Chapter 922 - Guilty!

Chapter 922: Guilty!

The emperor was furious: “What is the use of raising you people? You always want to invite an outside doctor to treat a disease. Is there still a need to keep you, trash in the imperial hospital?”

Once the emperor finished saying those words, the imperial doctors knelt on the floor.

The emperor looked at Imperial Doctor Xu again and asked: “Didn’t I tell you to go to the Dongfang Mansion to ask? Why? Didn’t you go? Or did Bai Zhi refuse?”

Imperial Doctor Xu was stunned. He knew the emperor was asking this to make someone take responsibility.

“Answering back the emperor, this old doctor went to Dongfang Mansion. I have seen that Miss Bai’s hands are injured and she was sluggish. She wanted to wait for her injury to get better before letting this old doctor make inquiries.”

The emperor frowned. Her hands were hurt? The empress dowager actually hurt Bai Zhi?

No wonder Chu Yan ran into her like that.

Imperial Doctor Xu added: “This old doctor didn’t expect that the empress dowager’s illness would develop so quickly. It is this old doctor’s negligence. I ask the emperor for punishment!”

What’s the use of punishment now? Imperial Doctor Xu didn’t do anything wrong. The mistake was pretty obvious, the empress dowager shouldn’t be so arrogant.

The emperor ignored Imperial Doctor Xu, turned his head, and said to the eunuch on the side: “Go and let Bai Zhi enter the palace to treat the empress dowager.”

The eunuch rushed away and didn’t dare to delay at all.

In Dongfang Mansion.

Bai Zhi was talking with Zhao Lan and Dongfang Wan.

Early this morning, Dongfang Mu announced at the dinner table that after Zhao Lan and Hu Changlin get married, he would take Bai Zhi and Dongfang Wan back to Qiyun Mountain. He would no longer care about the affairs of the court.

Zhao Lan was very reluctant to be separated from Bai Zhi. She pulled her gauze-wrapped hand straight and cried.

Bai Zhi smiled and looked at her with a smile and held back her tears: “Mother, it’s not like I am dying. I am just going back to Qiyun Mountain. If you miss me, you send me a letter and I will come to visit you.”

Dongfang Wan also said: “Yes, it’s just a few days of travel. If you miss her, you can also do the same. You can come with Hu Dage and live in Qiyun Mountain. It’s all our own home.”

The three of them were talking, and suddenly a maidservant ran in and said, “Miss, there is someone from the palace, saying that you should enter the palace quickly.”

Bai Zhi snorted: “It seems that the empress dowager is ill.”

Dongfang Wan frowned: “She caused you to be like this, but she still has the face to ask you come for treatment?”

Bai Zhi shook her head: “I’m afraid it’s not her, it should be the emperor. This time, even if she can get her life back, I’m afraid that her condition is not good, so they ask me to come and see!”

If that old woman didn’t embarrass her yesterday, she might really find a way for her to recover. But at this time, even if she has two wonderful books in her hands, she can’t do anything.

She was doomed to have hemiplegia.

Who can she blame?

She got up, quickly changed her clothes, followed the maidservant out to accept the order, and immediately followed the eunuch into the palace.

In the Cifu Palace, the imperial doctors were kneeling on the floor. When they saw Bai Zhi was coming, they quickly backed down and gave way to her.

They have never hoped that a foreign doctor can cure a disease they cannot cure. Only when the empress dowager is cured can they have the hope to live and survive in the imperial hospital.

The emperor was sitting by the bed. When he saw Bai Zhi approaching and bowing, he immediately waved his hand: “No need to be polite, come and see the empress dowager.”

This was the first time that the emperor and Bai Zhi have seen each other. As everyone said, she had a pair of Dongfang family eyes, which were indeed very similar to Dongfang Mu.

No wonder Chu Yan and Chu Feng like this girl.

Bai Zhi stepped forward to checked the empress dowager’s pulse. Her pulsed was very chaotic. It has no stable rhythm. Sometimes it skipped a bit or stopped.

The emperor looked at Bai Zhi’s hand. It was wrapped in gauze, showing only small fingers. Even the exposed small fingers have an unusual color.

The empress dowager was really too much this time, she was just a little girl.
