BXBX NOVEL Chapter 42 part 1
disease? How come even the imperial doctors couldn’t help him?”
Mu Zi Ling wasn’t rushing in the slightest. If the Empress didn’t want to say anything,
she had plenty of spare time. In the end, the one suffering would be Long Xiao Li.
Seeing that the Empress was having a hard time talking, the Empress Dowager
simply said, “There’s nothing much wrong with your Eldest Imperial Brother. It’s just
that he can’t be near female bodies.”
Although Mu Zi Ling had already known, hearing the Empress Dowager say it was
still very funny.
Other than her, since she knew what really was wrong with Long Xiao Li, everyone
else would just think that his disease was from his too many ‘deeds’ with too many
women. Empress Dowager had even managed to say it in a tactful manner.
“He can’t be near female bodies? Your daughter-in-law has never seen any illness
like this,” said Mu Zi Ling as she faked thoughtfulness.
Right now, she really wanted to watch the Empress toss out her dignity to beg her
to save Long Xiao Li.
As expected, when the Empress heard her, she started to panic. There wasn’t a bit
of empress aura around her anymore.
“Ling’er, just go and help your Eldest Imperial Brother by taking a look at his illness.
Since you were able to cure the headache that had been bothering Xiao Nan for so
many years, I know that you can also help your Eldest Imperial Brother,” said the
Empress urgently.
She wanted to look calm and collected. If it Long Xiao Li hadn’t been her one and
only son, she would not have acted so rashly in front of so many people.
“Your daughter-in-law can take a look, but your daughter-in-law cannot promise that
she can cure it,” said Mu Zi Ling, acting as if she was terrified.
She didn’t care what the Empress Dowager would do to her afterwards. She was
certain that she could cure Long Xiao Li, but she still had to act as if she didn’t know
anything.
“As long as Ling’er tries her best, this Dowager won’t blame you.”
Although this was what the Empress Dowager had said, she wasn’t thinking the
same thing inside. Mu Zi Ling, if you can’t cure him, then don’t you even think of
leaving this Palace.
“Your daughter-in-law will definitely try her very best,” said Mu Zi Ling respectfully.
How could Mu Zi Ling be oblivious to what the Empress Dowager was thinking.
She was absolutely certain that she was right, but even if she wasn’t, she was still
unafraid of the Empress Dowager’s hidden moves.
Long Xiao Li’s illness was nothing compared to Long Xiao Nan’s tumor, but since
the Empress and the Empress Dowager had personally invited her over, they
probably didn\'t want anything to happen to Long Xiao Li.
“This Dowager feels a bit tired, so you can go ahead without me to take a look at
Xiao Li.”
The Empress Dowager waved her hands, gesturing for the Empress to take Mu Zi
Ling to Long Xiao Li.
The Empress Dowager wouldn’t worry about any of the Emperor’s sons. However,
the Empress was the main concubine on her side in the Royal Palace and she had
a use for Long Xiao Li. If he was cured, then great, but if he wasn’t cured, it won\'t do
her any harm either. Instead, she could use this as a chance to get rid of Mu Zi Ling.
-
The Empress led Mu Zi Ling over to Long Xiao Li’s palace, but they hadn’t even
gotten close to the palace, when they could hear the furious screams of Long Xiao
Li, “You bunch of useless trash!!! What does this prince need you all for?!?!”
Mu Zi Ling knew that Long Xiao Li was about to kill people again, so she forgot the
Empress and rushed inside, kicking open the locked door.
Everyone present was struck dumb by Mu Zi Ling’s actions. Who could have
thought that the Qi King’s Princess was so valiant.
Inside the palace with a sword in his hand, Long Xiao Li suddenly stopped and
angrily looked towards the culprit who kicked open the door.
The moment Long Xiao Li saw Mu Zi Ling, a bright light flashed by his eyes, but he
could only quickly say, “Mu Zi Ling,” before he threw up again.
It seemed as though he could only puke stomach acid, since he had already thrown
up everything in his stomach.
Normally when Mu Zi Ling saw a scene like this, she would be take joy in their
calamity. However, for some reason, she could not feel happy when she looked
at him. Her heart and eyes even ached.
She raised her foot and slowly walked over.
The air was polluted with the smell of Long Xiao Li’s vomit and a strong scent of
blood. Mu Zi Ling couldn’t help but want to run away from there.
Although she had already saved the terrified imperial doctor for Long Xiao Li’s
sword, there were still a few that had he killed before she had arrived. Every one of
them lied lifelessly on the floor, donning many bloody wounds.
Although she was a doctor, and had seen many deaths, Mu Zi Ling was terrified
and wanted to hide away.
Although she didn’t directly kill them, they had died because of her.
She knew that these weren’t the only ones to have died under Long Xiao Li’s hands,
however, it was too late to change anything now. The only thing she could do at this
moment, was to cure Long Xiao Li in order to prevent him from killing more people.
This was the first time that she had felt regret for punishing a bad person.
She never once thought that Long Xiao Li could be so bloody and cruel to the point
where he would dare kill anyone in the palace without shame. He could heartlessly
wave his sword, and mercilessly kill any innocent person in the palace without even
batting his eyes.
When Long Xiao Li, who was still throwing up, saw Mu Zi Ling walk towards him, he
hurriedly said, “Don’t… Don’t come over here…!” before barfing.
Although Long Xiao Li longed for Mu Zi Ling to get close to him, he didn’t want her
anywhere near him right now. This illness was about to drive him crazy!
Whether or not he saw a female or smelt a perfume, he would start endlessly
vomiting. He had decided that it was the body of a concubine who infected him
with this strange illness.
Mu Zi Ling recovered from her sorrow and stopped in her steps. It seemed like Long
Xiao Li had been vomiting for a good while; he really cut a really sorry figure right
now. He had already gotten a bit skinnier from all the vomiting. However, she did not
feel even the slightest bit of pity for him, instead, she felt rage.
At this moment, she wanted to cut Long Xiao Li into many pieces. If it was not
because she did not want Long Xiao Li to continue his massacre, she wouldn’t have
cured Long Xiao Li of his poison this easily.
When the Empress arrived and saw the scene, she did not feel the slightest pity for
the dead imperial doctors. It was as if she was already used to Long Xiao Li’s cruel
actions.
She acted like the corpses on the ground died for a good cause. Her gaze didn’t
even linger on them for a second, before she stared worriedly as Long Xiao Li
barfed.
“My son…” said the Empress.
Her heart ached, but she didn’t dare near him.
“Barf… Leave…. All of you leave!” Long Xiao Li couldn’t take anymore and screamed
out.
