C323 Fetal Teachings
Bai Ming was trimming the flowers in the room, fiddling with them from time to time to see if they were suitable.
Hearing the commotion at the door, his hands kept moving. "Found it, did you kill it?"
"This subordinate is useless." The man lowered his head, his bamboo hat hanging down.
Bai Ming paused for a moment, then continued trimming. It was as if he did not have much hope from the start. "How many people died?"
"Ten." The man answered the assassin who died.
"Very good, very good." He could tell Bai Ming was a little angry, and his hands moved faster. "Yuan Zhen and Miao Yingyu found it, but they didn't kill it. You also lost ten people. Ha, he is indeed a waste."
"Sect Leader..." The man became more ambitious, and his voice became louder.
"Bang."
This was the sound of Bai Ming putting down the scissors. Just as the man was about to speak, Bai Ming turned around and asked the man, "What is it?"
The man was afraid. Because Bai Ming was too powerful, he felt a little apologetic. He half-knelt on the ground. "Sect Leader, please punish me."
"Get lost." Bai Ming lifted up his white clothes and sat down domineeringly.
The man cupped his hands and bowed. "Yes." He lifted his foot and was about to leave.
"Didn't you hear that? This Sect Leader wants you to... 'get lost'." Bai Ming lightly touched his thin lips with his middle finger, a mocking expression on his face.
The man stopped in his tracks and clenched his fist, hiding it in his clothes. His sharp eyes looked at Bai Ming through the black veil, and there was only endless hatred in his eyes.
Bai Ming raised his head and raised his eyebrows. This was the last moment for the man.
The man slowly knelt down, his legs trembling slightly. This was not fear, this was humiliation. One day, I will return it to you!
As he thought of this, he laid on the floor and used his hand to force himself to roll out of the door. Every time he exerted force, the man's teeth would clench a bit.
Bai Ming only felt a little more comfortable when he saw his uncoordinated appearance.
The next day.
Miao Yingyu and Yuan Zhen woke up. Last night, that man stimulated the Gu worm in their bodies. That was why it was like that.
Now, Miao Yingyu was almost unable to control the Gu poison in their bodies. When it flared up, it would be heart-piercing pain, especially when it came to touching the sunlight. Wherever it touched, it would burn up, as if one could smell the smell of burnt flesh.
"Is Yingyu awake?"
Just as she was in a daze, she heard Mu Ruqing's voice and immediately replied, "Qing."
Mu Ruqing walked in and did not mention what happened last night. She only told Miao Yingyu that she would try her best. Everyone had a period of time in the past. Since it was sad, why must they dig it up?
After talking to her for an hour, Mu Ruqing let her have a good rest and went to see Yuan Zhen.
With this kind of torment, it was afternoon.
After coming back from last night, Yu Longchen went to the study in a muffled voice. He had a face full of smiles the whole time and did not say a word.
Mu Ruqing did not care about that. Her mind was not entirely on Yu Longchen.
However, she missed him a little now. Lingyue rested for two days and could already walk. She returned to Mu Ruqing's side to serve.
Seeing her dazed look, she could not help but tease, "Is the Princess thinking about the Royal Highness?"
"Yes." Mu Ruqing changed her posture, her hands were square on the table, her chin was on her arms.
"Then go and find His Royal Highness."
"If you don't want to go, why do you want to find him? I might as well talk to you here." Mu Ruqing immediately became happy and pulled Lingyue's hand, "Sing a song for my baby."
" Wait for Little Mistress to come out and sing it to him. " Lingyue's smile hung on her face and was somewhat helpless.
"This is called fetus teachings. Forget it, you won't understand even if I tell you." Mu Ruqing let go of her, "Bring my zither over. I want to play it for him. Once he comes out, he will play the zither. How awesome is that?"
" Does Princess think that Little Mistress will be able to play the zither after her entire life? People are not as big as that zither." Lingyue covered her mouth and laughed, but her voice was very loud.
"Stupid girl! Go quickly!" Mu Ruqing also could not hold back her laughter. It was better to smile now than to feel sad in her heart.
Mu Ruqing played the guqin in the pavilion very seriously.
The melodious music passed through the hard wall and flowed along the gentle wind. It was like the gentle spring sunshine that seeped into her heart.
Yu Longchen sat in front of the desk and frowned. He only felt more relaxed when he heard the ethereal music.
Why did he feel like he had lost something in his heart, but he just couldn't catch it.
"Your Royal Highness." When Changxu came back, it was a hot day, but he always wore the clothes of a high collar worker. Because there were burn scars on his body, and his neck would be exposed. If he did not cover himself, he was afraid that Lingyue would be afraid. He was also afraid that Lingyue would feel pain in her heart.
"Did you find out?" Yu Longchen raised his eyes.
Changxu shook his head and was a little discouraged. "No, there is no trace of it. I don't know where they are in the Imperial Capital."
"The Imperial Residence needs to strengthen their security." Yu Longchen did not blame him. How could that person be found so easily? "We still need to continue investigating this matter."
"Your Royal Highness, that servant girl from the courtyard in the morning came to request an audience. She said that Lateral Consort Yun was looking for death and wanted to see your Royal Highness." Changxu originally did not want to say it, but as long as he added something in, it would be...
Indeed, Yu Longchen had thought of something. Even he himself did not know what he was thinking.
"Yesterday the doctor said Lateral Consort Yun's fetal image was confirmed." Changxu lowered his head, but his eyes were looking at Yu Longchen's expression. " Does the prince really want to keep that child? If news of this spreads out... it will not be good for the Royal Highness's reputation. Furthermore, Lateral Consort Yun will also be executed."
Changxu did hope that Yun Xi would be executed, but if that was the case, the first person to be harmed would be Yu Longchen. Even if ten Yun Xi were to be used, it would not be enough to exchange for Yu Longchen's reputation and the reputation of the entire Imperial Residence.
Therefore, it would be better to settle this matter internally. Changxu would act as the 'instigator' of Yu Longchen.
Yu Longchen looked at Changxu with dissatisfaction and threatened him.
Changxu shrank his neck and was still very stubborn. "What I said is the truth. The longer this matter is delayed, the worse it will be for Your Highness and the entire King Chu's Mansion."
"What if she is pregnant with this king's child and accidentally has an abortion? In that case, no one would dare to doubt it, right?" Yu Longchen walked a few steps towards Changxu. Every step he took was accompanied by a piercing sound.
Changxu half knelt down, cupped his hands, and bowed respectfully. He lowered his head and said respectfully, "Can Your Highness really tolerate this kind of thing? Has Your Royal Highness ever thought about whether his love for Lateral Consort Yun is real or not? If it is true, then why does Your Highness involuntarily protect the Princess every time something happens to the Princess? And why was it that every time Lateral Consort Yun was beaten up by the Princess, the Royal Highness would never pursue the matter of the Princess? It's not that the Princess has a good reason for beating Lateral Consort Yun, but because the Royal Highness does not want to blame the Princess. "
" You have been talking a lot lately. " Yu Longchen held his hands behind his back.
"Even if His Royal Highness wants to kill me, I have to say it." Changxu raised his head and looked at Yu Longchen firmly. " What was the prince thinking when the princess fell from the stage? Does His Highness still remember the time when he jumped off the cliff with the Princess? "
Yu Longchen thought of the day when Mu Ruqing fell off the stage. It was a suffocating feeling. It could only be described with one sentence. That was, if Mu Ruqing died, he would not be able to live either.
"Your Royal Highness..." Changxu still wanted to say something.
However, Yu Longchen was unwilling to listen. It should be said that he was afraid to listen.
He walked around Changxu, who was kneeling on the ground, and left the study.
