Chapter 243 -243 Making Her Have a Premature Birth with Severe Bleeding

“It’s too dangerous! You’re only a little over a month away from giving birth!”

Divine Doctor Zhai was the first to disagree.

But Murong Jiu quickly convinced him.

“With my master by my side, I’m not afraid! Zhuo Yinzhu is cunning and vicious, and I even suspect that although she appears to be aligned with The Third Prince, she has already conspired with the Second Prince behind the scenes. For someone like her, even if we can’t eliminate her, we must at least crush her confidence. Otherwise, she will be a never-ending threat. The Prince and my brothers will soon return, having achieved great feats. Neither the Second Prince nor The Third Prince will let them bask in their glory!”

Indeed, that was the case.

Jun Yuyan had been underestimated by both the Second and The Third Princes, but who could have imagined that, in just a few months, he would acquire the Xiongnu ‘Fire-thunder’ formula and produce a large quantity of it? It caught the Xiongnu off guard and left them with no chance to retaliate.

These past few days, the people of the Capital City were as merry as if they had just celebrated the New Year, let alone the citizens of the northern cities closer to Hexi.

Jun Yuyan truly deserved his title of War God.

Some citizens even privately called him the savior of Great Yan.

The luster of the Second and The Third Princes was completely overshadowed.

In their struggle for the position of Crown Prince, they were prepared to do anything.

After a long contemplation, Divine Doctor Zhai nodded and asked her, “Girl, do you have any good ideas?”

“To deal with such people, we must fight fire with fire, tooth for tooth!”

As she spoke, she whispered her plan into her master’s ear.

Divine Doctor Zhai’s eyes shone brightly.

That very day, a guard from Prince Ling’s Mansion found his way to the Third Prince’s Mansion.

“Princess Consort Ling wants to see me?”

Zhuo Yinzhu was initially surprised, then scoffed, “She suspects it was I who had the mentor poison her brother with Gu, right? Sharp indeed, but what evidence does she have?”

The Third Prince, standing beside her, said, “What’s there to fear? With me here, how could she possibly harm you?”

“Would I be afraid of her? She was once an ugly girl, and now, not only has she become the darling of the General’s Mansion, but she also became Princess Consort Ling. She really hit the jackpot! But even so, she’s still not a match for me, that ugly freak. Speaking of which, I haven’t yet seen what Princess Consort Ling without her birthmark looks like. Your Highness, how does she compare in beauty to me?”

“She may be beautiful, but she lacks soul, unlike you, Yinzhu, who are lively and interesting.”

The Third Prince could not bring himself to say that Yinzhu was more beautiful, for he had not seen a woman more beautiful than Murong Jiu.

Even Noble Consort Qi, known in the palace for her looks, was not as exquisitely beautiful as Murong Jiu.

It’s just that he had never had much interaction with Murong Jiu, and whenever they met, Jun Yuyan was always there, shielding Murong Jiu tightly. If anyone dared to look at her a few seconds longer, his cold gaze warned them off. The Third Prince did not have the audacity to stare.

After all, before his injury, he was only a ‘less favored’ prince, not daring to overstep.

Zhuo Yinzhu was somewhat displeased. In the month since she returned to the Capital City, she had heard more than once about the unmatched beauty of Murong Jiu, but she didn’t take it seriously.

She had seen Murong Jiu when they were both around ten years old; the birthmark on her face was quite unsightly, having nothing to do with beauty.

So even though she heard that Murong Jiu had become very beautiful after removing her birthmark, she paid no mind, thinking it was just the citizens of the Capital City who had been grateful for the grain Murong Jiu distributed, hence speaking so highly of her.

She said, “Then I truly wish to see just how stunning she is, that even Your Highness finds her beautiful. We have been troubled by not being able to lure her out of the Prince Mansion, but this provides us with a legitimate reason to meet with her outside the mansion.”

Having said that, she asked the person below, has Murong Jiu mentioned where she wishes to meet?

“The guard from Prince Ling’s Mansion said that Princess Consort Ling has invited you to have tea at the Fuyuan Building during the third quarter of the hour of Wei (1-3 PM).”

“Very well, go back and reply that I have accepted the invitation.”

After the servant had left, Zhuo Yinzhu pretended to be worried and said, “Your Highness, do you think Murong Jiu will report me to the authorities and have me arrested? After all, I am a Sinful Slave…”

“Laughable, Yinzhu, I am the son whom father emperor favors the most! I have merely chosen a woman, and as long as you are not a spy from an enemy state, father emperor won’t care in the least and will indulge me, especially since I have been injured. Father emperor has been even more affectionate towards me. Moreover, you are no longer a Sinful Slave; a few days ago, I had already ordered your slave status to be annulled. Now, you have only one identity, and that is as my woman!”

Yinzhu’s face lit up with a surprised and touched expression, and she bashfully threw herself into the Third Prince’s arms.

The Third Prince was quite pleased with her demure and girlish demeanor.

The Third Prince then asked, “Shall we proceed with the plan, to poison her with Gu and make her jump off the city wall?”

Zhuo Yinzhu shook her head, “The situation with Fu Han indicates that Murong Jiu and her master are capable of curing Gu; hence, using Gu will not work, we can only resort to poisoning. I do not want her to die too easily; it would be best if she dies in front of Prince Ling when he returns.”

“What if her master can cure the poison?”

She confidently stated, “Divine Doctor Zhai is a savior who heals the sick; he disdains studying poisons. However, my master, Divine Doctor Miao, hails from a family of the Poison King in Xiangxi, proficient in both medicine and poison. My senior brother is even more capable than him. I will go to them now and have them concoct a poison that Divine Doctor Zhai will absolutely not be able to cure, and administer it to Murong Jiu today.”

If we miss today, we might not have such a good opportunity again.

Murong Jiu daring to ask for a meeting is practically seeking her own death.

Hearing that Murong Jiu has asked to meet Zhuo Yinzhu, Miao Wuxie’s eyes flashed.

Divine Doctor Miao directly took out a handful of dried flowers from a chest.

“Using poison can be easily detected, but you can place these dried flowers indoors, so she inhales their scent for about the third quarter of an hour. By tonight, she will suffer a fright that affects her pregnancy; the more she tries to stabilize it with medicinal soups, the weaker her body will become, and within ten days, she will die from bleeding out due to miscarriage.”

Zhuo Yinzhu’s eyes sparkled, surprised she exclaimed, “These dried flowers actually possess such miraculous effects?”

“This is a strange flower I discovered not long ago in a deep forest. No medical texts have ever documented it. After several experiments, I concluded its medicinal effects, and you can be sure that Divine Doctor Zhai knows nothing of it.”

“So it means there is no antidote, and Murong Jiu will inevitably suffer a miscarriage and die from severe blood loss, correct?”

“Correct! Unless she has tremendous luck and mistakenly avoids taking the pregnancy-stabilizing medicinal soups, otherwise, death is certain.”

The Third Prince, seated in a wheelchair, covered his nose and mouth, “Will this have any adverse effects on normal people?”

“Normal people will not be affected by a brief inhalation, and at most, they will simply feel drowsy after smelling it too much. It only affects the fetus inside a pregnant woman.”

Only then did the Third Prince feel at ease.

“Excellent, I will immediately send someone to arrange it, and place these dried flowers in the private room where Murong Jiu is scheduled to meet Yinzhu.”

Divine Doctor Miao suggested, “We should also prepare for contingencies. My Junior Brother Zhai appears unkempt and rough, but he is actually meticulous. If they demand a change of private rooms at the last minute, all our preparations would be for naught.”

Yinzhu nodded, “According to Master’s view, what other arrangements need to be made?”

Divine Doctor Miao glanced at Miao Wuxie, who had remained silent, and then instructed him, “Go and bring me a fresh pot of hot tea.”
