Stunning Poisonous Doctor Princess-Chapter 779 - Re-acquaintance of Sisters
Chapter 779 Re-acquaintance of Sisters
Just as his mind was in puzzlement, then the next second, he saw a figure in white standing in the yard and instantly understood Xiaoyu’s dilemma.
“Master I’m here to pay my respects to you.”
Her trembling and suppressed voice sounded a little cautious.
She lowered her head uneasily. If it weren’t for the long sword on her waist, people would think she was a little girl who got caught doing something wrong.
Xiaoyu secretly glanced at his sister. Although he knew her very well, Baisu had once given up her life for him. And Baisu had never asked for anything from him.
Only when Baisu learned that his sister was in Lieyun did she finally kneel down in front of him and plead to see her.
However, Xiaoyu was afraid that his sister still did not want to see Baisu.
He sighed and was about to instruct Baisu to leave when he heard Lin Mengya’s indifferent voice.
“Since you’re here, come and have a seat. Come to think of it, we haven’t seen each other for a while.”
Compared to the dazed pair, Lin Mengya had already let bygones be bygones in her heart.
At that time, Baisu didn’t exactly do anything to her. She just thought that Baisu had hidden her identity as a spy from her.
But in fact, Baisu had no choice. The reason why Lin Mengya heartlessly drove Baisu away was probably to protect her so that she would not be killed by others.
Spies were a secret force that each country wanted to eliminate secretly. Lin Mengya did not want Baisu to die in that way.
But who knew that this girl attached such importance to their relationship. Well, with her current state, there was really nothing to take advantage of.
During trying times, people would find now who their true friends were.
“Yes, master.”
For the first time, there was excitement on her cold face.
Even Xiaoyu felt that Baisu, who had been forgiven by Lin Mengya, seemed to be different.
Lin Mengya smiled and gave Baisu a look, who was a little hesitant. Then she walked up to Lin Mengya but refused to sit down.
Like a little girl who had done something wrong, she timidly looked at Lin Mengya with hope.
“I believe Xiaoyu has told you everything about me. I’m no longer the princess or your master. If you feel uncomfortable addressing me, just call me sister like Xiaoyu.”
Lin Mengya intended to calm Baisu down.
However, Baisu had misunderstood and thought that Lin Mengya had not forgiven her.
Instantly, a pair of bright eyes brimmed with tears.
Seeing this, Lin Mengya was a little flustered. “How did this girl become so tearful after only a few months?”
“I know it’s my fault. I shouldn’t have kept it a secret from you, Master. But…but I had no choice. Please punish me, Master. Please, just don’t turn me down.”
Her pitiful cries softened Lin Mengya’s heart.
Lin Mengya reached out her hand and gently wiped away her tears. Honestly, what did Baisu do wrong really? Her only fault was that she was not born in the era of peace and happiness.
“Hey stop. That’s not what I meant. Since we’re reunited here, you’re the closest person to me, apart from Xiaoyu. But all your constant crying has made me wonder if I’ve mistaken you for someone else.”
Baisu blinked her big eyes and looked at Lin Mengya in disbelief.
She had thought of thousands of ways to beg for Master’s forgiveness, but she didn’t expect that Master really didn’t blame her.
She lifted the hem of her clothes embarrassedly. Her master was special to her.
Not only because she was the elder sister most valued by young master.
Back in those days in Dajin, Master gave her a family, sisters, and a warm and trustworthy home.
When she was forced to leave Dajin, she felt heartbroken. For the first time, she experienced how painful it was to be homeless.
She had dreamed of going back to that home and returning to the family who were as close as sisters.
Now that her Master had forgiven her, this was more precious to her than anything.
“It seems that my gift was not prepared in vain. Sister, you must need help if you stay in the palace. Though Baisu is by my side, she is not thinking about me. Why don’t you let her come here and help you?”
Seeing that the situation was getting better, Xiaoyu breathed a sigh of relief.
Baisu’s identity was kind of special. When she was sent to serve him, she had another mission, which was to observe and monitor.
Now that she had been completely conquered by Lin Mengya, he no longer had to worry about her.
Moreover, with her around, no one could hurt his sister.
“That’s not a good idea. The situation in the palace is very capricious. Baisu is one of your people. No matter whether she has shown her face or not, she will be the first one to bear the brunt if someone wants to hurt you. I’ve already fallen into the trap, so, don’t get others involved.”
Lin Mengya was simply thinking about Baisu as well.
Baisu was highly skilled in martial arts and was very meticulous. However, the people in the palace were all women and they used delicate methods to hurt people.
As the saying went, “It’s easy to dodge a spear in the open, but hard to defend against an arrow in the dark.” She was really afraid that Baisu would be at a loss here because of her.
“No, I want to stay by your side, Master! Young Master, I heard that the First Prince had returned to the palace a few days ago. He would definitely be at odds with Madam. What would my Master do then?”
Baisu asked anxiously. But she saw the helplessness on Wanyan Yu’s face.
Yesterday, she was as cold as ice and frost, but now, she kept calling his sister ‘Master’, which made him, the former young master, feel a little frustrated.
However, he had to admit defeat to his sister, whom Baisu swore by.
He knew how Baisu felt, so he started persuading his sister.
“Baisu is right, sis. But don’t worry, she comes from an extraordinary background. The First Prince would think twice before harming her. Moreover, even if I were to take her away, do you think she would obediently stay by my side?”
Xiaoyu spread out his hands and pretended to be helpless.
Lin Mengya thought it over and over again and made an agreement with Baisu that in front of outsiders, Baisu had to call her Helan, and Baisu agreed.
Looking at Baisu and Xiaoyu who were jumping with joy, Lin Mengya felt as if her heart was surrounded by warmth.
It felt good to have family companionship.
In the end, as a new palace maid, Baisu worked for Lin Mengya exclusively.
Fortunately, Madam Jingrou was in charge of all these things, so the addition of another palace maid would not attract other people’s attention.
Not to mention that the palace had been in a state of chaos recently. Who would deliberately check if there had been any new additions in the Fengyu Court recently?
Baisu cherished being able to return to Lin Mengya’s side.
A bright smile appeared on her cold face.
Even Lin Mengya could not help but wonder if this girl had fallen ill.
According to her arrangement, Xiaoyu would go to the Emperor’s resting palace to pay his respects every morning and then go with the Emperor to deal with national affairs.
When he came back at night, he’d chat with Madame Jingrou for a bit or go out for a walk with his mother.
In this way, he would be exposed to the public almost day and night.
He had made sufficient preparations for what would happen next.
On the second day, the poison in the Empress’s body had disappeared.
When the news came out, several people of the Fengyu Court were playing cards around Madame Jingrou’s chambers.
“Got it. You may leave.”
After sending away the messenger, Lin Mengya and Madame Jingrou exchanged looks as if they had a tacit understanding.
In the past few days, those priests had suffered a lot. They tried their best to let the Empress’s illness be better, but to no avail.
It was said that they had gotten into a few quarrels with the Eldest Prince over the treatment, or seemingly torture, of his beloved mother, who had been in a coma.
This was expected. The Eldest Prince already had too much hostility within him, so when he saw that his mother was being tortured to no end, he was naturally angry.
It was not detrimental to them. On the contrary, it allowed them to carry out their plan better.
“It’s really strange for the Empress to fall ill. I heard from the palace maids of Linqiu Pavilion that the Empress may have been struck by an evil curse.”
In the room, only Ningqiu did not know the complete truth.
But actually, Ningqiu was very smart. She had already guessed that this matter must have something to do with Madam.
Therefore, she paid attention to everything in Linqiu Pavilion all the time. As long as there was any news, she would report it to her Madam immediately.
“Hah, to me, it seems like the only thing evil is within those walls of the Linqiu Pavilion. She deserves what she got, and she wants to blame it on others too.”
In Xiaoyu’s eyes, the Empress was nothing more than a useless old witch.
Madam Jingrou gave Xiaoyu a disapproving look. No matter what, the Empress was still his elder.
“Don’t speak like that!”
“Mother, don’t be angry. I know I shouldn’t have said that. I think I’m gonna call it a day. I’m going to visit father and revise yesterday’s homework.”
Putting down the cards in his hands, Xiaoyu slipped away.
Looking at the calm little guy, Lin Mengya smiled.
It seemed that this little guy not only respected herself, but also respected the smart and gentle Madame Jingrou, very much.
That wasn’t a bad thing, he could learn a whole lot from Madame Jingrou.
“In which direction do you think the evil wind will blow?”
Madame Jingrou rubbed her forehead and stopped wasting energy on these trivial things.
Lin Mengya understood what Madam meant. To put it bluntly, it was a matter between women in the imperial harem.
Xiaoyu had better not get involved in women’s business.
“I don’t know where the wind will blow, but what I do know is that Fengyu Court is a hot spot for trouble. The Eldest Prince used an aggressive method to deal with Beauty Jin just a few days ago, so he may not show mercy to our Fengyu Court. But don’t worry, Madam, he still can’t do anything to the Fengyu Court. But even if the Eldest Prince wants to do something, he won’t be able to in a few days.”
Madame Jingrou nodded in agreement.
“That’s true. It’s just that you’ll have to work hard these next few days.”
Madame Jingrou smiled softly and exchanged looks with Lin Mengya. There was no need to say anything else.
