"This is not something I should consider. The Emperor only wants the Ghost Doctor's life, and he specifically wants to keep the little servant who serves him.
Let that little servant boy control Prince Xuan’s illness.”
"He's just a child, what does he know?" Chang'an was surprised. She didn't expect the emperor to kill the ghost doctor. Could it be that the ghost doctor drugged him yesterday?
"This is my task. I hope Prince Hyun and Princess Hyun will be flexible."
"Compromise?" Bei Mingxuan sneered, "Why not? I've already compromised to the point where my mother died right before my eyes."
The two guards glanced at each other, both showing an uneasy expression. "Princess Xuan, please ask Mr. Ghost Doctor to come over."
"Go find it yourselves." Chang'an was unhappy, "This is a sin."
They both knelt down and said, "Please, Your Majesty, and Your Majesty, help us. We are not sure we can kill the Ghost Doctor, so we can only ask Your Majesty to come forward and catch the Ghost Doctor off guard when he is not paying attention."
"If you don't want to die, does that mean others must die?" Chang'an said coldly, not hiding his disgust at all.
The two guards knew that their request was excessive, especially since the Ghost Doctor was the only one who could help Bei Mingxuan recover. "It's your subordinates who have caused trouble for the princess."
Although they said this, the two of them had no intention of letting Chang'an go.
Bei Mingxuan, who had been silent the whole time, suddenly walked out of the inner room and said, "Someone come here!"
Fu Lin pushed the door open and walked in, "Your Majesty."
Bei Mingxuan ordered, "Go and call the ghost doctor. Tell him that my mother is not feeling well and that I want him to come over and take a look. Tell him to stop following the little servants around her. My mother doesn't like crowds."
"yes."
The people in the inner room heard it clearly. The two guards looked at each other, feeling guilty when they saw Bei Mingxuan walk in again.
They all knelt down at the same time, "Thank you, Prince Xuan, for your support."
"I know you are just following orders." Bei Mingxuan said with a cold face, "But! You are overacting.
The Emperor's personal guards, Flying Eagle and White Tiger, actually have so much nonsense after killing someone."
The two were stunned. They were surprised how Bei Mingxuan knew their true identity?
Moreover, their request for Chang'an to send the ghost doctor was also instructed by the emperor.
Although they don't understand why, they don't need to know why. They just need to do what their master tells them to do.
Eunuch De frowned, thought for a moment, and whispered, "Yesterday, when I was talking to the Emperor, I mentioned the ghost doctor and told him that he seemed to have the ability to bring the dead back to life... Could it be true?"
As Eunuch De spoke, his eyes fell on Concubine Tong who was already dead on the bed. He immediately understood why the emperor was determined to kill the ghost doctor. Was he worried that the ghost doctor would save Concubine Tong?
When this thought came to his mind, Eunuch De immediately rejected it.
He thought of the time when the emperor heard that the ghost doctor could bring the dead back to life, and how greedy his eyes were. He even asked if the ghost doctor could develop an elixir of immortality or a pill of longevity.
Therefore, the emperor would definitely not order the killing of the ghost doctor.
Eunuch De glanced at the two guards without saying a word, and put all his doubts deep in his heart.
He thought to himself, let the so-called 'ghost doctor' die, he is not a real ghost doctor anyway. He wanted to see who the real master behind these two people was?
Who on earth has such great ability to arrange people in the emperor's personal guard, and these two people are both masters of the personal guard.
What are you thinking about?
Eunuch De suddenly heard Chang'an's voice, and looked at Chang'an again, only to see her looking at the body of Concubine Tong on the couch with tears in her eyes.
Eunuch De's inner strength wasn't enough to transmit his voice. He sighed deeply, "Princess Xuan, please stop crying. The Ghost Doctor is coming soon. Don't let him notice anything."
As he said this, he walked forward to help Chang'an up. From a position where the two men couldn't see, he used the unique method of Fusheng Sect to tell Chang'an that there was something wrong with these two people.
At the same time, Bei Mingxuan sent a message to Changan: "These two people have been puppeted."
Chang'an was startled and turned to look at Bei Mingxuan. Just when she was about to raise her doubts.
Bei Mingxuan's voice continued to reach Chang'an's ears. [Dongdao, puppetry is divided into three levels. The common puppetry is the primary level. These two should be at the second level, or somewhere between the second and third. If they wait until the third level, I won't be able to detect them.]
Chang'an was surprised. She had only seen Dongdao's puppetry in books, and it was a special kind of evil magic.
She had never imagined that someone would use this kind of evil magic on people from Shuzhou, and that these two people were members of the Emperor's personal guard. This meant...
Chang'an didn't dare to think any further. [Are you sure these two people aren't imposters, but are simply being manipulated by puppetry?]
[Definitely not an imposter.] Bei Mingxuan confirmed.
"Your Highness." Fu Lin reported from outside the door, "Mr. Ghost Doctor, please come."
Push the door open and walk in.
Bei Mingxuan narrowed his eyes slightly. Only a thin man came in. He understood that the real ghost doctor also planned to use this man as his scapegoat.
Although he didn't understand why, at least he had done his best. When Fu Lin left, he had already sent a message to ask Fu Lin to tell the little servant that someone here wanted to kill the ghost doctor.
In this case, it all depends on the luck of this thin man.
At this time, the thin man did not make any sound and walked directly to Concubine Tong's bed. Su Xi, who was standing beside him, put a handkerchief on Concubine Tong's wrist.
The thin man took Concubine Tong's pulse without any precautions.
As soon as his hand touched the brocade handkerchief, a sword pierced his body from behind. He didn't say a word, but his eyes clearly asked, why?
The person is dead.
The two guards glanced at Bei Mingxuan and said, "Your Highness, we take our leave."
The two men left immediately, seemingly forgetting that Eunuch De was traveling with them.
At this moment, Eunuch De was eager to stay away from these two people.
Soon, someone disposed of the thin man's body.
"Fu Lin," Bei Mingxuan instructed, "go prepare the finest golden nanmu coffin. Fu Cheng, prepare the mourning hall. Eunuch De, please inform the Emperor that Bei Mingxuan's mother died in an accident while testing medicine."
Fu Lin, Fu Cheng, "Yes, I'll do it right away."
"I will definitely tell the emperor what the prince said." Eunuch De wiped away his tears.
When everyone leaves.
Bei Mingxuan walked to Chang'an, trying his best to endure.
"Bei Mingxuan." Chang An reached out and stroked Bei Mingxuan's face. She said softly, "If you want to cry, I'll accompany you."
"It's good that you're here." Bei Mingxuan hugged Chang'an in his arms, "Chang'an..."
