Jiang Qingmei was startled and retorted shrilly almost reflexively: "What nonsense are you talking about!?"

Everyone was stunned. They didn't expect Ye Chutang to say such a thing.

——Isn’t she openly accusing Jiang Qingmei?
However, Ye Chutang remained calm and just looked at her calmly: "What am I talking about? You really don't know?"

Jiang Qingmei's lips moved and she was about to speak, but when she met those calm and cold black eyes, she felt inexplicably timid.

Jiang Qingmei was angry and anxious: "I don't know what you are talking about! Your Majesty is ill, and all I wish for is for Your Majesty to be healthy and safe! Don't think that you can slander me just because you have some medical skills!"

There was dead silence.

Everyone looked at each other.

It was Wang Songshi who spoke first, breaking the silence: "What did Miss Ye Er just say...what exactly did she mean?"

As soon as he said this, even the sound of his breathing seemed to disappear.

Countless eyes were focused on Ye Chutang, waiting for her explanation.

Ye Chutang seemed to be unaware of the pressure. He just turned his head to look at Wang Songshi and spoke calmly:
"Your Majesty's dragon body is so weak, it is not a sudden change, but someone has tampered with his diet, which has damaged his heart and lungs over the years, leading to the current situation."

"What!?"

Wang Songshi was so shocked that he lost his voice and could hardly believe what he heard.

Everyone present gasped, and someone in the crowd spoke up -

"Who is so bold as to commit such a treasonous act? "

As soon as he said this, he immediately stopped talking.

But everyone had heard it, and without having to answer, they subconsciously looked in the same direction.

——Jiang Qingmei! Wasn't Ye Chutang talking about her just now?
"You're talking nonsense!"

Jiang Qingmei's face turned blue, and her chest rose and fell violently.

"I have never done such a thing! Ye Chutang! I know you hate Cheng Xuan, but you are really going too far by throwing dirty water on me like this!"

Ye Chutang did not respond to her words, but continued to look at Wang Songshi and said, "The Minister of the Court also knows about this matter, you can ask."

Wang Songshi immediately looked at Chu Qiyuan who was standing beside him: "Envoy Chu, is this... true?"

Chu Qiyuan was silent for a long time, then he sighed: "It's all my fault. I didn't notice the problem in time, causing your majesty's health to deteriorate and now he's even sick."

Wang Songshi and the others were all stunned - what he meant by this was that he admitted that what Ye Chutang said was true!

Chu Qiyuan looked guilty, "If I had realized the problem earlier, I would never have let His Majesty's illness drag on like this."

It was only after Ye Chutang mentioned this to him that he realized something was wrong. Otherwise, he would never know when he would find out, or perhaps the secret would be buried forever.

He has been in charge of Emperor Mu Wu's health over the years. He cannot escape the blame and feels deeply guilty for such a huge mistake.

Ye Chutang shook his head slightly: "The other party is in the dark and you are in the light, how can you prevent it? Besides, the other party is just making some minor adjustments to the food and drink, which is extremely concealed and difficult to detect."

It felt like a taut string was being plucked in Jiang Qingmei's brain, causing her head to ache.

She laughed in anger:
"Okay! Now that His Majesty is in a coma, you want to abuse your power to deal with me? Ye Chutang! If you say so, then show me the evidence if you have the guts!"

Ye Chutang did not respond.

Chu Qiyuan sighed: "The only people who know about your majesty's old illness are the princess and you, right?" (End of this chapter)
