Evil Doctor Princess - Chapter 278
Chapter 278 Hug Each Other but Do Not Look at Each Other
The corner of Yin Mu’s mouth hooked, and he said, “If I really fall in love with you, what if I did all of this to get you?”
Bai Junzhuo laughed self-deprecatingly, “How is that possible? If you really love me, then let me go.”
“Haha, you little girl, I really didn’t expect you to come from all directions. I thought you would say that if I really love you, I would cripple Fu Mingyue and make you empress.” Yin Mu laughed loudly and said, “Actually, apart from loving you, I do want to get something else from you.”
Bai Junzhuo sneered in his heart. Sure enough, he wanted something. He even claimed to love her. He thought that everyone in this world loved him as brainlessly as Fu Mingyue, so easily confused by her sweet words?
“I heard from Zisu that the scroll of the Bai Clan that can summon Yin Weapons is in your hands? And you can read the words on it?” Yin Mu asked her.
Bai Junzhuo glanced at him. It turned out that he was doing it for that scroll. However, she only knew how to translate the words on the scroll, but she did not understand the summoning method of the Dark Weapons recorded on it.
She sneered, “I told you, why are you dealing with Zisu and Yin Ji at this time? If Zisu dies and the army cannot be brought back, how can you fight against the Southern Barbarians? I didn’t expect you to place your hopes on the Dark Armament. How stupid.”
Yin Mu ignored her disrespect and said to her, “The matter of Yin Weapons sounds unimaginable, but Emperor Grandpa did invite out Yin Weapons. Otherwise, with Li Kingdom’s strength, they would definitely not be able to experience two consecutive battles.”
Bai Junzhuo looked at him ridiculously and said, “Why don’t you think about it? If your Imperial Grandpa can really rely on this to invite out Yin Weapons, why don’t you properly guard this thing and pass it on to your Yin Family’s descendants to bless your rivers and mountains for generations to come? Why should you hand it over to my grandfather?”
“So, are you unwilling to help me invite out the Dark Weapons?” Yin Mu stood with his chest crossed and smiled, “Alright, I’m not in a hurry anyway. Tell me, we only have an unexpected Southern Barbarian soldier, Meng Hei He, in our hands. How do you think we can use this Meng Hei He’s unblemished move to delay the battle for another two months?”
Bai Junzhuo snorted coldly, “Even if I really have a plan, I won’t tell you. The Li Kingdom died because of you, the emperor. It has nothing to do with me.”
“Don’t refuse in such a hurry. I’ll give you three days to think of a way to delay the Southern Barbarians and give our Dark Armaments some time to prepare. Also, I’ll send heavy troops to watch over you. You definitely won’t be able to escape.” As Yin Mu spoke, he turned around to leave. He walked to the door and turned around. “Oh right, I forgot to tell you that you didn’t give the precious jade to Lu Kang at the beginning. Instead, you personally gave it to Yin Ji’s subordinate who was disguised as Lu Kang.”
Before Bai Junzhuo could react, he pulled open the curtain and walked out.
Bai Junzhuo was stunned for a moment, then he wanted to catch up with Yin Mu and ask him to understand, but the guards outside did not let her take half a step away.
Bai Junzhuo could only question his departing back, “You lied to me! How could Baoyu fall into Yin Ji’s hands?”
She was unable to withstand the successive blows, and she spoke too loudly, causing her own ears to buzz with pain.
She shook her head and constantly warned herself not to be in a state of chaos. Yin Mu must have said this to deceive her to bring out Yin Weapons for him.
She obediently went back and sat down. During this time, Xingzi and Ju An came over to see her. However, they were immediately taken away by the guards at the entrance. They were probably doomed, and they would become the ones that Yin Mu had used to threaten her.
She sat like this until dawn, and the pain and worry in her heart became numb. Fortunately, her mind had completely awakened. She clearly knew what she was going to do: first, she had to find out if Baoyu was alright, then she had to rescue Xingzi and Ju’an and escape with them to save Zisu.
When Zhao Chang personally brought the food in, Bai Junzhuo said to him, “Eunuch Zhao, I want to see His Majesty. Can you pass it on for me?”
Her voice was extremely hoarse. When Chief Zhao heard this voice, he was stunned for a moment. Then, he immediately nodded and said, “Alright, this old servant will call His Majesty over now.”
Zhao Chang went out and soon brought Yin Mu. Yin Mu looked at her haggard appearance and couldn’t help but sigh, “Why are you doing this?”
Bai Junzhuo smiled faintly. Her sleepless state made her smile even more pitiful. She calmly said to Yin Mu, “But His Majesty knows that I will not be defeated. Otherwise, he would not dare to lock me up.”
Yin Mu also laughed and nodded to her, “You are much faster than I thought.”
“After experiencing so many great calamities and disasters, I have matured quite a bit. Naturally, I will not disappear like my second son. It took me several days to walk out of my grief.” Bai Junzhuo raised her head to look at him. Last time, she was sad and unbearable. The first person she saw after walking over was him. At that time, she respected him like a brother and faced everything with him. But now, she couldn’t help but be afraid when facing this man who had been scheming for everything from the beginning.
But even if she was afraid, she still had to force herself to face him.
Bai Junzhuo said, “Your Majesty, you told me last night that the precious jade fell into Yin Ji’s hands. Is it true or false?”
Yin Mu nodded and said, “That’s true. However, according to the report of the spies I planted beside Yin Ji, Shen Wujie has already rescued the precious jade. I have also sent people to secretly follow them. Their lives are now up to me.”
Bai Junzhuo secretly clenched his fists, suppressing the anger in his heart.
Actually, this wasn’t the worst. At least, with Shen Wujie by Baoyu’s side, she could be at ease.
Seeing that she did not say anything, Yin Mu said to himself, “I have already informed King Agala of Meng Hei He’s situation in our hands. I also said that I would negotiate with them tomorrow and return it to Meng Hei He in exchange for delaying the start of the war.”
“Are you afraid of the Hongmen banquet?” Bai Junzhuo asked him.
Yin Mu shook his head and sat beside Bai Junzhuo. He looked at her and said, “I do not intend to go there personally. I want you to disguise yourself as a man and go instead of me.”
Bai Junzhuo raised his eyebrows and said that he loved her and that calling her into danger was the way he loved her?
“But don’t worry, I will send someone to protect you. I will definitely not let anything happen to you.”
Bai Junzhuo chuckled and said, “Your method is too bold. I’m not the same as you. I’m not an expert in disguise. I guess the Southern Barbarian King will recognize me at a glance.”
“No,” Yin Mu shook his head. “In the past, every court meeting was presided over by the Empress Mother. I either said that I was sick or hid behind someone else. I never showed my head. The Southern Barbarian King has never seen me before, so I definitely won’t recognize you.”
Bai Junzhuo lowered her head and thought for a moment. She knew what would happen if she refused him now, so she could not help but go. However, she did not want to help him accomplish anything. She even wanted to exert strength on the Li Kingdom that was hanging on the edge of the cliff and personally push it into an abyss that could never be recovered.
She understood and nodded, “I’ll go, but I have a request.”
Yin Mu raised his hand to signal her.
“I want the Empress to accompany me,” the corners of Bai Jun’s burning lips curved into an arc. “Only when the Empress goes over together will it show the sincerity of our Li Kingdom.”
Yin Mu thought for a moment and didn’t feel that there was anything wrong with this idea. He nodded and said, “Alright.”
The next day, Bai Jun Zhuo was afraid that Meng Hei He would speak nonsense, so he first poisoned him with medicine, then put on his masculine clothes and went with Fu Mingyue to the Southern Barbarian King’s palace near Chaisang City.
This palace was very magnificent, not inferior to Yin Mu’s palace. Moreover, the Southern Barbarian Kingdom had always worshiped gold ornaments, decorated with gold everywhere.
Bai Junzhuo shook his fan and sized it up. Then, he reached out to stop Fu Mingyue’s waist and smiled at her, “Your Majesty, can you see how this place compares to my palace?”
Fu Mingyue had always wondered why Bai Baijun Zhuo had recovered so quickly and thought that she would be deeply immersed in the matter of Yin Xun’s imminent death. Now, he didn’t know why she insisted on bringing her here and acting so affectionate with her in front of everyone. Didn’t she say that she was going to break off the righteousness with her kindness? Since she hated her for acting like this, wasn’t she feeling uncomfortable?
However, Fu Mingyue was also an expert in acting. She leaned into Bai Junzhuo’s embrace and shook her head charmingly. “As long as there is His Majesty, it would be the best place. There is nothing like it.”
Bai Junzhuo laughed heartily. He didn’t know if he thought it was funny or funny. She tapped Fu Mingyue’s nose with her fan and said, “The Empress always makes me happy when she speaks.”
“Because what I’m saying is from the bottom of my heart.” Fu Mingyue’s charming eyes were like silk as she smiled.
Bai Junzhuo replied, “Yes, I am the same with the Empress. A place with the Empress is the best place for me.”
As he spoke, a Southern Barbarian guard came up and said to Bai Junzhuo and Fu Mingyue in the Li language, “Monarch and Queen of the Li Kingdom, the Southern Barbarian King is waiting for you in the main hall. Please follow me.”
Bai Junzhuo nodded and walked into the main hall with the guard.
Bai Jun’s burning hand slid down Fu Mingyue’s waist and gently grabbed her hand. He could clearly feel Fu Mingyue’s palm trembling. Bai Junzhuo raised the corner of his lips and leaned closer to her ear and asked, “What, are you afraid of me?”
Fu Mingyue grasped her tightly with her back hand and smiled at her. “I didn’t care about anything you said the day before yesterday,” she said.
Bai Junzhuo chuckled and said, “Then just wait. I told you, I definitely won’t forgive you this time.”
As he spoke, he was already in front of the Southern Barbarian King. The Southern Barbarian King was sitting on top of him. He was also expected to be a fat man. He was very big. He was estimated to be two meters tall and one meter wide. She was accompanied by two girls and kept pouring wine for her.
Bai Junzhuo secretly sighed. He looked like this, yet he was still in the wine pond. It was obvious that he was not a good bird, so it was better not to help him exterminate Li Country.
Bai Junzhuo closed the fan and said to the Southern Barbarian King, “Southern Barbarian King, I have personally delivered your general, Meng Hei He.”
The Southern Barbarian King narrowed his eyes arrogantly and looked at Bai Junzhuo. He accidentally caught a glimpse of Fu Mingyue standing beside her. Suddenly, he suddenly opened his eyes and stared at her without blinking.
The person standing beside the Southern Barbarian King reminded him. Only then did the Southern Barbarian King regain his senses and raise his hand to signal for Bai Junzhuo and Fu Mingyue to take their seats.
Bai Junzhuo stared at the Southern Barbarian King and looked at Fu Mingyue beside him. He knew what the Southern Barbarian King wanted.
She held Fu Mingyue in her arms and whispered intimately to her, “That fatty seems to be interested in you.”
