Chapter 237 She Wants to Compensate Me

Fan Mingzhu woke up after acupuncture, feeling dazed. After the pain subsided, she ate something.

"Has the antidote not been made yet?" Fan Mingzhu asked Mo Yunzhu.

"It should be soon, just hold on a little longer. Does it hurt now?"

Fan Mingzhu shook her head and said, "As long as you keep using acupuncture to suppress it, I won't feel any pain, but when you're not around, I'll feel a lot of pain when I wake up."

As she spoke, tears began to fall. She had never thought that after coming to Qingyun happily, she would encounter such a thing.

"This poison is indeed very strong, but don't worry, I will live here until the antidote is found."

"What's wrong with your shoulder?" Fan Mingzhu looked at the white cloth strap wrapped around her neck. One of her shoulders looked awkward.

"I went out last night and was stabbed. My shoulder was injured, but it's not serious." Mo Yunzhu explained.

Fan Mingzhu panicked and said, "How could this happen? You, you better not go out. If you go out, I, I will die of pain. Before the antidote is available, you must not go out again. I will let my brother give you money."

Mo Yunzhu nodded and said, "I'm injured now and can't go out. Master Ouyang has already sent a lot of people to guard us. It's safe here."

"That's good. Where's my brother? Why doesn't he come to see me?" Fan Mingzhu looked outside the door.

"Your brother is busy with business. If you're bored, I'll ask Ouyang Lan to come and keep you company. However, acupuncture can only relieve pain for a limited time, so you still have to go to sleep."

Fan Mingzhu nodded, and Mo Yunzhu asked someone to call Ouyang Lan over. Ouyang Lan talked to Fan Mingzhu while Mo Yunzhu lay down next door to rest.

At night, Long Yi returned to Prince Lan's Mansion and said to Jun Huo Lan: "Prince, Zhuo Hongli sent an old man to secretly protect the princess."

"Zhuo Hongli brought four old guys with him. Normally, we only see Uncle Zhou. The other three are secretly helping him. This guy has too many secrets. Let Long Er and the others keep a close eye on him."

Long Yi agreed, nodded and left. Jun Huolan paced in the room, thinking about things in his mind.

In the Moyun Building of Wanyao Pavilion, the elderly Uncle Sun suddenly appeared in the house.

"Grandson, you're back." When Zhuo Hongli saw Grandson, one of his four most trusted confidants, he immediately sat up from the bed.

The people he trusts most are his four closest confidants, all of whom are older than him and have been in the martial arts world for a long time. Thirty years ago, they were all powerful martial arts masters.

Uncle Zhou, Uncle Zhao, Uncle Qian and Uncle Sun.

"Grandpa, the moon has just passed its full phase. How are you?" Uncle Sun had a thin face but looked very capable.

"This time, thanks to Mo Yunzhu, I feel much better than before." Zhuo Hongli felt much better when he thought that the pain this time was half less than before.

Even if it was bought with 12,000 taels of gold, he still felt it was worth it.

"Master, I have found out that this Mo Yunzhu is indeed the daughter of Princess Kun and Xiao Feng. I found an old maid who used to serve Madam Mo Tiancheng at the border. When the Mo family moved back to the capital, she did not come back with them. She has already started a family there. She is very sure that Madam Mo's own child was miscarried when he was six or seven months old. Later, she didn't know where the child came from. Madam Mo said that she was an orphan she brought back from outside, but she wanted to raise her as her own child."

Zhuo Hongli immediately clenched his fists. Thinking of Mo Yunzhu's face that was about 50% similar to Princess Kun, he began to tremble all over.

Her daughter! Of course he liked her.

But she is Xiao Feng's daughter, and he hates her!

His biggest regret back then was that he was not able to kill Xiao Feng with his own hands!

Anyone who steals his woman should be killed to pieces!

Adulterers and adulteresses deserve to be put to death!

"It is indeed her child." Zhuo Hongli forced himself to calm down, his eyes filled with darkness.

"Master, what do you want to do? Kill her?" Uncle Sun asked with a frown.

Zhuo Hongli shuddered and said immediately: "I can't kill her. She is her only daughter. How can I bear it? And she has the pain-relief technique. I also need her. Now that we have confirmed that she is the little princess, we must find a way to let her return to Chen State."

Uncle Sun was puzzled and said, "But if people knew that she was a little princess, wouldn't that be even more dangerous? The royal family of Chen State would never allow her to live."

"Who said she would reveal her identity? I want her to stay with me forever."

Uncle Sun was stunned for a moment, then looked surprised and exchanged a glance with Uncle Zhou.

"Master, can't you let go of Princess Kun?" Uncle Sun looked at Zhuo Hongli worriedly.

Zhuo Hongli's old face instantly turned ugly, and he clenched his fists again and said, "What nonsense! I have seen through that bitch a long time ago! But she left me in the end, so I want her daughter to stay with me forever! She owes me this!"

Uncle Sun and Uncle Zhou were trembling inwardly. It was obvious that Zhuo Hongli was at the same point as before, filled with hatred but unable to vent it.

In the end, he killed his most beloved woman with his own hands, but he soon regretted it and tortured himself like a madman every day.

It was not until he confirmed that Xiao Feng was dead and Princess Kun's newborn daughter was also dead that he slowly calmed down.

However, since then, Princess Kun was rarely mentioned in front of him.

But they never expected that he would never get married again. Even if he had a woman, it was just a casual affair without any feelings, let alone having children.

It is conceivable how unforgettable Princess Kun is to him.

Zhuo Hongli seemed to feel a little excited. He looked at Uncle Zhou and Uncle Sun, then coughed a few times and said, "Old Sun, go and have a rest first. We'll talk later. Thank you for your hard work."

"Master, please don't say that. I'll leave first." Uncle Sun clasped his fists, bowed, and left.

Zhuo Hongli lay on the bed, his old face uncertain, his mind constantly recalling what happened in the past, and in the end only Mo Yunzhu's playful smiling face remained.

"Kunlin, is Mo Yunzhu your gift to compensate me?" Zhuo Hongli murmured, "What should I do with her?"

Mo Yunzhu didn't know that Zhuo Hongli had already confirmed her true identity. She slept very well in Ouyang Mansion. After all, she was injured and lost blood, so she had a good sleep all night.

But after noon on the next day, an imperial decree came from the palace, summoning her to enter the palace, causing Mo Yunzhu to twitch the corners of her mouth helplessly.

I'm afraid this old emperor is lustful again.

Borrowing the study room of Master Ouyang, she drew a picture of lotus and then took a carriage to the palace.

She met Lan Yan at the palace gate. It turned out that she was waiting for her. The two of them entered the palace together.

"Why does the emperor want to see me?" Mo Yunzhu asked Lan Yan.

"I don't know either, but today your father mentioned your marriage to Prince Lan, and the emperor immediately looked unhappy. You should be careful later."
