Chapter 577: Letting the old man off easy
First it was Physician Pang who died peacefully, then it was Physician Qian who died in the embrace of a woman, and both of these individuals were Imperial Physicians responsible for treating Deng Mo.
Emperor Ming naturally believed that all this couldn’t possibly be a coincidence!
“Did the people from the prison department, who was guarding Physician Qian, notice anything unusual?” Emperor Ming asked solemnly.
As Deng Mo’s symptoms became more and more serious, and after the accident happened to Physician Pang, even though he did not find any suspicious clues, the cautious Emperor Ming still sent people to secretly protect the safety of the other Physicians.
If there was anything suspicious about Physician Qian’s death, the prison department must have discovered something.
However, the results disappointed him greatly.
Bing Mian shook his head, “From the palace to Physician Qian’s residence, the Prison Department has been providing covert protection. Even during Physician Qian’s intimacy with his wife, they kept watch on the roof. The cause of death was indeed a sudden wind, and there was nothing suspicious about it”.
“Absurd!” Emperor Ming rose from his seat, anger written all over his face, “Two Imperial Physicians died one after the other, both of whom were usually in charge of Chief Deng’s treatments.”
“Are you telling me that this is a coincidence? Do you believe that? What good is your prison department? Is it possible that if I die in a concubine’s chamber one day, history will record it as a death by sudden wind?”
