Duke Ning's eyes slightly narrowed and a blade like glow shot out at Chen Ning.
"This girl, she looks innocent and harmless, but her stomach is full of twists and turns. How could Zhao Rong be a match for her? Even I almost fell for her trap. Humph, I really underestimated her! But, so what if her schemes are deep, I still need to let her know how strong I am! "
As he pondered, he saw the gazes of the courtiers looking at him. He shouted at the attendants around him, "What are you doing here?
"Do you servants not have eyes? This duke's wine cup has fallen, why aren't you bringing a new one for this duke? "
"Yes, yes."
The palace servants serving wine at the side had long felt the tension in the hall. They all shrunk their necks and didn't dare to breathe, afraid that they would become scapegoats if they didn't show any mercy. At this time, hearing Duke Ning's scolding, a palace maid hurriedly brought over a new wine cup and poured wine for him.
"Humph, a group of blind servants. This duke has been sick for three years and you all don't even put this duke in your eyes, daring to neglect me like this. The dirty hands of your servants are not fit to pour wine for this duke!"
Duke Ning did not even look at the wine the maid poured for him. With a wave of his sleeve, he threw the cup to the ground.
The maid kneeled down in fear as her face turned pale.
Everyone in the hall who had ears could hear his indirect scolding of the locust tree.
Duke Ning was scolding the servants, but he was actually pointing the spear at the empress!
Everyone knew this in their hearts. They secretly looked at each other as they were filled with confusion.
Duke Ning had ignored the court for three years, but today he had appeared to oppose the empress. The two of them were attacking each other, what was the reason for this?
Did the two of them have a grudge against each other?
But when everyone thought about it, they understood.
Duke Ning was doing this to clear the obstacles for his daughter to sit on the throne of the Empress!
Everyone was sweeping the snow in front of their door, who cared about the frost on other people's roofs? They just needed to watch the show, talk less and eat more! Don't provoke a louse that can't be shaken off for no reason!
The ministers all lowered their heads, as if they did not feel the tense atmosphere in the hall.
"The divine doctor of the ancient era has arrived!"
Suddenly, the sharp voice of a eunuch came from the entrance of the hall.
Duke Ning was sitting calmly in his chair, but when he heard this, he suddenly stood up. His face was filled with excitement and disbelief as he looked in the direction of the entrance.
He got up too quickly and fiercely, causing the chair to fall to the ground with a 'clang', making a loud noise. The ministers all turned to look at the source of the sound.
Everyone revealed a confused look as they followed Duke Ning's gaze to the entrance of the hall.
Ancient divine doctor? What ancient divine doctor?
Who was this person that could actually make Duke Ning, who would remain calm and collected even if Mount Tai collapsed in front of him, so agitated that he lost his composure?
They saw a young man in a wheelchair slowly appear in front of everyone.
He was only in his twenties and had a delicate and pretty face. He wore a half-worn linen gown and was dressed very simply. However, his entire body exuded an aura of being aloof from the world. He was like an orchid that grew in a valley, proud and independent.
Chen Ning's eyes sparkled. She had already heard from Gu Qingze that he was coming to the palace banquet, but she never thought that he would actually come.
