Chapter 205 - 205 Poisoned
205 Poisoned
Unexpectedly, Yun Ran took the initiative to link this matter to the packrat.
This made it seem as though someone wanted to use the Sixteenth Princess’s death to frame their little packrat.
The emperor had no choice but to summon the Imperial Physician.
Fortunately, he had already arranged for his trusted aide to come.
The Imperial Physician examined the Sixteenth Princess’ body, then cupped his hands and replied, “The cause of death is strange. I’ve been a physician for so many years, but I’ve never seen such a cause of death. There are no serious injuries on the outside, but she spat out blood, as if… as if…”
The emperor said angrily, “What does it look like? Hurry up and say it. Don’t hide it!”
The Imperial Physician continued, “I feel that Princess Sixteen seems to have suffered a very serious internal injury. It should have been done by an expert with an extremely high cultivation level since she can kill people in such an invisible manner!”
The Emperor asked again, “How high is the cultivation level of an expert?”
The Imperial Physician replied respectfully, “I think that ordinary cultivation can’t do it. It has to be at the Saint Realm…”
Yun Ran knew very well that the two Saint Realm cultivators present were Mo Beiyuan and Sweetcake.
The Imperial Physician was just short of saying their names.
Yun Ran was protective. Be it Mo Beiyuan or Sweetcake, they were all her people!
She had to protect her people.
But before she could speak, a crisp and childish voice said, “She didn’t die of internal injuries. She was poisoned.”
It was her Bun.
In this situation, Bun’s voice was like a thunderclap. After it exploded, the scene became even more chaotic.
The emperor and the Imperial Doctor also looked at him in unison.
“This is an adult’s business. Why are you talking so much?”
The emperor was displeased not because a little child like Bun was impolite and did not know the difference between seniority and inferiority in front of him, but because he was right. The Sixteenth Princess had really died from poisoning. The Emperor flew into a rage out of humiliation.
Bun wasn’t afraid of his majesty. His gaze was cold and steady as he turned to look at the emperor. His gaze seemed to be saying that he had seen through everything.
The emperor felt uncomfortable being stared at by a little child.
“The Imperial Physician said that the Sixteenth Princess died of internal injuries. Could it be that a child like you is more powerful than my Imperial Physician?”
Bun raised his little hand and pointed at Princess Sixteen’s corpse on the ground. He said it word by word in a steady voice, “Internal injuries won’t cause her lips to turn black. She won’t convulse all over before she died. There’s also white foam mixed with blood flowing from the corner of her mouth. This is clearly a sign of poisoning. Your Imperial Physician is really incompetent. You can’t even tell such obvious symptoms.”
The Imperial Physician’s face turned red. He originally thought that he only needed to tell a lie according to His Majesty’s request. He did not expect to be exposed by a little child in public and even have his medical skills questioned.
As Mo Beiyuan was carrying the little packrat, he could not approach this side. He could only get Thunderbolt to convey his words. “King Yuan said that if an Imperial Physician can’t determine the cause of death, he can go and find everyone from the Imperial Hospital. Someone will be able to find the real cause of death. We can’t let the Sixteenth Princess die in vain.”
The Emperor’s expression was extremely ugly. If he found other physicians, those people would definitely be able to tell that the Sixteenth Princess had died from poisoning. Then, this matter could only be let go.
The trap he had set up was meaningless.
However, if he did get find other physicians, Mo Beiyuan would not let the matter rest.
He had no choice but to stop the damage in time.
He gave the Imperial Physician a look. “Since the Yuan King has said so, take a closer look and see if the Sixteenth Princess really died from poisoning.”
