Chapter 7: Mess with the Emperor's Harem

Thinking about the cynicism and sarcasm of the Chu family, how could Chu Qiao and her mother be willing to freeze to death like this?

"Chu Qiao, what should mother do?" The eldest lady opened her eyes, she was completely despairing. If it weren't for Chu Qiao, her daughter, she would probably not be alive now.

"It's nothing. If the sky falls, I will be covered with it. Mom, live a good life with Chu Qiao."

Chu Qiao suddenly avoided her mother's gaze. In fact, she felt no more relaxed than she did. Now that things have happened, it is difficult to change the situation. The Fourth Miss Chu still said that if the sky falls, she will be covered, or she will have to start over again.

The eldest lady knew Chu Qiao's temperament and had never accepted her fate since she was a child. She had many conflicts with her concubine sister and aunt, and even when she was beaten, she never bowed her head.

But now, the Yun family has been raided and the Chu family is eager to get rid of the relationship. She and Chu Qiao really have no one to rely on.

"I don't believe it. My eldest brother is not that kind of person. He has great medical skills. How could he kill the emperor?" The eldest lady said, shedding tears again.

"Perhaps the emperor is suffering from a fatal disease, but he puts the blame on his uncle."

Chu Qiao also agreed with her mother's words and had long known what her uncle was capable of, but no matter how powerful the doctor was, it was impossible to bring a dying person back from the road to hell.

"Chu Qiao, the emperor is suffering from cold..."

Chu Qiao was stunned by the eldest lady's words.

Wind-cold is just a common ailment. If you take good care of it and use timely medicine, you can be cured in just a day or two. The emperor is the most respected person in the Ninth Five-Year Plan, and he is above tens of millions of people. He must take good care of him. How can he be cured just because of a wind-cold?

Someone died? How could my uncle be defeated by Fenghan?

"They said that your uncle had an affair with Concubine Mu, manipulated the medicine, and poisoned the emperor. Concubine Mu has already confessed, saying that your uncle seduced her..."

One sentence was like a bolt from the blue.

Colluding with Concubine Mu?

Regicide is a capital crime, let alone having access to the emperor's harem... Is your uncle crazy?

Chu Qiao only knew that every time her uncle came to the Chu Mansion, he loved her very much and praised her endlessly. But what her uncle's private life was like, Chu Qiao really didn't know. How could the Yun family afford such a crime? If they were dissatisfied, the family would be executed, and the nine clans would be implicated.

That's weird?

"The new king ascended the throne and demoted the surname Yun to a pariah surname. Even if all of us in the Yun family are dead, we will be despised by everyone in the world."

"I don't believe my uncle would do that?"

Chu Qiao's eyes widened. Firstly, her respect for her uncle made her not believe that he was that kind of person. Secondly, even if her uncle wanted to poison the emperor, why did he do it so blatantly and poison the medicine?

Seeking death?

"Mom doesn't believe it... I don't believe it! Your uncle is not that kind of person. He loves Qingshan deeply and refuses to take concubines. How could he have an affair with Concubine Mu? He loves medicine so much, how could he slander the medical ethics of my Yun family?"

The mother shook her head, her face turned frighteningly pale. If this continued, the cold and hunger would not kill her, she would torture herself crazy.

Chu Qiao is also well aware of the importance her uncle attaches to medical ethics. Every time she comes to the Chu family to teach Chu Qiao medical books, she always emphasizes that doctors must have compassion and adhere to medical ethics.

How come this time, my uncle did such an unfaithful and unjust thing for a woman? Chu Qiao looked at her mother blankly and suddenly stood up.

"Mom, I want to go to the capital to prove that my uncle is innocent, to restore the innocence of the Yun family medicine family, and to turn the world around with the Yun family name."

Chu Qiao didn't know where she got the courage. As a penniless daughter of the Yun family who might be wanted by the government, going to the capital like this would be like walking into a tiger's mouth and full of dangers.
