Chapter 1144: Chapter 1144 War Prince

Imperial Doctor Wang: "Guard Long, for the sake of the Prince’s illness, please remove his mask so that we can assess his condition better. It will be beneficial for the Prince."

Long Yi’s expression changed abruptly, and he quickly said: "The Prince sustained injuries many years ago, and his face was damaged. It’s inappropriate for it to be exposed to the public."

"It’s of no consequence. We doctors, with compassionate hearts, care little about appearances." Before the crowd, Imperial Doctor Wang was determined to humiliate the Prince to amuse the Emperor.

Folklore said that the War Prince’s face was as grotesque as a ghost’s, and he had even scared several concubines to death.

They found this matter very intriguing.

What kind of disfigured face could frighten someone to death?

Over the years, they had only heard rumors but never witnessed it firsthand. Truth be told, there was a deep curiosity within everyone about the War Prince’s true appearance. They genuinely wished to see for themselves if the legends were as terrifying as they claimed.

Thus, none of the dozen Imperial Physicians uttered a word.

Long Yi glared at him fiercely.

The ambitious Imperial Doctor Wang, driven by greed and ambition, showed no fear, maintaining a composed and harmonious demeanor as he said: "Guard Long, inspection through observation, listening, questioning, and palpation is the most critical process for us doctors—none can be omitted. If you’re doubtful, you can ask the other doctors."

After saying this, he turned to the dozen Imperial Physicians and asked: "Everyone, isn’t what I said correct?"

The group’s curiosity was fully piqued by this topic, so they nodded in agreement, saying: "Yes, yes, Imperial Doctor Wang is absolutely right. Observation, listening, questioning, and palpation are essential principles for us doctors—it’s indispensable, truly indispensable!"

Clearly, they were relishing the spectacle without the slightest concern for propriety.

Yet, they pretended as if they were acting out of concern for the Prince’s welfare.

Long Yi smirked coldly within his heart. The Prince had anticipated this situation perfectly.

"Since the doctors insist on seeing, if I continue to hinder, I’ll become a traitor who harms the Prince." With that, he bent down and gently removed the mask from the Prince’s face.

Everyone held their breath, their eyes wide in anticipation...

The War Prince’s mask was taken off by Long Yi.

A hideous face was revealed—skin uneven and rough, marked by purple bruises and scars. It was indeed grotesque. Had they not mentally prepared themselves, they might have been frightened to the point of collapse.

"Hiss...!"

Even so, they couldn’t help but suck in a breath of cold air.

My heavens!

To think the mighty War Prince, usually so intimidating, would look so monstrous without his mask.

It seemed the rumors weren’t exaggerated—he truly deserved the title of Ghost King.

Seeing their stunned expressions, Long Yi couldn’t hold back a mocking remark: "So, gentlemen doctors, have you managed to diagnose Prince Chu’s condition?"

The Imperial Physicians were clearly shaken by the Prince’s appearance, and their responses were sluggish: "Huh? Guard Long, what did you say?"

"Didn’t you say observation, listening, questioning, and palpation were necessary? Now that the Prince has allowed you to observe him, surely you can diagnose what ails him?"

The Imperial Physicians looked uneasy: "Well, um...."

To be fair, the Prince’s face, covered in scars and uneven texture, left them with no patch of healthy skin to examine. It was truly impossible to discern his complexion.

"You’re all a bunch of quacks—pretending to know what you don’t. Get out of here, all of you!" Long Yi erupted in fury.

Imperial Doctor Wang glanced at Long Yi and said with a smirk: "Young man, I advise you to be more polite. Let me remind you, we were sent by the Emperor to treat the Prince. You’re just a servant—what right do you have to tell us to leave?"
