Evil Doctor Princess - Chapter 50
Chapter 050 Suppression Begins in the Heart
Cha Jinzhi stood up abruptly and pointed at Yin Xun in surprise.
“No wonder I thought you looked familiar last night. I remember who you are!”
These words caused Yin Xun’s expression to change. He didn’t want Bai Junzhuo to know his identity so early. Hopefully, Cha Jinzhi would still be able to recognize the general situation and wouldn’t speak nonsense.
He said in a deep voice, “Lord Cha, don’t speak nonsense. I have never seen you before.”
“A month ago in Xuchang, Prince Jinnan invited officials and his good friends to hunt. I saw you there! You are a good friend of Prince Jinnan,” Cha Jinzhi said with a frown.
Hearing this, Yin Xun heaved a sigh of relief, but he still didn’t recognize him.
However, Cha Jinzhi was really stupid. Although he wore casual clothes that day, almost everyone present guessed that he was the Ninth Prince, and he had changed his ways to flatter him. He actually didn’t recognize him. He really doubted how he managed to get to the position of secretariat.
“So what?” Yin Xun’s expression recovered as he raised his eyebrows and asked.
“Of course not. However, this young master, Miss Bai and I are already on a skin-to-skin blind date. Why do you want to beat the mandarin ducks and tear us apart?” Cha Jin’s face was filled with righteous indignation, as if the man in front of him was a traitor.
Bai Junzhuo hurriedly stood up and said, “Right, I was with Young Master Yin last night. Nothing happened with Lord Cha. Young Master Yin, quickly testify to me!”
Her eyes revealed a look of pleading for help, completely different from the way she had used her sharp teeth and sharp mouth to deal with other people.
It was rare to see her like this, and when he thought of the calamity he had suffered last night, a hint of teasing appeared in Yin Xun’s heart. He said faintly, “Didn’t I take a cold bath alone all night last night? Where was I with Miss Bai?”
“Hey!” Bai Junzhuo looked at him angrily. What was he trying to do?
“Miss Bai, why do you have to?” Cha Jinzhi said in a somewhat sad tone. “I know that a girl like you is very important to her reputation. That’s why she wants this young master to lie for you. But if you marry me, the incident last night will be logical and you won’t lose your innocence.”
After a pause, he said seriously to Yin Xun, “Since that’s the case, did Young Master agree to let Miss Bai marry me?”
“No.” Yin Xun resolutely refused.
“You!” Cha Jinzhi was anxious, “I’ve already begged Old Lady, she agreed to betroth Miss Bai to me!”
“If I don’t agree, she won’t marry Miss Bai to you.” Yin Xun said calmly.
Of course, Cha Jinzhi didn’t believe it. He turned around and walked to Madam Zou’s room, wanting to ask what exactly happened.
Bai Junzhuo and Yin Xun were left behind in the pavilion. Bai Junzhuo asked angrily, “Since you don’t agree to my marrying him, why didn’t you say that I was with you last night? Why bother involving so many things? Are you sick?”
Yin Xun lightly coughed twice and nodded, “That’s right, he’s sick.”
Bai Junzhuo was angry just now. Now that he saw that Yin Xun’s face was slightly pale, he thought of the cold poison in his body and the cold water he had soaked last night. For some reason, the gloom in his heart was replaced by worry. He quickly changed his tone, but his tone was still unkind. “How are you? You can’t die for the time being, right?”
Yin Xun grew weaker and weaker, but he nodded his head and said, “I’ve troubled you. It’s just typhoid fever. Just give me some medicine for typhoid fever. I don’t think you’ll die for the time being.”
Bai Junzhuo took the initiative to check his pulse for a while. His body was still able to withstand this degree of illness, so he heaved a sigh of relief. “Your body is not suitable for taking too many medicines. Take some isatis root that can cure all diseases and drink some ginger soup.”
Bai Junzhuo retracted his hand and regained his sullen expression.
She was always wise and calm to others, gentle and courteous. Only in front of herself would she reveal such a look. An inexplicable sense of accomplishment surged into his heart. The corner of Yin Xun’s mouth curled into a smile, “You don’t want to marry him?”
“Of course not!”
“Why? He is a third-grade official of the Imperial Court. He looks dignified and upright. Are you not satisfied?”
For some reason, Bai Junzhuo was even angrier when he heard this. He said angrily, “So you are so satisfied with him, then you should marry him!”
“I’m a man. How can I marry someone else?” Yin Xun looked at her helplessly and asked, “Or is it that Miss Bai has someone in her heart, so she doesn’t want to marry Lord Cha?”
Bai Junzhuo’s face immediately flushed red as he hurriedly said, “What nonsense are you talking about? I am a woman with ideals and ambitions. How can I fall into the marriage cage so early and live a busy life in the backyard?”
Yin Xun asked curiously, “What are your ideals?”
“Naturally, I will expand the Bai Clan’s business and become the richest person in this era. I am even richer than the rumored Ninth Prince of a wealthy country!” Bai Junzhuo’s eyebrows lit up as he described his ideals.
Yin Xun smiled and said, “So Miss Bai and my ambitions coincide.”
“That’s why you can’t allow me to marry him no matter what!”
As soon as Bai Junzhuo finished speaking, he saw Cha Jin walk over with an unwilling expression.
Cha Jinzhi’s eyes revealed a cold light as he stared at Yin Xun and said, “Young Master Yin, what exactly do you want Miss Bai to marry me?”
Yin Xun crossed his arms around his chest and looked at Bai Junzhuo. Seeing that she was shaking her head at him, he raised his eyebrows and smiled, “Has Lord Cha heard about the horse bandits’ insurrection before?”
Cha Jin was stunned. He didn’t expect Yin Xun to change the topic and talk about this.
He nodded and said, “I will hand this matter over to Lord Ma. He has already sent people to encircle and exterminate those horse bandits.”
“You’ve been tricked!” Bai Junzhuo remembered that he had been kidnapped and could not help but interrupt, “Lord Ma just put up a notice and let go of this matter. The bandit was eliminated has nothing to do with him. Moreover, before this, he had also turned a blind eye to this group of bandit. The people had long complained, but dared not say anything.”
Cha Jinzhi didn’t seem to believe it, “But why hasn’t anyone told me? Even last night, when I was traveling in Luoyang City, I heard praises for Lord Ma.”
“You’ve only traveled a street. You can naturally only hear what Ma Lianzhou wants you to hear,” Yin Xun said coldly. “Lord Cha, aren’t you worthy of the official seal in your arms?”
Cha Jinzhi lowered his eyes and pondered for a moment. He suddenly raised his head and said, “This official will immediately investigate this matter thoroughly. If Lord Ma is really in his position and does not seek his government, this official will stand up for the people. However, if Young Master deliberately slandered the Imperial Court’s Priestess, this official will not let Lord Ma suffer any injustice. Even if you are a friend of the Crown Prince of Jinnan, this official will not give you face!”
After saying that, Cha Jinzhi gently said to Bai Junzhuo, “Miss Bai, after I settle this matter, I will discuss our marriage with you.”
Bai Junzhuo took a step back and hurriedly waved his hand, “Lord Cha, you must put politics first. Please put aside the matter of your child’s love.”
When she said this, Cha Jinzhi was even more touched. He felt that Bai Junzhuo was more understanding and left.
Yin Xun, who had watched the joke for a long time, could not help but say, “He seems to be determined to marry you.”
Bai Junzhuo glared at him, “He just misunderstood that I had an affair with him last night. You know I didn’t, why didn’t you explain it for me?”
Yin Xun asked, “Why should I explain it to you?”
“Hey! It’s just a simple matter, why are you like this!”
Yin Xun raised his eyebrows and asked, “What am I doing?”
“I don’t have any sympathy at all. Forget it, I’m too lazy to argue with someone like you.” Bai Junzhuo didn’t want to talk to him anymore and turned around to leave.
Yin Xun hurriedly asked, “Where are you going?”
“It’s none of your business!”
Yin Xun was stunned for a moment before he laughed again, “You must have thought that my typhoid fever hasn’t healed yet, so you’re going to boil me some ginger soup.”
“Whoever wants to make you ginger soup, it’s good that you’re dead,” Bai Jun said without turning his head back.
Yin Xun took a step forward and caught up with her. “I am your master. It is only natural that you should make the ginger soup for me. There is nothing wrong with that.”
Feeling Yin Xun’s aura pressing down on him, Bai Junzhuo raised his hand and slapped him, but he landed firmly in his opponent’s hand.
“Otherwise,” Yin Xun said softly, his lips slightly curled up as he approached Bai Junzhuo’s ear. “I can only kindly do my duty as a master and prepare a dowry for you.”
“You!”
She finally understood why this person was unwilling to explain it to Cha Jinzhi. He wanted to grab hold of this trick and threaten her to be a cow and horse for him!
Her eyes widened as if she was going to eat him, but in the end, she snorted coldly and broke off his hand to boil the ginger soup for him.
After obediently washing the ginger and boiling the water, Bai Junzhuo suddenly realized a big problem.
Why was she always able to maintain a clear mind when dealing with others, not at all at a disadvantage, but she was always defeated and eaten to death when dealing with him?
No! He had to turn this situation around, and he couldn’t keep suppressing it.
Bai Junzhuo stared at the ginger in his hand and revealed a scheming smile.

After sending Bai Juntao away, Lin Bailian’s mind was still circling around what she had said to her. When she returned to the Bai Manor, she still looked as if she had lost her soul. She did not even notice that Bai Gongyuan was walking towards her.
Mei Fang noticed that her master’s expression was not right. She tugged at Lin Bailian’s sleeve with one hand and hurriedly went forward to salute, “Hello, Second Master.”
Lin Bailian came back to her senses and realized that Bai Gongyuan was right in front of her. Her eyes almost burst into tears.
“Mei Fang, go to the side and guard. I have something to say to Second Master.”
Mei Fang retreated and stood guard for Lin Bailian not far away. Lin Bailian could no longer hold back her tears and whispered, “Second Master, Tao’er was punished by Aunt into the temple …”
Bai Gongyuan hurriedly comforted, “I know about this matter. Stop crying. It’s important to calm down and think of a way.”
Lin Bailian bit her lip and said, “Tao’er is gone, and Lan’er’s whereabouts are unknown. How can I calm down …”
“Lian’er!” Bai Gongyuan held her hand and said, “Lan’er, don’t worry for the time being. If that person wants the Bai Clan Scroll, he won’t do anything to Lan’er. Tao’er, don’t worry for the time being. Send a few of your own people over to take care of her and won’t let her suffer. What we need to do now is to get the Scroll and the Medicine Hall so that we can save Lan’er and Tao’er!”
‘”Easy to say,” Lin Bailian said with tears in her eyes. “Think of a way to get the medicine hall back from that little bitch Bai Junzhuo!”
Bai Gongyuan didn’t know what to do. In the past few days, the Zou clan had forced him to take a concubine, and he was also in deep trouble.
At this moment, a faint voice sounded from behind him.
“Second Master and Concubine Lin are really excited. Aren’t you afraid of people gossiping during the broad daytime?”
