The emperor inquired without further ado, ”Minister Pei Ai, is her statement correct?”
The Shumishi was shocked as he was one of the supporters of the fourth prince, Rong Chu and thus he did not want the fourth prince to be on the losing end…
Just as he wanted to speak, Tian Jiyue who was sitting on the seat of honor dictated, ”Everyone must tell the truth, if I find out that anyone had lied, I will kill him with my own hands!”
A cold sweat broke out over minister Pei’s forehead, and with determination, he replied, ”According to the information I have, what Ms. Gu had said is correct…”

Gu Xixi took a deep breath secretly, ”My master acts mysteriously and with alow-profile. Besides, he doesn’t share what he's doing to his disciples. Therefore, I…it shouldn’t be strange even if I don’t know much about these things, right?”
Gu Xijiu sneered, ”If you are heartless and don’t want to know more about your master, it’s definitely not a strange thing not knowing how many patients have your master has healed. However, isn’t it very odd that you don’t even know the behavior of your master when he attends to a patient?!”
