Chapter 1312 - 1312: Deputy Chief Zhang
No, definitely not, the Emperor must be testing him, because it was his first time serving in the imperial study, He just wanted to test him, and he will not let him drink.
“What? My words don’t work?” Chu Yan crossed his arms and looked at Li Dao coldly.
Eunuch Fu also felt that something was wrong, and a layer of cold sweat broke out on his back while in deep thought. He couldn’t, he couldn’t… … possibly so unlucky, right?
Li Dao didn’t dare to hesitate any longer. He walked towards the imperial table with trembling legs and picked up the teacup with trembling hands, but he never put the teacup to his mouth.
“Drink!” Chu Yan growled.
Li Dao knelt with a plop, not even daring to look at the Emperor. The teacup in his hand was about to fall to the ground.
Chu Yan stretched out his foot and kicked him. The teacup flew out from Li Dao’s palm, flew into the air, and landed firmly in Chu Yan’s palm.
“Eunuch Fu, send someone to invite Imperial Doctor Xu over.”
Li Dao, who was already limp on the ground, couldn’t speak.
Chu Yan put the teacup on the imperial table and sat back in the chair, but his cold eyes were still fixed on Li Dao: “Tell me, who sent you here?”
“This slave, this slave doesn’t know what the Emperor means. This slave was originally a member of the Department of Internal Affairs, but he was transferred here by Eunuch Fu today. This slave has never met Imperial Concubine Meng, so I ask the emperor for mercy.”
Chu Yan looked up at Eunuch Fu, Eunuch Fu immediately knelt, and said urgently: “Your Majesty, this old slave just sent Haizi away, so there is a vacancy here. This old slave found the deputy chief and asked him to pick one person. Deputy Chief Zhang recommended this person, and this old slave did not know him before.”
Chu Yan naturally knew that Eunuch Fu would not dare to do these things, nor would it be necessary.
Eunuch Fu was left to him by his Imperial Father. With his status, he was already a high-ranking officer, the chief executive of internal affairs. He had reached his peak at this point. There was no need for him to join in with useless things and change his master. His life may not be better than it was now.
Chu Yan said: “Go and Call Deputy Chief Zhang quickly.”
Eunuch Fu knew the seriousness of the situation, so he immediately got up and rushed out.
Deputy Chief Zhang had just finished his work at hand and was about to go out. As soon as he reached the gate of the Department of Internal Affairs, he was blocked by Eunuch Fu.
Deputy Chief Zhang glanced at the Imperial Dragon Guards who were following Eunuch Fu, his heart skipped a beat, but he put on a relaxed smile on his face: “Eunuch Fu is here to look for me?”
Eunuch Fu didn’t give him a good face. This guy has caused him a lot of trouble.
“Take him away!” Eunuch Fu was too lazy to talk nonsense with him. He directly ordered the Imperial Dragon Guards behind him to take people away.
Deputy Chief Zhang hurriedly backed away: “What do you mean? I am the Deputy Manager of the Department of Internal Affairs, you can’t treat me like this.”
Eunuch Fu snorted: “You are right, you are the deputy director of the Department of Internal Affairs, but have you forgotten that there is a Chief Executive in the Department of Internal Affairs?”
Unfortunately, the Chief Executive was him, Eunuch Fu.
Deputy Chief Zhang was about to shout, but his mouth was blocked by Eunuch Fu with a rag.
“Take him away!”
The two Imperial Dragon guards carried the speechless Deputy Chief Zhang to the imperial study room. As soon as they entered the imperial study room, Deputy Chief Zhang saw Li Dao kneeling on the ground with a pale face, while the imperial doctor was examining the tea.
He wailed in his heart again and again. He knew that he was finished, completely finished.
Chu Yan was still reading the memorial. As if he didn’t take the matter to his heart at all. He never took his eyes off the memorial in front of him for a moment.
