With one hand she heals, and the other hand she kills, the princess vows to rule the world!
Chapter 639: The Secret of the Princess
The eldest princess' words made the faces of those present change color, and their eyes looked uncontrollably at Emperor Qiwen.
As soon as Emperor Qiwen asked Shu He to express her opinion, Princess Zhaoming confronted the emperor and said that Shu He was not qualified. Isn't this obviously sabotaging the emperor and not giving him face?
Concubine Ming sat on one side with a sneer in her eyes, but she had no intention of intervening in the dispute between the emperor's two siblings.
Emperor Qiwen glanced at Zhaoming coldly, with obvious displeasure in his eyes.
"Zhao Ming, I don't care what grudges you have with Shu He, but Shu He is about to marry the Seventh Prince. She will be the daughter-in-law of our royal family! Next time, please be more careful before you speak!"
The emperor's merciless criticism made everyone see his dissatisfaction and his intolerance for Princess Zhaoming.
Yes, she dared to show no respect to him in front of so many ministers and outsiders, so why should he give her face?
"Royal brother, you..." Zhaoming obviously didn't expect that the emperor would humiliate her like this in front of everyone.
After all, she is his biological sister!
As soon as Zhaoming spoke, Emperor Qiwen noticed her, with a hint of doubt on his face. "Zhaoming, you've rarely been out of the tent these days. Why are you concerned about Miss Zhang's affairs today?"
After hearing this question, Zhao Ming's delicate face showed a trace of panic, "Royal brother, I heard that there was a rapist in the hunting grounds. I was worried, so I came to see what was going on."
Emperor Qiwen's cold eyes flashed across her. He could naturally see that she was not telling the truth, but he was too lazy to care.
"Since it depends on the situation, then just say less and watch!"
After hearing this, Zhaoming's face turned pale and he felt humiliated again.
What does my brother mean by this? Is he completely turning against her by not giving her face?
The people standing below had different expressions, but everyone had a common awareness, that is, the emperor's tolerance for Zhaoming looking for the eldest princess had reached its lowest point.
Emperor Qiwen spoke again, with a hint of stubborn partiality, and said gently: "Seventh Old Wife, you don't have to worry about what others say. Although you don't hold an official position, you are smart and clever, and you are thoughtful. I believe you can help Wen Li and others find some clues."
Shu He lowered his eyes slightly, his heart calm, "Your Majesty trusts me so much, I'm afraid I will disappoint you..."
She can help if she is busy, but she doesn't want to take responsibility.
"Don't worry, this matter has nothing to do with you. If I really can't find anything, I won't blame you. Just do it with confidence!"
After hearing this, Shu He's lips curled up slightly. This was exactly what he wanted.
"In that case, then, Shu He will obey your orders!"
She stood aside, her head raised, her body straight, her posture elegant, and her gentleness yet revealing an indomitable tenacity.
Looking at Zhaoming, she couldn't help but feel a chill in her heart.
Princess Zhaoming targeted her again and again. Did she really think she couldn't do anything to her?
Well, I should take this opportunity today to let her curb her aggressive behavior!
She retracted her gaze and bowed to the emperor, saying, "Your Majesty, before investigating Miss Zhang's case, Shu He would like to take the eldest princess's pulse. Please grant your permission."
After hearing this, Zhaoming's angry face suddenly froze, and a trace of fear spread in his round almond-shaped eyes.
Before the emperor could ask for the reason, he heard Zhaoming shout, "No!!"
The voice was sharp, flustered, and a little hoarse. This reaction was clearly a bit intense. But no one knew why she reacted so strongly.
Emperor Qiwen frowned, and his sharp eyes shone with curiosity as they shot at Zhaoming's face.
Shu He raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and met the eldest princess's eyes, as if conveying some message.
Zhaoming no longer had the mind to pay attention to Shu He's expression at this time. She only noticed the emperor's suspicious look at her, and quickly calmed down and explained.
"Brother, my sister's health has always been under the care of Imperial Physician Liu. He has never missed a pulse check every seven days. My sister is being well taken care of."
"Besides, if there was anything wrong with my sister's health, Imperial Physician Liu would have been able to tell. Why would anyone else need to take her pulse?"
"Could it be that this Shu He thinks his medical skills are better than those of the imperial physicians in the Imperial Hospital?!"
Shu He looked at her quietly, sneering in his heart, "Haven't you already experienced my medical skills in Beisha City? Are you lying now to avoid a pulse check?"
"Besides, my royal brother, you know I don't like this woman, and I don't want to accept her pulse diagnosis!"
The emperor remained silent, feeling that Zhaoming's attitude was somewhat unusual, but what she said seemed clear.
Is it possible that she reacted so strongly just because she hated Shu He?
Seeing this, Shu He said calmly, "Your Highness, Princess, I just noticed that you looked a little tired and wanted to check your pulse. Why are you so excited?"
You're explaining so much! Are you feeling guilty?
"If the princess really doesn't want me to take her pulse, then let the imperial physician in charge do it. I suggest that when she feels unwell, she can take more herbs like Scutellaria baicalensis, Perilla stems, and Ramie root. This will surely help alleviate her symptoms."
Ramie roots!
How could she know?!
Zhaoming couldn't suppress the fear in his heart and stood up uncontrollably. One hand subconsciously rested on his lower abdomen. There was a storm in his eyes and he even forgot to breathe.
Seeing this, the maid behind her immediately stepped forward and supported her arm, lowering her head and calling her softly, "Princess!"
Shu He met her gaze, with a smile on his face, but also a cold warning.
"Zhaoming, what's wrong with you?" When Emperor Qiwen saw her in this state, the confusion in his eyes deepened.
At this time, the young eunuch came to report, "Your Majesty, Doctor Zhang has arrived."
Upon hearing this, Emperor Qiwen said, "It's just right. Let Zhang Qiong check on the eldest princess."
If she doesn't want Shu He to see it, then it's okay for Zhang Qiong to see it, right?
He also wanted to know what Zhaoming was hiding!
Zhaoming's mind cleared instantly, and her expression calmed down with difficulty. She avoided his gaze and walked down from the chair.
"Royal brother, I did have some blood circulation problems yesterday and was feeling uneasy. However, I have already taken the medicine prescribed by Imperial Physician Liu. I just didn't expect that Shu He could have guessed the prescription written by Imperial Physician Liu, so I was a little surprised."
"But just because she's a skilled doctor doesn't mean she can solve cases. I'm just giving you a heads up. If you insist on having her investigate Miss Zhang's case, I won't say anything."
"Brother, I have to go back and drink my medicine. I'll take my leave now."
Zhaoming was so eager to leave that huge waves surged under Emperor Qiwen's deep eyes.
He knew that what happened to Zhaoming must be a big deal!
However, now is not a good time to expose her.
He waved his hand and agreed to her request to leave.
