Divine Doctor Mommy Is A True Big Shot-Chapter 10 - Yandere Princess Mother (Part 1)
Chapter 10: Chapter 10 Yandere Princess Mother (Part 1)
Beside the horse carriage of Feng Mansion, the coachman was trembling with fear.
"Miss, how should we deal with Xia Zhu's body?"
When Xia Zhu was thrown out by the Ancestral Affairs Office, she was wrapped in a straw mat, her wounds deep and bleeding incessantly, appearing lifeless.
"She's not dead yet, bring her back."
Feng Bailing noticed that Xia Zhu still had a faint breath, the knife had somehow deviated by half an inch, avoiding the vital parts.
Feng Bailing seemed thoughtful.
From a young age, the youth Dongfang Li had always sweet-talked her. He conspired with Feng Xiangxue, colluded with Feng Zhan Tang, bribed Xia Zhu, scheming her childbirth, and arranged for the annulment of her engagement in a seamless plan, trapping her like a spider web.
Could Dongfang Li, a simple-minded man, really devise all this?
The source of this c𝓸ntent is frёeweɓηovel.coɱ.
Feng Bailing decided to take Xia Zhu back to the mansion first, maybe she could get some information from her.
Outside the Ancestral Affairs Office, Dongfang Li retched violently until all the bile was out, only then did he spit out the golden ring.
He looked disheveled, dizzy in the eyes, nowhere near his usual handsome and poised appearance, which frightened Feng Zhanlian and his daughter into quickly sending him back to the Qian Residence.
The Qian Residence is where the Princes of Great Chu stayed, Emperor Yongye had nine sons, excluding the Eldest Prince and the Crown Prince who were already married, the unmarried Princes lived there.
The Seventh Prince's horse carriage rumbled along and reached the front of the Qian Residence.
The Qian Residence consists of multiple courtyards, large and small, arranged in an orderly manner in a "return" shape.
As the favored son of Noble Princess Consort Xiao, the Seventh Prince resided on the eastern side of the Qian Residence.
"Your Highness, do not worry, I will go back and discipline that unfilial daughter and have her come apologize to you."
In the carriage, Feng Zhanlian carefully apologized.
"Find that secret decree as soon as possible, as for Feng Bailing, do not touch her. I'll deal with her myself."
Dongfang Li gritted his teeth, having practiced martial arts since childhood, his physical foundation was solid and he had largely recovered. The thought of Feng Bailing made his teeth itch.
Feng Xiangxue listened, feeling slightly uncomfortable. Why did the Seventh Prince seem different today? Usually, he wouldn't even want to mention Feng Bailing.
Feng Xiangxue stole a glance at Dongfang Li, just at that moment, she saw a flash of dark light at his forehead.
She gasped softly.
"Your Highness, is that the rumored Wuji Seal on your forehead?"
The light flashed and disappeared.
Dongfang Li showed a smug expression.
"I have been concentrating on Qi recently to prepare for a breakthrough. If it weren't for the fear of leaking energy, I would have already taken action against Feng Bailing. Just a few more days, once my Gathering Seal succeeds, I will become an elite among martial artists. Even Dugu Wu will not be my match sooner or later."
Dongfang Li's face was full of pride.
With literary accreditations as Wenhua Seal and martial accolades as Wuji Seal, even for the Royal Family, becoming the scholarly champion or Martial Arts Leader is a matter of pride.
Hearing this, father and daughter complimented him further, then joyfully departed.
Dongfang Li got off the carriage, did not return to his own east courtyard, but headed towards the northwest.
Unlike the spacious and bright east courtyard, the Northwest Courtyard was a secluded little yard, desolate and without servants, not resembling a Prince's residence.
The snow in the Northwest Courtyard was swept clean, revealing pale grey stones, with a man standing at the end of the yard.
There was a cluster of bamboo and several lake stones, which also served as the only decoration in the courtyard.
The man was tall and slender, not wearing a crown, his light brown hair loosely spreading out, his silhouette in the north wind appeared somewhat desolate.
Beneath a brown cloak with golden patterns, his skin was so pale it was nearly translucent, under his light brown lashes, a pair of narrow, charming fox eyes, both veiled with a faint grey mist, with a grain-sized crimson blood mole beneath his right eye.
Hearing footsteps, his ears twitched slightly as he turned around.
"Brother, your steps are restless, and your breath is turbid. What's wrong, didn't the cancellation of the engagement go through?"
The man smiled faintly. In doing so, his sickly face bizarrely gained an unusual beauty that would captivate anyone who saw it, regardless of gender.
"Ninth, you guessed wrong this time."
Dongfang Li explained the ins and outs of the matter and recited the letter of engagement cancellation.
"Part two ways, each find joy."
Hearing the last few words, Dongfang Mosheng, the Ninth Prince of Great Chu, was startled.
"If I hadn't had someone watching her all the time, I would really suspect that this woman was possessed by Lord Wen Hua. This letter of cancellation is well-written indeed. Feng Bailing is not to be feared. Our plan has been disrupted, what should we do next?"
Dongfang Li's head ached from thinking.
"Brother, we still have two backup plans. Doctor Yang sent word that Princess Yong'an will not survive tonight, and the secret edict is still in our possession."
Dongfang Mosheng smiled, his birthmark at the corner of his eye blooming like a wild rose, vivacious and dripping with allure.
When Feng Bailing returned to Feng Mansion, the servants were stretching their necks eagerly expecting a spectacle.
The servants had seen their young lady being sent to Ancestral Affairs Office by the Seventh Prince and all were convinced that the young lady would not come out unscathed.
Instead, they saw Xia Zhu covered in blood, making all the servants shiver.
"This is what happens to those who betray their master. Ancestral Affairs Office has approved my divorce with the Seventh Prince. Starting tomorrow, I will take charge of the affairs of Princess' Mansion. If anyone dares betray me, they'll end up like Xia Zhu."
Feng Bailing spoke coldly, ordering people to throw Xia Zhu into the woodshed, forbidding any water or medical treatment.
The servants outwardly expressed respect but inwardly scorned it, especially the old servants of Zhanlian and the confidants of Xiangxue.
"I will go see my mother."
As the day wore on, Feng Bailing remembered she had not yet paid her respects to her mother, Princess Yong'an, throughout the day.
Although Feng Bailing was the eldest daughter of Princess Yong'an, she had been raised by Aunt Xue since childhood.
Aunt Xue had a sweet mouth and knew how to pamper children. She was always respondent to Feng Bailing's needs, unlike Princess Yong'an who came from the Imperial Palace and was rigid and stern, rarely smiling, and very strict with the siblings.
Over time, both siblings felt distant from Princess Yong'an.
Uncle Wang, the housekeeper, did not expect Feng Bailing to suddenly want to visit the princess.
When Feng Bailing arrived at the inner courtyard of the Princess' Mansion, she discovered Princess Yong'an's quarters had been moved to the west wing.
"Mother is ill, who allowed her to be moved to the chilly west wing?"
Feng Bailing's brow furrowed even tighter.
"Miss, Madam said that the princess enjoys tranquility. The west side is quieter and more suitable for recovery, so they moved her from the original east wing to make room for the second master's family. Coincidentally, the second master's family and Aunt Xue have accompanied Madam to pay tribute outside the city."
As Uncle Wang spoke, he led Feng Bailing towards the west wing.
Inside the west wing, a stove was still burning, making it stuffy and hot, and the air was damp with the smell of herbal medicine.
Seeing Feng Bailing enter, the nannies and maids in the room all bowed their heads and waited silently at the side.
Feng Bailing noticed that several nannies and maids had swollen, red eyes.
The sight of Dongfang Lianhua on the sickbed made Feng Bailing's heart shake.
"Nanny Gui, it's time for the princess to take her medicine."
Uncle Wang instructed the attending nanny to step forward and administer the medicine.
As the medicine was brought over, Feng Bailing raised a hand and with a slap, overturned the medicine bowl.
