Evil Doctor Princess - Chapter 305
Chapter 305 It’s Too Late
Yin Xun asked, “Why?”
“I want to protect everyone so that the people of Li Kingdom can live and work in peace. I want to be a successful emperor. I don’t want to live forever, but under my rule, generally speaking, everyone can be happy.” As Yin Mu spoke, he laughed self-deprecatingly and continued, “I only want to make everyone live a good life, but I can’t even accommodate my own brothers.”
After saying that, the three of them fell silent for a long time. Finally, Yin Xun opened his mouth and said, “Royal Brother, I know your difficulties. I have never blamed you.”
Yin Mu smiled gently and said to Yin Ji, “Big brother, we can’t hurt our most important people anymore. Otherwise, even if we sit at the top, how lonely would that be?”
Yin Ji’s lips trembled slightly, but he still didn’t say anything.
“I’m glad I saved you when I was young out of kindness. This is the most correct thing I’ve done in my first half of my life.” “Brother Yin Mu said,” Since you have come to the Southern Region, don’t go back. I will make you king. The Southern Region is all your territory, so you can protect the territory of the Li Kingdom with me. ”
Yin Ji’s riddled face was slightly moved, but he still didn’t say anything. He only snorted coldly and said to Yin Mu, “Since I fell into your hands, it’s up to you to deal with me.”
Yin Mu reached out and patted Yin Ji’s shoulder, just like a brother from an ordinary family. Immediately after, someone came over and brought Yin Ji down, leaving only Yin Mu and Yin Xun in the tent.
Yin Xun had been observing Yin Mu since just now. Yin Mu had already noticed it and asked him, “What’s wrong? Do you feel that you’re a little different from your brother?”
“No,” Yin Xun shook his head. “I just feel that Royal Brother has finally returned to his original appearance. At the beginning, you and I didn’t know how to play tricks on each other.”
Yin Mu seemed to recall the past as well. He smiled and said, “You followed me every day, like a piece of candy.”
“Because only Brother Huang was really nice to me,” Yin Xun said. “Even though I was young at that time, I wasn’t completely unaware of the Empress Dowager’s intentions towards me. I felt like I was alone, and everyone wanted to harm me. Without Brother Huang’s protection, I probably wouldn’t be able to live until now.”
Yin Mu looked at him for a while and suddenly said to him, “Thank you.”
Yin Xun raised his eyebrows and asked curiously, “Why are you thanking me?”
Yin Mu asked, “Don’t you know what you’ve done?”
Yin Xun thought about it carefully for a while and said, “Does Royal Brother mean to bring the army back? You don’t have to thank me. All the soldiers in the army are bent on killing the enemy and guarding Li Country. Even without me, Ye Cheng will bring all the soldiers back.”
“You still don’t know how powerful you are,” Yin Mu looked at him helplessly. “I came to my senses because of you.”
Yin Xun smiled embarrassedly and said, “Royal Brother Yan Zhong, I really didn’t know I had such great ability. I never thought that just bringing the army back to the barracks would allow you to comprehend so much.”
Yin Mu paused for a moment and said to him, “It’s not because you brought back the army and handed it over to me, nor because you gave up this good opportunity to rebel. It’s because you treated me like a brother from beginning to end. It was you who saved me.”
Yin Xun smiled and leaned over Yin Mu’s shoulder. “Royal Brother, what kind of courtesy are you talking about?”
“That’s right, my brother doesn’t need to talk so much nonsense.” Yin Mu patted him on the back and asked him, “Are you planning on escaping with your princess tonight?”
“It’s not escape,” Yin Xun shook his head. “For a variety of reasons, Shen Wujie helplessly brought Baoyu north. I need to find them.”
“You don’t have to worry about this at all. The people I sent to keep an eye on Yin Ji have long since followed Shen Wuji and Baoyu.” Yin Mu said to him, “You go back to Chang’an and wait. I’ll have someone send your daughter back to Chang’an.”
“Really?” Yin Xun revealed a happy expression. After thinking for a moment, he asked, “Wu Country will not fight again in the near future if they lose this time. They will rest for at least ten to eight years. And Li Country is not suitable to continue fighting after experiencing two consecutive battles. Since that is the case, does Royal Brother also want to return to the court?”
Yin Mu nodded and said, “Yes, we must put an end to the war now.”
“Then why should I go back to Chang’an first? Shouldn’t we go back together?” Yin Xun asked.
Yin Mu’s gaze seemed to be filled with guilt. He was silent for a while, then said seriously to Yin Xun, “I’m going to bring my queen back.”
After he finished speaking, he fell silent again. He recalled everything that had happened before. His life had been bumpy and uneven. In the past, living under the shadow of a powerful mother made him feel that it was terrifying to any woman in this world. Especially for a ruthless person like Fu Mingyue, he could only use it, not give his heart. Unexpectedly, she was devoted to him. For him, she could lose everything.
It was only now that he realized how important she was in his heart. If he had known earlier, he would never have done so many bastards.
Yin Xun kept looking at him. Seeing that he hadn’t spoken for a long time, he touched him with his arm and said to him, “Royal Brother, you can go. There is only one life, and no one can die. If you don’t compensate the person you have wronged in this life, you will be buried with regret.”
Yin Mu smiled at him and said, “I know. Tomorrow, I’ll go to the Southern Barbarians and bring her back. Hurry up and chase after your family’s man. Otherwise, we’ll run away later!”
Yin Xun saw that he was laughing, so he nodded and walked out.
When he caught up with Bai Junzhuo, Yin Xun told Bai Junzhuo that Yin Mu had repented and would have someone bring the precious jade back to Chang’an and wait for the precious jade with her. Bai Junzhuo did not believe it at first. When Yin Xun said that Yin Mu was going to save Fu Mingyue, she returned to Chang’an with Yin Xun doubtfully.
During the period of Yin Mu’s absence, Bai Xu and Lu Kang handled their affairs in an orderly manner. Bai Xu’s characteristics that surpassed ordinary people in this aspect also gradually revealed. Whether it was an old official or a new official in the court, they were all very convinced of Bai Xu.
When he was idle and bored, Bai Junzhuo also tried to test the meaning of the Ancient Fish Princess to see if she still had feelings for Bai Xu. If she did, she could still set her up. Anyway, Yin Che was not interested in her.
However, Princess Guyu was always evasive and did not give a direct answer. Bai Xu was also afraid of this problem, as if he had no intention of reconciling.
There was another person who ran to Ninth King’s Mansion three times a day during this period of time. She was Shui Lingyu.
Every day, she would ask Shen Wujie about his whereabouts and leave in disappointment. I heard that Prince Chen Cang has urged her to leave Chang’an and return to be with them many times, but Shui Lingyu refused.
After waiting for more than ten days, Shui Lingyu suddenly came over and told Bai Junzhuo that she was leaving Chang’an for her parents. King Chencang found a good husband for her, and she no longer waited for Shen Wujie.
Hearing this news, Bai Junzhuo felt a little sad. It turned out that not everyone in this world had the chance to be with their loved ones. Not many people had no regrets in their lives.
They were still waiting. After waiting for more than half a month, they still hadn’t seen anyone bring the precious jade back, nor did they see Yin Mu bring the army and Fu Mingyue back. They also hadn’t heard any news of another war in the southern border. In short, they didn’t know anything about it.
The more Bai Jun Zhuo waited, the more irritated he became. Just as she couldn’t wait to find the precious jade herself, Yin Mu’s people arrived in Ninth King’s Mansion.
Those people knelt in front of Yin Xun and Bai Junzhuo and said to them, “We were discovered by Shen Wujie when we were following Shen Wujie and the Little Princess. He abandoned us, and we searched for a long time but didn’t find them again.”
Upon hearing this news, Bai Junzhuo heaved a sigh of relief. It looked like Shen Wujie was alive and kicking. Furthermore, he was so clever that Baoyu wouldn’t be in any danger if he followed him for the time being.
However, he immediately grabbed his heart. If that was the case, where would they go to find Shen Wujie?
After thinking for a long time, Yin Xun said, “The territory of Li Kingdom is vast. If we rashly search for it, it will be very difficult to find it. Shen Wuji should send the precious jade back to Chang’an. You and I will wait in Chang’an now. I will send people to search around Li Kingdom.”
Bai Junzhuo felt helpless in his heart, but there was no better way, so he could only agree.
He asked them, “Where did you get dumped by Shen Wujie?”
The man replied, “You Zhou.”
Yin Xun nodded and said to Bai Junzhuo, “I will immediately send someone to Youzhou to investigate.”
Bai Junzhuo pursed his lips and suppressed the worry in his heart. “You Zhou is too far from the southern border. I guess Shen Wujie doesn’t know about the victory of the Li Kingdom yet. He might have to continue to the north.”
Yin Xun comforted her, “Then ask someone to look north again. Worry is useless. Just wait and see.”
“Yes.” Bai Junzhuo nodded.
On the same day, news finally came from Chang’an that Yin Mu had returned from a great victory and had already arrived outside Chang’an. Presumably, Fu Mingyue had also been safely rescued.
Bai Junzhuo stayed in Ninth King’s Mansion and did not go out to watch the show.
Until Youshi, someone suddenly came from the palace, saying that the Empress was sick and wanted to invite Bai Jun to burn into the palace.
Bai Junzhuo thought of what he had said to Fu Mingyue in the Southern Barbarians. If he saw her again, he wished he could start from scratch. Since she had already said so, she naturally had no reason to forget her grudges.
She immediately went into the palace.
Along the way, Bai Junzhuo felt uneasy. He didn’t know what kind of expression he would use to face Fu Mingyue. Finally, they arrived at the West Inner Court’s dormitory. When they entered, they saw Yin Mu sitting there, his face full of vicissitudes. He did not look as energetic as before.
Bai Junzhuo was shocked. He didn’t expect Yin Mu to look like this after not seeing him for half a month. When Yin Mu saw that she was here, he pointed to the curtain inside and said, “Mingyue is inside. Go take a look.”
His hoarse and aged voice caused Bai Junzhuo’s heart to tighten. He wondered if something had happened to Fu Mingyue, right?
She hurriedly went in and saw Fu Mingyue lying on the bed, her breathing weak, her skinny bones like firewood, completely different from when she parted. Little Yan stood by the bed and looked after Fu Mingyue, not recognizing Bai Junzhuo.
Bai Junzhuo hurriedly went over to check her pulse. He checked her entire body, and his heart grew more and more worried.
She was surprised that Fu Mingyue’s body had actually become like this. She asked Yin Mu, “What exactly happened?”
