He spoke with a face full of grief and indignation, and his sincere speech sounded quite real.

The dean frowned and said, “Elder She, what do you say?”

He did not listen to the verdict of the left court judge and asked with a straight face.

Elder She glanced at Song Zhuo with a mocking look. He did not defend himself. Instead, he took out the prescription and respectfully handed it over to the dean to have a look. He said, “This is the antidote to the plague that this old man… Cough, Old Ma and I developed.”

The dean was well aware of Elder She’s character. After receiving the prescription, he asked excitedly, “Have you tried the medicine?”

Elder She nodded in affirmation with a red face.

Nalan Cui asked, “Can this medicine cure the plague?”

In the face of this little emperor, Elder She still gave the proper etiquette. After bowing again, he replied, “Your Majesty, the exact result will only be known three days later. However, I find that this medicine is foolproof.”

These words almost confirmed the efficacy of this medicine. A trace of satisfaction flashed across Nalan Cui’s eyes.

Seeing Su Yan, he asked, “Sister, why are you here?”

Before Su Yan could speak, Elder She replied, “The original version of this medicine was sent by Princess Consort Guang Pingwang. Princess Consort is the biggest contributor to the breakthrough of the plague antidote this time.”

He was afraid that the emperor would blame Su Yan, a woman, for barging into the imperial palace, so he quickly explained.

Su Yan looked at Elder She gratefully, even though he was overthinking it.

The smile on Nalan Cui’s face widened, and he said, “Sister, you should have let me accompany you if you wanted to come.”

This sentence directly pointed out the close relationship between the two of them.

Elder She was shocked. He did not expect that the relationship between the little emperor and Guang Residence was so close.

Su Yan also stood beside Nalan Cui with a smile and said, “I was just on a whim today.”

The dean had been observing Old Ma all this while, but the usually active Old Ma was now very quiet.

“Junior Brother!” The dean cried out in surprise.

Old Ma’s body stiffened, and then he said with a smile, “Lord Dean, did you recognize the wrong person?”

The dean looked at his mischievous smile, which was very different from his impression of his junior brother who was as bright as the moon. He began to hesitate.

“This is Old Ma,” Elder She said.

His expression was a little strange as he introduced Old Ma to the dean.

The left court judge shouted from the side, “Lord Dean, you can’t believe what they said. I don’t believe that a little girl can do anything. This prescription must be fake.”

Nalan Cui’s eyes turned cold as the dagger in his hand went straight for his head.

The left court judge rolled on the ground and barely avoided it. The dagger held a strand of hair on his forehead and pinned it to the ground. Song Zhuo was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat. He sat on the ground and panted heavily. He looked at the way the dagger had sunk into the ground, Nalan Cui did not hold back at all. He wanted to take his life.

Nalan Cui’s expression was ice-cold as he said, “Why does the Imperial Hospital still keep such a person?”

The dean lowered his head when he heard this. Only Song Zhuo was still unaware of the situation. He did not put this newly appointed little emperor in his eyes at all.

He was still shouting loudly, “Lord Dean, I am doing this for the good of the Imperial Hospital. Princess Consort Guang Pingwang has relied on her status to protect Old Ma and right court judge a few times. They might be plotting something.”

The dean directly interrupted his incessant chattering and said, “That’s enough, Song Zhuo. Since you have contributed and worked hard for the Imperial Hospital for so many years, you should resign and return to your hometown from today onwards.”

Song Zhuo did not expect this result. He glared and said, “I am one of Elder Zheng’s people. Lord Dean, you should think it through.”

These words upset the dean. If he were to use Elder Zheng as his shield in front of the emperor, Elder Zheng would probably want to kill him. It did not matter what Elder Zheng thought in his mind. However, if his thought was laid open before others, it would mean that he had the intention to rebel.

However, Song Zhuo was still making a scene recklessly.

Nalan Cui said directly, “Shut up, or I will make sure that you will never be able to speak..”
