Chapter 180: Husband and wife perform a duet
Eunuch Zhang looked at them, each with a smile on his face like a flower, and felt that the servants in Prince Ye's mansion had also gone crazy.
Their master is about to die, yet they are still laughing. Isn't this crazy?
Ji Yuntang raised her hand slightly with a smile on her face, showing a very kind attitude. She introduced herself to Yao Niang and the others:
"Everyone, please stand up. This is Eunuch Zhang, a popular figure around the Emperor. He has come to the palace today to see our Prince."
Several people bowed to Eunuch Zhang and said, "Your servants greet Eunuch Zhang."
Eunuch Zhang pulled the corner of his lips, and the expression on his face was hard to describe.
He felt that these servants in the Night King's Mansion did not care about their master at all.
Of course, Ji Yuntang looked the same.
"Princess Ye, please take me in to see His Royal Highness the Night King."
"Okay, eunuch Zhang, please follow me." Ji Yuntang agreed readily. She took Eunuch Zhang into the room. When he saw the man on the bed clearly, he was stunned. His reaction was even more excited than Luo Qingge and Xie Liuzheng who came before.
He screamed at the top of his lungs and asked in disbelief, "Who are you? How come you look exactly like His Majesty the Night King?"
Luo Junhe: "..."
Ji Yuntang: "..."
The corner of her mouth twitched. "Eunuch Zhang, do you think there is a possibility that he is His Royal Highness the Night King?"
"How is this possible!" Eunuch Zhang screamed, "Didn't Doctor Zhu say that His Highness's face has completely rotted away, his eyes are blind, his body is stiff and unable to move except for his head, and he is still spitting blood from his mouth?"
"Who is this person with extraordinary appearance, clear eyes and clean face?"
Eunuch Zhang's reaction was too big. Even though he knew in his heart that the man lying on the bed was the Night King, he still found it incredible.
How could anyone recover to this state in such a short time? Even a world-famous ghost doctor might not be able to do it, right?
He had thought that everyone in the Night Palace was a fool, but now it seems that he is the biggest fool.
But Luo Junhe's next words dealt another heavy blow to Eunuch Zhang.
"Eunuch Zhang, did Doctor Zhu really tell my father that I was going to die? And did he describe me in such a terrible way?"
"When he came to check my pulse a few days ago, I was already in this state. His medical skills are mediocre, so it's fine if he can't cure my illness. But why did he deliberately make up a story to deceive father that I was about to die when my princess cured me?"
"Dr. Zhu's actions are a crime of disrespect and deceiving the emperor. He simply doesn't take my father and the king seriously!"
Luo Junhe's eyes dimmed, and a hint of deep thought flashed across his beautiful peach blossom eyes, concealing the self-mockery and sarcasm within.
Eunuch Zhang wanted to say that this was not the case, but before that, he had said in front of Ji Yuntang and Luo Junhe that it was Doctor Zhu who said this.
If he denied it again, he would be slapping himself and Emperor Jingyang in the face.
But unfortunately, Ji Yuntang was also adding fuel to the fire.
"My husband is right. As everyone knows, Doctor Zhu is known as the most skilled doctor in the Imperial Hospital. The emperor asked him to treat my husband because he trusts him and is confident of his medical skills."
"But what was the result? He treated my husband for three whole years, making him take ice baths and sleep on an ice bed every day, and he could not eat anything solid but could only drink rice porridge. Not only did my husband's condition not improve at all, but his health got worse day by day."
"When he came to check my husband's pulse a few days ago, I had someone serve him the best spring tea in the palace. But he not only spit out the tea with disgust, but also said that I didn't take him seriously and couldn't even serve good tea to guests. I smiled and didn't argue with him. After all, he was right. It was a fact that the Ye Palace was poor."
"Later, he said that he was ordered by the Emperor to come and diagnose my husband. I personally brought him here. Before he even entered the room, he started yelling that his doctor should listen to him, that I shouldn't have moved my husband, and that my husband should sleep on that cold stone bed so that he could recover faster."
"I patiently told him that although Jinghong Courtyard is the main courtyard of the palace, it is too damp and cold. Such an environment is not conducive to my husband's recuperation. Moreover, since he changed his bed, his condition has improved under my careful care. But Doctor Zhu still refused to give in and blamed me for acting on my own and being arrogant. It was not until I brought him in and let him see my husband with his own eyes that he believed it."
"He said he wanted to take my husband's pulse himself, and my husband agreed. He also said he wanted to check my husband's eyes to see if his eyesight had really recovered. My husband also agreed. We cooperated with Doctor Zhu's various examinations. Only after he had finished all the examinations did he believe that my husband's face and eyes were really healed, and his arms could move again."
"Before leaving, Doctor Zhu told me that he would report my husband's condition to the emperor and Concubine Li truthfully so that they could rest assured. I didn't expect that he would actually tell the emperor this. As a doctor who treats illnesses and saves lives, he cursed my husband and hoped that he would die. What on earth was he thinking?"
Eunuch Zhang: "..."
How would he know this?
Ji Yuntang spoke sharply and refused to give in, completely putting Doctor Zhu on the spot.
Eunuch Zhang knew clearly that compared to what Luo Junhe and Ji Yuntang said, Emperor Jingyang actually trusted Imperial Physician Zhu very much.
It is not easy to have a doctor with excellent medical skills in the Imperial Medical Bureau, let alone an old doctor like Doctor Zhu who is experienced and has fought in the army.
If this matter is truly confirmed, and he was accused of concealing the Night King's illness and lying to Emperor Jingyang that the Night King was about to die, and was guilty of deceiving the emperor, then he would probably not be able to save his life.
Eunuch Zhang thought that Doctor Zhu could not be so stupid. Instead of telling the Emperor that the Night King was about to get better, he told Emperor Jingyang that he was about to die, causing unrest in the palace. But in the end, the Night King did not die. What was he trying to achieve?
Do you want to commit the crime of deceiving the emperor and have your entire clan beheaded by Emperor Jingyang? No one can do that, right?
Eunuch Zhang smiled awkwardly, with a hint of flattery on his face, and asked:
"Your Highness the Night King, Princess Night, is there some misunderstanding here? Even if Doctor Zhu is very brave, he would not dare to curse His Highness the Night King!"
"I think he might have seen it wrong."
Ji Yuntang had a mocking smile on his face, "Eunuch Zhang, are you trying to deliberately protect Doctor Zhu and fool the prince and this princess like fools?"
"On the day when Imperial Doctor Zhu came to see my husband, the Ninth Princess and Prince Xie were also there. Oh, and His Royal Highness Prince Chen was also there. All three of them can testify."
