Evil Doctor Princess - Chapter 248
Chapter 248 Your Wife?
A scream from the courtyard next door woke the two of them up. Mo Ying immediately sat up and said, “It seems to be Huang Li.”
“Then hurry up and take a look!” Shen Qing urged.
Mo Ying nodded and ran to the courtyard next door. After entering, he saw Xing Zi holding a broom around Huang Li’s neck. He asked her coldly, “Who are you? Why are you here? Let alone kill you!”
Huang Li hugged her head and shouted, so scared that she could not say a word.
Mo Ying hurriedly pulled Xingzi away and said to her, “She saved the prince and princess before. I brought her here, not a bad person.”
When Huang Li saw Mo Ying arrive, she immediately hid behind him and grabbed his clothes, crying, “I just woke up and went out to look for you, but this woman stopped me. She wanted to kill me, wuwu …”
Xingzi threw away his broom and said to Huang Li, “I’m sorry, I didn’t know you were a good person. I saw you face to face and thought you were sneaking in with ulterior motives.” After apologizing to her, he said to Mo Ying, “I was a little too nervous after what I just experienced. I was scared of your wife. I’m sorry.”
Mo Ying hurriedly shook his head and kept a distance from Huang Li. He said to Xingzi, “She is not my wife.”
“Really?” Xingzi didn’t believe it.
“By the way, go and see if the princess has woken up. If she wants to stay in Ninth King’s Mansion, she needs the princess’ consent first.”
Xingzi nodded and looked at Huang Li again. He saw her biting her lower lip with her head lowered, looking aggrieved. Xingzi couldn’t help but secretly sigh. The pretty girl fell in love with the Young Tendon Guard. This was a good show to watch.
Mo Ying turned to Huang Li and said, “Let’s wait in the courtyard over there. The princess should be awake by now.”
The two of them waited in the courtyard next door. Ju An had just come out of Bai Junzhuo’s room when he saw a little girl hiding behind Mo Ying. He was surprised for a moment and ran over to ask him excitedly, “Your wife?”
Mo Ying hurriedly shook his head, “No, no.”
Ju An was rather disappointed and didn’t listen to his explanation. He sighed and left.
After a while, the cook decided to ask Bai Junzhuo what he had for breakfast. When she saw Mo Ying standing at the door with a little girl, the soul of the gossip immediately lit up. She went over and asked him, “Kid, did you find a wife?”
Mo Ying was about to cry.
After explaining to many people that Huang Li was not his wife, Xingzi came out and said to Huang Li, “The princess is awake. Follow me in.”
Huang Li followed Xing Zi inside. Seeing Bai Junzhuo sitting there, she was at a loss.
After hesitating for a long time, he knelt down and said, “The maiden greets the Ninth Princess.”
Bai Junzhuo smiled and said, “There’s no need to be too polite. Get up quickly.”
Huang Li stood up and swallowed, wanting to tell her that she wanted to stay in Ninth King’s Mansion. Before he could speak, he heard Bai Junzhuo say, “I admire you for following me so recklessly.”
Huang Li smiled embarrassedly.
“However, Mo Ying is stupid. He might not know what you’re thinking. You need to stay and talk to him for a while, so that you can tell him what you think.” Bai Junzhuo suggested.
Huang Li was surprised for a moment, then she blushed and nodded, “I just wanted to tell you that I want to stay.”
“Yes,” Bai Junzhuo nodded and said to Xingzi, “Xingzi, arrange for her.”
Seeing Bai Junzhuo’s meaningful smile, Xing Zi knew that Bai Junzhuo had the intention to match her with Mo Ying, so he nodded and said, “This servant will definitely satisfy Miss.”
Xing Zi took her out to make some arrangements, and then came back to Bai Junzhuo and said, “This servant asked Mo Ying to bring that girl along. In the future, they will be able to guard the night together.”
Bai Junzhuo nodded and then asked, “Was it Shen Qing who stayed with Mo Ying?”
Xingzi nodded. “Yes.”
Bai Junzhuo thought for a moment and said to Xingzi, “So, Shen Qing will be on duty alone in the future?”
Xingzi went over to burn the quilt for Bai Jun and said indifferently, “Miss, if you’re afraid that he won’t be able to see it by himself, you can let this servant go over and accompany her.”
After Xingzi finished speaking, he did not hear Bai Junzhuo’s voice. The sudden silence startled her. Xingzi immediately turned to look at Bai Junzhuo and saw him looking at her with a smile.
Xingzi took two steps back in fear and asked Bai Junzhuo, “Little Miss, what are you looking at me for?”
Bai Junzhuo said, “I’ve been thinking about what kind of family to find for you. Thinking back and forth, it’s better for you to marry someone else than yourself. Didn’t you say that plump water doesn’t flow out of outsiders’ fields? Besides, you and Shen Qing used to be members of the Shadow Guard Camp under the Empress Dowager. You must have an extraordinary friendship, right?”
Xingzi broke out in cold sweat and helplessly said, “Miss, you finally have a moment of leisure. Just read and listen to the music. Don’t worry about our affairs.”
Bai Junzhuo raised his chin and looked at her, “What? You really don’t want to get married?”
Xingzi paused for a moment, then turned around and said, “Miss, it’s not that you don’t know that this servant can’t have children.”
Bai Junzhuo comforted, “These are all trivial matters. If a person really loves you, they won’t care about such matters.”
“But if this servant truly loves someone, I will want to give him everything that is perfect.” When Xingzi said this, he sighed and said, “This servant would rather follow Miss for the rest of her life. Miss, don’t even think about marrying this servant out.”
Bai Junzhuo pretended not to hear her words and said to himself, “Wait a moment. I’ll go and test Shen Qing’s intentions later.”
“Miss!” Xingzi looked at her reproachfully, “Will you stop messing around with the mandarins?”
Bai Junzhuo estimated that she was shy, so he followed her and turned to ask, “Oh right, where did Your Highness go so early in the morning?”
“I guess he has entered the palace.”
Entering the palace? When Bai Junzhuo thought of Yin Mu’s attitude in the Imperial Palace yesterday, his expression instantly turned cold.
Apricot noticed that Bai Junzhuo was suddenly in a bad mood, so he asked her, “Miss, what’s wrong with you?”
Bai Junzhuo did not answer her. He shook his head and raised his head to ask her, “Where is the precious jade?”
“The little princess was taken down by the nurse to feed her.” Xingzi patted the pillow and said, “Your Highness really loves the little princess. He invited eight or nine nurses over in a row, afraid that the little princess would be hungry.”
Bai Junzhuo couldn’t help but laugh. Yin Xun could really imagine that he wouldn’t be hungry if he invited so many people. He was afraid of holding on.
When the nurse finished feeding her milk, the servant brought the precious jade over. Bai Junzhuo took it and looked at her daughter’s increasingly beautiful face, his heart warming.
This was a simple and stable day, if only it could continue like this.

Inside the palace, Yin Xun told Yin Mu about the recent invasion of the Ninth Prince’s Mansion and his intention to seek rebellion. Yin Mu was not very surprised when he heard this. He only said, “Therefore, before I go on the expedition, I must definitely deal with this person first.”
Yin Xun looked at Yin Mu’s expression and asked him, “Has Brother Huang already known about this person’s existence?”
Yin Mu nodded and said to Yin Xun, “This person’s identity may be somewhat special.”
“Oh? Who is he?”
Yin Mu whispered to Yin Xun. Yin Xun was surprised, “How is that possible? Didn’t he die before?”
“Back then, I was kind-hearted and thought that he was wrongly accused again, so I secretly rescued him and his son. I didn’t expect that he wouldn’t give up for so many years. He secretly arranged everything and even planned to rebel.” As Yin Mu spoke, he paused for a moment and said, “Therefore, considering his identity, even if I seize the power in his hands and defeat him in the future, I still cannot kill him.”
Yin Xun nodded and asked, “Then what does Royal Brother plan to do to him?”
Yin Mu lowered his head and pondered for a while, then said, “Before him, there is King Chencang, who has begun to stir recently. We have to deal with him first.”
Yin Xun said, “Chen Cangwang is a smart person. When the Empress Dowager was in power, she cut off all the foreign kings. King Jin Nan did not want to fight. He could not slap him. As long as the royal brother told him clearly and let him see the current situation, he would take the initiative to surrender military power.”
“You’re right,” Yin Mu smiled at him. “But I have to trouble your princess to negotiate with King Chencang.”
“Let Jun Zhuo go over?” Yin Xun asked.
Yin Mu nodded, “I don’t know when your princess will get along well with King Chencang. It was he who persuaded King Chencang to enter the palace to surround the Empress Dowager’s army while you were away.”
Yin Xun’s mind suddenly flashed with Bai Junzhuo telling him that Yin Mu wanted to kill her. Could it be that Yin Mu was tempted to kill because of Bai Junzhuo’s friendship with King Chencang? Now, letting Bai Junzhuo convince King Chencang to surrender was the last chance he would give Bai Junzhuo?
Thinking of this, Yin Xun glanced at Yin Mu again and shook his head secretly. Impossible, his royal brother probably didn’t have such schemes. His royal brother was a benevolent lord who subdued people with virtue.
“I’ll go back and talk to her and see if she can think of a way to dissuade King Chencang.”
“Yes.” Yin Mu smiled and nodded, then said to him, “When will you bring the precious jade to the palace and let her see Zhixuan and Consonance? Zhixuan has always been clamoring to see her little niece.”
Yin Xun smiled, “There’s plenty of time.”
After all, it was still early in the evening.
After the two finished their discussion, Yin Xun returned to the palace and told Bai Junzhuo what Yin Mu had told him.
Bai Junzhuo secretly cursed Yin Mu in his heart, leaving all thankless things to her. Didn’t you say you were going to kill her yesterday? Now that he had a request for her, he wouldn’t kill her anymore?
Seeing Bai Junzhuo frowning, Yin Xun said, “If you don’t know what to say, don’t go over there.”
“The Emperor has already ordered me not to do it?” Bai Junzhuo said helplessly, “Do you still think that your royal brother is a good thing now?”
Yin Xun remained silent. He had some doubts about what had happened today.
Bai Junzhuo looked at Yin Xun and thought to himself, Since Yin Mu was so heartless and ruthless, should he provoke his own husband to usurp the throne? According to Yin Xun’s condition, the emperor was so useless. It was a pity that he didn’t usurp the throne.
This was the first time Bai Junzhuo had such an idea, but she quickly dismissed it. Compared to sitting in the world, she preferred to live happily and carefree with her family.
“Then do you have any way to convince King Chencang?” Yin Xun asked.
“Yes, of course.” Bai Junzhuo smiled.
