Evil Doctor Princess - Chapter 288
Chapter 288 Assassination Plan Opens
Bai Junzhuo saw a tall and mighty man standing beside the wall at the back. The man was wearing a suit of armor and was holding a spear in his hand.
She hurriedly squatted down. Didn’t Little Yan say that no one would come here normally? Why was there another person standing here?
Bai Junzhuo hid for a long time. Seeing that the person didn’t seem to notice her, he took another bold glance and discovered that it was only a neatly arranged armor.
Bai Junzhuo patted his chest and stood up. This armor seemed to be Li Country’s style, and it was suitable for tall and thin men. The Southern Barbarian King definitely couldn’t wear it. The Southern Barbarian King placed Li Country’s armor in the study room. Did he use this to remind himself of annexing Li Country?
She ignored the armor and turned to look through the books on the shelf.
Most of the books are a little old, and the edges are also scrolled. The Southern Barbarian King should come and read them from time to time.
Bai Junzhuo found some books about “secret arts” and “curses”. Sure enough, the characters of Southern Barbarian Kingdom were not much different from those of Li Kingdom. She could roughly understand them.
Bai Junzhuo swiftly flipped through it. Not long after, he found a record of mercury pouring into a corpse written on the surface of a book. It said that while the corpse was still alive, he would dig holes in the top of his head, back, and feet to pour mercury into the corpse. This kind of corpse would not rot for ten thousand years. The complete corpse was placed at the entrance of the tomb to prevent the burglar from stealing the tomb. If he only cut off his head and left it in front of someone else’s house, he would kill that family.
When Bai Junzhuo remembered that the head placed at the entrance of Fu Mingyue’s bedroom was poured with mercury while he was alive, his heart jammed. No matter what purpose this person had to harm Fu Mingyue, using such a cruel method was truly unacceptable.
She closed the book and flipped out the window again.
He nodded to the few people outside and went back with them.
After returning to the bedroom, Bai Junzhuo told Fu Mingyue what she found. Fu Mingyue held her chin and thought for a while before muttering, “I’m new here. Who is it that wants to harm me?”
Bai Junzhuo looked at the pot of Guanyin Liu as if nothing had happened and said to her, “I have already investigated the matter you want to investigate. What should we do next is up to you. However, the person who harmed you is really stupid. Doesn’t he know that you don’t want to sleep with him? Now that something like this has happened, I can give you an excuse.”
Fu Mingyue glanced at her and smiled. “Although I’ve thought of the idea of using this human head to play, I still have to thank you for your reminder. I didn’t expect that Bai Junzhuo, at this time, you would still be thinking about me.”
Bai Junzhuo looked at her mockingly, “Don’t be so passionate. I’m just about to say it out loud.”
“Is that so?” Fu Mingyue smiled and said, “That would be good. Otherwise, I would still feel a little guilty for you.”
Bai Junzhuo snorted coldly. Just as he was about to speak, he saw Little Yan poking his head out of the door and immediately shrank back.
Fu Mingyue also saw her and asked Bai Junzhuo, “Who is she?”
“She’s my helper. It has nothing to do with you. Don’t worry about her.” Bai Junzhuo said to her before turning around to leave.
“Someone you found to help you escape?” Fu Mingyue smiled and shouted at the door, “Come in.”
Bai Jun looked at her coldly, “What do you want?”
Fu Mingyue ignored her and only watched as Little Yan walked in. She knelt down and said to her, “This servant, Little Yan, salute the princess.”
Fu Mingyue raised her eyebrows and asked, “Are you from Li?”
Little Yan nodded. Without waiting for Fu Mingyue to speak, he raised his head and said to her, “This servant is from Li, but she grew up in the Southern Barbarian Kingdom, so she can also speak Southern Barbarian.”
Fu Mingyue smiled and said, “Stand up. Coincidentally, I lack such a helper. Come over here and come to me.”
Little Yan hurriedly got up and ran to Fu Mingyue’s side. Fu Mingyue stared at her for a while and touched her head, saying, “Very good. Follow me in the future and work for me wholeheartedly. I will protect your food and clothing and live a safe life.”
Bai Junzhuo glared at her. She was obviously the one who found Little Yan, okay?
Xiao Yan nodded her head repeatedly. Fu Mingyue said, “I have something to leave to you right now. Help me find out who entered this dormitory when I was resting this morning.”
Little Yan replied and retreated.
After she left, Bai Junzhuo angrily said to Fu Mingyue, “This is obviously the person I’ve found!”
“What?” Fu Mingyue looked at her coldly. “Did you forget that you are my maidservant? You are my man, so your man must be mine first.”
Bai Jun clenched his fists tightly and loosened them. He smiled and asked her, “Do you trust this Little Yan so much? Aren’t you afraid that she was deliberately sent to me by the person who wanted to harm you so that she could be placed with you?”
Fu Mingyue shook her head, “I believe you. You can’t be wrong.”
“No,” Bai Junzhuo rejected her, “I saw the wrong person in my life who was very important to me. That’s why my Zisu and I ended up like this. That person is you.”
A strange emotion flashed in Fu Mingyue’s eyes. The laughter on her face instantly disappeared and she stopped talking about this matter. She said, “It’s better for you to complete His Majesty’s mission as soon as possible. This way, I can also be freed early. You can also escape from here to save the Ninth Prince.”
Bai Junzhuo glared at her. She had just taken in a teammate to help her escape when you dug her up. How could she complete the mission as soon as possible?
However, she did need to start killing the Southern Barbarian King. However, as a maidservant, it was not good for her to go directly to the Southern Barbarian King, and Fu Mingyue was unwilling to approach him. Where could she find an opportunity?
Yin Mu’s words were light and nimble, but she really had to do it. She was truly worried to death, a person who didn’t have the slightest bit of experience.
Bai Junzhuo leaned against the Guanyin Willow and thought. This was because Little Yan had also returned. Bai Junzhuo looked at her in astonishment. He didn’t expect that this girl would be able to handle things quite nicely.
She excitedly nodded at Bai Junzhuo and then went over to Fu Mingyue and said, “Reporting to the princess, this servant has already asked. The two maids at the door said that the people from the kitchen came this morning to deliver breakfast to the empress.”
Fu Mingyue did not eat this breakfast. She thought that the person in the box containing the breakfast was the head. But what was the kitchen trying to do to her?
She asked Xiao Yan, “Who is in charge of the kitchen?”
“Before the Empress came, the people in the palace were all Hegemons. He was the king’s favorite concubine.” Xiao Yan replied.
Fu Mingyue raised her eyebrows. It turned out that the one who declared war on her was Concubine He, who had made things difficult for Bai Junzhuo on her first appearance. This woman was beautiful, but she was too unruly. Moreover, the Southern Barbarian King still had a new feeling towards him. It should not be a problem for him to borrow the Southern Barbarian King’s hand to teach Concubine He a lesson.
Right now, there was only one chance for the Southern Barbarian King to discover this human head.
Fu Mingyue was thinking about where she was. Bai Junzhuo saw a large group of palace servants walking towards her. They were holding something like beads and jade clothes in their hands, so he reminded her, “Someone is coming.”
Fu Mingyue regained her senses and cast her gaze towards the door.
These palace servants did not pay any attention to Bai Junzhuo, who was standing at the door. Without saying hello to her, they walked in one after another and knelt down in front of Fu Mingyue. The one in the lead said, “Reporting to the princess, the king said that we will host a wedding banquet for you tonight. We were all sent by the king to dress you up.”
When Bai Junzhuo heard this, he thought to himself that the chance to poison them had come. Fu Mingyue also wanted to take advantage of the Southern Barbarian King’s opportunity to teach Concubine He a lesson.
She nodded to the palace servant, who then turned around and instructed the maidservant below to serve Fu Mingyue in Southern Barbarian.
Those people had dressed Fu Mingyue all afternoon. Southern Barbarian’s clothes were exposed, and he liked to decorate them with gold ornaments. They were charming and vulgar, which did not conform to Fu Mingyue’s dignified and dignified appearance. However, coupled with Fu Mingyue’s loneliness, it made her even more attractive and charming.
Xiao Yan stood by the side and watched. She secretly said to Bai Junzhuo, “The Empress is so beautiful. I see that all the concubines of the Southern Barbarian King are inferior to her. No wonder the Southern Barbarian King wants to snatch her over regardless of everything.”
Bai Junzhuo was completely unable to refute this statement. Fu Mingyue was beautiful, very, very beautiful. Such a beauty was not good for a man, but she fell in love with someone who would not treat her sincerely.
At night, another group of palace servants came to welcome Fu Mingyue to the banquet. Fu Mingyue expressionlessly walked out of the dormitory with those people. Just as she took a step forward, gorgeous fireworks suddenly exploded in front of her. They were incomparably magnificent, illuminating half the sky.
Bai Junzhuo followed closely behind her and looked at the fireworks. He whispered to her, “The Southern Barbarian King took great pains to treat you. I can’t help but be touched by his sincerity. Besides being a bit uglier than Yin Mu, there’s nothing else he isn’t as good as Yin Mu. Why don’t you just follow the Southern Barbarian King?”
Fu Mingyue didn’t seem to have heard it. Her gaze was cold as she stared straight ahead. She didn’t even look at the fireworks.
The banquet was arranged in the garden. Fu Mingyue walked to the top seat under the crowd and sat beside the Southern Barbarian King. Bai Junzhuo and Xiao Yan stood behind her. At the bottom of her head were a few women who were dressed in revealing clothes. They should be concubines of the Southern Barbarian King. On the other side, there was Hegemon. Behind Hegemon were a few men dressed in gorgeous clothes. Judging from their age, they should be princes of the Southern Barbarian King.
He Ji had always been pretending, but ever since Fu Mingyue appeared, not to mention the Southern Barbarian King, all the men present had their gazes on her, while Fu Mingyue looked coldly at her like a wooden person, not moving at all.
Bai Junzhuo stared at the wine cup in front of the Southern Barbarian King. His right hand touched his small bag. If he wanted to poison it, this was an excellent opportunity.
However, how can I put my own poison and medicine in it?
Just as she was thinking, the Southern Barbarian King raised his glass and said something to everyone below. It was about announcing that he wanted to make Fu Mingyue a princess. Then, he turned to look at Fu Mingyue and said to her, “Princess, let me toast you. From now on, you will be my only princess.”
Only then did Fu Mingyue have a slight reaction on her face. She lowered her head and looked at the cup in front of her. She reached out and picked it up. Just as she raised her chest, her fingers involuntarily trembled. Then, with a “pa” sound, the glass fell to the ground.
