World-shaking First Daughter: Powerful Medical Princess

Chapter 160 I Will Marry Him!

After returning to the mansion, Su Muge went directly to Bamboo Courtyard, and Xia Houmo went to the study.

“Your Grace, have a bowl of ginger tea to warm your body.”

Su Muge took a sip of the ginger tea and instantly felt a lot warmer.

“Has anyone from Duke Qing Mansion come today?”

“Your Grace, I haven’t got any message.”

“Okay.” Since nobody had come, the eldest Madam Li’s condition should have been stabilized temporarily.

“Your Grace, there is a disturbance in the Water Pavilion.” Xinche entered with a hand warmer and whispered.

The Water Pavilion was where Qingyu was living now.

Su Muge raised her eyebrows. “What’s the matter?”

“I heard that His Royal Highness was going to send Miss Liu out of the mansion, and Qingyu had been begging him to withdraw his order.”

Hearing this, Su Muge sat up. “Qingyu has cried?”

This question made Xinche stunned for a moment. She just heard it from a little maid. How could she know if Qingyu had cried or not?

“I’ll go and ask?”

Su Muge frowned slightly. “Well, tell him not to cry; otherwise, he will be blind in this life!”

“Ah? Okay, I’ll go right now.” Xinche turned around and walked out of the room.

There was crying and weeping in the Water Pavilion.

“No, I don’t believe His Royal Highness will drive me out of the mansion. I want to see His Royal Highness. I want to see His Royal Highness.” Liu Rumeng struggled to get rid of the two imperial guard’s hands, but as a woman with no kung fu, she was not the opponent of the imperial guards at all.

“Brother Qingyu, I don’t want to leave you. Brother Qingyu, please save me…” Liu Rumeng wanted to grab Qingyu, but Qingyu was stopped by Zuoqiu.

Zuoqiu frowned with dissatisfaction and said to the imperial guards, “How could you disturb Qingyu?”

The imperial guards were also helpless. As soon as Xia Houmo returned to the mansion, he ordered to send Liu Rumeng out of the mansion. Since Liu Rumeng’s ancestral home was in Huizhou and Liu Rumeng’s father had a mansion there, Xia Houmo intended to send her back to Huizhou.

However, just as they informed Liu Rumeng of His Royal Highness’s order, she began to scream and cry. Her room was not far from Qingyu’s room, so they couldn’t do anything at all.

“We are incompetent.”

“Hurry to send her out.”

“Zuoqiu! You know that Rumeng and I love each other. Why do you do this to us?!” Qingyu was full of anger, but he couldn’t see and had no way to stop them.

Zuoqiu put on a sullen face. “Qingyu, this is the order of His Royal Highness. Do you want to defy the order of His Royal Highness?”

Qingyu turned pale. “His Royal Highness, why would he do this?” Was it really like what Rumeng had said… the Rani had said something to His Royal Highness…

“Brother Qingyu, save me. I really don’t want to leave…what have I done wrong…”

Hearing the screaming inside, Xinche paused but walked in and said, “Qingyu, the Rani said that you couldn’t cry, or it would be difficult for your eyes to recover in the future.”

Seeing that Qingyu had no intention to cry, Xinche felt relieved that the Rani’s treatment wouldn’t be in vain.

“Her Grace, I want to see Her Grace. Take me to see Her Grace!” Hearing Xinche’s words, Qingyu staggered toward Xinche.

Xinche had never expected that he would come towards her.

Although Qingyu couldn’t see, as a man practicing martial arts, he had sharp ears.

Zuoqiu stepped up to stop Qingyu. “Qingyu, don’t mess around.”

Qingyu pushed him away. “I’m not messing around; I want to see Her Grace. I want Rumeng to stay!”

“His Royal Highness just wants to send her back to Huizhou. If you really want to be with her, you can ask His Royal Highness to let you go to find her after your eyes get better!”

“No, I won’t go back. I don’t want to leave brother Qingyu!” Liu Rumeng knew better than anyone else that if she left the capital, it would be almost impossible for her to come back in the future!

Zuoqiu put on a cold face. “Well, it’s okay if you don’t want to go back. His Royal Highness has also said that as long as you marry Qingyu, you can stay in the mansion until Qingyu’s eyes get better. After that, you will be sent away together.”

Zuoqiu’s words calmed Qingyu down.

“Zuoqiu, what did you say?”

Zuoqiu snorted coldly. If his eyes hadn’t been blind, he would beat him hard and wake him up right now.

“If she marries you, she can stay here for a while.”

In doing so, Xia Houmo was also thinking about the friendship with Qingyu during so many years as well as the relationship with Liu Rumeng’s father.

After finishing his words, Zuoqiu fixed his cold eyes on Liu Rumeng.

Liu Rumeng gritted her teeth with a pale face, “I will! I will marry brother Qingyu …”

Zuoqiu sneered. “Now that you have agreed, I’ll go back to report to His Royal Highness.” Zuoqiu waved his hands, and the two imperial guards released her.

“When Qingyu’s eyes have recovered, His Royal Highness will send you both to Huizhou.”

After finishing his words, Zuoqiu left with the imperial guards.

After everyone left, Qingyu groped for Liu Rumeng and helped her up.

“Rumeng, His Royal Highness has promised us that we will go to Huizhou after my eyes have recovered. I’ll treat you well.” He caressed Liu Rumeng’s tear-stained face, but he didn’t see her resentful eyes.

Xinche returned to Bamboo Courtyard and explained the situation to Su Muge in detail.

“I don’t know if I have seen it wrong. I always felt that Miss Liu’s eyes were full of resentment when she agreed to marry Qingyu.”

Su Muge stopped reading the medical book and looked at her, feeling amused. “How do you know if there is resentment or happiness in her eyes?”

Thinking that Liu Rumeng gritted her teeth, Xinche was sure that she was not happy.

“Your Grace, I’m not stupid. She almost pop her eyeballs out. How could she be happy?”

Su Muge thought that Xia Houmo would be more tolerant of Liu Rumeng… No, he had already been too tolerant of her… How dare she poison someone in Jin Mansion!? If it were anyone else, he would have been dead already. If she were her, she would hide as far as possible, lest Xia Houmo would kill her one day when he was in a bad mood.

The night was as cold as ice.

Some ghostly figures were shuttling quickly through the darkness on the icy street.

They crossed the empty street and stopped in a black alley opposite a large mansion.

The moonlight illuminated the black plaque of the mansion, on which there were two golden characters “Jin Mansion”.

“The defense inside is so strict that our people can’t get in at all.”

“You can’t think of another way?”

“If we could go in, we wouldn’t have stayed outside in the cold weather for so long.”

“What about luring the enemy away from his base?!”

“Well, that’s the only way.”

Late at night, almost all the people in Jin Mansion had fallen asleep.

Two imperial guards were patrolling in the mansion. As they turned around, several arrows on fire flew into the mansion.

“What is it?”

“It’s an arrow! There are assassins! Everyone! Pay attention!”

When the imperial guards shouted, they alarmed the imperial guards elsewhere, and the quietness of the mansion was instantly broken.

More than a dozen people in black flew in and shuttled through the mansion quickly.

In Bamboo Courtyard, Xia Houmo, who was sleeping with Su Muge in his arms, suddenly opened his cold and dark eyes.

Donglin’s rapid footsteps came from outside the door in time.

“Your Royal Highness, there are assassins in the mansion.”

Xia Houmo gently released the girl in his arms carefully without awakening her. Then he turned over, got up, picked up his robe on the screen, put it on, and walked out.

“Have you caught them?”

“They are chasing after them.”

In the Water Pavilion, Liu Rumeng pushed open the door of the toilet and walked out.

Without anyone in the yard in the evening, she was a little scared and stepped up for her room.

However, just as she was a few steps away from the door of her room, a black figure flew over, covered her mouth and nose, and dragged her back into the toilet.

Liu Rumeng was horrified with her eyes widened. She wanted to make some sounds to attract Qingyu’s attention. But there was a certain distance from his room, so she was not sure if Qingyu could hear her.

“Don’t move. As long as you obey me, I won’t kill you.”

Liu Rumeng nodded desperately.

Sure enough, the man in black released her but attacked her dumb acupuncture point.

“Liu Rumeng.” The man in black called Liu Rumeng’s name, which made her even more shocked.

Liu Rumeng looked at him, seeming to be asking who he was.

The black man sneered. “Who doesn’t know that the King of Jin has raised a beauty in his mansion for so many years?! There were even rumors that the King of Jin would raise you as his concubine. Unexpectedly…”

Liu Rumeng clenched her fists in her sleeves, with the fear in her heart overwhelmed by her hatred.

“I’m here today to help you.” The black man hit her dumb acupuncture point again.

“What the hell are you?”

“A person who can help you.”

The man in black took out a small cloth bag and handed it to her.

“Put it in the Rani of Jin’s room. And your wish will come true.”

Liu Rumeng took it over and wanted to open it but was stopped by the man in black. “Don’t hurry to see what’s inside. Just tell me, do you want Su Muge to die?”

Thinking that she had waited for so many years but could only get Xia Houmo’s ruthlessness, Liu Rumeng gritted her teeth and said, “Yes!”

“Well, you know what to do. After three days, if you have succeeded, hang a piece of white cloth on the back door of the mansion.”

“Okay.”

Just as Liu Rumeng thought she could leave, the man in black suddenly opened her mouth and threw a black pill into it.

“Oh, what, what did you feed me?”

“Miss Liu, rest assured. As long as you have succeeded, I’ll give you the antidote.” After that, the man in black pushed Liu Rumeng out of the toilet and flew away.

Liu Rumeng returned to her room with a pale face and opened the cloth bag.

There were several letters in it. She opened the letter and couldn’t help shaking her fingers.

“Go in and search.”

Hearing a noise outside the courtyard, she quickly blew out the candlelight, hid the bag of letters, and lay down on the bed.

As soon as she lay down, Zuoqiu led people into the yard.

“Search everywhere. Don’t let go anywhere that people can hide!”

“Yes.”
