Chapter 46 Scary



When Ping'er walked into the inner hall, she saw Doctor Chen frowning as he took the second princess' pulse.

"Ping'er pays respects to the Second Princess!"

"No need to be polite." Zong Zheng Xiaoting smiled at Ping'er weakly, but this smile looked pale, weak and exhausted to Ping'er.

"Is the Second Princess's injury better? Is this...this poison okay?" Ping'er looked at Doctor Chen with a worried look on her face. The Second Princess was a treasured treasure to the Empress and Consort Rou. If there was anything wrong with her, the Empress and Consort Rou would be worried.

"The princess's wound will heal after a while of treatment, but the poison cannot be cured in a short time."

"The princess' face?" Ping'er walked closer and saw red spots on Zongzheng Xiaoting's face, while Qingqing's face was also red and swollen.

Although Doctor Chen did not understand what the princess and her servant were up to, they still stood together and said without hesitation: "The red spots on the princess' face are a symptom of the spread of the poison after the poisoning. Qingqing, I'm afraid, was also poisoned like the princess, but her condition is much milder than the princess'. Maybe she tasted the food for the princess or the princess gave her some reward, and she accidentally got the poison."

He brags without thinking, and he still speaks in a very conscientious manner. Zong Zheng Xiaoting pursed his lips and smiled secretly, looking at the gentlemanly face of Chen Taiyi, who was talking big without blushing or beating his heart. Zong Zheng Xiaoting lowered his head, his eyelashes moved, hiding his smile.

"Ping'er, your mother wants you to come, is there something wrong?" Zong Zheng Xiaoting suppressed his smile and asked, looking up.

"Yes! Second Princess, the Queen said that the envoys from Yunguang Kingdom and Tianxi Kingdom have already entered the palace. Princess, please make preparations for the state banquet tonight."

"Is it the envoy who came to ask for a marriage?" Zong Zheng Xiaoting asked softly.

"Second Princess, the Empress said that everything is still unknown, so please rest assured. As for Concubine Lixian, she has been executed, so you can rest assured. We can only take one step at a time to deal with the mess left behind by Concubine Lixian." Ping'er spoke anxiously to comfort Zongzheng Xiaoting, remembering in her heart what the imperial physician had said, that the princess must not worry too much, for fear that it would not be beneficial to her condition.

Zong Zheng Xiaoting saw Ping'er hurriedly comforting him, still with a faint smile on his face, "Is this palace the only one present tonight?"

"Not only that, all the royal relatives, princesses, the third princess and the fourth princess will also be present."

"Okay, I understand."

"Then I will go back and report first." Ping'er saluted, and when Zong Zheng Xiaoting nodded, she slowly retreated.

Not long after Ping'er left, Zongzheng Xiaoting received the silver that the emperor had promised to "lend" to him.

Looking at the room full of gold, silver and jewelry, Zong Zheng Xiaoting could not hide the joy in his eyes and brows.

"Haha, not bad, they are all top quality and can be sold for a lot of money." Zong Zheng Xiaoting was overjoyed and didn't care at all about Doctor Chen who was standing there stunned.

Doctor Chen looked at Zong Zheng Xiaoting's behavior with deep disbelief in his eyes.

In the harem, no matter how noble their status, they would be delighted by the emperor's gift. But why is the second princess so happy? It seems that it is not because she is happy about the emperor's gift, but because of her natural love for gold, silver and jewelry.

"Cough cough..." In response to Zongzheng Xiaoting's reckless laughter, Doctor Chen couldn't help but fake cough a few times to secretly remind him of his existence.

However, Zong Zheng Xiaoting, who had already considered Doctor Chen to be on the same boat, was not aware of it at all. She only said to Doctor Chen, "Doctor Chen, how much can these things be sold for?"

sell!

Doctor Chen's eyes widened again and he kept blinking. Did he hear it right?!

There are actually people who want to sell the king's reward.

"Princess, please stop joking with me."

"Are you kidding? What kind of joke is that? This princess is very serious." Zong Zheng Xiaoting glanced at Doctor Chen, "Think about it, this princess is planning to escape from marriage, and no one knows what the situation is like outside, but one thing is absolute."

Zong Zheng Xiaoting raised his head and paused.

Doctor Chen could only pretend to be calm and said, "Please tell me clearly, Princess."

"Money makes the world go round! I gave up all my wealth and luxury to help you. From now on, I can no longer see my mother and have no connection with the royal family. Even if my relatives pass away, I can no longer burn incense for them. If even life is so hard, how can I be worthy of them?" Zong Zheng Xiaoting became more and more excited as he spoke, and he didn't forget to squeeze out tears. "It's easy for me to do this, princess?"

"This..." Doctor Chen was a little at a loss. The princess's words made him understand how difficult it was for the princess to fulfill her wish.

"I will sacrifice my life for the service." Doctor Chen knelt down hastily, which was originally an act to show his loyalty, but was deliberately misinterpreted by Zong Zheng Xiaoting.

"Okay, okay! I know that Doctor Chen is sincere. Take these, sell them for banknotes, and give them to me tomorrow. I'll have to trouble you, Doctor Chen, to make more trips these days." Zong Zheng Xiaoting grabbed a handful of jewelry, stuffed them into a cloth bag, and put it into Doctor Chen's hands.

"Princess, this!"

"Yes, I know you are very anxious and want to bring more, but for your safety, I will just sell these first." Zong Zheng Xiaoting patted Doctor Chen on the shoulder with a friendly expression, "Doctor Chen, please go down first. I also have to prepare for the banquet tonight."

Seeing that Doctor Chen's face turned pale and blue, Qingqing couldn't help but turn her face away and smiled secretly.

The princess clearly understood what Doctor Chen meant, but poor Doctor Chen was taken advantage of by the second princess and deceived by her.

"Yes!" Doctor Chen held the cloth bag tightly. No matter how stupid he was, he knew that the princess did it on purpose. However, the princess's concerns were not unreasonable, so it was no wonder.

Originally, I was surprised that this high and mighty princess would be as stingy about money as the common people, like a money slave. But now that I think about it, it is right, it is precisely because the princess has always been a person who has everything provided for her, naturally, when she agreed to fulfill her, she would consider everything in the future. If it were someone else, they might not think so far ahead, but with the second princess's intelligence, she quickly thought about having no worries about food and clothing in the future, which is normal.

Qingqing couldn't help but burst out laughing after watching Doctor Chen leave.

"Princess, did you see the look on Doctor Chen's face just now? He was almost terrified."

“Shouldn’t you be frightened?” Zongzheng Xiaoting’s eyebrows moved slightly, and he reluctantly pulled his hand away from the gift. He touched the silver and sighed helplessly, “It’s a pity that we are going to escape and hide. Carrying these silver marks unique to the royal family of Luoshan will easily expose our whereabouts. What a pity, what a pity!”

"Princess, now you should be more restrained. Don't you still want me to play the role of someone who loves money so much?" Qingqing pulled down Zongzheng Xiaoting's hand and reminded her hurriedly.

"Uh...habit, habit." Zong Zheng Xiaoting smiled shyly. "Let's go and scare the envoy from Tianxi Country. No matter what their purpose is, I don't believe that they would want me to go there. I will make them live in a deep shadow and have nightmares every day."

Qingqing's eyes were also aroused by the desire to play a prank. As long as she thought about the ill intentions of the other party, she felt that the princess's idea was extremely good. Moreover, the princess and Doctor Chen's target was only Yunguang Country, so it seemed that it was not a bad idea to attract the attention of the envoy of Tianxi Country.

So, the master and servant put on makeup again, and with their deliberately made-up faces, they headed towards the place where the envoys from the Tianxi Kingdom were resting.
