Chapter 236 - Chapter 236: Fire the Medical Center Chapter 236: Fire the Medical Center
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Perhaps she had real skills, but how did she manage to infect Lai San with the terrifying infectious disease that haunted people ten years ago?
In the Hall of Diligent Government, Chu Mingyuan listened as Liang Jin reported the events at Su Yingxue’s clinic. His thick black brows furrowed together like looming peaks.
“Minister Liang, is it true that there is an infectious disease in Su Yingxue’s clinic?”
Liang Jin held the jade board in his hand and his expression was solemn. “I received a confidential report and sent someone to Tongchang Medical Center to investigate. The door of the medical center was tightly shut. Su Yingxue had already dismissed some of the people in the medical center and ordered them to burn incense with mugwort. They were also shut at home and were not allowed to go out.”
“There was another group of people in Tongchang Medical Center. According to those who went to the clinic that day, Tongchang Medical Center had treated a beggar covered in pus and wounds that day. The symptoms of that person were exactly the same as the deadly plague in Ye City ten years ago!”
The words “deadly plague” were like a clap of thunder that exploded in the court.
“Deadly plague? This… This was a deadly infectious disease! How can it appear in Jiang Du City!”
“Your Majesty, please quickly isolate the people in Tongchang Medical Center. Don’t let them spread the disease!”
“This deadly plague can take lives! Su Yingxue’s so-called medical center is nothing but a Yama’s Palace!”
The courtiers were in a state of anxiety and discussing animatedly.
Su Dingheng, who was standing in the court, became the target of everyone’s attacks. He was pierced like a sieve by the gazes of the civil officials and generals.
However, he couldn’t say a word. He could only lower his head and curse silently, “This troublesome rebellious daughter. I should strangle her to death as soon as possible!”
She had caused him so much trouble!
“Father, the plan now is to think about how to treat this deadly plague. If it can’t be treated, it won’t be too late to punish the people from Tongchang Medical Center,” Chu Chengye suggested.
He was the prince that Chu Mingyuan valued the most. Chu Mingyuan was not satisfied with his answer. “The deadly plague from ten years ago was cured by the poison doctor, Saint Ruan. Do you know where he is now?””
Chu Chengye choked. “I… I don’t know.”
However, he remembered that it was Chu Yihan who had invited the poison doctor to cure the disease in Ye City back then.
If this matter was handed over to Chu Yihan, he could also handle it well. However, he didn’t want to take credit for Chu Yihan!
Chu Jinling wasn’t as petty as him. He shouted bluntly, “Imperial Father, Ninth Imperial Uncle knows! Ten years ago, he was the one who found the poison doctor and resolved Ye City’s crisis!”
Chu Mingyuan didn’t blame Chu Jinling for being straightforward. It was because he didn’t want his Ninth Brother to show his face again.
Ten years ago, he had already established his status as an immortal in the hearts of the people. If he were to find the poison doctor again this time, he would gain even more popular support. How could he maintain his imperial position?
Liang Jin also knew about this, so he secretly looked at Chu Yihan, hoping that this master would give him some reaction.
However, Chu Yihan was dressed in a moon-white brocade robe and held a jade pendant in his hand. He stood there as handsome as a statue. His clear stance was evident, “It’s none of my business, and I won’t get involved.”
Chu Mingyuan waved his sleeves coldly. “The problem originated from Tongchang Medical Center. If we want to stop the deadly plague from spreading, burn Tongchang Medical Center!”
The court was in an uproar.
Most of the people supported Chu Mingyuan’s decision, as people are inherently selfish. What was wrong with sacrificing others in exchange for the peace of their own family?
Only a few upright courtiers whispered, “Isn’t it too cruel to burn down the medical center without providing any treatment?”
“Yeah, there are still lives inside! That Dr. Su is a rare female doctor. She even treated my wife’s illness!”
“She treated my daughter’s illness too!”
The Useless Miracle Doctor Consort Is Spoiled Rotten by the Prince!
