Chapter 30: The Empress does not have good intentions part 2

After that, Long Xiao Yu ordered Gui Ying and Gui Mei to stay in the Nan He palace. He seemed busy and left without saying another word.

Seeing that everyone had left, concubine Li’s high spirited fighting aura returned. Then she turned to Mu Zi Ling and said warmly, “Qi Princess, earlier it was this concubine who forgot her manners. I wish that Qi Princess will not blame me.”

Although the Qi Princess didn’t look good in her eyes earlier, what she did and what she said completely changed the way concubine Li thought of her.

This Qi Princess was also a master who doesn’t like eating a lost. In addition, it was the Qi King who told her to cure Xiao Nan. She even dared go against the Empress Dowager. Concubine Li then decided that Mu Zi Ling wouldn’t have any bad intentions.

Moreover, the Qi Princess had kind heartedly cured her son. There was no need for her to make subjective guesses about the other’s intention.

“It is fine. Concubine Li was just worried about the Fifth Prince’s health. This Princess has never taken that to heart.” said Mu Zi Ling generously.

Living deep in the Royal Palace, you would not survive if you didn’t know how to make any schemes. This concubine Li was really calm. She fought when she had to, and she said what she had to.

Concubine Li smiled sweetly and asked worriedly, “It’s good that the Qi Princess doesn’t see me as an outsider. However, does Xiao Nan really have no problems now?”

She was still unable to digest the news a bit. Xiao Nan had had these headaches for many years now. Normally they would use medicine to control it.

Furthermore, when it was severe, even the medicine wouldn’t be any use for his headaches. Now that it was suddenly cured, she was still a bit in disbelief.

“Concubine Li, don't worry about anything. Third Sister in law is a god handed doctor. As long as she reaches out her hand, any dubious or hard to treat cases will all disappear.” said Long Xiao Ze exaggeratedly. At this moment, Long Xiao Ze who had been holding back his words before, didn’t forget to add something.

Only the heavens would know how hard he was trying to hold back all of his words when Mu Zu Ling and the Empress Dowager were fighting. Now, after the trouble was over, he could finally say a few words.

Annoyed, Mu Zi Ling rolled her eyes at him. If you didn't talk, no one would wonder if you were mute.

She then turned to concubine Li and continued to say, “Concubine Li, there is no need to worry. The tumor has already been removed, so there will be no more difficult problems. Make sure he rests well for the next few days. This Princess will come here three more times to switch the medicine. Once the wound heals, he will make a full recovery.”

“Alright, if that’s the case, then this Concubine can be relieved. Thank you for all the trouble, Qi Princess.” said concubine Li as she smiled. Her eyes and brows all showed an unconcealable sense of happiness.

Xiao Nan had been tormented by the pain for many years now, and her heart pained for him too. The normal concubines would also make fun of them because of this, but Now Xiao Nan could, now finally live normally.

“Concubine Li, you don’t have to mention it. Third Sister in law is really generous. She has said before that as a doctor, you have to be selflessly dedicated. Third Sister in law will definitely make sure that Fifth Brother will wake up. Right Third Sister in law?” Long Xiao Ze was acting very generous. It was as if concubine Li was thanking him.

Once Mu Zi Ling heard his words, she really wanted to give him a beating! She hadn’t even said anything yet! When women are talking, was there really a need for Long Xiao Ze to cut in?

Long Xiao Ze had been holding back his words for so long. Was his mouth getting itchy?? Also when did she ever say “selflessly dedicated”? She was not generous to that level.

Mu Zi Ling laughed lightly, “Concubine Li you are being too polite. This Princess will be going back now. After three days, I will come back to switch the Fifth Prince’s medicine.”

She had already taken care of everything, and she didn't want to stay here for any longer. Right now, Long Xiao Yu was not here, so she would have to be even more cautious about her actions.

“You have worked hard today, this concubine won't force you to stay. At another date, this concubine will bring Xiao Nan with me to thank you properly.”

No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't straighten the dimples on her smiling face.

“Third Sister in law, I also want to go to the Qi King’s Manor so I can see uncle Fu. We are going to the same place, so let’s go together.” Long Xiao Ze saw that Mu Zi Ling was leaving, and he started to follow her again.

He was getting more and more impressed by Third Sister in law. Even Le Tian couldn’t cure it, but Third Sister in law cured it so easily.

Mu Zi Ling didn’t bother with Long Xiao Ze. She put the strap of the medical box over her shoulders, and hurriedly left. She did not want to listen to Long Xiao Ze talk along the whole journey again.

“Hey, Third Sister in law wait for me!! How heavy is that box? I can help you carry it!” yelled Long Xiao Ze hurriedly behind her.

Shuo An Palace.

After the Empress left the Nan He palace, she headed straight to Shuo An Palace.

The Empress Dowager was leisurely lying on the bed. Both of her eyes were closed, and her fingers were massaging her temple. It seemed like she was angered quite a lot. She didn’t look at the person who came in and only coldly said, “How was it?”

The Empress excused all of the palace maids and eunuchs. Then she quietly said, “Mother, originally concubine Li didn’t agree with it, but this daughter thought up a way to make her agree, but who would've known that Mu Zi Ling would step in again. Because of her, Imperial doctor Li wasn’t able to successfully be left to watch over.”

When the Empress Dowager heard the three words, Mu Zi Ling, the anger that she subsided after all the trouble, came back again. Her sharp, keen eyes suddenly opened, “Mu Zi Ling, good move!”

“Mother, please calm down and don’t get angry. The Qi King had probably left someone there to watch over, so even if we did manage to get imperial doctor Li to stay, he wouldn't be able to make a move. In addition, everyone knows that imperial doctor Li is one of mother’s people. At that point, if something goes wrong, we would be the ones at a disadvantage.”

The Empress successfully roused Empress Dowager’s anger. She didn’t forget to act as a good person, while reminding the Empress Dowager at the same time.

She actually didn’t want imperial doctor Li to stay there. She had already predicted that concubine Li would refuse. In that case she would just beat the Empress Dowager at her own game by arguing a while and then coming back.

This way, she wouldn’t go against Empress Dowager’s words, while adding fuel to the hate the Empress Dowager had for Mu Zi Ling.

Only now did the Empress Dowager become clear headed. What the Empress said was the truth. She had been angered so much by Mu Zi Ling, without even thinking, she wanted to leave imperial doctor Li behind. Anyone could tell what she was actually trying to do. If anything happened, everyone would suspect that it was her first. Once that happened, not only would she would fail to steal the chicken, she would also lose a handful of rice. Then her gains would not be able to make up for her losses.

The Empress Dowager’s eyes flashed by with sense of cruelness, “This Mu Zi Ling is not simple. We must think of a way to eliminate her!”

“Mother, don’t worry about it. This daughter will definitely send someone to watch her closely.”

The more the Empress watched the Empress Dowager fly into a rage of humiliation, the happier she became.
