Evil Doctor Princess - Chapter 179

Chapter 179 Emotional Wounding Blade
“The Ai Clan has one more condition,” said the Empress Dowager. “Let Hong Yin leave the palace and marry as a princess, not as a general.”

Yin Mu was stunned. So the Empress Dowager still wanted to hold Hong Yin’s military power in her hands.

What a watertight old fox.

Yin Mu smiled and immediately said, “Your son thanked Mother on behalf of Lu Kang. I will go back and prepare a decree.”

“Wait,” said the Empress Dowager, “tell him to kneel one more night, or else it will look like the Ai Clan has given in.”

Although Yin Mu felt a little distressed, he still agreed. He went back to write the imperial edict, and on the second day of the court, he gave the edict to get married. I don’t know if the activities of the people in Chang’an City last night shocked the officials or what, but not a single person in the hall spoke out against it.

When Lu Kang, who was standing in front of the imperial study, heard that the emperor had given the decree to marry him, his long-collapsed body could no longer hold on and he fainted decisively.

Yin Mu ordered people to send people to Ninth King’s Mansion. Bai Junzhuo sighed while healing his injuries. No matter how sturdy a man was, he could not bear to kneel on his knees for three days without eating or drinking.

After working for half a day, Lu Kang slowly woke up. Seeing that Bai Junzhuo was treating him personally, he immediately struggled to get up and said, “Ninth Princess …”

“You’re finally awake!” Bai Junzhuo shouted excitedly. When the people outside heard Bai Junzhuo’s words, they all moved closer to the door and looked inside.

Lu Kang was shocked to see a large chunk of human head pressing down on him outside the door. He asked Bai Junzhuo, “Why are all the people from the royal palace gathered here? Could it be that I’m going to die?”

Bai Junzhuo patted his shoulder and said, “Lu Kang, I originally thought that you were just a smiling fox, but now I know that you are so loyal. We know everything that happened between you and General Hong Yin on their way to the Ancient Fish Kingdom. How touching!”

Lu Kang was so shocked that his chin was about to fall off. In the blink of an eye, the maids who were secretly peeking inside had a look of infatuation on their faces.

Bai Junzhuo was afraid that the people outside would frighten Lu Kang, so he hurriedly instructed, “Xingzi, go and close the door.”

Xing Zi obeyed and drove away the crowd outside, closing the door.

Bai Junzhuo said to Lu Kang earnestly, “Lu Kang, Ninth King’s Mansion is your mother’s house. If you get bullied in the future, you can come back at any time. The Ninth Prince will make the decision for you. If you can’t beat General Hong Yin in a fight, I can … I can also treat your injuries!”

Lu Kang was speechless. Although Hong Yin was “marrying down” to him, at least she was the one who married him. Why did she say it like she was the one who married him?

“Also, you are now a celebrity in Chang’an City. Everyone knows your deeds. There are many women in the city waiting to be your concubine. You should be careful when you go out.” Bai Junzhuo warned again and finally said, “You really don’t know how serious it is. How can you kneel obediently for three days? If it weren’t for my good medical skills, you would really be crippled, you know? But now you’re not much better. Your legs are frozen and you have arthritis. In the future, you’ll die of pain in rainy days.”

Lu Kang chuckled and said, “It’s still worth it for me to be with Hong Yin with just one pair of legs.”

Bai Junzhuo was speechless. Since he felt that it was worth it, what else was there to say?

“Then you should stay in the palace and recover well. Wait until the eighth day of next month to marry General Hong Yin.”

“Yes.” Lu Kang obediently replied.

However, even though he promised, how could he really stay in the palace obediently? So in the evening, he felt that he was almost fine, so he sneaked out of the mansion.

He did not know what had happened to him in the city these past few days, nor did he understand the astonished gazes of others. However, there was another legend in Chang’an City from now on, apart from his love story with Hong Yin, that the Ninth Princess’ medical skills were unparalleled in the world. She actually cured Lord Lu, who had broken his hands and legs and was blind in half a day, and even made Lord Lu run around as if there was no one else.

At night, Yin Xun sent someone to send Fu Yunyue into the palace.

By the time she arrived, the women in the various palaces were already waiting for her. Everyone was concentrating on revolving around the future queen, their faces full of flattery and fawning.

Fu Yunyue was at a loss. Although she told Yin Xun that the two sisters were close, she still felt that Fu Mingyue did not like her. Moreover, when Fu Mingyue was kicked out, she was still young and did not know what had happened.

She hesitated and didn’t know if she should go up as well. At this time, Fu Mingyue also saw her. She came to hold her hand and kindly said, “Sister, you’re here.”

Seeing her speak like this, Fu Yunyue looked happy from the bottom of her heart. Only then did she let out a sigh of relief. She held Fu Mingyue’s hand and said, “En, it’s been a long time since I’ve seen my sister. Her sister has become even more gorgeous.”

Fu Mingyue chuckled and said, “Little sister is really fond of joking. I look like this, and I’m more or less plump. How can I say that I’m gorgeous?”

“Big sister is just good-looking! No matter what, she’s good-looking!” Fu Yunyue praised loudly. The people beside her all cast their gazes at her, envious of the deep affection between the two sisters.

Fu Mingyue nodded her nose and smiled, “Just your mouth is sweet.” He turned around and said to the others, “Everyone, come over and take a look at this Nightlight Sunflower.”

Everyone gathered around and looked at a small pot of pale green flowers. After a while, someone said, “Most of the flowers are red, yellow, and white. This is the first time I’ve seen a flower like green jade. It’s amazing.”

“Miraculously, it’s not just that,” Fu Mingyue said. “Turn out the lights.”

The palace maid accepted the order and soon extinguished all the lights in the Rain Will Palace. The surroundings darkened. Only the basin of Nightlight Sunflower gave off a faint green light. It was extremely beautiful.

Everyone exclaimed. Fu Mingyue explained, “This is the divine flower of the Western Regions. The messenger killed several horses before sending it over. However, this flower is not cold-resistant. Although there are charcoal pots everywhere in the palace, it will gradually freeze to death.”

Someone said, “Your Majesty really dotes on Your Majesty. Your Majesty is so lucky.”

This statement immediately attracted everyone to follow behind, saying that they were envious of Fu Mingyue.

However, a faint sigh sounded, “I should have been the one who married His Majesty.”

Once these words were spoken, the entire arena fell silent. Everyone recognized that this was Fu Yunyue’s voice. They also knew that the one who wanted to marry His Majesty was originally Fu Yunyue. However, she was unwilling to let the current Imperial Concubine Shu take her place and marry into the palace.

Fu Yunyue did not recognize this voice as her own. She was still thinking about who was so bold as to dare to say such disrespectful words in front of Fu Mingyue.

Then he heard another angry shout, “The throne of the Empress should have been mine. Give it back to me!”

Fu Yunyue was shocked. Was this person courting death by speaking like this? Just as she thought of this, she felt that in the darkness, there were two hands pushing her, causing her to directly hit Fu Mingyue.

Fu Mingyue shouted and fell to the ground. The palace maid hurriedly lit the lamp. Everyone saw Fu Yunyue lying on Consort Shu’s stomach and hurriedly rushed over to control Fu Yunyue.

Fu Mingyue covered her abdomen with one hand and weakly shouted, “Quick … call the imperial physician!”

It only took a moment for the entire harem to be alarmed. Fu Mingyue lay on the bed with tears in her eyes, her hands tightly gripped by Yin Mu.

“It’s fine. The imperial physician said that he didn’t hurt the child.” Yin Mu comforted her gently.

Before the women could leave, they were all gathered on the first floor. Seeing that Imperial Concubine Shu’s mood had stabilized, they heaved a sigh of relief.

Fu Yunyue also heaved a sigh of relief. She picked up the ginseng soup on the table and went forward, “Fortunately, sister didn’t hurt Dragon Child this time. Otherwise, sister would have been so distressed. Come, sister, drink some ginseng soup.”

Fu Mingyue opened the ginseng soup with one hand and fiercely said, “Ginseng soup? I’m afraid this is also the life-stimulating soup you prepared for me!”

Fu Yunyue was frightened. She was stunned for a while before she knelt down and said, “Sister, what did you say? Sister doesn’t understand a bit. Sister, what’s wrong with you?”

“I don’t understand? Who said that the person who married His Majesty should be her? Who pushed me to the ground? Fu Yunyue, you’re so ruthless! Your mother killed my mother more than ten years ago, but are you still trying to kill me now?!”

“Sister, I haven’t pushed you, and I haven’t said anything like that! Sister …” Fu Yunyue panicked and shook Fu Yunyue’s blanket for a while before turning to Yin Mu and saying, “Your Majesty, I haven’t said anything like this, and I haven’t pushed my sister. Someone secretly pushed me, and I fell on my sister …”

Yin Mu did not say a word, his expression becoming uglier and uglier. He turned around and asked the others behind him, “Did you guys hear someone say something bad back then?”

Everyone looked at each other. An imperial edict stepped forward and said, “Your Majesty, I heard the Ninth Princess say that she was supposed to marry Your Majesty. She should be the empress. At that time, it was dark and blind. I don’t know what happened, but after lighting the lamp, I saw the Ninth Princess throw the Ninth Princess to the ground.”

“Nonsense!” Fu Yunyue shouted, “That’s clearly not my voice! I haven’t pushed my sister either!”

“This official woman also heard the Ninth Princess’ voice.” Another person said, “Besides the Ninth Princess, none of us can say such words as’ She was supposed to marry His Majesty ‘.”

“Your Majesty,” Fu Mingyue shed tears and leaned against Yin Mu’s embrace. “No matter how hard I tried, I can’t forget the suffering I suffered in the Fu Clan more than ten years ago. Recently, I have been dreaming of my mother’s tragic death. I wonder if I will one day die tragically at their hands.”

“No, you’re my concubine now. I won’t let anyone hurt you.” Yin Mu patted Fu Mingyue’s back and comforted her. His gaze swept across Fu Yunyue coldly, “I will make the decision for you.”

Fu Yunyue was so scared that she didn’t dare to breathe. This wasn’t Ninth King’s Mansion, so she could send someone out to inform her father. Moreover, even if her father knew, he couldn’t bring his men to attack the palace.

Her body trembled for a long time before she said with a trembling voice, “Your Majesty, it really isn’t me. Someone is trying to harm me …”

Once these words were spoken, Fu Yunyue’s entire body trembled and she finally reacted.

How could Yin Xun suddenly treat her so well? How could she take the place of Bai Junzhuo to participate in the Imperial Concubine Gong There was only one explanation. All of this was his conspiracy! It was him, the man he loved the most in his life, trying to kill him!

“Everyone said it was you, yet you should still argue?!” Yin Mu said with a calm face, “Someone, go invite the Empress Dowager over.”
