imperial physicians can attest. Anything that happens today shouldn’t have anything to do with me, right? Could he have been injured while playing somewhere this morning?”
Prince Sui had yet to arrive. The old emperor had a cold expression and did not say a word.
What else could he say? He would not have bothered if Prince Sui had not caused a scene at the imperial hospital today.
This was a good opportunity to take down Qian Jiyun for questioning. He had to seize it. He had to teach him a lesson and embarrass him.
“You can say that, but Prince Sui still feels pain in his arms. I’m afraid it must be related to what happened yesterday,” he said.
“Is that so?” Qian Jiyun lowered his head and chuckled.
Related? Of course, it’s related. Unfortunately for him, so what if it’s related? He deserves it.
“Have you summoned Imperial Physician Yang?” he asked.
The Emperor was speechless. He would have forgotten if Qian Jiyun had not mentioned it.
He was so focused on punishing Qian Jiyun that he did not think to summon Imperial Physician Yang.
“Eunuch Zheng—”
“Your Majesty, I’ve already asked the young eunuch outside the imperial study to invite Imperial Physician Yang,” Qian Jiyun said bluntly before the old emperor could speak.
Am I supposed to wait for Eunuch Zheng to invite Imperial Physician Yang and rehearse lines that would be disadvantageous for me so that I can only admit that Prince Sui’s arms are seriously injured?
The old emperor was bewildered. He held himself back from cursing.
Since Qian Jiyun already sent someone to invite Imperial Physician Yang, why did he ask me?
