The Famous Detective of the Red Mansion

Chapter 447



Although slightly lipped, it extinguished Liu Fang's aura and increased his prestige.

After Sun Shaozong sat down on the last chair, he inexplicably felt a little uneasy, and this feeling of unease came from Zhao Rongheng's ancient and undisturbed face.

Just now, when Zhao Rongheng stepped forward to help Liu Fang, Sun Shaozong thought he would take advantage of the situation and attack him a few times. After all, as one of the leaders of the speech official, his mouthgun skills should at least be at the level of ”proficiency.”

However, Zhao Rongheng only advised Liu Fang to be calm and even apologized on behalf of Liu Fang. Throughout the process, there was no trace of anger, and even Cabinet Xu sitting in the middle seemed to be a bit less calm than him.

This calmness was truly extraordinary!

Should it be that…

He didn’t want to stand out for Prince Beijing?

Wasn’t it said in the public that Prince Beijing’s, Shuirong, was actually his illegitimate son with the Eldest Princess?!

Or…

What magic weapon did he have to win, which was why he was so calm and composed?

Sun Shaozong was scratching his heart with a hundred claws here, but Cabinet Xu had already turned to Qin Ming, the envoy of the Imperial Clinic, and solemnly bowed his hand and said, "Please, Envoy.”

“I dare not accept such a big honor.”

Qin Ming stood up and returned a salute, also with a solemn expression on his face. "Sharing the worries of the country is my duty as a vassal.”

Before the words could be finished, four imperial physicians stood up in the hall and said in unison, "We were originally sharing the worries of the state.”

The sound of ”sharing worries for the country” made Sun Shaozong feel relieved. He secretly believed that the Imperial Doctors sent by Emperor Guangde to treat his son's injuries were all staunch ”royalists.”

And this was also an important basis for Sun Shaozong to dare to call a deer a horse!

However, while the attention of the public was focused on the five imperial physicians, Sun Shaozong subconsciously turned his gaze to Zhao Rongheng.

And…

He found a hint of mockery in the corner of Zhao Rongheng's mouth!

Oh no!

“Wait a moment.”

Almost as Sun Shaozong exclaimed in his heart, Zhao Rongheng finally spoke slowly and said, “This matter is of great importance. Why don't we recommend another famous doctor and consult with Doctor Qin and others?”

It was such a simple approach?

If that was the case, he overestimated him just now.

Just as Sun Shaozong didn't know whether to breathe a sigh of relief or be disappointed, Cabinet Xu shook his head and said, "The rumors of the Crown Prince's assassination have already caused great anger to the Supreme Emperor and His Majesty. Now, we should be more cautious and not make any unnecessary mistakes.”

“You have misunderstood, Cabinet Xu.”

Zhao Rongheng was dumbfounded and pointed to the blue and green officials below, saying, "The famous doctor I mentioned is not outside the mansion, but in this hall, Imperial Censor Wang. Let's step forward and speak.”

They saw a young and handsome seventh-grade Imperial Censor emerging from the crowd and bowing his hand freely, saying, "I’m Imperial Censor Wang Kun, greetings to all the adults.”

As soon as this person appeared, several Imperial Physicians led by Qin Ming all changed their faces, and one of them hurriedly returned a salute, honoring Wang Kun as ”Martial Uncle.”

They then listened to Zhao Rongheng's introduction. "Imperial Censor Wang's father and ancestors all worked at the Imperial Clinic, and his father also served at the clinic for 17 years. Although he studied hard and passed the two imperial examinations, his family's medical skills have not fallen behind.”

As he spoke, he asked Qin Ming again, "Doctor Qin, do you think Wang Kun's medical skills are qualified to participate in this consultation?”

For a moment, everyone focused their attention on Qin Ming again.

Qin Ming's face changed a few times, but in the end, he let out a deep sigh. "Master Wang has done his best to pass on the true teachings, so he is naturally qualified to participate in the consultation.”

This matter should be troublesome now!

Judging from Zhao Rongheng's bamboo-like appearance, Wang Kun was definitely his accomplice. If he were allowed to participate in it, how could this drama of turning a deer into a horse continue to be played?!

Who could have imagined that among the imperial officials, there was still such a strange creature proficient in medical skills hidden?!

Sun Shaozong was anxious and tried to think of how to save the situation. However, he was only a fifth-grade official. How could there be any suitable reason to stop him at once?!

After Zhao Rongheng introduced Wang Kun, he refused to delay for another minute or second and immediately urged the imperial doctors to come forward to diagnose the pulse.

Watching Wang Kun lead the way to Li-Shi, Sun Shaozong's heart slowly fell into the abyss!

Damn it!

Was it destined to be a complete defeat today?!

“Report to all the adults.”

Just as Sun Shaozong couldn't help feeling discouraged, he suddenly saw Wang Kun exclaiming with joy, "This woman is indeed two months pregnant.”

“What?”

“How could this be possible?”

“You... You…”

For a moment, everyone in the hall was stunned, and even Sun Shaozong, the initiator, almost knocked his chin off.

It wouldn't be such a coincidence that Li-Shi got pregnant, right?!

No!

Even if Li was truly pregnant, it shouldn't be Wang Kun's announcement with a smile on his face!

Should it be that…

Did he unexpectedly have a temporary reversal?!

“Imperial Censor Wang.”

Zhao Rongheng clenched his teeth and asked word by word, "Have you diagnosed it?”

“Naturally, the diagnosis is already clear.”

Wang Kun, however, had no intention of changing his mind and still held his head high, saying, "I dare to guarantee with my head that Li has a two-month-old fetus in her womb.”

At this moment, Qin Ming also regained his composure from shock and immediately approached, agreeing, "Not bad; Li-Shi is indeed pregnant with a dragon bloodline.”

“From the perspective of her pulse, it is likely that it is a boy.”

This was truly a blessing for the court and a blessing for the common people.

With the appearance of the imperial physicians one by one, the statement that Li was pregnant was nailed to death. Zhao Rongheng's angry beard trembled and his face turned pale, but because Wang Kun was personally recommended by him, he couldn't say a word of doubt.

“Wang Kun.”

At this moment, Liu Fang couldn't help but jump up and pointed at Wang Kun, cursing loudly, "Are you crazy? Thanks to Zhao's appreciating talent, he is preparing to betroth his daughter to you! How dare you…”

It turned out that Wang Kun was Zhao Rongheng's soon-to-be son-in-law; no wonder he had a confident appearance.

“Lord Liu, be cautious of your words.”

Wang Kun interrupted Liu Fang's accusation with a righteous expression. "We were both sent by the Emperor's orders. We shouldn’t talk about any personal affairs. Moreover, what the Minister values must be my ability to report to the country's security and prosperity, rather than the devilish and evil tactics of causing chaos.”

“You... You…”

Liu Fang was so annoyed that he rolled his eyes, but where could he come up with a rebuttal?

*The ancients sincerely didn’t deceive me. "One who upholds justice enjoys much support and those who do not have justice on their side will get little help!”

Sun Shaozong couldn't help but feel a sigh on the side. Although he had long anticipated that the various officials in the court would inevitably lean towards stability and unity, he didn’t expect to see the power of ”political correctness” so quickly.

At this moment, seeing that the overall situation had been settled, Cabinet Xu stood up and summarized, saying, "Since everyone has no objection, please wait here for a moment. I and Doctor Qin will enter the palace and report to His Majesty and the Supreme Emperor in person.”

As he spoke, he solemnly explained, "Your Excellency Sun, I will leave the safety of Li-Shi to you.”
