Chapter 2578

"Where is Nuannuan?" Zhu Yanyi asked Zhu Zhibin.

"In the capital," Zhu Zhibin sighed. "I like the air here, so I came. She likes the capital, so let her stay there."

Zhu Zhibin’s tone seemed casual, but Zhu Yanyi did not think it was that simple. "Don't tell me she did this to your legs."

Zhu Zhibin’s body trembled slightly. He stayed silent.

Zhu Yanyi took a deep breath. "Zhu Zhibin, you are my brother. You are a genius. Don't tell me you failed to handle your family matters. The backyard is on fire."

Zhu Zhibin smiled bitterly. "I focus on research, but I also care for my family. Sometimes, when research starts, I cannot attend to the family. It is understandable if she has other thoughts."

"You are very generous," Zhu Yanyi sneered. "But I cannot understand this. Did you divorce?"

"Yes," Zhu Zhibin said helplessly. "Xi Bei personally supervised and helped me with it."

Zhu Yanyi hummed. Then she seemed to realize something. "Wait. Did Xi Bei not help you get justice?"

"It is a marital dispute. How can one get justice?" Zhu Zhibin’s face was pale.

Zhu Yanyi looked at Zhu Zhibin. For a long time, she spoke without expression. "Zhibin, tell me. Did Xi Bei lead this?"

Zhu Zhibin forced a smile. "Sister, why would you think that?"

"It is simple. If Xi Bei really helped you, and Nuannuan harmed you, he would surely punish Nuannuan because you are his uncle. But the fact is he did not. He only watched you divorce. What does this mean? It means he is not fair. Who is this unfairness against? Why do it? There is only one reason: to cover up what he did."

Zhu Yanyi looked at Zhu Zhibin. "Zhibin, you are my brother. Tell me directly. Speak."

"Sister…" Zhu Zhibin’s lips trembled. He did not know how to speak.

Zhu Yanyi looked at her. She understood everything. Zhu Zhibin thought Yan Xi Bei was her son, so she could stay silent. She suffered grievances but said little. Here, Zhu Yanyi took a deep breath. "Husband, I want to know the truth."

Yan Aohan hummed. She spread her left hand. The Earth Book appeared. Instantly, a video appeared before Zhu Yanyi.

In the video, Yan Xi Bei said to Nuannuan, "Aunt, as long as you do this, I will oversee your divorce. You can leave Huaxia."

Nuannuan looked at Yan Xi Bei. After a while, she said, "But sir, Zhibin is your uncle."

"I know. But he knows too much. He created too many things. He only thinks of serving the people. But some things cannot face the world. I really want to destroy his brain. But that would be too obvious. So I made him paralyzed. He cannot walk. Then he will step down from his position. This achieves my goal."

Yan Xi Bei sighed. "Mom and Dad have hidden from the world. I naturally hope my uncle lives to a natural death. But the premise is he must step down. As long as he steps down, everything is negotiable."

"Scoundrel." Zhu Yanyi saw this. She knew everything. Her face was full of anger. "Good. I originally wanted to give her a way out. Now it is unnecessary."

Zhu Yanyi originally planned to give the General Advisor Alliance to Yan Xi Bei. Now it was unnecessary. Since she was so ruthless, she did not need to consider her.

"Wife, do not be angry," Yan Aohan comforted Zhu Yanyi. "Her position cannot have too much emotion. This is also one of the imperial arts. Although we cannot accept it, we must admit she is a qualified imperial talent."

"Let her be an emperor. I will pretend I do not have this son." Zhu Yanyi finished speaking. She turned to Zhu Zhibin. "First, I will treat your legs. Then we must settle the accounts."

Since Yan Xi Bei did not want to be her son, she would not be. Zhu Yanyi originally planned to pass all the inheritance of the General Advisor Alliance to Yan Xi Bei. Now it was unnecessary. She thought for a moment, looked at Zhu Zhibin, and had an idea. Then she turned to Yan Aohan.

Yan Aohan did not know Zhu Yanyi’s idea. But Yan Xi Bei’s matter made anger flash in her eyes because Yan Xi Bei made Zhu Yanyi angry. "Since she does not want to be my son, then my son does not need her." She flicked her hand toward the empty air.

Yan Aohan’s flick was not empty. He mainly cut the luck between himself and Yan Xi Bei.

Because Yan Xi Bei was his nominal eldest son, the Emperor’s luck could influence Yan Xi Bei to some extent. Yan Xi Bei’s smooth path was partly due to the Emperor’s luck.

Now, Yan Aohan cut the luck between the Emperor and Yan Xi Bei. Even if Yan Xi Bei wanted to be emperor, he would follow normal succession rules. Originally, connected to the Emperor’s luck, he could be emperor for life. Now it was impossible.

Zhu Yanyi ignored Yan Aohan’s interference. She spoke to Zhu Renjie beside her. "Renjie, push your grandfather in. I will treat her legs. Also, do not tell others that your great-uncle and I are here."

"Yes." Zhu Renjie did not know why Zhu Yanyi did not want others to know, but she nodded obediently.

Zhu Yanyi nodded slightly. "Do you study traditional Chinese medicine or Western medicine?"

"I study Western medicine. Actually, I also study traditional Chinese medicine, but I do not have much talent in it," Zhu Renjie said shyly.

Zhu Yanyi smiled. "Come in. Be my assistant."

"Yes." Zhu Renjie’s eyes lit up.

To see the legendary divine doctor operate, and to see her operate on her grandfather, was a feeling of indescribable pride.

Zhu Yanyi used gold needles to anesthetize Zhu Zhibin. She said, "Do you understand acupuncture points in traditional Chinese medicine?"

"I can read the acupuncture point map. I have also memorized it," Zhu Renjie said. His foundation was good.

"In traditional Chinese medicine, there are two ways to anesthetize. One is drug anesthesia, using Mafeisan. This is often used in traditional Chinese surgery. The other is gold needle passing through points, stimulating the body’s numb points."

Zhu Yanyi spoke while pointing to the numb points. "Some people are allergic to anesthesia drugs. Then neither Western anesthetics nor Mafeisan can be used. The only option is gold needle acupuncture. But you are not familiar with traditional Chinese medicine. When learning to puncture points on models, you can use silver needles, but not iron needles. Do you know why?"
