Unrivaled Miracle Doctor: The God-Defying Demonic Consort-Chapter 102: Lord’s Rules for Making Friends

Chapter 102: Chapter 102: Lord’s Rules for Making Friends

Qin Yiyao originally planned to leave after speaking with Mu Qingge. However, it seems she no longer wishes to depart so quickly. And Bai Xiyue...

Last time she went to find Prince Rui, she was met with a closed door.

After much effort, she found out that Prince Rui was punished to three months at the Imperial Temple, making him impossible to meet anytime soon.

She never knew why Prince Rui was punished.

Therefore, this time she followed Princess Changle to the Peach Forest, aiming to extract information from Mu Qingge. She firmly believed that given Mu Qingge’s attention to Prince Rui, he surely knew what happened.

Naturally, until she achieved her goal, she was unwilling to leave.

You He and Hua Yue stood behind Mu Qingge, exchanging a confused glance.

Why, when at the mansion, was this princess eager to see the little lord, yet now having met him, she says nothing?

"Princess, what is it exactly that you want from me?" Mu Qingge asked quite helplessly.

The few of them stood in the forest, under the fluttering blossoms, big eyes meeting small eyes, as if confused about what to do next.

Qin Yiyao pressed her lips, a slight awkwardness flashing across her cold expression, yet she answered with feigned indifference, "The scenery here is nice, let’s talk as we walk."

Unable to decipher the beauty’s mind, Mu Qingge could only follow along.

Accompanied by beauty and scenery, yet Mu Qingge’s thoughts remained elsewhere.

She was still pondering why Princess Changle had come to her voluntarily. From previous interactions, this princess seemed quite reluctant to associate with her.

Even though she had helped during the palace banquet, afterward, there were no further interactions between them.

Unless—

"Princess, did the Empress Dowager have any instructions?" Mu Qingge suddenly asked.

Qin Yiyao paused slightly, her lips subtly pressed, her clear eyes looking over with a gentle depth, "Must there be an imperial decree from the Grand Empress Dowager for me to come see you?"

Uh...

"Of course not." Mu Qingge’s mouth twitched slightly.

The two began to converse, seeming to leave Bai Xiyue aside. This made her beautiful eyes slightly colder, her gaze on their backs growing harsher.

Qin Yiyao’s gaze fell on the surrounding peach trees, saying, "I heard from the maid by your side that it was the Shao Family who invited you out today?"

This wasn’t something he needed to hide.

So, Mu Qingge nodded without much thought.

Seeing Mu Qingge’s acknowledgment, Qin Yiyao hesitated for a moment before saying, "In the future, you should limit your interactions with him. I hear his reputation is... not very good."

This tone carried a hint of closeness, though her voice still had a coldness, no longer as if speaking to a stranger.

Yet it made Mu Qingge’s expression turn cold, stopping in her tracks, she teasingly remarked, "His reputation is bad? Doesn’t the princess know that my reputation is not much better? In Luodu’s circle of gallivants, he ranks second, and I rank first."

Originally, she intended to patiently accompany this princess.

But did not expect that with such a remark, Mu Qingge lost all interest. Without regard for her situation, he strode off towards the place where he had parted from Shao Fatty.

"What were they chatting about so well, and now why is it like this suddenly?"

Hua Yue softly asked You He, the two hurriedly trailing after Mu Qingge.

Qin Yiyao was momentarily stunned, looking at Mu Qingge’s back, realizing she might have misspoken. But, she was acting for his good. Feeling wronged yet recalling she hadn’t yet discussed her current matter, she led her group to follow too.

Bai Xiyue, unnoticed by anyone, thought for a moment after they left, and also followed quickly with Lv Zhi.

"Miss, the little lord is ignoring us, perhaps we should head back." Lv Zhi, not possessing Bai Xiyue’s Middle Rank Yellow Realm strength, suggested, panting.

But would Bai Xiyue listen to her?

Without pausing her steps, she replied, "Today, I must find out why Prince Rui was punished. Only then can I know what to do next."

She admired Prince Rui for more than his outstanding looks, aloof temperament, and exceptional talent; it was his status and position she valued.

Handled well, she could possibly become the future empress of the nation.

But if Prince Rui falls out of favor with the Emperor, losing the chance to vie for the throne, she must consider if he’s worth staking everything on.

At present, she holds an advantage.

In the Mu Mansion, her position is rather special. Mu Lianrong also hopes she can marry Mu Qingge, and Prince Rui’s attitude towards her has slightly changed. Everything is in her control. Therefore, she needs to gather more accurate intelligence to deduce the best alignment for achieving future prominence.

Indeed! The Emperor has other sons too.

Bai Xiyue suddenly recalled a moniker mentioned during Mu Qingge’s conversation with Princess Changle, Prince Xian.

She vaguely remembered this title, only knowing this prince was very low-key.

And also the current Crown Prince in the Eastern Palace...

Bai Xiyue’s hand hidden in her sleeve tightened slightly. Suddenly, she felt as though her choices might extend beyond Mu Qingge and Prince Rui, though naturally, without surprises, Prince Rui remained her top choice.

After all, she truly had feelings for him.
