158 Have A Look At Custodian Huo (2/2)

To avoid a few pairs of eyes from watching him, he turned around and opened his robe to allow the royal physician to inspect his body. The royal physician looked at the wound and then looked at him again. He checked his pulse and pulled his eyelids.

Custodian Huo was mad and asked, ”Have you finished checking!?”

”Yes.” The royal physician answered emotionlessly and went back to report to the Emperor, ”Your Majesty, there is a scar as big as a nail on his chest. It looks red but is not bleeding. I did not see any sign of purplish wounds or any symptoms of poisoning. His pulse is as normal as a healthy person, and his eyes are normal…”

In other words, he was not being poisoned!

The Emperor stared at Custodian Huo and felt annoyed!

He said Gu Xijiu was possessed by an evil spirit and that it would be harmful to the entire kingdom if the Emperor refused to investigate. The Emperor gave him the green light as he thought it was really serious. The Emperor also respected him as the custodian of the Jiuxing clan.

However, it now looked as though Gu Xijiu was an ordinary girl who had not been possessed by an evil spirit! That made His Majesty look bad in front of a little girl. Although Gu Xijiu did not say anything about that, the Emperor could sense that the little girl was unhappy with him and became more cautious.

This wa all thanks to Custodian Huo.

The Emperor asked emotionlessly, ”Custodian Huo, anything else you want to say?”

Custodian Huo was nervous, ”Your Majesty, I got poisoned!I feel very itchy at my chest, and I accidentally dropped the pillar. It’s cracked now!” He then went straight to the point, ”Your Majesty, Miss Gu accidentally toppled the jade pillar, and I rushed to support it. She then fell into my arms, and her hairpin poked my chest. Her hairpin must be poisonous! Your Majesty, please check her hairpin!”
