What is the experience of transmigrating into a cannon fodder charact...

Chapter 99 No Way to Save It

"Possessed by evil spirits, Taoist priest, casting spells..." Yin Qingyi repeated these three words over and over.

The old women, including Qi Mama, were also frowning, just like Yin Qingyi, wondering what the Fujin (princess) was planning to do.

"Granny, I've thought of a possibility!" Yin Qingyi suddenly had a flash of inspiration and thought of a possibility.

"What?" Granny Qi looked at Yin Qingyi.

"The eldest prince's possession is a lie, the Taoist priest is a fake, the spell was just to find what caused the eldest prince's possession! But the eldest prince is not possessed at all, so this is just a scheme devised by the Fujin to get rid of me, and I am the culprit they say is the eldest prince's possession!" Yin Qingyi never expected that the Fujin would go so far as to make a decisive move. In the year she had been in the household, the Fujin had only attacked her twice: the first time was to prevent her from ever having children, the second time was to put her into a permanent sleep, and the third time was this time, she actually wanted to kill her!

"How dare the Princess Consort do such a vicious thing!" Granny Naqi was shocked by Yin Qingyi's words, but after thinking about the method in her mind, she realized that this method was indeed the most deadly.

"So, Granny, how do we break this deadlock?" Yin Qingyi looked at Granny Naqi.

"Don't worry, Your Highness, leave this to this old servant. Now that we know what the Princess Consort is planning, everything will be much easier." Granny Naqi patted Yin Qingyi's hand. To be honest, this matter was not easy to handle, but she would absolutely not let the Princess Consort succeed.

"Qiuju, go to the front yard and find Su Xiaobao. Ask him to invite Physician Li and tell him I'm feeling a bit unwell." Although Yin Qingyi felt a little relieved after hearing what Granny Qi said, she was still unsure. She thought of her brother, hoping he could help her out there.

"Yes." Qiuju looked at her mistress, whose face was rosy, and silently nodded before leaving.

“My lady, didn’t I tell you not to get too close to Physician Li?” Granny Naqi looked at Yin Qingyi disapprovingly.

"Granny, this matter concerns my life. Physician Li might be able to help me outside. You don't want the Princess Consort to succeed, do you?" Yin Qingyi knew that Granny Qi meant well, but this matter could be fatal if not handled properly.

"Alas~ This old servant is also worried, but what Master said makes sense. After all, it is more convenient for Physician Li to act outside than for us people in the inner quarters." Of course, Granny Qi did not want the Fujin to succeed. She was just worried, but as Yin Qingyi said, it was indeed much more convenient for Physician Li to act outside.

Thinking this way, Granny Qi agreed. She wondered, what exactly is the relationship between the master and this Physician Li? Why does the master trust Physician Li so much? Could Physician Li be a relative of the master?

Qiuju has already arrived at the front yard. Everyone in the front yard knows that Qiuju is Yin Qingyi's maid, so naturally they will not stop her. However, they will still ask her what she is here for.

"Who is Miss Qiuju looking for in the front yard?" the guard at the gate asked.

"I'm looking for Eunuch Su. My concubine is feeling unwell. Is Eunuch Su here?" Qiu Ju feigned an anxious expression.

"Yes, yes, he's guarding the door of the master's study. Go find him quickly, don't delay." The guard immediately let them through when he heard that it was the concubine who had something to do, urging them on.

Qiuju quickly thanked them and ran towards the study. By the time she arrived at the study, she was panting slightly.

"Qiuju? What brings you here? You're all sweaty. Is something wrong? Could it be—that something happened to the concubine? Tell me quickly!" Su Xiaobao was initially about to get angry at the hurried footsteps, thinking how rude they were in broad daylight. But when he saw it was Qiuju, he immediately composed himself, reached out to support her, and felt a pang of anxiety in his heart as he watched her rush about. He hoped she wouldn't say that something had happened to the concubine!

"Yes, yes, Master, Master is feeling a little unwell. He asked me to tell you to go and invite Physician Li over." Qiu Ju finished speaking breathlessly.

"Oh dear, my dear aunt, couldn't you have let Xiao Jinzi speak? That boy runs so fast! Alright, enough said, I'll go and fetch Physician Li for the Consort right now! But I don't know if Physician Li is at home or in the palace today, oh dear, what should I do?" Su Xiaobao was so worried, but he didn't stop walking, praying all the way that Physician Li was at home today! If he was in the palace, he, a mere eunuch of the Prince's Mansion, certainly didn't have the ability to bring Physician Li back from the palace.

Qiu Ju stood at the door watching Su Xiaobao run away, muttering to himself. She slowly calmed her breathing and only turned to leave after she had calmed down.

"Has Miss Qiuju seen Eunuch Su Xiaobao?" The guard at the gate where Qiuju was standing asked with concern.

"Yes, we found it. Eunuch Su has already gone to fetch the imperial physician." Qiu Ju nodded.

"That's good. Miss Qiuju, is the concubine alright?" the guard asked curiously.

"We'll have to wait for the imperial physician to examine her to know. I'll head back now; the concubine needs help the most right now." Qiuju didn't want to say too much. She didn't know what her mistress was planning, and the more she said, the more mistakes she would make. She should just go back.

"Yes, yes, Miss Qiuju, please go back quickly." The guard nodded repeatedly.

After Qiuju returned to Luoxuexuan, she went to the front yard and found out that everyone in the back yard already knew what had happened.

"Li Zhongde, you made the move?" Li immediately thought of the fact that she had asked Li Zhongde to do it.

"No, but don't worry, Princess, this servant has already planned it out. We'll make sure the concubine falls for it when we pay our respects in a couple of days." Li Zhongde had been thinking for several days and finally came up with a plan that might not cost him his head. He quickly made the arrangements. These past few days, his mind had been focused on this matter, so he hadn't paid much attention to the rumors in the inner quarters. He still didn't know that the princess was going to exorcise the evil spirit for the eldest prince. After all, this matter was only being spread by a few people, and the princess herself hadn't made any announcements yet.

"Oh? Then this princess will wait and see." Seeing this, Madam Li smiled with exceptional charm. She was about to ruin Madam Yin's face, how could she not be happy?

Main courtyard

"Granny, why is Madam Yin's maid in the front courtyard? Did she discover what we were doing?" The Fujin frowned as she looked at Granny Li.

"It shouldn't be, Madam, please rest assured. This old servant has already made arrangements for this matter. Even if the other Madam finds out, there will be absolutely no way to change it." Granny Li was not flustered at all; she was certain that there would be no mistakes in this matter.

"What exactly are the arrangements, Granny? Tell me so I can have some idea of ​​what's going on." The Fujin was still uneasy, staring at Granny Li, insisting that she reveal the plan. If Granny Li hadn't been her wet nurse, who had treated her like her own daughter since childhood, she would have no family left. She would absolutely not have let Granny Li do this.
