Chapter 214: The Empress Dowager is in Trouble
Chapter 214: The Empress Dowager is in Trouble
Faced with her questioning, and with the Imperial Guards watching him from all sides, Lin Yecheng naturally denied it. He frowned at the person in front of him and said coldly, "Don't talk nonsense!"
He clutched his chest angrily and accused, "You must have been too careless and mixed up the pills! I checked your treatment process just now, and it was correct!"
At this point, Lin Yecheng exclaimed in exasperation, "Why couldn't you have been a little more careful? If you had been that way, you wouldn't have been so careless, and you wouldn't have ended up like this!"
Song Miqiu was so shocked that she couldn't speak. She looked at the person in front of her and realized that he was clearly not the same person as Lin Yecheng, who had come with her earlier.
Lin Yecheng didn't look at Song Miqiu at all. He looked at the Imperial Guards and said with a serious expression, "Since Song Miqiu caused this accident, and I am the head of the Imperial Medical Academy, I naturally have to take responsibility."
"I am willing to treat the Empress Dowager again in Song Miqiu's place! To help the Empress Dowager recover!"
The Imperial Guards didn't care about their previous schemes; all they knew was that they had to handle official business and that it was their responsibility to imprison the man.
As for Lin Yecheng...
He glanced at Lin Yecheng from head to toe and said coldly, "I don't care what you want to do, but you'd better not cause trouble in the palace."
Upon hearing this, Lin Yecheng folded his hands in front of his chest, nodded vigorously, and smiled in response, "Of course I know."
"Hey……"
Seeing that there was still hope, Song Miqiu looked at the Imperial Guards and said, "Sir, I have truly been wronged. Please give me a chance to find the real culprit, and then you can arrest him."
The Imperial Guard completely ignored Song Miqiu's words. He gave Song Miqiu a cold look and said in a deep voice, "If everyone were like you, wouldn't we all have to give way?"
"If we can't catch them, what will we do if the Emperor blames us? Besides, you were specifically asked by Granny Hua to be taken. Do you think there's any chance you'll be allowed to leave?"
Seeing that Song Miqiu wanted to say something more, the leader of the Imperial Guards waved his hand impatiently at the people behind him and shoved Song Miqiu toward the prison.
Seeing that Song Miqiu was still very reluctant to leave, he said coldly, "We're only refraining from attacking you because of your age. If you dare to dawdle any longer, be careful, we won't be polite!"
Upon hearing this, Song Miqiu immediately stood up straight and followed them into the prison.
She knew that the Imperial Guards always kept their word, and she had previously witnessed how they exposed themselves and took people to prison.
Song Miqiu did not want to be treated that way.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, the jailer finally pointed to a cell and lazily said to Song Miqiu, "This is your cell."
At the same time, the jailer took out his key, opened the cell door, and let Song Miqiu in after checking her body.
Perhaps seeing that Song Miqiu was walking too slowly, the jailer impatiently gave Song Miqiu a hard shove in the back, and Song Miqiu staggered forward.
She lost her balance and was pushed to the ground by the jailer.
Song Miqiu felt like her buttocks were about to burst open. She rubbed her buttocks in pain and glared at the jailer in front of her. She really didn't expect the other party to be so impolite!
Thinking back to the Imperial Guards earlier, although they had been threatening him, they had at least been mindful of his health and hadn't done anything wrong.
But this jailer was different; he pushed hard against his back!
If someone were to actually appear who is about the same age as me, I certainly wouldn't be able to handle it.
Thinking of this, Song Miqiu gritted her teeth. She looked around the cell, feeling very panicked.
This is her second time in this cell. The first time she was in prison, her body couldn't take it anymore. Now, coming back... it might directly endanger her life.
Thinking about how she had been imprisoned twice, once because of Consort Lin's pregnancy and the other because of the Empress Dowager, Song Miqiu couldn't help but suspect that she had a grudge against the royal family from time to time.
Almost all the accidents happened because of them.
But then she thought about it again and realized that this matter must be related to Lin Yecheng.
Thinking of Lin Yecheng's smug look before she was carried away, Song Miqiu felt extremely annoyed.
She muttered to herself for a while, regretting her carelessness. She should have opened all the medicine bottles and smelled them to make sure they contained the correct pills before treating others.
Thinking of this, Song Miqiu let out a breath, her beautiful eyes reddening. She sat alone in the corner, looking at the dimly lit prison cell, feeling very melancholy.
I don't know if I'll be able to get out of prison again this time.
Inside the Cining Palace.
Just as Lin Yecheng arrived with his medicine kit, he saw Granny Hua standing at the door. He walked over, puzzled, and asked, "Granny Hua, aren't you going in to take care of the Empress Dowager?"
Hearing the voice, Granny Hua looked up and saw it was Lin Yecheng. She waved her hand, frowned, and looked at him, saying, "You came really fast."
Lin Yecheng knew the other person was mocking him, but he pretended not to hear it. Just as Lin Yecheng was about to walk around Granny Hua to check on the Empress Dowager's condition, a hand reached out and blocked his way.
"Granny Hua, what is this..." Lin Yecheng looked at Granny Hua's arm, but did not say everything he was thinking. Instead, he gestured to her with his eyes.
Since Granny Hua was someone close to the Empress Dowager, she would certainly not allow the Empress Dowager's life to be in danger.
"What are you going in for?" Granny Hua asked, puzzled.
This confused Lin Yecheng. He pointed to the bedroom behind Granny Hua and said, "Your humble servant is here to treat the Empress Dowager. Now that Song Miqiu has been taken away, as the head of the academy, it is only natural that I have to come and deal with it."
Lin Yecheng spoke with great confidence, but just as he was about to go in, Granny Hua stopped him.
She looked at the person in front of her impatiently, gestured with her chin towards the location of the palace, and said in a deep voice, "Don't go in and disturb her. Imperial Physician Ming is treating Her Majesty inside right now. Wouldn't you be disrupting things if you went in?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Yecheng was extremely displeased. He hadn't expected that someone would seize the initiative while he was just going back to the Imperial Hospital to get his medicine kit, and that person was none other than Ming Taicheng!
At the same time, seeing that Granny Hua was looking at him impatiently, Lin Yecheng's dissatisfaction reached its peak!
Ming Taicheng was clearly coming here on purpose to steal credit from me. I had something to do today and couldn't come, so he reluctantly accompanied Song Miqiu. But now that the Empress Dowager has an accident, he can come to claim credit.
