Eunuch Qian even stepped forward and held her down, leaving her no room to run.
Nanny Sun wanted to help, but she was kicked to the wall by King An.
“Don’t… wait! I know that Nanny Sun has a name list.” The little palace maid was so frightened that she closed her eyes and shouted.
“Name list? Where.” King An asked.
“Miaomiao!” Nanny Sun immediately shouted.
However, fear had already taken over the little palace maid’s heart, so she told King An where the name list was stored.
Eunuch Qian immediately ran out.
After he left, he caught a few more people, one after another. However, he did not interrogate them. Instead, he locked them up in the cell.
At the same time, to prevent Nanny Sun from committing suicide, King An also hung her up.
Nanny Sun’s eyes were already in so much pain that she almost fainted a few times after she was hung up.
However, she could not faint because of the pain.
She also did not dare to make any more moves.
About two hours later, Eunuch Qian captured another eight people, but this time, they were mainly eunuchs.
“Twenty-four people in total. We’ve captured all of them.”
“Good.” The Emperor took the list and glanced at it. Not only were their names there, but also their position, age, and speciality.
Their positions weren’t eye-catching. It seemed that it was specially arranged.
At the same time, he felt a lingering fear in his heart. There were so many people. If they were discovered too late, many more incidents might have happened.
He handed the name list to King An.
With the name list, the a.s.sa.s.sin, and Nanny Sun’s tragic state, it was much easier for the others to speak.
Soon, he discovered that the person who had thrown ice into the retired Emperor’s room was a little eunuch skilled at sneaking around.
Ultimately, Nanny Sun had nothing else to shoulder and gave out Consort Shu’s three spies.
Of course, the Emperor was happy to arrest them all.
They later found out about ten more people under Consort Shu.
From then on, all the spies of King Hui and King Kang were removed.
With a wave of his hand, the Emperor gave them all poisoned wine and buried them in the wilderness.
Zhou Ying, who had been paying attention to the palace, finally heaved a sigh of relief. At least Gu Wanning was now in a safer position.
In the blink of an eye, half a month had pa.s.sed. Gu Chengrui finally returned and handed the final vaccine data to the Emperor. “Replying to the Emperor, I did not disappoint you. The experiment this time has been successful. The experiment has proved that the human body more readily accepts a vaccine.
“Guard Chu and the others had already tried it, and they recovered in about three days.
“After that, we found some weak children and women. The recovery was slower, but it would only take seven days at most.”
“Did you really get smallpox and recover?” The Emperor looked at Guard Chu.
“Yes!” Guard Chu replied. He then stepped forward and unb.u.t.toned his shirt. He pulled it gently, revealing a small scar on his shoulder. “The only problem is that it will leave a scar.”
“It’s worth having such a small scar to eliminate the possibility of smallpox infection.” The Emperor laughed loudly.
This was the only happy thing that had happened in the past month. It was great news.
He looked at Gu Chengrui and asked, “Can’t the Eldest Princess get her vaccine now?”
“Let’s wait a little longer. It won’t be too late to take it when she can run all over the place and her body is stronger. It’ll save her from suffering.”
“Did you bring it? Give the vaccine to me now.” The Emperor put down the memorial.
“Emperor, you can’t. You have a body of gold; you must be careful. It’s better to let this servant do it. This way, you can also witness the effectiveness with your eyes.” Eunuch Qian immediately kneeled and stopped the Emperor..
