Chapter 374 Seeds of Suspicion
ing, if he doesn't come to apologize in person, don't forgive him."After he finished speaking, he lifted his foot and walked out."Oh... Elder brother, where are you going""I'm going to get him back fo...Hearing the three of them say "Absolutely true" in unison, the emperor felt only irony.
His face darkened, and after a moment of silence, he finally exploded. He raised his hand and slammed it heavily on the table, pointing at the three people in front of him and roaring:
"You dare to deceive me so blatantly! You've lived too long!"
"Goodness gracious!"
Chen the physician and his two companions looked at each other, a little bewildered. They all seemed rather lost and confused.
How could this be considered fooling the Emperor
The three were so frightened by the emperor's sudden fury that their bodies trembled uncontrollably. They bowed their heads even lower, their foreheads repeatedly striking the ground, and stammered, "We are terrified, we are terrified."
"Fear"
The emperor let out a cold laugh, "I see that you all are very bold. Where can I see any fear"
Chen the physician and his companions were truly unaware of the reason behind this situation. They had no idea what they had done wrong.
At this moment, I could only lower myself to the ground and speak in official language, "Your humble servant is guilty, please pardon me, Your Majesty."
Mo Yunjing smirked silently, watching everything unfold as if tonight's events had nothing to do with him.
The Emperor was still seething with anger. He motioned for the three imperial physicians to raise their heads, his eyes boring into them, and he spoke in a veiled tone:
"I will give you one more chance. Were the words you just spoke true"
The three men, without a moment's hesitation, spoke in unison, "Every word the humble minister has spoken is true. We implore Your Majesty to see through this."
The Emperor let out a cold laugh. “Every word you said is true What a clever way to put it, ‘every word is true.’ Do you know what’s in these bowls”
What!
Dr. Chen and his two companions stared at each other in disbelief. Before they could utter a word, the emperor's chilling voice, with each syllable carefully pronounced, filled the room:
"Open your dog eyes wide and look clearly, there are twelve bowls here, all filled with the blood of my princes and princesses."
"!!!"
Now, the three imperial physicians understood exactly where the emperor's anger stemmed from.
The three of them now looked at each other, completely at a loss for words. They didn't know how to respond or how to bear the emperor's wrath.
This bowl's blood actually belongs to princes, princesses, and kings
Then….then their blood can’t mingle with the Emperor’s, meaning…Heavens!
Chen, the imperial physician, and his two companions all seemed to have thought of the same thing at once, their faces changing dramatically.
This is a earth-shattering event!
Once this gets out, it's going to cause a huge scandal.
At this moment, seeing that they remained silent, the Emperor let out a few cold laughs. "Doctor Chen," he said, "you had better tell me what is going on!"
"Your Majesty, this humble servant...this humble servant truly does not know. Please forgive this servant, Your Majesty."
"Heh." The emperor's smile was extremely cold, making one's scalp tingle. "Imperial Physician Chen, you all spoke with such certainty earlier, and now you want to dismiss me with a simple 'I don't know'"
The emperor still commanded presence, and at this moment, the three imperial physicians were completely speechless, unable to utter a word.
Their trembling became more pronounced.
The emperor didn't care how their bodies trembled. He pointed at the blood-stained bowl in Mo Yun Jing's hand and said coldly, "Do you know whose blood was in it before"
The three imperial physicians shook their heads hastily. How could they possibly know who had been bled earlier
But if this blood can merge with the blood of the King of Beijiang, doesn't that mean these bloods are the lost children of the King of Beijiang
The emperor stared at their ever-changing faces, "Today, I shall open your eyes!"
During their conversation, the emperor ordered someone to bring a chicken, a duck, and a parrot. In front of the three imperial physicians, he had blood drawn from these animals and then looked at Mo Yun Jing.
Mo Yunjing knew exactly what he meant. He was still expressionless, walked straight over and dropped a few drops of his blood into those bowls.
Chen, the Imperial Physician, and his two assistants were dumbfounded. They stared blankly at the scene, particularly when they saw the blood from Mo Yunjing merging with the blood from the three actions. Their mouths hung open in astonishment, unable to utter a single word.
At this point, they finally understood what the emperor meant when he said they were fabricating stories and deceiving him.
The emperor had calmed down. He sat there, staring at the three doctors, Chen included, "Is there anything else you have to say"
Chen the Imperial Physician quickly kowtowed and admitted his guilt, "Your Majesty, this humble servant...this humble servant deserves death. But Your Majesty, this...this is against common sense. We subordinates truly don't know why this happened."
After becoming a doctor, he always believed that blood recognition was the right thing to do and never questioned whether there was anything wrong with it.
Today, they witnessed such a shocking scene with their own eyes. They instantly doubted themselves, but could the things they had believed in for many years be so easily overturned
Soon, Chen the Imperial Physician seemed to have reacted. He suddenly looked at Mo Yunjing, and spoke with a veiled meaning:
"King of the Northern Border, could it be that you tampered with this bowl This old man has heard of a colorless and odorless elixir that can blend two types of blood together. King of the Northern Border, did you use such an elixir"
Mo Yunjing's face instantly fell, and he finally looked at Chen the imperial physician in earnest. He remembered that it was Chen who performed the blood recognition for the emperor and the crown prince.ay, silhouetted against the light.A slight smile curved An Xue Tang's lips. Could this be what they meant by: her hero arriving on a rainbow cloudAt the moment their eyes met in the air, An Xuetang's...
