Godly Farmer Doctor: Arrogant Husband, Can’t Afford to Offend! - Chapter 872

Gu Li sighed and said: “The emperor, Miss Bai is the granddaughter of Master Dongfang and the fiancée of Prince Jin. It is said that she has learned superb medical skills and can cure incurable diseases. A girl like her is extremely smart. I really can’t figure out why would she drugged Prince Xiao in the empress’s palace.”

“Furthermore, with her medical skills, even if she wants to drugged people, it’s impossible to drugged someone like this, where people can easily point her out. Wouldn’t it be equivalent to digging her own grave? Prince Xiao is a prince. What is the crime of murdering the prince? Wouldn’t she know this?”

Seeing the emperor frowning and being silent, Gu Li continued to say: “The emperor, in fact, if you want to know the ins and outs of this matter. It’s not difficult at all. You can call a few people over for questioning, and you’ll know the answer soon.”

Gu Li couldn’t figure it out. Why does the emperor refuse to see the clear facts? The facts were clearly in front of him. Why does he pretend he cannot see the fact before his eyes?

The emperor raised his eyes and looked at Gu Li with doubt: “Since when did you become Prince Jin’s person?”

Gu Li was startled, and then busily kowtowed on the floor: “The emperor, this old slave has always been the emperor’s person.”

The emperor frowned his eyebrows and looked at the trembling Gu Li, who was kneeling. His heart was furious. Even if he was not from Prince Jin, how could he say those words to him? When did he become confused? How could he not understand it?

“Okay, retreat!” The emperor didn’t want to see him anymore. A young eunuch came in and waited for the emperor to speak.

“You look at me, what’s your name?” The emperor asked.

The eunuch busily replied: “Answering back the emperor, this slave is Cheng Guang.”

The emperor nodded and asked, “Cheng Guang, have you heard about Qingan Palace?”

Cheng Guang nodded: ” Answering back the emperor, this slave heard about it.”

“What do you think?” The emperor asked.

Cheng Guang was taken aback, he looked at the eyes of the emperor and said: “What does this slave, think? This slave doesn’t understand.”

The emperor became impatient at this time, and said in a deep voice: “Prince Jin smashed Qingan Palace, how do you think I should punish him?”

Cheng Guang quickly kowtowed as he trembled with fear: “The emperor, the emperor, this slave doesn’t understand this. Please forgive this slave, your majesty.” Just kidding, why would he dare to say a word about it? He was not in the position to say anything. Besides, who knows what the emperor would like to hear? Does he want to protect Prince Jin? Or does he want to demote him? Once he makes a mistake, the consequences would be unimaginable.

When the emperor saw the eunuch like this, he immediately lost interest. He waved his hand and said: “You go out and let Gu Li come in.”

After a while, Gu Li came in again, stood on the side respectfully, and didn’t say anything.

This time, the emperor couldn’t bear it and took the initiative to ask Gu Li: “You said before that if I want to know the ins and outs of this matter, I only need to let a few people come and ask questions, right?”

Gu Li nodded his head: “Yes, a few people from the Qingaan Palace, the imperial doctors of the Imperial Hospital, and a few people from the Ruyi Palace, should be questioned.”

The emperor said: “Alright I will leave this matter to you. You look for the people, I will ask them.”

When Gu Li retired, he immediately went out with two little eunuchs.

When Guli came back, he brought two palace maids from the Qingaan Palace, two palace maids from the Ruyi Palace, and as well as Imperial Doctor Zhang and Imperial Doctor Zhong from the Imperial Hospital.

The emperor asked them to separate them into a group for interrogations. The palace maid and the Mama of the Qing’an Palace were first left behind.

“Speak, did Bai Zhi went to Qingan Palace on her own, or did the empress invited her?” The emperor looked and stared at them coldly.

The palace maid trembled as she replied: “Yes, it was Miss Bai who came by herself. She said she wanted to check the empress’s pulse.”

The emperor looked at the silent Mama and asked: “Why don’t you speak?”
