Evil Doctor Princess - Chapter 237
Chapter 237 Yin Mu’s Killing Intent
Yin Mu’s gentle voice sounded in his ears. He said, “Bai Junzhuo, you have no choice but to kill him.”
Fu Mingyue’s face was pale as she looked at Yin Mu in disbelief. She even suspected that the man in front of her was not the King she knew and loved.
She immediately knelt down and lowered her head without saying a word.
Yin Mu was puzzled. He looked down at her condescendingly and asked, “What’s wrong with the Empress? Get up and talk. The ground is cold.”
Fu Mingyue did not get up. When she raised her head again, her long eyelashes were already covered with water droplets. She asked Yin Mu, “Why does His Majesty insist on killing Bai Junzhuo? She has never done anything wrong and will not pose any threat to His Majesty’s country. She is also His Majesty’s sister-in-law …”
Before she could finish speaking, Yin Mu gently covered her mouth and asked her, “Do you know why Mother was easily defeated by me?”
He only asked, but he didn’t mean for her to answer.
He continued, “Because Mother did something wrong and there was Bai Junzhuo, who could not tolerate sand in her eyes, her mistakes were found out.” When Yin Mu said this, he smiled and continued, “I have done many wrong things.”
Fu Mingyue pulled his hand away and frowned, “Your Majesty, this concubine will go back and remind Bai Junzhuo not to interfere in His Majesty’s affairs. She is a smart person and knows what to do and what not to do. She really will not pose any threat to Your Majesty!”
“Then what if I still want to kill her?” Yin Mu looked down at her and stroked her face, “Do you choose me or her?”
In a moment, Fu Mingyue seemed to have lost all her strength. She sat on the ground dejectedly, like an azalea in the wind and rain.
She didn’t even need to ask anymore to know that Yin Mu had already made up his mind to let her die, and Bai Junzhuo wouldn’t be able to live.
Fu Mingyue remained silent for a long time. She knelt down again and wiped away the tears on her face. Her voice also returned to normal. She said to Yin Mu, “I only hope that the child in her belly can be born safely.”
Yin Mu helped Fu Mingyue up and pulled her into his embrace. He kissed the tears on her cheek and said, “I promise you.”
He hugged Fu Mingyue’s slender waist and without hesitation kissed the warm lips in front of him. Just as he was about to take a step forward, Fu Mingyue quietly pushed him away and said, “Your Majesty, this concubine is not feeling well today.”
Yin Mu was stunned for a moment, and then the corners of his lips raised slightly. He let go of her and said, “Since that’s the case, the Empress should rest early.”
He stood up, and Fu Mingyue slightly bent her knees and said, “This concubine respectfully bade farewell to His Majesty.”
“When did the Empress become so courteous?” Yin Mu smiled and helped her up. He said to her, “You are my empress. Take care of this harem for me. Leave the rest to me.”
Fu Mingyue whispered, “This concubine understands.”
Yin Mu smiled and nodded. Then, he turned around and left Jing Ning Palace.
Outside, Zhao Chang hurriedly stepped forward and asked, “Isn’t His Majesty staying at Jingning Palace tonight?”
Yin Mu shook his head and walked forward alone. He said to Zhao Chang, “You don’t have to follow me. I want to walk alone.”
“Yes.” Chief Zhao answered, then stood at the side and watched Yin Mu walk away.
Yin Mu circled around and walked towards Jing Yang Palace, which was already like a cold palace. Just as they arrived at the entrance of the hall, they saw a man dressed in a bodyguard walking out with his head lowered.
Yin Mu stopped and watched the guard walk in front of him. The guard knelt on one knee and said, “This servant kowtowed to His Majesty.”
Yin Mu sized up the guard and suddenly smiled faintly. He said to the guard, “You actually managed to sneak in. Looks like this palace of mine needs a big change of blood.”
The guard raised his head in surprise. He looked at him and immediately lowered his head. He said to Yin Mu, “This servant doesn’t understand His Majesty’s meaning.”
“You don’t have to pretend to me anymore. I always knew you weren’t dead.” Yin Mu looked down at the man in front of him and said, “In the fire twenty years ago, there were two corpses missing from your mansion. One was you and the other was your son. Do you know why the Empress Dowager thought your entire family was dead?”
That person raised his head and looked at Yin Mu with a cold gaze.
“Because I have sent people to kill an innocent man and an infant the size of your son, burn them to death and send their corpses to your mansion.” Yin Mu said calmly with a smile on his face.
Hearing Yin Mu’s words, the guard stood up and uncovered the skin on his face. The mask said, “I knew that I was able to escape the Empress Dowager’s pursuit. Someone was secretly helping me, but I didn’t expect it to be you. Back then, you were only four or five years old, right?”
“That’s right. At that time, I didn’t think much about the imperial government. I just felt that the Empress Mother was too ruthless. I only wanted to save you.” After Yin Mu finished speaking, he asked, “What are you doing here now? Are you ready to assassinate me and conspire against me?”
The man shook his head, “I just came in to see the Empress Dowager’s miserable appearance.”
Yin Mu stared at the burn on his face and asked calmly, “What’s the result? Are you satisfied?”
“I thought you knew that your biological mother was Concubine Liu, and that she died at the hands of the Empress Dowager. You would definitely torture the Empress Dowager and avenge your mother. But I didn’t expect that you would only put her under house arrest and keep her out of court. Apart from that, everything is normal.” That person stared at Yin Mu and said, “You are indeed a good emperor. Filial piety comes first, and I am almost touched by you.”
Yin Mu laughed loudly and said, “A woman like the Empress Dowager, taking away her rights is the most severe torture to her. Didn’t you see her just now? She is haggard and haggard.”
The man nodded, “I am indeed inferior to you in terms of ruthlessness.”
Yin Mu only smiled and crossed his chest, “Tell me, when are you going to kill me?”
“You don’t seem to be scared at all,” the man approached him. A shattered face forced itself in front of him and said to Yin Mu, “I can kill you now.”
“Are you sure?” Yin Mu asked calmly as he stared at the man.
The man exchanged glances with him for a while, then took two steps back. He shook his head and said, “I haven’t finished setting it up yet. I can’t kill you for the time being.”
“In your plan, do you plan to rebel first and then deal with this unstable government?” Yin Mu asked.
The man looked straight at him and did not answer.
‘”How about this?” Yin Mu approached him, seemingly sincerely saying, “King Chencang helped me seize power. I can’t get rid of them directly. Help me kill them. After that, you can come and seize the throne with me.”
The man raised his eyebrows and smiled. His face that was riddled with holes looked even more ferocious. “What you think? I’m acting in secret. I’ll help you get rid of King Chen Cang. After clearing all obstacles, you’ll join hands with Yin Che and kill me off guard?”
Yin Mu said indifferently, “Since you’re so afraid of Yin Che, then kill him as well.”
“Kill Yin Che and his military power will fall into your hands?” The man sneered, “Yin Mu, this Yin family’s nine sons really know how to calculate.”
Yin Mu didn’t mind being said like this and asked him, “What do you think of my proposal? Should we join hands? You’ve secretly operated in the Imperial Court for many years. Isn’t killing Chen Cang Wang a piece of cake within your grasp?”
The man nodded, “Indeed. However, I do not understand. How did you know that I had been in the court for many years? Did Bai Junzhuo tell you?”
“Of course she didn’t tell me about this. It’s just that in the process of getting rid of the Fu Clan, it shouldn’t have been so easy, even with the help of King King Chencang, who is good at Jinnan. Afterwards, I thought about it carefully. Who has the ability to secretly control the civil and military officials?” Yin Mu smiled and said, “I finally thought of you.”
The man nodded and said, “I will help you. It was Bai Junzhuo who convinced me.”
“I know that it has something to do with her.” “Is she in your hands now?” Yin Mu chuckled.
The man was stunned and asked, “How do you know?”
Yin Mu did not answer. He only said, “You hesitate to kill Chen Cangwang. If I ask you to kill Bai Junzhuo, you won’t also reject me, right?”
The man shook his head, “I won’t kill her.”
“Why?” Yin Mu was puzzled and asked, “Now that Ninth Brother is not here, all the businesses in Li Country are in her hands. She is the one who is truly wealthy. Killing her will be beneficial to both of us.”
The man sighed, “Someone won’t let me kill her.”
“Who?” As soon as Yin Mu asked, he had already thought of the answer. Then, he asked, “Your son? Shen Wujie, who was fostered in the Prince’s Mansion of South Shanxi?”
The man looked at Yin Mu and suddenly felt a little scared.
Looks like this young and harmless emperor had been living under his mother’s influence for twenty years. Logically speaking, he should have no clue about everything when he first took over the throne. He should be in a hurry. But why did he know everything? It was as if he had been in control of the throne ever since he took this seat at the age of five or six. The Empress Dowager, the Fu Clan, King Chencang, and herself were all like clowns in front of him.
He patted the man’s shoulder and said, “You don’t need to ask me how I knew. Of course I always knew.” “Back then, Shen Wujie fraudulently died. If I hadn’t handled it properly and given the order, how could he have been moved to the shadows so easily by you?”
The man took Yin Mu’s hand away and took two steps back to draw a distance from him.
“I know that your most precious son is this son, and that son of yours is grateful for the nurturing of the Prince and his wife of Jinnan. So, how about you make a deal with me?” Yin Mu approached him step by step and said to him, “You killed Bai Junzhuo for me, and I killed the Jinnan Wang couple for you.”
“What if I don’t agree?” The man asked.
Yin Mu looked at him with a smile and said, “Then your son will only recognize King Jinnan as his father for the rest of his life. Oh right, I suddenly remembered something. It seems that the person who went to slaughter your entire family at the Empress Dowager’s order was King Jinnan.”
The man narrowed his eyes and said coldly, “You are really scheming step by step.”
“You’re not at a disadvantage in this deal,” Yin Mu looked at him and said, “It’s just a woman, isn’t it more important than your son?”
“That’s not true.” The man shook his head and suddenly asked, “But I’m curious. No matter how much money she has, it’s still the property of the Yin Family. Other than that, like you said, she’s just a woman. So, what are you afraid of her for?”
