Chapter 488: Burn the Cauldrons (Part )
"Prince Lie is in such a critical condition, Ye Chutang cannot escape the blame!"

Chu Qiyuan glanced at him and said, "You said this because you are absolutely sure that everything was caused by Ye Chutang?"

"I--"

Of course Zhou Kangxue had no evidence, so he couldn't say anything for sure, but he still held on to it.

"My humble servant's ability is limited, so I dare not say this, but this is the fact. If it weren't for the medicine Ye Chutang mentioned, how could King Lie be in a coma?"

Chu Qiyuan said calmly: "If it weren't for her, King Lie might not even be able to leave the hunting ground."

"This……"

Zhou Kangxue smiled, but couldn't think of any rebuttal.

Back then in the royal hunting ground, when Xiao Chengqi was poisoned, it was Ye Chutang who stepped forward and saved his life.

"If Miss Ye Er really had the intention to harm others, she could have just done nothing in the first place. Wouldn't that have saved her trouble?"

Zhou Kangxue was speechless after hearing these words, and finally he could only make up his mind: "Even if she didn't mean it, His Highness's condition worsened because of the medicine she proposed, so she has to-"

Emperor Mu Wu interrupted him and asked, "Who is taking care of Cheng Qi now?"

Chu Qiyuan said: "Miss Ye went to Prince Lie's mansion early this morning and took over the care of His Royal Highness Prince Lie from Doctor Zhao."

Zhou Kangxue wanted to say something else, but when he saw Emperor Mu Wu's expression from the corner of his eye, he trembled twice and swallowed his words.

Emperor Mu Wu obviously did not completely believe what he had just said, but as long as the seeds of doubt were planted, they would explode sooner or later.

If Xiao Chengqi couldn't wake up, Emperor Mu Wu would definitely be anxious.

By then, someone will have to be chosen to bear his wrath—maybe it will be Ye Chutang?

Chu Qiyuan continued, "I gave His Highness medicine yesterday, but it is still unknown when he will wake up."

Emperor Muwu thought for a moment before asking, "What medicine did you use? Where's Ye Chutang? Didn't she say anything?"

"Nothing."

Chu Qiyuan shook his head.

"Zhao Xuanping and Miss Ye Er have both read the prescription and used it without objection. Originally, I thought that asking Miss Ye Er to diagnose His Highness might help him wake up. But she said that there is residual poison in His Highness' body and his qi and blood are both deficient. It is not the right time to use needles. He must take care of his body before using needles."

Emperor Mu Wu was not aware of all this, but he trusted Chu Qiyuan the most. Seeing Chu Qiyuan defending Ye Chutang in his words, and his illness was also cured by Ye Chutang, he was more inclined to believe that Ye Chutang was fine.

But he couldn't be completely relieved as long as Xiao Chengqi didn't wake up.

"Since you already have a solution, let's do it this way. Go check Rong Fei's pulse later. She is worried and anxious. I think she will get sick again."

"The minister obeys the order."

Emperor Mu Wu looked at Zhou Kangxue and others again.

"Okay, stop kneeling here and go back home."

Zhou Kangxue was stunned: "Your Majesty, then, then Ye——"

"Nothing has been determined yet. It won't be too late to wait until Cheng Qi wakes up!"

Emperor Mu Wu's tone left no room for doubt. Zhou Kangxue was shocked, cold sweat immediately broke out on his back, and he quickly bowed his head.

"Yes!"

……

After walking out of the imperial study, Chu Qiyuan was about to go straight to Rong Fei, but was stopped by Zhou Kangxue.

"Please stay, Judge Chu." Chu Qiyuan said expressionlessly, "What's the matter?"

Zhou Kangxue smiled and said, "Nothing, I'm just a little curious. The judge doesn't seem to be familiar with Ye Chutang, so why is he speaking for her like this?"

Chu Qiyuan narrowed his eyes and said, "I just told the truth. Your Majesty hasn't even convicted her yet. Why do you think it's all her fault?"

Zhou Kangxue was startled: "That's not what I meant!"

This happened in the palace! If someone heard such rebellious words, he would not be able to survive!

Chu Qiyuan didn't want to pay any more attention to him, so he just got up and walked away.

"Hey--"

Zhou Kangxue felt ashamed after being treated so coldly by him.

When several imperial doctors saw Chu Qi walking away, they stepped forward and advised: "Master Zhou, Chu Yuanpan must be tired after a night of sleep, so he is like this, please don't mind..."

Zhou Kangxue snorted coldly.

"He's the envoy of the academy! How dare I have a problem with him!?"

Several people looked at each other and dared not persuade him anymore.

Zhou Kangxue comes from a family of doctors and has long been eyeing the position of Minister of the Court. However, Chu Qiyuan is deeply trusted by the emperor and has remained unchanged for all these years.

Zhou Kangxue had long disliked him.

"Do you really think I don't know? A few days ago, Ye Chutang came to visit us in person! She said she was here to treat her mute sister. Who knows if there is any interest between them?"

Several people were so eager to step forward and cover their mouths: "Master Zhou! Don't dare to say such things without evidence!"

As soon as Zhou Kangxue said this, he realized that he had said something wrong. He looked around and saw that the palace people were keeping a distance from him and did not follow him, so he waved his sleeves in annoyance.

"I want to see if they can save King Lie!"

……

Ye Chutang didn't know about the debate in the palace, but even if she knew, she wouldn't care.

——She has been too busy recently.

Emperor Mu Wu's situation had just improved, and it was Xiao Chengqi's turn.

After repeated assurances, A Yan was persuaded to return to the Imperial College, and Ye Chutang immediately went to Prince Lie's Mansion to take care of him.

Xiao Chengqi still showed no intention of waking up.

Ye Chutang was not in a hurry either - if His Royal Highness the King Lie was willing to burn his boats, then she would be happy to cooperate.

What's more, there are people who are more anxious than her.

……

Prison Department of Punishment.

Xiao Chengxuan waited for a long time, but instead of being released, he received the news that Jiang Zhaoyuan had stepped down.

"No one can protect you now, so I advise you to tell the truth."

Su Wei personally interrogated him again, and the pressure was overwhelming.

"Have you ever collaborated with the enemy and betrayed your country?!"
