“You are the one who is blind to me!”
“I am Prince Mathew’s chief personal physician, and also your direct superior. In front of your superior, you not only fail to show respect, but you dare to provoke me. This is outrageous!”
Jiang Yi said in a deep voice.
“Bah, what superior are you? A damn superior!”
The personal physician spat at Jiang Yi. The spittle landed on Jiang Yi’s shoe, looking utterly disgusting.
“Clean my shoes!”
Jiang Yi said in a deep voice.
“Make me clean your shoes? You must be dreaming. You, worthy of cleaning my shoes? What are you?”
The personal physician was exceedingly arrogant, showing no regard for Jiang Yi whatsoever.
Even the Great Lord Barré beside them couldn’t stand it!
“Slap!”
Jiang Yi raised his hand and slapped the personal physician. “Shut your mouth!”
The slap instantly caused half of the personal physician’s face to swell.
“Good heavens, you’ve got the guts of a bear and the gall of a leopard to dare hit me!”
The personal physician glared fiercely at Jiang Yi, then strode into the hall, preparing to complain to Prince Mathew.
Jiang Yi and Great Lord Barré followed him in.
Upon reaching Prince Mathew, the personal physician immediately turned to him with a wronged expression and began to complain.
“Prince Mathew, you must deliver justice for me! Jiang Yi is simply an arrogant and overbearing scoundrel. He was late, and when I spoke to him a couple of times, he directly attacked me and slapped me!”
Hearing this, Prince Mathew’s brow furrowed.
“Jiang Yi, did you really lay hands on him?”
Prince Mathew looked at Jiang Yi and asked.
“That’s right, I did lay hands on him!”
“However, the situation is not as he describes. I discovered his secret collusion with assassins. I encountered him at the entrance of the hall just now and wanted to inquire about the matter.”
“But I never expected that not only would he deny it, but he would also spout nonsense. I couldn’t stand it any longer, so I slapped him!”
Jiang Yi stated directly.
Great Lord Barré was stunned. He hadn’t expected Jiang Yi to be such a good storyteller, directly linking the personal physician with assassins.
Prince Mathew detested assassins who attempted to assassinate him the most. He would show no mercy to anyone connected with assassins, having eliminated them all.
The personal physician’s face turned pale with fear. He hadn’t anticipated Jiang Yi’s move, catching him completely off guard.
“Prince Mathew, I am being framed. Jiang Yi is slandering me out of thin air!”
“I have served you for so many years, how could I possibly do such a thing? My loyalty to you is as clear as the sun and moon!”
The personal physician hastily said to Prince Mathew.
Prince Mathew was no fool. Without evidence, he would not believe anyone.
He did not trust Jiang Yi, nor did he trust the personal physician.
“Prince Mathew, Great Lord Barré was present just now, he can testify!”
The personal physician quickly said.
Upon hearing this, Prince Mathew’s gaze fell upon Great Lord Barré, and he asked about the situation.
“Great Lord Barré, I have heard that you are a just and upright person. I hope you will not show favoritism to anyone and tell me truthfully what happened at the entrance of the hall just now!”
“Yes!”
Great Lord Barré responded, then began to speak, “Just now, after I brought Jiang Yi to the entrance of the hall, Jiang Yi inquired with the personal physician about those assassins.”
“To our surprise, the personal physician, enraged, began to curse Jiang Yi profusely. In a fit of anger, Jiang Yi slapped him!”
Hearing this, the personal physician was dumbfounded!
He never imagined that even Great Lord Barré would be siding with Jiang Yi in framing him.
The personal physician didn’t know that Jiang Yi and Great Lord Barré had already joined forces, and Great Lord Barré was naturally going to stand with Jiang Yi.
“Do you have anything else to say?”
Prince Mathew stared at the personal physician and asked.
“Prince Mathew, I am wronged! Great Lord Barré is clearly in league with Jiang Yi!”
The personal physician continued to argue.
“You speak recklessly!”
Great Lord Barré frowned and said to the personal physician, then added something else to Prince Mathew.
“Prince Mathew, I have been suspicious of him for quite some time. Previously, when two groups of assassins came to assassinate you, I discovered during the elimination of those assassins that they seemed to already know the castle’s defenses.”
“I found this matter to be peculiar, so I secretly investigated people entering and leaving the castle during this period. I discovered that he entered and exited the most frequently, and each time he was acting suspiciously!”
“Therefore, his suspicion is too great, but I lacked evidence and dared not report it!”
These words made the personal physician’s face extremely ugly.
“Rascal!”
Prince Mathew directly cursed the personal physician in anger.
The personal physician hurriedly explained, “Prince Mathew, I am innocent! I left the castle to find a detective agency to investigate Jiang Yi, and this matter was even you…”
“Shut up! You’ve done something like this and you’re still making excuses, it’s utterly detestable!”
Prince Mathew interrupted the personal physician.
Prince Mathew hadn’t expected the personal physician, in a desperate attempt to save his own life, to reveal his investigation into Jiang Yi!
Prince Mathew had originally intended to spare the personal physician’s life, but his words forced Prince Mathew to kill him!
“Guards, take him away and execute him immediately!”
Prince Mathew roared in anger.
“Yes!”
Two armored soldiers entered from outside the hall and, like dragging a dead pig, hauled the personal physician away.
The personal physician kept shouting that he was innocent!
A few minutes later, the personal physician’s shouts abruptly ceased; he had been executed.
Jiang Yi couldn’t help but sneer inwardly.
Dealing with a personal physician was not a difficult task for him.
“This is the consequence of betraying me!”
Prince Mathew said coldly.
Jiang Yi understood that Prince Mathew was speaking to him.
Prince Mathew still harbored suspicions about him, and these words were meant to deter him, to ensure he obediently continued to treat him.
“I heard you’ve been very busy these past few days. What have you been occupied with?”
Prince Mathew looked at Jiang Yi.
“Replying to Prince Mathew, I have been busy developing a restorative medicine for your skin. To expedite its development, I have been confined indoors these past few days, not seeing anyone!”
Jiang Yi replied.
“Very good!”
Prince Mathew nodded, then asked, “How is the research progressing? When will it be completed?”
Prince Mathew was growing impatient!
“I have made significant breakthroughs now. I hope Prince Mathew can give me a little more time!”
Jiang Yi said.
These words displeased Prince Mathew somewhat, as Jiang Yi had said them many times before.
