C474 Start of interrogation (2/2)
Imperial Physician Liang was completely drunk. He and He Li had left without knowing it, until their bodies went limp and they fell asleep on the ground.
He slept all the way until the next day when he finally woke up. He felt a splitting headache and his whole body was aching. When he opened his eyes and saw the person sitting opposite him happily eating breakfast, he jumped in surprise. His mind flashed and he quickly kneeled down...
”Young duke, your humble servant deserves to die.”
Xiao He used his chopsticks to pick up a piece of food and slowly ate it. He didn't even bat an eyelid as if the person in front of him didn't exist. His entire body emitted a cold aura.
Imperial Physician Liang knelt on the ground, his knees trembling, his entire body trembling in fear and trepidation. In his mind, he desperately tried to recall what had happened last night, but he hated him for drinking too much.
He couldn't recall anything else that had happened, so he had no idea why Xiao He would appear here.
”Young, young duke …” Imperial Physician Liang felt a chill run down his spine. In his mind, he was pondering why Xiao He was here. Could it be that this matter had something to do with the Eleventh Princess?
”Imperial Physician Liang, you really aren't afraid of death.” At this moment, Xiao He finally spoke.
He put down his chopsticks and raised his head to look at the kneeling Imperial Physician Liang as he spoke.
”This lowly servant doesn't understand what the young duke is saying.” Imperial Physician Liang's voice trembled as he spoke.
”Don't know?” ”Hmph …” Xiao He's face revealed an evil smile as he said, ”You don't need to know for now. Someone is coming …”
He gave the order coldly, and the door to the private room opened. Two people in the form of imperial bodyguards entered. Imperial Physician Liang kept an eye on them —
”Young duke, you, what are you doing?”
”Take him down for a bath and change his clean clothes until he can no longer smell the wine.” Xiao He instructed.
”Yes sir!”
Imperial Physician Liang wanted to continue speaking, but a guard blocked his mouth and dragged him away.
He wanted to bring Imperial Physician Liang to the emperor. The smell of alcohol on his body could only be suspected of being framed, so he had to clean it away without leaving any trace of the sinful wine.
Within the Celestial Prison.
The empress's palace maid, Sherry, took some time to think before finally seeing Princess Eleven. She felt a pang in her heart the moment she saw Feng Lingyue's appearance.
She knelt in front of the door and placed down the food she had brought with her. ”Princess, the esteemed Empress sent me.”
When Feng Lingyue heard this, she lifted her head and asked anxiously, ”Your Highness knows about it too?” How is she? ”
”Esteemed Empress asked this servant to tell you that she has let you down and doesn't have the ability to scheme anything for you. She wants you to take care of yourself.” Xue Li passed on the empress's message to Feng Lingyue. Finally, she paused and added, ”The empress is very worried about you.”
As Feng Lingyue heard this, her tears couldn't help but begin to fall.
As if she had suddenly gained some kind of strength, she climbed down from the cold stone bed and walked to the door of the cell.
