Unrivaled Miracle Doctor: The God-Defying Demonic Consort-Chapter 129: Lord’s Epic Face-Slapping and the Quest for First Subscription (Part 1)

"He actually ignores you?" Qin Jinhao’s eyes were obscure, his calm voice giving no hint of his emotions.

But to Bai Xiyue, Prince Rui was angry. The reason for his anger was similar to hers, both feeling disgusted by Mu Qingge’s actions.

A faint, smug smile curved her lips, and Bai Xiyue’s expression turned even more pitiful and innocent. She gently pushed away from Qin Jinhao’s embrace, took two steps, and said plaintively, "Xiyue is merely an orphan girl dependent on others, how can she compare to the noble Princess? I can understand why Brother Mu acts this way."

Qin Jinhao’s eyes flashed, and he stepped forward to ask, "Recently, has Mu Qingge been close to my imperial sister?"

Bai Xiyue nodded and replied truthfully, "The Princess often seeks out Brother Mu."

This news darkened Qin Jinhao’s gaze immediately.

In his view, having his imperial sister marry that waste Mu Qingge was truly a grievance. If she could be used for an alliance with a neighboring country, it would certainly aid his future ascent to the throne.

Therefore, the closeness of the relationship between Mu Qingge and Qin Yiyao was not something he was pleased to see.

He shared the same thought as his mother concubine, that while the power of the Mu Mansion still existed, it would be best to seize it and turn it into his own force. The Emperor targeting the Mu Mansion was only a matter of time. Once he got hold of the military power of the Mu Mansion, and the Emperor dealt with the Mu Family, finally marrying his imperial sister to a neighboring country, then which Qin Country prince could stand against him? Surely not the Crown Prince, who was that fickle-minded fool?

No, he must do something to stir up chaos in the Mu Family, only then would he have a chance to take advantage.

Qin Jinhao squinted his eyes, and a plan formed in his mind.

He said to Bai Xiyue, "Xiyue, you know my feelings for you. But, you must also understand, given our social statuses, even if I bring you into the residence in the future, the position of the main wife is impossible for you, not even the position of concubine..." As he spoke, a look of pain crossed his face.

Bai Xiyue panicked.

Not as the main wife, not even as a concubine? What identity, then? She wanted nothing less than Prince Rui’s entire heart, she desired the supreme position as the main wife.

However, she also knew that Prince Rui was telling the truth. After all, she was just an orphan.

Noticing the change in Bai Xiyue’s expression, when she showed despair, Qin Jinhao continued, "Actually, there is a way for me to marry you openly as my wife."

"What way?" Bai Xiyue asked eagerly.

Qin Jinhao stroked her hair and said slowly, "Naturally, it’s by doing things for the Emperor and achieving merit. Then, the Emperor will grant you the appropriate status, allowing you not only to restore the Bai Family’s prestige but also to become my wife with your head held high, and no one will dare to speak ill."

The beautiful prospects Qin Jinhao wove made Bai Xiyue yearn for it. She followed the ’sunny path’ he laid and asked, "But, I’m just a girl, how can I accomplish deeds for the Emperor and achieve merits?"

"You can, of course, you can." Qin Jinhao continued to encourage. "Don’t forget, you are now in the Mu Mansion, and in my father’s heart, the Mu Mansion has long been a major concern."

Bai Xiyue was shocked. The Emperor already... she hadn’t seen this step coming.

Thank goodness! Thank goodness she encountered Prince Rui, becoming his woman. In her heart, Bai Xiyue felt a frightening relief, thinking that if the Mu Mansion really fell, with Prince Rui’s protection, her fate would certainly not be as tragic as the other members of the Mu Mansion.

"Your Highness, what should Xiyue do?" Almost instantly, Bai Xiyue made her choice. She decided to abandon the Mu Mansion that had raised her to adulthood.
