Chapter 298: Cutting the Weeds at the Root

Chen Tianqi's facial expression slowly relaxed and he seemed to be in better spirits. He looked at Mo Yunzhu again.

"Acupuncture takes half an hour before it can be removed. It may last for a while without pain, but it is hard to say how long it will last."

"I feel much better and the pain has been reduced a lot. Miss Mo's acupuncture skills are indeed superb." Chen Tianqi gained the confidence to live.

"It is Yunzhu's honor to share the worries of the Emperor. The Emperor, please take a rest. Yunzhu will take her leave." Mo Yunzhu smiled.

She knew that Chen Tianqi saw the similarities between her and Princess Kun, and estimated that he would ask questions after she left.

"Old Song, ask Eunuch Nian to arrange accommodation for Miss Mo and take good care of her." Chen Tianqi instructed.

Eunuch Song immediately agreed, took Mo Yunzhu out of the inner chamber, and then asked Eunuch Nian to take Mo Yunzhu downstairs to rest.

Mo Yunzhu followed Eunuch Nian to the palace next door. The structure inside was very complicated, but it was full of exquisite wood carvings, and there were many servants and guards coming and going.

When they saw Mo Yunzhu, everyone looked at her curiously, but Mo Yunzhu looked around with a smile on her face, as if she was strolling in a park.

"Miss Mo, you can live here for the time being. Master Zhuo will live in the house opposite. If you need anything, just tell the servants. Little Li, come here." Eunuch Nian called a servant to Mo Yunzhu.

Although he is called Little Leo, you can tell he is not young anymore, at least around 30 years old.

"Little Li, this is Miss Mo, the distinguished guest of the Emperor. You take a few people with you to serve her well and follow Miss Mo's instructions."

"Eunuch Li, thank you for your help." Mo Yunzhu smiled at Little Li.

Little Li immediately said in a flattering manner, "Miss Mo, you are too kind to me. Just tell me what you want to do."

"Okay, thank you, Eunuch Li." After saying this, Mo Yunzhu thanked Eunuch Nian again, and then followed Eunuch Li into her resting place.

In the emperor's bedroom, Zhuo Hongli and Eunuch Song were both sitting on chairs in front of the dragon bed, and the door outside was also closed.

"Ali, don't you think this Mo Yunzhu looks like someone?" Chen Tianqi looked at Zhuo Hongli.

Eunuch Song also said immediately: "Like Princess Kun."

Chen Tianqi looked at Zhuo Hongli with a gleam in his old eyes.

Zhuo Hongli sighed and said, "I've noticed that she looks like Princess Kun, but I'm still investigating whether she is the same."

Zhuo Hongli didn't dare to put Mo Yunzhu in danger all of a sudden.

"It must be. This face and demeanor are very similar to Kunlin. When the consort Xiao Feng ran away with the newborn princess in his arms, the people who chased him came back and said that the consort was dead and the princess disappeared. Later, they said that the princess was also dead. At that time, I felt something was wrong.

It seems that the little princess is not dead at all, and she is still this big. Ali, do you know that once she knows how her parents died, do you think she will still help me with treatment?"

"Then don't let her know." Zhuo Hongli said, "Her current parents love her very much, and she won't think that she is not their biological daughter."

Zhuo Hongli also didn't want Chen Tianqi to know that Mo Yunzhu actually suspected that she was the little princess.

After all, given Chen Tianqi's personality, he will definitely weed out the roots.

"In fact, this Miss Mo is a bit similar to the late emperor." Eunuch Song said suddenly.

Zhuo Hong was stunned, and Chen Tianqi was also stunned. Then he sneered and said, "The little princess and I are also related by blood."

"Your Majesty, don't think about these things for now. No matter if she is or not, she doesn't know anyway. Just let her give you some pain relief first. Besides, she also helps me with pain relief every month and a half." Zhuo Hongli gave a wry smile.

Eunuch Song said softly, "Her acupuncture skills are indeed amazing. I am also proficient in acupuncture points, but I found that she knows much more than I do, and I thought the order of needle insertion was wrong."

"Do you remember the order in which she stitched?"

Zhuo Hong immediately said, "She uses a different order of needlework every time."

"Then I will observe it again next time." said Eunuch Song.

"If she is Kunlin's daughter, she must not be allowed to stay." Chen Tianqi's eyes were sinister, "I don't want to cause any trouble for Nan'er."

Nan'er is Chen Nan, the new emperor of the Chen Kingdom.

Zhuo Hongli frowned and said, "Your Majesty, even if she is really the little princess, what can she do with her current ability? But you and I both need her to help us relieve the pain."

Chen Tianqi glanced at Zhuo Hongli and said, "Ah Li, I understand your feelings for Kunlin back then, but Kunlin betrayed you, and you ended up killing her. Do you still want to keep her daughter? Once she knows the truth, how do you think she will treat you?"

Zhuo Hongli immediately smiled bitterly and said, "Your Majesty, what I mean is that there is no need to be too nervous now. She knows nothing now."

Zhuo Hongli thought that he couldn't let Mo Yunzhu come to ask Chen Tianqi, otherwise once Chen Tianqi knew that she already knew his identity, he would probably uproot her immediately.

Chen Tianqi would risk his life for the Chen Kingdom, but Zhuo Hongli didn't want to die yet, so he naturally couldn't let Mo Yunzhu fall into danger.

Eunuch Song also said quietly: "Your Majesty, no matter whether she is a little princess or not, she is still needed now. Besides, even if she is, so what? Just imprison her."

Chen Tianqi's eyes flashed, and after a moment of silence, he said, "Yes, I was just too shocked. I thought my eyes were blurry just now. Ali, you should investigate this matter and make sure you find out the truth. By the way, do you know the whereabouts of Chen Yunci?"

Zhuo Hongli's eyes were filled with sorrow. Chen Yunci was Zhuo Yu, who had always been under his nose, but he had never let Chen Tianqi know. This was a trump card in his hand.

"People from the five countries are tracking down the whereabouts of the young prince, but there has been no news for so many years. I guess he is no longer alive. Even if he is, they probably don't know his identity. Your Majesty, don't worry so much. The most important thing is to rest and take care of your health." Zhuo Hongli said softly.

"Alas, both of you know that Chen Yunci is a thorn in my heart. As long as I don't find him, I will feel uneasy, fearing that he will come back one day to seek revenge."

Eunuch Song immediately comforted him, "Your Majesty, it has been so many years, the imperial power has long been consolidated, and the new emperor is also very good. Even if the young prince comes back, so what? He is no longer a match for you, so there is no need to worry."

"Don't think like that. We should always be prepared for danger. I have worked so hard to build this empire, and I cannot let anyone snatch it back. I will not feel at ease until the Chen Tianlu lineage is completely wiped out." A fierce light flashed in Chen Tianqi's eyes.

"My people will continue to search for Chen Yunci, please rest assured, Your Majesty." Zhuo Hongli thought to himself that it was fortunate that Zhuo Yu's appearance inherited the advantages of Chen Tianlu and his wife, and was unique, otherwise it would be easy to be discovered that he was a cat. However, Zhuo Yu did not meet many royal family members.

"Your Majesty, it's time. I will help you remove the needle." Eunuch Song saw that a quarter of an hour had passed and began to remove the needle.

Chen Tianqi immediately became nervous, fearing that the sore and powerless feeling would come back once the needle was pulled out.
