The Adventures of the Crying Princess

Chapter 25: Old Stories in Prince Mu's Mansion

Prince Mu was still in shock. He drank a sip of tea and calmed down. "Wan'er's mother is my principal wife. I am ashamed to say that ten years ago, when you were five years old, I was drunk and went to a place I shouldn't have been.

Your mother found out about it. Wan'er's mother was very stubborn and had a big fight with me. At that time, I was young and hot-tempered and didn't give in. Later, your mother was so angry that she went to Shuiyue Temple and became a nun.

You were still young at that time, and I was angry, so I told you that your mother was dead. I thought about telling you the truth later, but I couldn't say it out of face.

As for favoring a concubine and killing his wife, that is even more nonsense. After this king, I married another wife and a concubine, but I never did anything like this."

Su Beichen bowed slightly, "I would like to ask Your Majesty a question. According to the princess, her mother passed away last year. I wonder what happened?"

Su Beichen poured a cup of tea for Prince Mu and glanced at Yuwen Ji at the end.

"That was the princess I married five years ago. Wan'er was young at the time and mistook her for her mother. She died last year due to a serious illness."

Everyone in the capital knew what Prince Mu said, but Yuwen Ji just felt something was wrong. He pretended to be angry and gossiped about the truth, "Then, how did the little princess fall into the water?"

Ten years ago, the princess fell into the water, and everyone in the capital knew about it. Yuwen Ji remembered that Princess Mu had been engaged to the prince of Prince Ying. The strange thing was that after the princess fell into the water, Prince Mu took the initiative to cancel the engagement.

Prince Mu looked at his daughter, then at Yuwen Ji, "To be honest, I am an incompetent father. That day was Wan'er's fifth birthday, and her mother went to Shuiyue Temple in anger. The child was too young to accept it and was very unhappy.

This prince was thinking of taking the children to the Half Moon Lake near the outskirts of the city to relax.

Strangely enough, there was no wind that day. But somehow, the wind suddenly started to blow when the boat reached the center of the lake. In short, everything happened too suddenly, and I was completely unprepared.

Wan'er was standing at the bow of the boat, and fell into the lake when the wind blew. Unfortunately, I am not a good swimmer, so I was delayed in saving Wan'er, causing her to suffer from a disease and regret for the rest of her life."

Yuwen Ji nodded slightly, as if to express his agreement, "It seems that this is the reason why you broke off the engagement for the princess back then. It's just that the eldest son of the Duke of Ying has suffered."

"Wan'er fell ill after being rescued. Her illness was very strange. Sometimes she was better, sometimes she was worse. Sometimes she was just like a normal person. When she was sick, she would hit and scold people.

The servants in the mansion have been hurt by her countless times, otherwise I would not have broken off the engagement, let alone locked her up."

"Then why don't you check her illness?" Su Beichen looked at Princess Mu with a hint of pity in his eyes.

"Why didn't you see her? The only thing left is to invite the imperial physician to come to the palace. But this matter concerns the reputation of the palace, so everything is done relatively secretly." Prince Mu sighed heavily, "The medicine Wan'er just mentioned is actually the decoction prescribed by the doctor. She refused to take it, so we can only make it into food."

Yuwen Ji remembered that there was a miracle doctor living in the palace. He quickly shouted to the door, "Yi Tong, go and invite the miracle doctor Guo."

Yuwen Ji and Su Beichen chatted with Prince Mu to distract the little princess. Yi Tong took advantage of her unpreparedness and took decisive action to save Bai Yimeng.

Then he clasped his fists towards the princess and Prince Mu, "Princess, I'm sorry."

This matter was originally his daughter's fault, so Prince Mu naturally did not dare to say more. Seeing Bai Yimeng's silly look, he felt a little sympathy in his heart and smiled and returned the greeting, "My daughter offended you, Your Majesty, please forgive me."

Although he knew that Long Ziyin was just a guard, he still called her "Young Master" just to give Yuwen Ji face.

A few days ago, I heard from the Minister of Justice about Yuwen Ji's "hobby". Therefore, I treated this little lover of Prince Yi with more courtesy.

Little Princess Mu didn't know why tears welled up in her eyes. She stared at Prince Mu with a slightly hateful look, "Old Deng, you have deceived so many people with your words. Now you dare to use the same old tricks again. It's really abominable."

"Wan'er, wake up. How could your father ever lie to you? Your mother is really practicing in Shuiyue Temple. If you don't believe me, your father will take you to see her right now." Prince Mu was so anxious that his face turned red.

At this time, Doctor Guo came over with a medicine box on his back. After paying his respects, he came to Yuwen Ji's side and asked, "What do you want, Your Majesty?"

"It's a pity to invite you here so late. I have a patient here and I want you to take a look." Yuwen Ji pointed at Princess Mu.

Doctor Guo nodded slightly and came to the princess' side. "Princess, would you allow me to treat you?"

Princess Mu refused and turned her head away, "I'm not sick, go away."

Su Beichen and Yuwen Ji were reluctant to use force, so they looked at King Mu together. King Mu smiled awkwardly, rubbing his hands together.

Bai Yimeng regained his freedom, secretly holding back his anger, and stepped forward to capture the man. He was caught on purpose just now, and this time he was fighting back, which could be considered revenge.

"I was careless when I was caught by you just now. I can't let you go now." They were all pretending to be crazy, and no one was smarter than the other.

Yuwen Ji was shocked and couldn't help but look at Su Beichen. Su Beichen had a confused look on his face, staring at everything in front of him in amazement.

Doctor Guo didn't understand the twists and turns, so he took out a handkerchief and checked the princess's pulse. "Mr. Long, please put your arm away. I can't check her pulse."

"You are such a poor judge of skills. How come you can't put your finger into such a large area?"

That being said, Bai Yimeng still avoided him. Doctor Guo was not happy. "Come on, if you can do it, since you are the prince's guard, I won't bother with you. Otherwise... I will punch you and you will suffer."

Bai Yimeng rolled his eyes and looked like he didn't want to talk to her.

"His mind...is damaged, and it doesn't look like a new illness. He seems to be controlled by drugs..." Bai Yimeng said a lot, "Old man, just prescribe the medicine according to my instructions."

Doctor Guo rolled his eyes in return, "I don't believe a fool prescribing medicine for a madman."

Doctor Guo carefully examined the patient's condition and found that what he said was exactly the same as what Bai Yimeng said. The old man became upset and looked at Bai Yimeng.

Yuwen Ji was confused, "Doctor Guo, don't argue with her. She is young, not smart, and likes to talk nonsense."

"Your Majesty, Princess Mu's illness is exactly the same as what Young Master Long described."

Bai Yimeng knows medical skills. Yuwen Ji knows it, but... when will she get better? Or is this girl just pretending to be sick?

Yuwen Ji pursed his lips, pulled Bai Yimeng to his side, and deliberately whispered, "Xiaobai, how come you are so smart? You have become a little fool, but you can still cure diseases?"

These words sounded like a threat to Bai Yimeng, as if she had just revealed some secret and was discovered.

Perhaps to cover up his guilty conscience, Bai Yimeng yawned, put on a childish look, pulled Yuwen Ji's arm and shook it, "I'm sleepy, I want to sleep, tell me a story."

Everyone was stunned. What kind of lewd words were these? The two men... The scene was so beautiful, so beautiful that I couldn't imagine it.

Especially Prince Mu, who was old and had a hard time adapting to the situation. "Prince Yi, please take care of yourself. I will take my daughter back home."

The little princess was unwilling to leave. She threw and hit, crying, "Lao Deng, you want to kill me. Let me go. I won't go with you. You are a bad person."

Su Beichen held his forehead with his hand. He had divined a fortune a few years ago, and it said that this year would be a prosperous year. Now it seems to be quite accurate. On this day, he saw a wonder that he had never seen in his first half of his life.

"Wan'er... don't run... wait for your father..." Prince Mu chased Princess An Min out of Prince Yi's mansion.

"Xiaobai, I love you so much. If possible, let's calm down, sit down and have a good talk, okay?" Yuwen Ji carried the sleeping Bai Yimeng to the couch and kissed her.
