Evil Doctor Princess - Chapter 78
Chapter 078 The Bai Manor Was in Turmoil
Yin Mu suddenly interrupted Lu Kang and stared at him, “Why did I secretly place you beside him?”
“Your Majesty’s orders are in my mind.”
“Then why are you still kneeling in front of me? Why aren’t you hurrying to catch up with him and keeping an eye on him!”
Lu Kang opened his eyes wide and looked at the Emperor in disbelief. He hesitated and said, “But the Empress Dowager …”
The Emperor’s tone finally calmed down and he raised his hand. “We have Zhen here to help him deal with the aftermath. Don’t waste any more time. Go.”
“Yes!” Lu Kang no longer hesitated and got up to leave.
Just as he left, a goose-yellow Imperial Concubine Shu walked out from behind the screen and said to the Emperor with a smile, “Your Majesty, what this concubine said is correct, isn’t it?”
The Emperor said helplessly, “I also want to go to Luoyang to see who that Miss Bai is. She actually worries Zisu so much that she even disobeys my orders.”
“Your Majesty will probably see it soon,” Imperial Concubine Shu smiled. “Your Majesty will definitely be satisfied with this sister-in-law.”

Luoyang Baifu.
Shen Qing originally thought that Bai Junzhuo wouldn’t be in any danger in the Bai Manor, so he didn’t follow her. But after waiting for half a day, he didn’t see Bai Junzhuo coming back and said to Xingzi, who was standing at the entrance of the courtyard, “Where’s Miss Bai? I’ll go and look for her.”
Xingzi looked outside with a worried tone, “Miss went to Old Lady’s courtyard to get justice for this servant.”
Shen Qing nodded and wanted to take a look at Madam Zou’s courtyard. Suddenly, she saw a large group of servants walking towards her, led by Lin Bailian’s confidant Mei Fang.
As soon as she entered, she proudly instructed, “Someone, move all the things in Third Miss’ courtyard. Those who are willing to follow Madam Cui Ying should report to Cui Ying. If you are unwilling, get the money and scram out of Bai Manor.”
When those people heard her words, they began to move things. If they couldn’t, they would smash them. Xingzi angrily rushed to Mei Fang and asked her, “Why did you move Miss’s things? Who are you?”
Mei Fang suddenly stretched out her hand to pinch Xingzi’s ear and fiercely said, “Damn girl, you dare to contradict me? Do you know that Old Lady has given the housekeeper’s authority to Madam? Whatever the madam of the Bai Clan says, Madam will remove all the things here!”
Xing Zi’s eyes turned red with pain. He stared at her and said, “You stinky, shameless woman. When Master was alive, he didn’t mention her as his wife! You people who stand up for others like dogs, wait for Miss to come back and drive all of you out of the Bai Clan!”
“Yo yo yo, this old servant is scared to death. You damn girl, you still don’t know that your young miss can’t return, right?” As she spoke, Mei Fang raised her hand and was about to draw an apricot. Apricot closed her eyes in fear, but she heard a loud bang. Then, Mei Fang cried out with tears in her heart and lungs.
Opening her eyes, Shen Qing pinched Mei Fang’s wrist. She had probably removed her arm.
“What do you mean Miss Bai can’t come back?” Shen Qing asked coldly.
Mei Fang said angrily, “That girl provoked Madam, tomorrow she will be burned to death. You reckless brat should also wait to die together!”
“Where is she now?” Shen Qing asked patiently.
Mei Fang sneered, “Wherever she is, you can’t save her!”
Shen Qing pinched her neck and lifted her up. “My patience is limited,” he said coldly.
Mei Fang rolled her eyes and was speechless. Her face instantly turned black and purple. Xingzi hurriedly pulled him and said, “Don’t strangle her to death.”
Shen Qing released her hand and Mei Fang heavily fell to the ground. She coughed twice and ordered, “Let’s go together and kill this damn girl and this man!”
The servants rushed forward. Shen Qing glanced at these people indifferently and did not dodge. When those people were within a foot of him, they attacked like lightning and broke their limbs in three or two strikes.
In just an incense stick of time, the courtyard was filled with wailing. The servants who were planning to abandon Bai Junzhuo and join Lin Bailian were stunned. They didn’t know what to do.
Shen Qing said to Xingzi, “I’m going to find Miss Bai. Stay here. I want to see who dares to touch the grass and trees in this courtyard today. If there really is someone who is not afraid of death, I will grant him!” After saying that, he walked out.
All the servants and maids who were loyal to Bai Junzhuo stood behind Xing Zi and glared at them angrily. Mei Fang glanced at them. She was already wounded on her side, so if she fought, she would definitely not be able to get away with it.
However, that formidable man went out to find Bai Junzhuo and couldn’t return for a while. If he rushed back now and brought a group of people over, he would definitely be able to complete the matter.
She endured the pain in her hands and struggled to stand up, saying to the others, “Let’s go!”
Shen Qing went straight to Madam Zou’s courtyard and saw that there was a large circle of servants in front of Madam Zou’s door. There was also a large gang tied up at the door. Some of the people who were kidnapped scolded, “Auntie Lin, you actually treated Madam Zou like this. You must die a terrible death!”
Just as he finished cursing, someone rushed over and slapped him.
Shen Qing noticed that something was amiss, so she didn’t rush over directly. Instead, she avoided the servants, circled around the back, and jumped in through the window.
Nanny He suddenly saw someone jump in and was so scared that she took two steps back. Fortunately, she immediately recognized him as someone beside Bai Junzhuo and did not exclaim.
Madam Zou, who was sitting on the couch, heard the commotion and asked, “What’s wrong?”
Nurse He replied, “It was the people beside Third Miss who sneaked in.”
Madam Zou raised his blank eyes and asked, “How is Zhuo’er?”
“I don’t know. I came out to search for the whereabouts of the third young miss.” Shen Qing then said, puzzled, “Old Lady, can you tell me what exactly is going on? In just a short moment, how did the Bai Manor change its appearance?”
Mrs. Zou’s face seemed to be filled with anger. She opened her mouth and shook her head helplessly. “Auntie Lin poisoned Old Madame and was discovered by Third Miss. Third Miss wanted to go get the evidence, but before she came back, Auntie Lin brought a large group of people to kidnap all the servants in Old Madame’s courtyard and locked up Old Madame and Old Servant here to prevent us from leaving.”
Shen Qing frowned slightly and asked, “But isn’t the real person in charge of the Bai Manor the matriarch? What right does she have to do this?”
Mrs. Zou sighed and said, “Many days ago, I noticed that she was dissatisfied with me. In order to appease her, I gave the White Manor to her to take charge of the family. But I didn’t expect that it would actually become such a field. Now, I truly regret it.”
The battle in this rear residence was even more intense than the battle in the court. Shen Qing thought for a moment and said, “I guess Miss Bai is also under their control.”
Mrs. Zou was silent, and her expression was filled with sorrow.
Nurse He suddenly knelt down and said to Shen Qing, “Young Master’s skill is extraordinary. Can you save Old Lady?”
Shen Qing hurriedly helped her up and nodded, “Killing those people guarding the door is not difficult for me.”
But Madam Zou shook his head and said, “Absolutely not. Zhuo’er’s whereabouts are unknown. If you really kill those people and save me, Zhuo’er might be in danger.”
Shen Qing thought about it carefully and asked, “Apart from Third Miss, is there anything else in the Bai Clan that can contend against Concubine Lin?”
Nanny He replied, “If Second Young Master was here, he would definitely not let Old Madame suffer like this. However, Second Young Master and Second Young Master went to the Longevity aphrodisiac field to discuss business a few days ago.”
Madam Zou felt a wave of regret. Bai Gongyuan was not a worthwhile person. Now that he was sent to Shouchun, it was estimated that he would not come back until he had eaten up all the food there.
If she didn’t think too much and honestly handed over the medicinal field to Bai Junzhuo, how could she end up in such a sorry state? It was only at this time that she realized that the person closest to her in the Bai Clan was actually her most estranged little granddaughter.
Shen Qing said, “Old Lady, don’t worry. Since that person has locked you up here, I don’t think it will harm you for a while. I’ll go rescue Miss Bai first, and then discuss with her some countermeasures to save you.”
“Thank you, Young Master!” Madam Zou nodded in his direction.
As he spoke, Shen Qing had already flashed out.
Finding someone in the Bai Clan’s mansion wasn’t simple either. Shen Qing searched for half an hour and couldn’t find Bai Junzhuo. He wanted to directly find Lin Bailian and cut off her hand and foot to force her to ask where she was, but he couldn’t find Lin Bailian.
Shen Qing found a secluded place to cut off a person and put a knife on his neck. “Do you know where Concubine Lin locked Miss Bai up?”
The servant’s legs trembled like chaff as he shook his head repeatedly and said, “I don’t know, I don’t know …”
“Die if you don’t know!” As he spoke, Shen Qing’s saber pressed down on his neck.
Only then did the servant change his tone and said to him, “Third Miss was taken away by the Mystic Maiden. I really don’t know where she took her …”
“Where is Lin Bailian?”
“I went out with the Profound Maiden.”
Previously, Mo Ying had investigated this Profound Maiden and knew that other than the Bai Manor, the Profound Maiden Temple outside the city was where she could stay recently. Shen Qing knocked out the servant with a palm strike and rushed towards the Profound Maiden Temple.
In Bai Junzhuo’s courtyard, Mei Fang went back to find someone to pick up her arm and immediately brought a group of people over. Without seeing Shen Qing around, she ordered, “Half of them carry things for me and smash things. The other half of them beat the people in this courtyard fiercely!”
Xingzi had expected that she would not let them off so easily. She had secretly sent Caifeng to the medicine hall just now to tell Lizi everything about this place and ask Lizi to bring people back.
The Medicine Hall is all Miss’s people. They will definitely come to help Miss. Right now, she only needs to guard this courtyard properly for Miss.
She also turned around and said, “We have followed Miss for so long. Even if we follow Auntie Lin in the future, Auntie Lin will definitely not treat us well. Why don’t you help Miss guard the courtyard and be loyal to Miss Lin. When Miss Lin returns, she will definitely not treat us wrongly!”
“You damn girl, are you still looking forward to your young miss coming back? What a joke. Let me tell you, she’s dead for sure!” Mei Fang pointed at Xingzi’s nose and said loudly.
Xingzi slapped Mei Fang in the face and kicked her again. Mei Fang was furious and wanted to beat her up.
Suddenly, two people rushed out of the kitchen, one holding a pot and the other holding a shovel, all of them smashing onto Mei Fang’s head.
These two people were the new cook and the old cook in the courtyard. Seeing that the two of them had made their move, the door-keeper picked up the stone at the door, the uncle swept the floor picked up the broom, and the maids took needles and scissors and joined the battle.
In Bai Junzhuo’s room, Ah Qing quietly pushed open the door and looked at the scene outside. Then, she hurriedly closed the door and curled her lips into tears.
The more he thought about the chaos his family had gone through the other day, the more frightened he became.
After crying for a while, he calmed down and wanted to find a cabinet to hide. When someone came to save him, he turned around and bumped into the person standing behind him.
That person suddenly said, “You little brat, you’re actually not dead yet.
