Evil Doctor Princess - Chapter 10
Chapter 010 Selling Medicine Also Sells Oneself
At night, when the moonlight was dim, Lizi ran in from outside the courtyard. He knocked on Bai Junzhuo’s door and said, “Miss, the two young masters who went to buy ginseng during the day want to see you. Do you want them to come in?”
When Bai Junzhuo heard this, he put on the cloak that was placed by the side of his bed and walked out with Xingzi.
Xingzi said to Lizi, “Take them to the front room. Miss wants to see them.”
Lizi went out and opened the door for them, Moments later, everyone met in the front hall. There was no formality. Mo Ying casually dragged a stool for his master to sit on. After the man sat down, he looked up at Bai Junzhuo and said calmly, “I have a good relationship with Lord Ma. I heard from Lord Ma that the medicinal ingredients of the Bai Clan were seized. Is Miss Bai inviting me here for this matter?”
Hearing what the man said, Lizi and Xingzi were both shocked. So it was their young miss who took the initiative to invite this person …
Bai Junzhuo nodded.
The man added, “Since Miss Bai’s words are inconvenient, I know what Miss Bai wants, so I won’t waste my breath. I can say hello to Lord Ma and let the medicinal ingredients from your Bai Clan come in. I can also give you enough money to help you pay off the debts you owe the Bai Clan and help you get back on your feet.”
Xingzi had a grudge against the man who wanted to kill him, but now that he heard him say this, he looked at Bai Junzhuo with a face full of joy. Then, he immediately went over and poured him a cup of tea.
Bai Junzhuo wasn’t as happy as Xingzi. This condition was too tempting. Even if Bai Junzhuo said that he wasn’t interested, he wouldn’t believe it. Of course, she also knew that this man had conditions.
Her expression was calm, and she didn’t say anything more, indicating for the man to continue.
“Of course there are conditions,” the man smiled. “That is, from now on, everything in the Bai Clan, including you, will be mine.”
When Bai Junzhuo heard this, his long eyes lowered slightly. He did not say anything, but Lizi’s face turned pale. He immediately objected, “What do you mean by helping young miss? It is clear that you are taking advantage of the situation to occupy everything in the Bai Clan …”
However, Riko’s tone weakened as she spoke. What was there to occupy the Bai Clan like this?
Xingzi said angrily, “I thought you were a good person, but I didn’t expect you to be a bad person. Miss, you can’t sell the Bai Clan to him!”
After saying that, Xingzi went over and took away the cup of tea that he had just poured for him.
The man ignored the two of them and looked at Bai Junzhuo. “How is it, Miss Bai? Do you still need time to think about it?”
How could there be time for her to think about it?
Bai Junzhuo lowered his eyes slightly. After thinking for a while, he raised his head and smiled at the man. Then, he stood up and made a “please” gesture to the two of them. Mo Ying’s expression changed slightly, but his master still had an indifferent expression.
After the two of them walked out, Lizi slammed the door shut. Mo Ying said angrily, “Master, this Miss Bai is too ungrateful. Should we kill them …”
“Let’s go back to the inn first.” The man’s expression was calm as he planned to say something to Mo Ying.
Mo Ying was not angry, but he could not disobey his master, so he could only return to the inn together.
Upon arriving at the inn, the man saw that Mo Ying was still filled with resentment. He raised his hand and raised the item in his hand, saying, “The deed to the Bai Clan’s Medicine Hall.”
Mo Ying asked in surprise, “Master, when did you get it?”
“Miss Bai gave it to me when she saw us off. From her point of view, the Bai Clan only has the Medicine Hall’s value now, so I’ve already prepared this for you.” The man put the things away and took a sip of a cup of herbal tea at the table. “Since the goal has been achieved, I have to do something for Miss Bai …” he said.
Just as he finished speaking, a black-clothed man carrying a large black cloth bag jumped in from the window. He put down the cloth bag and knelt in front of the man. “Master, Ma Lianzhou has brought it.”
The man waved his hand. The black-clothed man opened the cloth bag. Ma Lianzhou cursed and revealed his head, “You actually dared to kidnap me. I am the official of the Imperial Court. I will bring someone to snatch your entire family …”
The man put down the tea cup in his hand and said coldly, “Ma Lianzhou, you are so bold!”
Ma Lianzhou was stunned when he heard this voice. He closed his mouth and stopped cursing. Then, he opened his eyes wide and looked at the man in front of him. His face suddenly turned pale, as if a basin of ice water had been poured into his bones. He hurriedly knelt on the ground and shouted with a trembling voice,
“Nine … Nine … Ninth Prince!”
