Everyone knelt and greeted, “Ninth Prince!”
As they looked closer, they saw that he was accompanied by Su Yingxue. The expressions of the officials in the court were not too pleasant, but none of them dared to stand up in front of Chu Yihan.
However, some of them were very aggrieved.
For example, Su Dingheng.
Did he just kneel to his daughter?
How awkward!
As Su Yingxue walked past him, he originally intended to stand up. However, he sensed Chu Yihan’s sharp gaze sweep past him, his legs went limp, and his knees thudded heavily on the ground again.
Father’s leg really hurt!
For the first time, Chu Mingyuan couldn’t control his expression in front of the officials. “Chu Yihan! You are outrageous!”
If he had a weapon in his hand, he would definitely stab Chu Yihan with his sword!
He was rebelling against his superiors!
“You disregarded your prestigious status, entered the epidemic zone alone, and now… You actually dared to spread this disease to the imperial court. Do you want to destroy the Great Cheng Dynasty!” Chu Mingyuan reprimanded sternly.
If it was said that he feared and respected Chu Yihan in the past, it was now a bone-deep hatred for him. He wanted nothing more than to immediately behead Chu Yihan and show him to the public.
Chu Chengye quickly retreated to the side and covered his mouth and nose with his hand. “Imperial uncle, stop! If you take another step forward, I will order the imperial guards to show you no mercy.”
“What right do you have to speak to me like this?” Chu Yihan reprimanded his nephew and gave him a backhand slap, causing him to vomit blood.
“Pfft!”
Chu Chengye felt a sharp pain in his heart.
“Imperial… Imperial uncle, are you crazy?”
Chu Jinling didn’t move away from Chu Yihan to maintain a distance. He was indeed shocked.
Su Yingxue looked at his adorable head and stroked his hair. “Your imperial uncle is fine. He’s doing very well!”
“That’s good.” Chu Jinling heaved a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, he was fine!
“Eh, imperial uncle was infected with an illness and was cured?” Chu Jinling was the first to react, and his eyes lit up.
“What? Cured?”
“This is the deadly plague!”
“Could it be that poison doctor Saint Ruan has returned? He had resolved the calamity of the Jiang Du City?”
The officials discussed animatedly. They were no longer afraid of Chu Yihan approaching them.
“Emperor, it’s a blessing for our Great Cheng Dynasty that His Highness’s body has recovered!” Su Dingheng took the opportunity to flatter and the civil officials followed suit.
Chu Mingyuan’s heartbeat slowed down as he looked at Chu Yihan suspiciously. “Are you truly cured? Or are you here for revenge in the court?”
“Does Imperial Brother think that everyone is like you, only capable of burning down the medical center?” Chu Yihan’s eyes were filled with contempt. He had no intention of respecting Chu Mingyuan as the emperor.
Chu Mingyuan restrained his temper and waved his dragon robe. “Summon the court physician! If you are not unharmed, 1 will impose the severest punishment on you!”
Chu Mingyuan, who had always cared for the people and the court officials, desperately hoped that Chu Yihan still had the deadly plague. It would give them a reason to have him executed cruelly, even if it meant paying a significant cost!
The court physician arrived very quickly. He cowered and checked Chu Yihan’s pulse. When he found no abnormalities, he relieved kowtowed to Chu Mingyuan. “Reporting to the emperor, His Highness is unharmed! His Highness is unharmed!”
With no deadly plague on him, everyone in the Hall of Diligent Government heaved a sigh of relief.
The civil and military officials all knelt and shouted, “God bless our Great Cheng Dynasty! God bless the emperor!”
There was no joy in Chu Mingyuan’s eyes. He could feel the hostility in Chu Yihan’s gaze.
Chu Yihan knew that the moment he entered the medical center, Chu Mingyuan had the intention to burn the medical center down. However, with the civil and military officials vehemently opposing, it wasn’t until today that he could give the order to set the clinic on fire. Yet, he didn’t expect….
