Stunning Poisonous Doctor Princess

Chapter 933 Ambition

“Deal with it well. Don’t leave any traces.”

When Baili Wuchen took a deep breath, he felt pain in his lungs because the air on a snowy night was too cold.

He looked at Ningqing Hall’s gate with a complicated expression in his single eye. After a rare moment of hesitation, he pushed the door open and entered the yard.

Unlike the mess outside, Ningqing Hall’s courtyard was quiet, and the snow had not been trodden on.

A three-meter-wide path was cleared out, leading straight to the main hall.

“Wait here.”

Baili Wuchen left the twelve elite soldiers behind and walked toward the main hall step by step.

Before he entered, he smelt the fragrance of plum blossoms.

He subconsciously searched for the source of the fragrance and saw the red plum blossoms blooming outside the window of the main hall.

He then stood in situ in a daze. Most of the courtyards in the capital city had plum trees, but none of them put forth their blossoms now.

“Lord Baili, you seem in a good mood now. I didn’t expect you to admire the plum blossoms here.”

When the teasing voice suddenly came from behind him, his body trembled slightly and many emotions flashed across his single eye. In the end, he calmed down.

“Good evening, Your Highness.”

At the entrance of the main hall stood Lin Mengya in a fiery-red fox-fur cloak. And she was looking into his eyes with a smile on her lips.

Hearing Baili Wuchen calling her Your Highness, she merely raised her eyebrows slightly.

She knew Baili Wuchen had been prejudiced against her. But now, he must have accepted her sincerely.

As the saying went, some friendships grew from an exchange of blows.

“There’s no need to stand on ceremony. Please come in.”

She had thought it would be a little awkward for them to meet.

After all, she had blinded him in person. It was her fault no matter whether he had really fallen out with Long Tianyu or had been just acting.

So, she would not shirk her responsibility.

Baili Wuchen followed Lin Mengya into the main hall. There was a refreshing medicinal smell instead of the sweet smell of incense inside.

He knew she was a special woman, but it was the first time that he had smelt such a medicinal fragrance.

Long Tianyu had always been sharp-eyed.

“Good evening, Your Grace.”

On the bed, the elegantly dressed Imperial Noble Consort looked expectantly at Baili Wuchen.

She knew this young man would bring the news about her son from outside.

“You don’t have to be so polite. Please sit down.”

Although Lin Mengya and her mother-in-law were not related by blood, they were both very straightforward and unconstrained.

“What’s the situation outside? Did Prince Yu ask you to send us any message?”

Baili Wuchen was a little surprised at Lin Mengya’s questions. He had thought she would ask if Prince Yu was injured first.

Seeing Baili Wuchen’s expression, Lin Mengya smiled faintly.

“He will not be injured. Because he does not want to make me sad.”

She and Long Tianyu understood each other, so some words were unnecessary for them.

Baili Wuchen calmed himself down and got back to the business.

“In the name of the Crown Prince, I went to negotiate with those people of the Political Cabinet. They have agreed to support him to become the Emperor at critical moments.”

The Political Cabinet was an organization that only a few members of the royal family knew about and was the Crown Prince’s last resort.

The founding emperor of Dajin had gotten the throne by force, so his descendants had often suffered from rebellions during the changes of the rulers.

Therefore, after an emperor had taken the throne with the full support of the aristocratic families, he had established the Political Cabinet.

The Political Cabinet consisted of eight important ministers in the imperial court. They had privileges and would enjoy wealth and prosperity for the rest of their lives.

But the people who had joined the Political Cabinet had to hide in the dark, and their family members could not become officials or join the army either, although their titles would pass by inheritance to their eldest sons.

And their function was to ensure Dajin would not fall into the hands of outsiders.

From the perspective of a modern person, Lin Mengya thought this was like taking a crocodile as a pet.

However, the emperor at that time should have wanted to turn them all into henchmen of the Long Clan and make them the royal family’s most loyal guards.

In fact, the Political Cabinet used to do as his expectations before.

However, as time went by, the leader of this organization had changed several times.

Who could endure being in the dark forever?

Therefore, they had long wanted to change the current situation but had not found the right opportunity yet.

“What is the price?”

Lin Mengya raised her eyebrows and sneered.

“The price is that after the Crown Prince ascends the throne, he will allow the children of their families under the age of 25 to become officials.”

Baili Wuchen and Lin Mengya had the same expression on their faces. That idiot was so eager to win that he did not know that what he was doing was no different from pulling the rug from under himself.

This was the difference between the Crown Prince and Prince Yu. The former had long been mesmerized by the throne, while the latter was always clear-headed.

“This is a good move for them. If they insert fresh blood into the officialdom, the Crown Prince won’t detect anything wrong for the time being. But when these young people grow up, they will fully control the officialdom. These people are ambitious, but they chose the wrong person.”

Lin Mengya sneered and shook her head. The people of the Political Cabinet might have been hiding in the dark for too long.

As soon as they saw a pinpoint light, they would try to seize the opportunity to turn the table.

They were extremely stupid!

“The emperor who founded the Political Cabinet valued them, but he also guarded against them and left room for maneuvering. I’m afraid they don’t know about it at all. It’s not good for any force to be too strong. Now, it’s time for them to reflect.”

Baili Wuchen kept silent because he had seen all these things clearly.

And Lin Mengya merely asked a few questions before she stopped dwelling on this topic.

“The Crown Prince sent you here. So, I guess he is furious and ashamed now.”

The next topic was more important for her. Her man was fighting desperately outside, so she could not sit still at the back leisurely.

She was not good at leading troops in battles, but she did not think it was a difficult thing for her to be a hostage.

“Yes! I suggested to him that he should force you to marry him on the day he ascends the throne. And he agreed with pleasure and planned to turn Imperial Noble Consort into a prostitute to take revenge for what happened today and humiliate Prince Yu.”

Baili Wuchen was cool because he had spoken frankly about such things.

But Lin Mengya and the Imperial Noble Consort were even cooler. They were not angry at all after hearing the extremely insulting words.

After all, who would quibble with a joke?

“Really? Is he going to marry me? Or is he going to take me as a concubine? I bet he wants to make me his highest-ranking imperial concubine. After all, I’m Princess Rong’an. It’s not good for him to offend me, right?”

Lin Mengya was smiling gently, but Baili Wuchen broke out in a cold sweat.

As a former member of Prince Yu’s Mansion, he had heard about and even experienced her means.

It was from then on that he had made up his mind that he would never offend her for the rest of his life although he dared to offend Prince Yu sometimes.

“Well, he is just daydreaming.”

To be honest, Baili Wuchen was looking forward to it.

After all, once Princess Yu took action, the Crown Prince would die a miserable death.

“In this case, I’ll fulfill his pipe dream. Tell him I agree. Once he ascends the throne, I’ll marry him.”

Lin Mengya did not show a ferocious expression, but a bloodthirsty look flashed across her eyes.

In a sense, she and Long Tianyu were the same.

In modern society, she had chosen to study medicine probably because only doctors could cut people with knives legally.

Of course, this was just a joke.

But Lin Mengya knew that she was never a broad-minded person.

She would fight back and take revenge on whoever had offended, humiliated, and trampled on her.

“Yes, I understand. I’ll make the arrangements right away. And I hope you can achieve success.”

Baili Wuchen had brought the news to Lin Mengya, and her cooperation was within his expectations.

Lin Mengya asked the twelve elite guards outside to come in and put the wedding clothes and accessories on the table in the main hall one by one.

The familiar wedding dress was like a red cloud.

When she had first returned to this world, what she had seen was this bewitching red.

At that time, she had just wanted to survive. But now, she was stirring up commotion in the palace.

The phoenix coronet and the wedding dress were emanating a luxurious and noble bearing.

Lin Mengya did not pay much attention to them, but the Imperial Noble Consort who had been sitting beside her took a closer look and said,

“This doesn’t seem subject to an imperial concubine’s standard, right?”

Not subject to an imperial concubine’s standard?

Hearing this, Lin Mengya turned her eyes back to the wedding dress and the coronets decorated with phoenix engravings and found it was a nine-winged golden phoenix.

And the collars and cuffs of her wedding dress were bright-yellow.

This was obviously the Empress’s wedding dress!

“That’s right. Prince Yu personally prepared them for you. He said he wants to marry you and make you his wife again.”

When Baili Wuchen spoke slowly, Lin Mengya’s face flushed.

“He is very thoughtful. Baili Wuchen, thank you for bringing them to me.”

She then reached out to gently touch the soft and smooth fabric of the wedding dress.

She was moved by Long Tianyu, and a warm current named happiness gradually flowed from her heart to her limbs and bones.

She knew what he was thinking and was trying to do.

He was promising her that he would love her forever.

“I have fulfilled my mission. Your Highness. I must go now.”

Baili Wuchen bowed to Lin Mengya and walked out of the Ningqing Hall.

All the women in the room, including Imperial Noble Consort, could not help giggling.

“Mother, please don’t laugh at me.”

Lin Mengya had never expected herself to be so thin-skinned.

She glared at her maid who had been spoiled but still failed to stop others from laughing.

She couldn’t help blaming the reckless man. It was all his fault that everyone was laughing at her now.
