Evil Doctor Princess - Chapter 163
Chapter 163 Xiao San’s Goodwill
“Speaking of Big Sister Mingyue, I remember something important …”
The Empress Dowager asked curiously, “What is it?”
“Big Sister Mingyue was so ugly when she was young. Even the Taoist priests invited by her family told her that Big Sister Yue was possessed by a demon, so her father chased her out. Why is she so beautiful now?”
The Empress Dowager gave her a keen look, “What, are you unhappy that your sister came back and married into the palace instead of you?”
“Yunyue is not unhappy,” Fu Yunyue hurriedly shook her head and said, “I am grateful to my sister for coming back in time. Otherwise, I would not have had the chance to marry the Ninth Prince. I am just worried about my sister …”
The Empress Dowager looked at her for a moment, as if she understood something. She asked, “Do you think Ming Yue will hate you for what happened back then and take revenge on you after becoming the Empress?”
“I always feel that Big Sister Mingyue doesn’t like me,” Fu Yunyue worriedly said. “Otherwise, why didn’t she go back to see us once after entering the palace?”
“Don’t think nonsense.” The Empress Dowager clenched her fist and gently tapped Fu Yunyue’s head. “Mingyue is a concubine after all, so she naturally can’t leave the palace often. Remember, no matter what she says, she is still a member of the Fu Clan. Even if she has some gap with the members of the clan, she is not as important as the entire Fu Clan.”
After being taught a lesson, Fu Yunyue immediately smiled and hugged the Empress Dowager’s arm and said, “Auntie is wise. I’m relieved that Auntie said that.”
Only then did the Empress Dowager relax. She patted Fu Yunyue’s hand and said, “The same goes for you. After you enter Ninth King’s Mansion, you must be careful of everything. Don’t rush for quick results and benefits. Take your time. Sooner or later, the position of Ninth Princess will belong to you alone. Don’t be anxious, don’t offend Xun’er.”
Fu Yunyue sat down next to the Empress Dowager and said, “Auntie dotes on Ninth Prince too much. It seems that Ninth Prince doesn’t listen to you anymore.”
“Can you not pamper him? He is more than half the treasury of our Li Kingdom.” The Empress Dowager sighed and said, “Xun’er is a man of great affection. If one day you can restrain him, the Ai Clan will be overjoyed.”
Fu Yunyue smiled and said, “Auntie, don’t worry. I will let the Ninth Prince know how good I am and slowly fall in love with me.”

Yin Xun naturally could not conceal the matter of forcing marriage. After he told Bai Junzhuo about it, Bai Junzhuo revealed an unhappy expression.
She knew that Yin Xun was not willing, and also knew that Yin Xun did not like the girl from the Fu Clan. Even if she got her wish to marry into the palace, she would not have a good life. However, her heart was still filled with grievances.
Yin Xun looked at her for a long time, reached out and held her in his arms. He said seriously, “Let’s elope. There’s no place for people to live their lives like this.”
Bai Junzhuo listened to his heartbeat for a while and shook his head gently, “We still have a lot of things to do.”
“I have repeatedly disobeyed the Empress Dowager. This time, she is holding Shen Qing to threaten me …”
‘”I know,” Bai Junzhuo covered his mouth for a long time, then made up his mind, “Marry her. I know you treat me sincerely, that’s enough.”
Yin Xun nodded in silence.
The next morning, all the officials and civilians in Chang’an naturally did not know what had happened these days. They suddenly heard that the Ninth Prince was going to marry both Lord Fu’s daughter and Lord Bai of Minister Shangshu Province. They all envied his good fortune.
Outside, the Ninth Prince was overjoyed. The truly meaningful wedding ceremony had already been held last night, but today was just an act. Yin Xun’s exceptional cooperation made the Empress Dowager worry for nothing all day.
It was only after night did the guests disperse. Bai Junzhuo sat in his room and waited for Yin Xun. Soon, he heard someone knocking on the door.
She hurriedly went to open the door, but it wasn’t Yin Xun, but Fu Yunyue, who was dressed in the same clothes as herself.
When Bai Junzhuo first came to Chang’an, he had seen Fu Yunyue once. She still maintained the demeanor of a young lady from a large family in the devastated city, shopping and shopping all day long. Back then, Bai Junzhuo felt that he would never have any interaction with such a woman in his lifetime. He really didn’t expect that she would actually marry Yin Xun at the same time as him.
Bai Junzhuo didn’t even have the mood to pretend to be friendly and asked coldly, “What are you doing here?”
Fu Yunyue was not angry with Bai Junzhuo at all. Holding a beautiful sandalwood box, she smiled and said, “Today is my wedding day, and also your wedding day. I have my parents by my side and prepared everything for me, but you don’t have anything. Therefore, I will give this to you as your wedding present.”
Bai Junzhuo lowered his head to look at the box and said in an estranged tone, “Thank you, I can’t take Miss Fu’s gift.”
Fu Yunyue did not seem to hear her words. She pulled her hand and stuffed the box over, “Open it and see if you like it.”
“I said there’s no need.” Bai Junzhuo stuffed the box back in.
Seeing that Bai Junzhuo was resisting now, Fu Yunyue opened the box and took out the contents. She held it in her hand and said to Bai Junzhuo, “This is elegant and refined. The first time I saw you, I felt that you and this hairpin are especially compatible.”
After saying that, she reached out to insert the hairpin into Bai Junzhuo’s hair. Bai Junzhuo quickly dodged to the side and frowned, “I can’t afford it. I’m worthy of you.”
Seeing her like this, Fu Yunyue pouted and said, “I know that I forcefully interfered between you and the Ninth Prince. Of course, you are not happy.” But am I not? Do you think that I ruined your relationship with the Ninth Prince? “But I’ve known Ninth Prince since I was five years old. We’ve lived in Xuchang for so long, but I still think that you suddenly appeared and destroyed us!”
Oh, I can’t pretend anymore. Are you going to tear it apart?
Bai Jun raised his eyebrows, “So?”
“So we can’t get along well?” Fu Yunyue said somewhat wrongly, “The Empress Dowager told me yesterday that she must serve the Ninth Prince well with you. If the two of us are not harmonious, the Ninth Prince’s heart will not be at ease. If word of it gets out, it will make others laugh.”
Bai Junzhuo scanned her with his chest crossed. The hostility he had exuded from the inside was indeed not up to standard, but he calmed down and thought about it now. Even if he hated this “Xiao San’er” again, due to the Empress Dowager and a series of pressures, she should still act as if she was friendly on the surface.
She’s too irrational.
After thinking about it, Bai Junzhuo reached out to take her hairpin and forced a smile, “Thank you.”
The corner of Fu Yunyue’s mouth curved slightly. She walked in with Bai Junzhuo’s hand and warmly asked, “How old are you this year?”
“Seventeen.”
“You’re only seventeen years old, and you’re still working in the Imperial Hospital. You’re amazing!” Fu Yunyue praised her and said, “I’m nineteen this year, so you’re my sister, and I’m my sister.”
Bai Junzhuo didn’t have any expression on his face. He looked at Fu Yunyue carefully. Could it be that this person was as sincere and generous as she looked?
Fu Yunyue didn’t care if Bai Junzhuo ignored her. She said a lot on her own. Finally, she calmed down and listened carefully to the commotion outside. “It seems that the guests have all left. It seems that the Ninth Prince will also come to you later. I’ll go back to my room first.”
Bai Junzhuo couldn’t wait for her to leave quickly, so he quickly stood up and sent her out.
After she left, Bai Junzhuo walked to the dressing table and sat down. He took the jade hairpin and looked around. From the information she heard about Fu Yunyue from others, it seemed that Fu Yunyue was definitely not as innocent as she appeared on the surface. She was wondering if she had stuffed some poison into her hairpin.
However, this hairpin was like a white marble jade, with an exquisite white lotus carved on the top. There was really nothing suspicious about it.
Just as he was thinking, Yin Xun pushed open the door and came in. Seeing that she was distracted with her hairpin, he went over and asked, “What are you thinking?”
Bai Junzhuo handed the hairpin to him and said, “It’s from Fu Yunyue.”
As soon as Yin Xun heard that it was Fu Yunyue’s, he took the hairpin and slapped it heavily on the stage. “You dare to take her things too? Aren’t you afraid that she would secretly harm you?”
“That’s what I thought, but she was really enthusiastic. I didn’t want to go too far, so I accepted this. Furthermore, after careful examination, this hairpin is indeed an ordinary hairpin.”
“Are you saying that she wants to show you goodwill?” Yin Xun asked doubtfully.
Bai Junzhuo nodded his head, “At least from the situation just now, it seems like this is the case. Furthermore, she also acted as if she was generous. Giving you to me generously makes me feel that I’m not sensible anymore.”
Yin Xun gently hugged her and said, “What do you mean by giving me to you? I am yours.”
The corners of Bai Junzhuo’s mouth curled into a sweet smile. He nodded and said, “That’s right, it belongs to me alone.”
Yin Xun encircled her even tighter and said, “If it’s really as you said, if that woman is honest and doesn’t cause any trouble, it doesn’t matter if Ninth King’s Mansion raises an extra idle person.”
“Yes, I hope so too.”
She snuggled into his embrace and listened to his heart beating much faster than usual. With the faint smell of incense on his body, she suddenly remembered something else. She suddenly raised her head and said, “Has the cold poison on your body never broken out again since you left Luoyang?”
Yin Xun calculated carefully and shook his head, “It seems that before I leave Luoyang, the poison on my body no longer attacked.”
“Then it seems that it is indeed the incense you used before, and you said that your food and clothing consumption is all handled by Lu Kang …”
“But Lu Kang definitely can’t harm me.” Yin Xun interrupted her. Now that Shen Qing had betrayed him, Lu Kang and Mo Ying, he absolutely couldn’t lose any more.
“I know. If Lu Kang was the one who harmed you, he naturally wouldn’t have exchanged the incense you used before I said it.” After a moment of silence, Bai Jun said, “Anyway, the person who poisoned you all these years is definitely the person beside you. No matter who he is, I will definitely find him.”
Yin Xun smiled faintly, “Alright, I’ll wait for you to find that person.”
“You should also be on guard against everyone except me.”
“Alright, I’ll listen to you.”
“Yes.” Bai Junzhuo nodded in satisfaction. His entire body was buried in his aura, and his heart became more and more apathetic.
“Zisu.” She shouted his name.
“Huh?”
“Zisu ~”
“What’s the matter?”
“We” Bai Jun’s burning cheeks turned red as he whispered, “Let’s go to the bed and talk!”
