Chapter 13 The Emperor became suspicious

Dr. Yue? Liang Di looked Shangguan Yue up and down, and couldn't help wondering in his heart. Shouldn't a highly respected doctor be white-bearded and white-haired, with a sage like type appearance? Such a delicate little girl can also cure diseases? Liang Di shot Shangguan Yue with sharp eyes, as if to see her true face. Ordinary men can't stand the emperor's gaze like eagles, but Shangguan Yue walked up to him gracefully and squatted down to salute. "Shangguan Yue, a civilian daughter, has seen the emperor." "Shangguan?" Liang Di suddenly felt that the name seemed familiar. "Who are you, Lord Shangguan, the prime minister of this dynasty?" The Queen Mother laughed: "Emperor, don't always look at people with suspicion. You are so fierce, other girls will frighten you." The emperor was a little uncomfortable. "The mother worried too much, but the son and minister just asked one more question, and there was no malice." Shangguan Yue was about to bow down and answer when a big eunuch came in and reported, "Report to the emperor, Shangguan Lord asks for an interview." Emperor Liang snorted coldly from his nose. "Say Cao Cao, Cao Cao will arrive. I don't have to ask this girl any more. Let Lord Shangguan tell me himself." Shangguan Yu had just returned to Beijing from Taohua Castle when he hurried to Cining Palace. Seeing that the emperor was there, he immediately bowed down to the ground. "I know that the Queen Mother is treating eye diseases today and came here specially. I hope I didn't miss the time." Liang Di did not be polite with him, but said coldly, "Lord Shangguan, this woman claims to be Shangguan Yue. Do you know her?" Shangguan Yu clear voice said, "She is Shangguan Yue, the eldest daughter of the micro-minister. Of course, the micro-minister knows her." "Nonsense!" Liang Di flew into a rage. "Five years ago, you told me that your eldest daughter Shangguan Yue died of a serious illness and asked the second young lady Shangguan Li to marry on her behalf. Now you tell me that this woman is your eldest daughter Shangguan Yue? Do you know that I cannot tolerate the crime of deceiving you." Shangguan Yu kowtowed repeatedly. "Your Majesty, there is another secret in this matter. Let Weichen come slowly." Liang Di said sharply, "Deceiving the king is deceiving the king, and there is no cunning." Seeing Shangguan Yu embarrassed, Shangguan Yue leisurely went forward and said, "Emperor, the commoner did die of sudden illness five years ago. It was just a coincidence that she was saved by a master. She not only cured the commoner of the stubborn disease, but also taught the commoner the medical skills of a whole body. Since then, the commoner has been hiding in Peach Blossom Castle, and Shangguan adults did not know." "Since you have cured your illness, why don't you contact your family?" "Civilians have other difficulties, also hope the emperor forgive me. Civilians came here this time just to cure the queen mother, and had no other intention. What the emperor cares about should be whether the daughter can really let the queen mother see the light again. Other things should not matter to the emperor." This is reasonable. Emperor Liang nodded his head and said slowly, "Did you really cure the tuberculosis that Dingyuan was waiting for?" Shangguan Yue smiled. "Tuberculosis is not an incurable disease. After raising it for a while, Hou Ye will be no different from ordinary people." "What about the Queen Mother's eye disease?" "The Queen Mother's eye disease is just a common cataract in the elderly. After a minor operation, the Queen Mother can see the light again in a few days." Emperor Liang heard too much of this promise. Many Jianghu traveling doctors learned that the Queen Mother had eye diseases. The Emperor offered a large reward and came to Cining Palace like a lantern to make an assessment. The money cheated a lot, but the Queen Mother's eye diseases were not good. The Queen Mother's eyes have been blind for many years, and even the experienced old doctor in Taiyuan Hospital is helpless. How can such a little girl be treated? Moreover, the Shangguan family has never had a doctor for dozens of generations. Shangguan Yue suddenly claimed to be able to cure diseases. How can Emperor Liang believe it? He didn't want to expose her immediately, but said coldly, "Miss Yue, don't talk too much. What if the Queen Mother's eye disease can't be cured?" Shangguan Yue understood Liang Di's worries and only solemnly said: "The commoner is willing to guarantee with his head. If the Queen Mother's illness cannot be cured, the commoner is willing to apologize with death." Now, Shangguan Yu had to add, "Your Majesty, Yue Er is the daughter of the minister. The minister is willing to guarantee the lives of more than 200 people in the whole clan of Shangguan. If Yue Er cannot cure the Queen Mother's eye disease, our whole clan will let the emperor dispose of it."
