Chapter 119 Everyone Lost Their Memory?
Emperor Chengtian did not expect that he would meet Jingzhao Prefecture Governor Zhang Quanhe so soon.
I always feel that it will take at least three or five days before he can see him and the memorial he wrote.
Unexpectedly, after just one day and one night, he was already standing in front of him.
Because of what happened at the grand court meeting, Emperor Chengtian simply took a day off, simply because there were too many officials absent, which was truly unprecedented.
With so many people missing, all departments of the court need to be thoroughly cleaned up.
At this time, Zhang Quanhe actually came to ask for a meeting.
In the past, officials of Zhang Quanhe's rank could not easily see the Emperor unless he was summoned personally.
He didn't even have to go on days like the grand court meetings.
However, this matter was special, and Emperor Chengtian had already given instructions long ago. If Zhang Quanhe wanted to see him, he should be summoned directly.
After Eunuch Guo summoned him in, he handed over all the written memorials, transcribed testimonies, and confessions.
What Emperor Chengtian is holding in his hand now is the list of all the people involved in this accident.
At first, he only knew that there were a lot of people, but after taking a closer look at the list, Emperor Chengtian felt like his chest was starting to feel suffocated.
He even saw Princess Jiahe's name in the list.
If he didn't want to maintain his imperial dignity, he would have wanted to tear the whole thing into pieces!
I patiently read to the end of the list.
The previous pages were filled with words, but why is there only a code on the last page, and nothing else?!
"Who are these eleven people?!" Emperor Chengtian handed the page to Zhang Quanhe.
"Your Majesty, the identities of these eleven people are unknown for the time being. I have sent people to investigate, but no one knows them."
"What about themselves?! Don't they know who they are?!" Emperor Chengtian resisted the urge to slap the letter in someone's face.
Zhang Quanhe raised his hand to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead and said, "Your Majesty, these people were unconscious like everyone else. After they woke up, I sent people to inquire about their identities, but... but they all seemed to have lost their memories and didn't remember who they were, what their names were, or where they lived."
Although it's a bit unbelievable, it's the fact.
He had imprisoned these eleven people in solitary confinement, and had originally intended to use some tricks on them, but when they woke up, they all had lost their memories.
This is really God’s help!
This is what Zhang Quanhe thought at the time.
Whatever humans do will always leave traces.
And the current situation is just right, he doesn't need to do anything. He just needs to report the truth.
As the saying goes, it is better to have less things to do than more.
Emperor Chengtian was obviously a little bit unconvinced. How could such a coincidence happen in the world? One or two would be fine.
These eleven people lost their memory together? !
This is not the book told by the storyteller.
"Didn't you ask a doctor to check them out?!" There was obvious distrust in his tone.
"Your Majesty, as soon as these eleven people woke up, I found the best doctor in the capital to treat them." You can't just accuse him of this, he really did invite more than one doctor.
After all, in addition to amnesia, these people also have different physical injuries.
Some had broken ribs, some had broken limbs, and some even became eunuchs.
If they are not treated properly, and if they die, things will become even more complicated.
"What does the doctor say?!"
"Your Majesty, the doctor said that they all suffered from the collateral damage caused by the severe injuries." Zhang Quanhe did not understand medical principles, so he could only repeat the doctor's words to Emperor Chengtian.
Emperor Chengtian did not respond immediately after hearing this, but said to Eunuch Guo, "Go and call the chief judge of the Imperial Hospital to come to me."
Eunuch Guo naturally understood what Emperor Chengtian meant, and immediately sent someone to summon the chief judge of the Imperial Medical Bureau.
While waiting for the judge Cheng, Emperor Chengtian was not idle either. He asked about everything Zhang Quanhe presented.
The more he asked, the more a sense of conspiracy swirled in his mind.
These two hundred people seemed to have appeared out of thin air, leaving no trace at all.
Moreover, the attackers were brutal, and none of the two hundred people were left intact. All of them were injured to varying degrees.
Dozens more died due to serious injuries.
"Zhang Qing, who do you think was responsible for this?" Emperor Chengtian discovered that Zhang Quanhe had written everything in the documents he presented, including the conditions and terms, but he did not write the conclusion.
"I don't know." Zhang Quanhe bent his waist even more and lowered his head even lower.
"You don't know?!" Emperor Chengtian finally couldn't help but threw the letter in front of Zhang Quanhe. "If you don't know, no one else in the entire court knows!"
Even at this time, you are still playing tricks on him.
Do you all think that he is easy to bully? Is it only the Queen Mother who can suppress them?
Zhang Quanhe knelt down with a thump, lowering his head, "Your Majesty, please calm down. I deserve to die."
"'It's no use kneeling! If you can't give me a clear answer today, I won't ask you to die a thousand times, just one death will do!"
Zhang Quanhe wanted to tremble, but he forced himself to hold it back. At this point, he was going to die anyway, so he might as well just go for it.
He knelt on the ground and slowly told Emperor Chengtian what he had discussed with Li Zhengyang in the mansion before, slightly embellishing it.
He spoke very slowly, and while he was speaking, he secretly observed Emperor Chengtian's expression with his peripheral vision.
However, until he finished speaking, Emperor Chengtian did not show any special expression. Instead, he seemed more relaxed than before.
Zhang Quanhe was a little unsure of his majesty's thoughts for a moment.
After all, he had only met His Majesty a few times, so how could he really understand him?
Just at this moment, Cheng Yuanpan from the Imperial Medical Bureau was brought over.
After the young eunuch reported outside and got permission, he let Cheng Yuanpan in sideways.
When Cheng Yuanpan entered the imperial study, he first knelt down to pay his respects to Emperor Chengtian, and then waited aside, awaiting instructions.
On the way here, he had secretly inquired with the young eunuch and learned that this summons was probably to ask some questions, not to take the patient's pulse.
Emperor Chengtian glanced over and Eunuch Guo immediately understood.
He then told him the doctors' diagnoses that Zhang Quanhe had mentioned before, and asked him to judge the credibility of the matter.
Traditional Chinese medicine emphasizes observation, auscultation, questioning and palpation. Dr. Cheng did not even see the patient, so naturally he did not dare to make any comments.
Finally, Emperor Chengtian asked him to go to Jingzhao Prefecture with Zhang Quanhe to take a good look at those people, and after returning, he should tell him the details of their situation.
