Evil Doctor Princess - Chapter 297
Chapter 297 Phoenix Bathed In Fire
Fu Mingyue said, “Then now, have someone kill Sheng Ji and avenge the king.”
The first prince was stunned for a moment. Although it was slightly inappropriate to execute Sheng Ji so arbitrarily, it was indeed in line with his intentions. After executing Sheng Ji, the Second Prince and the Sixth Prince would lose a stable backer. Then he cupped his fists and said, “Yes, I’ll send someone to do it now.”
After the first prince finished speaking, he turned around and instructed his followers behind him. Fu Mingyue could not understand his words, so she nodded slightly to her and walked back to the bedroom with a sad expression. The four of them hurriedly followed.
When the four of them entered, they discovered that the chains were on the ground. Bai Junzhuo had already disappeared. The four of them were shocked. They all looked at Fu Mingyue and said, “Empress, where is the Ninth Princess?”
Fu Mingyue put her hair behind her ear and said coldly, “I don’t know. I probably escaped when I was just leaving.”
The four of them looked at each other before getting up to chase after Bai Junzhuo.
Fu Mingyue said again, “Bai Junzhuo is smart. I estimate that it will be very difficult for you to find her.”
The four of them stopped and listened to Fu Mingyue continue.
Fu Mingyue continued, “Your Majesty will definitely not forgive you for not bringing Bai Junzhuo back. However, if you can stay by my side and cooperate with my actions, you can make up for your mistakes.”
The four of them remained silent for a while before 11th said, “The Ninth Princess was still here just now, so she shouldn’t be going far now. Please rest assured, Empress. We will definitely bring the Ninth Princess back.”
After saying that, the four of them stood up and left.
Fu Mingyue did not stop them. After they left, they called Little Yan in again. This was the first time Little Yan had seen Fu Mingyue in Bai Junzhuo’s absence, and he was still a little nervous.
Fu Mingyue looked at her with a smile and waved to her, “Come here.”
Little Yan hurriedly walked over and was about to kneel down to salute when Fu Mingyue reached out to stop her and said, “Don’t bow in front of me in the future.”
Little Yan nodded and stood up. She looked around and asked, “Princess, why is sister Xiao Bai not here?”
“She went out to do something for me. She might not be able to see her again until we leave the palace.” As Fu Mingyue spoke, she looked at Xiao Yan and said, “Did she tell you about me before?”
Little Yan suddenly raised his head and immediately shook his head, “No, I’ve never heard of it.”
Fu Mingyue chuckled and said, “She is my trusted maidservant. Whatever she tells you, it is naturally with my permission. You don’t have to hide it from me. Just tell me directly.”
Little Yan thought for a moment before replying, “When I first met Sister Xiao Bai, she secretly told me that the Princess did not like the Southern Barbarian King at all and that the Princess loved His Majesty deeply. However, this servant later saw that the Princess and the Southern Barbarian King got along very well.”
Fu Mingyue still chuckled. If she really got along well with the Southern Barbarian King, how could she not have a sad expression now that his corpse was still cold? Furthermore, she had already begun to gather people’s hearts and plan for her future.
She asked Xiao Yan, “Are you also from Lebanon?”
Little Yan nodded.
“Why did you come to the Southern Barbarian Palace?”
“When this servant was young, she was abducted and sold by someone else.”
“Then do you want to return to Li Country?” Fu Mingyue asked her, “Do you have any family in Li Country? Do you want to go back and see them?”
Little Yan’s eyes immediately lit up and he asked her, “Is this servant really okay?”
Fu Mingyue nodded and then said to her in a deep voice, “Xiao Bai is right. This palace has indeed never liked the Southern Barbarian King. I have always wanted to run away from him. Now that he is dead, this is a good opportunity. Will you help me?”
Little Yan stared blankly at Fu Mingyue.
“As long as you listen to me and work well for me, one day I will be able to return to the Li Kingdom, and I will definitely bring you with me.” Fu Mingyue’s tone was calm, without any intention of coercion. “However, if you decide to be loyal to the Southern Barbarian Royal Family, I will definitely not force you. The door is right there. You can leave at any time, and I will definitely not stop you.”
Little Yan thought for a moment, then immediately knelt down and said, “This servant used to live a life worse than a pig or a dog. After meeting Sister Xiao Bai and the King … the Empress finally recovered. This servant is absolutely obedient to the Empress. I will do whatever the Empress tells me to do!”
Fu Mingyue nodded her head gently and reached out to help her up. “This palace has nothing dangerous to tell you. Now that Xiao Bai is not here, you can follow this palace and serve him.”
Little Yan hurriedly nodded.
At this moment, someone outside said that the first prince had requested to see him. Fu Mingyue adjusted her expression and asked Little Yan to open the door for him.
After the first prince came in, he bowed to Southern Barbarians and said to Fu Mingyue, “Sheng Ji has been executed. Second and sixth brothers said that Sheng Ji was wrongly accused. They want to fight me and avenge her mother’s imperial concubine.”
Fu Mingyue looked scared and said to him, “Then what should I do? I…”
“You don’t have to be afraid. I’ve been waiting for them to make a move.” As the first prince spoke, he wanted to go up and comfort Fu Mingyue. Seeing that there was a maid here, he felt that it was not appropriate. He looked at Little Yan and said to Fu Mingyue, “There are some things I want to discuss with you alone.”
Hearing what he said, Fu Mingyue said to Little Yan, “Wait outside.”
After Xiao Yan stepped down, the first prince said to Fu Mingyue, “Our Southern Barbarians are not like Li Country. They can become emperors when they are old. The throne of Southern Barbarians is taken by themselves. I have already laid an ambush in my palace, waiting for the second prince and sixth prince to take action. I would like to thank you very much for taking care of our two opponents.”
Fu Mingyue looked as if she couldn’t bear it anymore and said to him, “It’s all my fault. I caused your brothers to be crippled.”
“How can you say that?” The first prince rushed forward to grab Fu Mingyue’s hand and said to her, “Didn’t you understand what I said just now? If I didn’t get your order to execute Sheng Ji, I wouldn’t be able to deal with the second prince and sixth prince so smoothly. You’ve helped me a lot!”
Fu Mingyue hurriedly pulled back her hand and lowered her head shyly without looking at him.
“Don’t worry, as long as you stand on my side, I will definitely give you everything you want when I become the new Southern Barbarian King.” The first prince also felt that it was a bit rude just now. He straightened his body and said, “Don’t worry, as long as you stand on my side, I will definitely give you everything you want when I become the new Southern Barbarian King.”
“Really?” Fu Mingyue looked up at him expectantly and immediately lowered her head.
The Eldest Prince couldn’t help but feel that she was becoming more and more adorable. He nodded solemnly and said, “Really. Furthermore, if you wish, I can let you continue to be the Princess of the Southern Barbarians.”
He lowered his voice and whispered in Fu Mingyue’s ear. Fu Mingyue hurriedly shook her head and said, “How can this be? I am your mother!”
The first prince explained to her in a serious tone, “It’s just a’count ‘. In our Southern Barbarian Kingdom, it’s normal for a child to have a concubine. As long as it’s not biological, no one would dare to say anything even if I married all the concubines of my father. Of course, I don’t want any of that. I just want you.”
His gaze was filled with affection, and Fu Mingyue seemed to be unable to withstand it, so she hurriedly lowered her head shyly.
Seeing her like this, the eldest prince thought in his heart that he couldn’t be too anxious. He had to take his time and bowed to her. He said, “I have finished what I wanted to say today. I will come back to find you in the future.”
Fu Mingyue whispered.
The eldest prince reluctantly left this place because he enjoyed her bird-like appearance.
As soon as he left, Fu Mingyue immediately removed her forced expression and looked at his back with a gloomy expression.
Little Yan walked in and asked Fu Mingyue, “Your Highness, where are the four guards?”
Fu Mingyue changed her expression and replied, “The four of them will come back.”
Little Yan nodded and asked, “Does the Empress need to call some Southern Barbarian guards to protect you? This servant always feels that things are starting to get messy now. I’m afraid it’s not safe for us to guard you.”
Fu Mingyue shook her head and said, “It doesn’t matter. Someone will secretly protect me.”
Xiao Yan nodded again, thinking in her heart that the Emperor of Li Kingdom should have sent someone to protect her.
Fu Mingyue turned around and listened to the movements outside. Although her footsteps were soft, she could still tell that many people were walking towards the bedroom. When he heard what the First Prince said just now, he knew that the First Prince would not call her dangerous. It should be his men outside by now.
Fu Mingyue yawned and said, “This palace is sleepy, serve me to bed.”
“Yes.” Little Yan hurriedly stepped forward and took off the hair accessories for Fu Mingyue.
It was rare for her to be able to sleep well after so many things had happened. The next morning, just as she was dressed up, Fu Mingyue saw the four people coming back.
She asked them, “What? Didn’t you find Bai Junzhuo?”
The four of them didn’t say anything and all knelt down.
“I suppose you all know very well what kind of punishment you will receive when you return, right?” Fu Mingyue asked them indifferently.
The four of them said in unison, “This subordinate is willing to stay and serve the Empress.”
Fu Mingyue smiled gently and turned to look at herself in the mirror. She was more beautiful than ever.

The Southern Barbarian Palace was near Chai Sang. Bai Junzhuo took advantage of the darkness and arrived at Chai Sang at dawn. Seeing that Chaisang City was safe and sound, she asked the passers-by. The passers-by also said that they did not hear any big movements from the military camp. This proved that nothing had happened to Yin Xun, so she felt relieved.
She bought a horse and rushed all the way to xiangyang. After sleeping in the open for a few days, she finally arrived at her destination. Disguised as xiangyang city, also found out that ye cheng and the others are in xiangyang satrap’s mansion, they hurriedly want to go in to spy.
That night, the moon was dim and the stars were dim. Bai Jun wore a black robe and hid behind a large tree at the entrance of the Governor’s Mansion. He intended to wait for the two people guarding the entrance to fall asleep before sneaking in.
She stared over there until she was drowsy and did not see the two guards at the door feel the slightest bit sleepy.
She couldn’t help but yawn. Suddenly, she saw the two guards at the door looking over and shouted, “Who was hiding there secretly?”
