Chapter 516 was a setup from the start.
"Yes," Steward Liu replied, bowing his head.
Yi Yun Kui's face suddenly turned cold, his eyes filled with unconcealed anger, and he slammed his hand on the table.
Liu Derong trembled and quickly lowered his head: "Could it be that the ignorant medical cultivator angered the Emperor? He's just a medical cultivator. If the Emperor is displeased, he can simply get rid of him."
"Just a medical cultivator?" Yi Yun Kui scoffed, but shook his head: "I have seen countless people, and this medical cultivator is definitely not someone to be underestimated."
"That Emperor..."
Yi Yun Kui pursed his lips and remained silent for a while before raising his chin again: "Let's see. There aren't many people who dare to speak like this in front of me anymore. I want to see whether what he said is true or false."
"If it's the truth, I'll keep him and find a way to get him to work for me. If it's a lie..."
Yi Yunkui didn't finish his sentence, but Liu Derong, who had served Yi Yunkui for so many years, naturally understood the unspoken meaning in his words.
If it's a lie, then this medical cultivator named Xu Mo is probably doomed to die.
Yi Yunkui picked up the prescription that Yi Moxu had written earlier and handed it to Liu Derong: "Go to the Imperial Hospital and have Xu Fangde take a look at this prescription. What kind of prescription is it? Is there anything wrong with the medicine in it?"
"Yes," Liu Derong replied hastily.
"Avoiding people."
"Yes."
Yi Yun Kui leaned back slightly. Had he overdone it?
He had consulted many imperial physicians about this matter before, but they were all helpless.
Excessive ejaculation during dual cultivation is not a serious illness, nor is it so complicated that even the imperial physicians of the Imperial Hospital cannot diagnose it.
He no longer trusts Xu Mo.
Therefore, even if the imperial physician found no problems with the prescription Xu Mo gave him, he would not use it.
However, it is not too difficult to avoid losing yang energy during dual cultivation.
He can try it for a while and see if there is any improvement...
If it was a misdiagnosis by that medical cultivator named Xu Mo, that would be one thing, but if it really was...
A ruthless glint flashed in Yi Yun Kui's eyes. If it were true, then those imperial physicians in the Imperial Hospital definitely had something to do with it, and he would certainly not let them off easily.
……
Ye Qing'an and Yi Moxu had already boarded the carriage. Ye Qing'an looked up at Yi Moxu with a smile on her lips: "What you just told Yi Yunkui, was it true?"
Yi Moxu chuckled lightly: "Half true, half false."
"Ok?"
"Among the several 'furnaces' around Yi Yun Kui now, there are some of my people. I had them use certain methods during their dual cultivation with Yi Yun Kui, causing him to excessively deplete his yang energy, leaving his body weak. However, while this is one reason for his current state, it's not the only one."
Ye Qing'an raised an eyebrow: "So if he takes the medicine you prescribed and does as you said, he will get better?"
Yi Moxu shook his head, then nodded.
"What do you mean by shaking your head and nodding like that?"
Yi Moxu smiled and said, "What I mean is, this is the first time Yi Yunkui has met me. He will never believe the prescription I gave him, even if someone has checked it and found no problems. He won't risk taking it. The most he'll do is avoid losing his yang energy during dual cultivation..."
"However, if he does this, there will be some improvement."
Ye Qing'an blinked: "Impressive."
"However, the improvement is only temporary. The root cause has not been found, so it is only a temporary solution. After a while, the old problems will recur." Yi Moxu smiled like a cunning fox.
"If that's the case, wouldn't he think you're useless?" Ye Qing'an frowned. "Given Yi Yun Kui's personality, if he thinks you're useless, he probably won't spare your life."
“No, he won’t.” Yi Moxu’s eyes shone brightly. “As long as there is a change this time, he will relapse into his old ways after a while. He will only suspect that it’s because he didn’t take the medicine I prescribed. He might even think that someone is secretly plotting against him.”
"At that moment, I, who was the first to point out his problems to his face, became the only person he could trust."
“He will definitely come to me again, and next time, he will use my prescription and listen to me.”
Ye Qing'an stared intently at Yi Moxu, feeling that although Yi Moxu did not hold any pieces, he had a commanding presence, as if he had already arranged everything and everything was developing in the direction he had planned.
At this moment, Yi Moxu seemed to be radiating light.
Ye Qing'an smiled, but then remembered...
"Wait, I remember saying I'd take you to see Yi Yun Kui, that was just yesterday, right? Why do I feel like you've been planning this for a long time?"
Yi Moxu did not deny it: "I have indeed been planning this for a long time."
"Since when?"
“Before I even met you,” Yi Moxu raised an eyebrow at Ye Qing’an, “didn’t Miss Ye know that my entry into the Ye residence was all part of a scheme?”
"Besides for Gu Duo, it's also so that I can stand in front of Yi Yun Kui."
"No matter who brought me to Yi Yun Kui, everything that happened today was bound to happen sooner or later."
In Yi Moxu's eyes, there was undisguised ambition and scheming.
Ye Qing'an chuckled softly. This man, now standing before her, had not only removed the mask he wore, but also the facade he used to deceive others.
But this side of Yi Moxu only made her more and more attracted to him...
"Your Highness, your strategic thinking is truly admirable."
Yi Moxu turned her head and smiled, "Miss Ye, you flatter me."
But after saying that, Ye Qing'an remembered what Yi Yun Kui had said after being drugged by Yi Mo Xu, and her expression gradually darkened.
"Gu Duo is truly pitiful. From beginning to end, he is probably the most innocent person, yet he also suffers the most."
Yi Moxu nodded and fell silent: "So, people are often bullied because they are kind. Sometimes, being too naive and kind, too blindly loyal and filial, or too generous and righteous is not a good thing."
Eleven hadn't taken a midday rest and was already feeling a bit drowsy, so Ye Qing'an rested Eleven's head on her shoulder before whispering, "I just can't figure it out. If Gu Duo's lost soul wasn't caused by Yi Yun Kui, then who was it? And what was their purpose?"
“Send someone to investigate carefully what happened to Gu Duo more than ten years ago, who he was close to, and who he made enemies with.” Yi Moxu leaned casually against the side of the carriage. “Although so many years have passed, what has happened is always hard to erase, and it will always leave some clues. Many of the people who were by Gu Duo’s side back then, whether in Siyou Kingdom or Mingyue Kingdom, are still alive.”
Ye Qing'an nodded: "Yes, we should investigate this thoroughly."
