Chapter 720: Chapter 720
It had not been longer than the ti it takes to drink a cup of tea when Doctor Wang followed Uncle Zhong to the front hall.
Doctor Wang was around thirty, of average build, and had fair skin. He always wore a long robe, presenting himself as cultured and elegant, and could be considered a handso man.
“This humble one greets the Prince and the General,” he said as he knelt and bowed his head the mont he entered, maintaining a very respectful deanor.
In reality, he was well aware—because of his indiscretion with Lady Tang—that facing so many significant figures, he feared their piercing gazes would see through him, which is why he kept his head down.
Situ Yongjie said, “Stand up and speak.”
“Thank you, General.”
“The illness of Auntie Tang, was it you who diagnosed it at the beginning?”
“Replying to the General, yes, the incident happened suddenly, a maid hurried to fetch . Although I recognized that Auntie Tang had been poisoned, my limited knowledge compelled
to ask the General to summon the Imperial Physician. The General is aware of this matter.”
“Hmm, Doctor Wang indeed did not prescribe any dications for Auntie Tang,” Situ Yongjie nodded his head and then asked, “Was it you who prescribed the dicine for Xuexue’s foster mother?”
Upon hearing this, Doctor Wang’s heart skipped a beat, and his head drooped even lower: “Replying to the General, yes.”
Situ Yongjie pulled a piece of paper from his sleeve and handed it to Doctor Wang, “Look at this, is it the prescription you wrote?”
Doctor Wang looked at it, his heart skipped a beat again, then cald down, “Replying to the General, this prescription was indeed written by .”
Situ Yongjie turned and handed the prescription to Long Rui, saying, “Prince, I know nothing of dical matters. There are many talented individuals and extraordinary people in your household, could we possibly have soone check if there is anything wrong with this prescription?”
War Prince put down his teacup leisurely and took it, glancing at it, “It just so happens that I have a doctor here who might be able to resolve General Situ’s doubts.”
With that, he passed the prescription back behind him: “Doctor Fan, would you mind?”
A thin man stepped out from behind the War Prince, took the prescription in his hand, and glanced at it, “My Lord, the prescription has no issues.”
Prince Pu grew impatient, “If there’s no problem here, and no problem there, then how did my daughter get poisoned?”
Doctor Fan then said, “To find the cause is actually rather simple.”
Prince Pu snorted coldly, “Simple? Then enlighten this Prince, who has poisoned my daughter?”
Doctor Fan gave a slight smile, unruffled, and said, “Prince Pu, please be patient, let
explain slowly.”
Newly anxious, Prince Pu spoke brusquely, “Speak if you have sothing to say, fart if you have to fart.”
His daughter still lay unconscious on her bed while the culprit road free, a thought that greatly frustrated him.
Doctor Fan said, “Just bring out the dicine pot used for brewing the dicine on that day, and everything will beco clear.”
Upon hearing this, Prince Pu beca even more annoyed, “That’s just farting without shitting, you’ve said nothing of substance. So much ti has passed, the culprit could have destroyed all traces by now, would she leave anything behind, she’s not stupid.”
After saying this, he glared fiercely at Xuexue as if he was certain she was the culprit.
Xuexue, seemingly oblivious, picked up a snack from the table and ate it bite by bite.
“A country girl will always be a country girl, never fit for higher society,” Prince Pu sneered, his tone filled with disdain.
Indeed, at such a tense mont.
Xuexue was actually eating snacks and leisurely sipping tea as if nobody else was present, not too carefree at all.
Prince Pu was frantic, no wonder he found her unbearable.
