Chapter 401: Lost

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Chu Zhihe was extremely anxious, but she tried to suppress her emotions. She gritted her teeth before she tried to soften her voice and said, “Abbot, check again. My finger really hurts.”

Abbot Liao Chen did not change at all as he said slowly, “Benefactor, there’s really nothing wrong with your finger.”

Chu Zhihe was unwilling to give up. She raised both her hands and showed her ten fingers as she said, “What about this finger? And this one…”

In the end, Abbot Liao Chen still said, “There’s nothing wrong with your fingers. ”

“No, it’s impossible! It’s because you’re not skilled enough!” Chu Zhihe scolded Abbot Liao Chen.

The Empress Dowager immediately berated, “Presumptuous! Abbot Liao Chen is the abbot of the Temple of Eternal Peace appointed by the Emperor

Emeritus! He has contributed greatly to Xichu over the years! How dare you be rude?”

Abbot Liao Chen lowered his head slightly and said, “It’s okay, Benefactor. However, every word I said is worthy of Buddha.”

Everyone’s expression was not very good. After all, Abbot Liao Chen had a high prestige. Even the Emperor Emeritus and the Emperor were polite to him. Chu Zhihe’s behavior was indeed too much.

Consort Mu also knew the situation was not very good for them at this moment. She took a deep breath and forced a smile on her face before she said, “Abbot, Empress Dowager, Zhihe is in a lot of pain so she made a mistake and lost her composure. It wasn’t her intention to be rude.”

Empress Qin naturally would let go of such a good chance to add salt to injury. She said mockingly, “Her finger is not even broken. How can she be in pain?”

Consort Mu’s face twisted into an unsightly expression immediately. She looked at the nanny behind her and said in a low voice, “There are imperial doctors who came to the temple as well. Summon them here.”

Everyone exchanged a look as their minds spun again.

‘Don’t Consort Mu’s actions mean that she doesn’t trust Abbot Liao Chen?’ ‘How can she act like that to the abbot?’

‘Consort Mu and the Sixth Princess are really too disrespectful. This is the temple. This is no different from disrespecting Buddha…’

Consort Mu was aware that her actions would offend many people. However, since things had come to this, she had to find evidence to prove that Yu Yunxi had really hurt Chu Zhihe.

Meanwhile, Yu Yunxi remained silent as though she was not the party involved.

Soon after, a few imperial physicians arrived. Consort Mu’s servants were in a

rush so they did not have time to tell the imperial doctors anything. All the

imperial doctors knew was that they had to examine Chu Zhihe’s finger.

After the imperial doctors took turns examining Chu Zhihe’s finger, one of them said, “Consort Mu, the Sixth Princess’s finger is fine. It’s not broken.

There’s not even a scratch on her finger.”

After that, the other imperial doctors chimed in, echoing similar words.

In just a moment, the atmosphere turned strange.

Chu Zhihe screamed, “Impossible! My finger is still hurting! Did that b*tch, Yu Yunxi, bribe you?”

The imperial doctors’ faces turned red, fuming with anger. Their medical skills were not so bad that they could not tell if a finger was broken or not. Alas, the other party was a princess so they could only suppress their anger.

At this moment, the pain in Chu Zhihe’s finger intensified. It was as though countless ants were gnawing on her finger. She screamed, “My finger hurts! It hurts! Mother, hurry up and behead these quacks!”

Consort Mu’s heart ached when she heard Chu Zhihe’s painful cries. She vented her anger on the imperial doctors immediately, screaming, “Quick, treat the Sixth Princess! Can’t you see that she’s in pain?”

At this time, the Empress Dowager said loudly with a dark expression on her face, “Enough! How long are you going to make a fool out of yourself? Are you going to continue embarrassing the imperial family?”

“Empress Dowager, I…” Consort Mu said, still wanting to argue. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝙚𝒘𝙚𝒃𝙣𝓸𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝓶

However, the Empress Dowager said directly, “Consort Mu and the Sixth Princess lost their composure today. They’ll be punished to copy the scriptures ten times. They’re not allowed to return to the palace until they’re done.”

Blood drained from Consort Mu and Chu Zhihe’s faces immediately. Due to the Emperor’s love and protection, their lives had always been rather easy.

However, now, they were actually punished in front of so many people.

Chu Zhihe was not convinced, and she still wanted to argue. However, Consort

Mu quickly tugged at her sleeve, reminding her not to act rashly. After all, the Emperor was not present. If they continued making trouble, no one would support them. They had to endure the anger for now.

“Yes, Empress Dowager. We’ve both made a mistake today. We’ll go and copy the scriptures now,” Consort Mu said before she led Chu Zhihe away.

However, the mother and daughter had only taken a few steps when a cold voice said, “Wait, Sixth Imperial Cousin. Have you forgotten that you have yet to apologize to me?”

As soon as Yu Yunxi’s voice fell, not only did Chu Zhihe’s expression turn extremely unsightly, but the faces of Yang Yeqi and the others turned ashen as well.

‘The Eldest Princess is determined to see the bet through…’

Chu Zhihe turned around and looked at Yu Yunxi. At this moment, an idea flashed in her mind, and realization dawned on her. She said angrily, “You! It’s you! It’s your trap! You know medicine, after all. You must have used a way to make my finger hurt without letting people discover anything is wrong!”

‘And you only found out now?’

Yu Yunxi raised an eyebrow. She actually felt that Chu Zhihe’s stupidity was a little cute.

Before Yu Yunxi could respond, Empress Qin said, “Sixth Princess, do you have any evidence to back up your words? If you don’t, then you’re just slandering your Imperial Cousin. The Emperor will be displeased when he hears about this…”

Empress Qin spoke casually, but each word was stepping on Consort Mu and Chu Zhihe’s sore spots. She had long wanted to teach Consort Mu a lesson. Today, she would use Yu Yunxi to make Consort Mu suffer a little.

‘This b*tch! Must she trample on me when I’m down?!’

Consort Mu was seething with anger. She said through gritted teeth, “Empress, this is just a small fight between the children. When we return to the palace, I’ll definitely get Zhihe to apologize to Yunxi. We’ll go and copy the scriptures now.”

With that, Consort Mu tried to pull Chu Zhihe away. She naturally did not want to honor the bet. fre ewebn ovel

“Wait, ” Yu Yunxi said as she slowly walked over and stood in front of Consort

Mu and Chu Zhihe, “Consort Mu, are you trying to prevaricate?”

Consort Mu stared at Yu Yunxi like a venomous snake as she said threateningly, “Yu… Eldest Princess, let’s talk about this when we return to the palace.”

Yu Yunxi ignored the murderous expression on Consort Mu’s face. She pushed her hair back and said, “I’m sorry. I like to resolve things immediately. When we made the bet earlier, so many people were watching. Don’t tell me Consort Mu and Sixth Imperial Cousin want to go back on their word? To think that the mother of the Sixth Princess and the Seventh Prince is such a person. If the

Seventh Prince is like you, I wonder if he… also likes to go back on his word…” Yu Yunxi deliberately raised her voice nearing the end of her words.

Consort Mu resisted the urge to kill Yu Yunxi and interjected, “Enough! This has nothing to do with Yuemu!”

There were so many people watching today. If this matter implicated Chu Yuemu and made people question his character, Consort Mu knew she would lose a lot more than she had already lost..
