Evil Doctor Princess - Chapter 47
Chapter 047 Beating White Monarch Peach
“Miss Bai’s heart.” Shen Qing replied.
Yin Xun remained silent, his eyes flashing with a faint light, as if he was thinking of something.
Shen Qing continued, “Lu Kang said. According to his observation of Miss Bai and what we have heard, Miss Bai’s character is quite kind, but she has to be avenged.” “Miss Bai harmed her time and time again, and competed with her for the medicine hall that she valued the most. Miss Bai might not become the staircase between Master and Old Lady, but instead, she would fall to the ground and cut Miss Bai off with a single kick, completely destroying the already precarious relationship between Master and Old Lady. Master would never be able to get that thing again.”
Yin Xun’s expression was solemn and cold. “The hearts of people are the hardest to control. If that’s the case, this prince is not afraid to go head-on with Madam Zou.”
Shen Qing stopped talking.
Not long after, Mo Ying came in from outside.
“Master, this subordinate has already delivered the glass crystal lamp you brought last night to Miss Bai according to Lu Kang’s instructions. Miss Bai has also returned to the Bai Manor. She actually dares to drug Master. This subordinate will go over and kill her now!”
“Wait,” Yin Xun stopped him, “I’ll go by myself.”
“Yes.”

In the room, Bai Junzhuo stared at the glass crystal lamp in a daze. Xingzi brought it over earlier and flattered her, “Miss, this servant didn’t leave without saying a word last night. There was a reason!”
Bai Junzhuo did not react at all. Xingzi scratched his head and continued, “Miss, are you tired? You didn’t sleep last night. Hurry up and rest.”
Bai Junzhuo flipped the lamp around in his hand and suddenly said to himself, “He hasn’t given me 100,000 taels of silver yet. No, I have to ask him for money.”
“What?” Xing Zi looked at her inexplicably.
At this moment, Nurse He hurriedly walked in from outside and knelt in front of Bai Junzhuo. “Third Miss, Old Lady, please go over.”
Bai Junzhuo was shocked. He Mammy had been with Madam Zou for decades. Normally, she would only show a slight courtesy when she saw the young miss and concubine mother of the manor. Now, she actually knelt down. Bai Junzhuo knew that something big must have happened.
She ordered Xingzi to help Nurse He up and asked, “Why is Nurse He so flustered?”
“Third Young Miss, please personally go over. Old Lady will explain to Third Young Miss.” Nurse He did not answer directly.
Bai Junzhuo thought for a moment, and then he got up and said, “Alright, let’s go.”
Not long after, Bai Junzhuo followed Nurse He into Madam Zou’s room. With a single glance, she saw Bai Juntao kneeling under Madam Zou. She knew that it should be as she had guessed.
Mrs. Zou saw Bai Jun burning over, so she retreated from the rest of the servants and slowly walked down with her walking stick.
Bai Junzhuo hurriedly went up to support her and asked with a puzzled expression, “Grandma, why did you call me over?”
Madam Zou patted the back of her hand and said softly, “Zhuo’er, I heard that you prescribed medicine for Young Master Yin last night and didn’t sleep all night. I’m afraid you must be exhausted.”
Bai Junzhuo shook his head.
Madam Zou was slightly shocked. He turned to Bai Juntao, who was kneeling on the ground, and said, “Hurry up and apologize to Zhuo’er!”
Bai Juntao had a reluctant expression on her face, but she still obediently came over and said to Bai Junzhuo, “Third sister, please forgive Big Sister. Big Sister was also confused last night …”
Bai Junzhuo raised his eyebrows and smiled, “Why are you apologizing? Is it to poison Young Master Yin and tire me of detoxifying me all night, or is it to send someone to kidnap me and drug me?”
“What?” Madam Zou suddenly broke away from Bai Junzhuo’s hand and pointed at Bai Juntao. “You did this?!”
“I … Grandma …” Bai Juntao saw that Mrs. Zou seemed to be very angry. She hurriedly hugged her leg and cried for mercy. “Grandma, I was wrong. I was just obsessed. It was the demons of the Bai Manor who had infatuated my mind …”
Bai Junzhuo sneered and said faintly, “It’s really a good thing that our Bai Manor is haunted by ghosts. Anything we do wrong in the future can be attributed to ghosts and devils.”
Mrs. Zou waved the cane in her hand and beat Bai Juntao fiercely. She said angrily, “You foolish bastard, you’re not enough to deal with Young Master Yin. You’re even going to deal with your third sister. I’ll kill you!”
Mrs. Zou had always loved Bai Juntao before, but this was the first time she had been hit. Bai Juntao was immediately stunned and stared blankly at Mrs. Zou, unable to utter a single word.
Bai Junzhuo was somewhat surprised. She guessed that Madam Zou would definitely punish her slightly to vent her anger in order to save Bai Juntao, but she did not expect Madam Zou to make a move.
Seeing Madam Zou fight twice, Bai Junzhuo thought that he should also speak out to persuade her. Otherwise, he would be too ignorant.
“Grandma,” she said, stopping Madam Zou and pleading for Bai Juntao’s forgiveness. “Forget it, Young Master Yin and I are fine now anyway. Grandma shouldn’t be too hard on Big Sister.”
Mrs. Zou gasped for breath and put down her walking stick. She said to Bai Juntao, “Zhuo’er is a family member and is not willing to argue with you, but Young Master Yin wants you to pay for it. Do you know?”
Bai Juntao looked at her dejectedly and muttered to herself, “Pay for your life … Hahahaha, he actually treated me like this!”
She seemed to have gone mad all of a sudden. Suddenly, she turned to Bai Junzhuo and said gloomily, “I can’t get him, and you can’t even think about it. Do you know who he is? He is …”
“Shut up!” Madam Zou slapped her in the face and ruthlessly knocked Bai Juntao to the ground. A bloody smell spread out from her mouth. Her head coaxed and she almost lost consciousness.
Bai Junzhuo was also shocked by Madam Zou’s ruthlessness, and even ignored the half sentence that Bai Juntao had not finished just now.
At this moment, the room was terrifyingly quiet.
After a long time, Bai Junzhuo regained his senses and supported Mrs. Zou, who was trembling, saying, “Grandma, let me help you sit down.”
‘”No need,” Madam Zou shook his head. “Zhuo’er, you’ve been beaten and scolded. Do you still hate your eldest sister?”
Bai Junzhuo clenched his fists tightly, hatred really wasn’t enough, but Bai Juntao took the initiative to harm her time and time again, so she definitely wouldn’t let her off lightly!
Although he thought so, he said calmly, “Grandma, where is this? After all, she is a member of her own family. What kind of deep hatred can she have?”
Madam Zou nodded in satisfaction and said softly, “Zhuo’er, are you willing to go to Young Master Yin’s place and plead for mercy for your eldest sister?”
Bai Junzhuo said helplessly, “Young Master Yin doesn’t even sell his grandmother’s face. What virtue do I have to persuade Young Master Yin?”
Madam Zou’s body trembled slightly and he was very sad. “Is Zhuo’er still unwilling to forgive your eldest sister?”
“No.” Bai Junzhuo hurriedly shook his head.
‘”You only need Young Master Yin to spare her life. I will definitely punish her properly and vent my anger on Young Master Yin and you.” Madam Zou’s eyes flickered and tears still flashed. “But she is also a member of the Bai Clan. Don’t take her life.”
At this moment, Madam Zou was just a grandmother who cared about her granddaughter. She was indeed pitiful.
When Bai Jun Zhuo saw her like this, he could only nod his head and say, “I will go beg Young Master Yin for mercy, but whether he is willing to forgive Eldest Sister or not can only depend on Eldest Sister’s good fortune.”
Mrs. Zou nodded her head in satisfaction and looked at Bai Juntao, “Why don’t you quickly thank your third sister!”
Bai Juntao seemed to be stunned by the slap. She only stared blankly at Bai Junzhuo, but could not say a word.
“No need.” Bai Junzhuo shook his head and said, “Grandma, I’ll go beg Young Master Yin now.”
After saying that, Bai Junzhuo retreated.
Mrs. Zou looked at Bai Juntao, who was kneeling on the ground, and silently sighed.

In the western room, Bai Junzhuo knocked on the door and entered. Yin Xun sat next to the carved window, holding a book in his hand. Just a side face was enough to make people unable to move their eyes away.
Bai Junzhuo still broke the silent and beautiful scene. “Did you tell Grandma what happened last night?”
Duanfang Ruyu’s young master lazily looked at her and replied indifferently, “Even if I didn’t say anything, Mrs. Zou would definitely know.”
“You want to kill Bai Juntao?”
Yin Xun nodded. “Last night, I reminded her that if she was willing to hand over the antidote, I could spare her life for Madam Zou’s sake, but she didn’t.”
Bai Junzhuo sneered, “Young Master Yin, what a big tone. You are only the second son of an ordinary merchant family in Xuchang. What qualifications do you have to look down on people’s lives?”
Yin Xun knew that she was beginning to doubt her identity again, so he quietly replied, “It’s not an ordinary merchant family. Rather, she has a close relationship with the nobles of the Imperial Palace, so she can act recklessly. Besides, this isn’t a disregard for human life. After all, she was the one who caused me to be in the front.”
Bai Junzhuo was silent. Should she believe him?
Yin Xun casually knocked on the table and asked, “What about Miss Bai? Don’t you hate your sister for harming you like this?”
“Since she harmed me, I naturally won’t let her off lightly.” Bai Junzhuo came back to her senses and said to Yin Xun carefully, “But we’re fine now, and she can’t die.”
“Are you begging me to let her go?” Yin Xun seemed to be surprised.
“I have to spare people and spare them. When my father was alive, he always said that those who do good will be rewarded with good deeds. Don’t do anything too extreme. Give others the back road and you will be given your own back road.” Bai Junzhuo lowered his head and said these words, not looking at Yin Xun’s expression.
Yin Xun held his chin and stared at her. He smiled and said, “I didn’t expect Miss Bai to be such a kind person. When you and I plotted to harm that Profound Maiden, it wasn’t like this.”
Bai Junzhuo murmured, “Mysterious Maiden Young …” “You must be on guard against others. The purpose of my plan with you is not to harm her, but to protect myself.”
“You always exceed my expectations.” Yin Xun’s gaze was warm as he said in a clear voice, “Forget it, for your sake, let her live. However, death is avoidable, and death is unforgivable. Go tell Madam Zou that I don’t want to see her again.”
“Yes.” Bai Junzhuo nodded and was about to turn around and leave.
Yin Xun said, “Wait.”
Bai Junzhuo turned around and asked, “Is there anything else?”
“I’ll spare her. You owe me a favor. How are you going to pay me back?” Yin Xun asked with a smile.
Bai Junzhuo frowned, “I said I would cure the poison on your body.”
“One yard for one yard. Your condition for detoxification is the Alchemy Hall.” A scheming look flashed across Yin Xun’s eyes as he said faintly, “I’ll spare her. You have to agree to another condition.”
