Evil Doctor Princess - Chapter 212
Chapter 212 Last Supper
“It was more than 20 years ago that Bai Gonglu left Xuchang for Luoyang. When he left there, the Empress Dowager would definitely send someone to follow him immediately. But you look to be only sixteen or seventeen years old. Don’t tell me …” Bai Junzhuo nervously asked, “Don’t tell me you have the Immortal Technique. In fact, you are already thirty years old, but it still looks like you are only sixteen or seventeen years old.”
The corner of Xingzi’s mouth twitched slightly. After a long time, he sighed and said, “Miss, didn’t you say that you accepted all the memories of that young lady? Did you forget that I was only six years old when I was brought into the manor? I grew up with you.”
Bai Junzhuo recalled that there seemed to be such a passage in the original owner’s memory.
Without waiting for Bai Junzhuo to ask, Xingzi continued, “When Miraculous Doctor Bai left Xuchang, the empress dowager sent another shadow guard to monitor him. Later, the shadow guard was called back by the empress dowager to complete other tasks, so she switched me over.”
“You’re only six years old, and you’ve already been trained as a special agent?” Bai Junzhuo looked at her in distress. A girl without a childhood was really pitiful.
Xingzi didn’t know what the spy meant and didn’t ask any further. He continued, “My mother was originally a maidservant by the Empress Dowager’s side. She and her shadow cleaner got off me, and then I naturally became a shadow guard.”
Bai Junzhuo secretly sighed in surprise. For some reason, he suddenly remembered Hitler. The Empress Dowager’s method of nurturing her trusted aides was similar to his.
“Then is the reason why Bai Gonglu left the palace because of the child of Empress Dowager and Concubine Liu? Also, is it because the Empress Dowager didn’t kill Bai Gonglu because she wanted to get the scroll from the Bai Clan?” Bai Junzhuo asked.
“I don’t know what happened back then, but the empress dowager sent me to sneak into the white scroll is indeed the purpose, the empress dowager originally wanted me to steal the scroll, but later I don’t know why the empress dowager can’t wait, let me kill the white male record. After killing Miraculous Doctor Bai, I couldn’t find the scroll all over the Bai Manor. I thought that Miss is Miraculous Doctor Bai’s favorite daughter. She should know the whereabouts of the scroll, which is why this series of events happened afterwards. ” At this point, Xingzi suddenly knelt down again and said to Bai Junzhuo, “Miss, I have done a bad thing. You once handed me the scroll of the Bai Manor and told me to take it down and keep it. I…”
Bai Junzhuo was shocked, “Have you already handed the scroll to the Empress Dowager?”
“No,” Xingzi shook his head. “I wrote down the words on the scroll and gave this to the Empress Dowager. The original scroll is still in the mansion.”
Bai Junzhuo thought for a while, then raised his hand and said, “The Empress Dowager probably can’t understand the words on it. You should get up first.”
Xingzi stood up and Bai Junzhuo asked her, “Then hand over the scroll to her. Has she let your family go?”
Xingzi bit her lower lip and shook her head. “She told me to keep an eye on you.”
“In other words, what the Empress Dowager said is simply unbelievable.” Bai Junzhuo concluded and asked, “Do you know why she is so obsessed with the Bai Clan Scroll? Grandma said that the things on the Scroll are not a secret recipe for curing all diseases. Could it still be an Immortal Technique?”
Normally, women with monstrous power would like to pursue immortality and eternal beauty. The Empress Dowager must be the same.
Xingzi shook his head and said, “This servant doesn’t know either.”
Bai Junzhuo estimated that this was the case, so he didn’t take it seriously anymore. In any case, there was no way there was such a thing as immortality in this world.
She said to Xingzi, “You and I will pretend that what happened today did not happen. You continue to be the empress dowager’s spy. Don’t let her see the flaws. Let’s dismantle the Fu family’s influence step by step and deal with the empress dowager in the end.”
Xingzi blinked his eyes and asked, “But dismantling the power of the Fu Clan is something His Majesty and the ministers have to do. Moreover, there is an old saying that the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics …”
Bai Junzhuo couldn’t help but laugh, “Firstly, I’m not His Majesty’s harem. I’m a minister. Secondly, the Empress Dowager is about to become an empress. How can the harem not interfere in politics?”
When Xingzi thought about it, he felt that it made sense. Then he asked, “Then how should Miss deal with the Fu Clan?”
Bai Junzhuo chuckled and said, “Wait.”
Although Xingzi did not understand, he did not ask further. Since Bai Junzhuo said that he was waiting, then just wait.
It was the thirtieth day of the New Year. During this period of time, Bai Junzhuo had fiercely supplemented all of Yin Xun’s business books and taught the child in his belly a proper prenatal education. This child must have been a business genius since birth.
Yin Xun also taught Bai Junzhuo everything he could teach in a short period of time. This way, even if he forgot all about it one day, she alone would be able to lift the bridge.
On the thirtieth day of the New Year, as usual, all royal clans would have to spend their days in the palace. Bai Junzhuo was pulled up early in the morning, put on a set of slightly joyful clothes, and entered the palace with Yin Xun.
Outside, it was snowing heavily like goose feathers. Although it was cold, it indicated that there would be a good harvest in the coming year. The golden palace was covered with a layer of snow, making it look much softer, not as aggressive as it used to be.
During the banquet, Yin Xun and Bai Junzhuo stood behind the various princes and princesses. They knelt down and bowed to the Empress Dowager and the Emperor. After the eunuch finished congratulating them, everyone stood up and sat down on their seats.
Bai Junzhuo looked at the crowd and finally landed on Fu Mingyue. Fu Mingyue’s face was a little tired and she smiled reluctantly. She estimated that she would be giving birth in half a month, and after that, it was time for the Emperor to choose a beautiful woman. She must be the abbot in charge of this.
Choosing a concubine for your beloved man must be very uncomfortable, right? Fortunately, she didn’t.
Thinking of this, Bai Junzhuo placed his hand under the table and gently held Yin Xun’s hand.
Yin Xun turned around and asked softly, “What’s wrong?”
Bai Junzhuo lowered his head and whispered to him, “After the banquet is over, let’s go to the West City and play for the night, shall we?”
These days, the streets and alleys of Chang’an were brightly lit, and the night market was usually bustling all night.
Yin Xun held her hand and nodded lightly, “Alright.”
The banquet was the same, boring and reserved. After waiting for the Empress Dowager to leave, everyone stood up and left.
Bai Junzhuo and Yin Xun also wanted to leave first, but Fu Mingyue followed. She subconsciously looked at Yin Xun and pulled Bai Junzhuo aside, “Didn’t I warn you last time that there might be spies in your mansion? Did you find out?”
Bai Junzhuo shook his head and said, “I have tested everyone who is close to me except His Highness. They are absolutely loyal to me and have absolutely no intention of betraying me.”
Fu Mingyue was a little suspicious, but she didn’t say anything else. She only said, “Anyway, be careful yourself.”
Bai Junzhuo nodded and smiled, “I know. The prince and I still have to go out to play later. I’ll come to the palace and sit down with you in detail later. I’ll go first.”
Bai Junzhuo couldn’t wait to return to Yin Xun’s side. Fu Mingyue opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something.
According to what Zhu Yankang said, Yin Xun should have had problems a long time ago. Why did it seem like he was still the same as usual?
Fu Mingyue looked at Yin Xun’s figure and before she could ask, Bai Junzhuo and Yin Xun had already left this place.
After leaving the palace, the two of them headed to the western city.
The night market in Chang’an was bustling with songs and dances, and the past few days were even more lively than during the day. Bai Junzhuo pulled Yin Xun through the crowd. The snow on the road had already been trampled into water by the passing pedestrians. “Do you still remember the lantern festival in Luoyang? You gave me a glass lamp worth 100,000 taels?” She asked emotionally.
Yin Xun’s eyes were a little confused, but he didn’t show it. He raised his hand and gently pinched Bai Junzhuo’s face. “How could I remember such a trivial matter?”
Bai Junzhuo was unhappy. He frowned and said, “You don’t even remember this? How dare I treat that lamp as a token of our love!”
Yin Xun smiled powerlessly. He wanted to remember, but he had forgotten. What could he do?
Recently, he had forgotten more and more things. He always felt that there were many places in his mind that had become blank, but he could not control himself from forgetting these things.
Fortunately, he still remembered her.
Yin Xun suddenly stopped and stared at Bai Junzhuo.
Bai Junzhuo was shocked by his sudden action. He stopped and asked, “What’s wrong?”
Yin Xun didn’t say anything. Bai Jun scratched his head and said, “Actually, I’m joking with you. I’m not angry. It’s just a glass lamp. Forget it.”
Yin Xun lowered his head and kissed her forehead. Bai Junzhuo felt strange in his heart. He raised his head and asked, “Zisu, what happened to you all of a sudden?”
Yin Xun did not answer. He smiled and said, “I was in the palace just now, and I saw that you didn’t eat anything. Why don’t we go and have another meal now?”
“Alright, alright!” Bai Junzhuo happily stopped Yin Xun’s shoulder and shouted, “I want to eat dumplings. I should eat dumplings for the New Year!”
“Logically speaking, we should eat dumplings on the first day of the New Year. Today, we should eat big fish and big meat.” Yin Xun nodded her nose.
“Then how can you eat greasy food at night?” Bai Junzhuo dragged him to a dumpling shop, sat down with him, and ordered two bowls of dumplings.
Yin Xun looked at her and said, “Alright, I’ll eat dumplings tonight. Tomorrow, you must personally make a meal of dumplings for me to eat.”
Bai Junzhuo chuckled and nodded, “Alright, if you don’t dislike the taste of my cooking, I’ll wrap it up.”
As they spoke, the dumplings were already served, and the two of them stammered.
Bai Junzhuo secretly looked at him through the hot air. The cold poison on his body was almost neutralized, and he was even more handsome and magnanimous than before.
Such a sweet and simple moment is really good. I really want to be like this forever.
After finishing his meal, he went crazy for another night before returning to Ninth King’s Mansion when Dongfang was gradually turning white.
Bai Junzhuo was still in the mood and said to Yin Xun, “Zisu, go to sleep first. I’ll make dumplings for you to eat!”
Yin Xun was really tired. Seeing that she was still so excited, he nodded and went back to his room to sleep.
Bai Junzhuo happily went to the kitchen, humming while chopping meat, rolling out dough, and making dumplings. After making the dumplings, he found that although the dumplings he made looked ugly individually, the whole dumplings looked pretty good.
She boiled the water, poured all the dumplings down, and then went back to her room to call Yin Xun to eat the dumplings.
Just as he opened the door, he saw Yin Xun standing beside the bed. Bai Junzhuo was stunned for a moment. Then, he went forward to button his collar and asked with a smile, “Did you get up because you smelled dumplings?”
Yin Xun scanned Bai Junzhuo with an inquiring gaze. He patted her hand on his collar and asked coldly, “Who are you?”
