Chapter 92 Doctor Liu Tells the Truth

After returning to the palace, Yu Tingwan called the secret guard and asked about the happenings in Doctor Liu's mansion.

One evening, Doctor Liu had been in his study for a short while when he suddenly ran out like a madman, asking everyone who had been in his study.

The servants in the mansion were frightened by him and didn't know what had happened. Even his wife was alarmed and kept asking if something was lost.

Who would have thought that when asked this, Doctor Liu sat on the ground as if he had lost his soul, muttering "lost, lost!"

But no matter how much they asked, they couldn't find out what was lost. They checked the study room but didn't see anything valuable missing!

The next day, Doctor Liu was bedridden and even getting up became a difficult task!

Waving his hand to let the secret guards retreat, Yu Tingwan curled the corners of his lips slightly.

This guy has done something wrong and is so scared. If he kidnaps someone else, I wonder if he will go crazy!

"Princess, do you need us to capture him and interrogate him?"

An San was now accustomed to the princess using him as a guard, so he showed up and asked directly.

Unexpectedly, Yu Tingwan refused.

"He is already bedridden at such an old age. If he gets frightened because of us, it would be a huge sin!"

Then the topic changed, and Yu Tingwan continued: "Let's invite everyone to hang out in the suburbs of Beijing tonight!"

"...Yes, I understand."

An San's eyes twitched slightly, and he complained in his heart, the princess always speaks nicely, "inviting" people, tsk tsk!

Then, seeing that Yu Tingwan had no other instructions, he turned around and returned to his post.

On the tree branch, An Si looked at An San who had returned.

"Third brother, are there any activities tonight?"

An San glanced at him and said, "Don't scare people to death."

"Don't worry, it's easy to catch an old man! This guy is a bad guy. We have found out how many bad things he has done. It's time to deal with him!"

Yu Tingwan's eyebrows twitched as she listened to the mumbling sound coming from a tree branch not far away.

Should she say that these secret guards were too lax in vigilance, or should she say that her spiritual spring water was too useful? She now had sharp eyes and ears, and to exaggerate a little, it was comparable to her ability to see and hear from afar!

Some things are already known, and what needs to be done now is to find a breakthrough. She still has some questions to ask the imperial physician.

******

"Master, someone brought it."

In a forest outside the capital, Yu Tingwan almost cried with laughter when she saw a man with a sack over his head but sitting on a chair. In order to practice what they did, they did not kidnap people but "invite" them.

An San and An Si specially prepared a chair to show that they were really inviting people!

The sack was taken off, and Doctor Liu opened his eyes in panic. The threatening voice he was about to make got stuck in his throat, and he looked at the person in front of him in disbelief.

"Prince Chen's wife!"

Yu Tingwan narrowed his eyes and smiled: "Doctor Liu, how are you?"

Looking at where he was, Doctor Liu was terrified.

"Princess, what are you doing?"

Yu Tingwan tilted her head, "I just want to ask you something, but I wonder if Imperial Doctor Liu still remembers it?"

"What? What happened?"

Imperial Doctor Liu had no idea what he had done to make the Princess of Prince Chen come to him, especially in this way.

Yu Tingwan slowly approached Doctor Liu, his eyes dark, and took out a dagger from his sleeve, pointing the tip at his throat, causing Doctor Liu to slow down his breathing.

"Doctor Liu, don't be afraid. I just want to ask what caused my mother's death. Do you remember, Doctor Liu?"

Her mother, isn’t that... Jiang Wanyun?

Doctor Liu's pupils shrank slightly, and he obviously knew something. However, he looked around in panic, stiffening his neck and shouting, "Princess, spare me. I really don't know. Didn't your mother die of illness? You know all this!"

Yu Tingwan sneered and suddenly thrust the dagger in his hand forward.

In an instant, a blood mark appeared on Doctor Liu’s neck, and Doctor Liu shut up instantly!

"Doctor Liu, are you going to continue talking nonsense? I wonder if my dagger can stop Doctor Liu from talking nonsense forever."

"Princess, I really don't know anything. I only checked your mother's pulse a few times. I didn't do anything else!"

Yu Tingwan remained unmoved. He turned his wrist and took out another booklet.

"Oh, that's a pity. But Doctor Liu, please take a look at this for me. Does it look familiar?"

The moment he saw the booklet, Doctor Liu slumped down in his chair, staring at the booklet blankly.

"It's you! It's you!"

Seeing him like this, Yu Tingwan tapped his cheek with the dagger in her hand.

"Doctor Liu, do you need me to ask you more questions?"

After a long time, Doctor Liu finally came to his senses. He glared at Yu Tingwan angrily at first, but he could do nothing about it. Finally, he smiled bitterly as if in compromise.

"Sure enough, when I first embarked on this path, I thought there would be such a day, but I didn't expect it to happen so soon!"

"Princess, since you already know, why do you need to ask me again? Your mother's pulse is recorded in the book. You can find any doctor to tell. When I first examined your mother's pulse, I found that she was deeply poisoned."

Yu Tingwan retracted the dagger in his hand, looked at him and continued to ask:

"Since you already knew that my mother was poisoned, why did you hide it? Who asked you to hide it?"

Doctor Liu looked up at the sky.

"It was that person. In fact, before I went to check your mother's pulse, that person summoned me into the palace and specifically told me to just check the pulse of a dying person no matter what I found out. So the public was announced that your mother had a heart disease and would die soon!"

Yu Tingwan's eyes suddenly turned cold, and he stared at the person in front of him with cold eyes.

"If the emperor let my mother die in order to deal with the Jiang family, then what about Yu Huaiyi? What role did he play in this?"

Doctor Liu shook his head. "No, it's not just to deal with the Jiang family. There's no need to deal with a married woman. The emperor did this to cut off the connection between Yu Shangshu and the Jiang family! And Yu Shangshu... can't you guess this?"

Of course!

Therefore, all this is because the emperor has taken a fancy to Yu Huaiyi and wants him to do things for him, while Yu Huaiyi is trying to make another big step forward in his official career. At this time, the Jiang family is their obstacle.

Relying on the Jiang family to pave the way, and immediately leaving the Jiang family behind after finding a bigger backer, this is Yu Huaiyi's path to becoming an official!

So this is the cause of my mother's death, right?

This seems to make perfect sense, but for some reason, Yu Tingwan always feels that there is something hidden deeper, and it is something related to her own life experience and Yu Huaiyi's attitude towards her. What is it?

Yu Tingwan looked at Doctor Liu:

"Why do you choose to tell me now? Since you chose not to tell the Jiang family then, why are you telling me now?"

Doctor Liu smiled bitterly: "Since you have obtained these pulse records, you naturally know what I have done all these years. I only ask you to give my family a chance to live. I am willing to die to apologize for my sins."

If these things were made public, all nine generations of their clan would be enough for the emperor to execute!

"I will not let you die."
