Ms. Doctor Divine Chapter 1760

1760 Junyi’s Visit 5

“Or perhaps you are merely pursuing your own agenda, using any means necessary to achieve it. The previous Crown Prince was foolish enough not to realize that he was being manipulated by you. But the King will not allow himself to be controlled in such a manner,” Gu Chaoyan said with straightforward honesty.

With her words spoken, she instructed the servants to escort Junyi out of the palace.

Junyi was left feeling perplexed by the situation.

He couldn’t comprehend the complexity of it all. He couldn’t understand why, despite being acknowledged as someone with exceptional abilities and the potential to offer much-needed a.s.sistance, he was not being hired.

Lost in his thoughts, Junyi wandered aimlessly through the halls of the Saint Divine Land’s palace. The realization sank in that the King’s decision meant that no matter what he did or achieved, there would be no reward or recognition awaiting him. His greatest competence had seemingly become futile in this context.

Was it all for his life?

Was he unable to prove himself?

So his whole belief collapsed like this? What was the point of living then?

Junyi was walking in distress.

Then, he suddenly paused and exclaimed in surprise. “It is you!”

“…”

“What are you doing here?”

He just could not believe his eyes.

Xie Yan, who had once been hunted down by the previous Crown Prince and left severely injured, must have endured a difficult life, hidden away in some remote corner of the world.

It was perplexing to see him in the court, appearing well-dressed and exuding an air of n.o.bility. He even had a retinue of servants attending to him.

Why?

Why?

What was he doing here?

Junyi did not understand.

Xie Yan saw Junyi too.

He was quite surprised that he ran into Junyi here. The previous Crown Prince was already dead, and he could have left, if he had not killed himself too.

What was he doing in the court?

Xie Yan was going to visit the Queen and have tea with her. That was why he ran into him.

“It is indeed a momentous occasion, the crowning ceremony for the new King and Queen, an event that occurs only once in a lifetime.They are not only my saviors but also my dear friends, so it is only natural for me to be present here.Besides, the weather is delightful today, and The Queen’s maid informed me that a new variety of tea has been introduced in the court. She kindly invited me to join her for a cup.”

Junyi couldn’t help but feel incredulous. What was happening? It appeared that he wasn’t the King’s strategist, but Xie Yan had a close friends.h.i.+p with the King after all

Why?

What did he do?

Didn’t he work for the previous Crown Prince too? Why was he not inquired about the so-called devotion?

As Junyi’s chest continued to ache faintly, he struggled to maintain his composure, his voice strained. Through gritted teeth, he questioned, “What is happening? Why?”

Xie Yan sighed softly before answering, his expression filled with a mix of grat.i.tude and determination. “I was pursued by Lord Huai and Miss Gu when I unexpectedly crossed paths with them. They sought information about the Crown Prince from me, but I refused to comply. Surprisingly, they chose to rescue me instead. Through subsequent encounters and interactions, our paths became intertwined. And that is why I find myself here. I have done nothing extraordinary. It was merely a matter of sharing tea and receiving medical treatment from Elder Miss Gu.”

” “…”

“Junyi, what about you? What are you doing here in the court? Are you trying to get hired by the new King? He must have turned you down.”
