The emperor knew that now was not the time to completely fall out with the Nian brothers and sisters.

Besides, he had true feelings for Concubine Hua. In fact, he had always been worried that Concubine Hua would know the truth about his loss of child and infertility.

After much deliberation, the emperor decided to leave some leeway for the Jiang family and not kill them all.

Jiang Cheng is the mastermind. For his own selfish desires, he almost harmed the people of the world. He deserves death and will be executed at a later date.

As for Jiang Shen, although he was deceived by his brother, he could escape the death penalty but could not escape the punishment of living. He was exiled to Ninggu Tower and became a slave to the armored men.

As for the Jiang family members, from now on, they are no longer allowed to serve as officials in the court or as imperial physicians in the palace.

After hearing the emperor's announcement of the punishment, Jiang Cheng kowtowed in tears to express his gratitude.

"I, your humble servant, deeply thank the Emperor for his great grace. Long live the Emperor."

The emperor waved his hand with a cold face, "Drag him out and put him in jail."

The two guards immediately opened the door and dragged the brothers Jiang Cheng and Jiang Shen out.

Concubine Hua swallowed subconsciously. She didn't even dare to look the emperor in the eye.

A trace of disappointment welled up on the emperor's face. His Shilan had changed after all. She used to be so outgoing and bright, but now she had so many dark and vicious selfish intentions.

The emperor looked at Nian Shilan with a cold voice.

"Concubine Hua Nian, through her careless use of personnel, nearly caused a catastrophe. However, considering that she was also deceived, I order her to be stripped of her title. She will be imprisoned in the Yikun Palace for one month."

Hua Fei's bright eyes were filled with confusion. If Song Zhi hadn't reminded her, she wouldn't have been able to react.

Hua Fei knelt down and thanked the emperor, saying, "I thank the emperor for his grace."

Zhen Huan and Shen Meizhuang thought that the emperor was raising it high again and then gently putting it down.

The two's hatred for Concubine Hua deepened, especially Zhen Huan, who brought the news of Huanbi's death back to the Zhen Mansion.

After Zhen Yuandao learned about the situation, he burst into tears and said:

"What a sin! What a sin! If I had known this would happen, I would never have sent this girl to the palace. I originally thought that I could let her enter the palace to fight for a good future, but I didn't expect that she would end up ruining her life in vain."

Zhen Yuandao has always had his daughter Huanbi in his heart. If he dealt with the Nian family in the past, it was only because of the oppression of the queen and the prince, but now he is full of hatred towards the Nian family.

Having harmed his two daughters, no matter how powerful the Nian family becomes, Zhen Yuandao will never back down.

But no one knew that after this incident, the emperor had made up his mind to eradicate the cancer of the Nian family.

If the prince had not discovered it in time this time, and the Jiang brothers had really succeeded, the prescription for treating the epidemic would not have been developed, and the people of his Qing Dynasty would have been harmed.

He did like Concubine Hua, and was indeed wary of the virtuous Crown Prince, but compared with the eternal future of the Qing Dynasty, the Emperor had to make a painful choice.

Thanks to Doctor Wen's prescription, the epidemic situation quickly improved.

The emperor had been looking worried for a few days, but finally he relaxed.

But when he thought that Doctor Wen was the Queen and the Crown Prince's man, he felt very uncomfortable.

He did not want to reward Doctor Wen lavishly, so he asked Su Peisheng, "I see that Doctor Wen does not seem interested in the position of Director of the Academy. If I only reward him with gold, silver and other valuables, it would seem that I am a little ungrateful."

Su Peisheng has served the emperor for so many years, how could he not understand the emperor's thoughts?

It's not that Doctor Wen is not interested in the position of the hospital director. It's obvious that the emperor is uncomfortable with Doctor Wen because he is the empress's man, so he deliberately doesn't want to promote him.

But he couldn't show it on his face. Suddenly, Su Peisheng remembered that Doctor Wen had a son.

Therefore, he smiled and said, "Your Majesty has a keen eye. I also feel that Doctor Wen is not very interested in the position of Director of the Imperial Court. However, I heard that he has a son who saved Concubine Wan during this epidemic. Why not reward Doctor Wen as well?"

The Emperor frowned and asked thoughtfully, "Has Concubine Wan contracted the epidemic? Is her illness serious?"

The emperor has been busy with state affairs these days and has no time to care about the harem. He knows nothing about Concubine Wan's affairs.

Su Peisheng had no choice but to report to the emperor that Concubine Wan was infected with the epidemic, and hinted that the emperor was afraid that Concubine Wan’s infection with the epidemic was related to Huanbi from Suiyuxuan.

The emperor sneered. If Huanbi died, she died. However, Huanbi was just a palace maid. How could she have such great abilities? I'm afraid Concubine Hua was involved in this.

He said, "Since that is the case, I will then appoint the young Imperial Physician Wen as a fourth-rank judge and reward him with gold and silver. Imperial Physician Wen has made great contributions, but now that he is old, I understand his daily hardships and will not reward him any more. I will only give him a plaque with the words 'Apricot Grove Spring Warmth'. His wife will be appointed a sixth-rank imperial consort."

Su Peisheng quickly flattered the emperor again, making the emperor feel that he was a generous monarch.

Afterwards, he went to the Imperial Medical Bureau in person to issue the imperial edict.

Although Doctor Wen felt a little disappointed, he felt that the rewards from the emperor were not small.

The title of Third-Rank Imperial Physician is indeed what all the imperial physicians in the palace aspire to be.

But as a father, he was very happy that his son became a court judge at such a young age.

Because his son had ignored everything and insisted on going to Suiyuxuan to take care of Concubine Wan, he was worried about his son.

Now that the epidemic has been resolved and the emperor has rewarded himself and his son, Doctor Wen plans to find a good marriage for Wen Shichu.

Broken Yuxuan

Wen Shichu was still staying at Suiyuxuan to take care of Zhen Huan when he saw Xiao Yunzi running over happily. He pulled Doctor Wen and said, "Congratulations, Doctor Wen! Congratulations, Doctor Wen! You have been promoted to the position of Chief Judge."

The Court Judge is equivalent to the Vice President of the Imperial Medical Bureau. Many imperial physicians have worked hard for most of their lives, with their hair and beards turning gray, but may not be able to hold this position.

Wen Shichu has reached this position at such a young age, so his future is limitless.

Wen Shichu also smiled and cupped his hands, "Congratulations, everyone."

After saying that, he felt around his body, took out a dime and gave it to Xiao Yunzi.

"Just treat it as inviting the father-in-law to have a drink and celebrate together!"

Xiao Yunzi was still a little embarrassed, but seeing Wen Shichu's sincere eyes, she accepted it.

After receiving the imperial edict, Doctor Wen wanted to return to the Imperial Hospital to discuss with his father the future care of Concubine Wan.

Concubine Wan was already in poor health, and now she had fallen seriously ill. He was really worried about leaving her to someone else's care.

Unexpectedly, Zhen Huan found him first, and Zhen Huan also knew about the promotion of Doctor Wen and his son.

She smiled at Wen Shichu and said, "Logically, I should have thanked Doctor Wen a long time ago. It's just that I've been ill. Now, firstly, I want to thank you for taking care of me. Secondly, I want to congratulate you on your promotion. Thanking you for both at the same time, I'm actually taking advantage. Doctor Wen, please don't mind."

Doctor Wen lowered his head slightly. "My lady, if you say that, you are being disrespectful to me. What's there to thank me for? As long as my lady is willing, I am willing to go through fire and water for you."
