Cold King's Dominating Love, Genius Medical Consort

Chapter 41: Begging her part 1

Once they walked up to the carriage, Xie helped Mu Zi Ling up onto the carriage.

“Young Miss, this servant wants to accompany you,” said Xie full of expectation as she looked at Mu Zi Ling who was inside the carriage

Xie wanted to go with her Young Miss because she knew that every time the Young Miss entered the Royal Palace, nothing good ever happened. If she went, if something happened, she could at least try to protect the Young Miss.

“Xie, I am going to the Royal Palace alone, there will be no need for you to come with me. Rest assured, nothing will happen,” rejected Mu Zi Ling without the slightest bit of hesitation.

Mu Zi Ling knew that if something bad happened while she was in the Royal Palace, she could think up a way to escape. Right now, Xie was the closest person to her. If someone captured Xie to threaten her, then she wouldn’t know what to do.

It was better to be safe than sorry. Whether or not something good or something disastrous was going to happen, she could not bring Xie with her.

“Young Miss,” said Xie full of concern. She really wanted to accompany the Young Miss to the Royal Palace.

“It’s fine, if you keep delaying time and let the Empress Dowager wait for any longer, then something will definitely happen. Wait for me to come back,” said Mu Zi Ling, giving Xie a reassuring glance.

“Young Miss, then you must be careful. If something happens, then…. then..” as Xie was talking, she didn't know how to finish her sentence.

If something happens to the Young Miss when she’s in the palace, there would be no one to report what happened. She would’ve gone and informed his highness the Qi King, however, she didn’t even know where the Qi King was.

Amused be Xie’s expressions, Mu Zi Ling. Just as she was about to say something, an annoying voice interjected.

“Princess, you mustn’t delay anymore time. If the Empress Dowager is kept waiting for too long, we will both be in trouble,”said Lin mama loftily.

Lin mama seemed to have forgotten about the rules from earlier. As she had been watching the master and servant pair talk outside, she had grown impatient and her anger had started to boil.

“Such impudence! You dare suggest that this Princess’ identity is at the same level as that of a servant?!” exclaimed Mu Zi Ling coldly and sharply.

Did this old hag really think that she was a weak and soft lion? It was only a while ago that she had taught that old servant a lesson, yet she had forgotten it already.

It didn’t matter how low her identity was, it would still never be at the same level as that old hag.

“This servant would never dare to do so,” Lin mama could only shut her mouth angrily with the current situation.

However, in her heart was a great deal of anger that she could not spit out. The Qi Princess really was such an unpleasant person. Lin mama could only think about how she was going to complain about her at the Royal Palace.

Mu Zi Ling coldly glared at her, but didn’t bother with her any longer. She looked at Xie, and then turned to talk to the coachman, “Alright now, Xie, you go and stay inside the manor, coachman you can go.”

Xie watched at the carriage sadly. Once it had completely disappeared from sight, she hurried back into the manor in search for Uncle Fu.

The Empress Dowager went to look for the Emperor, knowing that he had locked the Empress up in to Kun Ning Palace.

She claimed that the Empress had only acted so recklessly because she was so worried about her son’s strange illness, and asked for the Emperor to understand the Empress’ caring heart.

The one thing that the Emperor couldn’t stand, were family matters. In the end, he still took back the Empress’ punishment helplessly

Once the Empress was released, she ran over to the Empress Dowager, begging for her to get Mu Zi Ling into the palace and cure Long Xiao Li. Naturally, the Empress Dowager was willing.

If Mu Zi Ling was able to cure him, then nothing would happen. If Mu Zi Ling wasn’t able to cure him, then she could just pin a crime on her head midway and save herself lots of effort.

When Mu Zi Ling arrived at the Royal Palace, the carriage stopped right at the entrance of the Shou An Palace.

She didn’t visit the Royal Palace very often, and this was her first time visiting the Empress Dowager’s palace. The interior was imposing and serene.

The Empress Dowager and Empress sat at equal standings on the main seat above. As they say, they ignored everything around them, creating an urge for others to fall onto the ground and kneel.

Mu Zi Ling walked in nobly and calmly without a trace of fear.

“This Qie, greets the Empress Dowager and the Imperial Mother,” said Mu Zi Ling, lowering her head to the two above.

She felt really confused right now. Long Xiao Ze had said that the Empress was prohibited from leaving her palace, so why was she in the Empress Dowager’s palace?

However, the Empress looked less than respectable today. Although she had on a lot of makeup, one could still tell that she that she was pale.

Mu Zi Ling reasoned that the reason she was called into the Royal Palace so early must have something to do with the Empress.

She had only just gotten out of her punishment, but she was already here at the Empress Dowager’s place. It looked like this Empress had a lot of tricks up her sleeves.

“Ling’er come over here. There’s no need for you to be so polite. Come, sit here,” called the Empress Dowager with a smile.

It was like all the animosity between them had turned into clouds and floated away. If someone didn’t know the full story, they would probably think that the Empress Dowager liked Mu Zi Ling a lot.

“Thank you Empress Dowager,” Mu Zi Ling then stopped being polite, and walked over to sit next to the Empress Dowager’s seat.

The Empress Dowager’s passionate tone would’ve probably fooled her, had Mu Zi Ling not already known the type of person the Empress Dowager was.

What did the Empress Dowager want this time? Couldn’t she act a little bit more normal? It was unnerving to be around her with this behaviour.

“Ling’er, this Dowager sent a mama to get you quite a while ago. Why have you only showed up now?” asked the Empress Dowager with a few traces of anger.

If the Empress dowager wasn’t troubling Mu Zi Ling, she would never be content.

Mu Zi Ling wanted to speak, but next to the Empress Dowager, Lin mama began to speak before her.

“It was this old servant’s fault Empress Dowager. This old servant was so busy telling the Princess your orders that she forgot to pay her respects. Not only did she offend the princess, she also wasted time.

Lin mama’s movements and voice were synchronised, her speed could render a person speechless. It was like she was afraid someone would speak before her.
