Chapter 397 - 397 Be At the Mercy of His Subject
397 Be At the Mercy of His Subject
Qian Jiyun glanced unhappily at Imperial Physician Yang, who was ready to read his expression and act accordingly. He motioned for him to take Prince Sui’s pulse before glaring at Prince Sui.
Imperial Physician Yang obeyed. Wiping the cold sweat off his forehead with his sleeve, he walked toward Prince Sui and knelt down to take his pulse.
However, despite taking his pulse on both his left and right hands, he found nothing wrong with Prince Sui’s body.
His pulse was steady and strong, as was his breathing. His heart was racing a little, and his body was trembling, but this could be due to his fear of the Emperor. What else could it be?
Even if Imperial Physician Yang made up a story now, he could not come up with anything. Besides, Qian Jiyun, Prince Zhan Yun, was not to be trifled with. He had already threatened him once yesterday. If he spouted nonsense again today…
The Prince Zhan Yun Residence had its own physicians too. If Qian Jiyun exposed his lie, he would lose his head!
“Imperial Physician Yang, how is Prince Sui?” the old emperor asked in a deep voice when he saw that he had not spoken for a long time.
“Well…”
Imperial Physician Yang retracted his hand and closed his eyes. Still on his knees, he turned to face the old emperor.
“Your Majesty, Prince Sui doesn’t have any illnesses. Perhaps I’m…” Not skilled enough.
In the end, he did not say the last few words aloud. He was the head of the imperial hospital. If he lacked skills, what would that say about the rest of the imperial physicians?
He felt that Prince Sui was just looking for trouble for no reason. He was not sick at all! Why was he shouting?
The old emperor took a deep breath.
He knew this would happen. Prince Sui’s illness was probably not something these imperial physicians could treat. That woman at Qian Jiyun’s residence was still the cause of the illness.
However, he could not ask Qian Jiyun to bring her into the palace. After all, they had not even found the cause of his illness.
“Jiyun, you can go back first.”
He gestured at Qian Jiyun to leave first. As for Prince Sui, he would treat him slowly!
“I’ll take my leave.”
Qian Jiyun was eager to leave immediately. He did not want to stay here any longer.
After Qian Jiyun left, the old emperor glared at Prince Sui with his sharp gaze. Prince Sui trembled again!
“Father, I really—”
“Shut up!”
Prince Sui wanted to defend himself, but the old emperor did not want to hear him at all.
“I’m warning you. If I hear you say that your arms hurt again, whether it’s true or not, I’ll break your arms personally!” he warned angrily.
This was the second time! The dignified Emperor had to be at the mercy of his subject!
And it was all thanks to this son!
Prince Sui shivered in fear and shrank back, afraid to respond.
Why do I have a feeling that my arms will still hurt tomorrow?
But even if he felt so, he dared not say anything and shrank back like a quail.
The old emperor looked at Imperial Physician Yang and instructed, “Imperial Physician Yang, you don’t have to return to your residence today. Stay with Prince Sui at his residence. Keep an eye on him and see if his arms still hurt!”
Prince Sui’s arm had already recovered during both of Imperial Physician Yang’s visits. He wondered if Imperial Physician Yang could find anything amiss while Prince Sui’s arm was still in pain.
“Yes, yes, Your Majesty.”
Imperial Physician Yang did not dare to refuse. He accepted the order and left with Prince Sui.
