Zhazha: [Little Chuchu, you are still a mute right now!]

Ye Chuchu pouted, hands on her hips: [Zhazha, quickly exchange for a Vocalization Pill for me.]

Zhazha: [Alrighty, alrighty.]

[Little Master, what flavor do you want?]

Ye Chuchu: [Ah? You can choose the flavor of a Vocalization Pill?]

Zhazha: [Yes!]

[The system currently has two flavors!]

[Durian flavor and Luosifen (snail rice noodle) flavor.]

Ye Chuchu: [Ah!]

[Both of these are flavors I like.]

Zhazha: [Yes, yes, they were based on your tastes, Little Master.]

Ye Chuchu: [But if these two smells suddenly waft from me, they will definitely think I’m eating… you know what.]

[Forget it, forget it. I’ll just eat it when I go back.]

Ye Chuchu secretly glanced at Emperor Shangde and her second sister, who were sitting in front of her, looking affectionately at each other.

Ye Chuchu: [Such a good second sister, I cannot let her be hurt again.]

[How can I protect her…]

Ye Chuchu pulled at her dress in a frenzy.

Meanwhile, everyone in Fanghua Palace was shocked beyond words.

Especially her second sister, Consort Shu!

She had just heard her little sister’s inner voice?

She already knew everything that had happened to the Ye family today.

But she never imagined that the Imperial Noble Consort would strike so quickly.

And who was this invisible “Zhazha”?

Consort Shu wanted to ask, but suddenly it felt as if someone had grabbed her by the throat.

Consort Shu gasped for air!

Emperor Shangde, while listening to Ye Chuchu’s inner voice, shook his head at Consort Shu.

Consort Shu stopped the thought of asking Chuchu, and the sensation of suffocation vanished.

Consort Shu looked at Emperor Shangde in confusion.

Seeing the Emperor so calm, it seemed he was already aware of her little sister’s peculiarity.

Jinxiu and Jinli also looked at each other, seeing shock in each other’s eyes.

They could actually hear Third Miss Ye’s inner voice!

Was her slipping and falling suddenly tonight really not an accident?

Jinxiu immediately stepped out.

Since Third Miss said someone had spread oil outside, she had to go and check!

At this moment, a man in light blue official robes walked in hurriedly with a box on his back.

“This old subject pays respects to Your Majesty and Consort Shu!”

Emperor Shangde glanced at Physician Wang, who was kneeling on the ground, and said in a deep voice: “Physician Wang, go and check that medicine to see if there is any problem!”

Physician Wang wiped the cold sweat from his forehead: “Yes!”

Tonight, he had just gone through a battle against the King of Hell to save time for Consort Liu, and now he had been hurriedly summoned to Fanghua Palace!

My life is so hard!

Physician Wang squatted down before the medicine bowl that Ye Chuchu had smashed, dipped his fingers into some tiny dregs of the medicine, and brought them to his nose to sniff.

Ye Chuchu: [Zhazha, the Emperor is quite smart. He actually knew there was a problem with the anti-miscarriage medicine my sister drank.]

Zhazha: [That’s right; otherwise, how could he be the Emperor?]

Ye Chuchu: [This Physician Wang is the one who was just in Consort Liu’s courtyard saying Physician He was applying needles recklessly.]

[He’s truly impressive; he saw at a glance that Physician He was a bad person.]

Physician Wang broke into a cold sweat.

Where would I have such great ability?

I was kneeling outside behind the door the whole time!

If he hadn’t heard Third Miss Ye’s inner voice, he would never have known that Physician He had the audacity to plot against Consort Liu in front of the Emperor.

At the time, if the Emperor hadn’t kicked him and given him a look, he wouldn’t have dared to lie through his teeth without the Emperor’s permission.

Moreover, when concubines in the inner palace give birth, it is always female physicians who go in; men are not allowed to step foot inside!

I am truly unworthy of Third Miss Ye’s praise!

Physician Wang frowned as he looked at the medicine on his fingertips.

This medicine is an abortifacient!

It seemed the Emperor and Consort Shu already knew about this from Third Miss Ye’s inner voice, which was why the medicine wasn’t drunk and was instead smashed.

I am to be the puppet who voices Third Miss Ye’s inner thoughts!

Physician Wang was just about to stand up to fulfill his mission as a puppet when he suddenly heard the voice of that ‘Zhazha.’

Zhazha: [Little Chuchu, this Physician Wang has a big piece of gossip on him. Do you want to hear it?]

Physician Wang, who was about to stand up, received a look from Emperor Shangde and obediently bent his body back down, pretending to continue sniffing the medicine dregs!

My life is so bitter!

I want to listen to my own gossip in peace.

Ye Chuchu: [Tell me, tell me, I want to hear it!]

[Hehe, I feel awful if I don’t eat gossip for an hour!]

Zhazha: [Yes, yes, I live for gossip, I die for gossip, I laugh happily while eating gossip.]

[Entering the main topic of the big gossip!]

[Little Chuchu, you don’t know this, but Physician Wang has been a genius obsessed with medicine since he was a child.]

[Previously, he loved tinkering with herbs.]

[He had his own pharmacy in his residence where he fiddled with various herbs.]

[Many precious medicines and prescriptions in the Great Jing Kingdom today were developed by Physician Wang.]

[Once, he developed a new medicine, but it was only a semi-finished product.]

[Physician Wang’s ten-year-old son entered his pharmacy, accidentally ingested the medicine, and fainted.]

[By the time he was discovered, the child’s face had already turned blue.]

At this moment, Physician Wang remembered the scene from many years ago, when his son lay in the pharmacy with a blue face.

His eye sockets turned red in an instant.

This was the sorrowful matter in his heart that could not be mentioned.

Emperor Shangde pricked up his ears. He had heard rumors of this incident, but unfortunately, the child had died!

That was the only seedling of the Wang family!

Since then, Physician Wang had never developed new medicine again.

Ye Chuchu: [Did Physician Wang’s child die later?]

Zhazha: [He didn’t die!]

Emperor Shangde frowned slightly.

That’s not right!

He was already dead!

It was precisely because the child had died that Physician Wang’s wife, nearing fifty, had been traveling everywhere seeking doctors and medicine, wanting to conceive again.

Physician Wang, who was squatting, saw his hands tremble.

Didn’t die?

Zhazha: [Everyone thought Master Wang had died, but in reality, he didn’t die at all!]

[The semi-finished medicine that Physician Wang developed at the time, Master Wang never actually ate it.]

Ye Chuchu: [Ah? What exactly happened?]

Zhazha: [Physician Wang had a concubine, his cousin, Little Madame Wang!]

[It was her, of course!]

[Little Madame Wang loved Physician Wang very much and dreamed of bearing a son for him.]

[But Little Madame Wang’s belly just wouldn’t cooperate; she couldn’t lay an egg.]

[Watching Master Wang grow bigger and more handsome, Little Madame Wang got angry!]

[She set a trap, put poison inside a piece of candy, lured Master Wang to Physician Wang’s pharmacy, and had him eat the poisonous candy.]

[She also took away the semi-finished product Physician Wang developed, misleading him into thinking it was his own medicine and his own negligence that killed his child.]

[In fact, the child didn’t die. When he was being buried, the coffin shook, and he spat out the poisonous candy stuck in his throat, coming back to life.]

[Master Wang struggled in the coffin for a long time. A woodcutter passed by and thought he had encountered a ghost, but he felt something was wrong and dug out Master Wang, who was still alive.]

Ye Chuchu: [Then why didn’t Master Wang go home?]

[Go back and report Little Madame Wang!]
