Evil Doctor Princess - Chapter 129
Chapter 129 Clash with the Empress Dowager
Zhao Chang stopped Yin Xun and said, “Ninth Prince, you mustn’t be impulsive!”
Lu Kang walked behind the white veil and said, “Master, we still don’t know what the Empress Dowager wants to do. Master must not be in a state of chaos.”
Yin Xun stood where he was, his expression uncertain. Chief Zhao was on the verge of tears.
“Master, sit down first and listen to this subordinate.” Lu Kang looked at Yin Xun’s expression and said carefully.
Yin Xun hesitated for a moment, then turned around and sat back down. He looked at Lu Kang and said, “Speak.”
‘”This subordinate feels that the Empress Dowager already knew the whereabouts of her master when she first left Xuchang for Luoyang. She should also know the relationship between her master and Miss Bai. Otherwise, why would the Empress Dowager suddenly cause trouble for Miss Bai?” Lu Kang thought for a while and said, “This subordinate feels that the Empress Dowager has already known her whereabouts when she first left Xuchang for Luoyang.”
“How can we save her?” Yin Xun asked.
Lu Kang calmly analyzed, “The Empress Dowager wants her master to marry the second young miss of the Fu Clan. She also knows the relationship between Miss Bai and her master. Because of her master, she shouldn’t harm Miss Bai.” Moreover, if the Empress Dowager really sent someone to investigate Miss Bai, she should know that her medical skills are indeed unparalleled in the world. The epidemic situation in Chang’an City may really be entrusted to Miss Bai, and the Empress Dowager will not do anything to Miss Bai. ”
“Right, right. Don’t worry, Ninth Prince. Miss Bai is lucky and will be safe!” Zhao Chang hurriedly answered.
Yin Xun lowered his eyes as if he was thinking of something. After a long time, he knocked on the table and said, “Before Youshi, no matter what, she must leave Jingyang Palace safely.”
“This subordinate will think of a way.” Lu Kang frowned and looked at Zhao Chang. Zhao Chang’s heart tightened as he followed Lu Kang out.
Outside, Zhao Chang hesitated and said, “Lord Lu, do you have any ideas? Do you need this servant’s help?”
Lu Kang nodded. Seeing his nervous expression, he smiled and said, “It’s not a big deal. I need father-in-law to see someone. If she is willing to help, I think Miss Bai can leave Jing Yang Palace before noon.”
“Who?”
Lu Kang lowered his voice and said, “Imperial Concubine Shu.”
Chief Zhao seemed to be in a bit of a dilemma and said uncertainly, “Your Highness, I’m afraid you won’t save Miss Bai for the Ninth Prince, right?”
“This is not for His Highness,” Lu Kang said unhurriedly. “This is for His Majesty.”
Zhao Chang hesitated for a long time before nodding solemnly, “Alright, this servant will go and ask Consort Shu for help.”

In Jing Yang Palace, Bai Junzhuo knelt for half an hour and his legs went numb. Only then did he see the Empress Dowager waving her hand as if nothing had happened and saying, “Get up.”
Bai Junzhuo stood up, his legs aching and his movements staggered.
The Empress Dowager saw that she could not stand firmly and said, “Sit down.”
The palace maid hurriedly brought the stool over.
Bai Junzhuo hesitated for a moment. Just now, the Empress Dowager had been looking for trouble with her and made her kneel for a long time. Now, she was given a seat. What the hell was going on?
She glanced at the mahogany chair beside her, with a beautiful cushion on it. Don’t tell me there’s a nail in the cushion? Probably not. The Empress Dowager doesn’t look like such a childish person.
She pondered for a while, then slowly walked over and sat down. She lowered her head and did not speak.
“Raise your head and let the Ai Clan take a look.” The Empress Dowager’s tone at this moment was not as cold and gentle as it had been in the main hall just now, making it difficult for people to guard against it.
Bai Junzhuo raised his head to look at her. The Empress Dowager sized her up for a moment and asked, “Is the Ai Clan very scary?”
Bai Junzhuo was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly shook his head and said, “The Empress Dowager is dignified and dignified. How can she be terrifying under the heavens?”
The Empress Dowager smiled and asked, “Since that’s the case, why do you look so frightened?”
Bai Junzhuo stirred up the corner of his clothes and explained, “The peasant girl has never seen the world before, so she is nervous. I hope the Empress Dowager will forgive me.”
“Haha,” the Empress Dowager looked at her and said, “Miracle Doctor White’s daughter has seen the world before.”
Bai Junzhuo was stunned again. It turned out that her father was so famous.
“How can the Empress Dowager be seen by ordinary people? This is the first time a commoner girl has seen the Empress Dowager. She is so panicked that she simply doesn’t know what to say.”
“Since you’re panicking, why are you staring at the Ai Clan?” The Empress Dowager said with a smile, as if she was interested in Bai Junzhuo.
“The appearance of a Grand Houtian makes people unable to move their eyes.”
“Look at your mouth.” The Empress Dowager’s tone became more and more friendly. She changed her sitting position to face her and asked, “Did the Ninth Prince bring you here?”
Bai Junzhuo thought for a moment and shook his head, “Lord Lu brought me here. The Ninth Prince is still in Xuchang, isn’t he?”
The Empress Dowager’s smile disappeared and she suddenly said coldly, “If you lie to the Ai Clan again, you’ll drag them out and cut them down.”
Bai Junzhuo was shocked. Emma was too terrifying!
The Empress Dowager was even more tyrannical than the Emperor. Moreover, the speed at which her face changed was simply unpredictable to humans. She was so scared!
“Honestly answer the Ai Clan. Is the person in the West Inner Garden Hall the Ninth Prince or the Emperor?” The Empress Dowager asked coldly.
Although she was asking, her tone was clearly already known, so she was probably just testing her. Bai Junzhuo hesitated for a moment before honestly replying, “It’s the Ninth Prince.”
“Where’s the Emperor?”
“I don’t know.” Bai Junzhuo shook his head.
“How dare you!” The empress dowager slammed the table. Bai Junzhuo immediately knelt down and said repeatedly, “Min Nu really doesn’t know. Min Nu was only brought here by Lord Lu to treat His Majesty. When she came yesterday, she was still His Majesty. Today, she became the Ninth Prince. The empress dowager must believe her words. How dare she lie to the empress dowager?”
The Empress Dowager was secretly surprised when she saw that although she was very panicked, there was not the slightest trace of panic on her face. After a long time, he regained his composure and waved his hand, “Get up.”
Bai Junzhuo supported the chair and sat back down.
The Empress Dowager took a sip of tea and then asked, “How old are you this year?”
“Go back to the Empress Dowager. The maiden is almost seventeen.”
The Empress Dowager nodded slightly and said, “It’s not bad for a seventeen-year-old girl to have your attitude. No wonder Xun’er likes you.”
Yin Xun also knew that he liked her? Did this Empress Dowager open up a God’s perspective?
She hurriedly said, “The maiden doesn’t dare. The maiden actually … actually …”
Actually, Bai Junzhuo couldn’t think of anything else.
“According to your status, it’s not impossible for you to marry Xun’er as a concubine in the future. It’s just that you don’t have any background in the palace. Jing, you will inevitably be bullied.” The Empress Dowager said earnestly, “This girl of yours is quite favored by the Ai Clan. If you can cure the plague in the Imperial City, how about the Ai Clan take you in as their adopted daughter?”
Bai Junzhuo rolled his eyes silently in his heart and accepted her as his foster daughter. Wasn’t she a side concubine? She had promised Yin Xun that she would be the only one in his life.
Although he was complaining in his heart, Bai Junzhuo raised his head and said with a flattered expression, “The Empress Dowager is so loving that she deserves it. The maiden will definitely try her best to solve the calamity in the Imperial City.”
“Yes.” The Empress Dowager was satisfied with her performance and asked, “Do you know how to ride a horse?”
“Yes.” Bai Junzhuo smiled and nodded.
“Where are the zither, chess, calligraphy and painting?”
“I understand a little bit,” Bai Jun replied calmly. “But compared to the young ladies of aristocratic families in the Imperial City, these things of the Min Girls Association are really worthless.”
The Empress Dowager smiled even more kindly and continued to ask insignificant questions.
Bai Junzhuo could also tell that she was stalling for time. She probably wanted Yin Xun to come over and cause trouble for her, so she took the opportunity to bite Yin Xun and the Emperor back.
As Bai Junzhuo replied to her words, he muttered in his heart, “Master Yin, you must not be fooled!”
The two of them were about to chat until noon when a nanny suddenly came in and said to the Empress Dowager with a happy expression, “Congratulations, Empress Dowager. The people from the Grand Hospital just reported that Consort Shu is happy.”
The Empress Dowager was both surprised and delighted. She quickly stood up and said, “Hurry up and drive. The Ai Clan will go see Consort Shu now.”
Seeing this, Bai Junzhuo took the opportunity to say, “Empress Dowager, there’s nothing wrong with the maids. Can you leave the palace now?”
The Empress Dowager glanced at her and smiled, “The Ai Clan still wants to talk to you. Stay in Jing Yang Palace and wait for the Ai Clan to return.”
Holy shit, can this Empress Dowager be more shameless?
After the Empress Dowager finished speaking, she left the Jing Yang Palace under the crowd of servants.
Bai Junzhuo watched her leave silently and sat down helplessly.
Not long after, the Empress Dowager arrived at Imperial Concubine Shu’s Rain Will Hall. Imperial Concubine Shu was lying weakly on the bed. Seeing the Empress Dowager enter, she hurriedly wanted to come down to salute. The Empress Dowager hurriedly stopped her and said, “Now that you are pregnant, let’s not bother with this empty gift.”
Imperial Concubine Shu stroked her lower abdomen and smiled, “However, she is only two months old. If she does not salute, she will not be gossiped about by others and will feel that her concubines are pampered and arrogant.”
“With the Ai Clan here, who dares to gossip about you?” The Empress Dowager held her hand and sighed, “The Fu Clan has always been ashamed of you all these years. You are still fighting hard and did not disappoint the Ai Clan.”
“Daddy gave birth to a concubine is a great kindness. How can I say that I’m ashamed of this concubine? This concubine still feels that it’s my fault for not showing filial respect to him by Daddy’s side for so many years.” Imperial Concubine Shu said softly. Suddenly, she covered her lower abdomen and said, “Aiya, I don’t know why, but this concubine’s lower abdomen suddenly hurts so much. Is it a fetus …”
“What’s the matter?” Before she could finish her sentence, the Empress Dowager immediately instructed, “Call over all the imperial physicians from the imperial hospital!”
The servants hurriedly went out. Soon, all the imperial physicians rushed over and examined Imperial Concubine Shu one by one. After working for half a day, the imperial physician’s head was covered in sweat. They all said that Imperial Concubine Shu’s fetus was very stable and there was nothing wrong with it. I wonder why this sudden pain happened.
Imperial concubine Shu impatiently supported her chest and gasped for breath, “Mother, this concubine really hurts. I’m afraid it’s this child …”
“Don’t talk nonsense!” The Empress Dowager hurriedly interrupted her. She turned around and angrily said to the imperial physician, “You bunch of quacks. If there is anything wrong with Imperial Concubine Shu, the Ai family will definitely cut off the heads of your nine races!”
The imperial physicians all knelt on the ground, not daring to breathe out.
Imperial Concubine Shu saw this and waited for the Empress Dowager to calm down. She weakly said, “Mother, I heard from His Majesty yesterday that Lord Lu brought a medical woman with outstanding medical skills into the palace. May I ask her to come over and take a look for me?”
