Mo Yunchen’s face darkened, “What? You don’t listen to orders either?”
As for Mo Yunchen, the thing he feared most during all these years imprisoned was that his former subordinates had changed their hearts and no longer looked up to him. So when he heard his confidant say that Mo Junshi couldn’t die yet, the anger in his heart was more intense than ever before.
If this close confidant cannot make his reasons clear, then today his life will be forfeit.
He Moyunchen doesn’t need these disobedient people around him.
Those close to him naturally understood the fury hidden in Mo Yunchen’s words. He quickly said, “Your Highness, I just went to find Doctor Liu. He told me about your condition, Your Highness. There is poison in your body.”
“!”
Mo Yunchen suddenly froze. When he reacted, his voice was incredibly incredulous, “What…do you mean? I’m poisoned?”
His confidant nodded. “Yes, Doctor Liu has confirmed that Your Highness has been poisoned. The reason why your concubines’ pregnancies have remained still is because of the poison in your body.”
“…”
It was only then that Mo Yunchen realized this, no wonder he always felt that something was amiss recently.
Having been reminded by those around him, he naturally realized what was wrong.
He favored those people for a long time. If one or two of them didn’t get pregnant, he could blame the women. But the women found by his people numbered in the dozens.
He had scarcely ever slept alone at night, yet after all his toil, he had no children.
If it weren’t for Mo Junyi’s resemblance to him, he might even suspect that Mo Junyi wasn’t his.
Mo Yunchen fell silent for a moment, and even his confidant dared not interrupt his thoughts.
After an unknown amount of time, Mo Yunchen suddenly slammed the teacup on the table to the ground.
“He’s so cunning, he must have poisoned me long ago to make sure I’d have no children!”
Mo Yunchen gritted his teeth and said these words, the “he” in his mouth being the emperor who had kept him imprisoned for years.
The emperor, in his determination to crush any thought of his ascension to that position, truly spared no effort.
After finishing his words, Mo Yunchen looked at his confidant, “Summon Dr. Liu.”
“Yes.”
Before leaving, Mox Yunchen added, “Besides Doctor Liu, call all the doctors in the army. Also, secretly send someone to find a doctor from Shenyi Valley. Find any famous doctors and healers in the martial arts world, bring them all to me.”
His confidante immediately agreed, saying “Yes.” Even if Mo Yunchen hadn’t instructed him to do so, he would have done it anyway.
No matter what, they wouldn’t stand idly by and watch their master die.
Soon, Dr. Liu and the other soldiers arrived at Mo Yunchen’s place. Dr. Liu had mentally prepared himself; he wasn’t surprised to meet Mo Yunchen’s extremely gloomy eyes when he entered.
Mo Yunchen’s gloomy eyes stared at Dr. Liu, saying word by word, “Is this palace truly poisoned?”
Dr. Liu nodded slightly, “According to my observations of Your Highness’s pulse over these past few days, there is indeed poison in your body. However, this poison is quite tricky, and ordinary diagnoses really cannot detect it.”
“Doctor Liu, since you have already diagnosed that there is poison in this palace’s body, have you found a cure?”
When it came to treating the matter, Dr. Liu knelt down and said, “My abilities are insufficient. After several months of research, I still haven’t been able to accurately diagnose what poison is plaguing Your Highness.”
Upon hearing this, Mo Yunchen’s face grew even darker. He remained silent, leaving everyone wondering what he would do next.
After a while, Mo Yunchen’s eyes suddenly became incredibly sharp, staring fixedly at Dr. Liu, “This isn’t the first time you’ve come into contact with the Crown Prince, does he have the same poison as this Palace?”
If that person truly wanted him to have no children and grandchildren, they wouldn’t let Mo Junshi go so easily.
The poison within him, perhaps Mo Junyi also possesses it.
<Physician Liu frowned. He didn't understand why the Crown Prince would mention this, but he still shook his head, "The Crown Prince's health has always been taken care of by…the Princess Consort of Beijng. Before the Princess Consort returned to Beijing, I never had a chance to check his pulse."
Mo Yunchen narrowed his eyes slightly. With Liu’s reminder, he did remember An Xuetang.
Although the woman’s medical skills were strange, he couldn’t deny her proficiency in medicine.
After all, it was she who had personally reattached his severed arm.
Perhaps she had known all along that there was poison within her, but she deliberately chose not to say anything and refused to have him heal her.
And everything she did, without a doubt, was for Mo Junyi.
It seems her care for Mo Junyi exceeds his imagination.
Mo Yunchen’s lips curled up slightly, a hint of calculation in his eyes. He suddenly turned to his confidant and said, “Go get the Young Master here.”
The close confidant bowed and responded, “Yes,” then immediately turned and left.
Mo Yunchen’s eyes, which couldn’t see any emotion, stared at Dr. Liu and suddenly said in a meaningful way, “If Mo Junyi doesn’t have this kind of toxin in his body, can you find a way to make Mo Junyi get the same poison?”
“!”
Dr. Liu, listening to the prince’s words with not a hint of jest, was left speechless, his mouth slightly agape as he struggled to process what he had heard.
