Evil Doctor Princess - Chapter 236

Chapter 236 The Empress Has a Grudge
“Didn’t you already know? Back then, I faked my death for the real reason.”

Yin Xun replied, “I only know that you weren’t doing it for me as you said. I don’t know why.”

“I’m here to tell you that Xiao Bai is safe and no one will do anything to her. Your daughter is also safe and Mo Ying is there to protect her,” Shen Wujie said.

“Why did you lock me up? Does Brother Emperor know about this?”

Shen Wujie shook his head, “Zisu, you can’t know any more. Stay here.”

Yin Xun squeezed his fingers and said coldly, “I told you, I hate being confused.”

Shen Wujie didn’t give him the slightest chance and went out to lock the prison door.

“Zisu, I’ll see you again in the future.” After saying this, Shen Wujie walked out of the dungeon.

Yin Xun knew that he wouldn’t spit out a single word if he was forced to ask him again, so he didn’t say anything else. After he left, he reached out and tightened the lock on the cell door, twisted it, and didn’t untwist it.

The imperial palace’s locks were naturally different from the ones elsewhere.

Could it be that there really be no way to escape?

Just as he was thinking, the youth over there poked his head out of the quilt and secretly looked at him. Yin Xun noticed his gaze and turned to look at him. The youth immediately retracted his head back.

Yin Xun asked, “Are you the little prince of the Ancient Fish Kingdom?”

When the youth saw Yin Xun speak, he put down the blanket and looked at him. Seeing that he had a face that did not look like a bad person, he nodded at him.

“You may be locked up here for the rest of your life.” Yin Xun said indifferently.

When the youth heard this, he became excited, “No, sister said that she would …”

The youth seemed to have thought of something and immediately covered his mouth.

Isn’t his sister Zhu Yankang? Yin Xun thought of Zhu Yankang’s strange behavior and what she had done to him, so he asked, “What did your sister say?”

The youth shook his head and closed his mouth, determined not to say a word.

Yin Xun thought for a moment and said, “Look, I’m also locked up here, which proves that I have the same identity as you. We both want to do the same thing, so maybe I can help you.”

The youth said, “Nonsense, I clearly heard you say ‘Royal Brother’ just now. You are clearly a prince of Li Country!”

Yin Xun glanced at him indifferently and asked, “If I were any king of Li, why would I be imprisoned in the imperial palace? Actually, I am the king of another country, the royal brother I speak of, and the emperor of another country.”

The youth looked at him suspiciously and asked, “Which country are you from?”

Yin Xun thought for a moment and said casually, “I am the son of Princess Ji of the Yu Kingdom. I am a member of the Yu Kingdom.”

The youth looked at what he said naturally and didn’t seem to lie at all. Moreover, there was a princess surnamed Ji in the Yu Kingdom. She was the most beautiful princess in the Yu Kingdom. Everyone in the Ancient Fish Kingdom had heard of Princess Ji’s name.

Looking at the man in front of him, he did have a good face. He was probably Princess Ji’s son. He felt a little relieved and asked, “Are you really from the Yu Kingdom?”

Yin Xun nodded.

The youth heaved a sigh of relief. The Yu Kingdom and the Ancient Fish Kingdom had always been good friends. Since this person was from the Yu Kingdom, he was his friend.

He walked over to Yin Xun and sat down. He raised his head to look at him and asked, “Why are you also locked up here?”

Yin Xun replied, “The Li Kingdom took me hostage to threaten the Yu Kingdom to help them attack the Southern Barbarians.”

The youth nodded and said, “They captured me and my sister because they wanted to do the same. Li Country is so shameless.”

Yin Xun nodded in agreement, “That’s right, Li Country is really shameless. If only I could escape back, I don’t want Yu Country to be involved in this matter.”

“You think the same as me!” The youth said excitedly, “Don’t worry, my sister has mastered a secret art. As long as sister controls the Empress Dowager of Li Kingdom, you and I will be able to regain our freedom very quickly!”

Yin Xun finally got to the point. He also understood that Zhu Yankang was not truly submitting to the Empress Dowager, but was thinking of revenge.

However, she was really naive enough to think of borrowing the Empress Dowager’s hand. Now that the Empress Dowager has fallen, let’s see what she will do next.

Taking advantage of Yin Xun’s thoughts, the youth reached out and touched Yin Xun’s neck. Yin Xun immediately grabbed his hand and asked coldly, “What do you want to do?”

The youth looked at Yin Xun in fear and was speechless.

Yin Xun knew that he hadn’t harmed his mind, so he let go of his hand and said, “I’m used to it. I didn’t do it on purpose.”

The youth immediately forgave him and said to him, “I secretly saw that person pull out a needle from his neck just now. I want to see if there are any needle holes.”

It was because Shen Wujie had used silver needles to stab his acupoints in order to knock him unconscious. Otherwise, he would definitely not have fainted by just relying on the blow.

Yin Xun showed him his neck and asked, “Is that so?”

The youth looked for it and nodded, “There is a red dot.”

Yin Xun shook his head.

The teenager nodded, “We hostages. They won’t kill us unless they have to. So I’m not scared at all. I showed fear just to let them relax their guard against me and make it easier for my sister to act outside.”

“It’s hard for you.” Yin Xun patted the youth’s head and asked, “What’s your name?”

“My name is Yan Yang.” The youth leaned against Yin Xun and comforted him, “Don’t worry, my sister will definitely save us. When the time comes, you can go back to Yu Country and I will go back to Gu Yu Country. The two of us will join forces and attack Li Country together!”

Yin Xun lowered his head and looked at the red rope on his wrist. Zhu Yankang would definitely not leave this younger brother behind. She would take this opportunity to save Yan Yang. She didn’t know how she would react when she saw him, and whether she would continue to use the Ecstasy to control him.

Furthermore, he didn’t know if he could escape from her ecstasy just by relying on the method Bai Junzhuo had told him.

But now, it seemed that he could only rely on Zhu Yankang to escape from the dungeon.

He nodded and said to the youth, “Alright.”

Inside Jing Ning Palace, Yin Mu held a peach wood comb and combed Fu Mingyue’s hair. Fang Yi had just gone out, but she didn’t know that the Emperor was also here. She walked in directly and said, “Your Highness, Ninth King’s Mansion is still calm today, and this servant hasn’t seen the Ninth Princess today.”

After she finished speaking, she suddenly saw that the Emperor was also here. She hurriedly knelt down and said, “This servant greets His Majesty.”

Yin Mu casually waved his hand and asked her to stand up. Then, he asked Fu Mingyue, “Do you send people to Ninth King’s Mansion to investigate the situation every day?”

Fu Mingyue nodded and said, “I planted spies in the Ninth Prince’s Mansion to protect the Ninth Princess. After the Fu Family collapsed, I felt that no one would harm the Ninth Princess, so I withdrew them all. However, I was still worried about her, so I often sent people over to take a look.”

Yin Mu couldn’t help but nod her nose and say, “Fortunately, the Ninth Princess is a woman. Otherwise, I would definitely be jealous.”

Fu Mingyue smiled gently and said to him, “The Ninth Princess is grateful to me for rebirth. Without her, I would not be able to be with His Majesty.” After saying that to Yin Mu, she asked Fang Yi, “Are the people from Ninth King’s Mansion still not letting you in?”

Fang Yi nodded her head and replied, “It has been many days. This servant has sent things over. The nanny of the Prince’s Mansion has taken them directly. Then, she gives this servant some money and dismisses this servant. Your Highness, we’ll go tomorrow. Do you need this servant to barge in and take a look?”

Fu Mingyue thought for a moment and did not answer her. Instead, she asked, “Didn’t the people of Ninth King’s Mansion say that the princess is not here?”

Fang Yi nodded, “They didn’t say anything, but this servant feels that the Ninth Princess is about to give birth, so she shouldn’t run away.”

“This is abnormal.” Fu Mingyue lowered her head and muttered.

Yin Mu suddenly said to Fang Yi, “You can go down first.” Fang Yi bowed slightly and then turned around and walked out. Then Yin Mu asked Fu Mingyue, “Why is it abnormal?”

Fu Mingyue said, “This concubine understands the Ninth Princess. Since the Ninth Prince has been missing for so long, she will definitely personally go out to find him.”

Yin Mu smiled and gently combed her hair and said, “She has a big belly. It’s not safe to go out now.”

“Although that’s what I said, she’s Bai Junzhuo. She’s never been afraid of the heavens or the earth.” Fu Mingyue thought for a moment and then said, “But I don’t think anything can happen. The two servants and concubines beside her have already instructed that they will immediately notify the servants and concubines if anything happens.”

Yin Mu played with Fu Mingyue’s long hair and whispered to her, “Mingyue.”

“Huh?” Fu Mingyue turned to look at her.

“Don’t worry about Ninth King’s Mansion in the future.”

Fu Mingyue couldn’t help but chuckle, “Is Your Majesty really jealous?”

Yin Mu also smiled lightly and said to her, “A woman who is too smart can easily die early.”

Fu Mingyue’s heart congealed as her smile froze on her face. After a long time, she asked, “Does His Majesty mean concubines, or does he mean Bai Junzhuo?”

Yin Mu’s comb in Fu Mingyue’s hair was snapped by him. He looked at Fu Mingyue for a long time and kissed her lips lightly. He bent his eyes and said, “What are you saying? You are my empress and mother of consonance. I can’t leave you.”

Fu Mingyue immediately felt that his smile revealed a deep chill. On her first day in bed, she knew that the seemingly gentle Abyss Emperor was not as harmless as he looked. However, she could not help but fall in love with him. If it weren’t for this, she wouldn’t have been able to make up her mind to personally kill her biological father.

But now, her heart was a little cold. Did she feel that she had also been tricked by him? Has he … never loved himself sincerely?

She began to recall what Yin Mu had done after the Fu Clan had fallen. He had set up a curfew in Chang’an. He began to discuss things with some people that she did not know at all. She did not know what he had done.

Yin Mu was very satisfied with Fu Mingyue’s stagnant face. She gently stroked her face with her finger. Her gaze and expression were still gentle, as if they loved each other deeply.

He said to her, “Bai Junzhuo, you have to kill me.”
