The Doctor's Concubine: Don't mess with the evil princess

Chapter 93 Mu Baiying's True Face

Fifth Miss, the old lady has been afraid these years!" Bi Qing followed behind Mu Lanfeng and said inexplicably.

She didn't say what she was afraid of.

How could Mu Lanfeng not know what she was afraid of!

The stepmother Jiang was showing off her power in the Mu Mansion under the banner of the Empress Dowager's niece. Madam Mu had to swallow her anger for the sake of her son's face. She was a person who valued face the most. Jiang did many things in public and another behind her back. Even though her son knew that it was Jiang who did it, he did not dare to attack her in public, for fear of angering Jiang and having her run to the palace to complain to the Empress Dowager. Life would be difficult for the whole family.

Since they have chosen Jiang, there is no room for regret!

"Since my father has chosen this path, he should know the consequences and can't blame anyone!" Mu Lanfeng said coldly.

"But the old lady..."

"Okay, Biqing, please tidy up the table!" Mu Lanfeng interrupted Biqing.

She didn't want to continue talking about this topic.

As the cause of death of Aunt Yang became clearer and clearer, Mu Lanfeng became more and more unhappy. He couldn't even trust his blood relatives, so who else in this huge Mu Mansion could he trust?

Biqing felt bored, packed up the food and left quickly.

She didn't want to hit the gun.

……

After noon, Jiang and Mu Baiying were going to the palace, bringing a lot of things with them.

When she went out, she happened to run into Prince of Yan Li Zeqi and Eunuch Xia. Jiang was so scared that her face turned blue. She trembled as she bowed to Mu Baiying: "Greetings, His Royal Highness Prince of Yan!"

Li Zeqi ignored Jiang's mother and daughter and walked in with a wave of his sleeves.

"Oh, Madam Mu is going to the palace to see the Empress Dowager again?" Eunuch Xia deliberately dragged out the word "again" and made his tone sarcastic to the extreme.

Jiang was most afraid of Eunuch Xia. She couldn't afford to offend him, but she had to deal with him with a smile: "Hello, Eunuch. The Queen Mother has been ill for a long time. As her niece, I should have gone to see her a long time ago. But I was tied up with housework and couldn't get away. I only have time to go and see her now!"

"Hmph." Eunuch Xia snorted coldly and continued his sarcastic tone: "Mrs. Mu Xiang is really a busy person, even busier than Xiang Mu! Go quickly, or you will be busy again!"

After Eunuch Xia finished speaking, he threw his whisk over his shoulder and turned to walk into the Mu Mansion.

Jiang's face was so dark that it was about to burst into tears, but she had to reply: "You are right, eunuch!"

"Mother, this eunuch is so disgusting!" Mu Baiying was so angry that she gritted her teeth and wished she could eat him alive.

If Jiang hadn't stopped her and repeatedly emphasized that she should be dignified and there was no need to get angry with a eunuch, she would have spoken up long ago.

Jiang looked at Eunuch Xia's back with hatred, and tried to calm herself down. She comforted Mu Baiying, "Baiying, there's no need to get angry with a eunuch. The Empress Dowager is weak now, so you must not turn against the Emperor. Just be patient!"

"Be patient, be patient, mother. You always ask me to be patient. I had to be patient with that little bitch Mu Lanfeng, that old witch from Wutong Courtyard, and now I even have to be patient with this eunuch. How long do you want me to be patient, mother?" Mu Baiying was furious and burst into tears.

Jiang was so frightened that her face turned pale. She hurriedly covered Mu Baiying's mouth and said, "My little ancestor, please keep your voice down. You have never been a person who loses your temper. I know you are wronged. You can vent your anger however you want when you go back!"

What would happen if some nosy person heard this?

When Mu Baiying was covered by Jiang's hand, her stomach churned and she felt so uncomfortable and nauseous that she vomited several times before she calmed down.

"What's wrong?" Jiang asked hurriedly with concern.

Mu Baiying looked pale, and she kept stroking her chest, saying weakly, "It's okay, maybe I ate something wrong last night and got an upset stomach!"

Jiang saw that Mu Baiying was in such a bad condition that she couldn't enter the palace. "Ziyuan, help the young lady back and get a doctor to take a good look at her!"

"Yes, ma'am," Zi Yuan responded and stepped forward to support Mu Baiying.

"Mother, I'm fine. There's no need to call a doctor. I'll just go back and have some rest. But you should come back earlier after seeing the Queen Mother!" Mu Baiying seemed very reluctant to call a doctor.

Jiang nodded, got into the carriage, lowered the curtains, and headed towards the palace.

"Miss, let me help you go back!" Zi Yuan said cautiously.

Zi Yuan knew the eldest girl's temper very well. She appeared dignified and considerate in front of outsiders, but she was a completely different person in front of servants like them. Her mood was unpredictable and they had to be careful with every word they said, as any word that irritated her might result in a beating.

Having followed her closely for so many years, I was often beaten by her, often in places that were not easily seen by outsiders.

Mu Baiying rolled her eyes at Ziyuan and said unhappily, "Let's go! Don't go get a doctor!"

"Yes!" Zi Yuan lowered her head and did not dare to look into Mu Baiying's eyes.

What happened earlier happened to be seen carefully by Hong Yin. She had not been back to the Mu Mansion for long, and she did not expect that the always dignified and gentle Mu Baiying would have such a face.

Hongyin thought that she must tell her daughter about this important discovery as soon as possible.

As soon as I entered Ziyunxuan, I saw Eunuch Xia sitting on the swing.

What is he here for?

Hongyin was confused. Didn’t King Yan already return?

She slowly moved forward and cautiously came to Eunuch Xia and said, "Hello, Eunuch!"

Eunuch Xia was so frightened by Hongyin that he almost fell off the swing: "I was so scared, it turned out to be Miss Hongyin, how come you walk without making any sound!"

Unexpectedly, Eunuch Xia was so easily frightened that he quickly bowed his head and admitted his mistake: "Forgive me, Eunuch, for scaring you!"

"It's okay, Miss Hongyin!" All the wrinkles on Eunuch Xia's smiling face were smoothed out.

"Since father-in-law is here, why don't you go in?" Hongyin asked puzzledly.

"You can't go, you can't go!" Eunuch Xia waved his hands.

"Is Prince Yan here?" Hong Yin asked.

Eunuch Xia nodded and said, "Miss Hongyin is really smart, she guessed it right at once!"

Hong Yin felt a little embarrassed by being praised by Eunuch Xia: "You are too kind, Eunuch!"

"In order to avoid suspicion, His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan insisted on dragging us here! Do you think we dare not come?" Eunuch Xia shrugged, looking extremely helpless.

Hong Yin said with a smile: "Thank you for your hard work, father-in-law!"

"It's not hard. We are happy to see the Fifth Miss and His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan, but..." Eunuch Xia said halfway, then touched his belly and smiled without saying anything.

"Are you hungry, father-in-law?" Hongyin asked tentatively.

This old eunuch is a foodie. He is only thinking about food, and he speaks so helplessly!

"His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan called us so urgently that we didn't even have time to eat lunch. Just some snacks will do to fill our stomachs!" Eunuch Xia had said so much, it would be unreasonable not to give it to him.

Hong Yin secretly laughed: This old eunuch obviously came here for the snacks, yet he still speaks so aggrievedly!

"Please wait a moment, father-in-law. There are some pastries in the small kitchen. Please fill your stomach with them!"

"Thank you, Miss Hongyin!" Eunuch Xia shouted from behind.

Not long after, Hongyin came over with two plates of various cakes, including red date and yam cake, lotus root powder and osmanthus sugar cake, poria cocos cake, pea yellow, pine nut and lily cake, etc.

Eunuch Xia was drooling at the sight, and could not wait to take it from Hong Yin and start to enjoy it...
