Chapter 103

Although Tang Ke felt a bit guilty, he didn't reveal much of it. His eyes flashed a few times before he quickly replied, "Of course not."

With just that one sentence, there was no more explanation.

The corner of Ye Lanjue's eyebrows slightly raised, a trace of a light smile appearing in his eyes.

According to what she had said before, when she had looked at the little princess answering questions, her eyes had blinked too quickly and her answer had been too fast and hasty.

Obviously, she was lying.

It seemed that the woman from that night really was her.

As for the wound on her shoulder, he had asked Godly Doctor Lu about it yesterday. Godly Doctor Lu said that it wasn't impossible to remove a wound like that in a short period of time. For example, changing her skin or peeling her skin was fine.

When he had seen her shoulder yesterday, it had been red, and he had guessed that she had worn it away.

It had to be said that this woman was really ruthless. She was even so ruthless to herself.

Of course, he also knew that the crown prince had found her and told her about that night. As far as he knew, the crown prince had pretended to be the person from that night and that was why she had removed the evidence.

Night Tide thought to himself, if he had told her about this back then, how would her reaction have been?

Would they also fearlessly grind away the evidence and then think of ways to avoid him?

Ye Lan Jue knew that with her personality, the answer should be yes.

If it was him, she would do the same.

She could tell from her attitude towards him now.

"Your Majesty, this commoner wants Imperial Physician Liu to examine this commoner. This commoner doesn't believe this bastard's words." Tang Ke knew in his heart that if he wanted to completely overturn Imperial Physician Li's words, the best way would be to find someone with the most authority to examine her and give her the correct result.

"Alright, Imperial Physician Liu, you have to examine Miss Tang again." Tang Kexin's words were reasonable, so the emperor naturally wouldn't refuse. Moreover, the emperor also wanted to know what was going on.

"Yes!" Imperial Physician Liu acknowledged respectfully, stood up, and walked to stand in front of Tang Kexin.

Everyone's eyes turned to look in that direction. They all wanted to know if Imperial Physician Li was mistaken or if Tang Kexin was lying.

However, at this moment, Tang Ke Xin had taken the initiative and allowed Imperial Physician Liu to examine him in front of everyone. To a certain extent, he had earned everyone's trust.

If he had not been honest and had a clear conscience, he would not have been so confident.

For a moment, the third prince's hand tightened and his heart tensed up. After all, if it was really her, she might have gotten pregnant that night. Now, it had only been a month or so, she might not even know that she was pregnant.

However, Tang Ke's heart was calm and collected, without the slightest bit of worry or anxiety.

Seeing her expression, Night Tide Jue's eyes flashed. Where did this woman get her confidence from?

Had she never thought that she would be pregnant after that night?

However, Imperial Physician Liu finished his examination very quickly and then looked towards the emperor, respectfully reporting, "Reporting to the emperor, Miss Tang isn't pregnant."

As Imperial Physician Liu spoke, he looked at Imperial Physician Li who was sprawled on the ground. He added, "Perhaps it's because Miss Tang's breathing was unstable just now, Imperial Physician Li's examination was wrong."

"Can you misdiagnose your breathing as pregnant because your breathing is unstable? What kind of medical skill is that? " However, Tang Kexin mercilessly exposed him. "He's the imperial physician within the palace. Who knows how many people he'll cause to die from this kind of medical skill?"

Even if this Imperial Physician Li had been ordered by someone, doing such a thing without conscience was absolutely unforgivable. Besides, this was clearly the crown prince's intention. He actually listened to the crown prince, so he must be the crown prince's man.

Thus, if he stayed in the palace, it might harm the empress.

Imperial Physician Liu lowered his head slightly and no longer spoke, because he knew in his heart that it was impossible for him to make a false diagnosis. Imperial Physician Li was clearly slandering Miss Tang.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. This subject was wrong in my diagnosis." Imperial Physician Li might have heard Imperial Physician Liu's words, but a tinge of hope ignited in his heart as he pleaded for mercy to the emperor.

"Imperial Physician Li, if you're wrong, it means that you're a quack doctor. Not to mention that Imperial Physician Li has been in the palace for so many years, he shouldn't have been too mediocre. There's no way he could have broken off his pregnancy, so it's a matter of medical ethics." However, without waiting for the emperor to speak, Tang Kexin's face suddenly darkened as she said this word by word.

The current her was no longer as barbaric as before, no longer as arrogant. She had completely calmed down, but it was as if she had an additional kind of courage that no one could ignore.

Her words rang out word by word and entered everyone's ears, causing the entire hall to quiet down once again.

Tang Kexin's words paused for a moment before she spoke again, "Is a person who doesn't even have medical ethics worthy of being a doctor?"

With one sentence, Imperial Physician Li's body suddenly trembled. He couldn't say anything else about begging for mercy. Instead, he lowered his head in shame.

Even Imperial Physician Liu felt his heart skip a beat, feeling a little ashamed. That's right, as a doctor, the most important thing was medical ethics. But in this palace, how many people were able to fully defend such ethics?

"Right, what did the crown prince want to say just now?" Tang Ke knew that this matter was more or less settled. Then, he suddenly turned to the crown prince and asked in an extremely indifferent manner.

Everyone had clearly heard what the crown prince said. Even if Imperial Physician Liu had proven that her pregnancy was fake, the crown prince's words would still cause a huge misunderstanding.

She didn't want to have anything to do with the crown prince, so it would be best if she could make things clear in front of him.

The crown prince was already upset as he watched the situation develop out of his plan, but now that he heard Tang Kexin's words, his expression clearly darkened. With a bitter tone, he said, "I've forgotten."

"Oh, I forgot. Since I forgot to say that it is not a big deal, but just now, I was really scared by the Crown Prince. I thought he wanted to say that I will be responsible for my daughter, that sort of thing." Tang Ke knew in his heart that if he wanted to completely get rid of everyone's misunderstandings, the best way would be to thoroughly unravel the problem.

At this moment, the crown prince was obviously trying to cover it up. Just now, Imperial Physician Liu had completely overturned Imperial Physician Li's words, so the crown prince had nothing to say.

Tang Ke heart didn't want to leave behind such a danger.

The Crown Prince was stunned when he heard it. His eyes turned dark. He pursed his lips, yet he didn't say anything.

When the crowd heard her direct words, they were all shocked. Even if it was a girl, it would be too embarrassing to say it out loud, yet she said it so naturally in front of so many people?

In the past, when I entered the palace, I rarely met the crown prince, even if I met him, at that time, I didn't know much and I didn't even know how to be polite. After I recovered from my illness, I met the crown prince a few times when I entered the palace. Tang Kexin lightly patted her chest as if she was trying her best to suppress her shock.

He then looked at the crown prince and whispered, "If my words just now are wrong, and if you have offended the crown prince in any way, please forgive me."

At this point, no matter how dissatisfied the crown prince was, he could not say anything. He could only reply with false feelings, "No."

"En, it's good that you didn't. Then I am relieved. Completely relieved." Tang Kexin smiled. It was a smile that was incomparably brilliant and dazzling.

However, in the eyes of the Crown Prince, his smile was extremely dazzling and very hateful.

Of course, in the eyes of the third prince, it was absolutely beautiful.

The Third Prince looked at her and the smile in his eyes became even more pronounced. This woman had easily broken the Crown Prince's plan. She was indeed formidable.

In this way, even if the Crown Prince wanted to create a misunderstanding in the future, it wouldn't be easy to do anything.

"Drag Doctor Li away, a hundred beatings, no treatment allowed, and expel him from the palace." The emperor's eyes narrowed, then he ordered in a cold voice.

"Yes," the guard replied, pulling Imperial Physician Li out from where he'd been lying on the ground.

The staff was rewarded a hundred times, and then the doctor was not allowed to treat her. He was directly expelled from the palace, making it difficult for Imperial Physician Li to keep his life.

However, that was his own fault, and he couldn't blame others.

"Clean up, continue the banquet, don't let that bastard ruin everyone's mood." Following that, the emperor instructed the palace maids. His words at this moment seemed to resemble the words Tang Ke had just said to scold Imperial Physician Li.

No matter what, this matter could be considered to be temporarily over.

Of course, Tang Ke knew in his heart that if she didn't understand medicine, then she would truly be a weak girl from ancient times who didn't understand anything.

The Crown Prince's play was definitely going to happen.

After all, there was the matter of the temple, and Imperial Physician Li checking it out. Normally, people would think they were pregnant first, so Imperial Physician Li had said so. It was most likely true.

This alone was enough to make an ancient woman lose her soul and completely panic. She would have the mentality to think about other things and ignore everything else.

Of course, if she hadn't been certain that she wasn't pregnant, things wouldn't have gone so smoothly. If she hadn't been sure beforehand that she wasn't, she at least wouldn't have had the confidence to let Imperial Physician Liu inspect her in public.

It had to be said that the Crown Prince's move was indeed vicious.

"Your Majesty, this humble daughter has a request. Everyone knows that Miss Tang's illness has already healed. The current Miss Tang is no longer the same as before, and this humble daughter also greatly admires Miss Tang. So, this humble daughter wishes to ask Miss Tang for some advice." Everyone sat down as the banquet began. Feng Qingyan suddenly stood up.

The 'guidance' she spoke of was a 'competition'.

The people of the Great Yuan Dynasty were still considered open and the Emperor was quite easygoing. Moreover, banquets were indeed very dull at times, so competitions like these happened frequently.

Not only were there skirmishes between young misses over talent, there were even written examinations between scholars and sometimes sparring between martial generals.

Therefore, it was normal for Feng Qingyan to make such a request at this moment.

However, the person she wanted to fight was Tang Kexin. The crowd couldn't help but be shocked.

Feng Qingyan was proficient in zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting, and Tang Kexin was probably someone who knew nothing. How could the two of them compare?

It couldn't be compared at all!
