Transmigrating to the Qing Dynasty: The Beloved Princess Uses a System to Change the Plot

"Speak! As long as what you say is true, I will guarantee your life!"

Mu Yue deterred the others who wanted to step forward to stop her with a single glance.

The palace maids and eunuchs behind her were not idle either.

They automatically and spontaneously surrounded Mu Yue, not giving anyone else a chance to pick her up.

"His Highness the Crown Prince's smallpox wasn't that serious to begin with; he could have easily recovered once he had the smallpox. But Imperial Physician Li deliberately added a drug to His Highness's medicine that would prevent him from getting the smallpox!"

Upon hearing this, the expressions of everyone in the courtyard became even more interesting.

One of the imperial physicians, who was close to Imperial Physician Li, disregarded the obstruction of the surrounding palace maids and eunuchs and tried to rush towards Zhang Hai.

When he realized it wasn't working, he angrily shouted at Zhang Hai across the crowd, "Nonsense!"

"The Imperial Physician was not the only one who prescribed medicine for His Highness the Crown Prince. There were also imperial physicians who diagnosed His Majesty. If the Imperial Physician really added such herbs to the prescription, why didn't the imperial physicians point it out?"

"In that situation, if the Crown Prince couldn't be cured, everyone would have to die with him. Imperial Physician Li isn't stupid, so why would he do something so thankless?"

Zhang Hai showed no sign of panic despite the person's accusations.

Knowing that words were not enough, he immediately pointed to a locked room not far away, a relaxed smile on his face, and said, "Your Excellency has a very good habit."

"You don't actually think that praising the Imperial Academy Master now will absolve you of the guilt for your nonsense just now?"

Zhang Hai didn't even glance at the person who spoke, and continued with a smile, "He keeps a backup of every prescription he writes down!"

"If the prescription sent out is different from the one he actually writes, he will preserve the prescription very carefully, and this room is used to store these prescriptions!"

Having said all this, Mu Yue didn't hesitate at all and immediately instructed Fang Lian to unlock the room.

With their experience, Fang Lian and his companions quickly opened the door to the house.

The house is used frequently, and there wasn't much dust when I opened it.

Mu Yue glanced at Zhang Hai and asked, "Where is the prescription you mentioned?"

"If you can't produce anything, you should know what kind of punishment you'll face, right?"

Zhang Hai naturally knew this.

But he did not act on impulse.

Without hesitation, he walked towards the location where the prescriptions were placed, under the watchful eyes of Mu Yue and the people behind him.

In the blink of an eye, he held a light piece of paper in his hand.

Zhang Hai handed the prescription to Mu Yue.

Mu Yue doesn't know anything about medicine, and although she plans to learn, she hasn't started yet.

Looking at the prescription in his hand, he had no clue what to do.

Seeing Mu Yue's confusion, Zhang Hai immediately pointed to several medicinal herbs on the prescription and said, "These herbs are not in the prescription given to His Majesty."

"This is the prescription that Imperial Physician Li gave to His Majesty. If Your Highness has any questions, you may take the prescription to see His Majesty."

Mu Yue glanced at the sky; her father should be in the Imperial Study handling state affairs right now.

It would be inappropriate for her to go to the Imperial Study, as she might be impeached by ministers who disliked her brother Bao Cheng.

After a moment's thought, she instructed Chunju behind her, "Chunju, go find Father Emperor and tell him about the matters in the Imperial Hospital..."

Before Mu Yue could finish speaking, Kangxi's voice came from not far away.

"No need for trouble, I'm already here!"

Kangxi strode towards Muyue.

His expression was somewhat gloomy, indicating that he hadn't just arrived.

The others around him knelt down with a thud, their faces showing lingering fear and apprehension.

When the emperor is angry, corpses will float for thousands of miles.

They didn't want to lose their lives because of Dean Li.

But now, no matter what we say, His Majesty probably won't listen.

At the moment, only Zhang Hai remained relatively calm.

He was the one who caused all of this, and he had long anticipated the consequences.

Even if he is punished, he will not regret it.

For a moment, only Kangxi and Muyue remained standing.

Mu Yue was not afraid of Kangxi's current appearance.

She knew in her heart that Kangxi's anger was not directed at her.

She handed the prescription to Kangxi, asking, "Why is Father Emperor here?"

Kangxi took the prescription from Muyue's hand without explaining the reason for his arrival.

Because of the importance he placed on the Crown Prince, Emperor Kangxi personally saw all the prescriptions used by the Crown Prince.

His memory was fairly good, and he did not forget the prescriptions.

He compared the prescription in his mind with the one in his hand and indeed found several medicinal herbs that shouldn't be there.

After reading the prescription, Kangxi's anger intensified.

"What a fine Imperial Medical Academy! What a fine Director Li!"

He had sensed something unusual from Dean Li's attitude yesterday.

Someone was assigned to investigate Dean Li.

Before the results were even out, someone came to him and said that Mu Yue was domineering and bullying the imperial physicians in the Imperial Hospital.

Emperor Kangxi knew his daughter well and believed she wouldn't do that.

She immediately suspected that someone from the Imperial Hospital was bullying Mu Yue because of her young age.

He rushed over to support his daughter, only to discover that the Crown Prince was critically ill.

Liang Ruhai put in a lot of effort, but the clues still went cold.

I never expected such a pleasant surprise.

Indeed, Yue'er was her lucky star.

Kangxi's anger subsided somewhat, but he did not show it on his face.

His sharp gaze swept over the kneeling crowd, his tone unfriendly, "Yesterday, Imperial Physician Li took advantage of my trust to bully my daughter, and now he dares to tamper with the prescription. I had no idea when the Imperial Medical Academy became Li Cheng's!"

Upon hearing this, the kneeling crowd pressed their heads firmly to the ground, afraid of being noticed by Emperor Kangxi.

Only Mu Yue remained as usual, and even tugged at Kangxi's sleeve affectionately, saying, "Father, now is not the time to punish the imperial physician."

"Yue'er has been at the Imperial Hospital for quite some time, and the matter has caused quite a stir. It's inevitable that the people behind Director Li will hear some rumors."

There was no need to be too blunt; Mu Yue believed that Kangxi would understand.

Kangxi was not angry because Muyue suddenly spoke up. On the contrary, he felt that her personality was just like his own, and he liked her even more.

He scooped Mu Yue up in his arms gently, but his words carried a hint of pressure, "Liang Ruhai, I'm leaving this matter to you. I don't want it to end like last time!"

Liang Ruhai was worried about how to redeem himself and regain Kangxi's trust.

Upon hearing this, he immediately realized that his opportunity had arrived.

He excitedly crawled on his knees to Kangxi's side, "This servant obeys!"

Emperor Kangxi, not wanting to say more, waved his hand, signaling Liang Ruhai to leave first to investigate the matter.

Then, his gaze swept over the people scattered on the ground.

"With so many people in the Imperial Hospital, not a single one of them noticed Dr. Li's underhanded tactics. You are all truly my good servants!"

"Since your eyes can't see what they should see, you might as well not have anything at all!"

These words caused the already terrified crowd to tremble even more.

They all wished they could skin Zhang Hai alive and tear him apart for exposing the whole thing!

"Your Majesty, I have something to report regarding Imperial Censor Li. Please grant me a chance to redeem myself through meritorious service!"
