Evil Doctor Princess - Chapter 285
Chapter 285 Run Away from a Great Crisis
Fu Mingyue waited until it was almost dawn before she fell asleep. Bai Junzhuo took advantage of her sleep to light the incense stick. She would not wake up until noon.
After arranging everything, Bai Junzhuo quietly slipped out of the bedroom hall. The Southern Barbarian King’s palace wasn’t very big. He had walked through it the last time he came, and now he could basically figure out the route.
It was impossible for her to go out of the palace gate, so she walked openly in front of the guards, went round to the back garden, and went straight to the tall palace wall.
Bai Junzhuo ran to the bottom of the wall. The walls of the Southern Barbarian Palace were no less than the Li Kingdom’s imperial palace. They were twice as tall as her. There was another tree beside the wall. Bai Jun looked at it. Only by climbing up the tree would he be able to jump onto the wall and escape.
She picked up the tree trunk and started climbing. However, this was not something she was good at. After climbing for a long time, she still couldn’t reach the wall. She couldn’t help but recall that she had spent the night with Yin Xun. As long as he hugged her, she could fly back and forth on the roof.
Wuwu, it’s hard being single.
Just as she was sighing with emotion, she suddenly heard someone behind her, “Ninth Princess, please come down.”
Bai Junzhuo was shocked by this voice. He let go of his hand and let out a miserable scream as he fell from the tree. She touched her painful butt and turned around to see that there were four guards following her.
The four of them said at the same time, “Ninth Princess, please go back!”
Bai Junzhuo frowned and coldly said to them, “Your Majesty sent you here to protect the Empress. Why are you following me?”
One of them replied, “Your Majesty sent us to monitor the Ninth Princess. The Empress will not be in danger.”
Bai Junzhuo gave them a fierce look. This Yin Mu really had reached a new height.
“Ninth Princess, please stop thinking of escaping, because we will keep an eye on Ninth Princess, and we will report every action of Ninth Princess to His Majesty. You will not have the chance to escape.” Another guard said solemnly to Bai Junzhuo.
Bai Junzhuo narrowed his eyes. This Yin Mu had really worked hard for her.
However, the four guards wanted to stop her, so Yin Mu underestimated her. She quietly inserted her hand into her small backpack, took out a can of self-defense medicine, and abruptly pulled it out, wanting to sprinkle it on the four guards.
However, the guard closest to her suddenly stretched out his hand and grabbed Bai Junzhuo’s arm. With a forceful grip, the small jar in Bai Junzhuo’s hand fell off.
She frowned in pain. The guard who took her medicine quickly knelt down and said, “If you have no choice but to be disrespectful to the Ninth Princess, please forgive me!”
Bai Junzhuo looked helplessly at the four of them. They should all be first-class experts. Naturally, he could not deal with them like he would with ordinary people. What should we do?
The four of them said in unison, “Ninth Princess, please go back and complete His Majesty’s mission!”
Bai Junzhuo snorted coldly and said to them, “The four of you are all highly skilled in martial arts. It’s absolutely not a problem to assassinate the Southern Barbarian King. Why do you insist that I assassinate him?”
“This is His Majesty’s order.” The four of them spoke in unison.
“You still have to let me do it, don’t you?” Bai Jun gritted his teeth angrily and said to them, “Alright, I will now order you to kill the Southern Barbarian King for me!”
One of them replied, “His Majesty only told us to monitor the Ninth Princess, not listen to her orders.”
Bai Junzhuo wanted to slap them one at a time, he was so angry!
They said in unison, “Ninth Princess, please go back and complete the task assigned by His Majesty!”
Bai Junzhuo was helpless and confronted them for a long time. He compromised and said, “Alright, I’ll go back. Tell me your names and I’ll address you in the future.”
The four guards said one by one, “This subordinate is called Eleven.” “This subordinate is called Twelve.” “This subordinate is called Thirteen.” “This subordinate is called 14.”
Bai Junzhuo was a little unhappy just now, but now that he heard their names, he wanted to laugh, but if he laughed, he wouldn’t be able to match his current situation.
She turned around with a straight face and went straight back to the bedroom where Fu Mingyue was.
When she arrived at the entrance of the bedroom hall, she suddenly discovered that the door was completely hidden. Bai Junzhuo couldn’t help but pause. She clearly remembered that she had locked the door when she left just now. Could it be that someone had come in while she wasn’t there? Shit, if that’s the case, would Fu Mingyue …
She suddenly pushed open the door and entered. She quickly walked to the bedside. Seeing Fu Mingyue lying on the bed, breathing evenly, she heaved a sigh of relief.
After she calmed down, she couldn’t help but laugh self-deprecatingly. She had clearly made up her mind to break off her righteousness with Fu Mingyue en, but she couldn’t help but worry about her when she encountered something. She was truly too kind.
She turned around and walked outside. When she arrived at the door, she was attracted by a potted plant by the door. She always felt that when she passed through the door, this plant was very different from the current situation.
Bai Junzhuo frowned and looked at the plant carefully. This is a very ordinary Guanyin Willow with luxuriant branches and leaves. It is very common in this palace. Its growth trend is leaning to the right … to the right? !
Bai Junzhuo looked up at the window. The window was on the left side of Guanyin Liu. Logically speaking, its growth should be on the left side. No wonder she felt that this pot of Guanyin Willow was a little different from what she saw when she first passed. Someone must have come in and touched this pot of plant!
However, who would enter the dormitory just to touch the plants?
Bai Junzhuo was puzzled, so he went out and asked the two maids at the door, “Did anyone come in when I wasn’t around?”
The two maids looked at each other and waved their hands.
Bai Junzhuo frowned and said, “Do you guys not understand what I’m saying, or have no one come in?”
The two maids still waved their hands.
Bai Junzhuo was helpless. It seemed that the two of them did not understand what she was saying. However, thinking about it carefully, just turning the plants around shouldn’t have any bad intentions. So she stopped worrying about it. At this moment, a very rough-looking woman walked over from afar. It seemed that she was the same as the steward nanny in the Li Imperial Palace.
The woman walked up to Bai Junzhuo and said to her, “In order to ensure the safety of the princess, I came here on the orders of the king to inspect her. May I ask if the princess has got up?”
Bai Junzhuo hurriedly shook his head, “The princess was tired from running around last night, but she hasn’t gotten up yet.”
The woman nodded and said, “It’s fine if I don’t get up. I’ll be gentle and won’t wake the princess.”
As the woman spoke, she walked around Bai Junzhuo and went straight in. Bai Junzhuo could not stop her, so she could only stand at the door and see how she could examine her.
The woman searched everywhere, sniffing and sniffing. When she heard the incense, she reached out and extinguished it. She asked Bai Junzhuo, “Did you order this incense?”
Bai Junzhuo was stunned for a moment. He did not know what she wanted, nor did he dare to answer rashly.
“Let me ask you something. Quickly answer me. Otherwise, I will bring you to the Southern Barbarian King and ask him to personally interrogate you.” The woman said fiercely.
Interrogation? Bai Junzhuo was speechless. She didn’t do anything and just lit an incense stick. As for making such a fuss?
She nodded and said, “I ordered it.”
“Did you know that only incense has a sleepy effect?” The woman asked again.
Bai Junzhuo pondered for a moment. It seemed that this woman understood pharmacology. She replied, “I know that this kind of incense is used to make people sleep peacefully in our Li Kingdom. Our princess just arrived here last night and missed Li Kingdom so much that she couldn’t sleep. That’s why I ordered this incense to help her sleep peacefully.”
“Really?” The woman looked at her suspiciously.
Bai Junzhuo nodded repeatedly.
The woman stopped talking to her and began to examine her again and again. She checked Fu Mingyue’s clothes and didn’t even let go of her accessories.
Bai Junzhuo looked at her quietly. The Southern Barbarian King must have suspected that Fu Mingyue had married to assassinate him. Looks like this Southern Barbarian King isn’t stupid. However, Yin Mu’s skill is still superior. He actually thought of asking her to complete the mission of assassination. Southern Barbarian King would never have thought of that.
Fu Mingyue was sleeping soundly. The woman had finished flipping over, but Fu Mingyue still hadn’t woken up.
The woman stood there for a while. Bai Junzhuo thought that since she hadn’t found anything that could threaten the Southern Barbarian King, she should have left. However, she suddenly turned around and looked at Bai Junzhuo. “I’ve already checked the Princess’ things. Where are the things you brought?”
Bai Junzhuo was stunned and quickly replied, “I thought that the Southern Barbarian Kingdom wouldn’t lack my food and clothing, so I didn’t bring anything with me.”
The woman stared at Bai Junzhuo carefully for a while and said in a deep voice, “I want to check if you have anything that can harm the princess and the Southern Barbarian King.”
Hearing this, Bai Junzhuo’s expression changed. Although she did not intend to help Yin Mu kill the Southern Barbarian King, she still carried a lot of poison, medicines, daggers and bracelets with mechanisms on her wrist with her. If she found out, the Southern Barbarian King would definitely not allow her to stay alive in the imperial palace.
Do you want to run now? This was in the Southern Barbarian King’s palace, where did he run to?
Kill this woman? Doesn’t that make the Southern Barbarian King even more suspicious?
The woman had already approached her step by step, and Bai Junzhuo’s tightly clenched palms were sweating profusely.
Suddenly, the door of the hall was pushed open. Eleven and twelve came in. They looked at the woman and said, “The princess is resting. You have disturbed her for a long time. Please leave!”
The woman turned her gaze to the two of them and said to them, “I am also doing this for the safety of the Princess and the Southern Barbarian King.”
Eleven said, “We will protect the safety of the princess. You can rest assured.”
“For the sake of the Southern Barbarian King’s safety, I must carefully examine all of you who have come from the Kingdom of Li and the things you carry with you.” The woman’s eyes were enigmatic as she said, “For the sake of the Southern Barbarian King’s safety, I must carefully examine all of you.”
As she spoke, it was as if Eleven and Twelve walked over. Eleven and Twelve said, “We came here with the Princess to get married. From now on, we will be from the Southern Barbarian Kingdom. Naturally, we will not harbor thoughts that are harmful to the Southern Barbarian King.”
“Do you think I believe you?” The woman sneered, “I still have to examine you carefully.”
Eleven and twelve calmly stood up and let her examine them.
Bai Junzhuo took advantage of the woman’s attention to place it on the two of them and hurriedly took out the poison, medicine, and dagger from his bag. With his hands behind his back, he pulled out the Guanyin Liu Liantu and put the items inside.
She put her hand into the basin and suddenly touched something soft and cold. Bai Junzhuo couldn’t help but be shocked. What was it?
